El Taco Bus

I've been craving burritos lately. As in like, I could eat a burrito for at least one meal a day and still want another. So when I had to drive through Norwood for a doctor's appointment I pulled up Yelp to find the best burrito spot en route.Happy to have come across El Taco Bus for just that need! I sent a fb message before heading out to make sure he'd be there, since this is corona season and I don't know what kind of chances he's taking. Turns out, there's not much "social distancing" being practiced with the taco truck. No one was hanging out right there, but it was basically the same as any other taco transaction - you roll up, place an order, hand over the cash (cash only business), keep it moving.I ordered a steak burrito with salsa verde and extra beans instead of rice. He chucked all the toppings on the flat top for a few minutes, rolled it up in a monster, and dropped it under the press to get a nice sear on the shell. That, to me, is an essential next step. I don't want a soggy, fall to pieces, burrito. El Taco Bus delivered a perfect burrito. Brought it home and threw it on a bed of spinach and lettuce, topped it with the salsa, and sliced it open.There's a layer of delicious melty cheese, thick pieces of juicy steak, and plenty of cilantro and onions for flavor. The salsa verde was an excellent choice as well, it brought the full blast of onion and cilantro in every bite.Well worth the stop!

Just discovered El Taco Bus parked on Vine street in Carthage today. My son went a couple weeks ago and told me it was a "must stop." He was right. Incredibly reasonably priced, fantastic traditional street tacos (served with onions and cilantro - and cheese if you ask for it). Be sure to get the cilantro lime sauce on it. If he asks if you want it spicy, be prepared because they are definitely spicy. Antonio served up some tasty lunch today and it was quick. Please note - they only take cash.

I love eating meals from Food Trucks. They always hit the spot! Especially this particular one. If you love hidden Mexican food gems this is definately one of them. 100% Authentic and delicious! Parked next to the Norwood Drive Thru. There is a picnic table and if you want to enjoy some beers, feel free to stop by the Drive thru! It's so convenient! They've only been there for a couple of weeks, but every time I Drive by, there's always new customers checking it out. We just had to try it. We are walking distance so it was perfect! Not sure how long they will be there but I heard from our mailman that they remain thru the summer.FYI, they only accept cash. The menu itself is very simple. They have burritos, tacos (corn, not flour) at $2.00 each (you can choose from their list what kind of taco you like), quesadillas, tortas, and chicherron con cueritos.My Mr and I got three tacos a piece.-Barbacoa-Pastor-Chorrizo-Asada-Carnitas-CampechanosWe got our food to go. When we got home! Omg, we ate everything! Fresh ingredients with a side of salsa verde, spicy red sauce (In ramekins), slices of cucumbers and radishes. They also put on the side sautéed onions and a Serrano if you want additions on you tacos. The proteins were seasoned just right! My favorite is the Chorrizo (nice kick) and Barbacoa. We are definitely coming back! My Mr would like to try the burritos and possibly a Torta for me. I highly recommend! Service was great and food was top notch!

Wanna taco 'bout a great new hidden gem in Norwood? Right on! Let me tell ya about El Taco Bus! Located in front of Norwood Drive Thru on Montgomery Road, this little bus is anything but little when it comes to flavor. My lady and I had driven past it a few times and were always intrigued by this little bus, so we decided to one day try it out, and we're definitely glad we did. We both ordered three tacos (She had the pastor, chorizo, and barbacoa. I had the asada, carnitas, and campechanos) and we enjoyed each one to the last bite. Plus, at $2 a taco, it was a steal for such tasty tacos. I absolutely have to commend the two guys working there for making this fantastic, authentic goodness!But the menu is more than just tacos. They also have burritos, quesadillas, tortas, and chicherron con cueritos. I'll likely try a burrito next time.I couldn't find a list of hours on the place and it may not be open year round, but if you find yourself in the area sometime soon, I highly recommend giving it a try. Then YOU'LL have something new to taco 'bout!

This taco bus is probably the best bang for your buck. With prices that are reasonable you still get really good food and that is why I am a repeat customer.

This is a small trailer parked in the lot of the Norwood Drive Thru, a short distance away from Quatmans. The El Taco Bus used to be parked here, and the fellow operating this trailer indicated the two businesses were/are connectedThey do mexican style tacos, which is to say dont expect lettuce/tomatoes/yellow shredded cheese.....you're getting onion, cilantro, and radish on top of your choice of any of roughly a half dozen proteins on doubled up soft corn tortillas, for 2 bucks each. They give you some lime wedges and some sauce on the side. They also do tortas and burritos. No written menu is available, just ask and maybe they have itI had 4 tacos - chorizo, barbacoa, carne asada, and el pastor; and wasnt too impressed with any of them. They weren't bad at all, just small and not very flavorful There's a small picnic table if you want to eat there, but I suspect most of their business is carryout. Beverages (including Jarritos and mexican Coca Cola) can be purchased from the drivein, just a few steps away I am unsure about their hours, and recommend having a backup plan for your meal if you head here, in case they arent openThis is a cash only business

El Taco Bus is legit authentic Mexican cuisine!!! We had the carnitas tacos, a quesadilla, and a burrito. All were excellent, and well worth what we paid! It pretty amazing the quality of food he turns out of that bus. Don't wait another minute! Get the Taco Bus in front on the drive thru on Montgomery rode just at the edge of Norwood. You'll thank me! UPDATE El Taco Bus in now located in the BP gas station lot corner of Montgomery and Norwood Ave.

My hubby and I stopped at El Taco Bus a few weeks ago. I had 2 asada tacos and my hubby had 2 pollo. The tacos were a nice size with a nice amount of filling. My hubby enjoyed the pollo. I wanted to taste one, but I waited to long for that to happen. LOL The asada was very tasty and tender and the soft corn tortillas were good also. Now. Here is the best part. I have a service dog. A REAL service dog that has been highly trained to make my life easier. Her name is Mia. Mia is an extremely picky eater and rarely eats meat or "people" food. However, she loved the asada even more than I did. So the next time I visit El Taco Bus I will be ordering an asada taco for her as well.

Love this place! Food is always fresh and service is friendly! Definitely recommend!Remember to grab cash.

Just amazing. The ingredients are fresh, the flavors delicate and complex, and the hot sauces quite unlike anyone else's. In a city with many excellent taco trucks, El Taco Bus manages to be exceptional.
