Maria's Taco Xpress

Most Necessary Restaurant Expansion

Argentinean beauty Maria Corbalan is the reigning taco queen of South Austin in our opinion. Her funky little taco trailer on South Lamar proved to be such a success that she had to expand into the Sugar & Spice General Store to stay ahead of the demand for her delicious tacos and other homestyle Mexican delights. Try her spicy picadillo or carne guisado wrapped in a divine homemade corn tortilla and you'll soon know why Maria's the queen. Hundreds of South Austin musicians can't be wrong.
