The Tastiest Food Trucks in Aurora

Liang's Thai Food

★★★★★ 4.6 (442) • $

"Liang's is an awesome food truck! Nice customer service, and delicious food at very resonable price. Panang curry was one of the best I have ever had and they give you a generous portion. I will definitely come back to try another menu! FYI 2 orders only per customer.. it is that popular!!"

Seasoned Swine BBQ

★★★★★ 4.7 (250) • $$

"On a lovely fall day, we wanted some bbq and decided to check out this wonderful find on W. Colfax in Golden. They have a nice patio, though it was a bit windy so we enjoyed our food inside. It's very casual, but comfortable.We ordered the Meathead to share, along with four ribs (you can order individually). We chose the beans and potato salad as our sides. All of it was very very tasty. The meat in the sandwich (prime brisket and pulled pork) was fantastic. The sauces were up to the task as well -- very tasty. We actually ordered the ribs as an afterthought after talking briefly with another customer about their ribs -- and we didn't have to order a whole rack. I'm so glad we did because they were equally as good. The staff was very helpful in all our decision-making.Look forward to a revisit soon!"

Brad's Pit BBQ

★★★★☆ 4.4 (187) • $$

"Really great bbq! The sauces are some of my favorites. The service was quick and friendly. It's convenient that it's located next to a brewery so you could get some drinks and food easily. We will definitely come back and try their other options. The brisket was what I had and really enjoyed."

Konjo Ethiopian Food

★★★★★ 4.6 (156) • $$

"Konjo is a Black-owned business whose staff and food have been consistently awesome over the many visits I've made here in the past year or so. I've tried several Ethiopian places in the Denver area at this point, and Konjo is my absolute favorite. I've never been disappointed. Even though you don't even technically need to interact with anybody since you order the food via a machine at the counter (they text you once the food is ready), I've always found the service to be friendly and kind when we do interact. The Gomen (spinach w/potatoes) is the most delicious I've ever had, garlicky and perfectly cooked. I almost always get this, the red lentils, and the cabbage. It's all so flavorful and cooked just right. They have gluten free and non-gf options for injera. The stall is located at Edgewater Public Market, so depending on the time of day and week, it can get crowded even despite the ample seating areas. I recommend getting New Zealand-style ice cream at Happy Cones for dessert afterwards. It's a great way to finish off a wonderful meal from Konjo's."

Vegan Van

★★★★★ 4.5 (163) • $$

"Love this place and these people. We're very lucky to have a vegan spot like this in Denver. Others have come and gone but they keep it going despite all the things thrown at them"

Uptown & Humboldt

★★★★★ 4.7 (96)

"Uptown & Humboldt is a special place. I've seen every iteration of them over the years. From food trucking and meal prepping to hotel brunching and food stalling, these cats have been ALL OVER the Greater Denver metro area sharing their culinary creativity with the masses.You'll be hard-pressed to find anyone kinder and more passionate about the community more than Gio and his business partner, Hayden. The ethos of Uptown & Humboldt stems from their travels around the world and their culinary adventures. The end result is nothing short of damn delicious food.The current menu revolves around their gyros and burgers. You can't go wrong with anything you try. The FMB and Berlin burgers are absolutely delicious. On my most recent visit I went with my favorite order: the Lamb Gyro and Yuca Fries. This combination is magnificent. The lamb tender and the gyro filling. The yuca fries somehow steal the show every time, with the garlic cilantro aioli in th running for most addictive side sauce in Denver.PRO TIP: wash it down with a Pineapple Basil Agua Fresca. It puts all other agua frescas to shame. Splurge on the drink, IT'S BEYOND WORTH IT.If you're at their food stall at Zeppelin Station, you'll be kicking yourself if you don't try anything from their newer tapas menu. The two standouts are the Truffle Manchego Croquettes and the Pistachio Whipped Feta. Just take my money and call it a day.If you find their food truck and they happen to be serving breakfast burritos, order one. Actually order seven. In the breakfast burrito-obsessed world of Colorado, theirs are TOP TIER. These are craveworthy. Like going out in a blizzard craveworthy!I'm one of Gio and Hayden's biggest fans. They've accomplished so much in a short period of time, but I have a feeling they have big things on their horizon. Wonderful people, excellent food, and a burning desire to do good in this world. If that isn't the recipe for success and happiness, I don't know what is."

