    1 dozen tapatios
    Lindsay D.

    I understand the craze now. I've been following La Maceta Tapatios on Instagram and Facebook for a little while now trying to figure out this best timing and location combo that would allow me to finally sink my teeth into their beloved tapatios. Well, wonder no more because the stars aligned and you're darn right I made an event out of it. There are some important things to note though when it comes to La Maceta Taptios though before you go. 1. Track their locations, times, and menu item availability on their social media accounts (Facebook and Instagram are active, can confirm). 2. When you get to their food truck they have an order system. They'll set up a couple crates (and hopefully some signs if it's not too windy) and ask folks that have yet to order to form a single-file line by those crates and wait. 3. They take orders in batches. When you form that single-file line in #2, they may not take your order immediately. If you don't see anyone to take your order, just wait by the crates and they'll be with you shortly. Why? They're making other orders at the time and probably are trying not to overload the kitchen. 4. Get the tapatios. 5. All orders are to-go and they have figured out how to package them to arrive to your dining destination safely and still crispy and warm. They have flat Styrofoam trays/plates that have lips around the edges, and then they place a rather sturdy bit of aluminium foil over the top. Genius. Food quality was amazing, fresh ingredients, and those tapatios. Do yourself a favor and just get them. You wanted tacos? Get those too, but also get those tapatios. Crunchy, filled with chicken, topped with tomatoes, cabbage, and queso fresco (I believe). Delicious.

    La Maceta Tapatios has won my heart! These ladies know what they are doing, and they are the best! Food: Tacos, tacos, tacos and más tacos! I honestly can't remember the name of the tacos I order, but they were made of asada and I added cheese and avocado. My order had the classic double corn tortilla and the meat and toppings were fresh and delicious. All of their food is made to order, so I've heard of some people having to wait up to an hour because they had a huge waiting line. Honestly, this doesn't bother me because I appreciate the effort and freshness that comes with their tacos. Location: La Maceta Tapatios location changes from day to day. They are usually around the downtown, southtown and south side area. My pro tip for you, is to follow their Instagram account because that is where they announce their weekly schedule and any changes to their location.

    Yaaassssss !!Finally had a chance to pre-order and get myself some amazing Mexican food. Kind of want to try the whole menu but this time I was able to try their mini tacos along with the Mexican hotdog. My boyfriend have got the mini tacos with the Tapatio's. And must I say their food is definitely made with love. everything was hot everything was amazing and tacos were amazing which is definitely hard to find authentic Mexican food. Okayyy I will definitely be back when I am on this side of town. It just sucks that they're not close but for now I will make the drive. I definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting anything but your typical TexMex. especially being from Cali. keep slaying la Maceta

    Food was ok, but pricy. This is a food truck and they are located in different parts of town. You can check their Facebook page for the locations I had the veggie tacos. I don't know why they were $1 more than the meat tacos. It had corn, cabbage, onions and avocado. It comes with six mini tacos to one order and you can't order single ones like the meat tacos. It comes with a side of beans that have bacon, so if you're vegetarian, you can't have any and they don't offer you to substitute. The corn in a cup is no worth the $4. It is canned corn and has nothing special in it. I suggest you skip it. My boyfriend had the combo plate. It came with half mini tacos and half tapatios. He liked the tapatios more than the mini tacos. The cabbage topping on the tapatios was pretty yummy. The tapatios had a good flavor. The beans were lacking flavor. They have two tables with a few chairs set up in case you want to eat there

    Valen-tacos! Nothing says I love you more than these babies
    Bernie B.

    Valen-tacos for the win! Nothing says I love you more than these babies! Always fresh, the taste bangs and that green salsa is to die for! A great place with consistent flavors, service and smiles. The new Toma Todo S.A drinks are one of a kind! I can't wait to try these babies in the summer in the Texas heat!

    Tacos Tapatios

    The food flavors were delicious. The taquitos were perfectly fried and the pickled cabbage was delicious. Price was too high for 6 taquitos. The other downside was they are inside a bar not family friendly.

    Omg! I was in Tapatio heaven! The only other place you can get Tacos Tapatios, is in Acuña, Mexico. They tasted just like the ones from Acuña!! Plus now I can get them at home instead of crossing the border lol. They are flautas, even thought they are called tacos, piled high with cabbage, tomatoes, crema, and mexican cheese, and a jalepeno on the side. I also tried the Mexican hot dog, which was a frank piled with bits of bacon, crema, and pico de gallo. Everything was delicious!!! We will definitely be coming back!!!!

