Two taco plate
Maisha R.

I was heading to Whit's for custard when I saw a few people waiting for this truck in the adjacent parking lot. I looked at the reviews, which were very good, and headed over to check out the menu. I decided to get two tacos - carnitas and pastor. The cost of a single taco wasn't on the menu but when my order rang up, it was $7.53 with tax. At $3.50 each, clearly the 3 taco plate on the menu for $8.75 was a better deal but I only wanted two tacos. I chose corn tortillas over the flour ones and the order was up quickly. After the first bite, I was confused. There was really no seasoning in the carnitas. The meat actually tasted like tuna. It was very strange. I put that one down and bit into the pastor taco and out came a huge piece of fat. The saving grace on the plate was the salsa and the chips. This wasn't a good first experience at Mr. Taco. In size and concept, these tacos reminded me of the $1/$1.50 tacos at the food trucks in LA and at $3.50 each, I think they were quite overpriced for the quality of the meat, both of which had really no flavor to them despite the toppings. I've had much better tacos at food trucks in the past and I understand this place has multiple trucks and restaurants.

So the food was good. Really good. However the prices are a little steep. 3 tacos and chips and question $23. We opted for the other taco place in this plaza the following day and we recommend them over Mr Taco.

The food truck is so tasty and fresh! The pork carnitas were so well made and crispy like I likey!!! My friend had the burrito and I can only assume it was perfection as she moaned...."this is the best food I ever had!" Everyone loved the 3 taco deal very much and no matter what they got...fish, shrimp, chicken, pork.....they loved it!!! We were on beach blvd. In a parking lot so I grabbed a blanket and we sat on the floor. It was a fun experience!

This Mexican food truck is easy to see from beach Blvd. They are in a part of the parking lot with lots of lights and isolated from the main building behind them. The food we ordered here was very well prepared. It was made on spot. It tasted fresh. That is a unexpected surprise from a food truck. That implies the fresh cut and prepped the food the morning before loading the truck. The cost are same as any Mexican restaurant. The wait was short. They have drinks and seating if you want to eat on site.

Consistency is key. Especially when tacos are involved. Mr. Taco delivers the most scrumptious tacos on each passing visit. Plus, they're open so late that even when you've had too much to drink, you're not obligated to hit up the BK drive thru. Let's take a moment of silence for hot and fresh, double wrapped corn tortillas. (silence. silence. silence.) The latest visit included a few out of towners, and they were mind blown! Literally, they were in absolute awe that late-night, local tacos could be so damn delicious, cheap and fast. Whether it's pollo, carnitas or camarones, Mr. Taco lives up to their name and their hype every single time. Some of my favorite places in Jacksonville don't bring their 5 star game each time. Mr. Taco has changed the game for the better. Tacos. For. The. Win.

This was my first time eating from the Mr. Taco truck. I've passed the truck many times and decided to try it out with my friends who were visiting from Tampa as I've heard great things about the food. I ordered the three taco deal, hard shell beef, soft shell chicken and steak. The beef was my favorite. My friend said the pork was really good, so next time I'm trying the pork on a quesadilla. The tacos come with onions, sour cream, tomatoes and lettuce. All the ingredients were very fresh, both of veggies and meat. You also get chips and salsa and a green spicy sauce. If you do not like spicy foods stay away from the green sauce. I loved the green sauce! My food was served with a smile. The gentleman was very helpful since this is my first time. If you see the Mr. Taco truck.....stop and eat!

Had a late night taco craving and this food truck came in clutch. The tacos were prepared to order and had the perfect amount of spice for my Indian taste buds! Make sure you squeeze the lime!

Asada, pastor, and carnitas corn tacos.

I'm not a food truck connoisseur. Other than a couple of times in Portland, my truck experiences have been limited. So I count my lucky stars that Mr Taco was my first real late nite food truck moment. After a fantastic time at Southern Swells (you NEED to go there), my stomach was crying out for something tasty and greasy (in a good way). I'd heard many people sing the praises of this food truck (looking at you Matt), so I had to give them a try since they were within walking distance. At that time of night, the only tacos they had left were Asada, Pastor, and Carnitas (white people translation: steak, cubed pork, shredded pork). That was the perfect sampler for a 1st time customer. I added a bottle of pineapple Jarritos because nothing beats Mexican soda when paired with meat, cheese, and vegetables in a corn tortilla. The tacos were phenomenal and those morsels of flavor were exactly what I needed. I can't wait to go back. Next time I'm diving into the Camarones and Chorizo.

Tacos (Asada, pastor, carnitas)... so delicious!!!
Amy M.

Best food truck experience ever! 3 tacos for $7 with chips and salsa, also salsa verde included. They had an amazing outer double corn shell, the asada and carnitas tacos were my favorite. The location of this food truck was impeccable after a night of craft beer drinking... I will definitely be back to try more items, or gobble up some more delicious tacos! YUMMY!!!

