Cuantos Tacos

Cuantos Tacos brings the true soul of Mexico City street food to the heart of East Austin. This popular truck sits inside a lively picnic grove where people gather for small but mighty bites. You should try the suadero because the tender brisket pairs perfectly with fresh onion and sharp cilantro. The thin yellow corn tortillas hold everything together while adding a nice toasted corn scent to the plate. You will love the rich beef cheek or the spicy longaniza served hot from the traditional pan. Many fans also suggest ordering the crispy cheese costras for a salty and gooey layer of extra flavor. Grab a cold glass bottle of Mexican soda to wash down those spicy and bold red salsas. This spot earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand because the high quality matches the very low prices perfectly.
