Seeing the illustrious Shannon B. create a bookmark for the somewhat nondescript La Fogata Tacos…read moretrailer on a hot August morning piqued my interest. My checkin history is littered with plenty of places with 'Taco' in the name. I've made more runs to the border than I'm prepared to admit. So I thought, what the heck! To repay Shannon for planting that seed, I asked if she would have a chance to catch lunch there. So, off we went to Burnet, just south of 183, in front of the self-service carwash on the east side of the road. Being a cheapskate at heart, I couldn't pass up a chance for a cheap breakfast taco. She serves them all day, but they go up by like a quarter at noon. An uninspiring chorizo and egg taco at a sit-down 'tacqueria' the day before left me with a craving. So I order her chorizo (so full of flavor it put the previous day's version to shame), as well as a Sope (which I was surprised to find out does NOT actually mean "soup", and is, in fact like a deep-dish chalupa). Shannon orders the Enchiladas Potosinas, which don't at all look like what we usually think of as enchiladas. Instead, I believe it roughly translates to "These taste so good, how can there be so many of them on my plate for such a good price?!?!" I took my drink choice even more old school: Jarritos de Piña, por favor! All in all, great eats all the way around. The lady who runs the truck seems genuinely concerned that we enjoyed our meal there. Only one picnic table, so more a a place to pick up from than dine at. Shannon assures me the salsas were good, but I already had plenty of spicy chicharron goodness on my sope. We didn't see a place to recycle, so we took our empties with us, pleased with the meal we had at La Fogata Tacos.

They have an extensive offering of breakfast tacos for $1.25/each in the morning and $1.50/each after noon. I order 2 tacos, 1 - Carnitas and 1 - Al Pastor, both on Corn. The rest of the tacos are between $1.75 and $2.50 and they also have some other Mexican dishes. Two tacos and $3.75 later I leave with my delectable morsels of heaven complete with onions and light cilantro. They are wrapped in foil in a brown paper bag. Driving home with the dogs, I could not resist the smell, nor could the dogs as they were fixated on every bite I took. The carnitas were nice, tender and juicy. They had a nice seasoning and were pretty impressive. The Al Pastor was also good. It had a nice red color. The pork was not as moist as in the carnitas, but I am not certain Al Pastor is a braised meat like carnitas. The seasoning was flavorful. The corn tortillas held up (a big plus for me). Needless to say, they did not last long. And they were mine, all mine. So sorry to the pups. She gave me salsa, but I never ever opened it. They really didn't need it either. It is one thing to drive and eat tacos, it is another with sauce. Sauce which usually ends up on my shirt. La Fogata has great tacos and they are perfectly priced. I know I will be stopping by next time I am in the hood.

You walk up and pay for your food and then wait around aimlessly for them to call out your order. Gotta stay close by because they don't have a microphone system. After you get your tacos, it's off the the condiment bar. There, you take your pick of onions, cilantro, limes, and radish. Plus the classic red and green salsas! Then off the sea of picnic tables, that are surprisingly well lit, even into the wee hours of the morn! Then it's off to chow town you go, because these tacos are salty and delicious! I highly recommend the lengua! They are moist and not chewy, cooked to perfection. The name doesn't lie, these tacos are Los mejores! The Best!!!

When I got home I opened it up and it looked nothing like what was advertised on Facebook. It was a very thin, there was barely any meat in it at all, and it was filled with all kinds of stuff that was not pictured on their Facebook post of these giant burritos. I must say the little bit of al pastor that was on the burrito tasted great. I don't know if I'll go back because I can't really be too disappointed, I mean the burrito was only $6. I just wanted what was pictured online.

Happened upon this truck next to the Holiday Inn…read more First things first, the sauce for the tacos is to die for...literally! It is tasty, but probably the hottest thing I've ever put into my mouth and I've traveled the world trying many different local foods. OMG, I was sweating and had no liquid with my order. The taco, however, was very tasty and like others have written, the tortilla is awesome. $4 for 2 fajita beef street tacos, à la carte, is a fair price. The menu is in Spanish only and the girl working the truck knew almost no English. So, asking my usual, "What's the best thing you have and what do people come back for to eat?" got a blank stare. 2 small, tasty tacos it was and I was pleased. I'd do it again, WITHOUT the sauce! It was a bummer that I put the sauce all over my first taco, but I ate it anyway. I'll pay for it later. Lastly, a note about the sauce would help, but there may even be one that I can't read. Great food truck! Yum! BTW, cash only

Honestly these might be the best tacos al vapor I've ever had (at least top 3). We also had a…read moreregular lengua and a campechana taco but do not leave without at least one of their specialties. The food truck has outdoor seating so on a nice day you can order and eat right there but it was raining the day we went so we ate in the car lol. The tortillas hold up to the cooking process (in a lot of other places they crack or break apart when you pick them up) and both the green and red salsas are excellent (slight kick and lots of flavor). The tacos are between $2 and $2.50 but the money move is to get one of their combos - $9.99 for 5 you pick and less than $8 for one of each flavor (that's around $1.50 per taco!) The mixed combo is the way to go because every filling is a banger: frijoles, potatoes w chorizo, chicharron, deshebrada (beef), and rajas. I usually don't like deshabrada as much because it can get dry but here the meat is juicy and full of flavor. The chicharron is excellent as well. But the really surprise was the rajas, which were amazing - poblano peppers w cheese and potato. The flavor in that taco was incredibly nuanced and the green salsa puts it over the top. Regios al Vapor is a great place for a cheap and simple meal - highly recommend!

When I…read morefirst came to this truck I had an unpleasant experience with some likely-expired cheese in a breakfast burrito. I came with my wife on a Saturday evening, probably around 7 PM. This truck is located among 3-4 other trucks with a covered patio with bench seating. We would probably have eaten there had it not been so hot outside!! Service was great and the young man inside the truck was nice and helpful. I was craving a quesadilla so I ordered one with carnitas. They asked if I wanted it with the fat or not--I knew it would be more delicious with it, so I said yes to keeping it. I don't regret it!!! The quesadilla was so good and the carnitas were tender and moist as they should be. I was happy to have 3 well-sized slices of it--great and generous portioning. It came with a side of sour cream and chopped tomatoes. We also ordered a side of rice--not the best rice I've ever had, it was pretty bland in flavoring that day and not as soft as I would have liked, still ate it though! I'm really happy that I had a better experience this time around. I'll definitely be back to try more off their menu!!

There are a few benches to sit from and the taco truck is right off the I-35 and Rundberg. I would caution your surroundings depending on the time of day you come. I came later at night after work and noticed a few activities that warranted my guard being up. Absolutely love this taco truck and will be back!
