The tacos at Paprika inspire long lines for a reason - Review - Austin - The Infatuation
"Paprika is tricky to find, but it’s worth the search. Just look for the bright Sriracha-colored truck next to a couple of vintage shops in the Highland neighborhood. If a crowd is hovering around it, you’ll know you’re in the right place. The menu is small but mighty—tacos, tortas, and quesadillas, each with about four or five different fillings, every one as good as the last. And on the weekends, Paprika busts out the trompo to make our favorite al pastor in Austin. The thick-cut meat lends itself to charred, crispy edges that complement the sweet pineapple slice on each taco. Start with carnitas or al pastor depending on the day—either way, you’re encountering some juicy pork—and balance things out with tangy nopalitos. Make it a quesitaco for a dollar more if you want to up the savory factor, then stop by the salsa bar and prepare to enjoy some of the best tacos in the city. photo credit: Nicolai McCrary photo credit: Nicolai McCrary photo credit: Nicolai McCrary photo credit: Nicolai McCrary photo credit: Nicolai McCrary Pause Unmute" - Nicolai McCrary
