Tacos El Calentano

wonderful people running a decent food truck. more seating is actually available outside by the back of the gas station. my favorite is al pastor tacos fast service and they have taco Tuesdays ! always great people.. I recently tried the fried enchiladas! u can park in the gas station to access the truck. drinks r purchased from the gas station

No-frill, really good taco truck with good price. Juicy, nicely flavored meats, great tomatillo sauce, crispy tortillas, and really good flavor all around. Probably the best in the area, and we have eaten a lot around here (save your money by not going to chido taco). Haven't had anything under average so far. They serve breakfast menu from 6 - 10am, and normal menu from 10am-closed. Also, don't shy away from their specials, which unfortunately weren't listed on their website (likewise with breakfast menu). Just go there to order directly, the waiting time is very short. We've tried all of their tacos, huaraches, torta el Calentano, and will try the breakfast soon. They have a small cozy seating area behind the truck.

Came here with my friends and ate the tacos so fast I couldn’t take a picture. Delicious, very hot, and the workers were super nice. Very cheap and better than Chipotle

Tried this taco truck while visiting Cary. It is located right next to a gas station. We tried tacos, quesadillas and gorditas. Carne assda tacos, tacos de chicharron and gorditas were good. Quesadillas are overpriced. We also tried jamaica (hibiscus) water and it was good. Service is a little slow but everyone was polite.

We ordered tacos to be catered for a birthday party and we could not be more thankful that we did! It was the highlight of the party, everyone raved about how good the tacos and salsas were. The tacos arrived warm with all the toppings on the side. We will definitely be back for more. Excellent customer service as well! Special shout-out to Miguel for helping accommodate our request!

Hidden gem for tacos and tortas! The carne asada and the al pastor are my go tos right now. Can’t wait to explore the rest of the menu!

As a vegetarian it is so hard to find veggie tacos that are solid, I have searched and looked for veggie tacos are well rated restaurants too but they are unable to make them for some unknown reason (just asking for avocado, lime, cilantro, pico, lettuce, radish, onions, veggies, rice, authentic Mexican cheese and beans not rocket science especially when most places have those ingredients at hand) or they just put pico, lettuce and Kraft Mexican blend cheese, no por favor! I have been here twice and they have been super accommodating to add the things I mentioned, friendly and fast. I’m so glad this hidden gem exists in Cary. It is a food trunk, there are some outdoor seating with chairs. They also serve Aqua Pina currently. This is my new to go place for tacos! 3 loaded tacos w. sauce only for $10!

This is exactly what a taco truck should be, except I haven't tried the tacos. I drive here from the other side of Cary just for the tortas. Yeah, it's just a Mexican sandwich, but a torta is one of my favorite lunch meals, and El Calentano has the best around!
