Was around the neighborhood and was feeling taco Tuesday, I went to this food cart and was glad I did. The tacos were really delicious and the chicken platter was good. Will definitely be ordering again from this cart. Friendly workers and delicious food.

Enjoyed a milanesa de res torta. I was somewhat skeptical, as the cutlet had been partially precooked and spent a long time on the flat top, but it turned out tasty and tender. The roll was very fresh. The sandwich came with cotija cheese, pickled jalapeno, lettuce, tomato and two salsas - one may have been a Leon valley sauce - and was absolutely delicious. Washed it down with a tamarindo - can't thick of a tastier lunch for under $10.

Overall ***** This is a new food truck near my office that I tried on a whim and I'm so glad I took a chance on it as the Tacos are delicious and a very good deal as well. The first time here I got 3 tacos, 1 Chicken (too dry), 1 Steak and 1 Chorizo. 3 Tacos were way too much, since then I have cut it back to 1 Steak and 1 Chorizo with "everything". They are absolutely fantastic and addicting to the point that after that first day I came back here the next five days in a row and seven out of the next 10 days!! I know I have a problem! The Tacos are $3 each, add $1 for cheese which is very fair, the only downside I have found that I need to get there by 11:30 because the process takes a while and they can get very busy so it's not a quick lunch grab. I have seen them take phone orders.

Not the best taco truck of all time but for reasonably priced tacos in midtown NYC this is great. Tacos are $3 a piece and are much bigger portions than what you would get at a dos caminos. They also probably took less than 5 minutes to get which is a huge plus on a busy corner.

This was one of my first Mexican food trucks and it was definitely worth it. I had to walk a couple of blocks in the rain to get them but it was worth it. They have a nice selection of dishes (quesadilla, burritos, hot sausages, tacos, etc) all served with a salad. Also each of these items have different meat options you can choose from. For example, you can have a chicken or beef quesadilla. I ordered the chicken burrito and it was not a disappointment. I also went into this experience starving and in desperate need of something warm (my office is freezing). Not only was it delicious but the portion was rather massive (or I should say the filling inside the burrito was incredibly filling). My chicken burrito came with rice, beans, chicken, cheese, and a whole lot of deliciousness. Also you can get your burrito splattered with different sauces. If you want the spicy one (and really live spicy food) make sure to mention you want it very spicy.

Just happened to be walking by, my first time even seeing his cart. It was a little after lunch time so it wasn't that crowded and was able to ask some questions about their extensive menu. I decided to go with their tacos. I got the classic of Al Pastor, 2 of them, and one Carnitas. They were $3 each, pretty good considering that Dos Toros and Chipotle are charging much more. They were classic Mexican tacos, very tasty and the ingredients were fresh! The tortilla tacos were nice and warm, the pork and beef were very tasty with great flavor. Are they the best tacos I've ever had? No! But based on what you pay and where you get it from, the value is really great! It's fast without fuss! I would definitely visit here again to try their other menu items! Enjoy!
