    Un sábado por la noche mientras tambaleaba a casa... me encontre esta taqueria que aun estaba abierta... te lo juro que nunca encontraras una taqueria tal como esta. tal vez porque eran las 2AM o tal vez porque me vendían el taco a $1... pero esos tacos fueron la mejor parte de mi noche. enrealida que bendicion encontrar este lugar. On a Saturday night as I stumbled my way home... I found this taqueria that was still open... I swear you will never find another taqueria like this one. perhaps because it was past 2 am or that the tacos are $1 but I am convinced that they were the best part of my night. it indeed was a blessing to have found this place

    Not to be confused with the Taqueria La Unicorn, which is, well, unique and corny. This is a lovely little taco shop located in a pretty shady area but not far from Chinatown. However if you want to change up your speed and have some amazing authentic Mexican food, then you have lots of options around here, such as La Bala, and several taco trucks as well. Including this one, which is one of the better ones. That's why there's usually a line and even sometimes a wait time but it's well worth it. And all the meats we've tried here have been greasy, juicy, and excellent.

    These tacos are grease, but I guess that's what makes them SO GOOD!!! They moved from Beechnut & Wilcrest but I hope to find them again!

    Bombest taco truck in alief. Tacos are $1 flat they have no idea of taxes. Crispy tacos, amazing green sauce and complimentary charro beans is something to stop for.

    I drive by all time , and see crazy lines. I am not a person who eats off taco trucks unless it's at a food truck park. But this place opens at night and the lines are crazy, constantly. I asked a few people I know and they raved about these tacos. So, one day my daughter wanted to try them, I let her go wait in line and just got 4 fajita chicken corn tacos. Yes they are small, but to my surprise they are really good. I stopped by the beechnut @wilcrest in the Citgo parking space they are small tacos for $1 mostly. Yes the area is not the best, but the lighting is bright plenty of cars are getting gas - so your not alone.
