    a man ordering food from a food truck
    Anthony M.

    I'm from out of town and I told my friend to take me to a good taco spot for breakfast. We ordered Bacon, egg, cheese/chorizo, egg, cheese/ and On the fly tacos all on a corn tortilla and a side order of rice. All were very good but my favorite was On the fly( cheese, bacon, beans, and avocado) The green salsa is so good. They have a large menu I wish I could have order more food. Trippy taco is a good truck located outside a convenience store. They have a few tables outside you can sit and eat. The cooks did a great job making the tacos great service. I suggest you call your order in as it gets pretty busy. I'll definitely be back to try other items on the menu!

    I love this place! Breakfast tacos in Austin have gotten so expensive- everywhere I go now I feel like they are $4.25-$5 to get a breakfast taco. All breakfast tacos at Trippy Taco are under $4, most around $3-3.25 and are great. My personal favorite is the On The Fly. I come grab breakfast tacos from here at least once a week. Super easy, fast, cheap, good quality, great free side sauces. Highly recommend!

    Oh definitely definitely skip the long line across the street and come here for the chilaquiles taco. I used to think that I needed my breakfast tacos to have eggs, but Trippy has me tripping so hard for their chilaquiles taco. The flavor is great but the thing that I fell in love with was the texture--the incredible crunch that the tortilla strips retain despite being simmered. Absolutely wonderful. One star docked because the egg-based breakfast tacos were just a slight letdown. The eggs are cooked on the harder side so that means that the ingredients just sit next to one another rather than melding together more cohesively. And the steak was on the chewy side.

    Menu

    A bit disappointed with the breakfast taco. Ordered bacon, egg, and cheese. Eggs were overcooked to my liking. Cheese was very sparse, would have been the same with out cheese. Amount of bacon was so-so. In all, it was average stop. See photo. Cheers.

    Don't judge a book by its cover. This place actually gives Veracruz a run for its money. Different style of taco but fantastic flavors (I've liked the migas, pastor, potato egg chorizo, bacon egg cheese, beef fajita). Great flour tortillas and that chipotle mayo salsa is fantasti

    If you're in the neighborhood, skip the popular spot across the street and get yourself some legit tacos from the sweet old lady in the food truck. It's nothing glamorous, as you're on the edge of a gas station parking lot. But when you're sinking your teeth into tacos like these, the surroundings kind of melt away into the background anyhow. Highly recommend their Trippy Taco and Crispy Avocado Taco, and don't skip the sauces.

Once you're inside, though, the whole operation runs with impressive efficiency. You order at the register, take your receipt, and hand it off to one of the taco guys behind the counter. As the sign says, "No Ticket, No Taco!" so don't lose it. Seating is limited and the line can get long, but they move fast. And don't come expecting cheese or sour cream -- the only add‑ons here are cilantro, onions, salsa, and guacamole. It's a stripped‑down menu, and they stick to it. The tacos are solid. The beef isn't anything remarkable, but the chicken is tender, moist, and genuinely flavorful. The quesadilla is the sleeper hit; the baked cheese gives it a deep, savory punch that outshines the tacos. And if you're hungry or just want the best value, the burritos are enormous -- stuffed right up to the tortilla's structural limit.

These flavors make it all the way into every bite, carried by a guacamole sauce that'll coat your tongue. Everyone I saw there left their plates empty. If you go - and you'll feel more alive if you do - make sure to accept the works. The onions and cilantro greatly balance each bite, while the salsa and guacamole are necessary and fundamental to tying the flavors together.. Despite their popularity, service remains lightning fast. The reluctantly bilingual cooks practically seize your order ticket to guide you through the process. This is my second taco journey to Austin and I haven't found better.

If you're in the city, this place is definitely worth checking out!

