This place is hands down the best taco spot in San Antonio. Everything on the menu is great. I recommend the queso birria tacos plate.

This place is amazing! I got the mini tacos and a volcano, each with chicken. The customer service was great, and I loved both items that I got :)

Definitely not what they used to be. The last three times we had tacos from here were a bit disappointing, and we kept trying to keep supporting local businesses, but today was worse, the cilantro and limes were old, the meat was undercooked and tasted old as well, I know you were probably trying to save some meat but being a Friday night you, would expect better quality. We didn’t finish the tacos and ended up throwing them away. We’ll try the other trucks near by next time.

I'm a native San Antonian, and a tex-mex foodie. I will confidently say that the quesabirilla tacos, the al pastor, and the chicken tingas tacos are the BEST I have had in all of San Antonio. The customer service of this family owned Taco Truck is amazing - everyone is nice and very personable. If you haven't tried the tacos from this specific taco truck - you are greatly missing out.Thank you to the family that owns and operates El Pastorcito Taco Truck, my family and I greatly appreciate you all showing up to serve our community each day. Hope you're here to stay! <3Dietary restrictions: I often will get a Chicken Tinga salad - because I am trying to consume less carbs. They are more than generous with their large salads, that offer plenty of flavor - while allowing me to stay on my diet.

Love this place! They do a great job in their cooking! The hot sauce will burn a hole in your gut so beware before you have it! The Tortas are my fave but everything is good.

Food trucks tacos have been eating pretty good lately in Yelp... so I've ordered those Al pastors, asada and beef tongue tacos!! Delicious and tast good especially Al pastor with some pineapple sliced plus salsa sauces!!! Quick and cheap!! Very good convenient foods and tasty than other fast foods chain!!

Amazing and affordable taco! Beef tongue and tripe is a must try! So delicious. And it's only about $2 for each taco. Very cheap!

06/08/2023Came here a few hours ago with my man's bc we left hungry elsewhere and the taco truck we were looking for isn't open today.He got 3 pastor tacos and I got 1 asada and 1 Al pastor, I have got to say they pack the SHT out of the tacos and the pastor is in one of those meat sticks with the pineapples (IYKYK)...ugh I'm a s***** for them!!!Their tacos is flour based I believe and I think they're fresh made bc it is sooooo soft and the right thickness for all the meat and onions they put on top (without it tearing)! The Al pastor has such perfect seasoning and the pineapple was so sweet! I'm not sure if anyone else feels the same but I always notice if a spot has really good pastor the asada is like super dry or flavorless?! Not here, their asada was soft, juicy, and flavorful! I definitely want to come back to try other items they have like the gringas or the sincronizada..? They even have the LA dirty dog here as well lol which I crave from time to time!The condiments: we only tried the avocado salsa I wished they had the verde salsa with the tomatillos lol but anyways all their condiment line is very neatly placed which I appreciate! They have a wholeParking lot to utilize that is nicely lit as well.Even the packaging is very neat and idk I think we might have a new go to spot! Thanks for reading this review I'm sorry it's so long! But everything was phenomenal 10/10!
This little taco truck is f-ing lit! First of all they have a sincronizada, which is nearly impossible to find anywhere! If you don't know, let me but you on. A sincronizada is a quesadilla but with ham, yes it's simple but it tastes like home to me. The staff is so friendly and fun to chat with.They have such a good menu for anyone craving authentic Mexican street food, including LA hotdogs. The horchata is on point too and the salsas are spicy.Definitely hit them up if you can.

Tried this place because they had some food Yelp reviews. There were many people that came and ate in the parking lot like we did. I tried the brisket and al pastor tacos. They were so-so. Tasted basic. Their sauce was super spicy for us. I won't be coming back.

Great tacos! I will be back again. The tacos are $2-2.50 each and I am full from 4-5 of them. They are street taco size with two tortillas and full of juicy seasoned meat. My personal favorites were the cabeza and tripa. I like that the al pastor came with pineapple but didn't have the strong distinct marinade flavor. They have about 4 different salsas along with marinated cucumbers and a mix or onions/radish. There are supplies for you to take all this to go. It is all street parking but not super busy when I went around 4:45pm.

Some of the best brisket tacos i've had. I'd put this in my top 5 for tacos trucks. The meat was flavorful, seasoned well & made to perfection. The lengua was super thick, but still solid overall. The alPastor was good, but could have been more flavorful with smoky goodness. The cabeza was really well done too.

Ive tried many many taco trucks in the Arcadia/ Temple City area and this place is one of my favorites. Some highlights:Cabeza Nachos 10/10 - they don't skimp out on the ingredients and are generous with the cheese. You're always left with more toppings than chips which is rare. Cabeza Quesadilla 10/10 - so cheesy goodLengua (tongue) Taco 8/10 - I usually like lengua but they serve it as one piece here which kinda throws me off and I'm reminded of the tongue as I eat it. Wished they cut it up.
