Great tacos!!! I mean really great!!! Homemade tortillas that were crunch around the edges and held together in the middle. Ingredients were so flavorful. Had one carne asada and one tacos al pastor. Could have eaten 4 more if I didn’t need to drive home. Price was very reasonable. If you are close to them, make sure you seek them out. Good job Big Sur Tacos. A truly enjoyable meal.
We saw this food truck while driving through Big Sur on vacation and it was DELICIOUS! The tortillas are made fresh on site and the staff was incredibly friendly.
Best Taco Truck around. Best handmade tortillas and spectacular meats and veggie options. Executed a complex wedding in Big Sur at Henry Miller Library during COVID planning times. Completely seamless. Uber professional. Did not need to worry about them. Delivered beyond our expectations. Photo credit: KubaOkonphotography
