Hit Taco King tonight! It's a taco truck/trailer that's always popping up with great reviews, so we decided to give it a shot. I went with my wife and, in true me fashion, ordered one of each of the tacos (except beef/pork combo). They're the small, street-style corn-tortilla tacos: fajita, pork, chicken and all fresh, all hot, all gone in record time. My wife had the steak fajita quesadilla, and we both cleared our plates embarrassingly fast. I also tried the beans, which were way better than a taco truck has any business making. The salsa verde was excellent -- tasty with a real kick. Friendly staff, fast service, great food and great price. Our whole meal was around $15, which feels like a crime for how good it was. This is definitely getting added to our regular rotation for street-taco nights. read more

1,000/10. The food truck is in a gas station and they ONLY ACCEPT CASH. So make sure you bring cash. Let me tell you the food was amazing. From the corn tortilla to the meat to the green sauce. It was amazing and SO CHEAP. Four people ate for $26 and it was amazing. The lemonade was very good as well. Food was quick as well. They have tables set up outside of the food truck! Nice and clean! read more

Fast, food good, freshly made definitely going back and prices very reasonable. Customer service 10/10, even though it's a find truck the area was very clean nice seating area and spacious. read more

10/10 absolutely delicious! We went on a Friday night and there was a pretty steady line. Cash only. I recommend the Horchata, great Cinnamon kick! Will definitely be back. read more

The Taco King - Chicken and Beef Tacos - Food Stands Near Me - Cypress, Texas

Tacos are bland, corn or flour tortillas should be offered without server making assumptions that everyone eats corn tortillas. Service was okay, but no customer should have to beg for salsa to go with tacos. read more

Best tacos I've had in Houston since I moved here! authentic Mexican food, it's the real deal. I wish they had a restaurant

Good tacos, near home. Fast moving line with cheerful, efficient employees. Quesadillas were preferred over the street tacos. A couple places near top this in my opinion El Patrons (Eldridge) & Cinco de Mayo (Louetta) but Taco King has a following and is worth trying. read more

I had three tacos made with corn tortillas and 3 different types of meat. I don't eat raw onions so they left them off at my request. I also ordered their Charro Beans which had a good flavor. I don't understand why they put hot dogs in the beans because I don't think they add anything to the flavor of the beans. They are very affordable and have good portions for the price. read more

i've been here two times with my boyfriend, ordered the same order and got charged the same price. but when I sent my boyfriend (who doesn't speak Spanish) the third time they overcharged him $10 extra. he didn't add anything new to our order and when asked for a receipt the older lady rudely said no receipt. regardless if you speak Spanish or not check that they aren't ripping you off. read more

5/5 Stars -- Tacos That Truly Hit the Spot! The Taco King in Cypress is hands down one of the best taco trucks I've ever been to! Everything was incredible--from the first bite to the last squeeze of lime. We tried several tacos including their al pastor and carne asada, and every single one was . The tortillas were lightly crisped with just the right amount of oil, the meat was flavorful and juicy, and the toppings were fresh--chopped onions, cilantro, and perfectly grilled onions on one. The lime wedges added the perfect zing. Plus, the creamy green sauce on the side? Game changer. The staff is super friendly and the service is quick. Whether you're dining at the table or taking them to-go, the quality is always on point. If you're in Cypress and craving authentic street tacos, don't sleep on The Taco King. These tacos are amazing --can't wait to go back! Location: Conveniently parked and easy to spot Value: Affordable and worth every dollar Must-Try: Al pastor + green sauce combo read more

The food, the menu, the yumminess! Go here and have a happy belly! Remember, cash only and not there on Sundays or Mondays. My previous review disappeared. Dang. This food truck is at the gas station parking lot Tuesday through Saturday! Cash only! Go get your street size tacos! They're delicious. It's not corn tortillas or flour tortillas but they're sufficient! And get yourself an aguas frescas! My favorite is Horchata but they have Tamarindo and another one as well. They're all good! I love the tacos! They're tasty. I always get fajita but they have other meat choices too. Check out the menu, go hungry! Food that won't break the bank :D read more

Limited menu and cash only but great food. Got quesadillas and tacos with a lemonade.

Make sure to have cash. Overall good tacos. If you're in the area, I recommend, but I wouldn't make a trip there if inconvenient.

