"Las Trancas is one of Austin’s favorite spots for late-night tacos, and their close proximity to downtown on Cesar Chavez makes them perfect for soaking up a few drinks after a long night out, without sacrificing on flavor. Regardless of the sun’s location, Las Trancas has made a name for themselves by offering a pretty extensive menu of tacos, tortas, and quesadillas, and doing them all well. There are a lot of solid options here, but you should definitely make some crispy tripas, lengua, and carnitas tacos a part of your order. What to get: Crispy tripas; Lengua; Carnitas; Campechano tacos" - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion

"For the money and the flavor, this East Austin truck is tough to beat. The daytime and late-night street tacos are tiny bundles of delight with a sheen of grease and thinly shaved spiced meats. The menu has the standards, but fans of offal will be pleased to find tripas and lengua. Walk up and order to go, or hit the communal, covered picnic tables for a taco party." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Tacos make for great meals and the East Austin truck’s menu is delicious and affordable. Takeout orders can be placed in person; there are outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
"The East Austin truck offers a variety of mean tacos as well as delicious, simple tortas. The torta cubana is perfect, heaped with ham, cheese, and chorizo, and it’s big enough for two portions. Anything can be turned into a torta, from the al pastor to lengua to even hot dogs (just ask for it). There are outdoor dine-in tables." - Clara Wang
