They only have one type of taco, the Discada taco. They're tiny so order more than normal.

This is one of my favorite taco joints. Where to begin... all their tacos are amazing, with the carnitas and suadero being my favorites.
On Saturdays, they have Al Pastor tacos which are incredible - but they do sell out.
Bonus: It's located at Arbor Park where you can BYOB and get food from other trucks, like Sammataro Pizza which IMO is the best pizza in Austin.

Show up on Saturdays to get the trompo al pastor - its top 3 Al Pastor in Austin... it would be #1 if they threw some pineapple on it.
Or show up any day they’re open for some excellent carnitas, bistek, and nopalitos tacos.

Although the name is Rosita's Al Pastor... I think their barbacoa taco is the best one. They're open super late, till like 4am.

The tacos at La Tunita are excellent, and the chili and lime-infused consomé is so good.
They usually have a limited menu of rotating specials and tortas here, but most of the people anxiously lined up are there for the beef birria tacos or the quesabirria, the latter of which adds a signature spin on things by frying the cheese directly on the griddle before going into its tortilla blanket.

I love Las Trancas. It can get super busy but they are so efficient, the line moves very fast and your order comes out quickly. Everything is good but the pastor and lengua tacos are the best!

Ok so this is one of my top 3. They aren't a food truck and their dishes are more gourmet (and pricier) but you can't get duck confit tacos like these anywhere else. Sunday brunch is amazing too - and right by the house!
