    Awesome, authentic Mexican joint! We are visiting Austin for three days and stopped here already three times! Such a cool, authentic spot! And that horachta! Good prices, fresh ingredients, and good vibes. Open outdoor seating. Open til 3am and popping! Excellent spot.

    Had this last night, amazing! Taste so good. I'm from California, but I live in San Antonio. I must say Austin has the best Mexican food, hands down. The service, the atmosphere, it's all great. Thank you!

    I can't believe I just found this place after living in Austin longer than most people reading this have been alive. This place is not just your average taco truck. It's an establishment that's going to be around forever. To begin with, it's open 20 hours a day You can literally have some late night tortas after being out and about all night, fall out of bed I'm the morning and grab some breakfast tacos. I had El chavo torta, it wasn't bad, it wasn't great. My wife ordered 3 tacos and only finished 2, I got the al pastor, which was good. The other two she had were tripas and bistec. She enjoyed them and said the flavor was better than most. When we went they didn't have drinks but since it's attached to a gas station you can grab whatever you want in there. So overall the food is better than average, if they're busy, service might be a bit slow but you absolutely can't beat the convenience of late night food.

    Fast and friendly service. I need to come back and try the spinach egg and cheese tacos. I'll be back again. Hidden gem right off 35

    This is Tacos Las Amazonas on South Congress. Start with this. Really nice people working here. Covered area to eat. This is the way flour tortillas should be done. Not too thick. Crisped up a bit right before plating. Really, really good. Let me chime in here early...the yellow salsa (not the tomatillo one) is pretty spicy. Beware. I did the chorizo and egg and bacon and egg, as usual. I hate the cheese on these, so asked them not to do it. Really good. Both. The bacon was more substantial than most. Lots of eggs in both. I came her previously and the crappy cheese ruined the tacos. Really KEY to omit the cheese.

    Tacos Las Amazonas is super tasty! I stopped in for late night and it took them some time to complete the order, but it was worth the wait! I opted for quesadillas and added chicken fajitas. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying. One of the best quesadillas I've had in Austin! The quesadilla didn't come with rice or beans, but was relatively filling and cost ~$9. Overall: I was pleasantly surprised by the extensive food menu. Their breakfast menu is notably massive. I was highly satisfied with the food and will definitely be back to try out tacos and breakfast!

    Came to this truck because an old friend recommended it to me a while back. Parking is limited as it's in a gas station parking lot but I went early enough that it wasn't an issue for me. I ordered 4 pastor tacos. I was looking for a full order of tacos but I was told they were sold individually. Service was quick and requested my meal to go. I opened up my bag and unwrapped my tacos. The meal wasn't appealing to the eye but I told myself it's not always pretty! I opened up the green and red salsa. Neither were really spicy so I was a little disappointed. Now... the tacos. Beyond speechless. These are some of the most flavorful pastor tacos I have EVER had in the Austin area. I mean PACKED with flavor. It made up for the salsas lacking in taste I'm excited to come back and try a different meat because if Pastor was this good the rest have to be just as good.

    One of a few spots that opens till 1am/2am in south Austin . We came here after bouldering and it was pretty late. The cashier was very nice in explaining to us what each taco was and how you pronounce them correctly. Super friendly. I ordered 1 taco and tortas while my friends order lots more taco. The amount of food that came with tortas was a lot. I couldn't finish the tortas. Good amount of food and good tasting too. Would come back after bouldering.
