Can I have my $ 9 back please? I had a huarachada, bland and dry chicken, no spices, no flavor, plain beans, and hot sauce that was just hot, no flavor whatsoever. I wouldn’t have minded so much if it had been say… $ 4 but what a waste, I’m sad too, my expectations were much higher.

The Holy Frijoles food truck was serving up food at the Coyote Drive In tonight. I ordered the smoked duck street tacos. I had to wait about 10 minutes, but I was rewarded with a trio of piping hot tacos with a side of rice. While the duck was not very smoky, the tacos tasted fresh, topped with delicious spinach that is sauteed while you wait. Ask for some avocado slices for an extra special treat. I usually skip the rice, but I really enjoyed the Holy Frijoles version with kernels of corn and a rich buttery flavor. Overall, a nice food truck meal!

Just so so. The best part of the chicken huarache was the corn tortilla. The chicken was bland and dry. The other items they had available looked good. Perhaps worth another try with something different next time.

Tried it today at the Fort Worth food park and I was raised in California and excited to eat some real good tacos since it has been a while. I ordered 2 Al Pastor and 1 Asada taco and the best thing was probably the toasted corn tortilla. Both meats were extremely bland. There was no seasoning or flavor from marinating done at all. Also the green salsa had no real flavor or heat to it and the orange salsa(I’ve never seen orange salsa, most of the time it’s red) tasted like a type of dressing with no heat either. And to make it worse the meat was cold. Maybe it was an off day based on the other reviews but for $ 2 plus per taco I expected better.

First time I had it was at River legacy park food truck friday. They have the best street-style tacos ever. It made the wait worth while. I absolutely will come back for more. I love their home made hot sauce, and the variety of veggies they used on their tacos. Everything goes well together, and made your taste buds tingle.

Had the Mexicana. Wasn’t worth the $$$. Had the potential but was bland. I overlooked the bone I chomped on. Sandwhich and drink close to 12 bucks. I’ll try a different truck next time.

I have a fair amount of knowledge cooking in a corporate kitchen, smoking bbq, an I love to cook at home. This was my first food truck visit an wow! I’m originally from south TX where u can walk across the border an visit any roadside food truck/cart an it be delish. I had to try a variety so between me an the girlfriend we got, street tacos, squash blossom, and haurancha. Man I had no complaints it was all hot tasted fresh, an it was quick. I’ll definitely be on the hunt for the next place Holy Frijoles will be at. Highly recommend!

I had the pleasant surprise of finding this food truck at the clear fork food park(university &30) and am in love with their dish called ‘huaraches’ which is a special hand made corn tortilla(so delicious and probably lightly fried) which has a bit of beans stuffed inside it, then topped off with pastor(they nailed this pork) and the usual: lettuce, pico, guac, avocado, sour cream, and a bit of high quality freshly grated cheese. The seller was particularly witty and fun to order from and talk to, and I saw three other things on the menu that I will enjoy next time: their veggies sound wonderful(substitute for the meats), and they have two special quesadillas(traditional mexican recipes): one with calabacitas(but its not the meat of the squash its the ‘crown’) and the same with corn(a bit of corn meat but mostly the crown on the top). These last two I haven’t had and I probably slaughtered the descriptions, but they sounded wonderful, and I will be pleased when I am able to get back to the truck.

This is truly a hidden gem as someone already stated. My wife and I went looking for something new and discovered this. The food was amazing!!! We ate in the Usual(a bar) very nice ambience. If you are looking for some good AUTHENTIC Tex Mex, this is it.

After I got past the surreal sight of huitlachoche, flor de calabaza, and chicharrón prensado on an English menu, I realized accidentally leaving my lunch on the garage workbench was the best thing that had happened all week. And bonus plus, it was down time and I had dope convo with a Central Mexican about just where did mole come from? And what’s up with throwing back tequila shots? Savor it. Or start by savoring corn smut, zucchini flower, and never-dried pork skin with extra pork fat. Respectively.

The tortas are the bomb. Squash blossom quesadilla is excellent too. I rode my bike an extra couple miles down the trinity trails to find where the food truck was one time, b/c they weren’t at the clear fork park that day.

