My wife discovered an authentic Mexican Food restaurant in the city of Leander. She has been on a…read moresearch for the best "Carne Asada burrito" she can find. Not just another steak burrito, but one made "Baja Style", with Ranchero meat or similar. We've found something that comes close at Aparicio's. It's not your ordinary menu choices of ground beef, pork and chicken. First of all, customers waiting in line were raving to their friends on how amazing the food is. The quality, the service and the portion sizes. Taco prices are a bit higher than your average taco stand, but this is not a "hole in the wall" dive joint. The owners have made your experience here unique in the decor, yet the food served on homemade tortillas lets you know you're being blessed in the kitchen, by someone who cares. When we arrived we told them this was our first time. The host spoke to someone, and out from the kitchen comes a sample tray with five cups of food to sample. Carne Asada, chicken, pastor, chorizo and Pableno Pepper sauce. We ordered the Cali Burritto. A Carne Asada burrito with fries, pico, and other fixings. It was huge, even after cut in half. I opted for two tacos, pastor which came with a slice of grilled pineapple and Chorizo. Both served on hand made flour tortillas and they were great. We also got an order of cheese fries. A small bowl of McDonald's size fries with shredded cheese and a light cheese sauce melted on top. It was great, paired with a homemade jalapeño ranch sauce. Finished with a fresh strawberry horchata drink in a large mason jar and a mango melon drink. 6:50 each, yet well worth the cost. So if you're looking for something other than Tex-Mex fusion Mexican food, or if you're missing tasting real authentic Mexican food without having to drive to San Antonio, then drive on over to Leander. Once you pull into the lot, right of Smoky MO's just behind the jewelry shop. Enjoy! Michael C. - Georgetown, Tx.

Best meaty, flavorful barbacoa tacos I've had! Optional toppings of fresh chopped onion and cilantro is the perfect amount. (I always order two, on flour tortillas) They serve it on a PLATE, with slices of fresh RADISH, GRILLED onions, a whole, roasted spicy hot PEPPER, a tasty whole mini POTATO,, fresh made red, green (or both!) SALSA , and a LIME wedge! These are good sized tacos, filled with tender beef. Not overly salted, or greasy, or dripping in orange oil or filled with nasty gristle. Just lovely, perfectly seasoned meat. We also order egg and bacon and egg and potato. Always consistent, fresh and fast. Keep this food truck in business! Order from them! We call in our order ahead, and then go pick it up. Never had a wrong order! They have a, cute, well cared for food truck, friendly staff, the outdoor area for eating/waiting is clean, and an assigned parking area (unpaved) is to the right. *(Try not to use the car wash they share the lot with for parking.) **FYI- Their Cedar Park location has fantastic carne guidsada but they don't offer it in Leander. Only change I'd suggest is to have both at both locations!

He waited in the drive thru behind someone for 25 minutes. What is happening with your service? A few things that are CONSISTENTLY terrible and don't make sense: 1. He asks for both kinds of red salsa - spicy and mild. You keep giving him mild only. He drives away and it's wrong. Or, today, he had to knock and honk to get your attention to give him the right kinds. (You gave him 8 green salsas to start with, NO RED was in his original bag.) 2. Asked for cheese on all four bacon and egg tacos. Only got cheese on 2. Wtf. 3. Im adding pictures of the sausage and egg tacos that are FLAT compared to the other tacos. The other tacos were pretty full. 4. Long waits most of the time. Get your stuff together, El Patron.

Looked amazing. I ordered two ground beef tacos, one corn and one flour and the chicken enchilada salad. Wasn't sure what I was going to get so I thought I would try a couple things that I knew were safe. The corn tortilla tacos were not crispy, which is what I was hoping for so I would just stick with the flower next time Since I had my order to go. I was able to put that taco on my flat griddle and crisp it up a bit. The salad was definitely not what I was expecting. I thought it would be chicken with onions and peppers or something along the lines. I believe it said it had onions on the menu. However, it was a great salad. It had chicken, which was really good tomatoes and avocado. Very tasty but I could've use some cilantro or something on there so I dumped the green salsa on top and everything was delicious. Inside I am so happy to see they have a great beer selection! So I will be going back for those chips, salsa and a beer. My next visit. The place is small inside but clean the people inside were very nice and I think it's going to be a great place for me to go and catch up on my Spanish again because I am super rusty.

We were actually there just last Friday with our son and received excellent service and good food, even though it was late. Unfortunately, our visit a few days later was completely different. From the moment we walked in, our server was rude, dismissive, and appeared irritated with us. I asked a simple question about a specific menu item, and her response was unnecessarily rude. I told her that was what I wanted, and we continued with our order. My husband was not very hungry, so he ordered only an appetizer. The server's attitude made it clear that she was displeased with this. The situation became even more disappointing when we were paying. My husband asked a simple and reasonable question about whether the restaurant offered a military discount because he is retired military. Instead of answering the question, the server took the check and walked away. She did not say yes, no, or provide any explanation. I then watched her speak to another employee about the request while looking toward our table. When she returned with the new check, she dropped it on the table without saying a word and walked away. This was not simply a case of slow service or a misunderstanding. We were treated with a level of rudeness and disrespect that was completely unnecessary. A customer asking about a menu item or a military discount should not be treated as an inconvenience. What makes this experience particularly disappointing is that we have been coming to Guaco Taco for years and have had good experiences in the past. We know the restaurant is capable of providing good food and good service because we experienced it just days before this visit. Unfortunately, this particular visit left a very bad impression. We will think twice before returning, because regardless of how good the food may be, customers should not have to tolerate being treated disrespectfully.