    Finally made it out to see what the big hype was about these Tapatios. I've had Tapatios in Del Rio TX so I knew what to expect. The Tapatios were very good. They tasted like I was back in Del Rio. The cabbage and crema were perfect ratio. I did order extra crema just Incase it wasn't enough but honestly I think it was enough with what it came with. I also ordered mini tacos. The Asada tasted very good and the onions were finely chopped. The day I went they were giving complementary charro beans. Great flavor. The only con that I have is the long wait. I did see the young ladies working very hard to get our orders perfect so I would say it was worth the wait. I will be going back. If it's your first time there go prepared. Take lawn chairs and water the wait it long but worth it.

A girl and a guy helped us and they were super sweet and really fun to talk to!! Also the building is nice and cozy and gives rustic, authentic vibes and it's actually bomb. Bussin' is a VERY accurate name for this place.

    First time visit around 11am…read more Ambiance: Bussin Q has a laid‑back, comfortable vibe that fits the food perfectly. The space feels clean, casual, and inviting -- the kind of place where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. Whether you're dining solo, with family, or with a group, the atmosphere makes it easy to settle in and enjoy the experience. Music, décor, and overall energy all work together to create a spot that feels homey. Service: Was greeted as I walked through the door and very helpful with going through the menu. In addition, as a first-time visitor, they wanted to make sure how hungry you are with helping with decision. The staff brings the experience together. They're attentive without hovering, quick to offer recommendations, and genuinely friendly. You can tell they take pride in the restaurant and want guests to enjoy themselves. Orders come out in good time, and the team keeps the energy positive and welcoming. It's the type of service that makes you feel like a regular even if it's your first visit. Food: The food is the standout here. Bussin Q leans into rich, smoky flavors and generous portions that feel crafted with intention. The meats come out tender. However, could have used a little more season on the meat and the mac-n-cheese. Thus, carrying that slow‑cooked depth you expect from real barbecue. The sides hold their own too -- not just fillers, but dishes with personality. Whether it's their mac‑n‑cheese, greens, or any of the rotating specials, everything tastes like it was made by someone who cares about the final plate. It's the kind of meal that makes you pause mid‑bite and nod because it's that good. Overall: Bussin Q is absolutely worth the visit. Great food, great people, and a vibe that makes you want to come back. If you're in the area and craving barbecue that hits the mark, this place could be on your list.

    My wife and I stopped by Los Weyes De La Asada while we were at El Camino. I'd heard good things…read moreabout it, and seeing the charcoal grill going outside immediately got my attention. The smell alone made me think we were in for something special. We grabbed a couple of cocktails and ordered tacos, which seemed like the obvious choice. The tacos were good, but that's about where I'd leave it. They weren't bad at all, but they also weren't particularly memorable. With the aroma coming from the grill and all the recommendations I'd heard, I was expecting a little more flavor and a bigger wow factor. The atmosphere was fun, the service was good, and the charcoal grill definitely adds to the experience. I just found the food itself to be more "solid" than "spectacular." I'd rate it about a 7 out of 10. Worth trying if you're already at El Camino, but not a place I'd go out of my way for.

    There's a certain kind of joy you don't plan for, it just hits you. Like pulling up to your primo's…read morecarne asada, the loud one, the one where somehow the music is always right, the grill is always going, and for a few hours nothing else matters. That's exactly the energy at Los Weyes de la Asada. From the second you walk up, it feels alive. Not in a forced way, more like you've been there before, even if it's your first time. The kind of place where your stress, your diet, even your cruda takes a backseat. Now the food. No overthinking needed here. Everything coming out of that truck is a straight up pow pow of flavor. The carne is cooked just right, juicy with that perfect char, and the corn tortillas are legit, soft but with enough structure to hold everything together. I ordered the Mamón and the Chingón, and honestly, both lived up to the names. No misses. And the agua fresca de fresa? That sealed it. They serve it in a little bolsita, which somehow makes it hit even better. Simple, nostalgic, and just cool. It's all tucked inside El Camino, which adds to the whole vibe, string lights, people hanging out, that easygoing outdoor feel where you lose track of time a little.
