Food was fine but definitely not great. “Authentic” in the name is laughable. The beans and rice were both too hard- like the rice was old and recooked and the beans were not cooked enough. The shrimp tacos tasted fine but I fear food poisoning. The patio and atmosphere is nice though. We went on 9/26 around 5pm and service was fine. Not notable one way or another. The convenience factor is the only thing keeping this place afloat, judging from the other reviews and our experience.

If I could rate 0 I would. I was actually scared to serve food cooked in this place to my family and I was only standing in line. Filthy place, first and foremost.

There was no pause to wash his hands a... read more

There was only one server, a young girl, who was consistently working hard (wiped down our table and getting the others from the back).

My husband and I visit our family's lakehouse nearly every weekend in the Still Waters area, and he used to eat at this truck when it was "shady taco" every day after work and he loved it. We came back just tonight and and waited about 1.25 hours before we went up to the counter to ask how much longer it would be. Others had been waiting extended times as well so we assumed it would be any "minute" but then the minutes stretched into over an hour. When we went to the counter, they had no record of our order saying the receip... read more

Nice outdoor area to eat with yard games, shade, and an adjacent bar. Food however was very poor quality. The burritos were made with canned nacho cheese and beans, grilled peppers and chicken. Almost inedible. Would not recommend.
