El Tacorrido

The tacos are delicious. My husband is from LA and these are the most authentic tacos here in Austin. The verde sauce perfectly accents the tender, flavorful el pastor tacos, which are my favorite. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but definitely worth the trip.

not nearly as good as the el tacorrido on south first): wah completely different ingredients for a lot of their tacos

Well, another taco truck/​trailer. I saw it here the other day, but it was closed, so I think they must have just been in the process of opening (a new location). or moving (from a previous Location) maybe? Not sure.
While I waited on my order I looked at reviews for the locations. and the low stars were a little bothersome, especially from a few select Unilocalers I’ve come to like and respect (in the way of reviews). I was sure hoping I would have a better experience. for a couple reasons. I was hungry as hell and I don’t like having writing negative reviews for local joints, but the way I see it. If I write one way, I need to write both… So it saddens me when a local place falls short. Im happy this little trailer did not disappoint this morning!
Breakfast tacos $ 1.75 for 3 items and $.25 for additional items. can’t go wrong with that.
I ordered
Bean, Egg, and Cheese
Potato, Egg, and Cheese
and they came with green sauce and red sauce.
The tortilla… well, I could very much be wrong about this, but they sure tasted homemade. not store-​bought. And if they were, well, then I’d like to know where they came from, cause they were really good. Had a different flavor that reminded me of the tortillas a lady used to make for us when I was younger.
The potato was, thankfully, «al dente» if you will. and had a great flavor.
The egg was fried nicely, more of a fried texture, then a soft scramble, which was a nice change.
The beans also had a great flavor and were wholesome. not a pile of mush, yet cooked completely. The tacos were filled generously, IMO. no skimping there.
The sauce? Yikes. both of them had WONDERFUL flavors, but they were both too spicy for me. I really loved the flavor of the green sauce (avocado sauce) but could not handle the heat it packed.
The service was spot on, Friendly. With a smile. Not a lot of chitter chatter (language thing, Im sure. no problem though) Had no troubles ordering, or knowing she needed quarters as she was apparently running low. and it just happened that I had about $ 10 worth in my bag that were left over from the kids at the festival. So we traded… helped us both out. I lightened my load and she has change now!
Are they best? Probably not.
Are they pretty good? Yes
Service good? Yes
Full of flavor? Yes
Timely Service? Yes
Will I go back? Oh yeah… absolutely.