El Poblano

★★★★★ 4.8 (81) • $

"Went here on a whim cause we didn't feel like cooking or going too far to grab take out and it was a great decision. I am stuffed from all this food. We got 2 tacos each of steak, brisket, and marinated pork ($2.50 per taco) and an order of quesabirria tacos (about $14. Estimating from total as it wasn't labeled) for a total of $29. Every taco has a good amount of meat in them especially the birria ones. The flavor was good on all of them. The marinated pork was my favorite cause I'm a sucker for a good al pastor taco. The meats were all tender and juicy. I think $30 was a good They were super fast with ordering and getting our food to us. Only bad thing was the limes were kinda dry but that's not their fault anyway. It was a windy day and we were getting our food to go but there is seating if you wanted to eat there. I will definitely be going back (and bringing friends) since it's so close, cheap, and good!! Highly recommend this place!!"

Q's Quisine

★★★★☆ 4.3 (100) • $$

"Friendly staff. Brisket was soggy, watery.Had fries as a side and asked for ketchup- There was none.Price was $13 for a meal and a side. Moderate price for a food truck.6.8/ 10"

el consome de morelos

★★★★★ 4.6 (65) • $$

"This little taco truck is right in front of a dingy and dirty bar for dirt cheap drinks and smart for this business because once they're drunk they can purchase tacos from them. This place doesn't have a price on their truck and when asked it almost felt like the lady was annoyed. I then spoke Spanish to her, just to show her I'm no gringa. I asked to try out their carne asada and its the best thing ever!!!Made with homemade tortilla, carne, cilantro and onions with limes... I had an party in my mouth. Idk what is up with Denver CO but this place seems to not like black people. Idk same attitude was given just at the other location. Bad customer service but the food was great. Would I come back, Hell yeah! Next time if the attitude is given and I'm going to give it back."

Taco Bron

★★★★☆ 4.4 (71) • $$

"This is a new taco spot in downtown Denver and first impressions, it's very clean with a lot of seating options and there's a lot of room so you don't feel cramped. There are so many taco options and if you come early, they have a breakfast menu.I ordered the Al Pastor and Cubano tacos and both were so good. Both tacos have a lot of flavor and you get a good amount of protein in each. There is a sauce station near the napkins so don't forget to add some salsa and onions to your taco order."

Gyro King

★★★★★ 4.8 (57) • $$

"This food truck was amazing. Quick service, incredible Gyros and so convenient in downtown near the bars! Definitely want to come back!"

El Lechon

★★★★★ 4.5 (60)

"Just mouth wateringly (is that a word?!) delicious authentic Mexican food. Everything was so delicious and made fresh on the spot. We were just obsessed with everything and so happy and so full and can't wait to come back for more on our next trip to Colorado! GO HERE!!!"

Mile High City Sliders

★★★★★ 4.8 (41) • $

"Holy crap. These are probably the best sliders I've ever had.Like, standing outside the truck is legit difficult because of how good it smells. Believe you me I did quick mental math on if I could hoist myself up through the order window and steal literally all of the burgers before they noticed. I opted instead on paying and waiting like a normal human being. I ordered two doubles, and they were both amazing. Though honestly I couldn't quite tell them apart. Would've loved a little more aggressive flavor -- but I also don't really care too much.Guys, they're awesome. They're SO good. Two doubles is perfect if you want to pretend you're fat but still be like hey it's not THAT much food! They're just so good. I was angry I wasn't starving to death because I wanted to eat like 400 sliders. Look I know this is hyperbolic and all, but I'm immediately a massive fan of this food truck and cannot wait to follow them around town to breweries."

Amore Pizza

★★★★☆ 4.1 (48) • $

"One of the best food trucks I've ever encountered. We were in the mood for a slice 'o pizza and the place we wanted to go to was closed, but lucky for us, we saw the Amore Pizza truck while we were walking to the car.Holy smokes, this is great pizza, and the prices are very reasonable. It's New York-style pizza, the kind you and fold in half and eat if you so desire. The guy running the place makes the experience all the better.If you see the Amore Pizza truck, drop everything and get a slice of their NY-style pizza!"

