“It’s always bittersweet when you find an amazing restaurant while on a road trip. On one hand, you’re happy to have had the great experience, but on the other you’re sad because you don’t know when (if ever) you’ll be able to come back. I loved everything about our stop at Elwood’s Shack. The food was phenomenal, the service was great, and the locals were friendly. What an incredible place!“

“Excellent, fresh, delicious. Wieso is the best I’ve had anywhere, perfectly flavored and texture was creamy but not thick. Fried avocado taco was so unique and delicious, shrimp taco great, tilapia was so tender and well cooked, slow cooked beef was cooked to perfection. Churros were so good, with a creamy inside filling and light crunchy exterior. We will definitely visit again!Parking: Right off the Main St trolley lineKid-friendliness: Easy going and clean“

“I would’ve given it a five star rating since the food was really good. The area was clean and the service was good but the only thing that I didn’t like, was the fact that they only give you a 1 ounce salsa for three tacos. As a Mexican, that’s not enough. I paid extra $.50 per each additional salsa. I think that a mini salsa it’s enough for 3 tacos.“

“Nice place for lunch. Food and service were ok. Did not like the queso. The sauce on top was oddly sweet. Salsa was pretty average and not worth the price. Calamari and guacamole were good. Definitely recommend the hot honey shrimp. Enjoyed the lamb sliders the most. Fries were burnt.“

“I found this spot on Yelp. I called in my order and the lady who helped me was very friendly and helpful. When I arrived, my order was ready and she asked if I wanted salsa. She told me that one was really spicy and she gave me one that wasn't very spicy. I really appreciated her hospitality. The spicy salsa was my favorite. The tacos were cheesy and fresh. It came with 3 but I was full after 2. The portion size is perfect. I will definitely return.“

“THE BEST FOOD I've ever had!! Sitting in the covered outside area and eating the food as it came out sizzling was unbeatable! The prices are so affordable and I swear I can keep eating the tacos!! Must try items -Chicken tacos: filled with plenty of chicken and cheese, it was so juicy and flavorful! Usually pulled chicken is dry and not seasoned well in tacos but this places absolutely killed it!! Consume: HAVE TO get the consume tip dip literally everything in it. Add a little lemon to it and it's golden. So warm and had the perfect spice to add even more juiciness to the food. Quesadilla: cheesey goodness is all I have to say about this one. Got the shrimp in this one and god it was cooked soooo well! Got some hot sauce on the side along with the consume and we kept ordering so many haha.“

“I stopped by this place when I took my car for the regular oil change and servicing to Subaru. It’s a taco truck and they sell a lot of other Mexican delicacies too. The taco was good. I ordered a steak, an asada, and a chorizo taco, and I paid 7.5$. It was the weekend and the place was not much crowded. The service was fast and the food was served hot and fresh. The taco was tasty and spicy, although the salsa was just fine. The biggest problem is that IT’S A CASH ONLY place!“

“My favorite taco truck in Memphis (and yes, I have had Tacos Nganas.) The food is consistently delicious and authentic and the prices are good. It’s not far from U of M if you’re on campus and craving tacos. If you call ahead, it’s almost always ready by the time you get there, and still fresh. I highly recommend the sopes but the tacos are great too.“

“Best taco truck! Everything was made fresh, the flavors are authentic. I've been searching for two years for something close to the taco trucks back home in CA and I finally find one. My husband and I have tried their burritos, tacos, and tortas, basically can't go wrong with anything. The carne asada is tender and their Al pastor is full of flavor. I can't wait to explore more of the menu!“

“We went to the Perkins location by American Way and as always it was delicious!!! Only thing was we ordered 10 specialty barbacoa tacos & 2 street barbacoa and cheese only tacos and we were charged the specialty price and my daughter had to pick out the onions and some of the cilantro. Other than that it was great like always and even got my mom to finally try them and she said she should have ordered a few more ?Kid-friendliness: All locations have cornhole for everyone to enjoy“
