Taco Plugz, a food truck bringing a California twist to the local taco scene, is now open in New Braunfels.

About the owner

Alex Holguin, along with his wife and three boys, recently moved to New Braunfels from San Diego.

“I've cooked my whole life,” Holguin said. “We decided to bring a different flavor out here to New Braunfels.”

Holguin aims to introduce a California twist to the local taco scene, he said.


“We're from San Diego, so we marinate a little different, our seasonings are different, it's just a different cuisine,” Holguin said.

Must-try menu items

Holguin said Taco Plugz’s menu features California-style cuisine that his family wants to introduce to New Braunfels.

Some items from the menu Holguin recommends include:
  • Carne asada fries
  • California burrito
  • Potato tacos
  • Potato flautas
“We don't like to skimp on anything,” Holguin said. “If it's not something we would eat, we wouldn't sell it.”
