Sometimes you just need a Fuel City taco or three, and for us that day was today! I had a carne Al pastor, barbacoa, and Picadillo taco, and my dining companion has a beef fajita and barbacoa taco with a small elote. Each item was of course muy delicioso! Fuel City's barbacoa is so tender, slightly smoky, and comforting - it's a go-to for me, the best in Dallas. Ditto the Picadillo - never bland, always perfectly seasoned - simple and awesome. 5 when you gotta have a great taco, come to Fuel City stars read more

This gas station sells some of the best tacos I've ever had. I only tried the carne asada, but they were delicious!!

Excellent store - fuel buying experience is 5 stars, clean well maintained facility, tacos are quick and easy meal on the go.

If you're looking for late night tacos then look no further. This is a walk up, order and go spot. I love their barbacoa tacos!!! I usually get about 6 and my fiancé gets a mix of chicken and pork and loves them too. The only thing I suggest is ask for light onions because they PILE them on so HEAVY and it's a big much. Highly recommend! read more

I have been coming to Fuel City since it opened up in Mesquite yrs ago. I use the car wash all the time. When Juan was the manager and a couple of others if you had anything wrong, they were glad to correct it. I went in last Friday and had my car washed .... It was the best in a long time lots of rainbow color soap came out, all the lights came on so that you know what you're getting. Many times slightly, they do not pre-wash around the car and when you come out, there is still bug on your windshield on the hood of your car and the back of my SUV is dirty. On 3/25 I came in with a witness in my car to have a car wash. I am a monthly member of the top line car wash. As we went through, there was no soap and no lights came on. Today it was like I had an express car wash for seven dollars. Ridiculous and wasn't happy so I drove back around and went to talk to the young man working in the bay. He got Anthony (a young L/M) Who identified himself as an assistant manager, who was very rude, wanted to argue with anything I said, he was very short with me, and what's not listening to me This is unprofessional, and I will not be talked to like this young man did. When I ask if Jennifer was at work today, he told me I would have to talk to Dominique, but he was going to call her which he did and that they were gonna look at the cameras and that I could not have another car wash,. He stated he was told that I causes problems cause problems. I find this very offensive and it is not true but when there is a problem with the car wash, I have always let someone know.... I am a senior citizen and I will not be talked down to buy this young man or any employee. I have the monthly cost taken out by my credit card for the top unlimited car wash every month. Anthony told me I could not have another car wash today ????? Why Finally, they sent me through again...... this time the rainbow soap came on and all the lights on the side showing what I was getting was on . I have always been polite and taken care of the guys who does the wheels or wipes the car off; I always tip them... Anthony was rude, cocky, unprofessional. He contradicted anything I said or Bianca. He even corrected me when I told him I did not get the rainbow soap that had colors, yellow pink blue purple - he stopped me and said there was no yellow in there; really this young man has no Customer Service training . **He told me that Jennifer did not work....i have talked to Jennifer previously....there is was only Dominique. I tried calling the Mesquite location, telephone number. It just rang off the wall no answer and then I called to the Fuel City downtown. Met a nice young woman who took my phone number down to pass it on to get her manager to have someone contact me. I was pissed and will not be done like I was today so I went around and had Bianca go in the store to see if Jennifer or Dominique was there and could come talk to me.,,(I didn't get out myself because I have had hip problems and have used a cane at times). She talked to a clerk by the name of Riley, who said Jennifer was in a meeting and that the manager of the car wash was not there. Would be back Wednesday. I wrote a note and ask Jennifer or Dominique or anyone of the management team to give me a call. No return call or voicemail. There are several employees that are good & friendly. They know me. Any management team can talk to the older black man that knows me very well and if he waits on me or is around my car is always cordial and nice and the older Latin man who usually does the wheels is always nice I would appreciate if someone from management, and I don't care if it's Corporate Fuel City office to return my call to discuss this matter. This young man, Anthony has no regard for an older citizen, nor does he have the skills to be in management....he cannot listen & have a Customer Service conversation without interrupting and putting the customer down; as he did me today. I am very disappointed. read more

Tacos were a bit expensive for just 4, but it did indeed hit the spot and it was made with speed. Juicy and fresh chicken corn tortilla tacos. read more

DONT DO IT!!!! If you're not planning on getting the most expensive wash, it's absolutely a waste of money. Ignorant and rude staff and management. What good does it do to get a car wash if you're still leaving with a dirty car. read more

Just came for the tacos! They never disappoint! I tried the elote and it was not good. My only gripe with this place is that they don't cards. Cash only! Smh read more

Fuel City - Mesquite - Beef fajitas tacos - Gas Stations Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

