They have a taco truck in Sheboygan . They are the best because 1 the tacos are so good & better than most Mexican restaurants in Sheboygan. They also are open pretty late which is nice because my boyfriend doesn’t get out of work until 10:30-11:00 at night & they aren’t too expensive like other places ! We’ve gotten tacos from here on and off for a few months and i highly recommend them if you’re looking for some really good tacos !

New best taco truck in Sheboygan. (Not sure if they have multiple locations, or if they moved from Milwaukee, but this seems to be the only page available, so- ???) Service is good & fast. Everything is always fresh and delicious. Tacos al pastor are fabulous. A little bit different style than many other Mexican places in Milwaukee / Sheboygan, their pastor meat is sweeter and less greasy, with pieces of pineapple. Tacos are Mexican style with just meat, onion, and cilantro (though they always ask me, socially awkward gringa, if I want cilantro & onions, so if you don't like those, let them know). The corn tortillas magically do not break when you are eating them. Elote is just okay, didn't care for all the mayonnaise, but that's just a personal preference. The best part is when you get where you're going and open up your little bundle of tastiness. They don't just throw your food in a bag or styrofoam container... Most things are neatly packed up in a little square of aluminum foil. But wait! There's more! You also get some goodies... Not one but TWO delicious sauces, napkins, 1 lime per taco (neatly twisted up in a little wax paper), and a teeny little packet of salt. It's just fun to eat.

This is the taco truck formerly located on Lincoln Ave. Now located on Forest Home Ave. This place gets extremely busy after dark and that is one of the reasons we decided to try it out! We ordered carne asada (steak) with cilantro tacos along with tripe and a couple more carne asada. We asked for the tripe to be cooked extra crispy. It really makes a difference! I wish they had kept them in longer. The tacos were very pretty big, with plenty of meat. The quality of meat was good with no grisly bits and not overly greasy. If you have a spice tolerance the salsa is not very spicy and they don't give you much. Comes with half a buttered potato and a small bag of cut limes. Truck looked clean and the workers were friendly. Overall, for 7 tacos and a coke for $20, I would definitely try again.

Very good food for a taco truck in a small parking lot. Service was fast considering the meals offered. Always a good experience. And love the hours they are open. Hope that continues.
