    Delicious authentic tacos with friendly service. Food truck where sweet lady comes out and takes your order. The meats are well-seasoned and not dry. Lengua is always my go-to meat, but their barbacoa is money too. The tortillas are tasty and have a nice crispy to it as well. And the green salsa is honestly one of the best salsas I've had. Great flavor with mild heat. The red salsa has lots of heat so eat at your own risk! Overall, this food truck is a place I'm willing to make a drive for from the other side of Lexington. Highly recommend!

    El Buen Taco, a great addition to the Lexington food scene. The area is a little sketchy, but the people are very nice and helpful.

    El Buen Taco is in front of the Imperial Liquors on Village Dr. It should definitely be a go-to taco spot for anyone. They serve tacos and tortas with tacos under $2 and tortas around $6. I got one taco each of tripa, al pastor and carne asada. Tripa - best I've had, I like tripa to be crispy but still needs to be a little chewy, this was great with the (HOT, be warned) red sauce. Carne Asada - wasn't my favorite or best carne asada I've had, but on par with most Mexican places and trucks. It was much improved with the delicious, and mild, green sauce. Al Pastor - it isn't "del trompo" which is to say not cut from the stand up rotisserie also used to grill gyro meat. But it's marinated like normal al pastor and still good all the same. This one was nice with a mix of green and red sauces. Both sauces are great and have a nice smoky flavor as well. All in all El Buen Taco is very good! It's clean, with friendly service and awesome food. I highly recommend this taco truck!

    Discovered this taco truck the other day and already went back for seconds. The food is delicious and service is amazing! You don't even have to get out of your car to order.

    This gem reminds of taco trucks in California. The real deal. The only downside is I should've bought more tacos.

    Some of the best tacos in Lexington at a very small and unassuming food trailer. Staff are also very friendly!

    My family and I recently decided to try La Taquiza and we placed a carry out order on our way home…read morefrom an event. I struggled to find a rating for this restaurant and am settling on a three mainly because we had a few issues with our order and it was pretty pricey for a Mexican dinner. For our very hungry family of four, we ordered empanadas, flautas, the dip Trio, a cheese quesadilla, and two chimichangas. The dip trio was great - the guacamole was incredible! The empanadas were delicious, but had to wrong fillings. The flautas were rolled with very little filling and were mostly fried tortilla - but the middle bites with the toppings were quite tasty. The cheese quesadilla came with chicken, so my picky child wouldn't eat it - and after tasting it, I found the chicken to have a burnt smoky taste that almost tasted like cigarette smoke (we don't smoke so it wasn't from our car ride or our home). Both the chimichangas were made with the wrong fillings, and one had the same chicken taste as the quesadilla. The other was ok, but we don't particularly love pork. Had it been beef, it would have been incredible because the sauce and red onions were fabulous toppings. We may try again, but our neighborhood spot is about half the price and always correct. The staff at pickup was very friendly and all smiles, qualities I really appreciate!

    Incredibly delicious food, and the freshest, most authentic Mexican you will find in Lexington.
