My name is Mars and I loveeeee this place with my whole heart some of the BEST BEST authentic street food you'll ever have I love these guys !!! read more

Could this be THE BEST street-taco stand in Memphis??? Some days I think so! I really do love the tacos at the Taqueria Express -but please be warned: * It's a popular food truck, expect a line & whatever the weather is like today. * The neighborhood ... is ... well ... we should be safe everywhere, right? * They only take cash. * Speak little English, but they understand. * Menu has recently greatly expanded (Malitas, Sopes, Nachos, Flautas, Gordiias, etc) but I still always get an assortment of cheap & tasty tacos (Carnitas, Pastor, & Chorizo are my favs). I am happy just ordering a bunch of their street tacos! * Their tiny cups of salsa are FIRE! * My girl says they have the BEST HORCHATA in the city! (I'm not a fan of horchata, so I take her word for it.) What I don't like: -Standing in the HOT Memphis weather waiting on my tacos. This year they added a canopy & water sprayers -helpful! -Inconsistency! Most days I am putting the most flavorful tacos in my mouth & I feel my body dancing inside! Some days the taco meat will be dry. Oh well, that's what the salsa verde if for! BTW: If you would rather dine in, try their brick-and-mortar store on S Perkins read more

Let me start off by saying I've been searching low and high for this taco and soup right here.

Everything about this taco Truck is okay, not the best or offer the best service. The food taste good but the service was horrible. When we order our food, it took them 20 minutes to get it ready, it was a slow day, the gentlemen who serve us did not speak much English, and he also "forgot" to put our order in when I pick up at the counter. The location where they located is not safe at all, got harassed by panhandler. I got a feeling someone can sneak up behind up and rob you. Just not safe. And if you're American or don't go there much, they don't give you any good sauce. Period. read more

Taqueria Express - Tripa and beef tacos - Food Trucks Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Best Burria pizza in the city. Fresh hot and made to order. Delicious! Must try , you won't be disappointed. Oh that green sauce too!

Hubby and I checked this place out on the recommendation of one of his customers. I would eat here again but it's not my favorite place for tacos. The tacos were good and cheap ($.99!!) though small. They also offer a nice variety of things to eat. They weren't the friendliest bunch but they weren't rude to me either. I love that the truck listed meat in both English and Spanish though I list mine in Spanish because that's what I'm used to calling them. They also have a sign saying you can purchase beer inside the Superman store, though I'm not sure if they get any of the profits or if they have just been asked that so many times they put up a sign. Hubby got a crap ton of tacos and I got to try some but not all. He said not to both with the barbecue one (since he ate it before I got a chance to snag a bite) and since I typically don't like that either I think I'll stick with his recommendation. They have something called mulitas which my husband says are like papusas. I didn't get the chance to ask what the differences were and just got one al pastor to try it. Ohhh myyy nomalicious goodness. I loved it. Loved: - Mulita del Pastor (my fav) - Taco de Carnitas (hubby fav) - Taco del Pastor (hubby fav) - Taco de Pollo Nah: - Taco de Barbacoa read more

Good tacos. Good price. You will have a wait a bit for your food. One of my favorite taco spots

This is one of the most talked about taco trucks in Memphis. I had been getting tacos from here for 10 years but sort of stopped 3 years ago in search of other taco trucks in Memphis. In that time away from the truck they had upgraded to a new look, a different parking situation, added new items, started accepting credit cards, etc. When I used to frequent them, tacos de carne asada were $1 each, now they are $2. I ordered a couple of those tacos and one of their newer items: tacos de birria with a cup of soup. I ordered 3 of the birria tacos and the person asked if I wanted them crispy and I said yes. They all came with the same vegetables: preserved carrots, lime, onion, cucumbers, etc. I'm pretty sure they used to have chopped white onion but this time they came with chopped red onion. The lime was dry and some of the carne asada was inedible (fat, tendon, etc.). For some reason I assumed birria tacos had melted white cheese in them but these didn't. The birria tacos are on double full sized tortillas whereas the tacos de carne asada are on double stacked street taco sized tortillas. I did get quite full. The soup definitely seemed like it was made in house (or in truck) from scratch. I wished the birria tacos were fried in some spice but they were decent tacos. The meat was super tender and not like it had been blitzed up in a processor. All around decent tacos but I feel like there's room for improvement. I'd still come back here though. read more

