    Visited Tacos Tierra Caliente while in Houston. Timing is funny sometimes. I had just been chatting…read morewith Gretel about breakfast tacos the day we landed in Houston -- and breakfast tacos are one of my favourite things about visiting Texas. We pulled up to this food truck and, while placing our order, I instantly had the feeling that this crew knew exactly what they were doing. That impression proved to be spot on as soon as I took my first bite. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with the kind of simple, honest ingredients that make great breakfast tacos so satisfying. No gimmicks, no unnecessary fuss -- just well-executed food that delivers exactly what you're hoping for. The service was efficient, the operation ran smoothly, and it was easy to see why there was a steady stream of customers. Overall, an excellent breakfast taco stop and exactly the kind of local experience I look for when I'm in Houston. Saluti.

Luckily, this spot takes both card and cash! I got the small beef quesadilla, and it was loaded with cheese. The small quesadilla was $5.50, and it was pretty decently sized for a small. They have salsa set out at the counter, so you can pack as much as you like. The red salsa was smoky and SPICY. Very tasty if you like spice I see a lot of great reviews about this place. I would like to try their other tacos and give a more detailed review. I will be back! but for sure the quesadilla was a hit for me

    Came here because my BF wanted to show me what his late nights at Rice were like after a few beers…read more I was tempted to order more than just the hot dog, but we had a heavy lunch. I swear the Bulgogi Fries were screaming my name, though. Yoyo's Hotdog - Yoyo--YO. This thing slaps. I definitely craved a Coke or a beer while eating this because that salt kicks your taste buds' *ss. The caramelized onions paired with the crunchy onions were a double whammy that could topple a few hot dog title holders. The real winner, though, was the sauce--definitely something Asian-inspired. But hey, I'm running on five hours of sleep, and that's the best my smooth brain could come up with to describe the experience. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

I got their famous hotdog with spicy mayo, french onion, sautéed onions, and hot sauce. (That's how it comes standard) don't get me wrong it's definitely a lot going on from the flavors and the messiness of the dog, but the flavors balance out very well and the all beef hot dog is delicious. There's no spice from the mayo or hot sauce so if you don't like spice you'll be fine. I also tried their bulgogi fries which came with bulgogi meat, jalepenos, cheese and cilantro. My first reaction was it was delicious but it wouldn't be something I would get again, but after I kept eating it I realized this is actually really good and now when I go back I'll definitely try it again. Overall I definitely recommend this place to visitors or even locals

    The taqueria cart / truck scene in Houston is among the city's most ubiquitous food options, which…read moremight be why Taqueria Tacambaro is both popular and overlooked at the same time. Located primarily near the parking lot of the Houston Farmer's Market, they're a solid destination for street side Mexican without the pretension. Tacos isn't the the only barometer, but it's a way to start. Admittedly I'm not a huge fan of the shredded lettuce with tacos (#1) but the meats are almost always the star of the show. I'm pleased to see that they utilize a number of beef cuts from the Houston-centric fajita (#2), asada, and even bistec. The latter was a tad saltier than I would have liked, which was really more of a cecina (salted). I don't have high opinions on the chicken (pollo) and pork (pastor), which I find to be some of the most boring choices on the menu. What Tacambaro really excels at is the rest of the parts: tripa (tripe), lengua (tongue), chicharron (rinds), buche (belly) and mollejas (sweetbreads). The latter was the real surprise and I can see why so many locals would want to come here for it. The mollejas are crispy, delightful, and full of flavor. With their tortillas and a little kick of the salsa, I can see how along with chicharron and lengua can become a specialty place in a hurry. It's not all rosas in this cart. Sometimes they're a bit in a rush and a lot of times the cart isn't actually around during its open hours. While it's supposedly open till 3pm, I've seen it gone just after lunch time. Even when it it is open, some of those choices are sold out in addition to some of the most expensive. Tacos are not the end-all, but I do appreciate their versatility with creating tortas, gorditas, flautas, and quesadillas. It's a cash only business to my knowledge and there are ATMs in the market, as well as places to sit. I would always make the effort to patronize Tacambaro, and hope any more do. __________ (#1) Tacos dorado? Fine. Maiz taco that's barely grilled? Eh. (#2) Native Houstonian, please explain why "fajitas" are on every taco truck please. I beg of you.

Just know it's cash only venue. I saw the sign on the truck that also uses Zelle. It is a food truck that does have some picnic tables to eat your food there but I usually take it to go. Luckily there's a convenience store if you want a drink. This is my go to place when I'm craving tacos and they never disappoint me. You'll enjoy it!

    This was on my list for a while. Finally stopped here early December on a Tuesday for some tacos…read moreand went with a variety of meats. While the tacos and quesadillas are small, they pack a huge punch in terms of flavor and taste. There's no bad protein they serve, all are delicious in those corn tortillas with the onions and cilantro packed in. Drizzle it with that green salsa and squeeze that lime to take it to another level. Favorite proteins are the trompo, barbacoa, campechanos, boss, and tripa. The quesadillas are basically the tacos with melted cheese; worth paying the extra 50 cents for it. I enjoyed the tacos so much I came back every day while I was in the area. And I'll keep coming back whenever I'm in the vacinity. Cash only, they are packed nicely in small paper trays and wrapped well. Near a gas station so you can use the ATM there if you are cashless. Well worth it, added to the rotation!

I…read morelive no where close to this area but I may have to take a quick drive just to indulge in these tender morsels. I ordered El Pastor (pork) and Barbacoa (shredded beef) tacos with the fixings (pico,cilantro,lime juice). The meat was so juicy and flavorful and the order came up super quick, I Only waited about 3 minutes. They normally come on a corn tortilla but there were an option for flour with an extra cost. I love when food is just good food sometimes. When your hungry and want to be satisfied you don't need all the glitter and lights, just well seasoned and succulent food to suppress your hunger monster inside. This is such a place that delivers all you need and more. They had other items like quesadillas, burritos, frito pies, etc, but I would definitely recommend the tacos!!!

My fav is the barbacoa, but I have had all of the flavors, in one drunken sitting. The service is fast and they know how to put up with drunks. The green spicy sauce is where it's at. Don't try to write a review while you're drunk.