Shrimp quesadilla. Too soupy, no bueno

I saw a recent review from a fellow foodie who raved about this place. We made it a date night, and…read moreupon arrival, we faced a few challenges. First, parking: almost everywhere you look, there are tow-zone signs. We chose to park about a block away in the neighborhood. Walking in, we encountered a very long line to order. The indoor seating is very limited; there are only two small tables outside on the sidewalk. After reading all the reviews, I found it odd that, while waiting in line and looking at the plates around us, many people were throwing their fries away. That suggests they aren't good, or everything else was so good that they were full. As I looked around, I felt as though I might have been in this store before, when it was a donut shop; things looked quite familiar. The staff was definitely keeping up with the crowd, as this place was packed. We ordered the Hardpressed and the Patty Melts, a side of loaded French fries, an order of onion rings, and finally, a vanilla shake. The chocolate and strawberry flavors were sold out. It was very loud inside, but luckily, an outside table became available. Shortly after grabbing the outside table, our vanilla shake arrived, and it was surprisingly very good. Well, that got my attention and set the stage for what was to come. Some time passed, and our ordered items began to arrive sporadically. The loaded fries looked good, as did both burgers, but we were still missing the onion rings. My wife overheard the table next to us that the onion rings had recently sold out, so the question was, did we get in on time with our order? We dove into the loaded fries and found that the fries appeared freshly cut but didn't hold up well to the toppings; they were quite soggy, nearly mushy. Flavor was OK, and the jalapenos seemed freshly cut. Minor setback, all is still well. As my wife went in on her patty melt, I saw her expression, and she was quite pleased. Up next was their signature Hard Pressed Burger. I went in and was instantly greeted by the crispy texture of those grilled, smashed bits and the grilled bun, followed by the pickle and the remaining condiments. It was a very good first bite. My wife and I traded burgers, and wow, was that patty melt delightful. That crispy, grilled, flavor-filled rye bread stood out and introduced itself again, followed by the crispy tidbits of smashed beef, and that thousand island dressing brought it all together. Once again, another very good first bite. Our onion rings finally arrived and looked amazing. The crisp on the onion rings reminded me of the same texture seen on the fish & chips at Arthur Treacher's or even Long John Silver's. When paired with their Garlic Aioli, you instantly know someone in the kitchen knows their stuff. THAT GARLIC AIOLI!! Salute! At the conclusion of our meals, we were maxed out and needed to walk off our fullness. We headed into the square and concluded our night with some geocaching. Thanks for the great experience, and thanks to all of us foodies out there who bring these hidden gems to light!

My daughter frequently requests to get a burger from this food truck outside Ink Factory Brewing…read moreand often times, eats 1 then asks for a 2nd because of how much she loves them. The reason I rank it a 3 this most recent time we visited, is because the burgers and fries were a lot saltier than usual. They also did not have the grilled cheese option on the order ahead menu today which was a bummer for my younger daughter as that's her go to. We will chalk it up to an off day and will definitely be back. I appreciated that the employee working was friendly and thanked us for coming out and ordering.

You can also make any of the burgers using Beyond Meat! We ordered: +the Mercury - made with 2 patties of grass-fed halal beef, yellow American cheese, caramelized onions, crunchy potatoes, Galaxy sauce, Rocket Sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions on a potato bun +Cosmic Fries - shoestring fries with house seasoning and Parmesan, served with a side of Cosmic sauce The burgers were described as 'smashburgers', so the patties were cooked all the way through (which I prefer!); the burger itself was actually okay, but there was something in there that made it taste slightly off - either it was the caramelized onions, the Galaxy sauce, or the Rocket sauce, there was something that was a bit too sugary/sweet; I think without this element, the burger would have been better! Maybe I'd ask for the sauces to be served on the side. The fries were okay - they did fill the styrofoam box to the brim and was generous in serving two cups of the Cosmic sauce; I think these could have been dropped fresh, as when we received them, they seemed as if they were prepared in advance and was sitting for a bit. Service was super friendly and welcoming! It's located off of Zetts, just down from Touchless Car Wash; note that this area can get jampacked and backed up on the weekends where everyone is trying to get their vehicle washed! Getting in and out can be a bit of a pain, and there are some temporary parking available. +friendly service! +located down from touchless Car Wash +off road parking available

I ordered online for takeout and got the Mercury combo (Mercury burger & cosmic fries) for 15$ and the Venus wings for 135. The mercury burger was by far my favorite item I had but i was expecting that it would be a little bigger with the price tag but I ain't mad at it, it was still a great burger nonetheless. The cosmic fries were below average and that could stem from the way the fries are made (shoestring style) but even then the seasoning on it was nothing special. The cosmic fries came with a cosmic sauce that was great and was a perfect addition to the burger. The Venus wings were solic with pretty good texture but ridiculously overpriced with a price tag of 13$ for 5 wings which is a scam, if you charging 15$ for wings they gotta be the best wings ever (they weren't). The Buffalo sauce that comes with the wings was definitely hot and the bba and ranch were decent. All in all, it's a solid spot that ! could see myself coming back to for their Mercury burger.
