Tortillas Hechos a Manos

You would not expect much from this strip mall hole in the wall, but it’s a gem. They sell fresh tortillas and bread as well as large assortment of drinks and waters. The best part though is that they have a whole menu and a few clustered tables that can be found filled with Mexican workers around lunch time. A testament to it being good and cheap food. Their fajitas are delicious. Seasoned with a tangy adobo that I can’t pin point, but thoroughly enjoy. They sell all of their meats on dishes in tacos, burritos (just large flour tacos at this location), and gorditas. My favorite is that they also sell everything by the pound and their sides in various sizes too. You can take a whole Mexican meal with fresh tortillas home and all you have to is lay it out and enjoy. Perfect for home style take out that might be cheaper than the fast food joints. It will definitely be way way better. The food isn’t brought out super fast outside of lunch, but that only means they put time into getting it out to you. Give them a try.

It might seem a little shady sitting on the side of N. Lamar, just ½ mile shy of the infamous Rundberg intersection — BUT don’t let that stop you from enjoying some legit Mexican tacos. Forget those über-​trendy food trucks that charge $ 3+ for a taco, this place is the real deal! Tripas, lenguas, chicharrones, oh my!
This taco truck is parked in the parking lot of a shopping center that has various types of shops (tortilleria, money cashing, etc.). I’ve never seen it move — so I assume it’s called this place home for quite awhile. The truck has a tented seating area where you can enjoy all the delicious goodies.
Tacos are less than $ 2 and they are adorned with cilantro, onion, and a lime wedge — that’s how you dress a real taco! The corn tortillas are homemade and just the right thickness. The carnitas is flavorful and full of crispy bits. The barbacoa is not the best I’ve had, but I’m not complaining.
They also have tortas, gorditas, sopes, and refreshing aguas frescas (big azz cup for $ 2.50!) to wash everything down.
They also have two salsas: a spicy red sauce and a cilantro/​avocado cream. Both do the tacos justice.