1st Visit: 2 pastor & 2 barboca tacos 2nd Visit: 3 barboca & 2 pastor tacos. The tacos have been fresh & not skimped on in regards to meat & toppings. The green & red sauce on the side is a bit spicy but a nice touch for the tacos. Maybe next time I'll give the elote a try but we will see. However, I do think the pricing for the tacos should be cheaper they aren't just all of that for almost $2. Another note, I always heard Fuel City is packed on weekend nights but the times I've went they weren't packed at all. Furthermore, anyone who is new to Dallas or just visiting, its quite normal to hear people talking about Fuel City. Of course everyone has mixed reviews, as for my self Fuel City hasn't disappointed me. I don't live in the area so it won't be a usual go-to spot but until I find a better place, I'll venture over when in the area. read more

I'm not the gas station restaurant type, but the tacos were authentic and flavorful. The beef taco on corn tortilla with cilantro and onion was super tasty and tacos are 1.62 each, which seemed fair. There is a separate line for tacos than for elotes(corn) which is a reduction in star quality. It wasn't the most convenient placing the order. Cash only. Also, the elotes was a bit bland to me. However, it may be relative. To give you an idea, my favorite elotes is from velvet taco. read more

The time is 8:16am. This location opens at 8:00am. People are patiently waiting. Employees are here but they are closed waiting on a manager to open up. We have been waiting for over 20 min for a car wash. I wanted to start my day early. I usually have a pleasant experience at this location. However, I've wasted a lot of time this morning. It's 8:23 now and still closed. 8:28 closed and still waiting. read more

Stopped in and got 3 barbacoa and 2 chicken tacos... They only cost $1.62 each...Service is very fast.. They will literally be ready in minutes s... The chicken were good but the barbacoa were fantastic! The beef melts in your mouth and it's perfectly seasoned.. It has a wonderful flavor! I ended up going back inside and getting 2 more barbacoa and a side of corn along with some carrot cake lol... Needless to say I am now full... They have lots of choices for cakes.. The carrot cake was pretty decent... The corn, however was not good at all imo... I got the cheesey cayenne corn and it really lacked any flavor at all, and the cheese was a odd rubbery texture lol... That being said the tacos were the bomb so I'm giving this place 5 stars....just stay away from the corn... In fact run from it.. Run Forest run, lol... read more

Haven't been by fuel city to get any tacos in a while, so I figured I'd stop by. It had been a while and unfortunately the quality has gone down. Since when did they start giving you prepackaged salsa? Barbacoa was dry and lacked flavor. Hopefully I just hit it on an off day. read more

Consistent, low priced, simple and oh so tasty! Fuel City Tacos always pleases the palate and is a reliable place for street tacos. My favs are barbacoa and al pastor, but the beef, chicken and fajita are also very good. Don't feel like a taco? Opt for the huge burrito or quesadilla, which also are taste bud pleasers. Don't forget to ask for a complimentary grilled jalapeño and onions. Enjoy :-) read more

Breakfast tacos are trash!! I never had minced bacon, egg and potato taco! Would not recommend breakfast

Fuel City is fine, but the taco shop inside Fuel City is the bomb. 5 star reviews should be based on quality of food and service vs cost, and you can't beat a $1.78 taco! Fast service, tasty tacos, and they serve breakfast tacos all day! I wish there was one closer. read more

Girls at the counter inside are awful. Force you buy something - won't give cash back. Once they close the register, won't open it back up to break a $20 from atm after you pay $3.50 in atm fee read more

I had no idea there was a Fuel City in Mesquite! I was pleasantly surprised when my daughter asked to go. We got our usual beef fajita tacos with no limes. The wait was minimal and the gentleman that took my order was very pleasant. The food. It was very good. I should've asked for light fresh onions and more cooked onions. Other than that I wouldn't have changed anything. I will definitely go back to this location. read more

Fuel city is pretty good. Its always open and that's good for when you are out late and don't want fast food. Bring cash because that's all they accept. Burritos are my favorite. The Elotes is wonderful. No drive through but there is a walk up window outside and a counter inside. Drinks and chips can be purchased in the gas station. read more

For when you're in the mood for greasy late night tacos. The location is kind of set apart from everything else off of 80 and Town East so you're probably only going to be over there for the tacos. Cash only, generic ATM inside (standard transaction fees apply, so come prepared). I'm a fan of their tacos and not much else. Again it's cheap and local which is all that really matters after a night out. Outdoor covered seating but the area is kind of sketchy and there's always people trying to start a conversation with you which you might not want to engage in after it gets dark out. But I've also met some very interesting fellow taco lovers waiting for my food with some fairly interesting conversations happening in the parking lot: after-all, you can always count friends among those who hear the siren call of street tacos. I always ask for extra limes to juice'n up the meat a bit. The Elotes doesn't taste very fresh. There's always too much water and the corn tastes like it's sourced from frozen packaging (this is a common complaint). Would only go again when I'm craving late night tacos that are reasonable priced. read more

