I enjoy the Don Toño's food truck on Glenstone, on the parking lot in front of the Japanese Market next to the Walmart Neighbourhood Market.

I've heard from people more familiar with Mexican culture than myself that Don Tono's is authentic. I really appreciate that. Their food is fire.

You might try Mexico. I've heard the street tacos there are fairly authentic.

Sure if I was in Mexico🙄

OOOHHH, you meant in Springfield! Tacos El Gordo is pretty good.

Thanks dad!

I Love Tacos! They have a brick and mortar on East Chestnut, and I believe the food truck is on West Chestnut

Tacos el Gordo has good ones, there’s two locations, but if you’re willing to drive, down highway 65 before Branson in Saddlebrooke there’s Taqueria El Camino in a gas station and they’re amazing

"Dad, can you make me a sandwich?"

"Poof, you're a sandwich!"

"Daaaad, I'm hungry!"

"Nice to meet you Hungry, I'm dad!"

"DAAAAAAAD! I'm serious!!!!"

"I thought you said you were Hungry!"

I didn't understand why my dad thought this was so funny until I did it to my son.

Tacos El Champu. You won’t regret it. Also, amazing birria tacos

I go there often and I like it but I don’t understand what takes so long. All the fillings are already cooked. Shouldn’t it just be slap it in some tortillas and add the toppings?

I agree with you. Sometimes I'm in and out and sometimes I'm sitting for a bit.

Los michoacanos is good

Yeah, there are a ton of options for authentic street tacos in Springfield now, but this is one of the best.

Brothers Tacos is really good!

I’ve had all mentioned at this point and Brothers is for sure my go to

What sort of people downvote properly applied dad jokes? You have my upvote sir. Have it and go with god!

Also, Tacos El Gordo is the correct answer.

Taqueria Cachanilla

This is the only right answer in this thread.

Tortilleria perches

Just the worst sort of people. People who use speakerphone in public. People who think Van Halen was better with Sammy Hagar. People who applaud in movie theaters.

Came here to say this! And Friday they are only $1.25 each

Don Tono

DON TONOS!! Tell em fluffy dumper sent ya, they'll charge ya double.

El ranchito sabores de Mexico off glenstone tastes like so-cal street tacos

I've tried to eat there twice, but with my lunch break and the amount of people I see already waiting I just roll over to Subway instead.

Drive south west for a few hours

Second tortillarilla

They get a ton of business. You can call in an order

Same! Their location in Nixa is the best. El Tejada or something like that.

Yeah. Get back to Montrose where you belong, ya frizzy haired freak!

And now I'm going to try and drink away my shame for loving For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge...

I love tacos!

Depends on what kind of street tacos you're looking for. Your "typical" authentic street taco (corn tortilla, meat of some type, onion, cilantro, lime) is going to be Elotes Don Tono or Tacos El Gordo, your Tijuana style birria taco would be Tacos El Champu but I wouldn't call that a street taco personally. It's still good, don't get me wrong.

Easy. Cesar Old Mexico and El Champu Taco Truck.

Cesar got the best pastor and lengua I ever had! The lengua taco literally taste like pho on a tortilla.. simply phenomenal! And Champu has amazing Birria by far the best I had in town, so cheesy.

Their birria tacos are good, I'd say on par with the stuff I've had in TJ. But you should try actual birria at some point. The tacos are good, but birria is a whole experience especially if it's made the way it's supposed to be. With goat, not beef.

It's not a hard recipe, but difficult to perfect. I've tried to impress my friends back home but they're always like "nah, it's missing something" but never can explain what it is.

pho on a tortilla? I'll have to check that out, I'm cautiously skeptical but I'll keep an open mind :)

This would make sense (to explain the delay) if while sitting there there were tons of orders going out ahead of mine. It's usually just one or maybe two folks ahead of me when I go.

It's not going to stop me from going and I might start ordering ahead. My lunch destination though is often made at a whim while on the road. :)
