This place is so good! They are so sweet and not only are their tacos to die for, their beans are so warm and feel like home.
Cash only. Been coming here for years and have never had a bad experience. I’ve tried all the taco joints around and prefer these guys. Free cup of beans on the weekend.
Probably one of the best hole-in-the-wall spots. I’ve been here numerous times after getting pissed drunk, craving quesadillas. Their meats are well-seasoned and they’ve got some delicious sauces that accompany the quesadilla. They are a cash spot. The dude taking the order is chill, and they’ve got benches to sit, eat, and converse with your party. This place is a solid 8.48/10.
Nondescript taco truck with flat tires… you know it’s going to be good. I travel to SoCal a good bit, have a good idea what a good burrito is. Only gringo around? Warned the Al Pastor is spicy? Handwritten Menu? Flat tires on truck? Flavorful salsa verde? It literally ticks all the boxes. Worth a stop if you’re in town.
Best tortas! I always get a bistek torta with cheese, no tomatoes. Cheese is an extra dollar though :( Frijoles Charros are okay, they come with the order so that’s good!
Highly recommended for their tacos & Quesadillas! They are closed Monday’s and Tuesdays. But the meat in the tacos and quesadillas is very well seasoned.
these are considered by Marcela’s top ten ranking like The best authentic Mexican tacos in town!! They are Number 1 on my list that I just made up! . Be careful with the “pastor” it’s so spicy that you’ll think “ why is this so spicy though?!!!!!! “ while taking more bites and adding salsa to it, wondering if it’s going to be like that tomorrow morning when digestion does its job lol but you cannot , I repeat: You cannot skip pastor! you need to try that “me asusta pero me gusta” kind of taco! It’s so good! Unless you can’t handle spicy hot super spicy hot, then, you won’t be able to finish your first bite and you will be crying like a baby and blaming me for it… do it at your own risk… and in case of this situation happening just mix it with the other tacos and that should work … if that is still bad , then … why are you ordering Mexican food in the first place? Just kidding! If you don’t like spicy hot food then order bistek, fajita or any of the other delicious stuff they have. And remember that they not only have tacos, they have quesadillas , sopes and I don’t know how many more yummy stuff ! They also have sodas ! It’s not really for dining in, it’s a taco truck, but i mean, you can eat there if you want but you’ll be standing juggling with the food, the soda and plastic bad will felt away and your napkins and you’ll be filling them while chewing … so just take your order and go home! You should enjoy them sitting at home!! On weekends they give you charro beans while you wait ! They are also so so so so good!
Best taco in town. Salsas are to die for. Quesadilla hits the spot. Carry cash as they don’t accept any other form of payment. Have tried from many other places but this is the stuff.
