El Carreton Del Trompo (Food Truck)

Best food truck in Houston.

The Barbacoa and Pastor were amazing, and the Charro beans were some of the best I've had from a food truck. They have covered picknick tables with fans which is very cool if you want to eat there and chill.

They have good food, but warning to non-hispanic people. They will over charge you and charge you 20$ for a burrito. We been going to them for years and I've always had my co-worker ordered the same burrito for me and it was always 8$ and it came with charro beans. Today costed me 20$ and no beans. I questioned red hair lady and she said I added jalapeños that's why its 20$. I didnt add any even if I did, shouldn't been 12$ for jalapeños.. she gave me back 4$ in change which still costed me 16$ for it. Got into the car, opened up my burrito and no jalapeños.. never again sorry, you lost a long time customer and all my co-workers from out company for scamming.

Food is extremely good, like super good especially their beans. The service is like a restaurant but outside, they bring the food right to you fresh and hot, the sauces are super good but are spicy too. The atmosphere is not the best due to noise and people, but I like how there is cover from the sun and tables to eat. The drinks are good too, being chilled. They play great music

I have come here often because it is close and the food had been decent in the past. There are definitely much better taco trucks, but I will never come back to this place again! I just spent $80 for tacos for three people and they wanted to charge me more money the minute I asked for an extra salsa. One of the small salsas barely covers two tacos. This plate is 6 small tacos for one person. They just lost my business after being across the street for 14 years. When people get greedy it can all go downhill.

Sometimes the ladies in there are not very nice well actually just one lady she doesn’t smile or anything. When the men work there always super kind and they smile and greet you.. two of the ladies just look at you as if you are bothering them . Their food is the best. Their tacos are the best and the burritos are way too oily. I could have fried a whole chicken and all of the oil that was on that burrito.

Great Tacos 🌮

Had a fellow co-worker bring back some food. She says service is always great and the food is awesome!.Ordered a torta bistec and two quesadillas de lengua. Also came with frijoles and fire salssita. Food was really good and will definitely be headed back to try more stuff.

$12 for about 4 tacos is about as good as a deal you could hope for. Combine that with barbacoa tacos that melt in your mouth and are packed with flavor and it’s an easy win in my book.

Got here just after 10pm and the place was still bustling! The owner was very gracious, he answered all my questions, food came out fast & hot, and man was it DELICIOUS!

Had both the steak tacos with avocado and the birria tacos!

The charro beans were outstanding! Made with jalapeños, delicious but expect a nice kick!

To drink I had the Jamaica agua fresca and I couldn't be happier with my dinner tonight!

Highly recommend it! 👍

Not gonna lie had high hopes of this. Had ordered food granted it wasn’t busy but everything was ready within 3 minutes which I found pleasant yet odd at the same time.. while the food was hot (tortillas pretty much) and meat seemed to be kept warm, all I tasted was heavy minced garlic.. the tacos and the burritos lacked flavor all around.. the price wasn’t bad I got a burrito and a taco (they were small) for 12$ came with side of beans and two sauce cups but yeah.. for sure won’t come back here. I usually don’t do reviews wish I would’ve taken pictures of it (presentation wasn’t bad or anything) but just so you all can see it. But for sure don’t waste your time coming here unless you want to consume some food quickly for cheap. I’m new to this area so trying to find a good trick to frequent at. But they were super nice don’t get me wrong but the food honestly had no flavor whatsoever
