This is the absolute best taco truck in Raleigh ! It's right beside Fresh ice cream s

The BEST food truck tacos!! Tortillas appear to be homemade, the sauces are delicious - red sauce is very spicy, green is flavorful with a slight kick. read more

I had one barbacoa and one pork taco and they were both outstanding. Some of the best tacos in Raleigh for sure.

Located off of Glenwood Ave in Raleigh! Per usual, I got 3 tacos: Asada, Barbacoa, and Pastor! I also got their agua de Jamaica (hibiscus) Tacos were good, Jamaica came in a giant cup, and the salsa roja was lowkey fire read more

Hands down the absolute Best Tacos I've ever had! My brother's in laws own an authentic Mexican restaurant. Even they agree. This is the kind of street food you would find in Mexico so if you're looking for Taco hell, this isn't for you. It's the real deal! They're the nicest people and the food is always delicious. The ambiance is what you would expect at a food truck that serves hungry workers who miss home cooked meals. It's always packed! read more

Love this truck! Their chicken tacos supreme are amazing. Don't forget to squeeze that lime on your tacos.

This place don't deserve a single star. I found them on Google and went because of the positive reviews plus their $2 taco online special. I ordered 4 tacos (carne asada) tacos not only they advertise wrong prices but also their food taste nasty! I got greased up tortillas that had a weird flavor and the meat had no flavor whatsoever. Also got watered down salsa in small plastic containers barely halfway filled. Waste of time and money. My order went straight to the garbage! go buy tacos somewhere else this place is not it. read more

Tacos Abarca - Steak Taco - Tacos Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Must.go.now Found this place on yelp while we were visiting from out of town. Fast and pleasant service. Prices are reasonable as well. We got carne asada tacos and chicken tacos and typically the carne can be hit or miss with the fat. This place has really good meat- I didn't have any fat in my 4 tacos. They sauces are HOT but very yummy. Check this place out! read more

This is one of the best taco spots I've been too! The sizes of the tacos are a bit bigger than the usual street tacos. I got three tacos two chicken and one al pastor for $8. The only downside is that I wish the al pastor had pineapples on it. Other than that, these tacos were flavorful and filling! I didn't wait too long to get them and I went on a Saturday around noon ish. The employees were nice and efficient. 5/5 recommendation! read more

Amazing! These are delicious, authentic, Mexican tacos! You must try the al pastor and chorizo tacos. It's a food truck in a gas station parking lot off of Glenwood. I park my car along the side and get out to pay. Currently, you can't tip on a card, so I'd bring cash for a tip. The tacos are $2.50 (I haven't had any of their other food items). I've been a few times and can't wait to get back! read more

The HOA which I am president of used their taco food truck for a party for all our home owners. I found them extremely easy to work with. They were punctual and very attentive to our crowd.

There's only one place in Raleigh that's so good I'll eat it in the front seat of my car, parked in a gas station parking lot _ Tacos Abarca. It's a food truck that's typically parked in front of the Valero at 6200 Glenwood Ave. in Northwest Raleigh. I would never call myself a taco truck expert, but this is the best of several where I have eaten in Durham or Raleigh. The pastor and asada both stand up to the corn tortillas, cilantro, onions and other toppings to make the flavor of the meat come bursting through. The prices are reasonable _ $2 per taco _ and posted on the side of the truck so you know exactly what you're getting. The service is fast and friendly, and it usually attracts a line of customers at lunch time. Its positioning on Glenwood Avenue has given me a good alternative to other restaurants near my office. And even if I'm heading toward Chipotle or Chili's on the same side of the road, chances are I'll stop at Abarca before I get to the next place! The same owners appear to also operate a second truck emblazoned with "Taqueria Abarca." My photos of the Glenwood location show some of the lunch crowd approaching to place their order! read more

I come here all the time. I always get 3 chicken tacos and sometimes an agua fresca. It's so good every time.

Love love love there chicken tacos with the grilled onion and cilantro and green sauce. Defiantly a win !!!

