Great hidden truck! Came here craving tacos after hiking Inga's trail. Tucked in a gas station lot this truck felt authentic like I had back in California. Was served immediately and ordered some asada tacos and pastor tacos. Was interested in a gorda so I ordered that and asked if they had a quesadilla which wasn't on the menu and they did! They had green and red sauce both very delicious and the red was spicy! Tacos were awesomely portioned with plenty of meat and onions and cilantro and they gave lines too. The quesadilla came with some avocado and sour cream too. There were some benches in the shade if you wanted to eat there and you know it's good if the manual labor guys get their lunch here! Would totally come back for more! read more

SO SAD. I was incredibly hopeful this was going to be AH-MAZING, but instead, it fell a bit flat. I'm a huge fan of the sauce. I believe the sauce is what ties everything together when it comes to breakfast tacos. However... the sauce was so mediocre, I actually THREW IT AWAY *GASP*. I'm torn. I ordered the Migas and the Potato and Egg Breakfast Tacos. If you are a migas enthusiast, you know migas is a compilation of crushed tostadas, eggs, tomatoes, chiles, and onions mixed with cheese. For some strange reason... La Traila adds refried beans to their mix... which completely takes away from the classics of a migas. read more

Honestly, I'm from the valley near the border of Mexico so finding semi decent Mexican tacos around Austin is impossible. La traila on the other hand really impressed me, their tortillas are super fresh and just how homemade Mexican tortillas should taste like. The inside was a omelette of goodness. I got el flako which is eggs, mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, onion, and cheese served with real salsa verde. If you go YOU'RE IN FOR A TREAT! read more

Do you like breakfast tacos? You live in Austin, of course you like Breakfast Tacos. Well then taco lover, you already know there are about a million choices in Austin when it comes to eggs wrapped in a tortilla. You can go ahead and add one more option to that already expansive list. La Trailá may not be the most exciting place, and it might not do anything really new or different, but damn it is pretty good. They have all the standard egg + meat (or potato, if you're into that) tacos as well as a few big specialty tacos. They also have this great spicy green salsa that is quite delicious. The tortillas are apparently all handmade as well, and that's pretty rad. The cost is pretty good as well. I pay roughly $1.50 for a eggs/meat taco, and roughly $2.75 for a eggs/meat/taters/avocado taco. So, La Trailá is pretty great even if it's pretty unexciting. If you happen to be driving down Mesa you should stop by and give it a shot. Oh yeah, and they are cash only... so make sure you bring some green paper. read more

Stumbled upon this place in the corner of a gas station parking lot across Anderson High School. It turned out to be a pretty great experience. When it comes to tacos, I have a few go-to's and favorites that I use to judge a place. I went with migas, tripas, and carne asada. All three were well done with the tripas being the best of the group. I know some people may not be a huge fan of tripe, but as someone who grew up in South Texas, good tripe on a homemade corn tortilla, topped with onion and cilantro is as good as it gets. This place definitely passed the test! The migas was pretty good as well (a notch or two below Veracruz), while the carne asada was above average. The tacos came with a mild red/orange salsa and a fiery hot green salsa, so be careful if you're sensitive to spice. Overall, this is a great spot to pick up a quick and cheap lunch. Everything came out to about $8 and the tacos came out hot and fresh in less than 5 minutes. read more

I found this place about a week ago on my way to work, and have been back twice for the lengua and barbacoa. While some have pointed out that Austin has a lot of good authentic breakfast tacos (completely true), that is absolutely not true of this part of Austin. So I am very appreciative of what these guys are doing: homemade corn tortillas and rich, intense salsa, without having to travel to Burnet or north Lamar. I also enjoyed the egg white, jalapeño, and avocado taco, pretty sweet. read more

This is my regular morning taco stop. All the guys who do construction in the area stop by here, so that's a good sign. Everything fresh, tortillas made by hand, they crack the eggs right as they put them on the stove. My wife is a big fan of the veggie El Flako (but she adds bacon, go figure). That's quite filling, as are the migas (which has refried beans) and the Anderson. I have gone minimalistic these days and just get the bacon and eggs. Cooked to perfection (not burned) and perfectly seasoned. They are $1.75 apiece (and they now take credit cards) and two are just right for me. I'm not a huge fan of the hot sauce but I'll take the green if I don't have any at home. You can get coffee and drinks at the Mini Mart, and there are a couple of tables outside. The tacos are so good that we ate thru 2 or 3 each a couple of weeks ago, and I was sent out to get some more. Now that's a mission I'll always accept! read more

I was telling my girl and friends about how much I missed this place even though I left Austin over a decade ago. I tried everything on their limited menu and there were three guarantees: it was delicious, it was going to be a short wait, and it was going to be spicy. We were just going to get some coffee at Dame and imagine my surprise when I saw the trailer. I did a double take and saw the same menu and smelled the familiar garlic smell. I told my girl we were going to eat there no matter what. I ordered the naan wrap and fried rice for us to share. Imi was an awesome host and promptly made our food. It is still delicious, still spicy, and yes, it's a short wait. It's worth it, it's very worth it. The area is a small food truck park that is dusty and outdoors.

