Taquitos - 2 Taco Locos, one Tinga, one Beef - Mexican Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Tasty Taquitos is a quintessential lunch spot. One of the more unique restaurants I've been to-a food truck attached to an outdoor patio, nestled in the best stretch of Penn Ave. It is an absolute perfect spot for lunch on a nice day. I got two tacos: a chicken and chicken tinga soft shell. Both were delicious and reasonably priced. The meat was tender, the tortillas were tasty, and the toppings added in their own way. The food also came out blazing fast and hot! Would definitely recommend to anyone checking out the area who wants a fun, quick lunch. read more

I truly liked your authentic food and your burritos and tacos are awesome, but finding a huge black hair in my food (I have blonde hair!) in the middle of my burrito in my first bite...totally turned off now and it made me throw up. No hair nets? Ugh...:/ read more

Sweet Mexican food truck. I stumbled upon this little gem and I'm glad I did. Good food. Reasonably priced. Great service.

Pittsburgh...I'll be back. Lol! In my best Arnold S. voice. When I say these tacos were fire....they were !!! We were sitting waiting to eat at Cheesecake Factory. They said be an hour. We were starving so we thought let's try this food truck. Taco appetizers!! There was a 20 minute wait. No big deal. Cheesecake Factory text came soon as our tacos were ready. I ate both my Taco Loco chicken tacos. Tacos were $4.95 a piece and worth it. They were filled with meat. Perfect balance of protein and toppings. Chicken was well seasoned. So delicious!! My son friend got 3 lamb tacos. He said they were good. My son dad got think 2 tacos. He said they were really good. Oh their salsa Verde was bomb!! I just got some cheesecake at the other place. Lol. I was full from the tacos. Employees were super super nice. Support this business if you see it. read more

Was in Garfield for their First Friday of the mont festival/stroll. Don't know it's official name but my first time exploring this neighborhood and event. What a nice night to explore art, wares, food. This food truck business was beaming with business. A bit of a wait but not bad and food was so worth it. I just got two soft tacos with shredded pork, cilantro, onion, lime, and salsa Verde. My type of tacos! I ate them sitting on a curb listening to a guy playing guitar and singing. Not too shabby at all! The food, service, and prices were great. read more

Some tasty Mexican food served here. This place operates as a food truck but they are often in the same spot. The food is good, and they have all the classic Mexican American dishes like burritos, tacos, and more. I tried their cheese quesadilla and tres leches cake. Both the items were more than satisfactory. I wanted a really simple but well made quesadilla, and I got it. The flavor wasn't really anything special but it hit the spot. Size is excellent and it is cut up very conveniently. A lot of cheese, but the quality seemed just okay. Decent crisp. But man, the price! It was an awesome deal for under $6. That's usually the price for a kids portion, not a 12" quesadilla! Really appreciate the deal. The tres leches was high quality as well. It was a bit more expensive, but I think it was worth it. Good portion. I would have enjoyed it more if it was soaked in more sweet milk, since it was a tad dry. But overall, still super tasty. All in all, this was a great place to get some tasty Mexican food. They have some awesome deals and the portions are great too. I recommend both the quesadilla and the tres leches. read more

Incredible and authentic Mexican food! At 8 month pregnant this is my go to craving. Service couldn't be nicer, and it's a great place to sit outside for a taco. I typically get a shrimp tostada and a crunchy chicken taco. My husband wasn't super impressed with the ground beef, but I've never had anything I didn't like here. read more

Tl;Dr: delicious authentic tacos and burritos in cute food truck stop! ~~~~~~~ Always drive by this place, finally decided to try it on a random Monday night after craving burritos for days. The set up is super cute with an area to sit out front the truck (uncovered outdoor) and decorated seasonally. Wasn't super busy on a Monday which was nice but had a steady flow as we waited for our food. Ordered the traditional steak burrito and traditional tinga burrito after googling what tinga is (spicy shredded chicken). Also got chips/guac and a boat load of salsa. You have to order salsa individually (25 cents each) which was fine but would have preferred an option for one larger container. Everything is cooked to order and smelled amazing. The burrito is the most perfectly wrapped burrito you will find in Pittsburgh. FLavors were remarkable!!! I've been seeking good authentic Mexican food since moving to PGH from SoCal and this might be the answer! Probably the most authentic food I've had here. So delicious. The steak was perfectly cooked and not chewy. Salsas were so flavorful - I'm glad we ordered so many. The Super Hott was as advertised and actually had a kick to it too which again was a pleasant surprise in Pittsburgh! Street parking on Penn can be tricky but usually can find something nearby and is free after 6p. Pricing was fair. You can also order ahead online if you want. Overall highly recommend!! read more

