I ordered the chicken, fish, and nopal (cactus) tacos and was very satisfied! The chicken was seasoned very well, the fish was fresh-tasting, and the nopal was so delish- give it a try! Will definitely come back. I also stopped in the outdoor consignment shop right by while I was waiting, and I found a nice jacket for a great price 🙂

While working out of town, I stopped by this little food truck and it didn’t disappoint for sure! I ordered the Asada fries, and they were very good! They sit on a layer of white queso, then the fries, followed by shredded cheese, asada meat, then topped with pico, guacamole, jalapeños and sour cream. They did have a little shaded sitting area which was a plus. It was pretty busy so I’m sure they have a lot of repeat customers. Update: I keep coming back for their Carne Asada tacos.

Incredible flavors. Nice outside space. We had the Mexican burrito, the veggie burrito and the cubano sandwich.

I just needed a little something and gave this food truck a try. I had a plate of 3 excellent carne asada street tacos with ample sauce, lime and a roasted jalapeño popper!
Prices very reasonable. I will definitely be stopping by again to try other menu items. Service with a smile too.
A convenient stop if your are shopping for used sporting equipment too. On the same lot.
They do have a nice, covered shady little sit down area with multiple tables. That’s not the norm with food trucks.

Best Mexican food I’ve had in Colorado. Great tacos and tamales. I knew it was going to be good when the kid that greeted me at the window was nice and I smelled what was cooking. The prices are more than fare too. It’s hard to find a place with good prices and good food and most of all good service anywhere around here.

I’m by no means an expert on Hispanic cuisine, but it was delicious, the service was kind a quick, would recommend

Delicious street style tacos and guacamole. Tacos made to order fresh with cilantro and onions (remove if preferred). Friendly service. Best tacos I have had in Salida.

The very best no-frills street tacos in any mountain town in Colorado. Tip: If the food truck is closed, order online to pick up at their brick & mortar restaurant in downtown Salida. Then, bring your take-out to the riverside park for a picnic!
I used to live in Austin TX (taco heaven) and I’ve also tried tacos in Arizona, New Mexico, and even a non-touristy spot in Mexico City. This place ranks among the very best of taco trucks/shops I’ve tried.
Their Al pastor is really good! But I lean more towards a pescatarian/vegetarian diet these days due to some health issues.
The fish tacos are GRILLED (not battered!), it is rare to find a semi-healthy fish taco in Colorado!
Try the Nopales tacos! Literally the only place in Colorado I’ve found that serves cactus tacos, and they are addictive!
I’ve also tried the white queso and it’s up there with the best quesos. It may only be available at the brick & mortar location though — I can’t quite remember.
Be aware that it’s often one guy cooking/taking orders at the truck— if there’s a line you will need to be patient and let him work his magic. If you want full service I recommend sitting down at the downtown location.
Another tip: While you’re waiting for your order, spend a few minutes inside the outdoor gear/clothing consignment shop occupying the Pizza Hut building next door to this truck. I’ve found some treasures on outdoor gear while waiting on my tacos.

The best tacos around! I also really love their fajita bowl (it’s generously sized and so delicious) and their carnitas!
