I think this might be my first time reviewing a food truck, but alas, when the horchata is popping you have to tell the masses. And that's really all I got, but as simple as it might seem horchata really can be hit or miss and this was absolutely a HIT! I didn't actually order any food, but the gentleman I was sitting next to said his burritos was delicious. I cannot personally review the food, but I can say, for finding a random place off the side of the freeway, it is shockingly a good time sipping on a ice cold horchata while taking in the ambiance of a gas station parking lot, from a little fold up table. read more

Leaving yet another review February 2026. This place seriously never misses. The delicious tortillas, the perfect blend of spices and ingredients to give you some absolutely tasty food. My favorite go to is the carne asada quesadilla. It's always so so good. Sometimes I'll crisp it up at home in the air fryer for a slightly crunchy texture. I always look forward to eating here! Thank you Taco Rico for always staying true to your success read more

Taco Rico has some of the best tacos in Tucson. I tried an asada taco and an asada burrito and they were delicious. The prices weren't bad and the meat was really flavorful. I especially like that the tacos were topped with just cilantro and onion. The food truck is located on Ina Road right off I-10. It used to be in the Fascinations parking lot but has since moved across the street. The staff was friendly, and there are a few tables available if you want to eat there. I definitely recommend checking this one out. read more

This. Place. Is. The. Best. The Quesabirria is some of the freshest I have ever had and the consome was absolutely perfectly seasoned. Truth be told, I drank whatever consome I had left, because it was that good. It also came with some very fresh cucumbers which was an excellent pairing that helped break up the heaviness of this type of meal. A great place to stop right off the freeway making your way into town. It's about 15 minutes north of downtown Tucson. Located in a food truck under what looks to be the cover of an old gas station. They had a few tables and chairs right outside. The food are the bells and whistles! And you can't beat the prices! read more

After seeing all the great reviews, I was excited to stop by after a hike for some tacos. I don't get the hype because this place was average at best. I got 4 tacos, 2 al pastor and 2 carne asada. I enjoyed the pastor more but found both meats to be a bit bland. Service is super quick and friendly, wish they had a salsa bar but there was only some type of chili oil. This place is skippable and there are better options around. read more

An iconic lil food truck that serves up some amazing tacos. Love the pastor. The saudero is excellent too. Honestly cannot go wrong with them. Always quick to take your order & serve, even when they're busy - and they get busy. Set up outside a closed gas station w some tables & chairs to eat at, so definitely a food truck & to go. The horchata is probably the best I've ever had. read more

Best authentic taqueria/street tacos in the area, especially the Pastor! Exceptional Birria. Hot sauces are great too. Good portions for a fair price. I met Miguel the owner, a genuinely nice guy, and plan to support local business like his where they work hard to give you great food & service. read more

For a food truck- 5 stars. Ordered an al pastor (amazing) which came with some diced pineapple on top. I love when al pastor has pineapple and it's not always added so this was a nice surprise. Carne asada was perfect flavor and no fat to be found. read more

Taco Rico - Al pastor and carne asada tacos - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Delicious tacos 10/10. The carne asada tacos are amazing. Service is fast, prices are very reasonable, and there are plenty of options to choose from, including birria. They also offer drinks and decent seating. It's a food truck, but there are plenty of chairs available in the shade, or you can always order to go. The tacos stay very warm when taken to go. After visiting this place four times, I decided it was finally time to share my review. read more

Best street tacos out there. Authentic, tasty, fast, and satisfying. We tried every taco they had. Favorites were the tripa and suadero.

