I went here late night for the 1st time, I actually stopped at one near Broadway but they were cash only. Oh well because it led me to a gold mine, everything I had tasted good and was seasoned very well. They had very reasonable prices which was a nice feeling, because some of these food truck prices . Very good dinner from here, definitely will have to come again with my family and try more of the menu items.

Taco Lab is brewing up some tasty eats. Always an enthusiast for food trucks I was tickled pink to find this eatery on wheels just down the road. Culinary “mad” scientist Enedino “Nino” Morales is the brain behind this experiment bringing his cooking skills from his state of Guerrero, Mexico. Living now in Rochester for the past 15 years he has fine tuned his love for food and his natural talent for creating new flavors. With 8 Lab Specialties, 7 Lab Basics, a couple small eats, drinks and cheesecake one certainly has a choice. Our first was the Kung Fu Chicken with three crispy wonton shells filled to overflowing with chunky, crispy chicken, house slaw, corn pico and lab aioli. Fresh, plenty of ingredients seasoned to make every mouthful enjoyable. Simple presentation in a carry-out container. Our side was the Doriloco, taco in a bag, loaded with ground beef, lettuce, shredded cheese, corn pico, salsa, lab sauce and cilantro. Carry out seems to be the norm but nearby tables with umbrellas are available.

Wow! Traveling through and stopped for lunch. The food was delicious and the workers were very kind. There was a bit of a wait but it was worth it. Food was hot and delicious.

Love Taco Lab! Great people, excellent service, and amazingly delicious food! My Wife and I will definitely be back more than just again, and we highly recommend! Try the Devil’s Tree sauce if you’re looking for a little more spice in life!

as soon as we placed our order, they got pretty busy quickly! they still got our order of 2 elote & shrimp tacos/ chicken quesadilla out super fast! Elote was beyond delicious, i got the shrimp tacos they were good but i didn’t like the slaw that was in the tacos. they were still very yummy though! (i definitely would like to try another item next time.) my brother got a chicken quesadilla which included rice / beans / guacamole / lettuce which he loved. payed about $35 for everything but super worth it. will definitely be back☺️

Taco lovers MUST TRY.. We ordered Kung Fu chicken, Quesabirria and The Bait. Everything was exceptional. So flavorful and everything had a nice kick to it. Portions were amazing for a reasonable price.We will be going back again over and over again!

Good place to get late night eats. Ordered the quesabirria after staff recommended it as the most popular item. They give you a beeper while they make your food so you can go wait in your car if it’s especially chilly outside ☺️ But, the food was super tasty and it’s easy to see why it’s the most popular item.

Amazing food!! I’m about an hour from Rochester so when their food truck makes it over to me I jump on that. My favorite is the Kung Fu Chicken. Although the last time I ordered it I didn’t get Wanton Shells. It came on a tortilla. I hope that was just because they were out because the Wanton Shells made it delicious!

Taco Lab is one of my favorite taco trucks around town. There are a lot of good ones but I really like the options they have as well as the street corn! The street corn is one my favorite dishes and I am not sure of anywhere else that has it! Definitely recommend!
