It's Cinco De Mayo and to our surprise there was a strong aroma of Mexican food in the lobby and to our surprise a MEXICAN FOOD truck parked right outside our apartment complex! I just moved here from Hawaii (if you didn't know Hawaii has pretty horrible Mexican food). We decided to give them a try and I am SO GLAD WE DID! We got the Birria Tacos and 2 Asada Tacos and OH MY GOSH! IT WAS ALL SO GOOD! If you come across this lovely green truck make sure to grab something from them! read more

BEST tacos I have ever had hands down! Not enough to say you got to try them for yourself.

My partner and I tried this place for the first time and we loved the food. We ordered a regular huarache and and an order of tacos dorados (comes with 4). The wait time was about 20-30 mins due to the amount of people already waiting for their orders. There was available street parking for it being a busy street. The only thing that was inconvenient is that they don't have their prices up on the truck, so it can be annoying if you're hoping to know how much you're going to spend. Other than that the prices I would leave them up to you to decide if you think they're fair or not due to the quality of the food. Mi pareja y yo tratamos este lugar por la primera ves y nos encantó la comida. Ordenamos el huarache regular y una orden de tacos dorados que viene con 4. La espera fue entre unos 20-30 minutos porque había bastante gente esperando. Había parking considerando que es una calle con mucho tráfico. La única cosa que fue inconveniente fue que no habían precios de las cosas listo, entonces uno no sabía cuanto estaba gastando hasta pagar. read more

Ok I was super hesitant to order from here but it was late and my other option was tacbell so we gave it a shot ordered thru doordash. I ordered birria Ramen that came with a birria taco and I ordered an extra birria taco. I was a bit curious about the Ramen and at $11.99 was maybe expecting some sort of homemade noodles. Well we got a fantastic laugh because it was basically tapitio top ramin which cost $1.50 at the grocery store. Honestly we just laughed and said well you got us...then we opened it up and it had their birria and consume as the broth and filling along with some cheese. There was a big with onions and cilantro and some sauces. The birria tacos were good not sure they were fried in the chili sauce as usuall but still tasty...do add cheese to them and make sure you get the consume. Now back to that ramen...I ain't even mad at the 90% mark up for it because that was some dam good ramen. At 1030pm that was definitely a great choice. Thr birria sauce is thick and kinda absorbs into the noodles and there was a good amount of meat. This is a total comfort food. If back in the area I would definitely order from them again. I eat a lot of birria (it's kinda a weakness) and this was up there with my favorites. read more

Food was excellent. I did a search in the area for places that sold shrimp tacos and they were one of the only in the La Brea area near Century. It was 10PM and most places were closed so I rushed over. I ordered the shrimp quesadilla and had grilled onions added. They gave more than enough shrimp and didnt hold back. The shrimp was well seasoned and had its own juices that filled the quesadilla. I also ordered the beef and shrimp birria, which were filled with cheese and the shells were crispy, but not too crispy. Just the way I like it. It was tasty and I highly recommend both of those items. Oh I forgot to tell you-they make the tortillas fresh by hand and to order, so it's extra fresh. The ladies who run it were extra friendly and had great customer service. They were patient as I choose what to order and their attitude was helpful, especially since it was 1030PM. Their truck is extremely clean and they followed Covid protocol by wearing masks and gloves while preparing the food. Anyone who eats here, will really enjoy the experience! A definite must if you're in the area. read more

Definitely worthy! Delicious food semi healthy with the shrooms and zucchini but it is yet greasy and savory with spices. Located between 106th and Hawthorne Blvd. In Inglewood read more

El Grito - Aguas! - Food Trucks Near Me - Inglewood, California

2 times this food truck has taken 20-30 minutes+ to call out the food. They will not give refunds. I gave it a second shot to see if it was just a bad day for them or something the first time - it was not. Food is ok... Not worth the wait time. read more

