About us

We were awarded the Best Traditional Taco Award at Tacolandia by the Dallas Observer!

Our name is Carlos and Carla Rodriguez, and we are twins. In Veracruz Mexico, our hometown, Cuates means twins. Our passion has always been food. This started in Veracruz watching our abuela and abuelo make queso (the real kind), barbacoa, empanadas and homemade tortillas. Immigrating to the United States, our passion for food has continued. We have always been in the restaurant business including our parents. After much encouragement from friends and family who have tried our food, our family decided to take the plunge and start a food truck! So here you have it! Cuates Kitchen! It's family run, and I dare say the best Mexican food in Dallas. We serve authentic Veracruz food of which we think our abuelos would be proud. Come check us out or have us cater your next event. You won't be disappointed!
