After a year of living in Boise, finally found a place with consistently great Mexican food. Have been here about three different times, tried the gordita, tacos (chicken, chicharrón, carnitas, buche and adobada), and the quesadilla. Highly recommend, fast and friendly service. This may sound weird but I appreciate the fact that they don't deliver but you can call ahead. Everything tasted hand made and fresh, salsas are not dumbed down. You will be hard pressed to find better mexican food in this area.

Amazing place to have tacos! The food truck is located outside of a house where they served the food. They have tables on the side that you can sit and enjoy your tacos. Overall, is a great place to have tacos with good service and food!

Pretty good tacos! The horchata was a little chalky but I really enjoyed the rice, tacos, and salsa. Liked the outdoor seating area as well.

Ownership is friendly and the food is great. Best lengua tacos around! We usually call ahead our order and it's usually about 15-20 min max for tacos and burrito.

While visiting Idaho, we stayed in Boise and McCall and came across a taco food truck on Yelp. It's a cash-only place with outdoor seating, and there's an Albertsons nearby if you need an ATM. We liked it so much we went twice. The owner is really nice. We tried different street tacos, and our favorites were the shrimp, fish, and tripa. We also had their hot batts, which were good, and they gave us Aqua de Jamaica (not on the menu), which we loved.
