The green Holy Mole food truck was one of the first on the scene two or so years ago, and the fact that they are still around isn't really a surprise: Their tacos are so darn good! Let me elaborate. To start, they have excellent tortillas. They appear to almost be double layered, but when you munch into them they are soft and appropriately take second fiddle to the filling. As a friend put it, they're strange voodoo tortillas that keep the meat and veggies adequately encased but are also not too chewy at the same time. So after you get through the tortillas, your taste buds come into contact with the delicious fillings. On my most recent trip to this truck, I got three tacos: fish, chorizo and pork. The nice guy in the truck recommended the pork to me, but I actually preferred the fish and chorizo more. And each have their own distinct taste. You won't find the proteins doused in the same salsa and spices here. I also got plantains on the side with my recent order. I probably shouldn't have gotten them because the tacos left me so full, but the plantains were worth the packed tummy. And at about $10 for the order, the price can't be beat. Holy Mole is also pretty quick with getting orders out, which is definitely a plus. And these guys get around. I love that I can count on finding and eating from this truck regularly.

What a pleasant surprise! Walked over to 1st and Washington to try the sausages at Busta Grill and noticed a bright green food truck around the corner. Immediately I was confronted by the perplexing problem: Holy Mole or Busta Grill? Then the best solution became increasingly clear in my mind: eat at both! On this occasion there were four taco options: bbq beef, pork, fish and falafel. All of the tacos were $3.00 a piece and came on 6-inch tortillas. I opted for the bbq Korean beef and the pork (chorizo). The beef taco was quite tasty and was a perfect example of "fusion" food, 4-stars. The chorizo was good, but not all that special. I could probably get better chorizo tacos from Las Gorditas, 3-stars. Some of the ladies in line recommended the fish tacos, but I needed room in my stomach for an entree from Busta Grill so that will have to wait for next time. The extras included: cheese, sour cream, pickled onions, cilantro, radish, chipotle slaw and of course a lime on the side. I only opted for onions and cilantro with my pork taco, but I wish I had added some of the chipotle slaw. (Since he doesn't charge for the extras, I'll let them bump the rating up to 4-stars.) Overall Holy Mole was good and definitely left me wanting to try their other tacos. If you've had authentic Mexican tacos before, stay away from their pork tacos. They're good, but nothing special. Use your money and your stomach space to try some of their options.

Chicken, chorizo and tofu/kimchi taco NOMS

I've never been to the freestanding restaurant, only to the food truck. If you are the owners, please visit close to Watterson Towers anytime/all the time!!! I love tacos, I actually live for them on work days! 2-3 corn tacos filled to the brim with delicious innards gets me PUMPED UP!! And full. I had the "chorizo" taco (which is basically a spiced up beef), chicken taco and a tofu/kimchi taco. I'm not a huge kimchi person because the ones I have had sucked. BUT this tofu/kimchi taco has me thinking that I just hadn't of found the right kimchi! Packed full of flavor, but lighter than, say, a deep fried taco? All mine were gluten free (yasss) and including a bottle water, I paid only $11 for my lunch! I was full for several hours, as these bad buys are crazy filling! If anyone knows a way to keep up with where the truck is at, I would really appreciate it! I want these tacos again sometime!

The Tofu/kimchi taco here = Best taco I've ever had. Seriously. No joke. Just wish I didn't have to find the truck every time I want one. :( I've tried making them at home, but to no avail.

Today the truck was at Gallrein farms in Shelbyville. Service was fast. There were several choices and all were 3 tacos for $12 which seemed slightly on the high side for street tacos. I asked if I could mix and match selection and was told no. Since they all are 3 for $12 I'm not really sure why that isn't an option? I went with beef tacos. The beef was strip variety. Tacos arrived fast but were cold and chewy. Taco shells were corn soft taco variety but were overall dry. My wife ordered the Korean tofu tacos and she thought they were ok but not amazing. So overall I would rate experience 2.5 stars but since mixing and matching tacos was not an option I rounded down.

Chorizo, fried fish, pulled pork

Fantastic chorizo and fried fish and pulled pork tacos. Fresh corn tortillas, quality dressings, and good flavor. I wanted more dressings, I like a messy taco but I guess when your eating it with your hands it's too much, ha. I also wish there was a 2 taco option - oh I ate all three, but I knew 2 would have done the job.

Hot chicken tacos

Oh Holy Mole. So delicious. Gourmet, but not snooty. Convenient, but I don't feel bad about it later.

According to It's Facebook page, the owner of this food truck is permanently closed due to…read moreretirement. Wish I had come across it page sooner the burgers looked like fire.

Traveling food truck that stopped by in my neighborhood in the fern creek mt Washington part of…read moretown during the Covid Pandemic. Had a pretty decent line that they handled relatively easy. The lady working the food truck was very nice and courteous. You had an option of about 5 to 6 burgers to choose from. My oldest daughter and me got the stink and swine burger and my wife got the inferno burger. All the burgers were tasty and fresh and came with a side of fries. Fries were solid as well. The stink and swine was a bacon burger with Gorgonzola cheese. So something a little unique. I always forget whether I like Gorgonzola cheese. Then when I get something with it on it I take one bite and I'm always like "oh yeah I'm not a big fan of this type of cheese". It has a small aftertaste that my tastebuds aren't a huge fan of. Very messy burger. Overall even with me getting a cheese I always forget I'm not a fan of it was still a tasty burger. The inferno burger had fried onions, jalapeños and pepper jack cheese on it. The wife enjoyed it. Stated wasn't as spicy as she thought it would be. But that's isn't a bad thing. She likes to dabble in spicy foods but also enjoys tasting her food. So she was satisfied. All in all was a good little meal. Only complaint I can have is that for $12 the burgers could be a little bit larger. Worth checking out if they come to your neighborhood. Or if you are an HOA go getter contact them to visit your neighborhood and your neighbors can try some tasty burger and fries.
