“ Our go to taco place when we are at the lake. When they make them right the brisket nachos are amazing also. We've seen some fluctuation in the quality though. Always friendly and they will bring it out to your car when its ready. Pricy for a small town but worth it ”

“ From Houston to Wells, these mini street tacos were worth the pit stop in Trinity. 5 brisket and 5 chicken, fresh onion & cilantro were gone in a flash! Don’t let the little yellow building fool you, it puts out AMAZING flavor. Can’t wait to try more from the menu. And the $3 snow cones a walk across the street was a hit with the kids. ”
“ If you're in Trinity, you have to stop at Tacos by the Trax. It is hands down some of the best authentic Mexican food in the area. I tried the Birria tacos, and they were incredible. The meat was tender and juicy, and the flavor was spot on—especially when you dip them in the consommé. The steak street tacos were just as good, seasoned perfectly and served the right way with fresh onions, cilantro, and great salsa. Definitely a hidden gem. Great food, good portions, and friendly service. Highly recommend! ”
“ Some of the best tacos and avocado bowl I've ever had! I really enjoyed this stop had came up in a semi whipped it over there they got a picnic table I sat at and enjoyed my lunch. Worth the stop. 26$ was a little steep but for how good it was I didn't mind. ”
