“This is my absolute favorite Mexican restaurant and by far the best food in North Alabama. Great atmosphere! Amazing service, thank you Luis and the guacamole to die for. The Mole sauce on the enchiladas is amazing and the shrimp cocktail is huge and very good. Just love this place. So much so I eat here almost every other night. Remember to support your local eateries so we do not starve.“
“I grew up in Hueytown,Al and Speedy's was our Sunday, after church, tradition. When I was little I honestly couldn't stand Tex Mex, Mexican food, but I always LOVED Speedy's humungous taco salads, and their mind blowing Combo burritos. There's nothing out of the norm with their recipe, or ingredients, nothing that's a radical departure from any other recipe, as far as I can tell, but there's honestly nothing better. Their salsa is phenomenal. I don't know what they make it from, but I've never had another like it. It haunts my taste buds, in the greatest way possible.I moved away from Hueytown over twenty years ago, and I found myself always wanting their food. i have seriously driven over 7 hours on occasion, just to go get some of their amazing, delectable, other worldly food and salsa. I've lived all over the country, lived in Texas, around some of the world's most authentic, best Mexican and Tex Mex restaurants, food carts, street taco vendors, and as amazing as that experience was, I still always found myself wishing that it was Speedy's.Perhaps it's a psychological, childhood association, leaving a deeply seated love for their food and salsa? Perhaps they're evil geniuses, and brainwashed my taste buds, using the world's leading experts on food based psychological warfare? Or maybe it's just really and truly that phenomenal? Sadly, I don't get to go there nearly as much over the last few years. The only time I do ever seem to pass back through my hometown, is when I'm there for a loved one's funeral. And yes, it may be able to be inferred,that I may possibly choose to make that long drive, for my combo burritos and salsa, more so than being the dutiful family member. But that's because of the taste bud brainwashing, right?! I'm always horrified that I'll find out that they've closed or retired, or sold the restaurant off to someone that doesn't honor old ways. I'm always so fearful that I'll never again taste the sweet nectar of their salsa, the ambrosia that is their burritos. I can't recommended enough selling massive bottles of said salsa, and cryogenically frozen burritos. One day those could save the world, or at the very least, satisfy my intense cravings.Until we meet again, hopefully sooner than later, never close, never stop doing what you do, and feel free to franchise to other states, please.TL;DRFood really really good. Me like a lot. May or may not be secret taste bud, mind control agents, hell bent on hometown taste bud domination.“
“Very good Mexican food. The service is either very good or not great at all. It really depends on which young lady is working the window that day. One will offer you extra napkins and salsa. The other will snatch the money or card out of your hand or charge you a dollar for an extra cup of salsa.“
“Excellent premier best Latino cuisine MexicaliI had the lamb soup it was essential with hot peppers because I like it hot I was able to edit it was so much I have two servings very impressed with this very good food here thank you hats off to the chef“
“One of my favorite places with cozy and laid-back feel.?✅️?Vegetarian options: I'm sure one can order without meat and specify utensils to not touch any type of meats.Parking: Plenty and can park next door.Kid-friendliness: Have crayons and a sheet to stay busy.“
“I'm addicted, lol. I can't stay away from El Loco Taco Truck. Believe me, the food is GOOD. It's better han alot of Mexican resturants I have tried. I usually get the shrimp combo plate which comes with 3 shrimp tacos rice and beans or you can get 2 servings of rice instead of beans. They have a truck in McCalls and on Bessemer Rd.Vegetarian options: You can choose to have meatless foods.“
“Today we had my grandmothers funeral and had Diablo's for catering for the wake. It was a hit! The food was fantastic, they were on time and provided everything we needed (cups/silverware/plates). And the communication was great! We ordered the Deluxe Taco Bar and it was plenty for everyone! It came with all the different assortments of toppings that even the picky eaters enjoyed it. Also the price for it isn't bad at all. We would definitely recommend them for catering and will be using them again!“
“We were on the way back home and we stopped by this place. The food and the service was excellent, When we got there they were busy and we were greeted and seated fast. Great food selection and excellent service from the staff. Pricing is reasonable and their food was delicious. We ordered the combination parrillada, molcajetada and the shrimp quesadilla. Will definitely come back when we’re back in the area.“
“My husband found this place a few weeks ago. He first got me fajita nachos. I devoured those so sadly...no picture. A few days ago, I was craving fish and he remembered seeing a whole fish on their menu so he bought it for me. It was cooked very well. I just wish it was a bit more seasoned. Overall, we like their food and I'm sure we will order from them again soon. Oh..and they have karaoke. I might go sing a song one day.“
“I love this food truck! I usually visit this truck when it is behind Railroad Park. This food truck is very authentic and they even made me a vegetarian meal so they are very accomodating. I got two veggie tacos and they were so good. They also serve two different sauces in squeeze bottles in case you want more. They are only behind Railroad Park on the weekdays and they close pretty early so sometimes I can't make it there after class because they'll be closed by then. Overall they did a very good job, the food came out quickly, and everything tasted very good.“
