    El Taco Express
    Chris L.

    You have to be pretty bold to park your taco truck just down the street from the iconic and outstanding Taqueria Sanchez. I've driven past several times, but decided today that it was time to stop by. I'm so glad I did. El Taco Express offers the standard taqueria truck fare: street tacos, burritos, tortas, etc. Most tacos are $0.99, with lengua and tripa tacking on another $0.50. They have some soft drinks, water and several varieties of Jarritos. I didn't see any mention of horchata or aqua frescos. Per my typical first visit, I ordered carnitas, barbacoa and lengua tacos. All of the meats were tender and juicy. The carnitas had a good flavor, as did the barbacoa. I added a little green sauce to the pork, and red sauce to the beef tacos. Both were better than most, and within reach of the best. And while I'm thinking of it, the pickled carrot was nicely flavored. I don't know what you do to make one pickled carrot better than others, but they need to keep doing what they're doing. What really stood out was the lengua. It was perfect, and as much as I love the lengua at Taqueria Sanchez and Taqueria El Dolar, this edges them both. The texture and taste is amazing, and is well worth the extra change. So please give this place a try. I can't imagine you would leave disappointed.

    The location is nice and has shelter.

    Best tacos, around here, the guy on the truck was very nice and friendly and patient while we were thinking on what to order.

    Great food, fast, friendly. Better than the blue truck, their asada is fatty now. I wish the mulitas had cheese and avacado.

    Surprisingly not busy on a Fri night for dinner, only 3 tables. But they sure had plenty of to-go…read moreorders. Service was prompt and friendly. One young lady server was running around behind the counter, helping the to-go station, and later helping out in the kitchen. Another lady appears to be dedicated to the to-go station. Then there were maybe 3 gentlemen working the kitchen. Hubs ordered the Grilled Shrimp Tacos and I got the Salad Bowl with Grilled Shrimp. We like it that they use red cabbage for the crunch. And I always get their Horchata to cut through the heat. Hanging tv's were on, but not sure what was playing. Mexican music in the background. Good quick in and out.

    I've been to the food truck a few times and finally had a chance to visit their new location…read more It's a nice space inside, even including a bar for cocktails if you want. We came early and the frozen margaritas weren't ready yet, but the regular strawberry margarita was very delicious. I ordered the nachos and my friend got the tacos. I've has the tacos many times and already know how delicious and flavourful they are, I was ready to try something new. I enjoyed the nachos as well. Full of flavor and they give you lots of toppings. The service was great, we were there during lunch, so it wasn't very crowded, but she was still very attentive and checked on us often. I really enjoy this location and it's the perfect spot for family dinner, date night or out with friends.