Big Jim's Ribs Tickler

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (82) • $$

"I decided to try this place today. 03/25/2023. I do not understand why people are saying bad things about this place. The BBQ is on point. The meats (mild sausage/brisket and by back ribs) are great. I will be back again and the service is totally on point. Super friendly and fast. Keep up the good work."

Mestizos Mile High Eats

★★★★☆ 4.1 (41) • $

"MESTIZOS!Wow.I had 3 tacos. Chicken, Veggie and Al Pastor. They were all 3 incredible and I couldn't even hardly tell which was which because of all the unexpected and interesting ingredients! I don't know how they pack so much onto the tortillas without them ripping but they are experts!I have never in my life met a more friendly person at a food truck. The man taking our orders was friendly and had excellent customer service skills.One thing: definitely ask them what is on the tacos/burrito/nachos. There are a lot of unexpected ingredients and if you have any dietary restrictions you might be surprised in a bad way.Mestizos! Come to Lowry every Friday!"

ShaWING

★★★★☆ 3.5 (50) • $$

"Considering the current pandemic going on, I am happy that food trucks are still going. My friends were in town and we decided one night was wing night. With that being said I ordered buffalo wings with fries and my wife ordered chicken tenders with their buttered potatoes. Onto the food!As always, we must first get the bad out of the way! Or more like not what I was expecting. This being the buttered potatoes. They were well done, but the extreme amount of butter was astonishing. I understand their name, but simply the butter overpowered me and my wife. Overall, a very well done potato but a pinch less butter and it would be perfect! At least for us.Now the wings. This was an amazing set of wings. Crunchy and crispy to the bone. The buffalo sauce was your standard sauce, but the wing it paired with was the absolute star. The chicken tenders were well done, I wish some were a tad bit thicker but overall worth the buy. I would recommend their BBQ sauce with these. The fries were also well done as they were not soggy and had a perfect amount of seasoning. Not too salty and a good amount.Overall, ShaWING does an excellent job at their wings. They are a tad bit on the high side so watch out if you're on a budget. They are worth the try and I hope I find them soon!"

Laziz Ya Lebanese

★★★★★ 4.9 (24)

"It was a rainy and cold day. I knew that Laziz Ya Lebanese food truck was scheduled to be nearby. Then I thought to myself, "it's so rainy, they probably decided not to come by, but I'll go ahead and check." Thank goodness I did, because they showed up, and their food is just WOW! I ordered the chicken shawarma plate. It comes with tender juicy chicken fillets pieces, garlic sauce and your choices of sides. I opted for the hummus and fattoush salad. I'm not kidding when I say this was the best dinner I've had from a food truck. I also ordered a side of their fries, which is your good ol' standard crinkle fries. Often times food trucks just have frozen food reheated. I'm definitely don't think that's the case here, the food tasted fresh and hot! Plus it took around 15-20 minutes for the food.Service was awesome too, the lady helping me at check out was very kind. 5/5. I will absolutely be back, I'm a customer for life."

La Keka Mexican Food

★★★★★ 4.7 (25) • $

"I don't normally rate food trucks but this one was extra special. The woman running it is absolutely incredible. She's funny, sassy and even taught me a little Spanish while I was there. The Chihuahua Dog she made me might be the very best hot dog I've ever had. It has bacon and onions, peppers etc and is quite spicy. It was mouth watering and the smell while she was cooking it made me even hungrier. This is located near the exit of the Home Depot in Bear Valley. The dog, chips and a drink was around nine bucks. It was worth every penny."

Lily's Cocina

★★★★★ 4.6 (25) • $

"Food was solid. Had seen some reviews on this place but I'm never in the area. Finally made it out and it didn't disappoint."

Nopal by Taco Block

★★★★★ 5 (17) • $

"What a great find! I looked up vegan tacos on yelp and this spot came up. My boyfriend and I went to go check it out and I am soo glad we did. This little place is amazing. The vegan taco is sooo good, for real. It's not just some shitty afterthought vegan taco, it's the real deal delish. Also, the people working were SO friendly and accommodating. They set us up in the little bus outback, brought us some waters and sauces, checked up on us a few times to see if we needed anything. They really went above and beyond, they were truly wonderful. I highly recommend this place."

