I love this spot! Open late night and has the best Al pastor meat in the area. I get the Al pastor tacos every-time and the quality is solid each time. Service is fast and people are friendly. Love the free grilled onions at the condiment bar! read more

Great tacos de buche. Meat was very flavorful. The buche was not overly chewy.Toppings were fresh. Plenty of toppings to choose from. Cebolla con habanero..mmm.Sauces were tasty. I will give a more detailed review when I pay another visit. That buche though was yummy! read more

For Chiquis Tacos June 27th service, after previously using white canopies, they used stolen custom made canopies from Cena Vegan. This place does not offer plant based meats and is not a vegan restaurant. It's extremely shady that Chiquis Tacos would do something like this. I do not recommend this establishment for that very reason. If they cut corners with how their equipment is obtained, I can only imagine how they cut corners on the food. read more

Chiquis Tacos - Do not support this business, they are not vegan but use stolen tents from Cena Vegan hours after they were stolen. Shady! - Food Trucks Near Me

I will say I've only had the al pastor tacos, but they were super tasty! Sauces and other toppings were also good. It's located in a gas station parking lot, so there is parking. read more

Your mother makes it the best Best taco truck by your mothers house The fries are better than your mothers The al pastor is mighty juicer than your mothers Carne Asada Oooooo lord Jesus have mercy on that meat Okay best place in the U.S They deserve tips over $30 or more if u got it ofc!!!! I hope everyone enjoys these tacos that are better than your mothers read more

Place has gone down hill. Meat is definitely not fresh some days and the customer service needs work. Highly recommend checking other taco places in the area like Tacos como el DF and another taco spot in Arlington / Pico. If this place really cared they would change their quality and not sell trash. I'll eventually check them out again sometime next year and see if they picked it up. read more

Chiquis tacos is pathetically lame for buying stolen property. Your own photos show tents with blank white tops, then all of a sudden you have tents with tops from a vegan taqueria?? And instead of owning up to buying them, and potentially knowing who sold them to you, you lied and claimed they were purchased months before,... Why would you buy tents with another businesses name on it??? Karma @$$ holes... Pathetic!! read more

These people have no standards with ethics or morality. They clearly don't care about where things come from to make a buck. If they are willing to buy stolen goods for cheap and then lie and claim they got things a month ago after clearly being confronted about it hours after things were reported to the police. Then false advertise someone else's brand (whom you could have gotten unknowingly vegans to eat your food and caused further damage) and claim as your own. It's clear that this place needs no business from anyone, and if it's true what they claim then they should come forward and say who they bought the tents from. Otherwise they are the thieves themselves and should be treated as such! They serve nothing but TACOS DE CACA! read more

There is always one bad review or the chief is having an off day... This s 1 of them... Don't get me wrong, this review is not directed towards the rest of the staff in the taco truck or the food... the food is pretty damn good; however, the chef is a complete ¡Pindaho! /A-hole! I paid $7.50 for a burrito with extra meat y that didn't happen (it was a regular size burrito :-(), y this was the 2nd time this happened within a two week period... For $7.50 the expectation was lacking to say the least... I know what your thinking... its a f'in taco truck (4 godsakes) it suppose to be mediocracy in customer service, quality y taste sometimes... Its Street Food without a smile... So I digress... I complained again... Y brought it back to the chef y he cussed me out in Spanish, like I didn't know what he was talking about and he snatched the burrito out of my hand and asked the cashier to give me my money back... ¡Wow... WTF! that has never happened in all my thirty years eating at taco trucks... Never, ever, first time... I probably won't go back because for $7.50 there's a million street meat taco trucks out there y 1 bad attitude chief won't make flying F' of a difference... Karma sir it's coming 4U... Ooh by the way, there are lots of roaches and rats in the nearby a A-jasen alley y parking lot... U just got to wonder... read more

Chiquis Tacos - Food Trucks Near Me

I can't see how anyone would want to eat at a place that misrepresents itself. They use stolen equipment from Cena Vegan, another pop up that serves plant-based foods. These guys suck. read more

Had the al pastor, cabeza, birria and lengua tacos and man oh man are they delicious!!!

Don't pay attention to the bad reviews that have nothing to do with the taste of the food. They have my favorite al pastor tacos in town. Even better than the famous Leo's Tacos. This place is definitely worth a try. The salsas are delicious as well. read more

The al pastor here is bomb. We've tried the fries (so good!) the burritos, tacos and tortas! We come here often and it's Always a great alternative to cooking dinner! So delicious definitely recommend. read more

The carne tacos were really, really good. The pollo were dry as hell. The tacos were cheap, worthwhile, but I am not into the whole taco truck thing. The condiments being out, uncovered, with homeless people hovered over them taking giant piles of cucumbers makes me worry a bit. Service was pretty quick, seating was outside and pretty damn dirty. Again, another downside with taco trucks. I was kind enough to loan a homeless guy some money to help buy his gordita, and 4 others came out of the woodwork wanting handouts. Never again! My bad. I will be back if I am hungry enough. read more

