    Tacos
    Mitzy A.

    The service was quick, and the ordering process was simple and efficient. The tacos were decent, but I've had better al pastor elsewhere, and that happens to be my favorite type of meat. I actually preferred the gorditas over the tacos. The masa had a very authentic flavor and texture, which made them stand out.

    Ok who would've thought some of the best tacos would be in the small town of Cambria?!?! Being from LA, and knowing that tacos only get better as we get closer to the border, I did not expect these tacos to hit as good as they did. So flavorful , they even got the pineapple bits on the Al pastor. It was awesome to have one of my favorite foods in the area and a good break from the more traditional fare. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's several benches/outdoor patio seating and it seems like there's a lot of regulars that stop by.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would highly recommend squeezing this place in your itinerary if you're in the area!

    Boni's Tacos is a must! It's a small food truck that offers a variety of delicious Mexican food. My boyfriend and I tried their Al pastor and carne asada tacos, which were so delicious, that we had to order twice! The only issue we had was that they were a bit slow, and they were also extremely busy, so be prepared for a wait, especially during lunch time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Luckily they have some seating around, so you can soak up the sun, and enjoy the beautiful weather while you wait for your food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Um no pics of food because well it looked and tasted so good I didn't get a chance to take any lol. Staff was so kind and Spanish speaking as well! Lots of seating options outside. Had a chicken gordita and my oh my was it so delicious! Perfectly fried tortilla with well seasoned meat! Only critique i have is that i would have preferred fresh cheese vs melting cheese but regardless it was still delicious!! Definitely will be stopping by each time I'm in the area and you should too!

    Absolutely delicious tacos and burritos! Friendly service as well. Tacos are flavorful and delish!! The burrito was so good. Chicken and fillings in every bite!

    4 tacos.

    Found this little gem in the small town of Cambria. Showed up around 3:15, they close at 5 but were shutting down early due to running out of food. Couldn't get a burrito but had tacos instead. Ordered two carne, one pastor and one chili verde. Chili verde won by a long shot, absolutely delicious. Others were good too. Chips and salsa very tasty. Wanted rice and beans but they were out of beans, they looked great though from what we could see. Advice: don't go towards end of day, they're likely out of deliciousness.

    Breakfast Burrito (Medium)

    The service was great but expect a 5-10minute line due to how popular it is. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a little food truck just off a popular street so you'll be hearing the cars pass by.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Breakfast Burrito was excellent! This is a very good burrito made with care to ensure it is both juicy inside and crispy/dry on the outside. Good price, good portions, great food. Strongly recommend!

    Well, I don't have any pictures of the food to post along with my review, because we straight gobbled it up upon receiving our order LOL! We actually stopped into Boni's 2 times, one going up the coast and then on the way back. We ordered the Al pastor tacos, quesadilla and chile verde Gordita, everything was super yummy! Love that they cook the Al pastor traditionally, it's so good! The Chile Verde Gordita was epic good, the pork was so tender! The food comes out pretty fast, the staff is friendly and [[HIGHLIGHT]]there are places to sit outside the food truck that are comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly suggest Boni's for great Mexican food in Cambria!

    Breakfast burrito with al pastor
    Layla E.

    My gosh, best breakfast burritos ever!!!! This was our first time here, and we absolutely LOVED it. We got the breakfast burrito with Al pastor, and it was gone within seconds. The service was quick and friendly, and we could tell the meat was fresh. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a food truck located on a nice corner, with plenty of street parking and seating around it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely has a nice and welcoming feel to it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It felt very local, which we appreciate since a lot of places can feel a little tourist-trappy. We will definitely be back!!!

    Okay, so I've been coming to Cambria for years (like since I was in my 20s and now I'm in my 40s long) and only now did I discover Boni's. I'm pissed. All this time, there was amazing al pastor tacos just chilling on Main Street. Like really? Why haven't I been here before? So rude. Anyway. The Al pastor is so good. My husband and I shared a taco plate and as I write this, lightweight upset I didn't get a burrito because their beans and rice were also really good. Like, I'm also lightweight upset they were closed Tuesday-Thursday cause I was really hoping I'd be eating a goddamn burrito as I write this. They also ate quite popular. There was a lot of regulars that came up while we were there because more than a few times I hear "Usual order?". You know then it's a good place, We also had the chips and salsa. Chips were okay, like, acceptable and not going to complain. I do wish they were homemade though. The salsa though? My god. That was good. Like, I wanted more of that too. If you are hankering for amazing tacos, look no further than Boni's.

    When you see a line at a local taco truck, you know it's going to be great! Crazy that I waited this long to try this place. My company raved over it...so duh! Of course, I was in! We shared the most delicious chili verde burrito and we each had a pastor taco...omg! Soooo good! I'm so glad that I finally tried Boni's! Thanks to my companion for the great recommendation!

    An absolute banger of a food truck. 10/10, fast service and fresh ingredients. Somehow, still really accessible-- six tacos, and two sodas for $25, and most importantly-- absolutely *delicious* If I lived here, I'd eat daily.

    Three asada tacos plate.

    We have seen this taco truck in Cambria for years and never found the time to stop by. I recalled years ago reading about the owner, Boniface, and his efforts to provide good food to the community. This past week, we made the effort to find out why there were lines of people at this humble taco truck. The lines are a direct result of delicious Mexican food. The young man taking orders was extremely polite and helpful. My wife ordered the three taco plate and I ordered a taco pastor and a chili verde gordita. Oh my, what a taste treat. Everything was excellent The pastor was very good but I was thrilled with the chili verde. I ended up ordering a small burrito of straight chili verde. Yummy!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We will definitely go back and enjoy their good food and dine outside at the nice location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Bon Appetite at Boni's!!!

