The Papillion Taco Guy

This place is the Home of Yummy & highly Delish food! Seriously, smoked meat taco...uummm Yeah!! I Loved the smoked pulled meat of chicken tacos. But he has smoked beef brisket & smoked pork too. This is a place, one Must experience to enjoy what true "Yum" really tastes like.

I'm back with another review my fellow Foodies.. I have heard about this place but I had never stopped in, but today when I picked up my wife she looked at me and said I want a taco, so we decided to give the Taco Guy a try.. This isn't carne asada or al pastor or lengua.. It is a fusion of two cultural icons, tacos and smoked meat. What we have here is classic Americana smoked meat, it is done to perfection with absolutely mouth-watering amazing flavors, it is then put on a heated taco shell and topped with deliciousness. The chicken, the pork, the brisket, this is perfection and if you follow me you know I love Smoked Meats, and I can be pretty critical, with that said, hands down this is some of the best I've ever eaten. This gentleman has a very interesting backstory, it is like his life let him down this very specific path but then gave him some hurdles to overcome as we all suffered with during covid. This isn't some fast food chain, this is an individual with a dream that came to fruition. I have always been a huge supporter of buying local, if you are in the area, especially if you were one of my Google followers, go try all three tacos and see what you think. And if you're not following me on google, get on board. LOL I will go back and get some better quality video in the near future, we ate in the car and that is not conducive to good quality photography.

Love, love, love these tacos. I also live in Mexico so I have access to the best of the best tacos. And these tacos are amazing. While not traditional, these fusion tacos have flavors of smoked meats, Italian inspired sauce and a South African hot sauce for some extra kick all on a slightly crispy tortilla. It was perfection. I was blown away. These are a must have experience!

The food was real good. We got 3 brisket and cheese tacos and fries with a soda. The tacos come loaded but we kept the simple since we shared with my son. The fries were a hit. They were perfect and the seasoning was outstanding. The service was fast and friendly. Everything seemed clean and in order.

So the store is small. But don't let that discourage you. These taco pack a huge flavor. I walked in and my mouth just watered. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the tacos are. Mixture of sweet and savory just the right amount. It's a tad pricey for my budget so sadly I won't be able to get them as often as I'd like. But it's worth every penny. This place is a hidden gem in papillion.

I stopped in for the first time today and decided to try out the 3 brisket tacos and I'm so glad I got three of them. The tacos were amazing and had tons of flavor each bite had me coming back for more. I asked for their hot hot sauce which was some type of African pepper and it just elevated my experience and brought out just the right amount of heat i was looking for. I highly recommend The Papillion Taco Guy you won't be disappointed.

I have been wanting to try TPTG for months now and finally stopped in this afternoon. 10/10 for me! I tried the chicken, pork, brisket and the jackfruit tacos and WOW. So delicious. The house made hot sauce was unique and flavorful. The meat... was it smoked? However it was prepared, it was tender and tasty. I will definitely be a repeat customer and tell my friends/ family. Thank you for providing our community with great food!

I’ve driven past this spot for at least six months—maybe even a year—and I seriously regret not stopping sooner. For around 14, I got three tacos with different meats, and every single bite was worth it. Their hot-hot sauce was chunky with a sweet, smoky tang that hit just right. This food was DANK. I’ll absolutely be back!
