    I got a smothered burrito Al Pastor and added cilantro, it was very good, probably one of the best I've had in okc. My husband had the 5 street tacos and he said they were some of the best he's had as well. My only complaint is that I'm pregnant and wanted extra sauce but they basically handed one (not the one I wanted) to my husband while giving him a really dirty look like he'd done something wrong. We would've offered to pay the extra of the sauce I wanted (I just wanted two of the green sauce) but they made it out to be a big deal so we just gave up. If not for the interaction with the employee it would've been a five, but I just feel like we left feeling like they were mad at us for asking for the side of sauce.

    Sign that my day has taken a turn for the GOOD.

    So, my peeps, this is only to add that the smothered burrito is bigger than life and I dream about it.

    Ok, so I don't eat at many taco trucks because many have lackluster food and questionable sanitation. Last night I was out with a friend and decided to try this taco truck in Angles parking lot at NW 39th and Pennsylvania. After talking to a few people, I decided to try their street-style tacos. The plate is $5 and you get 5 tacos which you can mix and match your proteins. I decided to get 3 chicken and 2 steak. First off, presentation and quantity of food is easily 10/10. They fill their tacos with so much meat and toppings I should have stopped after eating 3. The toppings they include are cilantro, onion, and a lime wedge. You are also given a red sauce (spicier) and a green sauce (mild). The flavor in these tacos is also amazing! They are so good! I am only giving this truck 4/5 stars overall because they only accept cash. Otherwise, it would easily get 5/5. Definitely try them out if you're in the area!

    The food smelled so good, I just dug into it without taking a picture! I had the barbacoa mulitas. My wife had the tacos and my son, the torta. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The torta was on beautiful, fresh bakery bread. Bring cash! Bring friends! Come hungry!

    This truck is run by a very nice family serving up quality authentic Mexican food at great prices. Especially those yummy tacos. Filled with a good amount of seasoned meat, diced white onion and cilantro, they cost $1.00-1.50. They are the the average 4" size, come with two tortillas each, served with grilled onions, toreados chile and pickled carrots on the side. Asada has good flavor, small tender chunks, goes well with their salsa verde. Carnitas even better, pulled pork with slightly crispy pan-seared edges. The al pastor and chicken were my two favorites on this visit. Both stewed in a tasty, peppery marinade, lots of flavor! Turns out El Dolar is not king of the dollar taco. These guys are the real deal.

    First time checking in and giving it a shot seen its always busy so thought lets give it a shot. Well not excited the meat is cut way to thick they use nacho cheese sauce thats bland had better at 7-11 and that bad But will go try one more time they have a decent menu but Carna Asada Fries are NO BUENO Tacos Rapidos Colorado still on top

Ambiance: Very loud live music and chaotic in general. More chaotic than a standard Mexican restaurant. One visit, tacos were being cooked outside on a Santa Maria style grill. Food: Birria Tacos are the best thing on the menu. Cheesy, juicy, and packed with flavor. Topped with cilantro and wonderful consommé. The white sauce is a great addition as well as the green sauce. The Pin Wheels are not the best for the salsa. The salsa is mediocre and also spicy. The Surf and Turf Quesadillas are cheesy and packed with meat. The same meal as a burrito is good, but not preferred over the quesadillas. The Ceviche is out of this world. A heaping portion of perfectly citrus and not too fishy. The only meal that was not good was the Marlin Quesadilla. It was too fishy and tasted like fishy BBQ.

We didn't get photos of all of our food, but everything we tried was really enjoyable. The service was attentive, and our waitress was very patient with us as first-timers, I had a few questions about how some of the menu items were prepared, and she was happy to help. Nice use of space isn't as it's not the largest restaurant- there's a bar area, then a layout of tables and booths that would work great for large groups. Will return again the next time we're in OKC area to grab a patio seat.

There were plenty of tables and places to sit. The hostess got us to a table and we sat and ordered our food and talked and caught up. There was this guy I can only assume he must've been a manager, he kept hovering over our table, making sure our drinks were filled even after we had got through eating and just kept hovering like he was waiting for us to leave. I looked around the restaurant and there were plenty of tables that were empty. So I don't understand why he was hovering over us and trying to rush us out of the restaurant. It was probably the worst experience I've ever had at this restaurant. I don't know if he was just racist or if he was just being an asshole, but either way if someone comes in to pay for a meal and is sitting down and talking in the restaurant isn't busy. I don't see why there's a reason for you to turn around and try and force people out. To say the whole experience turned me off and I will probably not go back to this restaurant for a while.

It was very busy when we walked in but there was no wait. We were thankfully seated immediately and started off with chips and salsa. The chips were nice and crispy, but the salsa was mediocre. The tomatoes tasted canned. While I can totally get the efficiency behind using canned tomatoes for a busy restaurant, the taste is not preferred. The kids chicken quesadilla plate was a good amount of food! I just wish the quesadilla was already sliced as it was for our 3 year old. The chicken was also bland. Again, the portions were great. My son ordered the Burrito La Herencia with ground beef and this was seasoned well. Again, great portions of beans, rice & main dish. No complaints with this one! My spouse ordered the La Herencia fajita special and felt as if it was lacking. The steak pieces were minuscule and the shrimp was bland and undercooked. The pork chop was thinly sliced which was nice but VERY salty. We were wishing for more peppers and onions as well. Overall this dish was salty, but tolerable! It came with a side plate of rice, beans, pico de gallo, guac, sour cream & lettuce. Served with flour tortillas. We ordered the queso & guac while we were looking at the menu and waiting. I personally did not enjoy the queso. It was thick and had an artificial mouth feel. The guac was decent! Bland overall but I love the taste of avocado. I wish it had more lime and seasoning though since it was supposed to be Guacamole and not avocado dip. I ordered the Steak Mexicano with extra jalapeños and this was very good. Still on the salty side but I enjoy things on a SLIGHTLY saltier range. My spouse thought the steak was TOO salty. The peppers, onions, and tomatoes were nicely sautéed and seasoned. The rice here is also DELICIOUS. I hate a bland Mexican rice. The beans were good too but nothing to write home about. I do wish I was offered a side of corn tortillas. Overall this experience was okay! Not the worst but definitely not the best. The restaurant was beautifully decorated but there was a noticeable lack of music. We were sat listening to the chatter of all the different customers and kitchen noises. We did have the option of booth or table AND they have boosters seats/ high chairs upon request.
