Great tacos and the ladies that make them are awesome. It's truly a hole in the wall place as it probably one of the first food trucks ever. Seating is all outdoor in various make shift coverings. read more

I thought the food was great. I had a burrito and a torta. The service was great and they offered me a water because it was sunny and very hot out. I saw that they have more hard-to-find items like tripa and lengua. Menudo on the weekends. They also had a wide variety of flavors for their drinks: cantaloupe, mango, etc. This place is authentic. I'll be back to try different things. I'm very happy with Taqueria Ruby and glad to have found it. read more

What can I say, these tacos weren't bad at all. I wasn't a fan of the chicken tacos at all. The Chicken was very bland and dry. The beef fajita tacos were okay also.The carnitas were my favorite, very juicy very flavorful next time. I will get them on corn tortillas instead of flour. I will be back to try more of their menu items. read more

Good tacos and tortas. Been going for years and they've remained consistent with their food

Great tacos and gorditas. I go there often to indulge in some delicious food. It's in a food truck in a run down lot. Great for pick up to enjoy at home. read more

We've been coming to this small local taco place at least once a week. However they forgot our streak burrito even tho we paid for it. That's not very sigma of them and having to drive all the way back here wasting gas again with how high their prices are, thanks to Biden and Kamala. This taco bus ain't as good as the battle bus. GG won't be coming here ever again. read more

Food is delicious been going here for years . But they definitely went up on price . $3/ per taco & 25€ for cheese is kind of insane.

Tasty, cheap and quick! Open 24/7 , little hidden food truck off the side of the road, lady at the window was pleasant, enjoy good food all night / day! read more

Someone told us this was the best taco truck around so of course we had to go and check it out. I believe it was $61 for 13 tacos, horchata, and a coke. Had some chicharron tacos as well as carnitas. The tacos were good, I don't think it was the best I've had because of the meat but they were still good. They have a lot of seating here for a taco stand. They also have some talking parrots which didn't talk to us when we went. The woman did speak English, just order your food and wait for to pick it up. They were out of a few things when we went but not a big deal. I recommend this place it wasn't bad at all, but I wouldn't say it was the best I had, and a little more pricy than the rest of the places I've been. read more

Looks like a hold in the wall but... The tacos are amazingly good. Service is great also.

I've been here a good amount of times and usually i have no complaints however yesterday after i ate my tacos a few hours later i had food poisoning. read more

Listen, this place isn't here to impress you. It's a taco truck next to a chicken coop that's open 24-hours a day, what can possibly be expected? I find it hella charming to see the chickens pecking around while you eat, but in the eyes of food health and safety? Not so sure. I visited around 2PM on a Monday and only waited a couple minutes, so I didn't experience the monumental wait time others are complaining about. The gal that took my order did not seem pleased to be alive, but again, what ought I expect? Took maybe 5 minutes tops for my tacos. I got a chorizo (full menu all day) and two chorizo as well as a cuppa corn. Good, solid, a teeny bit small. The cilantro and onion was perfect to have but could have used more. Salsa is okay and served in little dime bags, which made me laugh. I tried the flour today and they were good! Pillowy and soft. I'll try the corn next and definitely some al pastor. Someone who reviewed this mentioned it's good but I didn't see it on the menu otherwise I would have ordered it. The weather was good and I got to eat outside among the fowl and highway 6 traffic. It's a unique experience, and considering I can come any time, day or night, I could see this becoming a solid staple in my repertoire. read more

This place has the most amazing tacos and service was great and food is very good. Parking is okay but over great service

Went in the middle of the night for a torta. Very satisfied and not too long of a wait. The green sauce is just amazing

After our Thanksgiving outing; we got hungry late that night so we decided on getting tacos. We headed to Taqueria Ruby because they are open 24/7! My daughter has ate here before and said they were good. It is just a taco truck, but hey I'm good with that. There was 3 ladies working and we order some fajita beef tacos, pork and fajita chicken tacos. I was told it was fajita chicken not shredded chicken. When we got hone I found out my chicken tacos were shredded with tomatoes. You know me--no tomatoes!! My husband is such a sweetheart he traded me his beef for my chicken. That true love..giving up beef tacos!! The tacos at first looked small but they were packed with meat. Good tacos. Next time I am going to try some breakfast tacos. Return=yes read more

Best taco truck near me! I'm always greeted with a smile the cooks are awesome. Hate to say this truck was lacking in quality after covid but recently had some delicious pastor and bacon egg & cheese breakfast tacos. Their chilaquiles and horchata were the best I have ever had. I think I'll have to become a regular again lol read more

This place is legit! It's open 24/7 clean friendly service reasonable prices the tacos had good flavor wide variety to choose from fast service and there água frescas are awesome! Definitely worth giving it a try especially if it's late night and you find yourself hungry, and are sick of the usual ff places, like I certainly am! No complaints! Great little place and excellent location too, super convenient! read more

If you ever find yourself in Houston and want authentic Mexican food and a unique dining experience, venture out to Taqueria Ruby. It's perfectly Texan. It's near a major highway near a gas station tucked away in a gravel parking lot. Taquieria Ruby is a large food truck where on one side is a drive thru and the other a small outdoor seating space. In the back are random large metal cages with a variety of exotic and not so exotic birds. The food here is amazing! I recommend the barbacoa tacos and ask for the green cactus sauce (it's SO GOOD!). A Mexican Coca-Cola (with real cane sugar) goes perfectly with it. Taqueria Ruby may be the only reason I'd visit Houston again. read more

