Pollos y Carne Asadas El Norteno offers some of the most delicious Mexican food truck food in Houston. Their marinated meats and spicy green salsa are magnificent. The fajitas are a must-try and worth the drive. The BBQ plate is perfect for a family of 4, with great fajitas, sausage, and chicken. The food truck serves a whole roasted chicken that comes already cut up with beans, onion, jalapeño, and corn tortillas, which many customers say is the best roasted chicken ever. Since it’s a food truck, there’s no place to sit, and parking can be limited at a small lot next to a gas station. Customers often wait 15 to 20 minutes, sometimes up to 45 minutes, but many agree it’s worth the wait. The service is fast, and the staff are friendly and accommodating. While some find the horchata watered down, the green avocado salsa and frijoles charros with bacon are highly recommended. Overall, this spot is a must-visit if you're in the area!
