KSAT's strawberry horchata feature

KSAT featured Taquitos El Jefe's loaded strawberry horchata in March 2024.

Starting with the service, from the lady who takes your order to the young man who hands you your order, the service is EXCEPTIONAL! The food is super delicious. We're hooked on the carne asada tacos with the green salsa and the strawberry mazapan horchata. I wish we were locals 😔 I tried the ceviche de camaron tostada today, and I was beyond impressed. It's a huge portion of ceviche topped with sliced avocado. The tosdadas come wrapped in foil so they don't get soggy and the salsa that comes…

I finally tried Taquitos El Jefe 3 and honestly the tacos were amazing. The prices are super affordable and you get a lot of food for what you pay. Everything tasted fresh, hot, and full of flavor, especially the street tacos. The service was fast and everyone there was really friendly. If you want good tacos without spending a lot of money, this is definitely one of the best spots in San Antonio.

Excellent!! I found these 3 food trucks on hwy 16, in front of Assured Auto Parts, after seeing them on texas eats! Strawberry Agua frescas dressed. And Birria quesedillas. So good and made to order, fresh and hot! Definitely worth stopping, worth the money, you get a good amount of food and the drink was huge!! there's something for everyone, even have seafood.

We love this taco truck. We've frequented this as we live right down the road. The tacos are delicious as well as the charro beans and rice too. Their mangonadas are delicious. I was greeted with a friendly smile and my order was taken quickly. It does take a bit for the food, but it's well worth the wait. They have a great new space now with lots of seating and parking.
