Super friendly, fast, fresh. Burritos are hefty, well worth the 10.50 price point! Don’t shy away from the lengua (tongue), it’s was cooked beautifully. 16 oz coke in the glass was the perfect drink to share on a sunny afternoon! We can’t wait to come back and try the tacos.

I have been a loyal customer to Alex’s Taco truck for about two years now. Its definitely a comfort food for me and makes me happy every time. This is the go to spot when we can decide what to eat and it never lets us down. I usually get a lengua taco, chorizo taco, and al pastor taco. With a nice big glass of horchata (which is the best around, I haven’t had better anywhere) and extra limes. The owners is really nice and the people that work there are amazing, I couldn’t be happier. I genuinely love this place and Im going back today for more!

Their burritos are delicious. 11 may seem like a lot to pay, but wait until you see the finished product. Huge portion!

I live 30 minutes away from this place and I will gladly drive every single time. Their birria tacos are AMAZING, I've also tried "tortas." They have steak, al pastor, and the list go on for tortas. My favorite food truck ever!

Been here a few times now and will definitely be making the trip to come back. Hidden in a little auto parking lot, you might miss it if you don't take a little extra time to look. The food is traditional and tastes fantastic. The burrito is so huge, bigger than Chipotle. My husband and I split it and we were still so full. The quesadilla is stuffed and fat with meat and cheese and they also have the option to get it with extra fixings. All of the taco options, especially the al pastor and the steak are perfectly spiced and cooked. Some of the drinks are only slightly overpriced, but that doesn't take away from the convenience of having it with your meal. Especially if you choose a more traditional drink for your experience. Overall, no other place can compare and we aren't going to be buying our tacos elsewhere for a while.

Fantastic little surprise for our family as we were in the area from out of town. We’re always looking for something special in these moments and Alex’s Tacos was phenomenal. We tried, literally, every taco they had between the six of us and my personal favorite was the beef tongue - so tender and flavorful! We had the green sauce with each taco and it was the perfect match; flavorful with some nice spice. Alex and his staff were super nice and I don’t think this place is a secret anymore after seeing their success from this food truck has claimed some awards in the area over the last ten years. Highly recommend!
