The beans lend a nice creamy texture to the shredded beef which is nice. I also sampled their beef & bean burrito ($3.50). We also tried the shredded beef Flautas (1- $1.75) – a flour tortilla stuffed with your choice of meat, then deep fried and smothered in sour cream and fresh veggies-they were delicious. The steak was perfectly cooked and loaded with caramelized onions and peppers and the fresh-made tortillas make them extra special. The Fajita plate comes with beans and rice and fresh cut avocado.
Though one of the more pricey items on the menu, you can make around five fajitas with what they give you, and that is way more than most popular Tex-Mex places provide. On our next visit, we tried the steak fajitas ($11.99). Even the tortilla chips are made from homemade corn tortillas made extra thick, so you get a hearty chip once they are deep fried. You can tell that everything is made from scratch, using the freshest ingredients. We also ordered the salsa ($1.99) and guacamole ($2.99) with chips. I will need a third trip just to try them all. Since the menu is Al a cart, you can order one of each to try. Each taco came with super fresh lettuce and tomatoes and a nice sprinkle of queso fresco. The ground beef taco was spiced just right. The Carne Asada steak was flavorful and the shredded beef was moist and tender. The chicken was all white meat and very juicy. Our first visit, we ordered a selection of their tacos to try since they are famous for them. Most people order from the walk-up window and eat at one of the picnic tables. The main location on Lake Worth Road has a small dining room in the bright yellow building and they also still serve from the food truck parked just on the other side of the asphalt outdoor eating area. I also was hesitant to eat there for many years, even though I drove by it all the time. In fact, you may avoid eating there because of its first impression. We visited Tacos Al Carbon on two occasions, so we could ensure we got to sample a good chunk of the extensive menu.
What draws the long lines and fills the outdoor dining area night and day is the authentic Mexican cuisine made with fresh ingredients and adhering to traditional recipes. Tacos Al Carbon began as a Mexican food truck parked behind the Jiffy Lube on the corner of Lake Worth Road and Military Trail and grew in to an impressive foodie wonderland with a real restaurant right next to the original truck and several locations around Palm Beach County.
