My husband ask our campground staff which restaurants they frequented in West Yellowstone. We didn't mean to start a controversy -- one woman from Texas loved the "taco bus." Another said, "Hot." As in good or temperature we asked? It turns out she thought the food was too spicy. A heated discussion followed. We decided to try it for ourselves.If... More

We stopped here based on other reviews and we weren't disappointed. The only thing keeping me from a score of five was that my husband stated his burrito was a little light on the meat. He absolutely loved the shredded beef tacos and my veggie burrito was fantastic. Check this place out!

Great Mexican food in an old bus) at an excellent price! I love the street tacos, yum,yum,yum. I have also had the enchiladas, fantastic. Perfect for a quick bite to eat!

Taqueria Las Palmitas, or more fondly "the Mexican Bus," is a family tradition now, whenever we visit our extended family in Montana. The locals eat there, the owners are fantastic, and the atmosphere is as welcoming as it is unique. They offer a wide selection of authentic dishes that have all exceeded our expectations. Two thumbs up for "the Bus"!

The food is good and reasonably priced. It is great that you can sit outside during good weather. It is a nice break from the other restaurants in town which are more expensive. Staff is friendly.

You might be wary of food served from an old school bus in a parking lot, but it was the best food we had on our Yellowstone trip! We read the reviews on TripAdvisor, and it was everything we hoped for. If the line is long, don't despair, it's because the food is worth it, and the line moves quickly.... More

Last year I opted for Chinese food while staying in West Yellowstone. This year my wife and I ate big on the Taco Bus. Good choice! I would choose great Mexican food over barely passable Chinese food any day. What a cool atmosphere, just watch your head if you are over 6 feet tall. We got the 6 taco platter... More

If you can get past eating on an old school bus and off of paper plates, the Mexican food is great and the cooks a real hoot. Plus the prices are very reasonable especially for a gouge the tourist place like West Yellowstone.
