El Torito Taquería can be found on Battleground Avenue, near Rice Toyota in the CITGO gas station parking lot. It is tasty, authentic Mexican food at unbelievably low prices. Tacos are $1.00 each, add 50 cents for cheese. You can get pork, chicken, or beef tacos, including tongue. They also sell quesadillas and a few other items. To drink, are horchatas and tamarind. Come prepared to order in Spanish. Or to say the one phrase that you recognize off of the menu (e.g., taco con pollo). The truck looks so charming at night, and just after a rain.
Greensboro has many food trucks and we have heard good things about all of them. Maybe because street food is a relatively new concept for Greensboro, owners of the food trucks try extra hard to please customers. Likely, brick and mortar restaurants have concerns about this mobile form of competition; however, we'd like to think there is room for everybody and that having the food-truck alternative just makes people want to eat out more often.
Have you eaten food truck food in Greensboro?
Great price for a tasty taco!

It looks like quite a long food truck.

I'm always a little skeptical of such food trucks - I'm not sure they checked for violations as often as they should be but on the other hand I know there are some hard-working people making a living this way. I'd certainly give this a try.

Not many food trucks around here, I would surely give this a try!
