Tacos Y Tortas El Pastorsito DF

An authentic taco/​food truck tucked away in the Medical Center, in between the Health and Human Services building and a Springhill Marriott. Kind of an odd location, but they do seem to get a decent amount of business. Most of the people in line when I went here worked nearby in the public health department building. If you’re driving here, there’s no parking and it’s hard to find so go in from the Springhill Marriott and it’s right beside the parking lot.
Tacos are mostly all $ 1.50, on double backed corn or flour, with the exception of a few (lengua is $ 2). They accept credit card if you order at least $ 5. I got the pastor, fajita, and lengua tacos. They’re not particularly clear about it but be sure to ask for onions/​cilantro on your tacos as well. You can also get other toppings like avocado, for 50 cents.
Tortillas are pretty average but I recommend the corn, as both the corn and flour tortillas taste about the same anyway.
All the meats I got were quite good. Definitely authentic street tacos. However, I found that they were a bit dry, missing that last bit of flavor. The fajita especially. So I thought the pastor was the best, followed by the lengua, and these are what I’d recommend.
If there weren’t so many excellent taco trucks and taquerias around in Houston, I’d rank this place quite high. Nowhere near Tierra Caliente or Taconazo, but also not too far behind Tacos La Bala and 100% Taquito. And within the Medical Center? You’re not gonna get any better than this.
If you find yourself deciding between the Chipotle, Freebirds, or Taco Cabana nearby, STOP. Drive down Old Spanish Trail and make a right at the SpringHill Marriott for some actual Mexican food that’ll blow those places away.

I work at the building next door, so this truck is very convenient for me. I get food here once a week, and I have never been disappointed. I would not go out of my way to this truck — I only go here out of convenience. The lady who works here is very nice. Get the green sauce to add some spice to your food.

The food is delicious and I have nothing but good things to say about their burritos. If you like spicy food, you can even request them to put jalepeño pepper inside the burritos. Their service is friendly and doesn’t have a long wait before you get your food. Parking wise it is a little inconvenient but if you enter Marriott from OST, you can park right across from the food truck and simply walked over the lawn to order. Highly recommended!