I had three tacos from this truck on June 6 at Arlington’s River Legacy Park. They were three tiny flat tortillas with a light sprinkling of dry beef and chicken, some onion and cilantro. Not what I consider tacos, and not worth $ 8.

I had my first food truck experience yesterday. Holy Frijoles was my first! I had the Asada street tacos. It comes with 3 meat filled tacos with cilantro and onions, two sauces and lime on the side. One sauce is reddish/orange in color almost resembles hot sauce not salsa, but hot sauce and a green sauce. The red sauce has a kick to it, but put both sauces on the tacos together and it has a refreshing taste. I was a little sad that I was halfway into my 3rd taco and realized I ate the other two so fast! Lol.

Finally, some authentic, simple, street tacos. None of this Tex-Mex crap served up by others. I got the 3 tacos deal and had two with carne asada and the third with al pastor. The ordering process was simple, done outside of the truck and then you get a receipt. They call your number moments later and you are all set. The tacos were a decent size and very down home tasting. They just come with cilantro, onions, and lime, the way it should be. These guys know what they are doing and execute it well. Find them at a nearby location!

Holy Frijoles! is the food truck located in the parking lot behind The Usual(see my review). It is exceptionally good and offers some amazing – dare I say the best – street tacos. Their lengua(beef tongue) tacos are my personal favorite, but they are all delicious… and cheap! They will occasionally(on busy nights) come through The Usual and take orders, but you can always pop right out the patio door and grab some great tacos. Holy Frijoles! is a great bonus to The Usual(which doesn’t serve food) and helps satiate your hunger while you’re busy drinking cocktails in the bar. If you’re craving tacos of unparalleled quality, Holy Frijoles! is the place to try.

Great Taco Truck! Street Tacos are always good, but really anything they serve will be served to your liking. Normally we eat at this truck at the Fort Worth Food Park. It’s a good Food Truck place w/a lot of variety.

If I could give it zero or negative, I would. $ 8.50 + tax for a flat quesadilla looking thing full of nothing but lettuce that was supposed to be steak & potato? Don’t waste your money. Walk down to the Yucatan Taco Stand for REAL food instead of lettuce & a flour tortilla for $ 10!

STOP… Just Stop… you had me at tortas. Holy Frijoles is nestled behind the hidden gem called the Usual. I’m absolutely in love with this concept. Imbibe in the specialty concoctions in the Usual and Indulge on one of the(and maybe the very) best taco stands of all time. Over board? Only your taste buds can judge that theory… I challenge you to break the barrier and venture to Ft. Worth for this prize. TACOS:(pork and beef tongue) The beef tongue was tender and end up forgetting that you’re frenching a dead cow. It was my first time with a heifer(blushing). The pork was amazing and tender as well. However, the SAUCE is BOSS. Whatever evil that was in me got compelled and I became a NEWMAN!!! Hallelujah! QUESADILLA:(Zucchini) Yes, I did… I had a zucchini quesadilla. No other quesadillas will ever live up to this one… not even shrimp… maybe with bacon on it, c’mon now! TORTAS:(pastor/pork) My new love. Lightly toasted bun(maybe? it was dark in the parking lot) and soft to the bite. The pastor seemed like it was marinated. Just as good as the tacos. The main kicker was the queso that was in the torta. The queso was the reason of all this madness. ITWASTHEQUESO that brought them all together!!! Get on your knees and tell the torta you love it! Yes, I’ll go back for seconds. You’re talking to the Sandwichmaker for f— sakes. We ate in the parking lot before we got robbed of what we had. Back away, there’s no sharing here. Get you some.

Great food and an excellent location. right behind the best cocktails in Cowtown: The Usual. The choices are not the typical tex-mex food truck, but some great quality choices You can really tell the family knows what they are doing and not just trying to whip something up and send you off. I tried the burrito and was pleasantly surprised to have it delivered into The Usual when it was ready; all set in front of me on a real plate with forks and knives. Impressive. Great food for the price, and the convenience is awesome.