Taqueria Nueva Union

★★★★★ 4.8 (17)

Casa Mariachi

★★★★☆ 4.2 (19)

"Simple, cheap & convenient! I enjoy driving up and ordering a burrito or breakfast taco & having it in just a few minutes - fresh. I've never had any problems here and unlike the below reviews I feel it's priced reasonably. The burritos are always packed with ingredients and the hot sauce adds a nice flavor.Definitely a Sunday ritual before football starts! They also cater any event you may have not just breakfast food but Casa Mariachi menu items"

Taquitos Jalisco

★★★★★ 4.8 (14)

Just Kool Jamaican Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.3 (16)

"This is a cool food truck off Tower and Hampden. Great service and people. The food was solid but not memorable, the Mac & Cheese was served cold, I also didn't know it was part of a Jamaican meal. The price was fair, it's hard to find Caribbean foods anywhere in Aurora so this was a pleasant find, I will take it!"

Dos Abuelas

★★★★☆ 3.7 (19) • $$

"This truck is so underrated. Why people haven't started lining up down the block is beyond me. My favorite, by far, is The Rican sandwich. I don't know exactly what is in it, but it's magical. I've been hard at work to evangelize the special sammie that has captured my heart. Can you be IN LOVE with a sandwich? I'm ready to put a ring on it. Find this little truck at Finn's Manor most days of the week. LOVE IT."

Don carlos Taco Chop

★★★★★ 4.5 (11)

Tacos Y Tortas La Reyna Azteca

★★★★★ 4.5 (11)

"Amazing barbacoa tacos! Carnitas was a little dry and lacking in flavor. Al pastor and asada were standard. $3/taco as of February 2025. Quick to order and about 10 minutes for food to be ready. This food truck is located in the parking lot of the Advanced Auto Parts store. There is no seating available. They do take card and apple/google pay."

Que Desmadre

★★★★★ 5 (7)

"For Cinco de Mayo, Que Desmadre served up Tacos in front of Goldspot Brewing Company! We got a "flight" of Mexico City style tacos and they did not disappoint!The Cilantro Crema & Salsa that came with them were delicious. The Chicken and Pastor tacos were especially fantastic and paired wonderfully with our Cinco de Mayo Cervezeria Lagers."

The Mac Shack

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (18)

"Great customer service and I was able to customize my mac and cheese!Conveniently located at Edgewater Public Market. There is a parking lot but it gets full quickly, there is also street parking available. The Mac Shack offers several different mac and cheese selections! The menu is on a screen to the side and you can order at the counter with a tablet. I got the chicken and bacon mac :) It normally comes with siracha but I'm not a big spicy flavor person. There was not a place for me to make comments or customizations on the tablet but I talked to the girl behind the counter and she said she wouldn't put the siracha on mine. It was about 10-15mins.Very large portion! Hot and fresh! Gooey cheese and crispy chicken and bacon! I would defiently go back and try another mac and cheese option.The customer service was great! Very sweet girl and very understanding and helpful with my customized mac. I can't wait to go back and try another :)"

Chef In a Box

★★★★★ 5 (6)

"This brat cart outside Home Depot does a great job. The food is consistent and delicious. They have brats, hot dogs, burritos, burgers & tortas. The staff is always welcoming and outgoing. Anytime i sm in the area i stop by for lunch or a "brat snack". Keep up the good work!!"

Bodega Cuban Kitchen

★★★★★ 5 (6)

"Gamechanger sandwiches. The croquettes are like little cordon bleu mozzarella sticks with an amazing dipping sauce. You have never had a turkey sandwich or a Cubano like these! Such well thought out food."

JALIS-CO Food Truck

★★★★★ 4.6 (7)

"I was a damn fool for not coming over here and trying out the food before. It's absolutely an amazing experience eating this food. You owe it to yourself just to go try it. There is a reason why I go to food trucks like this. It's because of the love in the food that they add."

Baja Bertos Beachside Burritos

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (14)

"We moved to Colorado from Southern California, specifically San Diego and then Los Angeles and we have been searching for a burrito that resembles the Baja Mexican food we love and miss. Baja Berto's is exactly that! We wish it was easier to find his truck especially on the weekends when all we want is a good authentic breakfast burrito! But when you can find it it is the best Mexican in Denver we have found!"

Famous Amos Tacos

★★★★☆ 4 (8)

"The taco plate was delicious. Great food and good value. Highly recommend stopping here, very friendly owners"
