El Cucuy Burritos

Wow. Just WOW. I'm originally from south Texas and have found most restaurants similar to be pretty subpar. Times are also tough so justifying high food prices when eating out has been hard to do. But this place. Absolutely worth every penny. We WILL definitely be regulars from now on. Not only are their prices fair but the food is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. It's been awhile since I've been so impressed by someone else's food. We tried their food truck at a recent festival and will be adding this gem to our rotation list. Even now, my husband and I are thinking of the next time we get to have their carne asada fries.

I have eaten at both food trucks (Eastside and Lucky Lou’s) location and at the restaurant. Every time the food is delicious, fresh and hot! I moved away from Denton and went last night to the food truck at Lucky Lou’s location it was just as good as the first time maybe better, the service was great and it was not a long wait time for them to make the burrito maybe 5 min. My favorite is the LA SUEGRA it’s the best! I highly recommend everyone giving them a try you won’t regret it!!

The carne asada fries tasted amazing! And you can get any of their burritos in a bowl, which I was very thankful for! I enjoyed everything here. The drink choices are limited. Also the bands that played tonight were most enjoyable. The people who worked here were nice and did a great job.

Such a cute little restaurant with a very welcoming environment. The staff were so friendly, like it actually just felt like I was talking to friends, the food was DELICIOUS and the wait was not very long at all. In fact the food was so good that my party had to order another round when we finished our plates. I had the Carne Asada fries and WOW. Lucky enough to get to chat with the owner for a bit and really this guy is someone that you want to support. Do yourself a favor and visit this place while in Denton. Or just drive to Denton and go there as the reason!

I want to preface this review by acknowledging that there were only two workers during this time and I understand that it was busy. I paid $46 dollars for my food and was not told that the wait would be for over one hour. As I checked the status of my order throughout that time, the gentleman working was nonchalant and had no sense of urgency. He said they were working on it at the hour mark. When I asked for a refund when my food was still not ready, they could not refund it to my card and rather asked if I wanted cash back. I declined as I wanted the receipt for the exchange. When I received my food, the chips were soggy and the burritos were cold. I want to be sure to remark that as the young gentleman was taking orders, it was not until after a customer paid that he would mention the wait would be for over 30 minutes; seeing as they couldn’t do refunds, this seems not in good practice.

This was the worst taco and food truck experience. First of all don’t go by the menu on the website per their words it’s not updated. No friendly vibes like the other food trucks in the same area. I went specifically for the carnitas tacos and the beef Quesabirria which they don’t make, again old menu online. I went with safe bet and ordered 4 carne asada taco plates and one chicken quesadilla. The kicker she said they don’t have hot sauce, Like What?? You guys it was horrible, Each taco had 2 or 3 tiny pieces of hard meat (like raisins size )and a handful of onions and specks of cilantro. They should be advertised as onion tacos. The micro tortillas were tuff and dry. No flavor in anything not even the poor quesadilla. I cannot speak on anything else they sale. I went Friday 9/27 around 8:30.

Mark is a pure artist. As soon as you step foot into his “home” you know your day is about to get seasoned with the most delicious food in the area. Every bite was pure happiness and an explosion of taste! My husband and I have traveled quite a bit, we’ve had some amazing food in the past! When we settled in Denton, we truly thought we’d never find a place that would bring back those late night Cali burrito runs. I truly appreciated the atmosphere and the welcoming environment Mark has created for every guest, Our go to place, El Cucuy Burritos, we’ll see you guys again and again and again! Thank you

Best burrito I have ever had in Denton! We got the El Cucuy carne asada burrito and the carne asada cheese fries. Killer food! So tasty. The burrito is done San Diego style, so it has fries inside it! Yum. They also have spicy red and spicy green salsas that are great. This is a great food truck on North Austin Street. Tasty stuff.