Sixth Street's neon and noise are basically next door, the Capitol sits up the hill, and the whole area is packed with people, bars, and that classic Austin mix of polished downtown hustle and late-night chaos. Velvet Taco is pure counter-service: you walk right up, order at the register, and then grab a seat. There's plenty of seating, so even with a couple of kids in tow it was no problem finding a spot. The place leans hard into what can only be called white-people tacos--soft, sad flour tortillas that taste like they came straight out of a grocery-store package, loaded with every wild creation the kitchen can invent. Global mashups, brunch hybrids, burger impostors, the works. No one is pretending these are the real deal. I went for the chicken-and-waffles taco, which was actually built on a thin, real waffle instead of a tortilla. Surprisingly good--crispy, a little sweet, chicken holding its own. The burger taco tasted exactly like a cheeseburger that had wandered into a tortilla and decided to stay. We also tried the shrimp taco (fine), one daughter got the kids' chicken taco (perfectly kid-level), and the other ordered the chicken tikka (spicy, saucy, and very much in the "why is this on a tortilla?" category). Everything was okay. Comparable to Torchy's in that same creative-American-taco lane. If you're looking for a true Mexican taco, stay far away. But if you just want to play around with some decent flavors on a cheap flour store-bought tortilla while sitting in the middle of downtown Austin, this is your spot. Not my favorite. Glad I tried it. Won't be back.

These are honestly some of the best tacos I've had in Austin!

The fill ratio was correct: I was able to hold it closed without really squeezing, and better, nothing was soggy to weaken the very lightly warmed tortilla. But I wanted a higher salt level in the eggs and steak, and some crisp on both proteins would've improved texture balance. It's pretty solid. I think my mom would give it a 5. But for me, it's a solid 4.

I had only stopped by this Food Truck (area) to try Desnudo Coffee, and spotted this business. I had heard some good things about Veracruz, but I was planning lunch elsewhere. Well, that other spot was CLOSED ON WEDNESDAYS! Seeing my situation, I saw it as opportunity to try the options at Veracruz --- including the famous from Food Network, migas taco. I ordered 4 tacos: the migas, migas poblano, shrimp macha (!!), and the Dona Reyna tacos. All of these specific tacos were priced between $6 and $6.75 per taco, not bad in Austin, and not bad considering the quality of said tacos. As you can see from my order, I opted on the more "novel" choices and they did not disappoint; that said, I do HIGHLY recommend the two variations of the migas taco and the shrimp macha taco. Oh, the shrimp macha was so FIRE, the flavors were bold and smoky with a kiss of heat. The migas tacos were FULLY LOADED, and the scramble with the tortilla chips were flavorul. TIP: They will ask corn or flour --- do flour. Everything is handmade, but those corn tortillas fall apart with all the sauce. Flour = durable and flavorful. I had plans, but the Universe had other plans for me that were superior. Try Veracruz All Natural --- and if your limited on $$$, you can snag 3 EXCEPTIONAL LOADED TACOS for about $20, that you will not find anywhere else!

I walked into this unassuming restaurant and perused the menu, which felt like Mexican tarot cards. Pictures. Titles. Small description. It all looked basic. But simple food made with fresh ingredients and seasoned well has won Michelin stars. Unfortunately, I don't foresee them receiving one. The al pastor taco was tasty. The steak taco had too much fat in it. If I was strictly bashing this review on the food. I'd give it a three. It's not worth the price. Now, the service seemed to be decent until I didn't put a tip on my takeout order. Things seemed to go south. When my name was called, I grabbed the small paper bag and paused. No guacamole. If I hadn't have looked, I could've walked a really long wasteful before noticing. Maybe long enough to not go back. The last behind the counter, said okay I'll get it. It felt like a chore. I said thank you and made the long walk fighting the heat of the dragon's breath once again. The story does not stop there, I thought 3 tacos, a drink, and guacamole couldn't honestly cost $43. The guilt of spending that kind of money on such little food that was also just average, screamed in my conscience. Well, that was because the woman also had not given me my tres leches, which was going to be for my wife. I took the long walk back, stood at the counter for what felt like 10 minutes,and again it felt like a chore to get me what I paid for. No sorry. I would suggest taking a little longer walk to Taqueria de Diez
