Some of the best gorditas I've tasted. I recommend the lengua Gordita and the chile verde chicharron Gordita. They moved to a new location, now located in Whittier in front of a park. Some seating available read more

I've been here twice now and the service is always very fast. It's been pretty quiet both times, though, with only a few people there one of the times I've gone. They have outdoor seating as well as a few seats inside. The gorditas are served well and they don't skimp on the fillings, which is great. The not so good part is that I wasn't thrilled by the flavor, but they are satisfying. My favorites so far are the shrimp, chorizo con papa, and chicharron en salsa verde. Worth a try read more

I came on the recommendation of Mexi - Papi, and the chicharrón and nopales torta did not disappoint. The chicharrones were beautifully crisp -- the kind of crunch that only deep frying can deliver -- savory, airy, and satisfying in every bite. I ordered one with red salsa and one with green, each served with a side of beans. And let me say this: beans tell you everything about a kitchen. When refried beans are done right, you know the rest of the food will follow suit. These had that unmistakable toasted edge -- the slight crispness that comes only from proper refrying -- rich, comforting, and deeply flavorful. If I had one note, it would be the generosity of the filling. The torta was packed so abundantly that it fell apart in my hands, forcing me to finish it with a fork. Delicious, yes -- but it loses a bit of the joy when a torta can't be eaten like one. My only misstep was visiting on a day when the outdoor seating was the only option -- not my usual preference. Will I return? Absolutely. But next time, I'll come after 7 p.m. and savor it the way it deserves. read more

The gorditas look amazing when they come out. Definitely the kind of food that looks great in photos. But honestly, the taste didn't quite live up to the appearance. The masa was super bland and the fillings felt under-seasoned, so the overall flavor came across pretty mid. Nothing was bad, but it didn't have that bold, crave-worthy taste you expect when something looks that good. Portions are great and the presentation is solid, but the flavor just didn't match the hype for me. Overall: Looks better than it tastes. Worth trying once, but I was hoping for more flavor. read more

A suggestion to the business owner, answer the phone, text messages or at least update your address timely. I've been going here for about a year and really like the gorditas. I will continue to support if I know where you are located. Much appreciated! read more

Gorditas were really good ...tried 4 different types..worth the drive there ...service is great and the location is clean ..seating in side is ok and outside too but it is hot so keep that in mind..its a lunch truck but they have seating i side a room thats adjacent to the truck...but its legit I definitely will go back..bought a t-shirt too read more

The gorditas were ok, the guisado was good but the gordita was way too thin, we ordered various different ones and they all fell apart, the red head cashier has terrible customer service. read more

I had high hopes for these gorditas after seeing them on social media but was a bit disappointed. The carne asada is kinda bland and not much flavor to it. There are probably other meats that are better but I got two asadas and couldn't finish the second one. I needed to drench it in salsa and wished I had some lemon. Maybe adding veggies would change it up a bit. read more

Great place. A must try!! I think we're going to make this our Sunday spot. Everything we have tried has been great. They have music playing. It makes me want to dance, maybe because the food is so good. They have plenty of parking space and tables outside to sit and eat. read more

Yummmy! Freshness you can tase in each bite. We tried : Surf and turf- the shrimp, pico and avacado sauce was unique! Steak was tasty with the perfect amount tenderness. Rajas the chile poblano con queso was fire!! Perfect in its own way and so mouth watering! Pork belly with red sauce- smoky and aromatic sauce over pork belly was yummy with Right amount of thickness each bite. Pork belly with green sauce- lighter but refreshing flavor was also delicious. Flan with berries- creamy and refreshing end to our meal. The berries were fresh and added great texture. Superb sevice and with plenty of seating inside/outdoor. Highly recommend! read more

I purchased 1 Asada and 1 chorizo con papa and I will not be coming back. The Gordita (masa) wasn't cooked all the way and the rice and beans tasted old. read more

The chicharron was good but asada from the mar y Tierra had a foul taste like barbacua I think it was bad meat. The mole had no flavor. I paid $50 for 4 gorditas and 2 drinks . I didn't even finish the mole or mar y tierra. read more

I've come here a couple of times now and the gorditas have been on point every time. The shrimp gordita was loaded and well-seasoned, not overcooked or rubbery, and the tortilla had that homemade taste and slight crisp on the outside. On another visit I tried the egg with chorizo and it was super flavorful without being too greasy, perfect for breakfast. The salsa and toppings tie everything together, and portions are generous for the price. Overall, this is a great spot when you're craving gorditas and want something tasty, quick, and satisfying. Service was on point btw. read more

My husband used his choppers to help me try the surf n turf menu item (allergic to shellfish) . Service was friendly and food served promptly but he felt the flavors were average. Nothing special. Maybe something else on menu would have different outcome. read more

I went to this place based on a review done by Mexipapa. I was disappointed that my gorditas did look like the ones he got. His looked stuffed. Ours were barely filled and they had more beans than chile verde. The taste was ok but nothing to write home about. But I grew up with really good homemade Mexican food. read more

We ordered the Chicharron Rojo and the Chorizo Gordita to eat there. The food was outstanding. The gorditas had a generous amount of meat. The Chicharron was meaty and a little spicy, not over the top. The Chorizo was also delicious. We ate there, and sat outside on the picnic tables, the ladies in the truck were really nice, and patient while we decided which gordita to try. We took a Carne Asada and Chile con rajas gordita for the folks who stayed home. Those were good too. My only, and this is minor, drawback was that the meat was heavy on top, so you didn't get the beans or beans and rice (ASADA Gordita) until you got to the bottom. Other than that, it was super excellent, and we'll be back soon. read more

This place is the BEST! So fresh and meat tastes like premium cuts. If you're ever at Santa Fe swap meet on a Friday , stop by after

The best Gorditas. The ambiance is great. Best service. I'll go back any day. Can't wait to taste the rest of the menu

It was my first time here and I highly recommend this place. Everything here is handmade and cooked to perfection. I got the chicharron rojo and every bite was heavenly. I've also tried asada and camaron. It was so tender and flavorful. The flan was also homemade made with vanilla exported from Mexico. The service here was nice and attentive. Laura took my order and helped give recommendations when I was unsure of what to order. I would come back again and would recommend this place to everyone! read more

Food quality is the worst. This is an overrated place. Food doesn't taste good at all. Food takes a long time to be prepared and once served it is disappointing. Overpriced and bad quality. I do not recommend this food at all. read more
