taco cart

Mobile Mexican food

A taco cart is a wheeled food stand selling tacos and related Mexican fare, typically operated by a single vendor on streets or at events.

Unlike food trucks, taco carts are usually smaller, simpler setups—often just a flat-top grill, some prep space, and an umbrella: The best tacos in the city come from the cart outside the bar.
