"I had a chorizo taco… it was the best taco I have had in ALL of Texas and I’ve lived everywhere in TX for the past 3 years. 🔥 🌮"

"Ordered from CJ's today, based on the insanely high reviews I figured I'd give it a try. Ordered a chicken burrito with avocado. The burrito was the size of a football, and the entire thing was refried beans. Just mouthfuls of refried beans, could not taste or see any other ingredient besides lettuce. I also noticed an off-putting chemical taste, which I can only assumed is coming from a kitchen rag that is continuously wiping the work area. Just a really awkward and disappointing experience. Took two bites and right in the trash. I'm not sure what is going on with the reviews on Google, all three locations are 4.8 stars kind of suspect. Will not be ordering again."

"4.9 stars is not enough. 10 stars. The best taco truck I’ve ever had. The quesabirria and ramen birria are undefeated. I plan on trying the whole menu. I’m not sure I could try any other food truck in thicket park and not regret passing on CJ tacos. And CJ is a cool guy. Update: I wish I could make 2 separate reviews. I’m coming back to update CJ since I found his truck. He is a master at his craft. The prices are so reasonable. I finally decided to try the spicy ramen birria and it’s just the perfect spice. The lime cuts the meat and oil perfectly. Warm to the heart, even on a hot Texas day. Usually you keep going to a place and sort of get used to the taste. Not here. Every bite still amazes me. Best truck on the planet."

"CJs tacos are the best!!! This is my new regular spot. Definitely try his HOME MADE corn tortillas, they are so fresh and don’t fall apart."

"CJ’s makes the best breakfast tacos I’ve ever had. Not just in Austin, anywhere. What sets them apart is they actually understand food. The eggs are cooked right, never rubbery. Each ingredient is chosen with care. The balance only comes from someone who genuinely cares about what they’re putting in front of you."

"That lady in the front was rude. Cancelled the order for something that they didn't have. Kept telling that she doesn't have the order and not acknowledging that she cancelled it. 🤦‍♂️ That owner need to find someone to run the shop!"

"Worst burrito ever. Wayyyyyy too much refried beans. The salsas they give you are both so spicy I couldnt even eat them. Plus they are cream based salsas but the burrito has a ton of sour cream in it already. Literally a pool of grease in the burrito. And it wasnt layered right, all the beans were on top all the meat at the bottom. Yeah threw it away couldnt even enjoy it. And idk the chick at the front was not that friendly. Not a good experience"

"You have to try their Migas tacos (skip the Serrano peppers if you don’t like spicy) or the Quesabirria tacos! Mary is the absolute best too!"

"Birria tacos were very good. During busy hours, parking can be tight. I got my food to go; there are picnic tables to sit. If you pay by credit card, 3% additional cost is added to the bill."
