Al pastor tacos
Janine T.

Great al pastor tacos. I was going to save some for later but couldn't resist! My friend who is a native of the area is always raving about this truck. At $2.50 for a loaded taco, you can't beat the value. The truck now has an indoor area for seating, but all of the cooking happens outside. Parking is limited.

Great tacos, good spot to go to if you're kind of in a rush and hungry. They never take longer than around 15 minutes to make your order and this is only when it's busy, of course when they're not they're pretty quick! Ps: the steak is way better than the chicken

The tacos arent bad for being in Delaware but the rice tasted old and it was extremelyover cooked.

I grew up right across the highway from here. You can even type the address into Google Maps and get a peak at my parent's backyard. It's a shame this place wasn't here while I actually had a 302 area code. My adoration for tacos has been a long standing one and I can only imagine how much more brighter my turmoil/angst filled teenage years would have been if I had had this fine taco truck right across the street. *Sigh* At least I had Wawa's . This spot use to be some type of hardware/auto shop for as long as I can remember. Google Maps still shows an image of what use to be there. But sometime in 2009 a taco truck parked itself in front of the "house", which was turned into a Mexican restaurant, along with a sign of Bart Simpson dreaming of a taco announcing "Rivera Taco Express". The moment I caught glimpse of this I did a quick u-turn and pulled up to try an Al Pastor taco. I had no high expectations of a eating a taco in the land of suburbia that's known for strip malls and tax-free shopping. But this was a simple delight. Like it was REALLY, REALLY good. And really really cheap. And really really fresh. Oh my! I haven't ventured to try anything else, because that al pastor taco was love at first sight. And I'm just an al pastor feign who refuses to break their habit. Someone else can hit it with a review on the other selections. I'm sticking with my al pastor :D

Service was exceptional. We were greeted when we walked in. We ordered take out and sat at the bar…read moreto enjoy drinks while we waited for our food. They have a huge bar in the middle of the tables. The atmosphere was hospitable, perfect for a Wednesday evening. The drinks were refreshing. Once we got home we ate just about every bite of the food. I very much enjoyed the red house hot sauce! Looking forward to going back.

I always drive by this place on Saturday night and it's always super busy so I decided to try it…read moreout. There was security at the door but he let us in with no issues. The hostess was extremely nice and welcoming. There was a cover charge, but she asked if we were locals and we told her yes, and they didn't charge us. I see why this place is always busy! The food was excellent. The chimichangas are the best in the area in my opinion. Complimentary chips and salsa is always a plus and they refilled them as well (always appreciated). The drinks were strong and made well (also greatly appreciated). We had a few different servers so we didn't get to really talk to anyone too much but they were all very stoic. My boyfriend and I always like to chat it up with the servers to get a real feel of the place. The restaurant business is tough and we respect that. Fortunately, Casa mariachi definitely earned our respect that night. Can't wait to return.
