| - Most food trucks can be a bit of a bear because you have to find them, and to find them you have to figure out how to find them. Is the schedule posted on Facebook? Instagram? Twitter? Elsewhere? When you do, and find out it was posted last week or at the beginning of the month, you have to wonder if it was up to date then, or if it's up to date now, or if the truck is even in business any longer.
Not the case with Nayarit. They are in business all day every day. They have tables. And a tent. They are parked next to a gas station (in case you need to fill up the car too). So there is no problem finding them or finding a place to sit. This isn't to say it's all going to be easy, however, because they do not speak great English. That's not all on them - there are certainly times we should speak other languages, and this is probably one of them.
Also, their menus are not great. Most of them items on the board are written in chalk and have a tendency to be blurred at best. So you may have to guess what you are ordering (tacos are probably a good bet, but they also have plenty of other things).
Once you order the food, you can also get drinks from the cooler immediately below and they will also offer sauce if you're interested - you might have to ask for this. On a hot day, you might want a couple of drinks, because it can take a while.
As to the food, be prepared because you don't get a number and they don't ask your name. They somewhat yell out what you ordered, but it's in a bit of a hispanic drawl, so you'll need to be listening. It's made worse by the traffic sound and the fact that the window is really small. You might also want to watch the people around you since orders typically seem to come out in the same order they went in. I say typically, because sometimes people come from vehicles on the other side of the truck to pick up an order and you had no idea they were even waiting. I don't know how this works. It's like call-ahead seating at those steakhouses, but you apparently have to be in the know here.
Eventually you will likely get your food, and the tacos are reasonable. They do seem to take a bit longer then expected since you're just getting a taco at a food truck. I'm all for freshly prepared food and all, but it just seems like it takes too long, but that could be me. If you were sitting in a restaurant it would probably be fine.
