    This is a taco truck in the middle of Cambria. It's not easy to park around there, but there are spaces on the street. Great Al pastor! The burrito was excellent. I especially liked the Cotija cheese. The gorditas were tasty, but a bit too greasy. Service was pretty quick. They have a few tables around to eat. We took ours to Moonstone beach and ate by the water. I will definitely go back.

    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. There's several benches/outdoor patio seating and it seems like there's a lot of regulars that stop by. 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. Luckily they have some seating around, so you can soak up the sun, and enjoy the beautiful weather while you wait for your food.

    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!

    I really wanted to love this place because the food truly is amazing. The flavors are great and everything tastes fresh. However, the service has been consistently disappointing. I have a cilantro "allergy" (it tastes like soap to me), so we specifically asked for no cilantro when ordering. They took the order without saying there would be an issue. When we received our food, it was completely covered in cilantro. When we politely brought it back, the response we got was attitude and, "Well, everything that comes with it is listed." If that's the case and you can't accommodate the request, just say so before we order. Don't agree to it and then act annoyed when it's wrong. This is the second time this has happened, and the rude attitude from the younger staff is unacceptable. Great food, but customer service matters and unfortunately, it ruined the experience for us. We won't be returning I'm replying to the response from Boni's: Nice reply and thanks for making my point.

    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!

    The service was great but expect a 5-10minute line due to how popular it is. This is a little food truck just off a popular street so you'll be hearing the cars pass by. 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 there are places to sit outside the food truck that are comfortable. 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. It's a food truck located on a nice corner, with plenty of street parking and seating around it. Definitely has a nice and welcoming feel to it. It felt very local, which we appreciate since a lot of places can feel a little tourist-trappy. We will definitely be back!!!

    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.

    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!

So, they will pause taking orders to catch up - and personally, I prefer that vs. someone taking my order and feeling like I'm Waiting "too long". They have two lobster roll options (we went with the Maine). It was dressed perfectly, had great seasoning and was very a generous portion. We also tried the CA shrimp roll, which had similar dressing/seasoning and was just as tasty. They also have slaw or "flat fries" option, which we opted for and they were so good! There are some benches to sit at & enjoy, or you can walk to the pier and eat there. Very little shade, but there are public bathrooms right by the benches.

    If someone asked me to recommend just one restaurant in Cambria, I'd probably answer before they…read morefinished the question: Medusa's. Now, full disclosure--I might be a little biased because Mexican food is my favorite cuisine. I grew up in Los Angeles, where finding incredible Mexican food isn't a challenge... it's practically a birthright. So when I say Medusa's is the real deal, I don't hand out that compliment lightly. My wife and I almost always order the Molcajete, and it's become our tradition. It's advertised as serving two people, and it absolutely does... assuming one of those people doesn't "accidentally" keep taking just one more bite. It's loaded with flavor, generous portions, and arrives at the table looking like it deserves its own introduction. The biggest surprise on this visit? The tortillas. They were fresh, homemade, and absolutely phenomenal. Maybe they've always made them from scratch and I somehow missed it, but this time they stole the show. They tasted just like the ones my abuelita used to make--warm, soft, and so good they almost made me forget there was an entire Molcajete sitting in front of me. One of my favorite things about Medusa's is that it's family-run, and you can feel it the moment you walk in. Everyone is genuinely welcoming, friendly, and makes you feel like you're more than just another table. That kind of hospitality is getting harder to find, and it makes the meal even better. I've eaten at a lot of Mexican restaurants over the years, and Medusa's has earned a permanent spot near the top of my list. If you're in Cambria and craving authentic Mexican food, do yourself a favor and stop here. Just one piece of advice: don't fill up on the chips... no matter how much your stomach insists it's a great idea. Your future self will thank you when the Molcajete arrives.
