We ordered the buffalo chicken tacos, mexi cali shrimp bowl, margaritas, and loaded tots. We enjoyed all of the food and margaritas. The service was pretty good.

The taco stand was a cute little place in the heart of Westheimer. Keep in mind that it's a chain…read morerestaurant rather than a mom and pop shop though. So, there are multiple other locations and also the quality of everything is generic to the chain. Besides for the higher cost of a taco in the area, these tacos were very good. These tacos were juicy and flavorful. I got the quesobirria tacos. They came with 3 tacos and a soup to dip. They also had an open side bar with pickled onions and sauces so don't forget to pick up some of those. Surface was fast. You order at the counter. Then, you pick up at the counter when your order is ready. It makes things quick and easy when I went. There wasn't much of a line, but I can see it getting busy. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. And depending on how nice the weather is having that option is super nice and Houston weather. There is also a parking lot, which makes things very easy. Otherwise, there's a neighborhood in the back where you can just streetside park.

They…read morehave several different meat options, and you can get your tacos on either flour or corn tortillas. Nothing we had was necessarily something I would write home about, but the food was good and the value for the money is definitely there. The restaurant itself is a little rundown, with small metal tables and a pretty basic taco-shop setup, but honestly that almost fits the place. The parking lot is also pretty small considering how busy the area is, so parking could probably be a little annoying during peak times. The service was fine. I wouldn't necessarily describe the staff as especially friendly, but everyone was efficient and did their job well. Overall, not a bad spot at all. Good tacos, good prices, and a solid option if you're in the area and want a quick, inexpensive meal.

Taqueria near Memorial Park. They had regular tacos and breakfast tacos. Tacos were $4-$6 ish and I…read morefelt like they were a pretty decent size. Ordered: - Load Nachos (with Barbacoa) - Queso was yummy. Barbacoa meat works very well on the nachos. - Taco Al Pastor - Taco Oriental - Gringa - Favorite taco out of the ones we had. I feel like the cheese and avocado made a difference compared to the regular one. - Taco Samuel (Beef) - Horchata - yummy. Small cup was huge and it was only $3.50. We don't eat tacos a ton in Houston a lot but very satisfied with our meal. Definitely would reorder the nachos, gringa, and horchata again next time we go. I'm also interested in trying their breakfast tacos next time.

Me thinking I would need a doggy bag and my stomach saying not today. The food freshly prepared and served. Also my cup stayed filled as well. They also have sufficient parking at the facility, so no valeting or pay meters. This one definitely goes on the list of returns. So, until the next time!! Bye - Bye!

The flavor of the horchata was good; it tasted a bit watered down but that's on me for not picking up my food immediately. The tacos were filled generously with meat and toppings, and both were super yummy with the accompanying salsas. The chips were thin which is my preference with tortilla chips. The salsa was smooth and the queso was good with a little kick of spice. Everything was pretty good and filling and everything was packed very well.

It was so good and was a good size. I enjoyed it so much that I'd definitely go back just for that Torta Cubana. I have yet to try the other stuff and will post another review on the other items. It's a taco truck so there wasn't much ambience and not much service.

When I went, it was empty at 8PM with just 2 girls sitting inside waiting for customers to come in. I ordered 3 tacos for myself and chips and queso. They came out with the chips and queso at the same time as the tacos and it was within 10 minutes of me ordering! Super quick. They also gave me 2 bottles of hot sauce, which I loved both because they're just as flavorful as spicy. The tacos were definitely filling and stuffed with meat. I really enjoyed them and would definitely come back. I ordered 4 tacos to-go for my husband to have, 1 al pastor, 1 shrimp pastor, 1 carne asada and 1 chicken fajita. They have a bunch of different drinks which I'll try next time I'm in because they looked good! Price is good as well. I'd save average for what you get.
