    Barbacoa Torta
    Christian R.

    My wife and I had seen this truck when we were in the area for groceries. We were always passing by and decided to finally make a stop. It seemed to be two trucks combined, a lot of food options, it'll take you some time to look through the menus taped all over the trucks. There is some outdoor seating, but it was too hot during the day for us to have enjoyed our meal so we took our order to go. The young woman who took our order was very nice and kind in taking our order. I'm a big barbacoa fan so it's the first thing I looked for on the menu. I ordered a barbacoa torta with an horchata to drink. My picture might not make the torta look super appetizing, but it was GOOD. It's hard to find good barbacoa in Austin, but this one was what it should be--moist, tender with some of that "good grease." The bread was super soft and it was a good size for me. The horchata was a color we weren't used to seeing, but when we tried it we loved it! Super refreshing! We will definitely be making more stops here in the future to get our fixes. Would recommend checking it out!

    Great Taco Truck!! This place should be considered a local Taco serving Treasure! The tacos and toppings are very fresh here. While it may look a little intimidating because a lot of the menu is in Spanish, just remember Tacos are from Mexico. lol - But honestly, everything on their menu is simply amazing!! And give the Agua Fresca and/or tortas a try as well. Agua Fresca is a juice drink served with ice. Torta is a Big sandwich...mexican style! Anyway, give this place a shot! It's GREAT!

    Not the most aesthetically pleasing photo, but very delicious!

    The best food I had in Texas I can not describe how delicious the food was here! Like going out of your way to eat here level of quality I tried their bean burrito and I'm not sure what sort of magic seasonings they used in it, but easily the best burrito I've ever had. They are also very generous with the sauces and side peppers! If I'm ever back in the area, I would certainly come back again

    The people that took and gave us our order were both very friendly. You basically order a custom burrito they have a list of meats and other ingredients and you just tell them what you want in it! The food was really good. I was not expecting it to be that good because I am super picky with Mexican food living in San Diego along the Tijuana border but I was pleasantly surprised. Even my picky teenager approved. They give you grilled onions and Chile on the side with limes and 3 different kinds of salsa. Delicious. I'm in town for 4 days and we're having this for breakfast again today. My cousin got his burrito with egg, nopales and chicharron. I didn't try it but he clearly enjoyed it and it did look very yummy. I'm from San Diego and we are paying about $12 for a burrito there. Here we paid $13 for two burritos.

    I get tacos from this wonderful taco truck every time I visit Elgin. The Al Pastor is great! I would recommend calling ahead so you can get your order quicker. The prices are reasonable and the service is great! If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, this is the place you want to go to!

If you blink driving through Elgin you will miss this wonderful restaurant. We were definitely getting hangry on our return trip, and Yelp thankfully directed us here. Since it was late at night, they were not busy. They do have daily specials, but we went our ole faithful, enchiladas. We did start with chips and salsa. These chips are solid and allow you to scoop up their slightly spicy and rich salsa. I ordered their Tex-Mex enchiladas. These are 3 large enchiladas. I ordered one of each chicken, beef, and cheese. They arrived stuffed to the gills and covered with awesome queso. The dish comes with a generous portion of beans and Mexican rice. Taqueria Guadalajara is the real deal, and we will definitely be returning on our next road trip. I left just like my enchiladas pleasantly "stuffed to the gills"! As others have mentioned, the building has seen better days, but the food and service are superb! ,

Yes the only place I recommend in Elgin for Mexican food

    I hired them for my daughter's quinceañera and paid the deposit four months in advance…read more Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. They were aware well in advance of the scheduled serving time, but they arrived late and were not ready to serve when needed. This caused a significant delay in our itinerary and affected the flow of an event that had been carefully planned for months. What was especially frustrating was that at the end of the evening, her husband complained that this was not the type of service they normally provide for a quinceañera. Since they knew from the beginning that they were being hired specifically for a quinceañera, I felt those concerns should have been addressed beforehand rather than after the event. On a positive note, we did not receive any complaints about the food, and there was plenty for our guests. I did pay the full amount we agreed upon despite the issues. However, I was disappointed with how everything was handled. During an event as important as a quinceañera, the family is surrounded by guests and focused on making the day special, so there really isn't an appropriate opportunity to stop everything and address problems with a vendor as they are happening. For that reason, I believe vendors hired for special events have an added responsibility to arrive on time, be prepared, and honor what was agreed upon. Families put a great deal of time, money, and trust into these celebrations, and that should be respected. Unfortunately, based on my experience with the late arrival, the delay it caused, and how the situation was handled afterward, I would most likely not hire them again or recommend them for an event where timing and staying on schedule are important.