Gives you bad Diar#%#. Both times I tried this place same thing. Looks Good. Taste Good. NOT Good! Low Quality Meat that you will regret later. read more

Don't normally do this but this is enough. Gave it time and only got worse. Quality........poor. That is all I can say. Normally I like oily tacos but this time it was ridiculous. It was as if I was eating an oil dipped taco which is what it really felt like. Not sure how else to describe it. Last week the order taker was making fun or a customer. Telling the cook to say (in Spanish) "tell them you don't speak English" grant it the customer was annoying, still..... not good. The week before that the condiments containers were pretty much empty. Busy time yet they did not come out to refill them. This time I found a rubber band in the water soaked cilantro container. Only reason I'm giving them 2 stars is I've been coming here for years and I'm sure they'll pick things up. If not then oh well. Good things aren't meant to last. read more

I always see this taco truck on my drive home from work on Melrose Ave. It's located at the lot of a car wash, so they use this space after the carwash closes every day. Unlike other taco trucks, this one actually sets up pop-up tents, tables and chairs for people to chill, relax and eat. There are ALWAYS people there. One day, I finally tried it. It is ONE OF THE BEST TACO TRUCKS IN TOWN! Not to mention the abundance of variety, these tacos, muletas and burritos are tasty. Stop by for a bite next time. Really, you won't regret it. read more

Excellent Mexican food and memorable experience. I really enjoyed their tacos as well as their carne asada shoestring fries. Delicious. I like that they use real cheese on their fries. I especially cannot emphasize enough about how awesome their condiments are and they allow you free range so you can have the most enjoyable taco experience. Go here for mexican food and great condiments and tons of it!!!! Great job guys! read more

You want the pastor. They have a cone of it outside the truck because it deserves to be seen in all its glory. They do a great job finishing it on the grill to add some crunchy char. read more

At Santa Monica and Vine... in the gas station parking lot next door to 3 Clubs. I should give them another star just because they're next door to 3 Clubs. As they say, location, location, location. They have bomb pastor tacos. Can't go wrong with pastor that's on a spit. Nicely charred pieces of marinated pork on a tortilla with a thin slice of pineapple on top. They have a big table full of condiments where you can add additional cilantro, onions, and a variety of hot sauce. Next time you're at Santa Monica and Vine, grab a taco and quench your thirst at 3 Clubs... can't go wrong. read more

Love this place! The guys are friendly and the service is fast! You can stand outside and eat if you want but beware of the homeless people hanging around! I only wished they took debit! Only cash! read more

Chiquis Tacos - Food Trucks Near Me

See all

tacos are delicious, yes. but check your receipt because they always tend to charge you for food you did not buy. it's happened to two of my mom's friends and it happened to my dad last week. they will say accidental, but it's always different people charging extra. read more

Really tasty quality tacos at a reasonable price. Ya sure the flaming taco is open later but if you are on a budget you can't miss here. The tacos are bigger tastier and cheaper. $6 bucks for six tacos of asada is a steal if you ask me . Frijoles de la olla were seasoned perfectly and tender. It's hard to find good "homemade tasting " beans - Chiquis got em right. We will be back for more...Lets put it this way: my hun is 6'4 and tacos just don't do the job....these did!!! Of course it took 6 of them! Next trip we will be trying the burros with a cup of champurrado mmmmmmmm! Another nice touch about Chiquis is that they have a few clean tables to sit at that are covered so rain or shine you will be fine. read more

This place is great. Let me address the truth and the BS being spoken of in these reviews. 1} The food is great. Consistency can be an issue at times, but it is never less than good. They have a big menu that will appeal to everyone. They also have tons of condiments and toppings to go with it all, as well as many beverages. Great food at a great price. 2} It's Washington and Arlington, not Wilshire and Fairfax. Of course the crowd and the neighborhood is going to be different. If you're scared, stay home. I've never had a single problem there. 3} If my stuff had been stolen and I saw it somewhere else, I'd give those people their money back, and ask who they bought it from. If it is traceable, I give it to the police. If not, oh well. At least I got my stuff back, and I learned a valuable lesson. 4} You have to be flat out stupid to walk up to this truck and think it is vegan, regardless of what you might read. Awnings do not imply product. 5} I suspect an organized effort is being made to try and kill this business by a rival that doesn't like them. Don't buy into it. This place is worth the trip. read more

Don't waste your time on a company or taco stand that will go to great lengths to steal and scam. Why support these people when they do not even provide quality food let alone truthfulness on where they got their ez up from when it's from a way better company. Try out Cena vegan who works hard and doesn't bring other food places down in their making. Support realness and authenticity! read more

Advertising Plant based meat on their canopy, but it wasn't. That is terrible! Word on the street is that they stole their canopies from a vegan taco truck and are using it. read more

