I had a solid experience here recently. The $1 al pastor tacos are a great deal and tasted quite good--definitely worth it for the price. I visited when there wasn't a line, so the service was relatively fast for me. Based on this visit, it's a good spot for a quick and affordable bite in the neighborhood. read more

DO NOT COME TO THIS TRUCK!!! I chose this truck late night last night out of 3 other Mexican food trucks on Eagle Rock Blvd and I regret it all the way. I would give 1 star but I'll give 2 just because the Asada Fries I ordered were decent. But for the prices they have??? Oh h*ll no. Who do they think they are charging people 21$ for a medium box of food. On the truck the price of the fries said 17.99!!!! That's already a lot but I decided to order them feeling like spending money for a good meal and when I order with the guy at the register you can just tell he wants your money. Obviously their business isn't going so well so they have to overprice. After reading the price on the truck the guy says ,"that'll be 21$". I'm in disbelief but I'm not cheap and have pride so I just gave it to him. These people are not for the community at all and I do not recommend. You'll be better off going to Leo's taco truck or the place in front of target. Listen to the reviews or you'll be money grabbed like me. I don't usually write reviews but I cant let that slide again. Not to mention the fact that I couldn't even get a fork with my meal and the make you get the sauce yourself. With prices like that you'd think they cater to their customers a little more. I promise you they don't care. Do not eat here. read more

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 read more

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. read more

Biggest crazy taco place ever. Berria tacos are stale and stink like molded meat. Do not go here. Taco Bell is fresh compared to this bullshit.. read more

Oh no! Do not go, it went downhill pretty bad. The beans and meat were spoiled, I texted the business to let them know and never acknowledged my message. It was pretty disappointing read more

The person who takes the orders can care less about you as a customer. Time and time again, he is always fiddling with his phone and when you're up to the window to place an order, he doesn't even acknowledge you. He needs to finish whatever he is doing on the phone before he will take your order. Once you order and pay, the food comes out somewhat quickly. Food, is subpar at best. Go down the street to La Estrella, which has better food and service. read more

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. read more

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. read more

For starters the food is OVERPRICED. There are cheaper taco trucks with BETTER food quality down york. Second the service is super bad not friendly or welcoming. The man that gives the food dosent even say anything that your food is ready he just expects you to see him. The ambiance is super sketch honestly feel like its a front for something else. Been there twice this is my last time! read more

This taco truck is absolutely amazing! If you're looking for delicious and affordable eats, this is the spot. They've got $1 tacos that are honestly some of the best I've had--packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. You can't beat the price or the taste! Huge shoutout to the incredible staff, especially Betty at the La Puente location. Her energy, friendliness, and service were on point--she really went above and beyond. Betty, you were phenomenal and absolutely deserve a raise read more

Two tacos and a burrito was 24$. What. This was like a mid burrito and basic tacos. Teeny little salsas. It was fine. read more

I should have checked yelp first lol. $18.79 for the worst California burrito I've eaten. Dry, no flavor, even the sauces they provided did not taste good. Explains why they have criminals plastered on the side of their truck. read more

I ordered the Birria queso tacos. They were fresh & juicy. Consomme was nice & flavorful. Service was solid.

screams 50/50 when you walk up. Any taco truck with no line and a very flashy truck with a wrapper of every movie and real life drug dealer in history is a crapshoot. Unfortunately, the quality fell a bit short. Great options. Huge menu. But everything fell short. Except the potato tacos. Those were the bomb. But, what does it say when a taco trucks best dish is their vegetarian option? The carne asada was ok. Maybe sitting cause they were cold. The birria was tasteless. (Where's the consome?) Chix wasn't great. Horchata was good. But angels was better. I'd pick any Eagle Rock Blvd taco truck/stand over Charlie's. But, if you want a instagram worthy taco truck to take pics with, then Charlie's is the spot. read more

Wish I would of taken a picture. But like a previous post said, $17 for not even that great burrito. Burrito was mostly rice and barely had any meat. Their taco specials are okay, but their burritos are way over priced for not being that great quality. Their quesadilla pizza thing wasnt that great as well. After that burrito experience I am not going back. Also no smiles or friendly customer service. It's like the twilight zone. read more

The quality went down and price went up rip Charlie's tacos . A quesadilla used to be 11$ the year prior , and when I went today it went up to 16$ which is ridiculous read more

Ordered the asada nachos and tacos. Let me say the meat is bad quality it was burnt like if it was sitting for a while. The nachos I could have made at home just cheese and meat how embarrassing to even serve it that way. I didn't event finish it and I was starving. Smh It gets one star because the red salsa was ok and the chips are made in house. The horchata was decent. I would say save your money. You're better off going to La Estrella for tacos. This place needs quality control! read more

