I was in town for a conference, and whenever I'm in Texas I make it a point to eat brisket and…read moretacos. The farther south I get, the more tacos seem to win. This particular Monday evening, I struck out at a couple of places, everything was closed. One of those moments where you realize, "You're exactly where you're supposed to be, even if you didn't plan on it." When I walked up, the young woman working was sitting and visiting with who I initially thought was family. I apologized for interrupting what I assumed was a family dinner, and she immediately explained they were regular customers and close friends, and that she'd be more than happy to help me. That set the tone right away. Tacos look a little different in North Carolina where I live, so I had questions. She never made me feel rushed or out of place. Instead, she pulled up photos, explained the menu, and walked me through the different meats and options. I ended up ordering a mix of five different tacos on both corn and flour tortillas, and decided to step outside my comfort zone with a couple of selections I don't usually try. She even gave me a heads up about the tripas, letting me know it had a different taste and that I might not like it. I've heard my Hispanic friends rave about it for years, so I took the gamble, and I'm glad I did. Everything was excellent. The customer service really stood out. I had ordered my food to go, and it was a cold night. I was only wearing a short sleeve shirt, and without hesitation she told me to go wait in my car, that it was too cold to stand outside, and that she would bring the food out to me. She genuinely wanted me to stay warm, and sure enough, she brought everything right out once it was ready. That small gesture made a big impression. I felt like a genuinely valued customer, almost like an extended family member rather than just someone passing through. Don't let the fact that this is a small food truck in a parking lot fool you. This is absolutely a place worth stopping for, and one you don't want to miss. It's now on my "must stop when I'm in the area" list. Thank you for a great meal and an even better experience.

I love that I can taste the meat; it's not super greasy either, but still flavorful and ready pretty quickly maybe 10 min wait. It's kinda tucked in a parking lot but plenty of space to park and if you want they have some tables out there. I usually grab it to go though, it's a nice little treat at a great price point.

My eggs were perfectly done over easy and were delicious with the home fries on a homemade tortilla. Prices are very reasonable as well.

The food is absolutely delicious no question about that. Unfortunately, the ordering process and…read morewait times have been a recurring issue during our visits. The last few times we've come, we've waited nearly an hour before receiving our food. On our most recent visit, we decided not to stay after overhearing a nearby table mention they had been waiting almost an hour just to receive service. The quality of the food keeps us wanting to come back, but the current layout and ordering system don't seem to work efficiently for the space and volume of customers. I think some adjustments to the ordering and service process could make a huge difference in the overall customer experience. I truly hope improvements are made because the food itself is worth the visit.

She then said they have no picadillo. Weird because the taco salad had a picadillo option. I guess she couldn't just do picadillo with some rice and beans à la carte. Rice was bland, beans were mid. My taco salad inedible. The salad was mostly lettuce. The steak fajitas kinda chewy and not very flavorful. The carne guisada looked ok. The only thing that was decent was probably the chips and salsa. If you prefer a blander taste (everybody is different) then this is the place for you. Lots of older folks were there so obviously it would be ideal in that case.

The cheese enchiladas are the best I've ever had. However, the person with me ordered three beef tacos à la carte. The server repeatedly referred to them as fajita tacos. We corrected her three times, and each time she responded, "Yes, beef tacos." When the food arrived, it was three fajitas in flour tortillas. The menu doesn't list fajita tacos at all, only a fajita plate for about $13 that includes rice and beans. After paying, we finally saw the receipt because the restaurant uses handheld payment devices. We discovered we had been charged for the fajita plate, nearly twice the cost of three beef tacos, yet we received neither rice nor beans. To make matters worse, this restaurant also charges customers for using a credit card and for to-go cups. Mistakes happen, but being served the wrong item and charged significantly more for it left a very negative impression.

Just be aware they pretty much speak zero English, but with a lot of hand signals and reference pictures from my phone we got all the communication out. Just so you know they do not make their own tortillas corn or flour they get them from HEB. I didn't like the flour last time, but I do like the corn because they grease them well and fry them well. The corn fungus tasted earthy and creamy at the same time. It was soft like avocado. I've had his asada in the past and his pastor. He Seasons his meat and vegetables very well and not just with salt. This corn mushroom had excellent flavor. He added lettuce, tomato, avocado and a white like Cotija cheese. It was heavy. He writes every order down in this little notebook. He told me he sold like 14 of them today to the Mexican workers that are working on Tractor Supply. I told him he needs more tables, and I think he understood me; he may get one more and put it behind his trailer. He lives in New Braunfels and told me he loves this area moving here from Austin where his kids still live.
