Taqueria San Martin - Nashville: Reviews & Ratings
The chicken tacos were great. The tacos were simple but delicious, with tender chicken and just the right amount of lime and spicy cilantro sauce. Quality ingredients and flavor.
Just ate here for the first time. Wife had tacos(asado & carnitas) and I went with sopes (pastor, chorizo, & tongue). They were all delicious! Services was fast and very affordable! Will definitely be back.
Great people and even better food. Me and my fiancée have been going consistently for months and have never been disappointed. Tacos de Pastor and Agua de Sandia are some of the best we've had in the States and our go-to items. It's definitely a must try if you are in the area.
Overall good experience here, especially friendly and quick service. Tacos were decent, with a good amount of meat. The carne asada was good, but unfortunately I though both the al pastor and carnitas were fairly dry and was not as flavorful as other taquerias in the area. Salsa was a highlight, both the salsa cremosa and the salsa roja were delicious and very spicy, especially the roja. Solid tacos overall, but not at the top of my list.
These were some good tacos I’ve had in a while. My absolute favorite was the BBQ taco, it was packed with so much flavor and so juicy! The steak taco (tender) was good as well as the pollo (it was ok) but the BBQ taco was the highlight of the meal. I also ordered a asada quesadilla and it was delicious with the green sauce. I wish I was given more limes. The tortillas was dry but when you top it with the sauce everything came together. Very clean food truck! Was impressed on the cleanliness for it to be located outside a gas station. 9.2/10
