“This taco truck is located on 14th St in Arlington,Virginia, right off of Rt. 50 West. Not only are the tacos here delicious but the customer service is very good. The few times I drove by this food truck I noticed pretty decent customer lines which led me to believe this place sold delicious tacos. However on this day I was in luck because the truck did not have a line, on a Saturday evening. I could smell the grill as I crossed the street on my way to the truck. The ordering process was very easy and efficient. On this occasion I ordered Asada (beef) and Pastor (pork) tacos to-go. The tacos were full-flavor and delicious. Overall this was a good taco truck experience and one which I will try again when in the area. Give them a shot for your next taco experience.“

“Our new favorite taco spot, hands down. Came down to Gaithersburg to go to an unrelated shop which was unfortunately closed; a bit bummed, we looked around, and found this absolute gem.My SO says the SOB tacos remind her of a good, home cooked meal, and I found the chicken reuben to be just as excellent, juicy without being sloppy.My SO also said the margarita was as close to perfect as possible, and I thought the aviation tasted excellent as well.I’m really glad the other place we initially came to this area for was closed, else we may not have stumbled onto S&G. Great food, everyone was friendly. Bit of a drive for folks close to Baltimore (like us), but we’re going to start making it, because this place is THAT good.Parking: Parking on Main Street is competitive during busy hours, but it’s free, and you should be able to find parking within a block or so.“

“Great restaurant. Very casual and delicious food. Great variety of food. My husband and I enjoy the shrimp tacos, chicken quesadillas, guacamole, salads and drinks! So many other tempting items to try. Didn’t have room for Gifford ice cream. Looking forward to returning.“

“Great hole in the wall spot on the second floor. Food is delicious - not too oily so tacos don't get soggy. Great range of menu options. The steak, beef, chicken are halal.Dietary restrictions: The meat (chicken, beef) is halalParking: Strip mall with lots of spots to park“

“It's a small restaurant so the space is tight, but there are some outdoor seating options. The staff are super friendly, but service was a bit slow.Don't let that discourage you from visiting because the food is delicious. The lomo saltado had a deep flavored, almost adobo type sauce that's different from what I've had in Peru which was more centered on the beef flavor. Guacamole is freshly made and worth the add on.“

“Great halal place. Just a suggestion to put out the halal zabiha certificate somewhere it’s visible to your customer. We asked the cashier whether it’s halal. She said everything in the menu is halal. She also provided the owner’s name.Anyways, tacos were delicious. They were loaded with ingredients and flavor. Just wondering, why only soft tacos? Why not crunchy tacos also? Quesedillas was tasty. Churos were so yummy?. I enjoyed every bite of it. They were crunchy from outside and soft and creamy from inside. I highly recommend this place. I will be going there again and again.“

“Stumbled upon this place when trying to find some late lunch and was pleasantly surprised! We didn’t try the juices, but the tacos were so good and for pretty decent prices. It’s nice to sit outside when the weather is pleasant too. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Qué rico! ? This Mexican food is absolutely divine! The flavors are so vibrant and authentic, it's like a taste explosion in my mouth! The tortillas are perfectly handmade, the meats are tender and juicy, and the sauces are rich and bold. And the presentation? ¡Es una obra de arte! ? Every dish is a masterpiece, a feast for the eyes as much as the taste buds. I could eat here every day and never get tired of it. The service is also top-notch, friendly and attentive. ¡Viva la comida mexicana! ?? Five stars isn't enough, this place deserves a million! ?“

“The only problem is the stop light but that won't stop me from getting my chicken burrito! The burrito is huge!! It's delicious and affordable and quick. Would like to try others as well that I have seen on the menuParking: Not much parking around lunch and dinner time“

“Great authentic local taqueria that doesn't break the bank. Love their burritos, the original and California one. I'd chose it over Chipotle any day. The first time my coworkers and I went to dine in, we caw boxes of fresh avocados coming in. This is an authentic and great joint that uses fresh ingredients.“

“Visited for the first time this evening and loved it! Sat at the bar and talked with the really friendly and helpful waitstaff/bar tenders. There was music playing, but not nearly as loud as some of the other places, so it was very nice to sit and talk with the person I was with. The happy hour drink and food specials are great and go on until 7pm every day! Once our food arrived, we were completely sold. We got 4 different tacos and all were wonderful! Very full tacos with lots of flavor. All the meats were juicy and delicious and the pico and corn salsas were obviously fresh and full of color and flavor. We will definitely be back!!“

“Fui a Tacos el Pariente el fin de semana pasado y los tacos de birra estaban a otro nivel! El servicio fue excelente y la muchacha que me atendió fue muy atenta. Regresare pronto!

“You won’t be disappointed in the outcome of your food. Tacos and Tortas are top two items to orderTheir wings are better than the wing places out there.Salsas are mildly good.Inexpensive brunch options too.If they had a frequent punch card I would have completed a few by nowParking: The parking is always crowded so park in the not popular or obvious spots unless you want extra stress and pressure of holding up traffic and parking ?️ then you have been warned or go at off peak timings“

“I love this place. I will forget about it for a few weeks and then visit and remember how much I love it. The food is excellent, the drinks are good (Michelada is my go-to), and I've always had great service. My favorites- puffy blue chips with queso, Key West fish taco, fried Avocado taco, and the Puffy beef taco. All delicious though, can't go wrong.“

“Can't decide between tacos or pupusas? Get both! Elvira's is the spot. Service is quick and the food is authentic. The pupusas were hot and packed nicely, so they traveled well. Others in my party got a bunch of different tacos- carnitas, chicken and a few others and everyone loved them! Will definitely be back.“

“I found this place on accident through DoorDash and did a pick up while I was getting gas. And let me tell you… everything was DELICIOUS! The ladies in the truck were so nice. Food was served hot. The birria tacos were perfect. The tacos dorados were so good. If you are hungry don’t be afraid to double up and order a few things. Portions aren’t big but they are perfect to leave room to fry a few things. Prices are a little high for food truck food but everything was really good. I’ll be back.“

“The guy at the front went back and gave his mother the order and she made it. A place that has the Mama working in the back spells amazing and the food was excellent and pretty darn authentic. I have not seen any Mexican restaurants in the area with the true family preparation. Generally see the commercialized sell out of a business model. This is my place.“

“Best taco bamba in my opinion. Plenty of parking spots. Fast service. Food is goodVegetarian options: Depends on the menu, they have a coupleDietary restrictions: Ask the employee, they would be better helpParking: Open space parking lot, unique shopping center but enough parking spots if not the weekend or busy dayKid-friendliness: Clean and friendly environmentWheelchair accessibility: Not really accessible“

“Best pupusas ive had here in Md. Great quality. Pupusas came out hot! And fresh. Let me say ive been to various pupuserias like in wheaton, langley park but this one in my opinion topped them off. That said i can only say that for the pupusas. The burrito were ok since they went heavy on the rice.“

“Great place. Lively atmosphere. Happy-hour vibes. Taco alternatives. But slow bar service. And I'm not a fan of ordering drinks from the main cashier. If I'm only drinking, then food service should be separated from drinks. Just my opinion to help speed up customer wait times.“

“The service is great and the food is delicious, they prepare it to order so it can take some time especially since it can get busy at the new location they are in. It's just a typical street spot in a commercial area so not any exciting vibes but worth the affort.“

“Happy hour was packed and I thought I’d be waiting for a while for my drinks and food, but that was not the case. My beer came amazingly fast and my tacos were served soon afterwards and were delicious. I was just looking for a convenient place nearby my hotel, but it was so much more than I expected. I look forward to going again.“
