“I keep coming back so this is a review of three or more times!I tried- tortas with legua- tacos with al pastor, chorizo, and legua- Hawaiian tortas- churrosI would say all of them are really good with fast service and generous portions! I love the tortas the most, Hawaiian was a really interesting approach with plenty of things inside: hotdogs, fried egg, warm pineapple, all other things, it’s so big that it took me some time to finish it.I really like lengua as well, and I think it goes the best with their hot sauce (but on the side because it’s really spicy)And churros, can’t you see how huge and gorgeous the plate is? I feel guilty bc every time I came back I need to fight my desire to order more of it. Best churros I have ever had.“

Taqueria Azteca Mexican • $

“I have been here more than 20 times in last 3 years, food is usually so good that I always forget to take pictures.
After moving to Cary/ Apex few years ago from Raleigh, I thought I would miss all those excellent taco trucks in South Raleigh and North Raleigh. But this has filled the void in an excellent way!
The best birria tacos I have tasted in the triangle. Consomme is real good too. Alll the other tacos (barbacoa, steak) and burritos were great! And true to the sign of a great taqueria, the red salsa and the green salsa, both are top notch.

Prices are fair, I would not call them cheap eats. And yes sometimes in the past I had to do hand gestures to put my order in because I'm not a native Spanish speaker, just like another reviewer said, but it's all good and I never had any problems!!

I feel like I'm giving out a secret but this is an A+ taco truck.“

“My family loves this place. The staff are always happy and helpful. The food is fantastic. This is a true local gem and family owned. The owner and his entire family work here. I have been eating here for over a decade. The food is consistently good and the service is wonderful. Be sure to try the made in house hot sauces, you have to ask for them, but they are complimentary.“

“Went for the first time on Saturday March 6. I got a beef taco and my kids got the same. I also ordered a side of rice. The food took about 8 minutes to make. We opened up our taco and it looked delicious. There was a little lime in all our taco meals. The taste was amazing! The tortilla was authentic and delicious as well! The rice was the best I ever had! We will be back to try more tasty menu items!“