Giant delicious burritos with great flavors. Carne was good, suadero was great. Throw in a couple of delicious horchata and you get a great meal. If you go at night, it feels a little dark with nothing by the light escaping the food truck, but worth it! read more

If you're in the Tucson area, do yourself a huge favor and stop at Taco Rico. The meats they serve up there are some of the best I've ever had--and I've eaten tacos all over the southwest for over 50 years. The asada and pastor could very well be the best I've ever had. The salsas that came with my asada burrito and pastor taco were spot on! Spicy and flavorful. Topped it off with a bottled Mexican coke and it was the perfect meal. I will definitely be coming back whenever I'm in the Old Pueblo! read more

So on a typical Valentine's Day in Tucson, I took my wife the Ostrich Farm and then to eat at this food truck. Best Valentine's Day ever! This food truck is delicious! Quesabirria was outstanding! read more

For a little taco trailer located in a unusual place, there were some amazingly delicious tacos! Very friendly and helpful staff. They even have a little table set up if you want to eat them there. I had the tacos, al pastor on their homemade tortillas. The next time I'm in Tucson, I will definitely look for them again! read more

My boyfriend and I were passing through Tucson, Arizona on January 16th. I looked for a food spot online, saw that Taco Rico had great reviews, so I told him to pull over for us to get some food here. At first he didn't want to stop, and wanted to eat indoors, but after he saw the menu he wanted to order the cabeza. When he actually tried it, he said it was the best cabeza burrito he ever had. I had a mix of carne asada and brisket...wow, just wow; the flavor and tenderness was out of this world. I add chile verde sauce with almost everything, but it took away from the flavor of the burrito, so I just couldn't continue adding the chile verde to it, that's how good it was. Shane adds hot sauce to almost everything, but he felt the exact same way. Amazing food, a must try (or continue going everyday) if you're in the area. read more

One of the best (if not THE best) taco carts you'll find. Not only is the food insanely good, but the staff is always so friendly and kind too. My husband loves their burritos, I enjoy all the different tacos, and my somewhat picky 4 year old can always find something on the menu that he'll eat. They are normally located at the Fascinations on Ina. They put out a couple of tables underneath trees so you're able to sit there to wait or enjoy your food there. You can also grab anything to go and they pack it up really well! read more

I've had so many street tacos in my life, and other than this one place in MX- Taco Rico has the best tacos hands down. Every time I go, the flavor of the meats are phenomenal. I've tried every one and my favorites are the pastor, suadero, and cabeza. Pro tip- you can get the meats mixed in a taco if you want both and the suadero/cabeza combo is really good. I also recommend the horchata, it's homemade. The truck and tables are always clean and everyone working there has great recommendations. read more

If you would have told me that I was gonna have lunch from a taco truck in front of an adult toy store this morning, I would have been a little confused, so much so that I didn't even take food pics cause I wasn't expecting it. Hands down best Mexican/tacos in northwest Tucson/Marana. When you live in the place with the best Mexican food it's hard to believe that it's hard to find, but living on this side of town it's really hit or miss if you are gonna get true authentic street tacos, burritos and quesadillas. Taco Rico's delivered! Service was awesome and quick. Menu was to the point and not clogged up with a bunch of BS. The atmosphere was just to be expected an adult toy shop parking lot with a canopy, plastic tables and chairs but you're not here for that. Keep up the good work! read more

Had the carne asada burrito and bean/cheese burrito. Both were excellent. My new food truck choice.

The best tacos ever! It doesn't matter if you get carne asada or birria tacos. They are the best! They offer friendly service and I highly recommended them. I would give it 10 starts but there is no option on this App. read more

Tonight I had the suadero burrito and I can honestly say it's one of the best burritos I've ever had. I got it without rice but it usually comes with rice, beans, pico and cheese. The beans are definitely homemade. The flavor of the burrito is insanely good. Do not even hesitate getting food from here!! read more

Phenomenal! This place deserves serious attention. It was so good the first time we tried it we went back the next day. The people are super friendly, the service is pretty quick. What really makes it stand out are the specialty meats - where else can you get Birria, Suadero, Tripe and Cabeza? They could use another table or two and a few more chairs. Also, if you are looking for ambiance this place ain't got it - they are in the parking lot of an adult store a few steps away from very busy Ina Rd. Go for the food. Now I just need to get back here on Birria Day!! read more

