“Los Tacos de mi abuela is a taco stand located on US 441, next to the old Hollander's Hydraulics building. The stand has been operating in the parking lot for a month and offers a variety of meals such as tacos, burritos, quesadillas, tortas, and tostadas. The menu has a selection of meats for the tacos, which are priced at 4 for $12. A reviewer chose lengua and birria meats, noting that the lengua was cut small and chewy, while the birria tasted more like barbacoa and was good. The stand uses small, soft corn tortillas for the tacos. The burrito was found to be a better value for the price, and the staff was described as friendly and efficient. The stand also offers fried potatoes as a side, which were noted as fresh and delicious, with three different sauces. The stand has its own porta-potty and easy access from both sides of the road. Currently, it is a grab-and-go place with no seating, but it may add seating as it becomes more established. The stand is recommended for its authentic and flavorful tacos, and the reviewer plans to return.“
