Overview

About This Establishment

The taco bus vibe hits West Yellowstone with crackly tortillas and fast, direct service. Pollo a la Diabla spits heat while Pollo al Ajo delivers garlicky heft; Camaron a la Diabla leans into brine and spice. Tacos and burritos hold their shape, while the outdoor setup invites you to grab a burrito and park it with a lawn chair across the street.

If I could, I would give 0 stars for the food, I have never eaten such tasteless and bad burrito and quesadilla. We ended by throwing away the whole thing and wasted $40 on food, I was not able to even chew chicken it was that bad. It looked like the chicken was pre packaged one from some superstore. No flavor at all. Don’t waste your money over here. Not worth it at all. I saw all the good reviews and decided to go but was disappointed.

Best Mexican food in Montana, we tried some fajitas from other places and it was unauthentic and plain bad. Real homemade tortillas here, delicious red and green chile, plenty of spice but not overpowering, I wasn’t quite sweating. I would recommend Al pastor and carnitas.

This is an excellent taco truck! The food is authentic and the salsas are great. The menu is huge, but somehow the service is still pretty quick. They have plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas to save you from the sun.
