    Tacos $2 each when parked at Raven Tower
    Jeremy T.

    During my brief visit to the Raven Tower, I got hungry and stopped at the La Macro food truck. They are there pretty regularly, along with operating their restaurant on Washington which I haven't visited yet. The menu was limited and offered just a few basic items: tacos, quesadillas, tortas and a hamburger. They have three meats: beef, chicken and trompo. The guy at the counter indicated that trompo (seasoned pork) was their speciality. On my order, I chose 3 tacos, 2 with trompo and 1 with beef. My favorite was actually the beef, since it was different than the average beef / fajita taco at taco trucks. I thought the trompo was good, but just greasy. I'm not sure it's the best trompo in town since I've had several, but it's good. My favorite was the addicting green sauce, which was the spicier one.

    yummy food truck that we found outside of a bar called drift! Short line, big selection of food. Really tasty stuff here, definitely support these guys if you can!

    Definitely the best tacos al pastor that I've ever had! The meat is tender and deliciously marinated. We'll be going back often and are already telling everyone we know that we've found our new favorite tacos. We also met the owner and he was super kind and attentive. I took some tacos to go and they were still warm :)

    This was the only food truck at raven tower when I went, I ordered the mini tacos which came in a set of 5 for $8. I ordered both the beef and pork which were both very tasty, will probably revisit if the chance allows.

    Delicious, authentic tacos for a good price. They have lots of lounge seating and park tables. A yummy midnight snack.

    Parked in the courtyard of the Raven Tower bar this taco truck was much needed after a night of throwing back shots. The staff was nice and told us to go back to the bar and they come find us when our food is ready. If you didn't mind waiting they had a nice playlist playing in the background that you could dance to while you waited. I ordered the beef fajitas tacos, which you can get 5 for $8. The fajita meat was mediocre and the tacos are made with corn tortillas. My friend order the quesadillas and tacos and said the quesadillas were better. But the Salsa Verde (green salsa) was amazing and spicy. It truly boosted the flavor of the tacos.

Inside it is a one room eatery with counter service. My first visit was to try the Birria Burrito for $16 with the meal delivered about 10 minutes later. It consisted of their Birria meat cooked for 4 hours mixed with chorizo, cheese, rice, beans and sour cream all wrapped in a large flour tortilla seasoned with their special red colored seasoning. With the meal came a cup of consomne'. Guy Fieri would say, Welcome to Flavortown! It was delicious. The Birria beef was so tender and the flavored flour tortilla with that proprietary red seasoning they use was perfect. It was a very filling meal and well worth the price. So much so, I thought about it the next day. Another visit was to try one of their specialities, the Quesabirria for $14. This meal consisted of 3 grilled and crispy corn tortillas seasoned again with their special red colored magic dust. The tortillas had the delicious Birria meat and cheese inside and I again loved them. The tortillas are only slightly crispy and the meat, cheese and tortillas memorable. This meal also came with a cup of consommé for dipping. Another nice thing about eating here is the customer service. The lady at the counter was very friendly and helpful. The guy bussing the tables acted more like the owner than an employee with his helpfulness and the actual manager came out to check on us. Impressive for a counter service restaurant. Tacos Dona Lena deserves its reputation as one of the best restaurants of its kind. Incredible food and employees all at very reasonable prices.

There were a nice crunch to the tacos and it wasn't too oily to me. ** flour tacos - 4/5 Good for tacos, no more to say. ** horchata - 2/5 (not pictured) I also got the horchata but was not a big fan but I'm usually picky with horchata when I go to any restaurants.

I had just been chatting…read morewith Gretel about breakfast tacos the day we landed in Houston -- and breakfast tacos are one of my favourite things about visiting Texas. We pulled up to this food truck and, while placing our order, I instantly had the feeling that this crew knew exactly what they were doing. That impression proved to be spot on as soon as I took my first bite. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with the kind of simple, honest ingredients that make great breakfast tacos so satisfying. No gimmicks, no unnecessary fuss -- just well-executed food that delivers exactly what you're hoping for. The service was efficient, the operation ran smoothly, and it was easy to see why there was a steady stream of customers. Overall, an excellent breakfast taco stop and exactly the kind of local experience I look for when I'm in Houston. Saluti.

I would like to try their other tacos and give a more detailed review. I will be back! but for sure the quesadilla was a hit for me

Since it was my first time here, I ended up ordering 1 chorizo and 1 asada taco, churros, limon aguas, and my friend got the asada taco as well and a hortchata! Since it was super busy (especially on saturday night) it was about a 30 minute wait foe our food but it was well worth it! They hand out free chicharrones and they were super crunchy and a nice snack while we waited for our food. The limon aguas was super refreshing especially in the summer heat and the horchata was really good! We sat at the counter top that overlooks the kitchen. I love that the open kitchen concept so you can see them making your food right in front of you! Everything smelled so good so I was excited for my food. I love that they give radishes, cucumbers, and plenty of limes on the side. I definitely love all of the toppings and the more the better! I tried all of the salsas and the salsa de chile de arbol was by far my favorite! super spicy but had so much flavor. The chorizo was good but a little dry for my liking. I did just want to try it so I can try more than one flavor but I think I would get it again as a breakfast taco with egg instead. The asada was my favorite of the two so much flavor and plenty of meat! I was content with these 2 tacos but I could have definitely eaten more if we didn't order churros as well! The churros came with classic condensed milk and dulce de leche which is just carmelized condensed milk. The churros were crunchy and warm on the outside and had a chewy texture like mochi on the inside! Super yummy and not too sweet! I liked both sauces and would definitely get this again. Overall, I had a great experience and I will be craving the tacos until the next time I can come back! I can't wait to try a lot of their other menu items as well. Definitely recommend!

I don't like cinnamon but the horchata was addicting and it paired so well with the food. My friend got their Melon Agua Fresca and he said it was really refreshing as well. The gorditas were stuffed and they were so delicious, the cheese was melting and the bread was warm and not dry. The Quesadillas were my favorite. You put both the red sauce and the green sauce on it, a lot of lime juice, and it's perfect. I forgot to order cilantro on mine but they do give you it at no extra cost. The prices are so cheap and you get so much food. Everything is around $3 and it will fill you up. Each of us totaled out to be about $10-15 per person and we were stuffed. I would definitely come back here over and over again! My friend said the only bad thing about this place is when you order to go, they won't give you a lot (no lime, no hot sauces, less meat, etc.) so definitely get dine-in.
