    We tried the taco tour (six tacos, you get to try every type of meat and tortilla that they offer!) and every single one was excellent but we particularly enjoyed the chilaco with shrimp, quesabirria, and of course the delicious fry bread. Perfect for two people to share. And such friendly and welcoming staff! Couldn’t ask for more. We also enjoyed a beer at Fossil Craft Beer Company, where the food truck is located on Saturdays.

    This food truck is amazing! They ship all their ingredients in from New Mexico and only use the highest grade. Nothing comes from a can or has any preservatives. The owner of the food truck is absolutely amazing when it comes to his customer service. He took the time to show us every single picture of what was on the menu as the menu wasn’t finalized yet. He used his own phone. We sat and laughed and waited for a food. The food was fantastic! My daughter loved the cucumber mint drink. Highly highly recommended!

    I wasn’t hungry but these guys did a great job drawing you in. And I’m sure glad I followed my gut. I had the shrimp taco on fry bread and sweet fry bread. Both were outstanding! I generally don’t love food trucks but this one I will track down for more food!

    We went here for my birthday and it was amazing! The owner Ricky, went out of his way to explain the menu and made recommendations that we should try. He and his brother, who does a lot of the cooking, were very friendly and made my birthday special. We had the fantastic four tacos, native style, and the shrimp taco (chilaco) was out of this world! We also had sweet fry bread, agua fresca, montezumas, and the native noodle soup I forgot the name of. Everything was very fresh and made from scratch. We will definitely be coming back here!

    I didn’t expect the Native Grill food truck to be as amazing as it was. The food and the service were amazing. The cooked-to-order food is some of the best we had in Colorado Springs. We had be the lamb quesabirria and the Al pastor, which was the best we’ve ever had. The service, too, was 10/10.
