Taco Fuego

Finally decided to try this place out after hearing about it from multiple people. The wait was not too bad, it was roughly 30 minutes, but considering the amount of people that were there I was fine with it. We got the quesabirria de res, the empanadas, the flautas, and the Mexican street corn. Everything was good, but the flautas were absolutely amazing! The quesabirria de res wasn't my favorite, but that was just a personal taste preference. The service was also really good too. I had ordered the churros, but got home to see that they didn't include it with my food despite being charged for it. I reached out to the establishment and they were able to refund me for the missing items. I'll definitely be back here again!

Had the opportunity to try Taco Fuego a few times and this location is definitely the one you want to come to. Each time I've gone, I've always gotten the taco birria and it's never been a disappointment. The meat is extremely tender and the dipping sauce- oh my damn! So freaking good! Now, be warned, this is not a dish you eat in your car, especially a car you just had washed. Due to the fact that it's so juicy, there may be spillage. Word to the wise- eat it at home or eat outside your car. I recently tried their loaded fries, quesadilla and churros. All three were also perfect. However, if I had to only choose one item, it would be the quesadilla. Their birria tacos and quesadilla are my go to items. The food is incredible at both locations but the customer service at THIS location is what sets the bar. Luis always greats me with a smile and Melvis (or is it Melvin?) treats me like we're family. Some places have great food but when customer service sucks, it's just a total turn off. I am happy that's not the case here.

2nd time here. First time after waiting in line for 10 minutes, we told birria would not be available for a minimum of 30 minutes.This time, long wait, two guys working very hard, so they are understaffed. When we got the food, the experience was underwhelming. The quesabirria was okay but the meat wasn't as saturated as I expected. And the dipping consomme? I've made birria de res before. This consomme was very different . It was overly acidic (heavy on the citrus) and no real meat taste. The corn was good but the toppings weren't substantial enough to coat the rest of the elote when mixed.

5 star taquitos!! Super crispy and delicious! The chicken is so yummy. Third time here now. The texas taco is also bomb (1 is definitely enough) 4 stars not for the business itself, but there's quite a few shady people hanging around the side street, drinking, littering.. I wouldn't want to be alone at night around them. So heads up.

I have been wanting to try birria tacos. Saw this truck that sells them and decided to give them a try. I ordered the birria tacos with consume, the chicken empanadas and the chicken flautas. Honestly I didn't care for the birria tacos. The beef had a great flavor but the texture I could not get with. The meat was too mushy for me. But the flautas were so good and fried to perfection. It came with crema, cilantro and pickled onions. Oh my goodness so good. The chicken empanadas were delicious as well. It came with a green sauce that added extra flavor. I do want to go back for the flautas and maybe try the burrito next time. I just know that birria tacos is not something I would get.

UPDATE- 3/16/22. I have posted my reviews, emailed & sent my photos on FB messenger. Instead of addressing one single concern, they have blocked me LOL. If you don't want a business straight up stealing from you- go see THE BIRRIA QUEEN OR BEIRUT STREET FOOD INSTEAD. Trust me!This location consistently gets my order wrong. I tried to support because it's good but this has become ridiculous. Today was the last straw.I ordered via DoorDash. Because of previous mistakes, I put a note on EVERY item about what it was missing in previous orders. Well guess what, every single item was wrong again. At this point they have to be trolling me. I could not have been any clearer about what was missing. I literally broke down my order very simply.See the photos.Try Taco Fuego, but keep it moving from this location. They're clearly incompetent & will take your money, without caring to fulfill your order.

This was my first taste of barria tacos so keep that in mind but I really enjoyed these. The tacos were cheesy and filled with huge chunks of beef. The sauce that the tacos are dipped in was good but didn't have nearly the amount of flavor as the tacos. It was also very loose and didn't really coat the tacos as much as I would have liked. I ended up ditching it all together and just enjoyed the tacos on their own.I also had their street corn and this was delicious! Plump kernels topped with lots of quality cotija and a perfect finish of lime. No matter what I get next time Elote is going to be in the line up.All in all I liked this place. The food was yummy and the service was nice and fairly quick. Worth a try!

Loved the food here.The empanadas are great. Also liked the shrimp taco. 3 bulbous shrimp and very tasty. I tried the birria burger and it was just so so. Finally the shrimp torta was good but a bit pricey. Actually in general their food is pricey. But worth it. Be sure to grab amangonada from the truck right next to them.Final grade: B+

So many delicious drunken food memories here. If you want to Taco about how much cheaper booze and the food here is than therapy than we can taco about it. I love the brisket tortas here. And the tacos are always fresh and hot and flavorful. It's a great place to grab a late night bite.

As I was in the galleria district, I decided to try some birria tacos from Taco Fuego. I'd suggest having a little patience when ordering from any of the food trucks. In my opinion Taco Fuego is definitely worth the wait. I'm a native of California, I've tried birria tacos in every state I visited. These are the ABSOLUTE BEST birria tacos I've had. Yes the best! The birria taco is a special taco, the meat to cheese ratio is very important. Taco Fuego has mastered the birria taco! The meat was seasoned well, every bite was meet with nice gooey cheese! The consistency of the consommé was perfect. Not too liquidity, very rich in flavor. Every dip made me regret my decision to buy modest. I thought drinking the consommé would be too much. I got as many dips as I could! If you're visiting or a native to Houston. Give Taco Fuego a shot!