I came here to treat myself after a long day of work. I ordered a mini birria pizza and a quesa taco - paid $22 for the both of them. The girl in the truck yelled my name for my order and the bag she handed me felt light but I didn't think much of it since it was a mini pizza and the taco, but much to my dismay when I arrived home and sat down to eat, I opened the bag to find I only had the 1 taco. So frustrating! I wasn't going to go back out in the rain and across town to argue with them when I knew in my gut they wouldn't refund me the money or give me the food. That was an expensive taco at $22! Even after going back to actually try it, I mentioned the experience and she just shrugged her shoulders. I won't be back considering their customer service isn't great and they apparently rip people off. read more

This spot is iconic to the neighborhood. It's located at the corner of York and Eagle Rock Blvd. They are always there late night and their choices are amazing and flavorful. My personal favorite is the carne asada fries but you gotta ask for the nacho cheese. The cheese they put you gotta eat it on the spot if not it dries up together and, it just isn't it. The meat is very tasty so anything you get definitely girly has flavor. You can park in the plaza which is good, but the only downside is that it's cash only. But overall, it's at a busy spot, great food, prices are great also. Definitely a great spot for any occasion with great ambience. read more

Charlie's used to have a line all the time and I never understood why. I've ordered an expensive veggie burrito with no flavor more than once always hoping it will be good, but no! Food is terrible and the prices are high. I have no idea how they are still in business. Plus the owner is arrogant and a terrible community member. He drives around in that stupid 3 wheeled monstrosity and sets off fireworks all year long at all hours of the night. The 4th and New Years I get, but be a decent neighbor. I won't support this business ever again. read more

I'm feeling under the weather and thought someone sent me this Charlie's Tacos order from Highland Park through Uber Eats. However, the sender couldn't be verified. I tried calling Charlie's Tacos, but although the phone rang, no one answered. The order was all beef, and people who know me are aware I don't eat beef. It was delivered at 12:37 AM on the night before Labor Day 2024, and the order looked gruesome. Nothing essential was included, except for the order number--and that's what worries me. I'm starting to wonder if the whole thing was a scam. I changed my credit card number because when I tried to contact Uber Eats, the call was redirected to a scam outfit. I'm now wondering if I should call the police. read more

The food is pretty bad and they overcharge! The people that work there look upset and seemed bothered when I asked for some lemon

Aye tio Charlie no mames !! I got the carne asada plate the pic showed it a la plancha only to get a pile of damn near ground beef! It was giving 'I should have been drunk when eating this' which is prob the only time I'd come back and for 20 bucks?! No. Mames. Service was fast though and the truck stood out so that's good for them but I felt donkey punched. read more

Charlie's Tacos - Truck - Food Trucks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I'd give 0 stars if I could. This place is a disgrace to birria, there is NO WAY a Latino made that hot garbage. 1. Dry meat that also tasted bland and under seasoned 2. Small portions of consome and tasted more like tomato juice 3. Tortillas weren't even dipped in consome before cooking them so they ended up all hard and crunchy like a hard shell taco. (And also tasted like cardboard) This shit is just awful in every way shape and form, don't come here! You're in LA I promise you can find better birria than this joke. Biggest waste of $30 in my life read more

Charlie's Tacos - It looks like dog food... - Food Trucks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Honestly tacos where expensive. I didn't mind paying but they weren't up to par. Recommend going somewhere else.

So starting off I was super excited about the California Burrito I ordered. It promised my choice of meat, rice, beans, onions, and guacamole. Also the menu said and I quote "the best burrito in socal". Um no burrito not even close to being the "best" burrito in socal. First of all from outward appearances this burrito is as big as a newborn baby. Unwrapping it and seeing what's inside is a different matter. I would say 90% of it was meat, and then there were a few onions and french fries and that's about it. I didn't see beans, or guacamole. Also I paid $2 extra for cheese and didn't see any of that either. The taste was subpar, not great. I also ordered the potato tacos, tasteless mushy and not good. Do yourself a favor and skip this place next time you think you are getting the "best burrito in socal". read more

MASSIVE burrito with tons of meat, almost to a fault. The carne asada is packed with flavor. I don't understand the reviews calling this place bland. Had the al pastor taco as well and it was also brimming with flavorful meat. Birria rolls are tasty, but greasy. Needs some bright ingredients to balance out. Overall, the food is a flavorful gut punch and they deliver massive portions for the price. Could use a bit more subtlety. read more

They charge more than what they should I made a big order and they overcharged me. Love the food but this is the second time it happens didn't think much of it when I was there but when I counted everything I noticed the over charge. Last time eating here read more

There was a "Charlie's Tacos" van behind the food truck. An employee opened the van door to get something and an onion came out and rolled into the gutter. Instead of throwing it in the trash can right in front of him, he put it back in the van. WTF. I got charged for regular price for Taco Tuesday tacos. I ate the tacos any way. My stomach is turning like the Gravitron. Don't eat here. read more
