Food: - Churros are made fresh to order and hand-dipped in a generous coating of cinnamon sugar - Texture is perfect--crispy and golden on the outside, while soft, chewy, and slightly gooey on the inside -The cinnamon sugar ratio is spot-on, and because each churro is hand-coated, every bite is packed with flavor Sauces: Honestly, the churros don't need sauce, but if you are a sauce person... - Chocolate: Rich, smooth Ghirardelli chocolate - Lechera: Classic sweetened condensed milk - Blueberry: Surprisingly bold blueberry flavor - Coconut: Unexpected favorite that adds a unique tropical twist and pairs surprisingly well Service & Ambiance: - Located in the same parking lot as Brother's Cousins Tacos, making it the perfect spot to enjoy tacos and churros - Eric, the owner, is incredibly kind, welcoming, and passionate about his craft - The recipe originated in Madrid, Spain, and Eric added his own Mexican-inspired cinnamon sugar twist since traditional Spanish churros are not coated in cinnamon sugar

They have a lot of options for dipping sauces. I like the classics - chocolate and lechera (condensed milk)! They are extremely friendly and efficient. They're chatty if you are in the mood, and will happily share their story. The parking lot they're next to is a free-for-all, and there are usually a bunch of other food stands set up. There is no seating, you just grab and go. A lot of people eat standing by their cars. I've brought a lot of other people here, and so far everyone agrees they are the best in the city!

$2.00 tacos in this economy? I didn't even think this was possible! My friends and I stopped by…read moreBrothers Cousins Tacos on a Thursday evening around 8:00 p.m. and there were only a few people in line in front of us. I ordered four tacos in total: two al pastor tacos, one lengua, and one cabeza taco. You start by ordering on the left side of the stall, pay for your food, and work your way right where all the garnishes and sauces are. Of the tacos I tried, my favorite was by far the cabeza. The meat was fatty and rich and melt-in-your-mouth tender. I would definitely recommend a squeeze of lime and raw diced onions to help cut the richness for a more balanced bite. With the al pastor, Brothers Cousins has a bunch of meat already sliced and diced up on the grill top, which unfortunately means unless you're getting the pieces of meat that are directly contacting the grill, you're not going to get the crispy bits that make al pastor so delicious. You do get a piece of pineapple with the al pastor, so that's a nice touch. Not my al pastor, but far from the worst. Overall, I cannot recommend Brothers Cousins enough if you're in this area -- the tacos here are seriously delicious and you're getting insane value. I hope they're able to maintain the $2 price point well into the future.

It's a popular spot, but the line moves fast, and the service is friendly and quick. I love that they let you self serve the grilled onions and peppers.

I'll definitely be back, and I want to try their burritos next time.

I've been to this taco stand & never had a problem. But after getting a carne asada quesadilla and…read morecarne asada taco ($16), that I was unable to eat, because the meat tasted like gas. I had ingested several bites of it, (with hot sauce), but I couldn't take another bite. The meat was chemically contaminated & I got sick not long after for the whole night. It was important for me to tell the person that runs the stand. I had the best of intentions to help this business and wanted nothing in return. I walked up to the stand & asked the woman who takes the cash, (with the sharp eyebrows), if I could please speak to the person in charge, (or owner). At first she ignored me & then said, "I don't understand - no speak English." I asked who speaks English and she sent me to the back of the line by the cooks. I stood there for another 10 minutes and no one wanted to talk to me or answer my question. I told them that there was a big problem with their meat the night before & had brought back the entire meal, so they could try the meat. No one did anything except talk to each other in Spanish, (which I understood). The cook graciously offered me a replacement meal & tried to problem solve. The tall man, who spoke English, (as shown next to cashier Karen in the photo), was going to give me a replacement meal. I waited 15-20 minutes. I asked for the chicken quesadilla, and the vitriol that came out of cashier Karen, who said she didn't speak English was unbelievable. She refused to give me any food and said I had to pay $6 for the replacement taco. I tried to tell her that it was a replacement and she kept yelling aggressively at me and said, "no - you pay $6. You're not getting anything " and that I, "never bought any taco." She became angry and verbally abusive because I was getting a replacement meal, as a solution to my getting chemically poisoned. She was a bully and aggressively yelling at me to humiliate me in front of the other customers & personnel. By this time she had no problem speaking English. (A group of young ladies started talking to me, felt bad that I was the focus of cashier Karen's rudeness. They complimented me & wished me a good night.) The guy next to cashier Karen handed me the bag with the quesadilla. I asked cashier Karen for her name and she ignored me. Then I asked the guy next to her what her name was and he put his hands together like duck lips and rudely opened and closed his hand at me, (meaning that I'm talking to much) This was extremely inappropriate & as soon as I left, I threw the food out, because I didn't trust or hold it past any of them to have put something nasty in my food. By the way, there was never a possibility that I would be refunded. By this time I was so upset, I was sorry that I had generously tipped them the night before. Even cashier Karen's response to the tip had been of surprise; but then I remembered she had not even acknowledged it or said thank you, after receiving it. What this staff does not, is that I owned and operated a successful fine dining restaurant & wedding venue for 17 years. I have done consulting for small restaurant businesses, pro bono, in order for the businesses to financially thrive. I know how food is cooked, how it should be stored, when the oil needs to be changed, marketing, accounting, et al., as well as the health dept's requirements, in order to keep the public healthy and well. What I believe happened to the meat and reason I took my food back to the taco stand; is because they had been out of chicken. Since there was a meat shortage, more carne asada needed to be barbecued quickly. An abundance of lighter fluid was used to quicken the process & it possibly got on the grill, where the meat is placed; and the cooking process started well before the coals were ready. It shouldn't matter whether you go to a restaurant, food truck or taco stand, customers should be treated with respect, kindness & consideration - and it's called customer service. A customer shouldn't be lied to, yelled at, insulted and humiliated by any employee of the business. It should be run in a transparent and professional manner. I'm 64 yrs young & have never written one negative comment or review about any restaurant. Nor have I ever been treated with such disrespect, malice and ill intent. I felt it important to tell my story because nobody should experience what I did; in eating compromised food and then being made to feel like I did something bad. This is what bullies do and I've never had a problem in clarifying right from wrong, as well as responsibility and accountability. I didn't have a choice and had to give a star.

