  Came for a typical Mexican experience.
  
  5 stars is because it met expectations. Not the quality of food was 5 stars because I'm sure there are classy ones somewhere lol but this one is exactly what one would expect for a quick lunch.
  
  We expected this to be an Mexican experience and it was. Taste exactly how it was suppose to.
  
  I have to agree with the other reviewer that the Elotes are better grilled but they boil it here. It's still good.
  
  Prices are very reasonable. Mexican soda is the best because they don't put corn syrup in it. Just be careful, if there's rust around the cap, use a straw to drink it.
  
  Sopes was good, little greasy but that's expected.
  
  Overall expectations were met and that's rare.
  
  Had to wait an hour for the corn but that's because we arrived early 10:40am.

  Why 4 stars? Because the elote shined.

  I don't know why, but I just recently noticed this food truck near my house on Yelp. I am constantly looking around for new spots near me, but Tacos Mi rancho seemed to avoid me, until now.
  
  My wife actually picked up our food and brought it home for us, so I did not experience the in-person part of this exchange. What I can talk about is how it tasted :)
  
  I ordered three of the tacos supremos (fully-loaded tacos.) The carne asada was my favorite in the group, but to be honest, these tacos were pretty much just average and unremarkable. They tasted like every other taco from every other taco truck in the country. (FYI, I also ordered the pastor and the chicarron.) The latter two were a 3/5, while the carne asada was like a 3.2/5.
  
  My wife ordered the carne asada quesadilla and I liked hers much more. But to be honest, much like the tacos, they tasted like every other quesadilla that I've eaten in my life.
  
  So why 4 stars?
  
  The elote. I wish I could eat this daily. I've had elote before but I'm not sure any of them have been as perfect as this. I'm sure it's not that complicated to make, but whatever they do here really hit the spot for me. Maybe it's even as simple as the fact that the distribution of sauce/seasoning was exactly what it should be for every bite. I've definitely had it from other places where there's not enough to cover all the corn. Not here. Here, it was everything I've ever dreamed of.
  
  I'll check this truck out again in the future, but I'll order something besides tacos. And you know what else I'll be ordering. That sweet, sweet succulent elote.

  I eat tacos from here at least 2-3 times a week. I am absolutely addicted. They have the best tacos I've ever had and I've traveled all over the place, including the Southwest. Yes, my favorite tacos reside right here in Tampa at this little truck on N Dale Mabry. Such friendly service as well. You absolutely have to try their campechana (beef and sausage mix) taco.. it is out of this world flavor!

  This place is not getting the hype it deserves.  
  If I could hitch this to my car and bring it home with me I would.. locals definitely check this place out!
  
  I discovered this little food truck back in July. Truly authentic flavors, super friendly folks, and a chance to grab an anytime snack off the side of the road under a tent in Tampa: perfection.
  
  Hot salsas, delicious tostadas con queso fresco, tacos (traditional style or supremos), elotes, (occasionally menudo on weekends!) I mean, I could go on.
  
  I invited family that lives in the area to try it, having never heard of it, & it's safe to say they rated this food truck higher than any other they'd tried, calling it "authentic" and amazing and ordering extras to go. Sharing here is not allowed! Grab your own elote.

  Brief: An authentic taco spot with friendly service, a broad protein selection and great tacos!
  
  A little taco trailer on the side of Dale Mabry that is worth the stop. The tacos are made either authentic or gringo style (opt for the former) and have a wide variety of meat options (lengua/cabeza/pastor/campechana) to name a few. I got a good selection (this means 4) and a water and my bill was just under $10!  A bargain in my book.
  
  Food was made fresh to order and I tucked in.
  My two favorites were: Lengua/pastor/chorizo. Yea that's three...they were darn good.
  
  Sauces: They have a spicy red and fresh green...get both and use both...they work great together.
  
  Good portions of protein, a slice of lime for each taco, double perfectly cooked shells and a great price....what more could you ask for???
