  • Chicken & Rice Guys

    2723 Yale St. Heights

    203-305-5431

    When we opened our first food truck back in 2012, we had one goal: introduce you nomivores to the ridiculously delicious world of chicken and rice. With high quality ingredients, alluring aromas, and the seduction of self-saucing, we knew our halal grub would be a hit. So far, we’ve launched a fleet of trucks, multiple restaurants, and a thriving catering business. Our next step? World domination! Just kidding. But we are working hard to find the next eating experience that will take over your world. Burger-Pizza-Burrito, we’re coming for you, buddy… And thanks to you, we’re growing—so it’s only fair that we return the favor. We focus on hiring locally, nurturing our employees, and giving back to our community through local organizations.

  • Good Dog Hot Dogs

    Mobile Heights

    832-800-3647

    When you see Good Dog's baby-blue-and-white food truck with cheerful red and gold lettering parked next to a coffee shop, museum or bar, it's hard not to pull over immediately and get your hands on one of its signature hot dogs. All of the condiments are handmade, the soft buns are from Slow Dough and the specially blended franks themselves are a savory mixture of 85 percent beef and 15 percent pork (all-beef and tofu dogs are also available). But it's the combination of all these items into fun, creative hot dogs that makes Good Dog special: Try the Sunshine Dog with cream cheese, dill relish and pickled red onions or the Guac-a-Dog topped with avocado, jalapeño, tomatoes, onions, roasted garlic aiolo, cilantro, cumin and lime.

  • Melange Creperie

    403 Westheimer Montrose

    832-724-9464

    Melange is street food in a city not known for that style of dining - combine that with quality ingredients and attention to detail, and it's easy to see why it's become so popular so quickly. Every morning, the affable and talkative Sean (this is a one-man operation) picks up some fresh ingredients, draws the day's menu on a chalkboard and sets up shop in the parking lot of Mango's bar and music venue. Standards like banana and Nutella, and ham and cheese are almost always available, and daily specials often include creative crepes like fig and goat cheese, and falafel. Each crepe is made to order, so the line can move slow - bring water if it's hot out, or stop by the taco truck next door for a watermelon water.

  • Tacos Mayra Taco Truck

    10510 Beechnut St. Outer Loop - SW

    832-875-3904

    This colorful taco truck located in front of a washateria near Alief dishes up some super-tasty tacos. What sets Tacos Mayra apart from its competitors is that there's no scooping of pre-made filling onto a taco shell when you order here. All the fillings are finished on the grill, which means you will have to wait for your tacos to be done. The piping-hot tacos are oh-so-satisfying every time. The pastor tacos are well-marinated and flavorful. The lengua is juicy and tender, the chicharron are fatty and decadent, and the barbacoa is hearty and melts in your mouth. Order your carnes on flour tortillas with everything on it (grilled onions and fresh cilantro), add some spicy salsa verde and prepare to take a trip to Mexico for just $1.50 each.

  • Tacos Tierra Caliente

    2003 W. Alabama Lower Shepherd-Kirby

    713-584-9359

    This popular taco truck, usually parked at the corner of the West Alabama Icehouse, is a go-to spot for many chefs working in the area, chefs who praise the tasty, Mexican-style tacos for great preparation and fresh ingredients. Though the lengua and barbacoa tacos are most often cited as the things to order, Tierra offers the full complement of pastor, chicharron, pollo, and more, as well as quesadillas and tortas. Beware of the hot sauce, which is really spicy. Recently named one of the 10 Best Foodie Spots in Houston in USA Today, the truck is open until 11 p.m. on most nights, the perfect pit stop for a quick bite and a beer.
