My favorite and I know a lot of the taco stands in town! The staff are super — they seem genuinely happy and the tacos are great, cheap, and delicious… the hot sauce, which is a big part of my judging mechanism is excellent :) the tacos are homemade, and they spice them with just the right amount of extra love and cilantro!

I’ve been coming here ever since i was a kid, im 26 now. I basically grew up on this taco truck. Its amazing food. Home made corn tortillas. The food is fresh. You can call in orders. You can sit at the picnic tables on beautiful days. You definitely have to gove it a shot when your in the neighborhood!

I stopped here for a quick bite to eat while traveling. I looked them up after they were featured in the southern living magazine in the fall. They are a hole in the wall place, but after you eat there you won’t forget it. Homemade corn tortillas are delicious. I purchased nopal with cheese and fajita tacos for my family. After leaving I regretted not buying more my boys are picky and the wanted more. Thank you for providing great service, at great prices and awesome service. I will be back.

Simply put, amazing breakfast tacos. And cheap too, $ 2 each, whatever you put on them. The nopales and eggs are especially good. Usually pretty busy on the weekend, but worth the wait. You can save a little time if you phone in your order.

I’ve lived in this neighborhood for 7 years. We are loyal customers to La Flor. I have their number on my phone. *ring ring* «Bueno!» «Hey it’s Graham from down the street» «OHHEY! — How many tacos today?»… and after that it’s just a matter of establishing how many Al Pastor or egg, bacon & cheese are necessary. Best Al Pastor in town. Hands down!

It’s amazing. The tacos are super cheap and taste awesome, the best flour tortillas.

DELICIOUS, cheap tacos that do not disappoint. I find myself craving/comparing La Flor’s tacos when I’m at a sit-down Mexican restaurant and I think that says a lot. Cash only.

If you’re looking for fast, affordable, and delicious, this is the place. There are a couple picnic tables, but you’re probably better off getting it to go(tables are in the Texas sun). Tacos are cheap at only $ 2 a piece(cash only I think). Two should be good for most people, three if you’re famished or just eat a lot. The handmade tortillas have a reputation for a reason. Both flour and corn were delicious and while I normally favor flour, I enjoyed their corn more. The Desebrada was my favorite of what I tried, and I will certainly be back here to explore more of the menu!

Another reviewer said this was a great place even for vegetarian tacos. No, it is not! BEAWARE, they cook EVERYTHINGINLARD! Nothing on the menu can be made vegetarian because it is all made with lard. No bueno. As a vegetarian, I am used to having to avoid certain menu items like beans or rice which are more often than not made with lard, bacon, chicken stock, or other animal products. This is usually no big deal because I can order an egg, potato, nopale taco or whatever other veggie options a place offers. But you can’t do that at La Flor since everything is cooked in lard and they don’t offer a vegetarian-friendly alternative. Bummer. But there are plenty of other yummy taco places in Austin to choose from.

Best breakfast tacos in town, I live way north but try to make it down at least once a month. Have driven from 4 points just for the homemade corn tortillas also!

I used to stop by here somewhat rarely on the off-chance that I was early to work. Since then, I’ve started working from home. Among other things, this means I can go days without wearing pants, assuming I don’t want to go out and get things like food. Some days, La Flor is the only reason I wear pants.

These are the tacos my grandma used to make me on Sunday mornings. Homemade carnitas, hand-cut papas and those hand-rolled flour tortillas! If for nothing else, go for the tortillas. Unlike anything you can find in Austin. Check out the menu I posted for the different types of tacos. They’re out of some of the meats later in the day, so keep an open mind. They’re also super accommodating, like making me a quesadilla and huevos a la mexicana when they’re not even on the menu. Best part? $ 2 tacos, no matter what you order.

Highly underrated! Delicious, fresh, filling tacos are the bomb! Seriously, their tortillas are to die for. Everything is made fresh, but it never takes them long to create the deliciousness. There can be a language barrier, at times, but it gives me a chance to practice my Spanish! Love this place!

So I had my reservations eating at this place… located outside of a corner store that’s sole purpose is to sell cigarettes, lotto tickets and booze, and having a handwritten menu in a stand that looks hand built, it just looked seedy to me. However this place has probably the best breakfast taco in Austin, certainly the best that I’ve had! 2 $ is a great deal; these tacos will fill you until dinner. Tortillas taste handmade, perfectly scrambled eggs with a little pico, skillet potatoes, salty mexican bacon and ooey gooey cheese… mmm. I live within walking distance, I can see myself coming here on a weekly basis. Don’t waste your money at some taco cabana or some poorly made donut shop tacos.

Delicious breakfast tacos for a good price. The flour tortillas were handmade, soft, and slightly chewy. We got one taco with bacon, sausage and eggs(savory) and the other with potato, eggs, sausage and beans(filling). If you want a hearty meal, get two tacos! Don’t forget the sauce!

Fairly solid cheap taco trailer. Their basic breakfast taco, which for my purposes is bacon/egg/cheese, is good and cheap, as it should be, and comes on a decent tortilla. Good salsa, though it’s not quite spicy enough for me. Their tortas are also worth investigating. They somewhat atypically come with refried beans in addition to your normal fillings(lettuce, sour cream, jalapeños). Carnitas is a good bet if you’re torn between meats. A breakfast taco and a torta is a grand total of $ 6. They’re in the Stop and Shop parking lot about midway between Stassney and St Elmo on S 1st, which is a somewhat odd location but at least is fairly convenient for me. They’re open for breakfast and lunch only, but they serve breakfast stuff at lunch too, the way that God intended.

La Flor is in the top tier of the Austin taco totem pole. If you’re nearby when they’re open(breakfast and lunch only), you better get your taco on. Handmade corn and flour tortillas(I usually stalk my tacos on corn tortillas, but here, I get both because they actually do wheat flour justice). The tortillas are huge, so the tacos are a great value as well.

This is my favorite spot for vegan tacos south of Ben White even though every time I order they say«no egg?» with a lot of suprise. Lucky for me they always get it right and they don’t use lard in their refried beans, they are so delicious. The homemade corn tortillas are the best I have ever had and I love their spicy green salsa. I also get the potatoes and the nopalitos.

My god!!! this place makes the best fijita tacos or what??? We eat here almost every day. My favorite is the fajita taco. Make sure you ask for the grilled peppers(They can be extremely hot). If you are looking some great tacos in town this place is the best!!! BTW, this place is called«La Flor» not La flour!!!
