Ordered two shrimp tacos and a steak one. The steak one was very bland, no seasoning, but fresh. Also got three carnita tacos and they tasted very good. Lastly, tried the tres leche cake and it was pretty good too. The ambiance is a food truck but it has seating in like a lanai. The service was pretty good. Would go back to try out some different tacos and food. Drunkin Noodle - No crevas. read more

Best Al Pastor tacos around!!! super good! They have some covered seating or take it togo. We will be back and maybe try other tacos but when the Al Pastor is this good it'll be hard read more

Oh my gosh! This place is so tasty. It's hard to find a Mexican place that does sopes, and does them well. Their guac is fresh and very tasty. Good job all. We will always order from you read more

Chips and salsa were very good, as was the guacamole. I ordered 4 carne asada tacos as well. When I got them the meat did not appear to be carne asada. I tasted it and it was bland and had an al pastor consistency. The meat was crumbled up. I am from Chicago and I know carne asada when I get it. I asked a worker and she said it was carne asada. This is not carne asada at all. Customer service was excellent and this is nothing against the staff but the tacos lacked for me. If you want real carne asada I would recommend urban cantina in downtown Tampa. Las papas fritas y la salsa estaban muy buenas, al igual que el guacamole. También pedí 4 tacos de carne asada. Cuando me los trajeron, la carne no parecía carne asada. La probé y estaba sosa y tenía una consistencia de al pastor. La carne estaba desmenuzada. Soy de Chicago y sé reconocer la carne asada. Le pregunté a una trabajadora y me dijo que era carne asada. Esto no es carne asada para nada. El servicio al cliente fue excelente y no tengo nada en contra del personal, pero los tacos no me convencieron. Si quieres carne asada de verdad, te recomendaría Urban Cantina en el centro de Tampa. read more

Amazing off the beaten path Mexican cuisine! You can tell the owners put a lot of care into their food and it is really good quality for the prices! I have a gluten allergy (not celiac I want to be clear just avoid gluten) and I asked them to make a burrito but with no tortilla in a box for me and they did it perfectly! I got the barbacoa with beans lettuce and rice. Definitely recommend if you're in the mood for Mexican but don't wanna break the bank! read more

Incredible authentic food. So good! I can't wait to come back. Soapilla was so good! Yum

Recommend the Menudo, which is very tasty and well prepared. Tacos are authentic and good. Prices are a bit higher than comparable restaurants of similar quality. It's not really a standout, but it will not disappoint. read more

Tried the steak, barbacoa and chicken tacos. All very good. Their red hot sauce is fire and perfect for spice and flavor.

The restaurant might be small but the portions are far from that. I had my Al pastor torta for 2 days. The torta was clearly freshly made and did not take long to prepare. Solid slight crisp on top of the bread and well distributed ingredients. Al pastor was a little fattier than I'm used to, however, it was prepared well. This place is more of a take out place as there is not a lot of seating inside and the parking lot only has room for a few cars. But service was quick and smooth read more

Chicken & Al pastor tacos were okay at best. Steak (carne asada) tacos were amazing. Service was decent. I can vouch for the Torta (THOSE ARE A MUST GET). Can never go wrong with an horchata read more

Avocado was a little brown food was exceptionally good. I appreciate their prices and their portions

Great selection of tacos. It's a small taco truck on the side of the road easy to miss but it's definitely worth the stop. Their menu is small but they offer so many different types of tacos from steak, chicken, ground beef, shredded beef, al pastor, beef tongue, and shrimp. I tried one of each and they were all great. Their house made hot sauce and guacamole sauce were so good. read more

GET THE BARBACOA!!! Alright, you know how they say never judge a book by it's cover? They weren't talking bout a book, it was TAQUERIA LA CANADA DE LEO this place is pretty awesome and I always compare my taco exploits from the taco trucks of East Oakland and I would say this place just knocked my #1 local taco truck go-to (Chicken Taco Loco) of my list at first bite. Ordered bunch of tacos, carne asada, al pasta, tripas and Barbacoa. Everything was good, but hay Barbacoa killed it. They're pretty reasonable too just like the Oaklandish tacos... read more

Truly a hidden gem. Everyone here is very friendly. Everything is cooked with extra love.