I pass by this place all the time and the smell just let's itself right into my car window. Like a cartoon smoke hand beckoning you to this food truck It finally got me, I just pulled over on a whim after getting a whiff. It was delightfully delicious and surprisingly affordable! Service was so friendly and quick! The lady that rung us out was like "Oh, you've never tried us before?! You are going to love it!" She was not wrong at all! We loveeeed it, she saw us chowing down in the car as we fumbled tacos to give her the thumbs up of approval! So yummy. I tried the tacos locos which was a hard shell, inside of a soft shell with a layer of cheese in between. So crunch, so cheesy, so tasty! I got one Al, pastor, one chicken and one carnitas. All of them were fantastic. The pastor and the chick will be my go-to orders though. Just extra amazing. The Mexican street corn was not photographed because it was a delicous mess of flavor and love. I was a mess while devouring it. The rice and beans were really good too! (Before my boyfriend spilled it all over my car!) Car dates. lol. Highly recommend also trying the tres leches! Again, not pictured because I was too busy enjoying every morsel of it and forgot! Ordering ahead of time was super easy and convenient especially because it let's you put specific plate numbers so if you are ordering for a a couple people the tacos shouldn't get messed up. Ordering ahead the amount of time for the order to be ready wasn't bad either. One of my new favorites on one of my everyday routes. A little problematic lol. Also it was totally budget friendly! It does not break the bank at all! read more

Super tasty! I'll come back here again for sure. Everything was cooked to order. I had one crispy beef taco and one crispy chicken taco. I really liked the mango habanero salsa. Also tried the pineapple salsa, but I think this didn't go as well with what I had. I moved here recently from SoCal and can give this pretty close to 5 stars. read more

This truck is in my neighborhood so we swing by usually once a week in the summer as a treat. The tacos are authentic~completely. Everything is made on the spot so you know what you're eating is fresh and hasn't been sitting around like it might if you were to go to a chain restaurant. Service is quick and accurate. read more

Tried this food truck at the Southside works. I was slightly disappointed. We ordered burritos, one with Al pastor and one with chorizo. They were sizable burritos and very hot when they came out, but weren't very flavorful. Everything in the burritos kind of tasted the same. We also ordered their chips and guac. The guac was similar to that of the kind you buy at the grocery store and we were hoping for more of an authentic guac. read more

Food and service were amazing. I got the tacos that were a soft corn shell wrapped around a crunchy corn shell with cheese in between. Can't wait to go back! read more

Have noticed Taquitos in the parking area beside Spak many times. Had a chance to stop for a quick lunch. Nice friendly staff with some good tacos and other items on the menu. On the day I stopped, they told me they were out of a couple of the meat options and the chips were not there yet after I ordered those items. Not a big deal because of all the options. Check out the menu. It is a 4 step menu where you pick an item, then select a meat or veggie, then select a topping and then select a salsa. Food came out very quickly. There was a short line for a little bit that move quickly and they seemed to get a lot of walk up traffic from local businesses. I ordered two tacos a Chorizo and a Carnitas. Both were good but was expecting a little more flavor in the Chorizo. A good quick inexpensive lunch. read more

Solid Mexican food at a fair price, ready quickly. The ground beef was preferable to the steak for our crowd, with the chicken being the favorite. Great staple for family dinner. You know when they hand you the bag and it's heavy that you made a good choice. read more

Yum yum yum. I finally stopped by for a quick takeout lunch and I'm so glad I did. My three traditional soft tacos were fresh, filling and delicious. You order at the front window and your food is ready within minutes from the big rear window. Super cute porch area also if you want to eat here! read more

Disclaimer: I just moved back to PA after living on the West Coast. I say that because I'm sure this spot is pretty good for PA Mexican food standards, but if I'm being honest, I was pretty disappointed when I tried this place. It's more expensive and not even close to as good as a lot of my fav Mexican spots on the West Coast. Also, I've never been charged for hot sauce/salsa at a taqueria in my life. I was shocked at how expensive the menu was, but the food is pretty good/okay. The burritos are about 2/3 the size and more expensive than the burritos I'd gotten used to before moving back to PA. I'm usually a burrito person, but for this place, I'd say stick to the high priced ($4 & $5!!) tacos and avoid the burritos. The people who work there are nice enough and the outdoor seating area is comfortable. They can be kind of slow, which doesn't bother me, but that might bother some. All and all, I think this is a good spot to have in the neighborhood. read more

One of my favorite food trucks in pittsburgh! Great outdoor seating and great food. A little overpriced for a taco truck in my opinion, but definitely worth it. They have a good variety of options for vegetarians and vegans. I liked their soybean chorizo burrito and my friend enjoyed their chicken tacos! read more

Their tacos and salsas are so good! We especially love the Chorizo and Al Pastor tacos, and the chipotle salsa.

