    Tacos al pastor
    Brennan T.

    Review #24 for 2020. Great food! Taco Veloz is located in the parking lot of Standard Restaurant Supply along Fairview. Service is very nice and quick with no issues. Ordered two tacos al pastor and a carne asada super burrito, and everything tasted great. Salsa was good too! There's covered open seating, but I chose to just stand to wait for my order and took my food home to eat. Checked this place out because some friends recommended it. I'd definitely go back since the food is good, service is nice, and prices are reasonable. Can't ask for more! Happy to support a small business!

    This might be the best taco truck in town. They are on point with those flavors and great quality.

    Taco Veloz is a taco truck located right along bustling Fairview Ave. situated in the parking lot adjacent to A1Games & Pawn. They are in a prime location for a ton of drive-by traffic and even have a nice tented area with tables for dining on site. I do so love a good taco truck. That said, I didn't actually order tacos as the allure of melted cheese proved irresistible --and so, a chicken quesadilla was my order of the day. And, it was a solid quesadilla--not outstanding, lacking a bit of flavor, but overall a satisfying choice. My dining companion ordered their Carne Asada which was also reportedly good but not great. The service was top notch (the owner/chef had never heard of Yelp so we had a good time showing him all the glowing reviews that directed us here--and he seemed delighted to see them). I think, overall, given that most of the reviews center on their tacos--I need to come back and actually try their tacos. This leaves me to ponder whether or not this is sort of an instance where an unspoken rule (that shall now be spoken...or at least, written) is in order: When one dines at a taco truck--order the tacos. We'll see as I plan to go back and do just that--until then, 3 stars it is.

    They have moved so don't use the 6713 address... it2s 8620 Fairview ave. They are in front of Idaho Swim and Sun Shop

    This place was rated #3 in the state of Idaho for tacos so of course while in Boise I had to go try it! Took some doing because the truck has moved. It's now located at 8620 W. Fairview Ave. in front of Idaho Swim and Sun Shop. Started with the Adobada and Carnitas then went back for the Pastor! The Pastor was amazing!!! Well worth the hassle to track them down!

    Tacos + beer, cant go wrong. Beer was not purchased at this location, please drink responsibly.

    Great tacos!! This taco truck is on Fairview, ive always wondered if it was a legit place for tacos, after reading some reviews on yelp I had to check it out myself. I ended up getting tacos the first time, double tortillas, just the way they should be, tasty meat, from asada to lengua to carnitas, all very tasty. This may be weird, but to me the refried beans, if you get the number 1 meal you get sides of bean and rice, were the STAR of my meal, they tasted so freaking good!! Second time i had their burrito, wasnt bad, but i felt like the meat ratio was lacking. This spot has been a current stop for me since i first ate there. Ive stopped 3 times this month alone and will be visiting this taco truck many more time!

    Street tacos!

    Great place for authentic street tacos. I'm from Texas and I've had my share of tacos and these are some of the best I've had. Cheap too. Get the tacos al pastor.

    Me and my husband love this taco stand!! I love their double tortilla tacos. The lady and her husband are super nice and sweet! Their meT is nice and juicy not crunchy or hard like at other taco stands. Definitely quality food!!

    5 tacos, beans & rice ^_^

    The burrito is perfect. Nothing fancy, just quality ingredients and good, not overwhelming flavors.

The burger and fries are the closest thing to heaven I've ever had, and you won't want to miss them right now. I honestly don't know how they do it. Note, that this means this is the best burger in the state, it is the best burger in comparison to any in California or any other surrounding state. There was not a bad bite. It is as if Jesus has blessed the chef and your taste buds, it is a literal masterpiece. Everything is made with care, you will experience euphoria and what a burger made with care actually tastes like. Juds, Big Bun, the new In N' Out Burger, are good in their own respect, but not even the same echelon as Hood Burger. Hood Burger is on top of the pyramid, everything else is just ok. Everything is made to perfection. I am not sure if it is because they are in a food truck and not an upscale restaurant, but these guys truly care about their product. If you want a cheap burger with the typical result go to one of the other local places, if you want the best burger for around $15 go now. Like get up and go, what are you doing still reading this, go.

The menu has a few things you can order from burritos, tacos, tortas and other fun items. We ordered a Carne Asada Burrito and it has rice, beans, meat of choice & lettuce and avocado it was pretty good. We got some tacos as well and not sure if she mixed up another ordered but we were short 3 tacos on our order and that was a bummer.. I was really looking forward to them. Their asada, carnitas, el pastor were all really good and authentic flavor and loved that the pastor had the pineapple chunks as well. One thing I did dislike was I asked about chips order and it said $5 when I asked her if I can just have a couple, she was a bit confused and asked the lead there. Apparently they didn't have chips in their truck and had to go find them. That should have been my no thank you but I figured ohh let's give them a try. Once we got to our house and saw the $5 chips I was honestly a bit upset they were store bought nacho chips. Tacos are $2.50 I don't understand why chips are $5 and they aren't even like your traditional Mexican chips or something along those lines. That was my only downfall to this place but those are just chips. Their food was honestly good no doubt about it when we were ordering they had a few people eating there and a few to go orders. Maybe take them off the menu or make little baggies and purchase chips from a Mexican store or make your own tostadas..