The food here is amazing!! It was our first time and ordered different things to try: a super quesadilla de asada, tacos dorados and a sope. Super quesadilla is a HUGE hand made tortilla with zucchini, sweet white corn, mushroom and choice of meat. Delicious and fresh ingredients! We ordered it with asada and the meat was finely seasoned. Reminds me of something mi abuelita would make in Mexico. Tacos dorados (4 per order): ordered two asada, two shrimp... nicely fried and good tasting. Will definitely return to have more shrimp ones! the sope: HUUUGE!! Im used to sopes being small... this one was heavy, topped with lettuce, crema y queso fresco... delish! Highly recommend!! La comida esta muy rica y los ingredientes frescos. La comida tiene buen sazon y pronto regresaremos... se lo recomiendo! read more

Mucho bueno . Cinco estrellas. Considering it is located in Hawthorne it was actually pretty good . 5 stars ! P read more

Very delicious and the staff are very helpful and generous....the the burrito and the tortas I recommend them anytime to anyone

Okay so looking for a late night craving that would satisfy and this here smacked!! I would revisit when I'm in Cali again!

The birria tacos were awesome! Definitely recommend when you can get your hands on their food.

Seriously best huarache ever! I ordered the super huarache, i loved that it had grilled zucchini and corn. Which your typical huarache doesn't. I recommend this spot! So fresh and great quality. It is unique! I think this will be my new spot to come to. Also, my boyfriend had the Tacos Dorados and he said they were delicious, great texture! Try this spot out, its a must when in Inglewood, Ca. read more

El Grito - Super Huarache de Carne asada - Food Trucks Near Me - Inglewood, California

I had a el Grito Huarache and man is that thing stocked up with toppings. You pay a premium price here but those ingredients are high quality and taste great. The ladies working there are so pleasant and happy to serve. Definitely recommend. read more

The food was good but the customer service was not. I waited well over 30 minutes for my tacos. The reason for the delay is because customers (who were likely favorites of the truck owner, also gentrification personified) just walked up, placed an order, and trumped everyone who had already placed an order. I feel that the charm and politeness was turned up and on for them but not for those who paid previously. Having observed the interaction I was simply disappointed. I wouldn't return simply on my experience and hope that El Grito understands that orders should be taken and served in order, and not based on favoritism. read more

SO BOMB. We got the super huarache and the birria quesadilla, both boat shaped and the size of my forearm. Huarache: BOMB. Quesadilla: BOMB. Will definitely come again. Can't wait to try all their other stuff. read more

This food truck has the bomb veggie burritos! Everything is freshly made to order including the tortillas. The burrito is huge.......big enough for 2 people to fill up on or definitely leftovers for lunch the next day. You get a lot of bang for your buck. Do yourself a favor and check this food truck out. read more

I ordered a regular quesadilla with alpastor and a shrimp taco. Tortillas were delicious and fresh. The taco was a bit too plane for my taste, seems like it needed a creamy sauce on top but it was good. The quesadilla was huge but they gave me the wrong meat, I got chicken instead, so off the back I wasn't going to enjoy eating it :( I would've given them 4 stars probably if the order was correct. They give you a side or Curtiss with your quesadilla and that was good too. Make sure you ask for extra salsa since they only give you one with the order and if you're like me and likes to drench it with salsa then ask for more. read more

Im not sure what happened with the other reviews,but my experience was dismal. We ordered the birria tacos with cosomme and a taco dorado. I should have checked my food before I left, but as we were the only customers (that should have been a clue), I figured everything would be okay. WRONG! The birria tacos were slightly dry and we didn't receive any consomme. I didn't take more than 1 bite. The taco dorado was NOT a taco dorado. It was an extremely dry regular taco with an excruciatingly dry shell and overcooked asada. There was no crispy shell or any toppings as described by the cashier. What a waste of money. We didn't finish our food and instead drove to another taco truck to get proper tacos. read more

New place I tried for the first time last night. I ordered a pastor burrito and two asada tacos. The meat quality was very nice, no fat on asada. Even though the meat was on one side of the burrito and the rice on the other, it was very good. read more

