Taco Boys is located in south Phoenix Arizona. They serve tacos al carbon. That translates to meat over fire. It’s actually mesquite charcoal fire.

They keep bags of the mesquite charcoal under the counter that you order at.

They offer carne asada, pollo (chicken), tripe, cabeza (beef cheek), pastor (pork), barbacoa (beef). You pick well packed street sized tacos in either four or corn tortillas. They also offer vampiros (grilled crispy with cheese), burros, and quesadillas.

This isn’t a fancy place but you come for the food. You can see that they don’t have a cocktail bar here. Beverages offered are sodas, horchata (Mexican rice/milk cinnamon), beers, micheladas (Mexican beer cocktails), and bottled water.

Most of the seating is indoors but a few outside tables are on the side of the building by the parking lot.

A few tables are also to the left side of the front door.

It can get busy in a second here.

You order and try to find a table. They ask you to pay when you are done.

While you are waiting you can make a plate of toppings and sauces for your tacos.

Our order is ready.

Between us we tried all the tacos except for tripe. Everything is good and nothing lacks flavor or is dry so that is a win!

Here are the beef tacos that they offer.

Upper left is barbacoa. It’s flavored nicely and is tender and very succulent. It’s something like a stewed beef cube…

Upper right is the cabeza (beef cheek) This one is very tender with nice developed flavor.

Lower beef taco is the carne asada. It’s tender enough and does have a nice mesquite flavor to it. It is a very good taco.

The flour tortilla tacos are grilled to sort of crispy.

The corn tortilla tacos are best suited for the saucy meats and double shelled like in Mexico.

We were surprised that the Mexican Style beans are spicy and very soupy today. They lack whole beans today. They might have chorizo in them.

Everything we tried was good so that means……

Taco Boys are Worth a Fork!
