    Maybe I'm used to lack luster and small tacos but Tacodeli blew me away! We came by for some breakfast tacos on a Friday morning which was perfect because there was minimal wait. I got 3 tacos thinking they would be small but boy was I wrong 2 would have been plenty!! I got a bacon egg and cheese, one with avocado and bacon and one with beans and eggs. All of them weee delicious and the all the salsas they gave paired perfectly. The chips were also thick and had a great crunch. Overall I was very impressed!!

    The service was fast and kind. The ambiance both inside and on the patio were awesome. We really enjoyed hanging out here for a quick bite. I would definitely get the Al pastor and puerco verde again! The breakfast one was good but nothing to write home about in my opinion. But I'm excited to come back and try some more!

    Work sent me to Houston for the week and I was excited to see what Yelp could help me find near our H-Town site. Having been a former Austinite I was hella stoked to see there was a Tacodeli nearby and I am happy to report this location keeps the quality and service I am familiar with from my visits to their other locations. So let us kick things off with the service: it was stellar! Walking in I was greeted and as I perused the menu the counter worker asked if I had been in before, I told her never to this location and she said "you didn't look familiar" showing me that this staff gets to know their customers. Every interaction I was apart of or witnessed was top tier customer service and it made my visit all the more enjoyable. I went with the Vaquero, Jess Special, and Papas Egg y Cheese, my usual breakfast taco go-to(s) here and they were all excellent. All three were made fresh and quite filling. Paired with their Salsa Dona, this breakfast couldn't have made me happier. Parking is super easy as there's a sizable lot just to the left of the building for businesses in the area. A quick half block stroll down the sidewalk and it was taco time! This location also has a patio for outdoor dining, but it was a chilly October morning when I visited so I opted to sit inside. Although it is not often I find myself in Houston I can confidently say that next time I am that way, I will absolutely be visiting Tacodeli once again as this location knocks it out of the park every step of the way.

    The vaquero has scrambled eggs, roasted bell peppers, jack cheese and grilled corn. It tastes more of bell peppers than grilled corn. The sirloin, egg, and cheese had plump cubes of meat. I thought it was strange how the meat was piled only on one side. The (2) Saturday -7am batches of queso were really runny and, per staff, weren't expected to congeal for a few hours. The flavor was really not there, so we were offered the option of getting a refund or a guacamole as a substitute. We chose the guacamole, which was more tart than expected and probably needed some salt to balance the flavors. The salsas seemed to be at the end of the container as it took some quick pumping to get bursts of salsa onto the tacos.

    I was not to sure what to expect when walking into Tacodeli. I mean it's a taco, and its H-Town! So its gotta be ok, right? Well, yup, it was ok, nothing more, maybe less. And upon arrival, after examining the food, the thing I frowned on was what I liked best. The Good - Though an interesting twist on Mexican Street Corn (bacon, onions, & no crema),... it turned out to be pretty tasty. I think a alternative traditional offering would be a great gesture. I mean for those who come looking for Mexican corn, can get it, and those that want the creative alternative can have it. The place was clean and cold, so bring a sweater for those anemic types. Me, I love the cold!!! The salsas are pretty good, so definitely recommend a splash. The creamy jalapeno is my favorite. The habenero could use some additional flavor, like mango or pineapple. Also, they do have a soda fountain, so if you are a drinker, you'll be happy there. The Bad - well, I had 3 different tacos to try. And in tasting, I ate portions of the meat only to check flavor. (A) mole (b) pork canitas (c) MxCity Steak. (A) has a semblance of mole flavor. Just enough to give someone a light hint of what mole taste like. In the end though the better of the 3 Amigos, still lacking authentic flavor on the heavy side. (B) and (C) ,...yeah...umm,...how do you say Bland without saying bland and no flavor. Like going to Cancun for some cervezas and tacos, and you get there and at the beach there is only a blonde caucasian cabana boy in an white Izod and khaki shorts serving ham & cheese sandwiches and Tea. Seriously though, the meat did not have any flavor, lacking even salt & pepper. Also, no lime slices for street tacos anywhere. You have to steal them out of the drink station. There you will find sliced limes for drinks, but they'll do. Another observation, who plays english pop music at locale promoting to be a taco place? You get better mexican music vibes playing in the background as you shop HEB. No Shakira, no Pitbull, No Selena or even La Bamba. C'mon!!! The Ugly - The Price!!! Oh my Little Red Corvette!!! $25 for 3 tacos, 1 cup of street corn, and a soft drink. That is like $5 an item!!! Seriously!!! In short, I'll just troll for taco trucks in the area and risk eating tasty tacos while sweating!!! Until next time,... Happy Yelpin!!!

