    4 street tacos, 2 pastor tacos 2 carne asada!  Fair price, very authentic. Highly recommend!

    This place is great! Great little taco stand! Super great service, consistent, great authentic Mexican food. The street tacos are to die for! The red salsa I can pretty much drink! It's delicious!

    Ordered a burrito and received a plate of meat with 5 corn tortillas and no sauce that it says it comes with! Decided to eat it bc it got delivered and I was hungry and it was awful! Meat was dry and chewy!

    Tacos were a little small but it tasted AMAZING definitely go again. The people who serve there is chill, and I don't know why people don't go there... they have good tacos!

    Street Tacos, one each of Asada, Carnitas and Pollo.

    I've had this food truck bookmarked for a while, but I don't frequent the area much. It's on a dirt lot in front of the Albertsons on the corner of Lake Hazel/Five Mile. I stopped late one afternoon about 4pm, so not a peak busy time really. There was only one person there ordering just before me. I ordered street tacos, one of each Asada, Carnitas and Pollo. I had a question, but there was no way the guy taking my order was going to answer it as he shrugged his shoulders and said he only spoke Spanish in Spanish. The guy who ordered before me got his food after about 10 minutes, so I figured my easy 3 street tacos would be up quickly. I was wrong. After what felt like a long 15 minutes, I went up to the window to ask how much longer, but again, he didn't understand my question. After 22 minutes, and me pacing at the window wondering how on earth it could take this long to prepare tacos, I was finally given my order. Here's the bummer, the tacos were not even that good! Having gotten one of each meat, I couldn't really taste any difference in the meats. All on the bland side, I didn't use any salsa because it was my first time eating here and I didn't want to mask the meat flavor. Unfortunately, I will not be going back here again. There are other taco trucks I like better anyway. I chose 3 stars because it was an average experience.

    $9 - $11 for burritos. Never!!!

    I wish I lived closer to the location of this food truck. The el pastor burrito is to die for. I also think their salsas are fabulous.

    Tuesday when several if us from work go to lunch... today, tacos! But where to go? Someone…read morementioned the one place I'd never been, what the heck, why not! A decent Selection of lunch menu offerings, I went with Chili Verde, pork in green sauce, eithucorn tortillas. We ordered chips and salsa, interesting because it's not complimentary as in so many Mexican places, is one hotter yellow sauce with pineapple, a typical medium sauce, and a mild, plus beans were ordered. The chips were gold, house made, the yellow sauce was definitely good, would probably be great on fish tacos, but the medium red was what I preferred with chips. Lunch arrived with the obligatory "hot plate" warning meaning it had bern in the oven. As always, I started by trying the rice and beans, v both were good enough I nearly finished them before even trying the Chili Verde. What was interesting here was I wanted to use the larger than average sized corn tortillas to get every bit of the verde sauce off the plate! Something, we were too busy talking to tell, was different. I don't ever remember wanting to sop all the sauce up with the tortillas before! Would I come back, yes, there is enough that looked interesting to return.

No cap it feels like we're in MX The service is just as impressive. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and makes us feel right at home from start to finish. And the food... absolutely amazing. Everything tastes so fresh, flavorful, and authentic. We love the agua de horchata it smacks every single time. You can really tell they put care into every dish. Overall this place checks all the boxes! Thank you amazing team

The menu has a few things you can order from burritos, tacos, tortas and other fun items. We ordered a Carne Asada Burrito and it has rice, beans, meat of choice & lettuce and avocado it was pretty good. We got some tacos as well and not sure if she mixed up another ordered but we were short 3 tacos on our order and that was a bummer.. I was really looking forward to them. Their asada, carnitas, el pastor were all really good and authentic flavor and loved that the pastor had the pineapple chunks as well. One thing I did dislike was I asked about chips order and it said $5 when I asked her if I can just have a couple, she was a bit confused and asked the lead there. Apparently they didn't have chips in their truck and had to go find them. That should have been my no thank you but I figured ohh let's give them a try. Once we got to our house and saw the $5 chips I was honestly a bit upset they were store bought nacho chips. Tacos are $2.50 I don't understand why chips are $5 and they aren't even like your traditional Mexican chips or something along those lines. That was my only downfall to this place but those are just chips. Their food was honestly good no doubt about it when we were ordering they had a few people eating there and a few to go orders. Maybe take them off the menu or make little baggies and purchase chips from a Mexican store or make your own tostadas..
