At Cuantos Tacos, you’ll find a chill vibe serving up authentic, mouthwatering tacos with nixtamal tortillas that hold their own against a flavorful variety of fillings.
"A go-to for Mexico City-style tacos, this Central East Austin food truck offers delightful fare, including suadero, buche, champiñones, and more. The real move is to get one of each — they’re small, so this is very doable. The truck is parked at Arbor Food Park, which has a large outdoor dining area shared between the trucks. There is online to-go ordering, but these tacos are best fresh and eaten on-site." - Erin Russell
"A food truck that specialized in hamburgers, closed down on January 25, 2023. The team hinted at potential pop-ups or a return." - Courtney E. Smith
"This taco truck in the Arbor Food Park on East 12th serves up incredible Mexico City-style tacos ($3), costras ($3.25), and quesadillas ($8) to provide variety on a budget. Try the longaniza taco or the crispy costras filled with melted cheese. There’s an outdoor dining area, plus online ordering and delivery are available." - Erin Russell, Nadia Chaudhury
"The beauty and bounty of Mexico City-style tacos can be found at this Central East Austin food truck run by Luis “Beto” Robledo. The snack-sized tacos make it easier to mix and match fillings. The meats are remarkably tender — don’t miss out on the cachete with barabcoa meat — and the vegetables are nothing to sleep on, either. Look no further than the champiñones (grilled mushrooms that are, unfortunately, not vegetarian). Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury, Erin Russell
"Texas Monthly rounded up the best tacos of the state. The rest of the unranked list’s city places include Cuantos Tacos." - Nadia Chaudhury
