“Saw this on google maps and the reviews looked good and I wanted some Mexican food. My husband and I went and it’s a food truck on the side of an apartment complex, but don’t let looks deceive you, the food is amazing. The woman taking orders was nice and friendly; the menu is a little overwhelming and I ultimately decided to go with the Tacos Mexicanos. There are a few picnic tables with umbrellas, but it was raining so we waited in the car and our order was ready in less than ten minutes. We took it to go to a nearby brewery that allows outside food. The order was packed with napkins and utensils and as soon as I opened the bag I could smell the cilantro and it smelled amazing. I got three tacos with carnitas and a side of salsa and a couple lime wedges. The tacos were so delicious and flavorful. I’ll definitely be back for more!“

“DMV Taqueria food truck is highly recommended! It’s smart to call in your order as they’ve grown in popularity as the word’s gotten out. My neighbor loves their chicken quesadillas. My favorite is the shrimp quesadillas, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of the menu items. I understand the churros are a favorite too, though I’ve not personally tried them. The drive home is brutal. The food smells so amazing, I can’t park the car fast enough. 5⭐️“

“I’ve been coming to this taco truck for years now…and I hope and plan to keep doing so!

The food is fabulous and delicious, and the portions are quite generous. I’ve had many tacos and quesadillas from here, they’re excellent, but my regular now is a steak torta (best. sandwich. ever.). Usually my order lasts me two or more meals!

Can’t overstate how much I love this restaurant and appreciate the consistent, high quality food its owner cooks up. Check it out! This place IS my Chipotle! Better food, better portions, AND better prices! Thank you to the restaurant owner for maintaining this wonderful food fixture in our community!“

“We were going to a concert at Merriweather Post and it was pouring rain. We decided to stop for some food and ended up here by accident. The atmosphere is cozy and nice. The drinks are excellent and the food even better. We went back for our next concert.“

“Nice atmosphere. Music is nice and not too loud. Comfortable seating.

Food is amazingly good! I got a Classic Smashburger and was floored by the flavor. Just be sure to use napkins The fries are fantastic and normally I hate waffle fries but these were some of the best fries I've had in a while. The sauces that came with it were great.

My father got some peri peri chicken (hot) and that was also delicious. No one at the table had anything bad to say about the food.

Dude running the register was super nice and gave us tons of sauces for free. He was very attentive to us and personable.“

“We love this food truck! Been coming for years and my favorite is still the mixed platter, which has a combo of beef and pork ribs, steak, and chicken, all over rice with beans and salsa on the side. I’m not sure if it’s listed on the menu anymore, but it is by far my favorite dish! Food tastes fresh and is cooked to perfection. The tortillas are wonderful- thick like ones you’d get in El Salvador- and the pupusas are on point. It has the flavor of real, home cooked food and I find that hard to come by in restaurants and food trucks. So delicious! No matter when I order, it never takes longer than 10 minutes and they now take credit cards, which is a plus. This is a hidden gem in Howard County. There are tables if you’d like to stay and eat, but the road noise is loud, so we most often carry out. If you haven’t been here yet, I highly recommend you give it a try!“

“A cool place to hang out and eat some delicious Tacos (the birria is my favorite) and drink some really great drinks (I love the margarita!). With the new tables that are lower, this place is even more accessible for everyone. Five stars!“
