Never had someone pop the cap off the bottle for me. Super small detail; but those are the ones that count. Food was worth it as well.
Hands down, best taco's we've ever had. Perfectly spiced meat, fresh fish, nice soft homemade shells. There's literally nothing negative I could say about them or this place. Service, selection, location...all right on point. We've been back multiple times and been up and down the menu, it's all good. The next time you drive by this place for the 785th time, pull in and give it a try. And even if it's 20 miles out of your way, go there...and give it a try.
Recently a friend of mine mentioned this place called "El Camion" in next door Woodbury CT. Apparently I had driving by it like at least 785 times on the way to other joints in Woodbury, but never gave it much notice. It was in a building that had been about 50 different places in the past 10 years, so I figured...eh, probably not much happening there. So I'm often wrong about stuff.
Great food- best tacos around. Small and cozy restaurant offers soda and beer. Also has food truck available for events and private parties. Check it out
Seeing as this friend was a big fat guy, and proud of it, I figured I had to get out there ASAP. ASAP being the next day. As my son and I pulled into the parking lot, we spotted the actual truck that they originally started in...this was going to be great! We also spotted a really sweet looking patio, win again!
This is a local place serving really great food. Particularly recommend the chicken and steak tacos, but the standout favorite is the fish tacos.
We walked in the front door and were greeted with what looked like a very simple and straight-forward menu, which I love. Do a few things great, and I don't care if you only do a few things. And if you let me order and pay at a counter, then bring me my food? Seriously, you're doing it right.
We decided to keep it basic for the first visit; my portly friend had recommend the chicken and steak tacos, and 2 each of those if we wanted to be filled up. I decided to knock that down to 3 (steak, chicken, pork) and my son went with the same but opted for 2 fish in lieu of the pork. We also figured that the chips and salsa were a no-brainer. Paid our bill and took a seat inside. It was a bit chilly outside, otherwise we would have hit the patio. Next time.
Good fish tacos. Love the coating on the fish. Not a big fan of the creamy white sauce. Would prefer more Pico De gallo. Chips are kinda thick and the salsa wasn't real flavorful. Probably would not order them again. Very casual.
Let me just come right out and say that I LOVE Mexican food...like love. Like more than I could possibly love a human baby. That being said, I have been known to frequent any and every local Mexican food joint I could find pretty regularly. So when I'm sitting at home watching the Food Network and the Travel Channel and I see these the AMAZING looking food coming out of like these little Taco trucks, I say to myself "I want that".
Chips and salsa came out quickly and were...mind numbingly amazing. I mean like the freshest chips you can imagine, perfect amount of salt. And the salsa was completely unique and sublime. Amazing. Taco's came out soon after, and before I even took a bite, I knew what was about to happen. Visually, these were the fancy taco truck tacos I had yearned for...and the smell was...intoxicating.