I originally visited their location in Prairie View. I had no idea about this location, which happens to be their first location. This location was very nice and it also had a large space near the truck. The food was made very fast but it was extremely hot and fresh. I ordered two lengua tacos and two chicharron tacos. They were absolutely delicious! Both locations are awesome, but I have to visit here more often. read more

All the waters are fresh. I recommend the cantaloupe and the pineapple and the watermelon and the lemonade. All the ones I've tried are so good. The shrimp tacos are bomb. Go here. Get tacos. Ask for their special orange salsa I think it's habanero and have a great time. @SPACECITYSHMACKS follow me on Instagram read more

One of the best hidden gems! They have some of the best tacos in town!!! I highly recommend this taco truck!

The rating is solely on the amount of time you have to wait outside for the tacos. My coworkers RAAVVVEE about this place. I usually do not sway from my regular but decided to give it a try. Left on lunch break and it literally took an hour to wait in line, order, pay and wait.. in the sun.. I think they go pluck the chickens from the coup and that's what takes so long.. I'm not even excited about eating them at this point. Lunch is over.. Update; it's a hour wait for 5-6 tacos regardless of you call in your order or order at the window. They will quote you 20 mins, give them a little wiggle room And they will still tell you an additional 20 mins at the window. read more

Don't expect a building of any sort. I passed it and had to bust a U. I went around noon on a Thursday and was the only customer when I got there. Shortly thereafter, four men came to order. I ordered 3 tacos - barbacoa ("Mexican BBQ, they call it), lengua (tongue), and al pastor (spicy, griddle-fried pork). $6.50, she said, so I guess that includes tax and perhaps they round it (for prices, see the picture of the menu I posted). She asked harina or maiz (flour or corn), and I asked I'll try both. I asked for to-go but changed my mind and ate on the cute tables - they were almost "surprisingly" clean (hey, it's an outdoor trailer park setting, I am allowed a little prejudice). I saw the jug of horchata after I had ordered the tacos. "La horchata... es hecho de polvo o no? (is it made with powder?)" "No, es natural," said the cashier with a pretty smile. "Entonces, una horchata." It's a grain-based drink (not alcoholic) served cold. This one had just the right amount of cinnamon and sugar (not too sweet). It unfortunately only comes in one size - 32 ounces - this would mean I have to exercise will power not to drink it all, but one can expect so much from herself. $2 And out came the tacos. I also appreciate that they serve the tacos with two big lime wedges, two salt packets, packets of green and red sauces, and toothpicks. And use nice, thick napkins. The tacos are small but pack enough heat and nutrition (or spices and fat, but let me enjoy my meal). The al pastor had spent just enough time on the griddle to have the pan-frying-singed texture but was not overcooked throughout. Of the three I tried, it had the most flavor, which I doused with even more sauces and lime juice. The lengua had a beautiful, soft texture, but I was not a fan of the flavor - in fact, it still had a little bit of gaminess to it. The barbacoa, too - great texture, not as much flavor as I would have liked. Yes, I understand that that's what the salt is for. 3 stars for the food/price ratio. Certainly a super sweet staff in the cooking trailer - and a cute, eclectic atmosphere of tropical birds, not without the rooster whom I fed tortilla. He won't eat the corn tortilla and neither will I next time. read more

Taqueria Ruby - Menu - but doesn't include the homemade horchata so ask for that separately :) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

It's 2 am, we are tired, hungry and just want some bomb tacos. Taqueria Ruby is the place to be! If you are hungry in the morning, lunch time or even past midnight... this 24 hour taqueria is always there for my 2 am taco cravings with my Agua grande. This taqueria is not like your typical little truck, no. They actually have a seating area covered or a little boat to sit in. The little boat is nicely insulated and does not feel like a sauna. I was able to enjoy my taco de Lengua, my fajita taco and Agua de Jamaica (Hibiscus). read more

Very good my go to Mexican taquria as it's only 1/2 mile from my home. Service is always good and Univision playing in the background adds to the ambiance and always makes me feel good. All tacos, the quseadillas are very filling and burritos were just right. read more

Quaint/w Chickens(live lol). The food is delicious! Definitely worth the drive! Great experience, anytime!

This place is completely O V E R R A T E D! I'm convinced the people who are hyping this place up in these reviews haven't had tacos outside of the Cypress area. The meat is bland! I'm upset I waited 20 mins for two burritos only to be disappointed. Not to mention they forgot a part of my order! My advice to Yelpers would be to go to the hood for good quality and delicious tacos because this ain't it! read more

The best tacos! Consistent every single time! Get the horchata and the Al pastor if you get anything but seriously everything is delicious!

This is my boyfriend's #1 ranked taco stand. So when I visited, we made sure that we made room after our actual dinner to get a post dinner taco. They have a couple benches for you to sit and stare at people eat while you drool and wait for yours.. but since it was cold we ate in our car. You can tell a place is going to be good by their hot sauces. The green spicy sauce came in little baggies.. You know like the ones people put their cocaine in? Probably because they were trying to say that their stuff would get you hooked like cocaine. It was the right amount of spicy that makes you drink a bottle of water but not enough to burn you taste buds so you can still taste the delicious lengua meat :P read more
