El Tacontento

OK so let me just start by saying that I literally drive 20 miles just to eat at tacontento.
My boyfriend (alberto)is very very picky with he’s food and I would never thought he would give a food truck a try, but he did and let me tell you guys that he is addicted!!! since we live soooo far from this food truck we go once a week and every single time the food has been amazing.
The guy in the register is super nice, the ladies cooking look very clean and have the passion to serve the best of the best.
Do I recommend this location? Oh absolutely! They have so many choices of meals and meats to accommodate anyone’s appetite.
Keep up the great work/​food tacontento! :)

Absolutely love this place. I have always been sketchy about food trucks/​stands. But this one takes it. Their meat is always well seasoned. The taco trucks I have tried have either been too salty or too dry. This taco stand is my favorite by far. And what better than to have home made tortillas! I am a regular customer and have never been disappointed in their food. They are very nice ppl and will always make sure our order is correct. I also like that we can add our own topping. They always have a «help yourself» refried beans pot as well. Definitely recommend to any taco lover out there

Had tacos and a Buritto hear last night I must say bomb. I had pastor and a chicken burrito nice size had made tortillas. I went out of my comfort zone to try tripes it was so good I’m going to get some more tonight.

The price is great, the customer service better, and the tacos OUT OF THIS WORLD! Handmade tortilla, and a tasty flavored asada. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants their taste buds to thank them.

They Do accept Credit Cards and Debit!
Would be 5 stars but $$$. 6/​main item ie burrito, quesadilla, each dish etc.

I have to say that this place is the best in LAS VEGAS… F@#$ Tacos El Gordo and PEPEs tacos… Plus the customer service is a big plus here. I am from San Francisco and it has been hard finding a good taqueria. Hands down on this place. The tacos are made with hand made tortillas. I totally recommend this place. We go once a week. The owner and his wife are so sweet and remember their customers names. Great place to get a fast service. Their champurrado is awesome.

Yum! So glad I checked Unilocal (yet again) when deciding where to eat tonight. I’ve seen this taco truck several times on my way home but am always sketchy about which ones are good since there are so many! The photos on the reviews were awesome and I saw that I could call to place a to-​go order. The woman who answered spoke very clear english and explained to me what a Huaraches was. I’m glad I decided to try it. SOOO tasty! I got the carne asada one and a carne asada taco. Everything was very fresh and delish. I can’t wait for the bf to get back in town to take him there. They’re going to be getting a lot of to go orders from me! :)

Best tacos and burritos period. I go here all the time this is the first food truck i have ever been to and i can say i was not disappointed very nice people work here im a loyal customer now.

Drove by one night to try their tacos and we also shared a Huarache. The Lengua and Al Pastor Taco were good, but the Birria on the Huarache was very tender. Try them out if you’re in the area!

I went here not expecting much and got a lot more than I bargained for you can tell they use good quality meat the service is great and the price is excellent I would definitely recommend people here best taco stand in town

The first time we drove by El Taconento was on a Sunday evening and we were bummed to find out that they were closed. On our street taco scramble this past weekend, they were opened, and they had a small group of people waiting for their orders which was also a good sign.
Run by a husband and wife team (I think) they have a nice selection-​Tacos, Tortas, Quesadillas, Burritos and something no other vendor offers, Huaraches (Slippers).
They also offer six types of meat selections-​Asada, Lengua, Cabeza, Pollo, Al Pastor (He has an Al Pastor Carousel inside) and Birria, another thing no other vendor offers.
Traditionally made with goat, Tacontento’s version is beef, kinda sorta like picadillo (if you had Café Rio’s Chile Roasted Beef, it is very similar to that)
So we shared a Taco de Al Pastor, Taco de Lengua,($ 1.50/each) and a Huarache de Birria ($ 5) The al pastor had very good flavor with nicely charred bits, and the lengua was oh-​so-​soft and tenderlicious! There’s nothing like a fresh handmade tortilla, and this is the only way tacos are made here .
The Huarache is a ¼-​inch thick by 10-​inch oval of masa that is griddled to perfection
topped with beans, meat of your choice, shredded lettuce, crema Mexicana, and Cotija cheese. Just as good as the ones I’ve had in the streets of Cancun, and much tastier than the huaraches served at Los Antojos. Wait times vary, depending on how busy they are, but if you are patient, the food served up here is definitely worth the wait. easily becoming one of my favorite street vendors… ALOHA!!!

Good, friendly service is not something I’ve come to expect from a taco truck, but El Tacontento delivers service with a smile almost as big as the grinning, sombrero-​wearing taco painted on the truck. I drive past this newer taco cart on my way to work, and one thing convinced me that I had to try it: the name! This stand in the parking lot of a tire shop across from Fiesta Rancho and the Westwind Drive-​In Theater recently replaced another mobile vendor with not-​so-​memorable tacos and a name I can’t remember.
I requested a veggie burrito and was offered pinto beans, rice, cheese, lettuce, salsa, and crema inside a large flour tortilla. The rice was well seasoned and the Mexican-​style sour cream made it even more delicious. I’ll be back for this burrito for sure. My husband ordered a taco de birria and proclaimed it very tasty for his first time ever sampling birria. He was given a choice of corn tortilla: regular or fresh. Of course, he opted for the freshly pressed and griddled masa. Our total? $ 5. They offer bottled beverages, but I’d definitely like to see some horchata or other aguas.
The man and woman who took our order and prepared our food were so friendly and helpful that we will certainly return for mas tacos y burritos. Gracias and cuatro estrellas for El Happy Taco!
