They at the corner of Arlington rd and University. Just had them, got 2 HUGE soft tacos for $5.50 (special of the day), they were both pretty good. Spicy though so watch out! :D

edit: i should mention they're to-go only, they're a real small stand-like place.

Did you happen to see their hours?  I'd like to check it out since it isn't too far from my house.

Thanks

I swung by there last night.  I'd say it definitely qualifies as a hole in the wall, but those chicken tacos I got were great, definitely have some heat to them, but not too spicy.  Their pico/salsa was good too.

No, they didn't have menus printed up yet. I know they're closed on Sundays, but they're open for lunch for sure the rest of the week.

LOL, I guess I'm a whuss! I brought it home and downed 2 large teas eating 1 chicken and 1 pork soft taco. Really good flavor, but they had some kick to them for sure!

Even spicy it's better than the two little tiny tacos you get at Corner Taco for $10!

Corner Taco has had a pretty large pricing change in the past few weeks based on customer feedback.

I had two tacos, chips and guac and a side of rice the other night (with local mahi and guac made on the spot with real avocados and not a starter paste like virtually all taco places use) for less than my burrito and chips/queso at Moes two nights earlier.

Thanks for the heads up about the changes.  I'll have to try them again.

I find most food trucks to be very expensive. I don't know what their overhead is but I'd imagine it's less than a B&M store. At any rate, the special was a good price, food was good and the portions were huge. I'll be back.

I too will be visiting there again.

I tried to try tasty taco...they are no longer in business? Or, did they move to a new location.