They even have a table with seating so you don't have to dit in your car or on the curb to have it fresh. Service is always friendly and they change the agua fresca options regularly which is nice. It's cash only and prices are really worth it for the value. Toppings like grilled onions, cilantro, tomato, and cucumbers are self-serve as well as two spicy red salsas, salsa verde, and an avocado crema. The tacos al pastor are my favorite though my friends love the pollo and the carne de asada so everything is just solid. Burritos are massive and also delicious.

Super tender steak, perfectly melted cheese, and a really well balanced mix of flavors. The salsa bar is no joke either. There are plenty of options and each one actually tastes distinct. I am especially a fan of the green salsa and the avocado salsa. I could not even finish my burrito in one sitting, and when I reheated it the next day it somehow tasted just as good, if not better. Which honestly says a lot. Huge bonus points for convenience since it is right next to Ralph's. There was no wait when I stopped by, and my food was ready within a couple of minutes. The stand was clean, the staff was friendly and efficient, and overall it is exactly what you want from a solid Mexican food spot. Fast, flavorful, and reliable. I will definitely be back.

It's basically a party at the stand. That all averages out to 4 stars for me. We got there at 4:30 p.m. on a Friday and didn't take our first bite until around 6:40 p.m. There are very few meals worth waiting more than two hours for. While Miya Miya serves what's probably the best chicken shawarma wrap I've ever had, I don't think it's worth a 2+ hour wait. That said, if you take away the wait, these are absolutely five-star flavors. The incredible crunch of the wrap, paired with the pomegranate and garlic sauces, makes every bite crisp, rich, and ridiculously satisfying. And don't sleep on the fries. They're some of the best I've had and are absolutely worth ordering alongside the shawarma. I'll be back once these guys open their brick and mortar spot. Take away the insane wait times, and I'd make Miya Miya a regular spot on my rotation.

I stopped by to grab dinner with a friend, and was surprised at the amount of food we got considering the prices they were charging. We started off with a sizable Cecina Taco ($1.50) that came with two layers of corn tortillas, thin Oaxacan marinated pork, pico de gallo, guacamole and a drizzle of mole on top. The marinated pork was meaty and tender but the salty marinade was one-dimensional at best. The guacamole was not as thick textured as it should be, but the sweet flavors overlapped nicely with the pointed onions, cilantros, and chunky pieces of cecina. It was mouthfuls of deliciousness. I also ordered a Lengua Torta ($4.50) that looked like a humongous whopper with wide torta buns, a spread of black beans, chunky lengua with easy to shred texture, lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onions, and mayo. The buns were a tad on the frail side and I'm not a fan of lettuce in tortas or other types of sandwiches. However, it is the largest torta I've seen in a long while, and they also threw in a lot of chips, pickled carrots, a jumbo jalapeno, and a side a dull spicy lingering salsa that could use a hint of smoke to complete the value meal. Overall there was little to complain about as they were very thoughtful at wrapping our food so the temperature and freshness can be maintained without making a mess by the time it was brought home. The best part of the meal was their bottled non-dairy Strawberry Horchata that served as the perfect finisher. I love horchata and have been struggling to find the non-dairy version so from now on I'll know where to get it. To sum it up, I'd characterize their cuisine as one that puts a strong focus on freshness, good value, and a breadth of ingredients that were tasty when layered together. I can't say this trick is better than the authentic taquerias in the Mission District, but for a food truck, their extensive offerings beat the heck out of the many gourmet trucks where a generous wholesome meal and hard to beat prices can be expected. I'd love to return to try their Tlayuda and Tasajo plate.

The thing about the al pastor here is that it comes in pretty big chunks, which I do like! The al pastor is also not greasy and has a good flavor to it. The burrito is pretty big too. There's fresh salsas on the table next to the truck, and I think I'm more of a fan of the salsa verde. My friend had the chorizo tortas. Good flavor on the chorizo, although it is a bit plain. We also got the nachos to share, but that was pretty forgettable. Not a bad spot for some truck food if I'm in the area. My buddy who lives around the area says it was the best in that area so I'll take his word for it haha.
