“Thank for great food and service. ?“

“The food was really good. The salsa was ok so make sure to ask for their spicy salsa, muy bien! The food literally came out so fast I thought it was for another table so A+ for that. The Don Julio Marg was good enough that I ordered a second one. I really enjoyed the servers as they make you feel at home, which is always a plus when out at a restaurant. The only complaint is that someone forgot to sweep under my table and there was a whole tortilla and several ketchup packets under there (obviously someone with a child before me) and some other trash. I would definitely visit this place again when I’m in Altoona.

“My husband, daughter, granddaughter and I ate at Old West Friday November 1st. There was a waiting line when we arrived. Our wait time was approximately 15 minutes. There were 2 couples ahead of us, so I felt that was good considering the line and how busy the restaurant was. Fortunately, we saw a family friend we hadn't seen for awhile. We had a nice visit and met his daughter and wife while waiting, which made the time go by faster. Angel was our server. He was efficient, friendly and kind. Our food came in a timely manner. We started with the cheese dip, which is always good. My daughter and I had our favorite shredded beef chimichanga served with rice and beans. The food was hot and had just the right amount of seasoning, very good. My husband tried a new menu item the western burrito. He loved it and said it is his new favorite menu item. Thank you Angel for your service. We enjoyed our family night out and seen some familiar faces. Good conversation and our 5 month old granddaughter was very well behaved for her 1st family night out experience.😊“

“Best original tacos in town“

“Great Customer Service! NOT! I called in a order to go. A simple chicken quesadilla fajita. A side of rice. Also some queso dip. Paying over 20 dollars. Got home, there's only maybe 7 pieces of chicken in my large quesadilla. I called them. Told the lady I wasn't happy. Before I could say more. I was told "Not To Come Back" Then she hang up the phone up. Poor customer service. Shaking my head.“

“Love this taco truck.
They have the most authentic tacos ever, reminding me so much of SoCal, my home state. They do NOT put potatoes in your food! When I'm close enough to them in the area, they are the first place I hit for, SOFT CHICKEN STREET TACOS and they have the BEST *HOT* SAUCE EVER to go onto your tacos!“

“Best original tacos in town“

“Very impressive buffet. Quite a selection and most items are labeled. There were corn and flour tortillas, rices, enchiladas, tamales, flautas, taquitos, chicken, beef, pork, and veggie options as well as a bar full of sauces and toppings for the tortillas Wed and thurs are 2.99 margaritas all day. Resonably priced for lunch and dinner. Kid friendly dessert and and they are cut in small pieces so you can sample a lot but there’s also fresh fruit. Will be back“