Amazing spot for $2 tacos!! Authentic tacos on double corn tortilla, seasoned with raw onion, cilantro, and lime. Served with caramelized onions on a paper plate. Do yourself a favor, get 2 carne asada tacos on a hot day and then head over to Fresh for a scoop of local ice cream. read more

This is a food truck on Glenwood Avenue. I came across this randomly while I was stopping for gas. I was actually heading to get something to eat but I needed gas. Killed two birds with one stone. $2 tacos. CASH only. The tacos were really good. I got 3 deluxe tacos asada. Regular tacos come with cilantro and onions. The deluxe tacos are 50 cents more and include cilantro, onions, cream cheese, tomatoes, lettuce and shredded cheese. Full of flavor! read more

On a scale of Taco Bell to "top shelf" tequila, Tacos Abarca is a small batch, delicious Añejo. No salt or lime needed (although the lime is pretty good on the tacos!) I discovered this little gem of a food truck a year or so ago when I stopped for gas and saw the parking lot was overrun with Latinos standing in line to order and pick-up food. Now I'm not always one to stop and grab food at a food truck but I do have a simple rule: never pass up the opportunity to eat at any place that is jam-packed with those of that ethnicity/culture. They know how their culture is supposed to serve food. Having grown up in AZ and on a steady diet of Mexican food I have been pining for some authentic Spanish food. I've suffered through many a NC version of Mexican food. Chile relleno made with a bell pepper?!?!?! Just. Don't... They have many options of meats to choose from and they make their own salsas. A green, tomatillo based one that's more mild and a red one that's got a nice kick to it. I mix them and use the extra on my morning eggs for a nice jolt of energy to start the day. They do tacos, burritos, and a sub like sandwich. All are very good. If you ask they'll also throw on a grilled jalapeño for you. This isn't a sit-down meal or dinner place but it's an amazing lunch! Give it a try! Just don't expect bell peppers. read more

Me and my wife eat here at least once or twice a week it's amazing they have the best tacos and tortas

If you want an cheap imitation of a "mexican" taco, go to Taco Bell. If you want an overpriced ,but still less than impressive one go to Chipotle. If you want a delicious, inexpensive, authentic taco then visit Tacos Abarca!! It's seriously just so freakin' delicious. Topped with cilantro and onions and served on perfectly done double corn tortillas. Grab the green sauce for citrusy heat. I go at least once a week because TACOS ARE LIFE! read more

We've had their tacos multiple times and they're great! I love the steak and pastor tacos. Don't forget the green sauce, spicy and delicious. Try the red sauce if you're a heat lover. I don't know what the previous post is about but I've never had a problem here. read more

Tacos are usually on point! However, the last couple times have been very disappointing! Their burritos are never wrapped well, or at all. Everything falls out which obviously make it hard to enjoy. The steak (carne asada) and green salsa have been way too salty. I was also pretty grossed out the most recent time because one of employees had her hair down while cooking food. This use to be one of my favorite places to get authentic tacos in the area but I have been very disappointed lately! read more

Went there one time and I've been going ever since the chorizo quesadillas are amazing 10/10

Best place to get a taco this side of the border. The Abarca family has always taken care of me whenever I stop in for lunch. Highly recommended. read more

These $3.00 Tacos are not good I got the Carne Asada and they just don't taste good at all.No Wow Factor about them I will never return to eat the most bland tacos that I ever had in my entire life read more

There is nothing better than two wonderful abuelitas, making the tastiest tacos, guaranteed to leave you wanting to take your friends and family for more. Out of the 81 taco restaurants and trucks we have tried in the triangle, Tacos Abarca is the best. I wish we had asked them to cook for our wedding!! read more

Favorite truck to get some authentic tasting tacos. No cheese, sour cream, just meat, cilantro, and onions with lime. Super cheap & delicious. Usually open on weekdays until 9 or 10pm. read more

I had the Jamaica juice while my friends had chorizo tacos and al pastor tacos. All authentic and delicious. Great spot for $2 tacos.

Amazing food, horchata and customer service. Best Mexican food we've had since moving her from Chicago 2 years ago!

Try to find a better taco in Raleigh? And, then try to beat the price? At $2/taco you're not going to find a better meal. And, on top of that, their cantaloupe​ aqua fresca, which all of their drinks are made in-house, is off the chain delicious. This lil food truck (aka horse trailier) parked outside, next to the Valero gas station has been picking up. Last year, they didn't have any signage, and now they do, and people have been learning what I have known all along, great and super affordable​ food. read more

The worst tacos I've tried in the area. The tacos taste like between clorox and nothing. You can't even distinguish between pastor and chorizo ​​tacos. And the worst thing was that all my family and I got intoxicated. read more