This Taco Truck and Catering Service is excellent. I tried it last night for the first time. It was definitely worth it! I ordered several items: The crispy Birria tacos (3) and a Biria Mulita. My chef friend ordered the Birria Ramen. It was the third time he ordered it and said it was just killer! I enjoyed all the food so much and would definitely make this Truck my go to for delicious, innovative, and fresh Mexican Specialties. All the ingredients are very fresh and the food is made to order. This includes the most delicious tortillas I have ever had. They are pressed on site and cooked to perfection. Imelda, the owner is a talented and skilled chef who takes a modern approach to the traditional food. It isn't heavy and you can taste the freshness. The staff were all very friendly, wore gloves and masks and the truck has hand sanitizer, is clean, and easily recognizable by the bright green color. Last, El Grito has three very tasty salsas that are just the right spice levels. Must be experienced. read more

We stumbled upon this truck unsuspectingly while cruising home. The wifey was starving and craving tacos. Funny enough we didn't leave here with tacos, but rather a spread of other delicious Mexican creations. The price points would seem high were it not for the fact that the portions are quite large. Even the quesadilla was a behemoth. I loved the huarache which I would compare to a pupusa except it's larger, oblong, filled with pinto beans, and made with a denser masa dough. The chorizo on top really made it! We also tried the birria ramen which was good, don't get me wrong, but it's an inventive fusion that may not work for some. The birria on its own was delicious, tender, and deep. We may have been in a food coma when it was all said and done, but it was well worth it. read more

I've driven to this location twice, once in April & in May. Both times on a Sunday 8-9 pm. Searching for the lime green food truck was a total waste.The truck was MIA, yet on Yelp and on their own website it shows up as open. I've called, only rings, No voice mail. It would be courteous & professional of them to inform us of any changes. They're failure to do so has lead them to lose great customers. read more

This place place is very clean, you can tell just by looking around the inside is the truck.

The lady was awesome great customer service and the food was just as good!!! I will be going back to this spot great work yall

Called on two different occasions trying to see if they are on grub hub, door dash, or Postmates They keep saying DoorDash but are failing to understand there name isn't popping up & they don't seem to care ! I also came in person & had to wait 40 for some hard shell tacos because they where so busy trying to get out the door dash orders now when I want to order from door dash i can't find it LOL ! Food is good but customer service needs to better read more

Took a walk to this taco truck tonight & ordered a few items! The service was okay, a bit slow because things were fresh to make as our food still had steam coming off when we opened it. As far as the birria goes, it needed more flavor but the tortilla was very good! And it's only $9 for 3 with consome! The tacos dorados looked really good as well, will have to try next time! read more

This is the best food truck in Hawthorne!!!! This is my forever go to. I believe i had almost everything on their menu lol & when i say everything is good i mean it. They give you big portions , I've never gotten full off one taco but here they get the job done! The wait times are kinda long but when you're getting good quality fresh food who cares about the wait , right ? If you want amazing Mexican food go to EL GRITO the staff is very friendly & efficient. Needless to say i love this place read more

Gave me incorrect items on my order the birria ramen didn't have any broth. How do you order 7 tacos and you don't get any hot sauce and only enough lemon for one tacos and only enough cilantro and onion for two tacos how ? Please I love your food but this time you got wrong smh read more

Not worth it. Prices are kind of outrageous for a hood truck. I spent so much money on a few things and didn't even receive all of my food. i was missing at least $12 worth of food. Oh well, i'll never be coming back; no thank you. read more

Absolutely the BEST MEXICAN FOOD I HAVE EVER HAD! And I've had hundreds, plus from San Diego. The tortillas are chewy they're so fresh and the huaraches I recently discovered and can never go back. The only thing I don't like is they're not open 24/7. My day is ruined when I see they're closed on door dash. I seriously can't get enough. Please open a restaurant!!!!!! read more
