We stopped by Mission X Tacos after the Longhorns football game on Saturday night. Fun fact, Texas Monthly had posted about them after visiting the previous day. Of course we had to try them!
This is a food truck located outside of Hill Country Ice House. There's is plenty of outdoor seating. We were even told that we could wait inside (where there's cold AC) and enjoy some drinks.
After traveling to the game, being in the sun all day, dehydrated, and famished, our eyes were bigger than our bellies. We wanted it all. The chef on site explained that they make their own flour tortillas and salsas, and fry their chips up fresh.
We ordered an assortment including pastor taco on corn, bistec taco on flour, borracho nachos with chicken, and quesadilla. He even brought out some chips and salsa to enjoy while we waited.
The starter was delicious. The chips were warm and crunchy and the salsa was something I could eat all day. It was fresh and flavorful with a very mild heat.
The tacos were stuffed with the meats, onions, cilantro, and pineapple. They are fairly sizable and filling. Both the bistec and pastor were packed with flavor and perfectly prepared.
The quesadilla was filled with cheese and perfectly toasted. There was a little crunch and a lot of cheesy goodness. The chipotle cream was my favorite. A wedge of quesadilla with the beans and chipotle was a heavenly bite.
The borracho nachos were delicious! A pile of freshly fried chips topped with chicken, beans, queso, jalapenos, pico, aguacate, and sour cream. The chicken was so good, some of the best I've had. The chips smothered in queso, beans, and salsas somehow managed to maintain optimum crispness.
10/10
That chicken was fantastic. The salsas were fresh and flavorful with just a touch of heat. The tortillas were fluffy and delicious. The only thing I would do different is ask for more salsas and cilantro and onions for the tacos.
We will definitely come back for more.