Let me start by saying that I moved to Pittsburgh from Tucson, AZ about six months ago, and I've been seriously missing Sonoran Mexican food. After trying a few different taco/burrito places in PGH that had been recommended to me, I was starting to believe that good Mexican food just didn't exist here. Then, I found Taquitos. The pictures looked good and authentic, and the menu looked like it had great vegan options that were also authentic. Well, I was right! I got the rajas burrito with cilantro, lime and salsa verde and was so impressed. A huge, thin and stretchy flour tortilla stuffed with incredible refried beans, rice, poblano peppers and potatoes. They guy who helped us was super friendly and said that they'd have even more veggie options in the summer. I can't recommend it enough. If you want real Mexican food in Pittsburgh, here it is. read more

I saw this truck many times when driving on Penn Ave and always wanted to try. However, I found they were closed on a few weekends in this unpredictable 2020 so I wasn't able to try their tacos earlier. Recently, I managed to place an online carry-out order via their website on a less busy workday during the week. Oh my, the tacos are magnificent! We ordered 6 different types of tacos, both soft and hard shells are delicious. Their traditional choice is very authentic, but you can also build your own tacos (including vegetarian options) to meet your needs. Highly recommended! Tip: for online carry-out orders, there is a $20 minimum and the online ordering platform (menufy) charges a moderate amount of fees. read more

One chicken one beef taco. Pretty good. Better than Taco Bell. Walk up, get taco, consume on site read more

Awesome food! I've been here multiple times and have never had a bad experience. The food is always fresh, the staff always friendly and I love the outdoor patio.

10/10 recommend -- some of the best tacos I've found in the city. Their tinga tacos are incredible! The crunchy hard shell + soft shell is a great touch too. They even have a little outdoor space to hang out when it's warm read more

Very good tacos made fresh to order. Carnitas tacos very good. 'Wish they had agua frescas and horchata, however....

I ordered a chicken loaded taco with salsa verde and it was incredible. So fresh, so tasty, authentic, and well worth the $3 I spent on it! I wanted to try more items as their taco salads, burritos, nachos, etc. all looked incredible as well. The only reason I deducted a star is because the wait here was pretty long. We waited around 45-50 minutes in line before ordering. The food only took about 10 minutes after that. read more

Love this place! Better than Condado if you're in the Lawrenceville area. The food is delicious, the vegetarian options are great! Pineapple salsa is to pine for Great for like a weekday lunch or with a movie for a dinner. Pretty much any occasion is a good occasion for the food here. read more

I posted a review a few months ago and at that time I was into soft tacos because that is what u get when eating street tacos in Mexico but I heard that Tasty Taquitos makes their own crisp shells - so good and always fresh made and now my goto taco is crispy. Although Pastor is a favorite, I also like the Rajas ( potato onion and pepper) so good but also I am a fan of lamb. They have cactus and tongue and I tried a hibicus flower. I never met a taco at Taquitos I did not like. Warning for the cautious, the hot salsa is very hot. I could not handle the heat. I still swear Mbuqe the mango habinaro We did take out t of three desserts- wow were they great. Flan, Tres Leche and Chocolate late Cake. Fresh made by a beautiful grandmother who has been a force in Pittsburgh's traditional Mexican food scene going baCk to Taco Loco on the Southside. Please do Not skip the desserts. Perfect for finding true love during Covid. read more

Best tacos in town. Fresh, tasty, good ingredients, variety of fillings and toppings. Not overpriced.

Very good food! I had the steak and tinga chicken. I'd say I enjoyed the tinga one more and it was regular price while the steak had a surcharge. Loved their pico de Gallo! Super fresh, crisp and limey taste! The chips were also super good. The salsa verde is a little more liquidy than I'm used to for a salsa, good flavor but not very spicey. Overall nice hole in the wall! read more
