There's a little hole-in-the-wall in Overland Park, KS (105th & Metcalf,) that is said to serve food that is exactly what you'd expect from street taco vendors.
When you pick up your order, all you get is meat on tortillas. The condiment bar has a few different salsas, chopped onions and cilantro, and lime wedges.

Wanting some local fare, we walked up the hill away from the main strip along the ocean and found a local taco place, or so we thought. Open-air (no roof yet) and benches to eat on. We were the only anglos there. I stood in front of the menu puzzled at main item, Los Perrones. No mention of tacos.
Perro is dog. Dog meat, I thought? My Spanish is pretty good but I could tell this was a local colloquialism that I might not understand unless it was explained to me. After questioning the guy at the counter, he explained it that these weren't just any tacos at his joint but peronnes, which means the big dogs, as in the best tacos in town. And boy, were they ever good. Delicious.
I realized it was like going into McDonald's to get a hamburger and coming out with a Big Mac instead.
