La traila Alvarez: Reviews & Ratings
I love food trucks! Homemade tortillas captions grabbed my attention. I missed breakfast so I needed something quick. I ordered a carne guisada and it was very good. Having grown up in San Antonio I'm very discerning when it comes to tacos. My taco was delicious...steak tender and flavorful, gravy was light and did not overpower the steak. The pico and cheese were added pluses! A nice a touch a foil wrapped lime.... The cashier was extremely friendly and helpful. There food truck did not have outside seating. I ate my taco in the car. The food truck was authentic and definitely worth trying. Loved the vibe... Definitely going back...I go by this area all the time,
I come here almost weekly and they are so fast and consistently delicious. All of their tacos are reasonably priced and immaculate! My favorite is their carnitas tacos on corn tortillas! Definitely come check them out if you're around !
2 bacon, egg, cheese, and potato tacos with salsa verde. They were pretty good, but not pretty great... I'd give them a B+, I had so much higher expectations from a food truck in front of a car wash. The eggs were a little bland, the salsa was a little bland. The tortillas were fantastic!
We eat here at least 4 times a week on Burnet Road. Thank goodness they are here or we would starve!! the tacos are always so fresh and OMG the quesadilla will fill you up for days!
This place will forever be my number 1 spot !!! It's always popping but not to busy and they are fast if you can understand fresh food takes time to cook. I've come work on my lunch break with time to spare even on busy days. I'm a native Texan but I work with a lot of Californians that love the Trojan breakfast burritos as do I. Their beans and rice are good too and the agua frescas are delicious and refreshing. Customer service is always great. It is parked at a car wash so the ambiance isn't there but I always take mine to go or eat in my car. They do have 2 picnic tables if you decide to eat there. Parking is limited but across big shopping center so you can park there and walk over. I love this place so much I wait for payday and my days off to come here first and enjoy some good food before starting my day. The only thing is the are open morning-3pm and closed Sunday but that's okay I want them to have all the time of rest if it means always having good quality food but I just crave it all the time! Best TACOS AND BURRITOS IN NORTH AUSTIN!!!!
If you're trying to find a good Mexican food truck, this is the one. Very polite and food was really good and cooked fresh. Highly recommend stopping here for breakfast/ lunch. Breakfast tacos are served all day too which is a bonus. Please support this business. Hours are 7am-3pm.
It is so rare to find good Authentic Mexican taco trucks in Austin, tx. And oh my oh my those tacos were one of the best and most tastiest ever the salsa 10/10
I moved to Austin from San Antonio about 6 months ago and one of my biggest struggles has been finding a decent breakfast taco. Coming from a city where you can find homemade tortillas and tacos stuffed fat on almost every corner, Austin has been pretty disappointing - until now. This place is THE SPOT. I can't speak for the lunch options but the two breakfast tacos I got (the flaco and the anderson) were some of the best I've ever had! The tortillas are homemade and delicious, the eggs were cooked perfectly (not dry at all) and the fillings were cooked great and tasted fresh. So happy to have stumbled upon this place!
