  • Kriscia

    Awesome local taco spot. Delicious tacos de asada, great service, highly recommend. The horchata wasn't as flavorful as I expected, too watery. Dog friendly. First time I went, I only got a picture of my empty plate cuz they were too good.

  • Nancy Brogdon

    Best tàcos in town. Authentic hand made tortillas, empanadas that are to die for. Super clean...literally the cleanest taco truck in town, we go to a lot. My wife eats lunch here at least twice a week. Everytime it is kudos to the abuelita cooking id drive across the state for her empanadas!!!

  • Estephan Espinoza

    I have lived in Tampa for about 16 years. I have had the blessing in the curse of growing up in an authentic Mexican household, so I had access to authentic homemade Mexican food for most of my childhood until my Abuela passed away. I say it is a curse also because her food was so delicious. It’s hard for me to find any good authentic Mexican food, needless to say it’s been 16 years and this food truck is as close as I possibly can get! Their barbacoa and al pastor is phenomenal their homemade corn tortillas and gorditas are amazing! Do yourself a favor and make the trip out here you will not be disappointed!!

  • Chris A
