We rolled up on this spot sunday evening and Im not gonna lie I was expecting a lot from this spot. Turns out to be a very mid level taco truck experinece. The seasoning from the proteins to the salsa was lacking. No guacamole which was odd and a bit overpriced for the portion sizes. The cashier had poor English speaking skills which is fine but her disposition and attitude made this an entirely unpleasant experience that I wouldnt wish on anyone. I dodnt even want to take photos the food was so mid. I had much better tacos at COA and Bartaco. Oscar's taco shop is a better option for quesadillias. All in all it was a very dissapointing experience i had to get quesidillia sausce from cookout and smother the food just to somewhat enjoy it. But I cannot say this enough the worst part was the cashier you have to have better disposition and attitude in hospitality. Even in a food truck your guests should feel welcome.

Grateful that this is my neighborhood taco truck. My husband loves the quesabirria, while I adore the humble bean and cheese burro. I don’t think there is anything more satisfying in Nashville for $6.50. The periodic specials (tomato tostada, tamales, etc.) are also delightful. I would love a more vegetal option every now and then (the Brussels sprouts are great, albeit deep fried), but that’s the only demurral to my praise.

So delicious and the man there was so friendly. I got the beef burrito and it was one of the best burritos I’ve ever had!!

I usually get the fish tacos here (amazing), but the carne asada burrito blew me away today! Homemade flour tortilla and so flavorful. I feel bad I didn't take a photo before we ate it all.

I’ve been following this restaurant for a while now and was looking forward to trying them out when in town. When you pull up it’s an older “dingy” food truck which is usually a good sign from my experience. I knocked as the note said and was immediately greeted by the employee. He kindly took my order and told me 10 mins. He was friendly and polite which is all I could ask for. The food came out quickly and was hot as hot food should be. The birria tacos were delicious all by themselves and didn’t need the consumè. And I like that the cilantro and onions come in the side. I also got the elotes which has the option of on or off the cob. I got off. The flavor was nice and it was good to see a more “traditional” elotes and not some random dish with corn being called elotes. Just simple corn, mayo, spice and cheese. We also ordered the bean and cheese burrito which is extremely reasonably priced for the side and also hot when it came out. My only request would be a little more salt in the beans but over all I was happy. All in all good food and a fair price. As for seating there isn’t any unless you are drinking at the bar, which we weren’t so we ate off the hood of The car which wasn’t the easiest thing with the weather blowing everything around. Maybe they allow you to sit there and not purchase drinks but we didn’t want to risk it
