FOOD POP-UP: SOUTH SHORE TACO GUY

SOUTH SHORE TACO GUY is a popular authentic Mexican food business based on the South Shore of Massachusetts, specializing in fresh, scratch-made tacos, burritos, bowls, nachos, tamales, guacamole, and more. It started as a catering and pop-up operation in 2015, evolved into a food truck in 2017, and has been voted BEST FOOD TRUCK and BEST TACOS on the South Shore multiple years running.

The owner is Clint Smith, a California native and Air Force veteran who moved to Massachusetts in 1992. Unable to find authentic West Coast-style Mexican food locally, he drew from his roots to create his own – emphasizing simple, fresh ingredients, traditional preparation, and bold flavors reminiscent of California and Texas street tacos. Before this, Clint had extensive restaurant experience, including owning and managing spots like The Jury Room in Quincy and The Cellar in Abington.