My new favorite taco truck. This truck is now at Santa Monica and Vine in the gas station parking lot, but I think it used to be somewhere else. Parking is easy at the side of the gas station, or if you're getting gas at the pump for a quick fix. They have a great selection of food and condiments to go with everything. Price was great, got a burrito and four tacos for $10 even. I like it better then Cactus Taco just a block away, and definitely better than the El Matador truck that everyone raves about. read more

Been coming here for years & it was always on point. Tonight I'm not too sure if it was because the "kids" were running it or what... But I will never eat here again. Walked up greated the young lady she pretended she didn't hear me so I spoke again & it was like blah! I ordered 4 asada tacos & grabbed a snapple which came out to $10... I'm wondering like wait WTH what did I get. Paid with a $20 & still left a lil $1 tip. Got the tacos & man Ive never in my life seen stringy asada. I took then back up to the window just to verify the type of meat. I was so disgusted after biting into both chicken (salty) & stringy asada. Very unhappy felt she double charged, piss poor customer service... Too bad this place used go be good too. Totally sucks now I wouldn't waste time! read more

Really good Mexican food! The al pastor tacos with the pineapple is perfect. Asada, carnitas and chicken burritos are also good. Best Mexican I've had in LA. read more

I live just across the street and have been so happy with most of my orders. I think maybe once I felt like my meat lacked flavor but this place is so good and you can avoid the long lines at Leo's Taco Truck. It sucks seeing these reviews claiming that they stole equipment. If there is proof then it should be put out and if there isn't the there is no point in bringing down a business. They couldn't easily bought a canopy from someone without knowing it was stolen. I see these people working late all the tine and they have always been kind. read more

This is probably one of the worse experiences I've ever encountered with a tow I truck. First off, the food was disgusting & oily. They my entire order wrong. I specifically asked for things they charged me for those items but did not put them in the requested dishes. Secondly I feel like the food was over priced. & they basically robbed me for charging for items they diss not put in the dishes. They did not use a calculator or nor a till to ensure that the price was correct. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Honestly. read more

Holy smokes this place is the absolute best!!!! Stopped by here randomly and have been back 4 or 5 times! I've gotten the al pastor burrito, asada burrito, and the chorizo burrito and the asada is my favorite. I can't speak highly enough about this truck and love that they have a ton of toppings to choose from, including 4 different salsas. They open at about dinner time (6pm) and if you're having a craving for Mexican... this is a must try! read more

i ordered 25 pieces of tacos and they only gave me 10 pieces no wonder i payed $37+ i was like how much is a taco it's 1.50 and most taco trucks are a dollar. tacos are very small. read more

Although there's so many bad reviews regarding stolen property, the reviews have nothing to do with the savor-full food you make. Great alpastor tacos that I've had EVER!!!! read more

If I find another taco place with Pastor as good as this, I'll also give it 5 stars. I've looked and so far this is my favorite.

If you're looking for real deal street tacos then Chiquis is it. The service was fast and friendly and the food was amazing. We had the steak tacos. The price is very affordable which made for a great dinner trip with the kids. Drive slow when searching for this hidden gem. Chiquis is tucked away in a small parking lot next to a Chevron gas station. read more

As an Uber driver its hard to find good food and fast. Found this by recomendation of a rider. Stopped by ordered tacos, order was wrong but they quickly fixed it. The best thing was the tripas, Delocious! read more

Buche or Brule. Pork taco is a must. I will definitely come back for a visit real soon. One of the best taco trucks our there.

Good food! Be aware of sticky ground. Order lots of food and enjoy with a table full of condiment

i don't know where the chiquis truck was before, but they are now located on the corner of vine at santa monica, sandwiched between a mobile gas station and the three of clubs lounge next door. i've been here a few times in the past two weeks, and each time i fall more and more in love with them. they have a pretty big menu, but i always opt for the dollar tacos. my favorites so far are the chorizo, al pastor, barbacoa, and carnitas. oh my god, these tacos are delicious. it would take too long to describe each one individually, so i'll just lump them all under the umbrella of "fucking fantastic". seriously, you'll wish you had ordered more. even better, there is a picnic table in front of the chiquis truck, loaded with every condiment and accompaniment you can think of---a condiment bar if you will. there's a tub of mild green sauce, a more fiery roasted red sauce, pico de gallo, cilantro, pickled red onions, pickled peppers and vegetables, grilled onions, freshly sliced radishes, rounds of cucumbers, an amazing creamy avocado/cilantro sauce, and a pan of roasted jalapenoes that will make you wish you were never born--they are THAT hot. next door is very underrated three of clubs, a lounge where you can hang with friends and have a drink that won't cost you an arm or a leg. they are cool about letting you take your tacos in, so take advantage of it. seriously, i am not a food truck type person, am somewhat of a food snob, and i am in LOVE with chiquis tacos. give them a try. you won't regret it (unless you have their roasted jalapeno of course). read more
