Find a Cheap Taco Lunch at El Chilango
January 11, 2018With hundreds of five-star reviews on Yelp as evidence, some people make the argument that one of the best-loved restaurants in Arlington is a taco truck. El Chilango, a food truck that’s usually parked near the intersection of 14th and Quinn, serves up authentic Mexican style tacos Mondays through Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The truck’s owner cheerfully greets regulars as he dishes up tacos on freshly-made corn tortillas. If you’re in a rush, you can get the tacos to go, but if you have the time, regulars say that the best way to enjoy El Chilango’s tacos is to order “for here” and eat your tacos at the attached bar-style counter. The truck is cash-only, but at El Chilango's prices ($2.50 per taco, aside from lengua tacos at $3) you shouldn’t need much.
