This is the best street taco place I have been to in Houston and it's open 24 hours, so I will definitely be coming back again! My friend and I got the chicken and fajita tacos and they were delicious. The chicken was plain and dry compared to the fajita, so I would just recommend the fajita. The tacos also come with a side of beans, onions, and peppers, which were an excellent addition to eat with the tacos. Be prepared to pull out some Spanish whether it's from your brain or Google Translate because most of the workers will not know English. They understood my broken Spanish, so just knowing the key words regarding the ingredients will go a long way. They also only take payments in cash so bring some with you. Also, be careful with the sauce bags since I've had it explode on me while trying to get them on my tacos, but they do add an extra kick of spice to elevate the flavors overall. It is parked by a small gas station so parking may be difficult to find, but I did not have problems. The truck is not dirty or too loud either so it won't be a bother while waiting for your food. The food came out in a reasonable time since there were only about 3 people making all the orders.

Me and my family have Borrego probably like 1-2x/wk IT IS SOOOOO GOOD! Depending on the time you go though, you might have to wait a while to order and receive your food. That just goes to show how good it is though. Their food is worth any kind of waiting time. My family came from out of town and specifically requested to eat tacos from borrego because it's food they remember when they came to houston FIVE YEARS AGO!

Idk how hard it is to listen to a simple request when I make and order all I said please no onions because I'm highly allergic I bought 4 tacos no onions on my way to work I get to work about to eat them and guess what they are loaded with onions great now I don't have food for my 12hr shift I guess it's also my fault I should had checked them before I left but it's the last time I trust them with an order that's if I ever go back

This is my favorite taco truck in Houston. Even though this place is across town for me I find myself making the drive here often due to my intense cravings for their tacos. What makes their tacos so good is the tortillas. They're so buttery and soft; I end up finishing a taco within seconds. The salsa and beans are solid as well. Flour taco prices have risen to $2.75 each but I still think they're worth it! Be sure to bring cash!

One of my favorite taco trucks that opens 24 hours! It's near the UH campus and a very convenient location. Its parked right next to a gas station so there's room for parking. The truck itself isn't too dirty or loud. The lady was nice and welcoming, she repeated our order back to make sure she got everything correct. It only took around 5 minutes to receive our food. The tortilla was really crispy, the garnish wasn't too overpowering. The taco itself wasn't too greasy and the beef had all the right flavors and texture. The sauce we got with the taco also adds that extra kick. The beans were also really savory. I honestly can't think of a flaw this place has as I've been here 3 time already and will keep coming back! The price keeps rising by 25 cents as it used to be $2 now it is $2.75.

The first time I ate here I got a hamburger and it was delicious. It had avocado, bacon, ham, and one hamburger patty. It was the best and also had lettuce and tomato. Amazing will always recommend it. I went back a second time I brought a friend with me. We got a hamburger again and we got some tacos. Everybody in line so their tacos are the best. I would give their tacos four out of five stars. But that hamburger was still the best the second time having it reminded me just how good it was the first time.

Good tacos, but a little pricey for what you get. 3 tacos and an horrchata for 10.25 isn't exactly a good deal.
i've always ordered from here but one time i came to order some tacos for my family. when i went to the food truck to order i asked if they took apple pay they said no, so i placed my order and went to get cash at the nearest atm. the price they told me was 12$ when i come back, they charged me 20$. they changed the price when my order hasn't changed. literally went to get cash.

I went to this place on Sunday night on 10/16/2022 and the lady there was very rude. We ordered the tacos al pastor and the meat was like it was cooked with water and the taste was not there at all. I will never go to this place again. Frank Gonzalez

Solid four stars. Not the greatest. Not the worst but I would say very middle of the road. The people that work here are kind of rude and only speak Spanish lol. If you ask then a question it's kind of like asking them to perform open heart surgery. Unreal lol. Didn't know tacos were this hard Food: we got fajita a deshabrada which were pretty good. The price is 1.50 each so that's def a value. The flavor was lacking. Didn't taste lien they put much season. They kind of remind me of tacos Aracely in northside but i tacos Aracely is much better. The reason I give them four stars is because they are open late, the food is decent, the price is pretty cheap. I am sure there are much better options off edge Brook but I'm glad I checked this spot off my list. I would definitely go back. Oh and they are actually very quick!

Great tacos and great flavor! The only not so great part was the service. If you do not speak Spanish the lady taking orders will be very short and rude. It's not a language barrier because she spoke perfect English with one patron and refused with me. Mi dinero es verde chica!!!! Anyways.... I've been to this bus since it was green or blue and I know to always get the large quesadilla because that's just wassup. I ordered saudero meat and a large Jamaica agua fresca. The meat was very seasoned and flavorful. Be prepared for a "greasy" quesadillas with lots of juices. Not something dry at all. There is plenty of cheese and juices to make this some very delicious slop. It didn't take long to get the order and boy was that s*** hot af when I got it. I couldn't want to dig in so I sat in my car and busted this shorty down. Needless to say the only bad part of this experience was the interaction at the window. Everyone in Houston know dis the spot before and after the club. That and Del Sol. Food 10/10
