A family kitchen,
opened to you.
Taquería Nueva Unión started as a small food truck in Lakewood with one goal: bring real, honest Mexican food to our neighborhood. Every salsa is made by hand, every tortilla is pressed fresh, and every plate carries a piece of home.
From breakfast burritos before sunrise to quesabirria tacos late into the night — we cook the food we grew up loving, and we'd love to share it with you.
What our familia
says about us.
"Delicious tacos — the quesabirria with consomé is outstanding. Great service and high-quality authentic Mexican food. Will absolutely keep coming back."
"Absolutely incredible. Bold and fresh flavors — the tacos were perfectly seasoned and the smothered burrito was next-level delicious. You can tell it's made with love."
"These are amazing tacos! The tamale was very good. This place definitely serves authentic tacos that are absolutely delicious and worth the stop. Yum!"
