Soft launch night 2
Alyssa C.

My husband has been following Taco Bronco on Instagram for a bit waiting for them to open behind Batch, so we were thrilled to find out we could pop in to their soft launch this weekend. The truck is situated behind Batch so there's plenty of room and tables (although I suspect they'll need more tables outside ASAP!) and it's a great location for meeting up with a group or spending time outside. The menu was decently sized, with six taco options, and an additional taco special, three sandwhich options, several sides, and a few nacho options as well. I was happy to see that even for a barbecue truck, there were some vegan options on the menu--well done! They even have some share platters if you're looking to do more of a barbecue experience. My husband ordered the tres hombres platter which includes three tacos of your choice, chips with queso, rice, and beans. He picked the jefe (brisket), javelina (carnitas), and verraco (boar sausage) and we really enjoyed them all. These tacos are pretty decently sized, and packed with fillings that make them more of a meal that some other taco spots do. The brisket one included a yummy potato hash and a creamy sauce, I think that would be my go to next time for sure. Super tender, nice bark, can't beat it. The rice was good, the beans were super flavorful and a bit spicy, and chips and queso are always good around here. The meal was a great deal--$16 total when each taco alone is $5. Really enjoyed this meal and the service was great. Looking forward to popping in the future!

The Tres Hombres Platter: Three tacos of your choice served with rice, beans, chips and queso

Review: Hot new place that opened up behind Batch Craft Beer & Kolaches. Highly recommended it's a must try, that being said these are not your traditional Mexican Tacos these are a BBQ meets Tex/Mex mashup. I got the Tres Hombres Platter (Description Below) and was blown away by the price value and the flavor profile. The Javelina Taco was delicious the pork was juicy, flavorful, that toasted cheese took it to the next level and the pickled onions gave it a nice freshness and acidity. The Birria Taco was unique not your typical smoked lamb or consomme however their twist was still delicious, juicy and paired with their bronco sauce just elevated it. Finally my personal favorite the El Jefe Taco was pure nothing but perfect. Their brisket was on point, the potato hash was the perfect pairing and finished off with queso can't get better than that. The chips and queso were good, their rice was great and their beans were decent. Rating: 9/10 The Tres Hombres Platter: Three tacos of your choice served with rice, beans, chips and queso The Javelina: Crispy smoked pork carnitas, mesquite roasted pecans, Bronco Sauce, toasted cheese, cilantro and pickled onion El Jefe: Sliced brisket, cactus and potato hash topped with queso Birria Taco: Smoked Lamb with Consomme

El Jefe

The brisket burrito of my dreams!!!!!!! Super cute taco truck from the micklethwait fam, using the BBQ in tacos, nachos, quesadillas, and the aforementioned BURRITO. Y'all this burrito is called "El Jefe" and it has your choice of meat and potato hash inside, is smothered with queso and sour cream, guac, hot sauce, and homemade pickles on the side. I died and went to heaven. It's a fork and knife kind of situation for sure, but it packs in the flavor and is worth every bite. I'll be back to try the other items for sure!!

El Jefe burrito - A plate of Mexican food, likely a burrito, is placed on a wooden outdoor table. The dish is topped with chopped green onions and sliced jalapeños, with visible red sauce underneath. A small clear plastic cup containing a light-colored beverage is positioned next to the plate. In the background, a red taco trailer with illuminated windows and the sign 'Taco Bronco' is visible, set against a backdrop of trees and a gravel ground, indicating an outdoor dining setting at a food truck location.

This fantastic food truck is located in the backyard of Saddle Up. They offer tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and nachos- including veggie options. My sister and I split the El Jefe burrito. It was huge and very tasty!! Shredded brisket and a potato hash inside, topped with queso, sour cream, pico, and jalapeños with guac on the side. Omg just typing this makes me want to go back and order another one. FYI- they only accept credit cards.

Great food! Two of us shared The Tres Hombres platter with the el Jefe, Javelina and the lamb taco special. Loved all the tacos but the el Jefe was our favorite! Loved the beans and rice! Plenty of food for two for only $16.

Probably my favorite restaurant in Austin. Get the Lamb special if you can! The Nachos are also insane!

So good that we ate here twice on our trip!…read more Made me a believer of cactus. I thought it was their way of catering to vegetarians. I was wrong.... Amazing!

