I'm not the kind of guy that likes to eat the same thing twice in a row. I crave variety like it's sold on street corners, so believe it when I tell you this place is special. I've eaten the same dish for dinner twice in a row because it was just too good. (Cabeza burrito)It's got mostly the options you'd expect from a Taco truck, but some that stand out as novel, too. I've had most anything on a Mexican restaurant menu before, but I've never had Tlacoyos before. They look like tacos with the tortillas fried, in the picture; trust me, I'm gonna try them soon. I mean, my girlfriend is the type to call black pepper spicy, and googles the ingredients before they'll eat them, and she STILL got the lengua! Twice!Listen, I mean what is there to dislike about this place other than the parking? As of March 2024, it's situated near Maya, the Mexican restaurant on Oxmoor Rd, off Green Springs, in a lot that gets pretty crowded quick. An hour or less till closing and they're packed, so try to come a little earlier if you want to find parking.They're lightning fast in that truck! I had my burrito in less than 10 minutes, and some of that time was us ordering. Incredible food, very friendly staff, and a mostly convenient location. You're making a terrible mistake if you don't come get you some. ¡Buen provecho!Parking: Parking lot, but it's got a building that's being worked on, so it might look sketchy at first. Trust, it's fine. They are super worth the tight right turn.Kid-friendliness: There's no dining in, so kids are fine if they don't run into the road or something.Wheelchair accessibility: Fairly flat ground, no need for a ramp. The exits from the lot are doable, but they are quite a dip.

My favorite taco truck in town! Always delicious and worth the price. They're never stingy with ingredients lol & there's a good selection of cold drinks. Only downside is the construction on the building nearby can make the parking lot crowded/difficult to navigate but it's never bad enough to dissuade me from going.Parking: Depending on what time of day you go, the parking lot can be crowded. Outside of peak times it's a breeze though
I had the opportunity to visit Los Valedores and bought some delicious flautas, as well as the green sauce that they had recommended so much to me. Excellent place.

This is my favorite Taco Truck. I normally eat here 3 times a week, same order each time (4) Al Pastor Tacos, light onions, red sauce only. I was very disappointed today when I came to order my favorite dish because this is now the second time I have come and other customers jump right in front of me before I can order. Unfortunately, I’m not fluent in Spanish so both times I tried to tell the customers I was in line I was completely ignored.Today 3 people jumped in front of me so I decided not to stay and wait. This is in no way the owners fault but I want the owner to know that this is happening and it's not fair to any of your customers especially your loyal customers.I have decided not to return anytime soon but would recommend signs or something to be placed for a line to form to try to prevent this from happening. I know this has happened to me twice now and I'm sure I'm not the only person who experienced this. I will try back in the new year to see if any changes have occurred but until then I wish this Food Truck all the Success in the Future.Thank you,MarkitaThis is my favorite taco truck.

This is not the owner's fault in any way, but I want the owner to know that this is happening and it is not fair to any of his customers, especially the loyal ones.I have decided not to return in the near future, but I would recommend putting up signs or something so that a line can form and try to prevent this from happening. I know this has happened to me twice now and I'm sure I'm not the only person who has experienced this. I'll try again in the new year to see if there have been any changes, but until then, I wish this food truck much success in the future.Thank you,Markita

Absolutely delicious! My favorites are the al pastor tacos and asada tlacoyos, both are flavorful and not something I could make at home. Kind and fast service - don’t forget to tip!p.s., if you are blessed with leftovers the next morning, put them in your air fryer and serve with a fried egg or two on top and a side of black beans - you’re welcome!
Very nice service, and delicious food. I recommend the Chicken Flautas and Chicken Quesadilla.

Today, I discovered the beauty of a 2 taco plate. Doesn't seem like much, you say... Let me tell you....I walked back to my car tonight with the heaviest plate I could carry.Food? Almost WAY TOO MUCH!!!Both of my tacos were loaded with meat, almost enough to make 2 more. Fresh lime, cilantro!!I have to split this review into portions.... I'm so stuffed!Now you ask about the taste???Let me tell you, I have never had a taco this amazing... The secret: the first taco was great. The second one... OUTSTANDING!!!In my better years, I traveled the Yucatan peninsula twice... Never had a taco like this.In my fatter years, I traveled the taco trucks of the south... Never had a taco like this.Thank you to the entire staff!!! You helped me find food, comfort and love in many ways!!(Did I mention how happily stuffed I am?)Any taco lover like myself..THISTHIS IS THE ONLY TACO OPTION PERIOD!!(Despite being so full, I am man enough to admit that I licked my plate after I finished)*I can't wait until my next payday (unless someone is inviting) ?... I want to try the entire menu!!

The food was fresh and the service was good.. I ordered 3 chicken tacos $8 and some change (great price) but the chicken was pulled/shredded and not grilled like I expected… The meat itself had no flavor. Maybe I ordered wrong? I asked for 3 chicken tacos. Maybe I should have said grilled? The tortillas and other ingredients were all fresh. Overall not horrible but not what I wanted.
Not highly recommended
