Taco Cacao

This place was OK, and I'm glad I tried it. It has been on the list for a while, and when I saw them setup at the Waldo Fall Fest I had to partake. Food trucks can be so boom or bust, depending on how quickly they crank things out, the lines, etc. This one had a short line but a bit of a long wait for two tacos. I kinda regretted it as I waited and waited, but that went away when I received my two chicken al pastor tacos. Both were made well (meaning they didn't fall apart the second I picked them up) and had pretty good flavoring in the toppings. I feel like the meat could have had a bit more flavor. Service-wise, it was OK in that they were pretty no nonsense in that there was no conversation, you order, pay and wait. Not unfriendly, but not the most welcoming. All in all, I've had better tacos but I appreciated trying them out and would consider heading their way again next time I see them out in the wild.

If you don't appreciate authentic Mexican, this may be a good option, but in my opinion, it's very bland. I've tried to like this place, but it's been underwhelming every time we've tried various options. I also wouldn't consider the staff to be the friendliest. (coming from a midwesterner with a high spice tolerance & doubles seasonings for every recipe so take my opinion as you wish!)

So, SO happy I stumbled upon the Taco Cacao Food Truck on a rainy Tuesday afternoon...after years of wanting to try the tiny location on busy Wornall Road I was able to walk up and treat myself to a taco Tuesday! The food truck had parked itself in the visible location down the street from Cellar Rat and directly across from the Mexican Consolate in the Crossroads district. I wad stuck in a soggy situation and the white and red taco truck was a beacon shining in the rain awaiting my hunger to approach it. I confidently chose the red pork taco and the chicken pastor and the total was a tad bit surprising at $7 so $3.50 per taco but, I was withholding judgement for the taste test and boy, was I glad I did. These tacos were stuffed with heaping helpings of fresh meat and topped with plenty of pickled onions and crema. They were well worth their price tag. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the "red pork" taco consisted of tender juicy shredded pork, not the usual chunks of red pork that I'm used to at other Mexican restaurants. This just might be one of my top tacos ever! It coated my hands with the best red residue imaginable, that was top tier meat juice right there, you got the believe that I made sure to sop up all of it! The chicken pastor, so chicken cooked in pineapple, was ground which I also wasn't expecting and the crema that was on top of thus taco was a flavor bomb. All in all I preferred the pork taco over the chicken taco but both were a delicious way to celebrate Taco Tuesday albeit a little water logged.

Definitely don't recommend.. yes I did get ful size was pretty good but soooo bland and all you could taste was the salt in the rice couldn't even tell there was meat in it and gave me a cup of salsa not even half filled. I don't recommend

Taco Cacao is one of my favorite places in Kansas City to get authentic tacos. Taco Cacao is popular & well-known to KC locals as one of the best places to get tacos for many reasons. I'd also personally recommend ordering the side of rice along with your tacos because it is absolutely delicious! You may have seen this food truck driving around Kansas City, but did you know that you could go in person to buy your tacos as well at an actual stand? Eat your tacos outside or take them with you and eat them wherever you'd like! We ended up taking our tacos to a local park and having a picnic! Make sure to stop at this taco stand or at one of the taco trucks driving around the greater Kansas City area today!

Delicious Asada Tacos. Some of the best tortillas I've had at a taco place in Kansas City.

These were some of worst tacos I've had in recent memory. I ordered a birria, an asada, and a chicken al pastor. Pastor was edible, but the asada meat looked grey and low grade and wasn't seasoned well. Didn't even try the birria. also there big chunks of onion and cilantro that wasn't diced. Tacos El Tio for life!

AN ABSOLUTE GEM! Taco cacao has been on my list for a while but it was difficult to get to since they close at 8. But I finally was able to order the chicken, carne asada, and pork tacos! The chicken and carne asada were my favorite. Every time I took a bite it was an explosion of flavor in my mouth. The tacos were double layered tortillas and stuffed with a good amount of meat/toppings. Each tacos was about $2.50 - $3 but worth it. 3 tacos satisfied my craving - I bet if they had chips and queso it would be a game changer. I'll definitely be coming back to try the other tacos!

Best taco spot in the area! We love coming back here because we know the food will be amazing every time
