The carne asada fries tasted amazing! And you can get any of their burritos in a bowl, which I was very thankful for! The drink options are limited. I enjoyed everything here. Also the bands that played tonight were most enjoyable. The people who worked here were nice and did a great job.

Y'all do NOT SLEEP ON THIS PLACE!!! AMAZING!!!!!Mark, the chef/owner puts his love into the food. The carnitas are where you can tell. I have made them from scratch and he does a 6 HOUR BRAISE!! You CAN taste the herbs and flavors in it!! He's not trying to fit in one type of cuisine. Mark is inspired and while most restaurants hide their proteins with sauces, not him. El Cucuy uses sauces as they SHOULD to elevate the food. RUN DON'T WALK HERE!! Save me a spot though and some elote because my wife will get mad if I don't bring her some!!!

If you are in Denton and are craving tacos, this is your place! Amazing tacos! The service is super nice and friendly. They also have live music to listen to while enjoying your meal. A most definitely cool unique place to check out if you are around Denton.

Cute, kitschy place, but overpriced and overcooked. We had the quesaburria and el cucuy burrito. The quesaburria was dry and overcooked. The cuchuy burrito for the size and cost is an insult. It was dry, small, and not worth the price. For the cost and size of the burritos, they should come with a side or chips or something. For thr taste and quality, it's what you could get at a fast food, americanized mexican restaurant. The burrito needed some salsa on the side to dip, not an additional cost. The limes that came with the tacos were miniscule and comical in nature because they didn't even offer a drop of flavor. Not worth the cost.

The food is fantastic and don't get me started on the agua frescas. This place could be on diners, drive ins, and dives. The staff is super cool and they do it right. Treat yourself to some street tacos today

My favorite thing is the "pesadilla" (taquitos) I would always get them at the food truck and then they moved the item to the storefront only...when I tried them in store they didn't taste the same :( From the food truck we recently ordered a chicken and cheese *only* quesadilla with chips and queso. (we asked if this would be okay and they said yes) it came full of peppers. Another favorite the queso-it was chunky and were given a tiny handful of chips. Hopefully just an off night cause I've always enjoyed it before.

Awesome California-style burritos with some great, unusual ingredients. I love the Chupacabra, a lamb burrito with a sweet blackberry jam. The queso is delicious, though can be inconsistent -- I've had it with varying levels of spice and consistency. Lately the trucks have had issues with supply -- i.e. not having tortilla chips and other things.I've gotten to know the owner a little and he's a swell guy. The recipes are all his, and when they're available and executed well (which they usually are) this is a great burrito truck. Between the two trucks and the restaurant, El Cucuy is a true local Denton staple.4 stars, 4.5 if things were a little more consistent.
