I love this little place. The food is yemmy and the staff is very lovely. Its a little taco truck so you either eat the food to go, at the little table they have in front of the truck or in your car! I think paying with card is a little extra as well but its not a crazy surcharge. The al pastor with the pineapple is great but my favorite is anything with lengua. The salsa verde they make is phenomenal. I always ask for extra and keep it in my fridge for later lol. Overall a great little taco truck i love to frequent

Again, it's TACO TUESDAY! We heard about a good corner store that serves good quesadillas that can feed 4! What better day than today to try this. The receiver taking the order isn't very hospitable but effective and efficient. We ordered 2 and my son devoured 1 and gave it a thumbs up. The outside space viable, clean and aromatic with great scents. The cost was reasonable.

For the last 10 years this has been the #1 spot for tacos! I have tried different taco stands and restaurants in search for the best tacos and this takes it. The al pastor is the best in the world, the asada sope are delicious! The service is also great, they have hard working employees who remember you by name. The crew there is the best in town they are always busy at night but for a reason, the food is outstanding! I always recommend this place to all my friends and family

I've been coming here for years! There was even a part of my life where I moved to Texas and this is all I would crave. I had my friend bring me tacos to Texas lol she literally flew with them so I could have them again. I always get pastor and tripa tacos and their pastor quesadilla is THE BEST! Staff is super friendly and I don't care that it's in the hood.. I'll make that drive. It's super lit up and it's always busy. I never feel unsafe here. Don't forget to try all three salsas

This place blows the tacos across the street out of the water. Whenever I'm in the mood for a gringa, this is my go to spot. Customer service is wonderful. The man who takes my order always makes me laugh. The cooks are also very friendly. Although it is a taco stand in not the best neighborhoods, I do feel safe when I'm there. There's ample parking in the back and side streets. Plus, it's pretty well lit. Lol.

This small taco truck had stood out to me a few times before while visiting a neighboring competitor across the street so I finally decided to see why there was such a large crowd forming. The selection of meats here is surprising seeing as how this place is tiny. I ordered some asada, al pastor, cabeza, buche and tripa tacos. Oh man these tacos were utterly mouthwatering. I'm literally salivating as I remember having these tacos! The tripas were nice and crispy but a little chewy and all the other meats were cooked to perfection. You're given the salsa and onions separately to add yourself in a bag with salsa. I also got an asada Burrito which was perfect. Rice and beans with your protein and onions and cilantro. Nothing better than that.

We stopped across the street at "The Fat Guy Taco" place, long lines and from what we could see not very hearty looking tacos. So we drove across the street to this truck. First, it feels like you're in TJ when pulling up to the truck. The guys were working the line and taking orders. The prices were reasonable and when we got our tacos they were pretty damn good. Al Pastor, very tasty. Chorizo, same really tasty. I'm not a big fan of fries and Mexican meats but the Asada Fries were really good. So, if you think that waiting in line for the "fat guys" tacos is what you want to do, do it. If not, go across the street and get some really good food at a good price.
