North Lamar · Austin, TX
Hey there — pull up a chair.
Your table's ready.
We're El Tianguis, Austin's favorite outdoor food truck park. Grab a spot under the string lights, dig into something delicious from one of our rotating local trucks, and let the good times roll.
Our Story
More than a place to eat — it's a place to be.
El Tianguis started with a simple idea: Austin has some of the best food in the country, so why not bring the trucks together in one spot where people can actually hang out?
We opened our gates on North Lamar to celebrate that Texas spirit of community, flavor, and good company. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch between meetings or settling in for a relaxed evening with friends, there's always something happening here.
No dress code. No reservations. Just real food from real local cooks, served outside under the sky.
What's Cooking
Our food trucks rotate regularly, but here's the kind of flavor you'll find
From breakfast tacos at dawn to late-night bites after the show — there's always a truck firing up something delicious.
Mexican & Tacos
Al pastor, carnitas, quesadillas — the flavors of Mexico on North Lamar. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner done right.
Texas BBQ & Smokies
Brisket that melts in your mouth, sausage links, and all the Texas smoke you can handle. Served with sides that hit different.
Vegan & Fresh
Plant-based doesn't mean boring. Think loaded bowls, fresh wraps, and creative dishes that even non-vegans obsess over.
Global Flavors
Korean-Mexican fusion, Thai curries, Jamaican jerk — Austin's international flavor scene, all in one parking lot.