    Delicious Al Pastor tacos!

    Will you be open on Thanksgiving? If so, hours and same menu & service as always?

    Hi Marisa, we will be closed Thanksgiving Day in order to let our staff spend the day with their families. Thanks for understanding!… 

    So are beans and rice and tortillas are vegetarian friendly (contains no lard)?

    Hi Sabrina! We do not use lard in any of our products, however the rice does contain chicken bouillon/stock.

We were walk in, the hostess offered us seating in two bar areas and also made room in the front room for us. We sat at a table in the front room. It had nice ambiance and nicely decorated with plants. Our server was super sweet and helpful. We ordered a Paloma which was great but I heard the pisco sours are good and homemade. Wish we tried one but next time! The service was so fast. When we got our cocktail the food arrived! We ordered the señor lomo which was their lomo saltado. It was sooo good. The sauce was so flavorful and the filet mignon was very tender. It came with a lot of veggies, fries and rice too. Also ordered the escabeche which was a sea bass with similar delicious sauce and veggies. It had mixed colored roasted potato's underneath. Fish and the dish was soft and equally flavorful and delicious. I would say the sauce was slightly lighter than señor lomo. They had a platter of desserts on display. Wish we could have all of them. They all looked pretty and delicious. We tried the papaya creme brûlée. Thought it mostly tasted just like creme brûlée. Highly recommend. It is one of the best Peruvian places I've been. Kinda pricy though, each dish was about $40.

From the hostesses to the bartenders to the chefs, everyone knows how to create a beautiful experience for the guests! In the past I've tried the afrodisíaco dish and was blown away but I wanted to excite myself with a different dish so I chose the Mixto dish and wow! The flavors just burst in your mouth with how bright they are, the dish is set under Ceviche but this is so much more elevated than your typical view of ceviche dishes! My boyfriend ordered the Dragon Lake cocktail and absolutely loved it! The ingredients are so well incorporated you don't find yourself tasting a drink with overpowered liquor that drowns out the other ingredients! He's a bartender so he appreciates a well made drink! On his end he loved his plate although I didn't catch the name of it, it was beautifully plated and it showed through with the taste of each bite as well! This is a MUST visit if you're ever back in the SLO area.

Note that the parking lot, depending on which day you go, can fill up very quickly. The location is right off of the 101 and easy to find. We checked in and was seated within 10 minutes at a booth that overlooked the beautiful views of the Pismo Beach coast line. Our server, a younger black woman, who told us her nickname was 'TiTi', if I'm not mistaken, was wonderful. Her personality and hospitality was infectious and exceeded 5 stars. She brought us fresh hot corn and flour tortillas with a small cup of brown sugar butter and three different salsas to try. Everything was delicious. We ordered the surf and turf special which was a jumbo shrimp on top of a filet mignon that rested on mash potatoes and a creamy/savory white sauce. We also ordered the lobster Mac and cheese. Everything was exceptionally good. My only takeaway would be that I found the food, especially the lobster Mac and cheese to be pretty salty. Definitely excited for my next visit.

We had a reservation for a birthday dinner and arrived about 30 minutes early. We were told we'd be seated closer to our reservation time, which was completely understandable. However, as we waited, we watched several groups (including walk-ins without reservations) get seated before us. Even after our reservation time had passed, we had to check in with the host again before we were finally seated, despite there being plenty of empty tables. The service at the front definitely could have been handled better. The food, on the other hand, was very good with a great variety of options. I loved that they start you off with freshly made tortillas, cinnamon butter, and salsa to share. I ordered the Campechana de Mariscos, which was fresh, generously portioned, and perfect for sharing. We also had the Molcajete, and it was delicious! It came with a great mix of steak, chicken, chorizo, jumbo shrimp, nopal, and cheese. The portion was generous and easily enough for two people. Other dishes we ordered also included the pozole, chicken nachos, and lobster mac and cheese. Everything was delicious as well! The mac and cheese especially. For drinks, I tried the Golden Hour nonalcoholic cocktail, and unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend it. It tasted like watered-down ginger beer with no carbonation and only the faintest hint of pineapple. It was more on the bitter taste. Overall, this is a great restaurant for the ocean views and flavorful food. The portions are generous, and there's something for everyone on the menu. The only downside was the host service and the unnecessary wait despite having a reservation. I'd still come back for the food and the scenery.

One thing I've noticed, though, is that the food can be inconsistent, especially with takeout. I tend to order the same meals repeatedly, but they often taste different from one visit to the next. Sometimes they're excellent, and other times they're just okay. I wish there were more consistency because when the food is good, it's really good. My most recent visit was disappointing. I ordered the salmon salad, and for $21, I expected a larger, fresher salad. The portion felt small for the price. The salmon had a noticeably fishy taste, and the whole cherry tomatoes included one that was mushy inside, which made the salad difficult to enjoy. I do want to recognize the excellent service, though. After I mentioned that the salad seemed small, my server kindly brought me extra lettuce at no charge, which I really appreciated. That thoughtful gesture made a positive impression. Overall, I genuinely hope the restaurant can improve the consistency of its food because it has some standout menu items and great service. I'll definitely be back for the Argentinian tacos, and I'm hopeful that future visits will be more consistent.
