Taco’s Monte Alban

Best taco truck in the area. They have a huge menu with tacos, burritos, tostadas, flautas, tortas, enchiladas, nachos, lots of snack foods, and a ton of sodas, energy drinks, and water bottles as well as juice for the kiddos. They even have a kids menu! Super friendly. They are a local family that puts a lot of love into their cooking. The best part are the fresh vegetables that they always have on their items. Lots of extras such as guacamole, salsa (2 – 3 freshly done kinds), crema (sour cream, but the good stuff), slices of lime, a small salad with your items, grilled onions made fresh when you arrive, and sometimes they even have these awesome grilled jalepeños. They make sure to remember their regular customers too. I have seen them at the Evergreen State Fair, Snohomish Lacrosse events, kids baseball events, city festivals, Flying Heritage Collection events in Everett, and they are always super nice with great quality food no matter where they travel to. They have a Facebook page to keep you updated on where they are.

Who knew that Snohomish had such an awesome Taco Truck. Located just across the street from Harvey Field! We are new customers and are definitely coming back.
The food is authentic and fresh!
The service is full of smiles!
La cocina mexicana fue absolutamente deliciosa

I’ve given this place 3 attempts. The tacos aren’t too bad. The enchiladas, on my second trip, were watery, bland, and Luke warm, and didn’t taste good to me. Today I got the nachos. The marinated pork was good, as were the beans. My objections begin in that they present with what is to be a huge amount of food for 6 dollars. The problem is that it’s a huge pile of chips with only the toppings right on top. So it looks bigger than it really is. I would have been just fine with 35 – 40 percent of the chips they use because that’s about the amount it would be for a honest balance given the amount of toppings (lots of plain chips in the trash). Also, the posted menu states that it comes with sour cream (crema), and a guacamole sauce. I could barely tell that they put those sauces on it, nor was there enough to taste either of those toppings. The spice and flavor were fine but I was looking for the spice to be balanced at least a tad by the sour cream and guacamole sauce. It’s kind of hard to balance with the severely skimpy portions, almost non-​existent amount, of those sauces. One can only guess that chips are cheap, and so are beans, so that’s why there are more of those toppings, and much less meat, cheese, and did I mention the almost non-​existent sauces? The biggest offense to me was the laughable amount of sauce. There are other similar places around that would much more satisfy, so it’s doubtful I’d return here after 3 fair attempts. I wanted to like this place, and that’s probably why I gave it this last chance. 3 strikes and you’re out!
