This is the latest food truck to occupy the space between Falvel and Roseville on Spring Stuebner. Stopped in the other day and picked up 3 tacos (beef, chicken, al pastor) and 3 pupusas (pork, beef and loroco). Added an elote (cup of corn) and a jamaica agua fresca.
The tacos are the type where the meats are well done and chewy, but cut small so that's not a problem. They were all nice and tasty, with cilantro and onion. They came with two salsa, an orange salsa that was seriously spicy and a milder green one. The tortillas were fresh and tender. Good representations.The pupusas were also fresh and tender. One minor hiccup--instead of the pork and cheese pupusa, we got one with just cheese. They were nice and savory, easy to eat. They came with an orange sauce that was in between the salsas on spice level and complemented the pupusas well. The loroco pupusa is a unique item. Loroco is a central american flower bud with a mildly bitter and nutty flavor. The pupusa had a nice texture and good flavor, and it was interesting to try something new.
The elote was a classic preparation and a generous serving. The agua fresca was particularly good--nice and strong jamaica. Overall it's a good choice. Their competition is tough--Taqueria El Rancho up the road is also a nice place with a tree-shaded eating area and a broad menu. La Zona has a broad menu as well--lots of different Mexican snacks, along with hot dogs and burgers. Not a cheap place--the elote was $8. But there's a nice seating area. Worth a stop.