tl;dr - Tasty .99 cent tacos, delicious green sauce, fast service, cash only. I wanted to try something new for lunch today, so when I saw the Taqueria Express #5 food truck as I was cruising down Summer Ave. I knew it was meant to be. I eyeballed the menu for a few minutes before deciding my maiden voyage would be with some of their tacos. I order three carne asada tacos and a pineapple drink. Five minutes and $6 later I was munching on some delicious tacos. After ordering my food I discovered they don't take credit cards, but they went ahead and started preparing my food while I walked in to the gas station and withdrew a few bucks from the ATM. While the meat was pretty standard stuff, the fresh ingredients and their salsa verde green sauce were very tasty. I wish I had know to order their hot sauce as well, but I'll be sure to fix that next time I stop by. Did I mention their green sauce? It is absolutely fantastic, I covered all three of my tacos with it and it paired very nicely with all of the other ingredients. Next time I stop by I'm going to be a bit more adventurous and try some of their other meat options for their tacos and grab a couple mulitas, which I hear are great. My only gripe is that I asked for my tacos without tomatoes and they still had some. I'm not sure if they were part of a salsa or they just forgot to not add them, either way they were still very good. read more

Taqueria Express - .99 cent carne asada tacos. - Food Trucks Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I came here for the birria tacos as the other taco truck down the road was packed and boy did I regret it. They said it would be a 20 minute wait for my order to be ready and I waited almost an hour. They gave me a hard burnt sope as small as the palm of my hand.The sope was so hard I could not even take a bite out of it when I tried to. Ordered the birria tacos and they were good but they would have been better with cilantro. They only put onion with tiny specks of cilantro on my plate. Paid to get extra meat on a torta and got less than half a handful of meat. Asked for a quesadilla and did not get it. Ordered some tacos al pastor with everything as well and they also had only onion with specks of cilantro. The only thing I really like and would come back for is the tacos al pastor as they did taste really good. I am not giving them 1 Star just because the al pastor tacos were really good and the consommé for the birria tacos was really good too. Everything else was a miss though. There were literally only 4 orders in front of us and they were small orders and they also had to wait almost the same amount as us. When people started saying something about it they ignored them and closed all of their windows so nobody would go up to them and even left a line of people waiting to place their order. I would understand if they messed up because they were short staffed but they literally had 4 men and the cashier in that food truck and not many customer so there really was no reason. read more

Yum yum yum. Authentic food. May have to wait 10-15 min for the food but it's worth it. Best taco truck in Memphis (so far).

The food is fantastic and at a fair price! I've had their tacos asada (steak), and pollo (chicken), flautas de pollo, Pollo de Crema, Steak and Chicken Ranchero, & Tortas - some of the best I've ever had! Only issue I've ever had is with their toppings. My husband doesn't want onions and I have a slight allergy to cilantro so we always ask that our orders be prepared without onion for him and violation for me but 9 times out of 10, they have to remake it. That part feels like forever because it already takes 20 minutes for an order, & then another 20 for the remake. That's my only issue though... authentic Mexican cuisine of you don't mind the wait. You won't be disappointed. read more

This is my most recent go to spot for tacos, until I can find something better. Because everyone is always hyping up their own local taco truck. This one is solid . Good price, delicious food, and amazing green sauce . read more

While driving on Summer my boyfriend noticed this food truck and wanted to try it out, which I'm glad we did. We both ordered tacos which are just .99 each. I had one barbacoa, pastor, lengua, and tripa taco. All four where good, but the tripa taco was my favorite. My least favorite was the barbacoa, it was lacking in flavor. Overall, I will be coming back to try more things from the menu. Plus the canned drinks are free, I think it's a promotional thing since they're just starting out. read more

Ok, now these are the kind of tacos I'm talking about. .99 cent just like in Cali. Why pay $2.19 down the road for a tablespoon of meat when you can pay .99 cent for two tablespoons and be able to order morethan just a few since prices are so reasonable. You leave this truck a happy eater. The prices on everything is reasonable. There's always a line buy that should say it all, they're worth it. The horchata is very good too. Looking forward to trying more than just the tacos and will return. read more

Not great, but fun. The flashing neon and gas station parking lot are downsides. The burrito was big, but average at best. Underwhelmed read more

You can't beat 99 cents tacos! Thanks to Daniel, I learned about this place during Memphis Taco Tour. I order a steak and chicken taco and they were good, not the best of the tour but good. The place was pretty busy but they were quick getting out the orders. Also be sure to bring cash as it is a cash only food truck. read more

Great tacos and quesadillas. I'm impressed by how flavorful everything is. Clean and well lit truck. Very reasonable prices.

