Reviews for El Alebrije (Food Truck) in Houston, TX

Excellent customer service, food is very authentic and delicious. If you like real Mexican food at an affordable price, then you... should try this place. This food has the same style as Xochil from Hugo's restaurant chain. Read more

Pretty good eats! I had tacos and the beef fries!!

It was really good and meat was cooked fresh! Definitely will be going back

My first time trying this place, I love Oaxaca food and this Tlayuda with chapulines (grasshoppers) was amazing! Very authentic... so flavorful, big serving and fast service. For sure I?ll be coming back soon for more. Read more

The food was good quality. But it left you wanting some else.... flavor. You could get the same flavors at Papasitos or any... place like that. For the price its nothing unique. We had the tacos and nachos. Maybe some of their other items are better. Read more

This food is divine to say the least folks! My partner found El Alebrije food truck which is authentic ?Oaxacan Street Food? & I... am grateful that she did. Do not let the small food truck deceive you, other than my mom?s food, this the best food I have triedthat is heavenly in every bite I took. They offer animal proteins, vegetarian options, & vegan options. All of their ingredientsthey use are fresh & pack a distinctive flavor to each of their meals. They offer tortillas which are hand made, nothing beatsthat! They offer green & red salsas that are, of course, made from scratch. What did you expect? The red is spicy & the green ismild. This is my second time placing them a visit in a week & it has been a delightful experience. Their menu is versatile asthey offer menu items I had never heard off. I tried a Picadita with Huitlacoche & another one with Flor de Calabaza which weresavory in flavor to say the least. The service is phenomenal along with the owners who are extremely generous! I literally can?twait to return, as it is extremely difficult to find delicious food now & days. I definitely would suggest for everyone to cometry them out, you will NOT be disappointed!! Read more

We visit the food truck at Under the Radar Brewery. Great food and great pairing with the brewery. We ordered tlayuda con... chorizo, tlayuda with cecina, huarache de fajita, quesadilla de pollo and to go we had an order of molletas. The portions werebig. The salsa was on point and the staff was very friendly. My little cousins both stated ?they were good?. We highly recommendthis fantastic food truck. Read more

I dont know why this place doesn't have more reviews and why I haven't heard of it until now because this food truck is... amazing. The food truck is tucked away in a lot right beside a white gas station/convenience store along with another foodtruck so it is a little bit hard to find, but you definitely don't want to miss out on it. They specialize in authentic Oaxacanstreet food and offer it at an incredibly affordable price fresh-to-order ($2 tacos!!), which is great for those looking to trysomething new and unique from the ubiquitous Tex-mex. I'm actually pretty surprised by the wide variety of options they offer,and I'm looking forward to trying them all out over the next few trips I take here. As my wife is pretty particular about hertortas, she ordered a customized El Chavo torta which the food truck owners readily accommodated. As more of a taco guy myself,I ordered suadero, beef, barbacoa, chicken mole, and carnitas tacos with agua de Jamaica to wash it all down. The food wasphenomenal and the flavor was on point. Unlike a lot of other tacos I've had in Texas, the meat was juicy and packed with flavor(not greasy at all), the tortillas were hand-made, and there were GENEROUS mounds of meat served between TWO tortillas for eachtaco. They also provided some crunchy sliced radishes, lime wedges, and two salsas: a very spicy, creamy, smooth red sauce(spicy and savory) and a light mild acidic tomatillo sauce. They elevated the tacos to a whole other level. All the tacos weregood, but I have to say that the barbacoa and suadero were my personal favorites. The barbacoa had an incredible depth of flavorand was crazy tender and juicy while not greasy. The bits of suadero had nice and crispy edges and a tender juicy center. Thesalsas were essential - next time I'll have to add a few more. I could probably use the red one on anything. I didn't get tohear what my wife thought of the torta because she scarffed it down pretty quickly and instantly went int Read more
