Don’t know if this is the right place to post this review but google really needs to work on keeping business hours up to date, drove to the this place for hour just to find out that this was closed for a week.

My first time here but I will definitely be back. I have lived in this area for a few years and keep passing by saying "one day I'll try their tacos". Finally, today was the day and I sure wish I would have tried this place sooner.

Since moving to Texas from Southern Cal, I haven't found many places that have what I would call authentic tacos. I keep trying hoping to find that place and I just might have. They are located in a small food truck court off 71. Easy parking and they have plenty of outdoor seating if you want to enjoy your tacos fresh.

I only ordered "street tacos" with Adobada; I didn't have to wait long and I did take them to-go since I don't live very far. When I got home, they were still fresh and warm. They were prepared in fresh corn tortillas (they do also offer flour) and there is quite a bit of meat. They came with lime wedges and some red & green sauce. Given my experience with other taco locations, I wasn't expecting much. But my first bite... I was surprised at how delicious they are. Most places I have been to, the meat tastes as though it has been warming in a metal bin for awhile and lacks freshness. But this meat was very fresh and delicious. Squeeze a little lime and add some of the green sauce and these tacos are epic!

I ordered three and thought for sure I would end up throwing one or two of them out. But after eating two of them, I saved the third for my daughter but was tempted to eat it too. If the tacos are this good... I am sure the rest of the food must be great. I have had tacos from a few places in downtown Austin that are good, but it's a far drive to get them regularly. It's nice to know the best tacos I have tried since coming to Texas is quite close to me. And between the tacos I have had in Austin and Ortega's, I would choose Ortega's any day.

Although they provided red sauce, if you like really spicy... use the green sauce. Like finding good tacos, it has been difficult to find good spicy taco sauce but their green sauce is going to make you sweat a little. Although I waited years to try, I'm glad I finally tried Ortega's and I will be back soon.

I thought tacos here were a little on the pricey side my first try but their portions were so generous that it was well worth it! Their steak fajita tacos with pico are delicious and very filling, definitely my favorite hi-protein option! 1 taco is plenty but you’ll want to eat more.

There are a lot of Mexican food trucks to choose from in the area and we have tried them all. This truck is the best. Their breakfast tacos are so tasty, filling and a good price. Their barbacoa tostados and burritos are amazing - the meat has so much flavor. And their homemade green salsa is so good I want to steal the bottle. I’ve also never eaten at a food truck that serves on colorful, ceramic plates - just adds to the experience. Lots of covered seating and the owner, Nelly, is a sweetheart and remembered our names after just one visit. Worth a stop!

My family has been going to Ortegas for years, and we wouldn't get tacos anywhere else! It is consistently delicious and fresh, and going there is always a pleasure.
