Taco Chile in Sunoco at Hufsmith and Kuykendahl

This station has rebranded and is now a Sunoco.  The food offering is now called Taco Chile.  I stopped in to see what's different.

It is in fact different from Laredo Taco Company.  But pretty much a step back.  They still warm the tortillas fresh on the grill and they have a nice char on them.  I got barbacoa and alhambre (sausage).  The tacos were OK, the beans were OK, the rice had not much flavor.  One thing that did stand out was the salsa--the red salsa is flaming hot, I could only handle a few drops on my tacos, so if you are wanting really hot salsa it could be worth it.

The taco business is separate from the gas station.  You pay for the food at the food counter, and drinks and anything else at the register.  The station is not kept up as well as the Stripes was.  The bathrooms were not real clean and out of towels, and one of the drink machines was out of ice.  Not terrible but you can do better.
