After a long day at work, this was the nearest truck near the airport, they have the best tacos and not greedy with the portion, and the gorditas were amazing, definitely will come here again!

Very good tacos de trompo y de tripa. Quality was good and they did the job. Salsa were very good. They also had all the trimmings: cilantro, cebolla asado, onions and limes. Only negative is parking lot needs some lighting.

Ok, this will definitely be my new taco spot! I am pretty particular and this place checked all my boxes. The tortillas taste so good and have the perfect amount of crisp, the flavorful meat (and plenty of it) even the spicy potato you get are all so good. I was even asked how I like my tripa. I prefer it crispy and it was on point. I usually never order tripa because most places just do a horrible job, but I really enjoyed theirs. Most importantly…”drum roll”….the salsa is ACTUALLY spicy! Can’t stand getting some weak salsa. Stop and try this place fast!

Update: I got to be honest about my reviews and ever since the first time I've visited this place.. flavor and consistency has gone down...tacos do not taste the same as the first time I'l tried them... frijoles charros are extremely salty and tacos same.. tortilla is very dry... ________ give it a 10+.. excellent flavor... Get Tacos de Bistek...so good 🤤... nice place.. right in front of 59N at Hopper ...open space.. clean.. CC accepted 😉
