    Cold tacos same as the first round.
    David D.

    Nooooo! Giving this place a second chance. Man I regret it. I order asada tacos and they give me Birria, all the tacos were cold as f! Man I hate cold tacos. Why would a person want to give someone a second chance??? Well I came here thinking maybe the other day I came it wasn't a good day. Now is worse and I was planning to get them for an event. When I ask the girl if they do catering she was like uuhhhh?? This guy have 5 food trucks and they are all the same shi$& he must be doing money laundering

    I've been to Charlie's Tacos several times, and the food is always amazing especially the birria ramen and quesadillas. However, my last two visits were ruined by rude service from the same gentleman. Most recently, I went to pick up an Uber Eats order, and despite my order being ready, I was ignored for several minutes. (There was only one other person waiting) When I was finally helped, he was dismissive, unresponsive, and made the experience needlessly unpleasant. The food is great, but the poor service makes me hesitant to come back.

    2 birria tacos, consomé

    Ordered 2 tacos de birria, squirt and small consommé as usual. Paid $11 and waited 30 mins for this mess without even onions and cilantro. Had to remind the clerk for my drink as well. I was watching the cook move very slowly and serve about 4 Uber Eats orders before the 4 people who'd been in line for 30 mins. Bunk.

    My order

    One of the worst experiences I ever had . I ordered this with uber eats I literally ordered3 burritos for my parents and I my dad was eating his burrito and he bit into something hard. He thought it was a bone and tried to brush it off but instead it was a piece of glass and he cut his mouth open. he then decided to take the piece of glass out of his mouth and continue to find another piece . I've tried to reach out to them multiple times they do not answer the phone. Do not come here. The food is literally deadly. I will be going there tomorrow to speak to them in person and they will be hearing from my lawyer.

    All my tacos

    (La Puente taco truck) Julio and Betty great crowd great atmosphere very informative of their menu and Betty was amazing and very helpful.

    Highland Park's Best Carnitas -- A True Neighborhood Gem!…read more This taco truck will always have a special place in my heart. I grew up in Highland Park, and my parents used to bring me here as a kid. It's one of those spots that instantly brings back memories the moment you pull up -- same truck, same incredible flavors. Their carnitas are hands down the best I've ever had -- flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right every single time. I've tried plenty of places over the years, but nothing compares. Ive always loved their burritos and tortas, but lately I've been hooked on their nachos, which are a newer menu addition and absolutely delicious. I'll even have my boyfriend drive me all the way from where I live just to get them! What makes this place truly special is its consistency. The food quality, the service, and even the prices have stayed solid throughout the years. In a neighborhood that's changed so much, it's comforting to know this hidden gem is still holding it down and keeping that authentic Highland Park flavor alive. They're parked right in front of a 7-Eleven, which makes parking super convenient -- definitely a plus in this area. If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and check it out. Always great food, always good vibes. This spot will forever be one of my favorites.

    Before you read anything else, they only take cash so be sure to hit an ATM before you come…read more So many things I love about this taco truck! We had gone to the UCLA football game at the Rose Bowl on Saturday night and after all the mayhem was over at 11:30 pm I really wanted some truly good food and not get gouged on price - and I knew that Yelp would help me find just that...and we found Los California Tacos! First of all, this food truck was voted the nations #1 food truck in 2022 by ZenBusiness who evaluates food trucks based on Yelp reviews and voted them #1 out of the top 10 most reviewed food trucks in the US! - So there's that. And then we found out why, first hand. I'm originally from Texas and the rule there is the way to find a great restaurant you for a place that has a lot of cars in the parking lot and a line out the door. And this taco truck is tucked back in the small parking lot of an auto repair shop sonofabitch you're driving too fast you might miss it. But we saw all the cars parked on the street and then the line of people at the truck. My girlfriend was like "I don't wanna wait a half hour to eat" but because of how late it was (they stay open till 2:30 am) we decided to stay and give it a try. It was astonishing how fast they were moving people through that line! From the time we hit that parking lot, we were feasting within 5-7 mins. They only serve 2 things - street tacos ($2.50 each) and we later saw that they also serve nachos (not sure what the price is on nachos - but we'd love to try those next time ). They have a wonderful assortment of meats as you can see from my pic: asada (steak), pastor (BBQ pork), carnitas (fried pork), chicharron (spicy pork), cabeza (beef cheek) & pollo (chicken). We got asada, pastor and pollo tacos and they were VERY good. You can get spicy or mild and they come with onions & cilantro. There are 4 or 5 guys cooking and as soon as you tell them what you want they are handing to you - not kidding, lightning fast, hot & fresh! It is artistic how well-oiled their whole business runs and is VERY impressive!! They don't have actual tables (because that would be inefficient). The auto repair shop has installed a pull-down shelf on the parking lot wall that you walk over to once you have your food and it is very efficient and absolutely perfect for this location. Again, this one our most impressive finds and $14 for 5 tacos and a 5 min wait for what looks to be a 30+ min wait is just unheard of. 5 stars all day long!!

    06/07/26 Sunday…read more Quick pit stop at this food truck for dinner. I got tacos (Asada and Cabeza). I got mild salsa and all the toppings. The salsa was too tart for me. Everything else was on point. Our orders came out pretty quick. They offer standing areas to eat with communal sanitizer and napkins. Cash only. Street parking only.