Found this place when I was searching for a late night taco spot online. I chose it solely on uploaded photos of the tacos, they looked good. I ordered Al Pastor and Chicken tacos and let me tell you the flavor was so GOOD. I'm from the L.A. area and they taste better than my local tacos, they're cheaper too! Only 1.50 each. They had different taco meats than I'm used to. Typically, at my local taco spots you'll see carne asada, carnitas, lengua, tripas etc. But they had none of that. Instead, their meats were Beef fajita, Al pastor, chicken and meats I've never heard of: Trompo and Campechanos. I'll have to try those the next time I visit. I tried both the green and red salsa, surprisingly both were milder in spice than the salsa I usually eat. But still had just enough heat for me. I would definitely go back the next time I'm in town. read more

This is our go to place for tacos. They are amazing. Their beans are also really good. Highly recommend.

I purchased some lower carb corn tortillas and really wanted to enjoy them right. I've seen this truck out for years and didn't want to venture too far out so I decided to buy some tacos from this stand and swap out the tortillas. Unfortunately my fav is barbacoa which they do not serve. REAL TEARS!!! I settled on the combined meat pork & beef specialty and beef solo. Bit of a language barrier but we worked through it and the meat on my tacos blessed my tongue with the low carb tacos. So good! Just wish I had sauce to roll my tortillas around in first. Think the tacos and onions/cilantro were a buck a piece.....definitely worth ordering 5/6! read more

Was craving some tacos one night and I remembered I had saved this taco joint due to the amount of 5 star reviews. I was very excited to try, especially knowing there's usually a line to wait on , cash only, and a lot of hype...it's got to be good right? Crickets. I was so disappointed. Not sure why/how everyone is raving about these tacos, sure it's only $1 but sometimes cheap does not warrant a 5* review. We ordered pastor and fajita...tiny tacos and lack flavor and juiciness that I've previously experienced at other similar taco joints. The line was moving fast, no complaints about the line, no complaints about the workers- they were very friendly. Only reason why I'm giving it a 3* Just disappointed that it did not live up to expected hype. read more

Looking for tacos for dinner, and stumbled upon this gem on yelp! Now, I'm from the south side of Houston and that is all I know from tacos which are super bomb! So I read reviews and decided to pull up! Truck had 4 people in line, and I notice they are street tacos. They are $1.50 each, options are chicken, beef, pastor, a mixture of beef and pork which is called chem-something (forgive me) but I heard they are the best ones. I don't eat pork anymore so I wouldn't know! Ordered a quesadilla, beef which was so good. It had cheese, grill onions, regular onions, cilantro and a lot of beef meat. Cut in two portions! I also ordered 6 tacos for someone else and they were pretty stacked! Same ingredients except the cheese was extra .50 each taco. I will be coming back here because service was great and tacos was good. read more

Great tacos. The other truck on Spring Cypress and Eldridge has tortas that should not be missed.

So a taco de pastor, a campechana taco, a fajita taco, and a chicken taco from Taco King walk into a bar. Bartender asks "Ok... is this a joke?" The chicken taco says "Mira bro, we've been posted up at a Shell station parking lot at Taco King. We thought the small parking area and the fact its cash only would deter people but pinche Enrique got us working man!" "Can y'all keep it down please?" a patron asked. "I thought a dollar a taco was humiliating vato" chimed the fajita taco "but its a perfecto price for the gente. We get all dressed up in cilantro & onion, some amazing sauces- the green one is hot mano!" "I'm trying to enjoy my drink here..." grumbled the guy. "Mr. Ever, relax... they're just excited." the bartender told him. "Oyes, don't forget the grilled onion and nopalitos he throws down with a plate amigo. Its loaded with sabor! Just like in CDMX!" The campechana taco continued "The drinks are great but a little inconsistent... but that horchata is always on point." "That's it, you tacos are ruining everything!" "Hey Nowan, let the tacos speak man! They're just trying to let some steam off." Just then the taco de pastor comes back from the RR and says "What's your problem esse? You seem to have a problem chico, like YOU got an issue." The patron got up, slammed his ale, whispered angrily to the bartender, and stormed out of the bar giving them the dirtiest of looks, took out a gun, and shot himself. The quartet was bewildered. Stunned, the taco de pastor asked what he told him before he pulled the trigger. As he cradled the man, the bartender, after sobbing for a bit, wiped his tears and said: "Nowan Ever said 'I hate tacos from Taco King.'" The taco de pastor said "Well duh..." read more

This place is so good! There's always a line waiting for them to open! They're also CASH ONLY, so prepare for that before coming. I went a few months ago and tacos were 1.50 each, hopefully inflation hasn't affected them too much, but I would gladly pay the difference if necessary because they make a good taco and that is hard to find these days I got 3 beef and 2 chicken street tacos w/ onions and cilantro. The meats were tender and their salsas add even more flavor. read more