1.25 taco Wednesday! Had the picadillo, Asada, and chicken. All were great. I will return. Best street tacos I've had in awhile and three great meat options. Service was slow. read more

Brooooooo! Are you kidding me! New to the area and we saw this gem on the side of the road. It's definitely a must try. It's a legit food truck with shaded seating and a place to wash your hands. Yes it's still outdoors so you will have to deal with other outdoor elements but when you savor your first bite. Oh it makes you forget everything else in that moment. In fact all else in the world is fine when the flavors hit your taste buds. It's time for self care and this place will heal your soul. read more

We had the Al pastor tacos with a side of rice and beans and they were ok. The tacos were a bit dry and very greasy. The beans didn't taste fresh. We also had the elote en baso and it had too much mayo/crema. Again, it was ok. The place was not very clean or welcoming. No screens on the enclosure, dirty tables and the cook touched the sliding door with his gloves then proceeded to turn around and cook with those same gloves on. It wasn't busy so no reason for any of it. read more

Amazing tacos, if you love traditional Mexican tacos and love the spice, this is the place, 'my boyfriend got the chicken and absolutely loved them, I got the marinaded pork (Al pastor) and it was extremely juicy, was quite surprised some people said they were dry. This was my third favorite truck out of ceasers in port Charlotte and as well as another restaurant in fort myers. Only thing is I wish they gave bigger slices of lemons. Other than that 9.7-10! read more

We are visiting from Tucson Az where there are taco trucks everywhere. I was so surprised the food was authentic. I definitely recommend. Only thing they need are employees that spoke better English. read more

This place is my new favorite taco spot in the Brandon area. I've been to it 2-3 time a month for the last few months. I definitely recommend this place over the other toco spot on 60 and kingsway as that place has gotten to mainstream and has lost quality. What separates this spot from others is the size of the tacos for the price, and the tortillas. I recommend the tacos de barbacoa, I can eat a lot of tacos but 3-4 tacos is definitely plenty to fill me up. One last plus about this place is that they also take card, and are not cash only! read more

Great food and extremely well priced ! Lots of options. Great authentic food. They were fast and very nice environment to eat

This place is amazing! I love a hidden gem that is humble and amiuthentic and this is all of that and much more. The corn tortillas are perfectly hand made and sustain all the meat they add to it. We tried 5 Al pastor, 2 asadas, 1 chicken, 1 ground beef and they are all very good but the asada is definitely our favorite. The al pastor is very and has chucks of pineapples. I look forward to trying other items. read more

Let's take it from the start. It is an authentic Mexican taco truck. The seating was limited and the table where we sat was infested with ants. That was pretty rough. But, there were a TON of people there. We waited nearly an hour for our small order to arrive (4 burritos) so that wasn't fantastic either. But... the food was outstanding. It appears you can call in your order to avoid the long wait too!I didn't give it a 5 because of the ants and ridiculously long wait time. Most restaurants I would rate a 1 or 2 if I had this same experience but the food was outstanding. We will be back for sure! read more

Hidden gem in Brandon for tacos and quesadillas. The staff/ owners are very friendly. We love the chicken quesadillas extra crispy and the rice is top notch. The tacos are delicious too. Looking forward to trying a huarache next! It's a taco stand on the side of the road on Parsons ave, so don't pass it up. It's worth stopping for a meal. read more

I absolutely loved this place! It's a local mom and pop place and the food is absolutely delicious. the tortillas are made from scratch and they're hands down some of the best I've had. I told him I was a vegetarian and the owner was super accommodating and made me tacos with veggies inside. They also have a variety of drinks available which were great too. I would definitely give this place a shot if you're looking for some authentic mexican food. They're also extremely fairly priced too which is always a plus! read more

This taqueria was delicious! As a family we tried the carnitas, camarones a la diabla, pollo, y bistec tacos. We purchased two plates that included rice and refried beans. We were impressed with the meats but not 100% with the rice and refried, it was a little bland for my taste. The people were super friendly. I rated a 4 because of the rice and refried beans. I plan on going back to try different items on the menu. read more
