This was our go to spot ever since I can remember visiting my grandma's house down the street by the car wash. They have gone up on their prices and I was aware of that. It has been a while since I visited maybe a year or so. So I decided to try them again. On 2 tacos/quesadillas,frijoles and a small drink I paid about $12. They used to come with lots of cheese and now as you can see it's barely there. Same for salsa verde. The little container would be filled up and now it was barely enough. They are fast but is it worth it ? Nah! Not anymore.

Came here on a late-night-creep to enjoy one last savory bite before the end of a long night, after a yelp event and post drinks. Thanks, Lupe!Luckily, Jen and I ran into our wonderful Houston CM, Jando, that helped guide us on ordering. As this was our first time here.It's tucked away, but the place was on and popping in the late night hours. Open late, ideal for the munchies and late night snackers. Customers were enjoying their tacos on side streets & outside. It's cash only. We were strapted on cash, so we knew we would have to share this meal. We ordered what we could, based on what we had. We got 4 quesadilla style tacos for about $15. Wow, what a deal! I liked that they had mild and medium sauce. And that they gave fresh veggies on the side so you control the amount of lime, onion, cilantro, etc, on your taco.No pics, but it did happen promise! Ha!

How amazing are these tacos?Remember the first Fast & Furious movie? The scene where they do the first race and Brian hits that NOS button and you see the graphic of the NOS shooting through hitting the engine and boosting the car? That's how I felt after taking my first bite of the tacos here.First time here was on a Tuesday (taco Tuesday as you know me), the line was 8 deep as I stood there thinking I will be here forever. Then before I knew it, I'm at the window ordering the Plato especial (fajita w/ cheese and about 8 tortillas) and added a lengua taco since I was tongue-tied (get it?). The lengua taco was some of the best lengua I've had in Houston, succulent and the right amount of seasoning. The Plato especial is perfect for building your own tacos with the tortillas and putting on the salsas they provide which give the tacos a nice touch. The fajita and cheese had perfect texture, flavor, and that nice balance of grease and firmness. Buen Trabajo!!!!!The line gets long but they move fast and the tacos are worth the wait. Massive props to the people in the truck for the efficient service and getting people what they want. I saw one police officer come up with a huge order of about 20 tacos and 10 quesadillas and they had it out within 2-3 minutes. Faster than an F1 car! Also cash only so have that with you.No doubt Im coming back; of course you'd figure that with this review!

Best lengua tacos I've had in Houston so far. Line was long but don't let that deter you. Line moves fast. Parking can be a bit complicated though cause you'll see people eating in their cars which is common. We ordered more than a dozen quesadilla tacos. I thought all the meats were good but the lengua and trompo were my favorite. The horchata was good too.

Finally got to try out this gem thanks to our lovely CM Jando's recommendation (And I got to see first hand how fluent his Spanish was: Let's just say it's somewhere in the level 5: Native/Bilingual Proficiency area if you're on LinkedIn, while by contrast I'm still at the Duolingo elementary popcorn vocabulary level..)Anyways I definitely see the hype about this place, delicious tacos/fast service/opens late/cheap.. Personally I always enjoy a simple menu where a place knows what they offer and do it with efficiency/friendly service. I enjoyed my barbacoa taco as recommended, seasoned well, a bit dry but delicious. Lengua I wasn't a particular fan but it's a popular pick. Would definitely try the fajitas next time as well and their charro beans.As mentioned make sure you get cash ready and parking can be crowded in the lot across but there's street parking available adjacent.

Their Trompo was really fatty and tough to chew. I ended up throwing it away. I get that meat prices have gone up but $18/lb is approaching high end BBQ pricing.Their quality of meat doesn't justify the high prices for a food truck. I think they are living on borrowed time.