Cookie Loves Tacos, but this review is dedicated to the hidden gem inside!! The sub sandwich station and Ms. Mary !! The bread is soft as rainy day clouds!! The meat is fresh , veggies delicious and various dressings! My experience today with my husband memorable! we grabbed a sandwich for the road in between running errands. Mary was so sweet and helpful! speaking to every soul that passes by!! I wish her nothing but peace and blessings. Great addition to the staff! After unwrapping this delectable delight , gazing into the two halves like eyes! I dove in head first with out taking a picture! SmH Next time I promise!! Cause I will definitely be back! read more

Tacos are always consistently good. The stop itself is really clean and has a lot of food and drink options. I wish they wouldn't have replaced the pie shop with Caesar's Pizza. I feel like it's a step backwards. I loved getting the roasted almonds. read more

Massive Fuel City here. The elotes, the only reason I come here, are not made in carts outside like the other Fuel City, but rather inside behind an order window (like the tacos). That's fine. Still cash only. Amazing elotes, massive portions, cheap. So so good. Huge outdoor patio dining area, well covered. Lots of fuel pumps, car wash, etc. The inside has more drinks than you could share with a small town. Epic. It didn't feel as authentic or authentic as the other Fuel City (don't know which location it is as I meant to go there and my GPS routed me here instead) but I got my elotes and that was all I cared about. So yea, if this is close by you can't go wrong stopping in here for some fuel (of any type). read more

Order some tacos at Fuel City Taco when i am near the area. Tacos are good and reasonably priced, and the meat quality is ok. It was located so conveniently off I-30, 635 and HWY 80. Not as good as Taco la Baqueta, but it was good. read more

Terrible customer service getting elote. "Are you going to order", is how I was addressed. Well, of course I'm going to order, which is why I'm standing at the counter. I thanked the little punk, and he said not a word in return. He was too preoccupied checking his Apple Watch and maybe trying to give off an vibe of "cool". Dude, you're scooping corn...get over yourself. Secondly, air buds?! Certainly he isn't that important he needs to take calls on the job. If they're in for musical purposes, why? It's unprofessional. I understand I'm at a gas station, but this is a job and should be treated accordingly. I'm sure this same guy thinks he's underpaid although he appears to be doing the bare minimum and wants minimum wage increased. The elote cup is full of corn juice and I taste minimal seasoning. I'd recommend the Riverfront or Haltom City location. read more

Fuel City - Mesquite - Veggie Tacos - Gas Stations Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

Definitely a late-night taco fix type of place. Their tacos are pretty standard and their price is fairly comparable to other taco stands. However, depending on what time of day you go, I find that sometimes you get more of an onion and cilantro taco vs meat, which by the way some of their options are: barbacoa, pastor (marinated pork) and fajitas (chicken or meat). You will always find a line but staff keeps it moving fairly quickly. Don't forget your cash as they only tend to cash only orders. Fortunately, they do have an ATM inside the gas station. They have plenty of outside seating but scenery not guaranteed. read more

If you drive a fed ex truck and want a place to park your truck, this your spot. Pick a pump and leave. Easily saw a dozen fedex trucks with no driver anywhere. Actually it was eerie, like a dystopian story -- the only human at all those pumps was a lone UPS driver pumping gas into his truck. I was thinking the place was closed or some catastrophe had taken over the world of fuel city until I saw other drivers circling, wondering when one truck would be moved so they could jump in and pump gas. If the reason you're there is to buy gas, this is a don't bother sort of place. Across the street, there's no problem pumping gas at chevron. read more

Busy, busy place! Truck stop/tacos/subs/convenience store/gas station/diesel fuel isle with truck parking, and CAT Scales. Neat stop! Love this place! Very friendly service, and staff. Clean restrooms. Even a gigantic bear greets you when you walk in from the Diesel fuel isle. Kinda takes your breath away! Lol. This place has everything you want. Snacks, beer, soda, coffee, subs, and traditional street type tacos. Love the decor. Seating available inside, and bench seating outside if you want to dine in the Texas sunshine. I would highly recommend Fuel City Tacos/Truck Stop to everyone. Will definitely be back. Cool place! read more

I went to Fuel City based on a YouTube video from Texas Bucket List. TBL touted amazing tacos. And the video seemed to show generous portions. I was sadly disappointed. I got a small, drab, tasteless taco for $2.50. I got what I paid for. BTW, what the video never mentions is this is cash only, so buyer beware, leave the cc at home. I'm a little sadder, a little wiser, and again reminded that many food videos are posted by people who have no taste. read more

This location is closer to my house than the OG Downtown Dallas one. It is the exact same, it looks very similar, except that the corn is sold at the window instead of the stand. The area isn't as sketchy like the other, which is filled with shady people trying to beg for money, so that is definitely a plus. Tacos and elotes taste the same to me. & even though it is the 21st century & all, this new location is still CASH ONLY?!?!?! read more