Tried every taco meat and it's cooked to perfection. The flavors meld together so well, you can taste the effort that goes into them. The salsas are the perfect accompaniment. Try the super hot salsa for a nice earthy surprise with a heat that hits the back of your palate. Best tacos I've had since arriving in Arizona. read more

If you plan to eat here, I'd suggest getting it to go because they have a tent set up in front of the food truck with a few tables to eat at, but the flies won't stop harassing you, and being out in the heat isn't the most comfortable. I ordered an Al pastor burrito, and it came with a somewhat odd assortment of chopped veggies/toppings. They gave two salsas that unfortunately were too mild and didn't have much of a taste. The burrito itself was ok. The meat was nice, but maybe not seasoned as much as I would have liked. I think I've had better Al pastor at other places, but I'm glad I tried it! read more

Great tacos and homemade horchata. Prices are great. What a fantastic after game meal in the park. They had tables and chairs and the food came out quickly with lots of choices of salsas. They had red, green and pastor salsas. Everything was great! read more

10/10 every time, my favorite taco truck in the country easily. Al pastor always slaps and the onions are grilled to perfection.

Asada tacos( cilantro, onions and salsa) with lime and to the side: grilled onions, grilled Serrano pepper and radish. Well seasoned and good amount for a taco including 2 tortillas per taco. The tortillas were delicious! They have a limited menu but still good choices with burros,tacos, quesadillas, and weekends have those with Birria. They also have coffee and Flan (yummy ) They do accept cards which was a relief. Clean place to eat. Have to come back for the birria. read more

Taco Rico - Mexican food. - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Great NW side taco truck! I have been a few times now. All their standard tacos are great, but my favorite is the Birria! Birria is only available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so plan accordingly. It's a little rough sitting outside in the heat around 5pm when the shade canopy offers no protection and the ands are all over the grounds. Take it to go someplace cooler if it's in the summer. read more

Excellent tacos . Fresh , hearty , salsas are great . Service was great highly recommend . Prices were a bit high for me but worth it .

This is a food truck, but I had heard this place was supposedly awesome. I had their most popular burrito and it was good, but nothing like the hype. The service was quick and friendly. May go back and give it another shot because of the great service, but I'll order something different off the menu. read more

We were looking for street tacos and wanted something fast and easy when we left the National Park. This place is amazing! Easy stop with some outdoor tables. The people working the food truck were kind and very fast. We had 5 kids ages (11-19). If you don't like spicy, get the salsas on the side. Go here! Don't over think this! The tacos are amazing and the homemade Horchata hit the spot! read more

Hidden gem in Tucson. I hate to give Taco Rico such a positive review because then everybody will visit and I'll have to wait on some of the best food in Tucson. Taco Rico is packed into a 6x12 mobile food palace but don't let the size fool you, these guys pack a huge punch in flavor and quality. They need a brick and mortar it's that good, let's make it happen. The prices are great and the people are the best. There's no reason to not stop by unless you're allergic to great food. Cleanliness and al fresco seating with the cool breeze couldn't be better. Location is in Fascinations parking lot with easy access from east or west bound Ina Rd just East of the I-10 Freeway. read more

Finding an authentic taco spot up north is a little harder to do but Taco Rico did not disappoint! We ordered two chicken tacos, two tacos al pastor, one chicken taco, one cheese quesadilla, and one chicken burrito for a total of about 33 bucks. My favorite personally was the carne asada tacos, they were delicious! The cheese quesadilla was nothing too special and was just another ordinary quesadilla. The al pastor was decent and the chicken burrito was decent as well. I feel like I would have enjoyed the burrito a little more with carne asada instead of chicken! The customer service was excellent and they're always super friendly! It is a taco truck but they do have a little table with some provided shade if you wanted to eat there. Overall a decent little spot! read more
