Tacos Guerrero

You'll find this tasty taco truck located on the northwest corner of Coconut and Orange Boulevards in what appears to be the front yard of a residential home. The lot is kinda large so just find a reasonable place to park, then order and pull up a folding chair at one of the camping tables to await your meal.

The choices are limited to four items - tacos, burritos, quesadillas and tortas, but they offer a pretty broad selection of toppings (especially for a taco truck).

On my last visit, I got an assortment of tacos and one burrito. While all the tacos were flavorful, they were kinda scant in the fillings and only made with one corn tortilla. Honestly, I think it's too little for a $3-$4 taco (price depends upon the filling). Still, the shredded barbacoa was tasty and well seasoned but a bit dry and needed extra lime juice and salsa. The asada tasted as it should - simple and beefy. The chorizo filling had some nice spice and was juicy with fat, but the al pastor was merely adequate and needed a bump in flavor. It wasn't bad, mind you, but it wasn't all that great either. I really wanted to try the suadero but they were out. The tacos were served in the usual street style topped with minced onion and cilantro then accompanied by lime wedges, radishes, fried onions and a grilled pepper. All in all, the tacos are about a 3 out of 5 - satisfying, but not outstanding.

The burrito, however, was much more satisfying. It was filled with rice, beans and a healthy portion of carnitas. In fact, the carnitas was the best filling I tried with the chorizo coming a close second. The carnitas had great texture and superior flavor compared to the other leaner meats and I'll definitely try it on the tacos next time. I also like that they grilled the burrito. That really added some nice flavor and texture to the flour tortilla. It was also served with a grilled pepper, a bit of guacamole and a generous dallop of crema. Really quite tasty for $10. Solid 4 out of 5.

Finally, the service was friendly and familial. The young girl who took my order was pleasant and helpful, and it felt as good as always to eat at a privately owned business instead of some commercial chain or franchise.

I'm curious to try the tortas next time, and I have a hunch that the quesadillas are great here, despite the fact that I rarely eat them and that I've never seen or tasted one offered here. It's just a hunch that the rich, melted cheese and grilled, pressed tortilla will lift the fillings to a flavorful next level.

All in all, Tacos Guerrero is a solid, though not epic, bet for a simple meal that is far better than typical American fast food. I'll definitely return for more. I just won't be going out of my way to do it.

4 out of 5.

From what I can tell they have 4 menu items. Tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and tortas. And you choose one meat for each item (they have every kind of meat you can think of). I don't know the prices but I ordered a burrito, quesadilla, and a can of soda and it came out to $22. It wasn't the biggest burrito I ever had but the quality is definitely there.

Literally the best taco truck in West Palm beach. They prepare it fresh, and the seasoning is excellent. One of my biggest complaints about Mexican food in South Florida is the lack of authentic southwest seasoning. These guys don't have that problem.

I am so glad I stopped by this place on my way home, the food is so so good. I got the steak burrito and steak quesadilla and it was absolutely heavenly. 11/10 would recommend this place.

Stopped by this taco truck I see set up near my house all the time. Ordered a chicharron and carnitas burrito for myself, and chicken quesadillia for my kids. Let's just say I'll be stopping by at least 1x a week from here on out. The red hot sauce was delicious also.