    Holy mole that was a good taco. Really enjoyed the Pollo En Mole. The Happy Taco was kinda dry without the queso but there's sauce to add.Pollo En Mole

    Queso & Chips

    I don't know who named this place but whatever, all that matters it what it taste like, and Tacodeli is great! First, I love there is ample parking because that is a rare thing in these here parts. It's counter service, and the worker was really helpful answering my husband's questions. As for me, I don't have questions. I like to come prepared with what I want to order and get it done. We ordered the chips and queso to start. The chips were fresh (yes they are in a bag but they are really good) and the queso was some of the best I have had but I still like Torchy's queso a tad bit better. Sorry, not sorry. I got the Pollo Fantastico, which has a green chile sauce and crema on it, and of course on a flour tortilla. It was so delicious and the tortilla was thin, but not so thin that everything came busting out. I will order this one again! I also got the Shrimposito on flour. It has a chipotle sesame adobo and queso fresco, but something about the way it all tasted was not to my liking. I mean, it wasn't awful, it just wasn't as good as I had hoped it would be. The tacos are smaller, and had I not eaten chips and queso, I probably could have had 3-4 tacos total. Fairly fast and super delicious, and now one of my favorites!

    I've been wanting to try this place for so long, especially knowing they offer vegetarian tacos. Unfortunately, the actual food didn't match up to the expectations. The only dish I felt it was good was the chicken tortilla soup, there is actually a generous amount of chicken and avocado in the soup. The tacodeli bowl was a big disappointment. They charge you extra $4 for protein, and the amount of meat you get was sad. Nothing special. The vegetarian tacos: FRONTERA FUNDIDO CAULIBELLA and space cowboy both tastes similar and bland, again nothing stand out. Price is on the higher end, but food is just okay.

We're…read morefrom San Diego, so we know good carne asada and Tacos Frontera is where it's at in Houston! Definitely a taste of home outside of San Diego and Tijuana. Finding authentic TJ flavor in Texas (not Tex-Mex) was a welcome surprise! Our carne asada was grilled al carbón and you could taste the char! Juicy carne full of flavor, thin but strong and tasty tortillas (they really held everything together well), perfect chunky guac (not too fancy or full of fillers--IYKYK), and a variety of delicious salsas and hot sauces! An added bonus was the complimentary chicharrones! I'll take those over tortilla chips any day! The dining room isn't very big, but it's clean and has good a/c....there's an outdoor patio as well.

Limited indoor seating, and since it gets busy we usually order to go. When I did dine in it was nice experience, feels authentic like eating a local spot in Mexico. You have the Mexican cokes available, the style of tacos has a big scoop of guac which makes them a bit unique compared to other spots that charge extra for guac. Their tacos are big too! Not the mini small taco tortillas you get in a food truck. These are big tacos so getting 2 is enough for me. I've tried their Asado tacos and their quesadillas and their quesabirrias all 10/10.

There's even a security guard on site, which only adds to the impression that this place is fire. So when I happened to drive by on a 100-degree afternoon and found no line, I took it as a sign to finally give it a try. The small parking lot adjacent to the truck was nearly empty, except for a few other patrons who probably had the same idea. Ordering was simple and to the point. The menu keeps things straightforward: a selection of meats served as tacos or plates with a handful of sides. I ordered two barbacoa tacos with salsa verde. Less than two minutes after placing my order, they were in my hands. Fast service on a scorching day is always appreciated. With no seating available, I retreated to the comfort of my car to eat. Based on the amount of grease packed into these tacos, I would recommend doing the same. Eating them while standing could end with your shirt becoming an unintended side dish. One thing to note: don't count on a generous napkin supply. I realized after returning to my car that none were included. Consider keeping a few emergency fast-food napkins in your glove compartment. Those leftover Taco Bell napkins may finally fulfill their destiny. The barbacoa was flavorful, the salsa verde complemented it well, and overall, the tacos were overall tasty. That said, I left somewhat underwhelmed considering the crowds I routinely see gathered here during lunch and dinner hours. Perhaps I'm missing the standout item that keeps customers lining up daily. Even so, if you happen to have cash in your pocket and find yourself craving authentic tacos, this truck is certainly worth a stop.