Not the best tacos but not the worst. I liked that they were fast with serving the food but I didn't like the lack of seating area. The truck is pretty cool looking. Love me some tacos but these tacos didn't fill me up. I got 6 and they still didn't fill me up. I don't recommend the barbecue taco because there was too much fat in it. I do recommend the al pastor taco though. read more

I googled this truck and it had great reviews. I was excited because I wanted to try Birria Tacos. First bite was VERY SPICY without the dipping sauce. The meat had NO seasoning, and had no flavor. I paid 25 cents a taco for cheese and you had to dig through the meat to find it. 2 of them didn't have any cheese. One person had to add their own seasoning to the sauce and the taco. VERY disappointed. I won't try this again. The search will continue to find a good Birria Taco. read more

Stopped by on a Sunday around 12:30pm. The owner was very nice in explaining some of the items, while we waited for our food. We ordered the chicken tacos and a chicken Mulita. Both items were made fresh and tasted very good. We will come back, several times, I'm sure. I do think I will order with little to no onions next time, though. It will lose some of the great flavor, but save my breath. read more

I tried two tacos and a torta. I didn't get sick as someone else mentioned but I didn't love this food. Memphis has some fabulous taquerias and I just wasn't sold here. It didn't seem overly clean. It didn't seem overly fresh. I'm giving it three stars because it was average Memphis tacos. Extra points for being convenient to my home, in a truck, and cheap. If I try it again I would ask about putting some hot sauce on the tacos as the beef tacos were a bit bland. read more

After a year and a half of relocating to Memphis from New Mexico I have finally found a REAL TACO! Thank god! This place is awesome and is just as good as any taqueria in Mexico or along the border. I had 4 carne asada tacos which was just enough for me. Ask for the HOT salsa, its delish! They are small, served on 3" tortillas with fresh lime, grilled serranos, and pickled carrot and radish. You can't get any better than this. Until now it was La Guadalupana that came as close as I could get to the real deal......I do like La Guadalupana but this place is in fact THE REAL DEAL. I no longer have to settle for white washed mexican food. read more

I tried this place a few weeks ago. I always see people standing in line. I bought several tacos (beef). They had very little meat, and no real flavor. I was very disappointed. read more

My husband and I had been wanting to try food from a taco truck for a long time .... so we decided to do it 3 weeks ago, First, the attendant was very rude and cold to us. We asked what the "torta" had and he kept pointing, annoyed, to the menu written on the truck saying the menu was there ... (instead of recommending something). So I finally decided to get the "pastor torta". My husband got 2 Carnitas tacos and 2 chicken tacos... total was almost $10.00 we were surprised how light the take out bag was but anyways.... we got to the car and started eating ... everything had a good flavor but is too little for too much I guess, the torta was fine but too much grease or butter on the bun. The attendant was very rude. read more

Fucking lame. They charge extra for cheese, lettuce, and sour cream. 3 "99 cent" tacos cost 4.37. There is no food good enough to n make up for deceptive pricing. First and last visit. read more

This place is a CLASSIC! Worth waiting in line- all of the tacos are delicious, but pastor are my favorite. They have horchata and aguas frescas too! Get it! Also the SALSA! Get extra- green and red.. They are so different but I can't decide which is better. read more

Great tacos, although small they are priced right at $.99 The sauces they give you are on the hot side so be careful. Great pork every time we stop! The veggies and peppers are a nice bonus, and tasty as well. read more

Excellent traditional Mexican tacos!!! And they are so cheap!!!! Note, these aren't "Tex-Mex" style...they are authentic Mexican style. The barbacoa taco is A+! Also loved the chicken taco. The market next to the taco truck also has true Mexican Coca-Cola in glass bottles! If you don't know about this then you MUST get one!!! read more

This place has real Mexican food. With .99 cent tacos, there's always a line, but it's worth the wait! My favorites are the asada and the chorizo, but the chicken and pork are also good. My daughter gets the carne asada plate which comes with steak, toppings (lettuce, tomato, avocado slice, onion), corn tortillas, and rice and beans, all for only 7$. It's one of our favorite places. read more
