I'll cover that below - Amazing margaritas made with lime juice - Excellent prices including daily specials FOOD: - Outstanding taco options including lengua (tender), nopales, etc. - Food portions are LARGE - Plenty of vegetarian options - Fresh ingredients - Elote and Esquites No cons with this spot. Must try in Gastonia. I am looking forward to going back and trying new stuff.

The restaurant is clean and casual with friendly and attentive staff. The food was well seasoned and delicious. My steak was a little tough and gristly but the flavor was there. Everything else was on point. No chips and salsa was offered while we waited. This was my second visit here and I will go again.

I tried one tongue taco, but the texture was too soft for my liking. I also had one intestine taco, which was very chewy and had more fat on it than I'm used to. I've had intestine tacos at Fonda Mexicana on South Boulevard, and theirs are amazingly crunchy with little to no fat attached, so that's what I was expecting. I also had two beef tacos. Overall, the tacos were decent, but still around a 3-star experience for me. That being said, the service I received from my server, Lujan, was absolutely amazing! She was very friendly, kind, attentive, and provided excellent customer service throughout my visit. Thank you, Lujan, for making the dining experience enjoyable.

Love the atmosphere here. We started off with the pretzel appetizer with beer cheese. Huge pretzel! Also, delicious. There were a few items on the menu they were out of. I think it was about 3 or so sides not available, but having never been before we understand after a probably busy Saturday night, they would run out of some popular sides. Not an issue. Maybe keep this in mind if you visit on a Sunday. We tried the chicken sandwich with cheese curds(a good sub for the tots), the Cuban, Tacos ( had the pork and chicken) and a Philly shroom sandwich. All terrific. My son loved his Philly with the grit cake side. He said it was the tastiest mushroom sandwich he has had. This place has a lot of amazing beers offered and people were taking advantage of the beer menu. We didn't try the beer, but we were glad we tried the food here. After lunch, we had a lot of energy for walking downtown. Hoping to taste some of the sides they were out of next time.

There was no line so I ordered 2 shrimp tacos and a barbacoa burrito. Preparation was quick and food was ready in less than 10 minutes. The shrimp tacos were so good! Definitely did not expect the flavor that they packed, and I was mad that I only got two. They are very tiny street taco size, so if you're looking for a meal you would probably want 4 or more depending on your appetite. Other than being disappointed about the size of the tacos, my only feedback for the truck would be that there are no prices listed on the menu. This is a disadvantage because many people order based on not only the description of a dish but also how much it costs. It's a lot of trouble to ask for pricing on 3, 4, 5 menu items you're considering, especially if there's a line, when they could make it easy and put the prices on a sheet at the least. Other than that, I enjoyed the food and would purchase more tacos if I ever come across this truck again.

My husband loves the burritos and the sauce. Oh, and the freshly made churros are super good. I also enjoy the horchata (rice milk) almost every time I come. Thank you for the consistently amazing customer service as well. April 9th, 2024... I just enjoyed the Taco Tuesday special of three tacos with a soda for $5.99, and I thoroughly enjoyed the tacos al pastor (pork) with extra cilantro. My husband is more of a fan of the asada (steak) tacos , and he loves the red sauce because it has a nice kick. It's great that in 2024, you still have options to enjoy something different that won't break the bank. I was just pondering how interesting it is that there can be many places with similar cuisines yet be so different. What I may enjoy here, another person may enjoy elsewhere, and I think that's the beauty of food.

I politely said, "Sorry, that doesn't look like a full scoop. I can wait for more." Her response was, "If you want more, it's a double." So instead of getting a proper serving, I was basically told to pay an extra $7 for the amount that should have been served in the first place. I declined, paid about $13, and walked away with a bowl that looked sad enough that I took a photo. For a new location, this was a terrible first impression.
