It was easy to find seating around 6 p.m. on a weekend, and the restaurant wasn't too busy. The margaritas are decorated really cute. I got a torta over lettuce (since I'm GF) and specifically asked for it without meat, adding beans instead. For some reason, getting it over lettuce instead of having a tortilla costs an extra $2, which is a crazy upcharge because I would expect it to be cheaper. Even worse, the beans had meat in them. Since I specifically asked for no meat, they should have told me that the beans contained meat and suggested another option. The service was also disorganized. Three different waiters came over asking for our drink order, which was weird, and then it took a really long time to actually get our drinks because of whatever was going on.

It has been posted up in front of the Marathon gas station on old 74 for a bit now. If you were driving by you might miss it, but the buzz surrounding it was so much so, that I just had to try them out. The first time I stopped by was around 3pm on my way home and several other people were also in line. The very kind owner instantly greeted me and explained what they had that day. He took my order and they got to work. The people already waiting raved about the place and were super friendly. Everyone, including the staff, chatted and it made the wait go by quick. I ordered the chicken tacos, and the carnitas tacos. The owner had recommended just 2, but I had been accustomed to quite small tacos at other places so I got 4. Boy was he right, they were so packed full of meat that I could barely finish two! The other two made a great second meal at a later time! The corn tortillas were delicious and very authentic. Each succulent and very flavorful meat was topped with onions, cilantro and your choice of green, red, or hot sauce or all of the above. For my first time the owner recommended I try each separately with the hot sauce on the side. Also included was fresh lime and a grilled poblano pepper. Everything was amazing and I can confidently say this is the best authentic tacos I have ever had, anywhere. I cant say I have a favorite sauce because they each have sensational flavor, including the hot sauce. One try and I was hooked. I started following them on Facebook to catch certain days where they had special tacos, such as steak (which cost a tiny bit more due to the quality of the steak meat). The steak was just as amazing. They also serve breakfast. The second time I visited I did not know the extra cost until I received my order. Since it is cash only, I did not have enough. A kind person in line, who also shared the addiction to this spot, gifted me the $2 I was short. I hope to pay this forward in the future at another visit to my magical friendly neighborhood taco dealer! This isnt just great food, its an experience full of great people... who are also observing covid safety despite being outside btw.

The best tacos come from from hole in the wall restaurants or food trucks, and usually they don't speak great English. I've traveled the US and always look for AUTHENTIC Mexican food to get a taste of "home". I've searched yelp and gone to every high rated Mexican restaurant of an hrs radius to my home here in Ohio. I have no idea how this place wasn't on my list! IVANS IS AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD! You read that right! Carne asada, lime, double tortillas, cilantro, onion, THE WORKS! You NEED to try the creamy avocado sauce, the meal wouldn't be the same without it! I am a huge fan of Ivan's and was already figuring out what Ohio local to send to get QUALITY Mexican food! Service was spectacular, presentation was beautiful, packaging was clean, and there is no doubt in my mind that this truck has a long line even in the rain. To the owner and cook of Ivan's, thank you for bringing culture to this bland valley. Hopefully the other locals will learn a thing or two from you. 10/10 recommend

We didn't realize it already came with the green sauce on it and ordered a side of sauce. I also ordered the habanero sauce. It's spicy but not so spicy that it can't be handled and the habanero flavor comes through. It's also a light creamy sauce. Likely mayo added to calm the heat of the pepper. We each ordered 3 tacos and were stuffed! The tacos are filled with meat and very filling to eat. We likely could've just ordered two each. We'll be back to try out more of their menu soon.

He also enjoyed the tongue and head tacos he had. As did my daughter with the chicken tacos. The tacos had lots of onions and cilantro. Yum! The chorizo burrito was delicious! Quite greasy, as chorizo tends to be, but so, so good. I will definitely stop back soon to try more of their menu.

Definitely glad we did because it was really good. This taco truck is located at a gas station across from a Casey's. It's easy to see and there some decent parking nearby. Their menu is much bigger than I anticipated and loaded with tasty options. But I had to try the tacos first, that's my litmus test for a taco truck. If a truck can't do tacos right, they likely can't do much else right. This truck, like many, is cash only, so no cards here. I ordered one steak taco, one chicken taco, and one al pastor taco. My boss ordered a red tamale, two chicken tacos, and one steak taco. We hardly waited at all before our order was up and the price was nice. The tacos were very tasty, especially with the red sauce, which packed dome heat and good flavor. My boss liked his too, especially the chicken tacos. This is an excellent taco truck and absolutely one to check out when in the Eastgate area. I'll have to introduce my lady to it sometime because I know she'll like it too.

Pastor taco - this was really tasty, the marinade on the pastor really came through and the char of the pastor really was good when paired with the pineapple in the taco. Cabeza taco - Heck yes! I will come back here to order many cabeza tacos LOL, this was actually really good and sometimes it's really hard to get cabeza right and they do it right!
