    Don't walk, run! Best breakfast tacos I've had since moving to Houston! Everyone in the restaurant is so kind and friendly. Food is fresh and tortillas are homemade! Prices may vary but my 4 tacos cost $14. Will definitely be going back!

    I was craving a torta and happen to be leaving the dollar tree across the way from Texas Tacos. Their sign on the building is TX tacos tortas & tacos. So I went off of the few yelp reviews and gave this local business a try since I live in Jersey Village. I got there 45 mins before closing and ordered my beef fajita torta to go.. I grew up in SE Houston basically in Pasadena. I might me Asian but I know good Mexican/ Latin foods. One of my neighbors was El Salvadoran and one was from Mexico so I grew up eating foods from at both houses since I was good friends with their daughters/ grand daughters. My friends now good Viet food as well since my mom was always in the kitchen cooking.. (This is why I am a pretty good cook myself). Pros: the beef fajita had flavor, moist not dry. Cons: the bread wasn't toasted much, lacked refried beans, hardly any cream, and NO AVOCADO ... I don't think I will be back for a torta here.

    Taco with Coke. Delicious.

    Fantastic food and sweet employees. We came for breakfast tacos and they were very good. Homemade tortillas were perfect.

    Steak, spicy potatoes, eggs and cheese

    I use to love getting tacos from this place every morning on my way to work. I moved so I wasn't as convenient for me to drive out here. So today I drove the extra miles and minutes only to bite into my taco and find a roach. I am completely disgusted, and really hurt I was mid bite of my taco. An food this it really upset my stomach for the rest of the day. I WILL NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN

We're…read morefrom San Diego, so we know good carne asada and Tacos Frontera is where it's at in Houston! Definitely a taste of home outside of San Diego and Tijuana. Finding authentic TJ flavor in Texas (not Tex-Mex) was a welcome surprise! Our carne asada was grilled al carbón and you could taste the char! Juicy carne full of flavor, thin but strong and tasty tortillas (they really held everything together well), perfect chunky guac (not too fancy or full of fillers--IYKYK), and a variety of delicious salsas and hot sauces! An added bonus was the complimentary chicharrones! I'll take those over tortilla chips any day! The dining room isn't very big, but it's clean and has good a/c....there's an outdoor patio as well. Service was fast and friendly. Tacos and burritos were hefty and full of flavor. Ample parking. So glad that my family from San Diego (who I know get real Mexican taco shop cravings) can get a taste of home right in their Houston backyard!

Limited indoor seating, and since it gets busy we usually order to go. When I did dine in it was nice experience, feels authentic like eating a local spot in Mexico. You have the Mexican cokes available, the style of tacos has a big scoop of guac which makes them a bit unique compared to other spots that charge extra for guac. Their tacos are big too! Not the mini small taco tortillas you get in a food truck. These are big tacos so getting 2 is enough for me. I've tried their Asado tacos and their quesadillas and their quesabirrias all 10/10.

    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.

Husband ordered 2 chicken quesadillas and they were open faced regular sized corn tacos with melted cheese and the meat on top. Also ordered a small liquado of papaya, but it was warmish and I like my liquados cold. Waitress comes up and takes your order and gives you a number.

A grocery section is also attached and has a lot of Mexican groceries. All in all an experience, but not sure I'd go back for awhile.

This part of Shepherd is packed with taco options, with Velvet Taco across the street, Little Taco Shop down the road, Torchy's nearby, and plenty of taco trucks around the neighborhood.

Everything else about the place is pretty solid. The staff has always been friendly, the service is quick, the menu is large, and the prices are reasonable. They also have a drive-through, a decent amount of parking, a small indoor dining area, and a nice outdoor patio. Just keep in mind that the inside is pretty small and the patio can get very hot during a Houston summer. I really want to like this place because the location and setup are great, but the food, especially the tacos, could use some improvement. With so many really good taco places nearby, I'd have a hard time choosing The Taco Stand over most of the other options in the area.
