“buenos tacos sobretodo los de 🐠🐟🐠“

“I’ve been driving past Taco Boom Truck for what feels like forever, always catching a whiff of grilled meat or seeing a small line of people and thinking, “One day I’ll stop.” Well, I finally did, and man, I should’ve done it way sooner.

It’s a simple setup, parked off the road, colorful, and always smelling amazing. People were hanging out, eating, and the service was quick and friendly. The guy at the window even gave me some salsa tips when I told him it was my first time.

I went with two carne asada tacos. No exaggeration, the meat was so tender and juicy, with this really nice char on the edges. You could taste the seasoning in every bite, nothing overpowering, just that good mix of garlic, citrus, and smoky flavor. The tortillas were warm, soft but sturdy enough to hold everything together (no taco explosions, which is always a win).

The green salsa? Wild. It started off kind of mild, then hit with this spicy, peppery kick that crept up in the best way. It had some creamy avocado vibes too, which made it super addictive. Honestly, I kept dipping even after I ran out of taco.

If you’re in the mood for solid tacos that hit all the right notes, Taco Boom is 100% worth the stop. I already know I’ll be back.“

“best fish tacos in town.. great service“

“love the burritos with pineapple and always the staff is super awsome.“

“Authentic Mexican food, very friendly, reasonable prices, and clean“

“We stopped today and this location after many times to form a nice review and tell you exactly how is in the end after the three visits with that we order a kale salad with the salad was fresh but all the condiments in the salad included shrimp that we ordered with shrimp it was all the way in the bottom and the top you don’t see anything except guess the kale in in the past and the last two visits before is salad coming with cranberries, and this time, it was no cranberries. We order three tacos the Carnitas they was pretty good the tacos but misrepresentative for Carnitas most like it is anti taco home version, and Cocinita pipil if we go for that description, there was very good tacos steak taco we order one and the menu say skirt steak. That meat was very tough flavorless most like it I can say is not a score steak it is another kind of meat, but the marinated and the tenderized can pass for a skirt steak for people don’t have the pallet to identify the kind of meat definitely I skipped the steak. Taco recommended the Carnitas and the salad. The only problem with the salad. It was a presentation was very skinny service was very slow and for some reason, I have that feeling like the people who work over there it is more like a they just wanted to throw it to you the food and don’t put attention and anything else. I think customer service is very poor and the situation atmosphere is OK music from the 80s no Mexican music I guess as go with the flow my point is you can come and give me the shot and think and you see what you like from that place but this is basis and 3B things I did to this location“

“La comida está deliciosaaaaa😍 quedé impresionada con los jugosos tacos y sobre todo la Quesabirria😍🤤“

“Friday's Dj Music, FOOD,“

“I ordered a torta de milanesa de res. It was delicious the bread was fresh and toasted. The meat was crispy and the veggies were fresh. I also had the horchata which was very tasty as well. I’d say generally the price was very good for the torta as well and I hope to come back soon.“

“really over priced. ordered viognier was delivered chardonnay, for a few glasses of wine and a.single order of guacamole with tax and tip it was $80! Hard pass.“

“Could be a little cleaner on the counter and table tops but it was lunch time busy. Had the Specials of the Day: Lomo Burrito ($9.99) and Carnitas Tacos ($2.99) and reg price Al Pastor Taco ($3.99). The chucks of carnitas need to be smaller, they were way too big for tacos. The quality of food though was consistently just as good as their other locations. The Al Pastor was especially tasty carved off the gyros like spit.“

“They are so kind and understanding and very sufficient

Parking: It’s a lot of parking there like in a little small mall no problem

Kid-friendliness: Yes, it is

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, they had it there“

“I’ve been going to the food truck on wabash, pretty frequently. It is my favorite taco spot in downtown, they’re very consistent with the flavoring and cooking of the meat. Very quick and friendly service each time, I always recommend it to my coworkers:)!“

“Insanely good, food made almost scarily fast, and reasonable prices, don't mistake it for a tourist trap just because it's next to the conservatory. Get a burrito with cilantro and onion if you're hungry in the area, you won't regret it.“

“Food was hot and ready. Ordered the taco dinner with cabeza tacos. And they were fantastic and fresh with cilantro and onions. Sauces they came with were also fresh and delicious, no weird taste like they have been in the fridge for too long.
Mexican rice was fresh and good. Beans were pretty decent although the cheese wasnt quite melted but i dont really care about that.
Hopefully if i am back this way i’ll stop and get some more tacos. Thanks!“

“I love this place. Yesterday was my first time, and I love how kind the workers, and how clean the place is. The servings are so generous, fresh, and low cost.

“Good quiet Taco place. Tortillas are handmade and big. The carne asada and al pastor meat is cooked perfect with a lil char on the asada. A cash only place but also takes zelle/quickpay. Not too busy but good place if you want a quick but delicious bite.“
