The heating instructions on the box for these tacos are fairly straightforward: take a taco out of the bag, put it on a microwave-safe plate, microwave it on HIGH for 45 - 60 seconds, and let it stand for 1 minute. The tacos are a little small, so you might want to microwave more than one at a time. The more tacos you microwave on a plate, the longer you'll need to microwave them.
The tortilla on these street tacos from Costco was a soft corn tortilla, and the shredded pork on the inside was a little too salty for me. It was also pretty greasy. When I bit into it, it just dripped grease.
Overall, it was OK, but it wasn't that great. It was like your typical, inexpensive street taco.

REVIEW – Nuevo Grille Street Tacos from Costco (Frozen)
What a shame that Costco has discontinued! These are “The BEST” lil street taco’s we have ever had! I added cheese, cilantro, guacamole, sour cream and lime juice! Nothing on the market even compares!!
Has anyone found these recently? My son has been asking for them weekly for the last 2 years since Costco stopped carrying them.
EUREKA! ! ! I found them at a local Grocery Outlet (I’d never heard of this chain of stores) and also got some Nuevo Grill Chicken Quesadillas. I just got on the Internet and found this “Grocery Outlet.”
I live in Southern California and I was sad that my local Costco doesn’t carry them anymore! ): Does anyone know where else might have them near my area? Huntington Beach. Thanks!
These tacos are AMAZING!! They are filled with delicious pork….I don’t think your review does them justice. I have never had a frozen taco or burrito for that matter with as much meat inside. If you have tasted better, DO TELL!!!! Add lettuce, tomato and shreddded cheese and they are fantastic!!
I enjoy these for a qick dinner, I add shredded cheese, some taco sauce, and these are good, and yes, Costco on Thornydale in Tucson is not carrying these anymore. I did ask other buyers before picking up my first box, if they liked them, the answer 100% was YES, they are good, Please Costco, bring them back!
Costco in Las Vegas does not carry them anymore, does anyone know where else I can find them? Thanks
I really love these for a quick snack or 2 for a meal. I put the Cowboy Caviar from Trader Joes on them and it makes all the difference from dull to good. Tried to get them at Costco today and they were out. I was told they weren’t getting them back. Anyone know where I can get them?
I am trying to find them also. Hate it when you find something you like at Costco and then they quit carrying it.
I buy mine at Grocery Outlet.
Thanks Cynthia. I found an bought some at a local (San Marcos, CA) Grocery Outlet and also bought their Chicken Quesadillas to try them out.
Street tacos from Costco a double thumbs down. Plain tasting and don’t taste the same at the store. Don’t let them sucker you in. What a waste of money.
Just a heads up. I was able to purchase these last weekend at the Costco on Grant Rd Tucson.
I’m from Texas and live in Seattle, now. I love the StreetTacos! Great breakfast on the go, or, snack for TV viewing. I’ve traveled from Bellingham to Tacoma Costco stores to find a box. I’ll learn to buy as many boxes as I can get my hands on at the time.
Would like to get them back at Costco didn’t like the new chicken taco they have now…
These are great and I can’t get them at Costco anymore. Does anyone know where I can order them from?
how to cook instructions
I added the microwave instructions for the street tacos. Here is a link to the instructions on the box: http://images.grubpug.com/2013/costco_streettacos_ins.jpg
These Taco’s are great but Costco doesn’t carry them anymore. Does anyone know if they will carry them in the future?
I went to my local Costco yesterday (Tucson, AZ), and they had the street tacos there. I know sometimes I don’t see them, and then they are back again.
They may be a seasonal/rotational item and when they are stocked may depend on your region.
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I emailed Costco and to my surprise they responded with an email 3 days later. They said generally speaking that sometimes items don’t sell well and they discontinue them and other times the supplier doesn’t have enough of an item at a particular time so they won’t buy them.
When visiting my daughter in Olympia, Washington first tasted Street Tacos she had bought at a local Costco. I live in central coast California and checked with the local Costco in Gilroy, Calfiornia. hey have had them but didn’t know
if they would be getting any more, so my question in my area can I find out if any of the Costcos will be getting some. Thank you.
Just tried them at Cosco in Temecula CA, loved them but only took one box home just in case they did not tasted the same, i want more
Love them but can no long find in Costco
Love these tacos. Could not find at Costco anymore.
These are die for
I disagree totally, my daughter and I have many allergies and we love these!
