Castillo a spell on you
Fox E.

When it comes to boxes, and I don't mean P.O. I'm the kinda guy who knows what to D.O. I've had more hits than Usher and NE-YO I leave the other boys way out in the FRIO I used to have a Porsche but now I drive a CLIO Your 3 sisters? Well, I dated the whole TRIO And when it comes to reviews, don't question ME YO If you want a Gordita, go straight to CASTILLO CUAL? I mean Que. If you mess with Barbi, she might cas-Steal-yo man, although she's probably more likely to cas-Steal-yo woman to be honest. But if you want to get tacos and gorditas for a steal, there aren't many places as good as Mi Castillo. The Gorditas here, for me, are the star of the show. They are unreasonably enormous, and incomprehensibly delicious. Gorditas are "low-key" the go-to item at a lot of Houston Taco Trucks, which are often some of the most authentic taco trucks in the country due to the massive Hispanic population here, and the massive need for, well, tacos. As in, the kind you'd find back home. I prefer Matehuala and Presitas a little to the north, and my fave of all is probably 100% Chilango even further north, but when it comes to some of the best and heartiest gorditas in town, although you pay maybe a dollar or two more due to the size, you cannot go wrong with some Castillo action. Service is okay, I prefer it at other places, but food is what you come here for. Good food, great prices, adding yet another entry to a very long list of reasons why Houston probably has the very best (and best selection) of taco trucks in the USA.

We will drive across town for these tacos. Food is alway delicious period This taco trucks never disappoints!!!

Tacos; fajita, suadero, cabeza, pastor, and campechanos
Paul H.

Great tacos all around, I went here to try out the suadero tacos, but of course ended up getting those plus fajita, cabeza (barbacoa), pastor and campechanos. Suadero and campechanos were both firsts for me and great, definitely be back next time I'm in the area! The guy inside was super helpful and even threw in a chicharron taco on the house, go by and give this man your money, you won't be disappointed.

El Taconazo - Barbacoa Especial

El Taconazo

4.5(383 reviews)
0.4 mi•Northside Village
•$

CASH ONLY!! Best…read moreTacos in Houston. Taconazo is the pride and staple of Northside. Always a long line but it so worth it. Barbacoa and pastor is easily the best I've ever had. Horchata is not too shabby either. Doesn't taste grainy. Speedy service. Reasonable price. Keep in mind the "Platos/ Plato Regular, etc." are plates of carne. Ideal for taking home.

Alert: Cash Only…read more I've passed this taco truck countless times and almost always seen a line stretching from the window. 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.

I'm from Katy; this east part of Houston is very new to me. I don't know where to go for food here, but I for sure now know where to go for Trompo Tacos! The trompo here was bomb! I was in the city for a wine fest and needed tacos to tame my hunger from all the wine sipping. Tacos Las Sultana popped up, and the pictures of the trompo looked insane. After going, I can confirm the trompo looked even better than the pictures. Shout out to the chef cutting up fresh trompo I ordered some tacos de trompo to go, with avocado. The order of tacos came with a side of grilled onions and potatoes. I have never had roasted potatoes with my tacos; they were tasty and very buttery. Dude, the way they packaged their tacos... never have I seen tacos from a taco truck packaged so nicely. They wrap everything and even package their salsa. Very clean, very organized This place is over an hour away from me. After eating here I will gladly make the hour drive for this bomb trompo They have a parking lot and street parking available. They have limited seating available inside. They take cash and Venmo payment