Huge portion size but wasn't quite what I was expecting. Salad was pretty standard but I'm glad they kept it separate so it wouldn't wilt from the heat. As for the chicken, I was hoping by itself it would be more thai inspired/marinated/seasoned but it's effectively just chopped up chicken tenders to be dunked in the curry. The curry is flavorful, albeit a bit watery, which I wish was reduced a bit. But if curry is not your thing, my friend's Kai Zabb was very good: tangy, sweet and heat all at once, so good to really switch up bites. And while I wasn't expecting sticky rice, I can't help but say it's the first time I've had thai fried chicken without it. All in all, I think its a great new place to try out, but if you've had thai fried chicken before, just temper your expectations.

Such a cool area to eat! It was much cooler under this covered area (which is also under some tree coverage).

I got the chorizo and egg taco which was just ok - I'm very choosy on chorizo though (I like when it swims in its own grease and this wasn't that). Easy wait for a taco to be made fresh in the food truck grove, just remember your bug spray!

I think the lady helping us described them as blue masa, chile, toasted, fried, and dried. The salsas were very good too. I got the lengua taco and a breakfast bean taco to try out since I wasn't super hungry. The lengua was so tender and delicious. I typically get a flour tortilla but after the complimentary tortillas, I felt like I should have gotten their corn since it felt like they made their own. I also got their flan which was delicious! I thought this was a lovely lunch and it was a bit sad to see it mostly empty. I think the food is delicious and the waitress was nice enough to explain some of the dishes we had questions on. Definitely want to come back to try the other dishes

Honestly these might be the best tacos al vapor I've ever had (at least top 3). We also had a…read moreregular lengua and a campechana taco but do not leave without at least one of their specialties. The food truck has outdoor seating so on a nice day you can order and eat right there but it was raining the day we went so we ate in the car lol. The tortillas hold up to the cooking process (in a lot of other places they crack or break apart when you pick them up) and both the green and red salsas are excellent (slight kick and lots of flavor). The tacos are between $2 and $2.50 but the money move is to get one of their combos - $9.99 for 5 you pick and less than $8 for one of each flavor (that's around $1.50 per taco!) The mixed combo is the way to go because every filling is a banger: frijoles, potatoes w chorizo, chicharron, deshebrada (beef), and rajas. I usually don't like deshabrada as much because it can get dry but here the meat is juicy and full of flavor. The chicharron is excellent as well. But the really surprise was the rajas, which were amazing - poblano peppers w cheese and potato. The flavor in that taco was incredibly nuanced and the green salsa puts it over the top. Regios al Vapor is a great place for a cheap and simple meal - highly recommend!

The birria special is a must get of course. The consomme is so delicious, (it kind of reminded me of pho) and the birria tacos were so good. They fill that thing all the way up! And the meat and cheese ratio is perfect. We also got the birria reuben. Also so good, it was a nice mix of tender meat and the sauerkraut with the golden buttery bread. Plus the fries were so addicting. Truly the crispiest fries I've ever had. The caramel churros were the perfect finish. So hot and fresh with the caramel inside. And it was surprisingly not too sweet. Only downside is that their seating area is literally one table in the hot sun, so I definitely see this as more of a takeout spot and you just eat at home.

Very, very good tacos and Quesabirria! Just an overall lovely little shop. I got to try their…read moreQuesabirria tacos with the consomme. With one order, I got 3 tacos. They were packed to the brim with tasty meat and plenty of cheese! Super flavorful and satisfying. Solid portion for the price. The consomme was also quite good and came in a solid portion; not the most flavorful, but still quite good. 2 spicy sauces provided on the side, as well as option for lime and radishes. All in all, definitely recommend this spot! The food is very tasty; I would especially recommend the Quesabirria!

As a young adult burritos was one of my favorite foods and the hubs likes them also. Going in, we knew one thing, Asado's Taqueria burritos are massive...enough for two people. We chose a chicken burrito filled with a massive amount of chicken, pinto beans, guacamole, and Monterey Jack cheese in a large homemade flour tortilla crisply grilled. It also came with pico de gallo and sour cream which we opted out in lieu extra guacamole. The textures and flavors made this burrito extremely delicious and filling. Glad we took the burrito plunge... The chef and cashier were extremely nice and accomodating. There is a small courtyard filled with picnic tables where you eat your meals.

While we waited for our food we were outside and they had multiple fans and misters going for everyone to stay cool. We ordered 2 regular burritos (1 Carnitas & 1 Steak). First we split the burrito and noticed that there was not a lot of meat. HOWEVER, all of the meat is on the ends and I wish they would distribute better throughout the burrito. We also ordered with sour cream and they forgot. We will definitely be back and for the carnitas burrito! it was really good and extremely filling.
