    They have, carnitas, chorizo, chicken, asada, al pastor. Plus quesadillas and bacon wrapped hot dogs

    This was our second time using Citlalys. Their food is BOMB! They are definitely affordable and they always exceed our experience. We've done both a Taco Service as well as a premium, and believe me we will always do a premium from now on! The cocktail hour was fantastic! My son and his friends loved how fancy it was. The bacon wrapped hot dogs are probably the best! Highly highly recommend! Can't wait for the next party!

    We hired Citaly's Taco Catering for my grandson's first birthday and I'm happy to post everything turned out AMAZING!!! There was great communication thoughout with Ruben, who helped us with the menu, had great questions about the site for their setup, and worked out the perfect schedule for service. Everyone who attended raved about the food and complimented how delicious and authentic it all tasted. Service was excellent and the line moved quickly for tacos and quesadillas. The sides were very good (rice, beans, onions and peppers) and the Aqua Fresca was also a hit with everyone. Thank you so much for making our party so memorable. We highly recommend Citaly's and will use you again for future events.

    Taco catering is such an amazingly easy way to feed a large group of people. I was really pleased with the choice of items available as well as the easy setup and tear down - all run by 1 person too. Top notch quality too. Everyone loved it.

    Awesome tacos, rice and beans

    Our friends had two different parties over the last couple of weeks and both times they used Citlaly's Taco Catering. This is some of the very best Mexican food that I have ever had. They provide a good amount of various types of meats. My favorite was the Al Pastor, which is cooked to perfection. They offer this fruit punch that is so good, you have to try it. If you need Mexican food catered at your next party, Citlaly's is the way to go.

    Ruben is fantastic! I am the Communications Director at Lux Eyewear. I organized our first big Eyewear show of the year, which was held in Palo Alto on Friday, May 17th. We had over 125 people in attendance. The food was absolutely delicious, everything was very clean, and several of our attendees asked me for Ruben's information for their future events. He and his team showed up on time, were very accommodating, and super friendly! I am more than completely satisfied with the service he provided for such an important event for myself & Lux Eyewear. Thank you so much, Ruben ! Have a beautiful summer! Hire Citlaly's ... 6 out of 5 stars for real!

    I came here on weekday evening to grab some dinner. Heard of this place from Reddit, it does feel…read morelike a hole in the wall, but it was pretty busy. Lots of take out orders and dine in orders. I ordered 5 super tacos to share with different meats (pollo, carne asada, al pastor, carnitas and chorizo). The super tacos come with cilantro, onions, avocado, sour cream, cheese and pico de gallo. All the tacos come with homemade corn tortillas - you could tell they were fresh. The tacos are big, not small at all. The carne asada, carnitas and pollo was my favorite. Al pastor was good as well, chorizo was not that flavorful for me. However, they also have 3 types of salsas (green, red and a creamy orange) you can use to help add some more flavor if needed. I plan to come back here to try their burritos and tortas as well next time.

We ordered 2x Carne Asada Taco 7/10 2x Al Pastor 7/10 Asada Burrito Bowl 7/10 Enchiladas with Rojo Sauce 7/10 The burrito bowl was good, but for the price point you may be better off going to Chipotle, I felt that the burrito bowl was a bit soggy. The tacos were good and the tortilla they used was quite thick. The enchiladas had good flavor as well, and I would be interested in trying their enchilada with the verde sauce next time. Their prices have steadily risen over time and they have updated their menu prices as well. One thing that elevated this restaurant to 4 stars is their sauce! The red sauce and green sauce recipe is definitely unique compared to other taquerias. The red sauce bottle helps with the flavor tremendously and without it I would have rated this place lower.

WELL it's up to your own judgement; refer to my transmission oil inhaling and decide for yourself how spicy is their spicy. overall muy bien te amo tacos los tres reyes

    Firstly, be very careful when you enter this location, the turn is very small and kind of hidden. I…read morewent with some family and everyone missed the turn on right and had to U turn and try again just FYI Depending on when you go parking can be difficult, if it is packed I would recommend parking the street over and walking. Most of the food is prepared in a food truck where you line up and order. Seating is next to the sauce bar and they have first come first serve seating. Typical culture is to put the sauce directly on the tacos when you receive them. They give sauce cups if you order to go otherwise they are reluctant to give them out. Currently they are constructing a building around their seating area which is new. This implies that they are generating enough cash to turn their food truck and seating area into an actual establishment. Onto the food review! Carne Asada 7/10 Lengua 7.5/10 Carnitas 8/10 Cabeza 8.3 /10 Suadero 8.5/10 Al Pastor 8.5/10 Suadero and Pastor were top contenders with the most flavor depth. Personally I liked the cabeza as it was very soft, but the flavor can't compare to the suadero. The carne asada lacked flavor in my opinion and was the least tasty out of the meats we tried. Carnitas had that great crunch you're looking for in a taco as it is seared excellently. Lengua was flavorful and super soft just like the cabeza which indicates that they were both braised to perfection. All choices are very solid albeit be prepared for a very greasy meal. The star of the show is their avocado salsa! They offered 6 other sauces in their sauce bar but the avocado salsa was superb compared to the others. This was the only option that had me coming back to sauce bar throughout my meal. They also offered pickled carrots, jalapeños, and onions at their sauce bar to help balance the flavors. Finally the best JD big back tip is to get the large strawberry horchata! It was so good we finished ours before even taking a picture of it! The flavor profile on that beverage is superb, imagine a creamy strawberry yakult that is the perfect option to balance greasy tacos. This is a hidden gem item as their strawberry horchata is significantly better than other restaurants version of it. They also offer other flavored horchata but the strawberry remains top tier.

Food (3 stars) + Tripa tacos are very delicious. Some places make these crispy. It's not here but still yummy in my tummy. ~ Burritos with carne asada and pastor is pretty good. However wifey got really sick. It's Mother's Day today and she's stuck in bed. I ate 1/4 of her burrito but I'm fine. So not sure how to rate this. Taste is pretty good. We asked for no beans so it's a bit plain but I still enjoyed it. - Gringas is like a quesadilla with pastor. It's alright but not worth $10+. I'd rather get 3 tacos! - Carne asada meat has a nice Smokey flavor. However it's jerky like toughness and a bit dry. - Someone in another review was raving about this place having the best Al pastor. So all of that hype made it a bit of a downer since I find it mid. Service (3 stars) + Typical food truck style ordering but it's more of a trailer. They have a little salsa bar with about 4-5 sauce options. Ambiance (2 stars) - Too many loud cars passing while we're eating. I can barely have a conversation with the wifey not that we have a ton to talk about lol. - No restrooms nearby. Daughter had to use an emergency toilet that we bring. - Terrible parking where people park behind you and you can't get out quickly. Yes, it takes them awhile to realize they're in your way.

I usually come here whenever I am craving Mexican food and sometimes it is hit or miss. They have tables outside but sometimes it's too cold at night so I Togo the food home, but they always play some great music there!
