Such a great location for this food truck, amidst the buzz of the Williamsburg bar scene. So glad they serve soft tacos by default, because I can't stand the hard-shell variety. Their barbacoa (shredded goat) is a must-have, along with the pork carnitas. Super satisfying after a long night of boozing~!
After a wild night out in Brooklyn, my friends and I decide to have a quick bite before we went to bed.
So we decide to come to this food truck and we made our line and waited for our turn, I was the second one to order, I choose to eat the torta of steak, without beans, my other friend order the taco and my other one order a steak quesadilla.
My order came around 15 minutes later a good timing, one of my friends order came 25 minute after his place his order, and my last friend did not got his food.
A lot of people came order and got their order first than my last friend; even my other friends that arrive long time after we did, they ate first.
After almost 50 minutes of waiting for the order my friend decide to ask, where his food was, the guy in the truck say oh; I am sorry we don't have steak anymore.
That they run out of steak can happen anywhere, but what uncomfortable my friend, is that they waited more than 45 minutes to tell him that they did not have steak anymore. He got his money back and when to another place to place an order.
Even though my torta was good, the customer service giving to my others friends made me give then only 2 stars.
I am a fan of Taco Morelos, because of their perfect location near the L Train and my girlfriends old apartment. Unfortunately, she doesn't live as close, but still walkable on a more dedicated taco adventure.
I have only had the tacos, but I thought they were pretty good for a small cart/van thing. $2.50 is a great price for any style and they are very filling. Even though I am not a vegetarian, I think they might be the best ones they make. A nice squeeze of lime, ask for some cheese, and throw some hot sauce on and you're good to go.
Three tacos for $7.50. Stop at the corner store for some beer and my night has a successful beginning.
Is this the same brand Aziz Ansari calls the best in NYC? Is it better in the East Village? This place was a letdown this time. Chicken burrito had hella rice, which was really good, but not much else. It wasn't flavorful or even finish-able. The ingredients are fresh, I'll give it that. Its not as trashy as other mexican truck foods. I've gotten tacos here before and they were good, maybe its my bad, but still…
We've passed by this truck many times while in Williamsburg but never had the chance to try. What a mistake!
We finally tried the food here and was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly satisfied! We ordered spicy pork Torta, steak burrito, and pork burrito. The torta was just the right amount of food to share, if you're not trying to fill up. The pork was tasty and tender. Each bite includes more than enough meat laden with avocado and spicy sauce. The flavor was just perfect and the price was great for this area.
This is a definite must have for a quick bite before drinking or even a late night bite after drinking.
in mexico, a torta is a type of sandwich that usually comes garnished with bean spread, avocado, hot pepper sauce, tomatoes and others. you pick your favorite meat. at tacos morelos i tried the carnitas, which chopped seasoned pork.
so good! this taco truck was sitting lonely on my way to the sub station and since i was a bit hungry i said why not? service was quick and nice. my torta was awesome and i paid $6 for it, i think?
hell yes.
Bargain tacos from a truck
I wanted a quick snack before heading to Brooklyn Flea last weekend, so I gave this place a try. Their $2.50 tacos seemed like a good deal and I went with spicy pork and steak tacos. It was very quick and I had my piping hot tacos within two minutes.
Their ingredients were very fresh and I appreciated the lime wedge and radish slices they include with the tacos. The lime really cut through the dense taco, which had lettuce, salsa, guacamole, hot sauce, and cilantro (a definite must on these tacos). The spicy pork was great, nice slowly roasted taste to it and very tender and easy to bite through. I preferred it to the steak tacos, whose meat was a little tough and not as flavorful. The spicy pork also had a perfect level of spiciness, a slight tinge without the desperation for water. The double corn tortillas wrap everything into a nice little package. Whether you're looking for lunch or a quick snack. this wallet-friendly truck will be able to fulfill your Mexican food cravings.

I would say their tacos are slightly above average.