This place definitely lived up to the hype! I am in LOVE! Eating at so many taco papa mama shops in…read moreSA, my standard of tacos are pretty high. I have not found a taco place that was phenomenal until I tried this place! The vibes take you back to Mexico with authentic tacos served simple, straight forward, and let the taco speak for itself! We were downtown for a concert at the Moody Theater and were hungry so we decided to walk a short 9 mins to Taqueria De Diez! The best decision made! Full disclosure... the establishment is located down a very DARK creepy alley (the kind in the movies where you shouldn't go down to get) but after overcoming that fear... this will be the best decision you make! Your tummy will thank you! Follow the outside "TACO here" sign. Go through the door and walk straight... this will get you through the line. Lucky for us on a Saturday night at 10:30pm there wasn't a super long line. We managed to grab two seats to chow down our tacos. You will be able to see the chefs cook the carne asada on the grill and the Al pastor on the spit roast being cut to be put in tacos. The smell was amazing and you know you're at a legit place! Ordering: -Check out their menu while waiting in line so you know what to order when it's your turn. -place order at register. They accept visa, Mastercard, Venmo, cash, but does NOT accept AMEX. - grab your drinks if you purchased some. Mexica soda, horchata, jimicama drinks, water , etc - give your ticket to the expeditor and tell them to go or dine there. The expeditor will ask you cilantro, onions, and salsa on a taco? Say yes. It's a must. The expeditor will tell the chefs to assemble your tacos. (I'm seriously so impress with how efficient and quick their service goes. We waited maybe 5-10 mins and got 5 tacos and chips/salsa. There was about 8 ppl in front of us but the lines go quick. If you ordered chips and salsa then you will get the chips from the cashier and the salsa from the expeditor. * 1 Al pastor taco on flour 4/5: love the fresh pineapples on it! The Al pastor had crispy pieces and was super tasty! It was really tasty. There were pieces of meat that was dry but the salsa helped and pineapple. Season was really good! I was in awed with how tasty it is! Definitely best Al pastor in ATXi had! * 1 Campechano on flour 5/5: wow best of both worlds! I had this taco second and loved the combo flavor! Juiciness of the carne asada and crispy frol the Al pastor. * carne asada on flour 5/5: juicy perfectly seasoned and love the green sauce on it! Sauce was creamy and paired well with the taco. It was so so freaking good! The flour tortilla is super thin and let the meats stand out. Loaded Smokey taco and was differently the best carne asada I've ever had! After trying the carne asada I definitely think it's better than Al pastor! I'm glad I tried the Al pastor taco first before the carne because I think the carne asada would have outshine the Al pastor if I had it first. It was a great end to the last taco! * 1 VOLCAN- couldn't try because it was sold out * chips and salsa 4/5: chips crispy and not oily. Salsa was super spicy but good. All tacos come with onions cilantro and salsa with no additional cost. Overall do I recommend this place? I truly wish I tried this place 5 yrs ago when I moved to ATX! I truly highly recommend this place! Do not wait 5 yrs to go try this place or you will be full of regrets! It's a simple taco but made right with complex balance and flavors! I love love love it and now will be thinking about these tacos! Highly recommended! Prices are reasonable and the tacos are made with love!

Tucked away in a building across from Popeye's, this charming little restaurant doesn't have a wide…read morevariety to choose from--but what they offer is pretty special and definitely worth a visit. I ordered 2 steak tacos and horchata, both very delicious. The horchata is milky and sweet but not crazy sweet, and topped off with cinnamon. The steak tacos came out pretty hot, fresh from the grill. I got them on corn tortillas and I'm glad I did: idk if they make them in house but somebody in some house is making these because they definitely aren't store bought, and if they are I want to know where! I tried the orange habanero and creamy serrano salsas. The habanero was spicy off the bat, while the serrano had more of a lingering burn. Both paired well with the steak. They have a little bar, too, though I did not imbibe this time. Seems like they have a decent selection of agave spirits, and even Campari behind the bar (iykyk). Give them a shot, and thank the ladies in the kitchen.

Decided to come in and the cashier greeted us and was really nice and patient because of questions with the menu. The Taco Bueno is what I had ordered and requested no potato. Sat down and after a few seconds, chips & salsa was delivered. Then after a few minutes, the food came. Quick service for sure and the food, AMAZING. Anyone reading this, try this place out and if u like it, come back! Cuz we are for sure =D
