The Taco King (Food Truck) — Restaurant in Cypress

These guys deserve a proper review, now that I've been there over ten times, and have brought my friends and family to the place.

Let's just break it down. These, friendly dudes give you a double corn tortilla dipped or drizzled in lard and cooked on a pan, slam about 3/4 of a pack of cards volume of delicious, red, pork al pastor that has been cooked on a rotating spit (this practice came from Middle Eastern immigrants to Mexico), and then generously mound them with fresh onions and cilantro. They do one of these for a dollar and twenty five cents. Most people should probably eat 2-4 of these, and that is an extremely delicious and satisfying meal for $2.50-$5.00. Everyone there has been nice. I always tip a dollar, because I feel like I'd be ripping THEM off if I didn't. The guy that seems to run the truck (they have two trucks, or possibly 3) is always asking me if I want to try things like their fresh jalepeno onion blend, or a seared serrano pepper. They usually add sauteed/grilled (not sure actually) onions to the middle of my plate for me to enjoy. Cypress is a bit of a rich area. Honestly I've been all around Houston trying various taco joints (had a very mobile job in the past), and just thought a truck like this would never come to a "rich" area like this. I absolutely love what they do, and their food is fantastic. You can get an incredible meal for less than what you would spend elsewhere. They're doing God's work, and I love them for it. Must try. Get the al pastor. Five stars, easy.

Also, go for the salsa roja as well as the verde, they're both great, and I tend to like verde more, but this place has a really...

The food is good and since it’s so local it’s an even bigger plus. However the biggest downside to that is, I can no longer support my local taco truck.

This place used to be my go to spot for any taco craving, however my last time going there ruined years of great experiences. I ordered my normal order, however due to recent price increases I was a few cents short (5 to be exact). I then was told by the lady at the register that they needed 5 cents, as if my $30 would not be enough to only then have the same lady get told that it was okay, let it go keep the line moving. She then proceeded to ask the gentleman on the cooking line about the situation and he ensured her they needed the 5 cents.

I went back into the gas station to pull out another $20 (ATM minimum) just to pay my 5 cent debt. When I had returned I found out the lady behind me also experienced the same thing because she spoke up about the situation and they put her through the same issue. She was short a penny, one freaking cent! Not even to say that they had me wait for them to clear the line just to give them my payment and release my food.

It’s about time you guys stop being so cheap and get a square card reader at least! I’m happy the line is shorter and shorter every...

I give 0 stars for trying to cheat people out of $. I give 4 stars for the food. Tacos are $1.25, cheese $.50, each extra hot sauce container $.50. I have no problem with a business charging what they charge for their items but if change is owed, give customers their change back. The customer decides whether you, the business keeps the change or not, even if it's only $.25. It's the principle, not about the money! Customers work hard for their money just like you as business work hard to run your business. Not to mention, they take cash only and we all know why certain businesses only take cash. So customers, make sure you know what your items cost and what the total is before you pull your cash out!!! Example, if your total is $9 and they see you have a $10 bill in your hand, they'll say it's $10 so they can try to avoid...
