LA ESQUINA FOOD TRUCK

Just East of downtown, you’ll find a neighborhood favorite, La Esquina Food Truck. It is best known for their tasty breakfast and lunch tacos with choice of corn or flour tortillas. We recommend the breakfast taco with potato, egg, and cheese with the option of adding beans or more cheese. La esquina means ‘the corner’ in Spanish so yes, this food truck is on the corner of Hunt St. and Harrisburg Blvd. complete with an outdoor patio for diners to enjoy their meal.
