Pork taco was mediocre at best.. also dry and a bit tough. Again what the hell is with the slop pile of cucumber... I love tacos and Mexican food more then anyone., and I truly did try to eat these but in the end had to feed it to the dog. What a waste of money.

March 27th - 6:00p.m…read more Driving down Cook st after a busy day and contemplating what to eat for dinner. Do I put something together at home or do I stop and grab something easy and already prepared? Common question I find myself asking as of late. I notice the Burger Crush food truck looming ahead through the passenger side of the windshield. I start thinking to myself "nah not a burger, I ate one yesterday." As sudden as the thought of a burger is leaving my mind, a new one enters. TACO JUSTICE! And look at that. Parking available right on the street. Alright then. I bring up the familiar website from the warm comfort of my small pickup truck. Brutus burrito - Mmmmm. Yes please. Paid and tipped. Super convenient. Nice. I notice one person waiting for an order. OK cool, this probably won't take too long. I'll sit in my truck for 10 minutes and then go wait by the food truck. Door dasher comes up to the food truck, announces their presence and is promptly dismissed and pointed in a direction away from the service window "your name will be called when your order is ready!" Note to self - ok wow that seemed slightly uncomfortable, they must be super busy. I don't think I will announce myself, I will just let them call my name. Slightly unsure, but curious looking fellow approaches food truck. "Hello sir! Are you picking up!?" Snaps a clearly irritated staff person. "No no, I would like to order." replys the man. "What kind of tacos do you have?" "OK sir, look now because all of our menu items are written down here for you!" They point at the menu with an ever so slight shake of the head. Accompanied by a penetrating glare from a different staff person. 25 minutes pass since I've pulled over and I've now been standing by the food truck for at least 10 minutes. I start to question my decision of stopping here. A few more moments pass until I approach the window to inquire about my beef burrito, half expecting to be rudely dismissed and told to wait for my name to be called. "Hello, I made an online order for Lennon." I say. Without a word, staff person reaches over to what appears to be some far away corner to retrieve my now lukewarm and soggy burrito. I think to my self great, how long has that been there? So I ask. "Ohhh I don't know! Probably 10 minutes"? They respond. Since standing in the cold and bearing witness to such blatant disrespect to customers I have since become slightly irritated. I ask "why wasn't my name called?" to which they answer "that is not our system here, you have to come and say you are here and then I will call your name! I can't keep track and looking out for people with all these door dash people and everything else going on!" I reply "ok but isn't it kind of easy though to just call my name?" "No this isn't how we do it here!" Fed up, I just ask them to hand me my burrito so I can leave. They do. Before turning and walking even one step away, I hear three subsequent bursts of laughter erupt from amongst the food truck. I turn back around towards them, slightly stunned but also not surprised of this behaviour given my previous observations. I ask "why are you all laughing at me as I walk away?" To this I am not answered. I ask again, and tell them it's incredibly disrespectful and rude. Staff member in the middle responds "I'm at work dude!" Like this is normal work behavior for them. By this point I am pretty furious and deciding not to make more of a scene, I turn and walk away again. The same sarcastic and condescending burst of laughter from inside the food truck meets my ears as soon as my back is turned. Not even 3 feet away from the vehicle. I turn around again and shrug my shoulders in a questioning manner before continuing on to my vehicle. Hurt. Belittled. And greatly disappointed. Came for a beef burrito - left with emotional turmoil and a soggy dinner - former Taco Justice Fan and supporter, Lennon Walton

Not only was the food delicious, but the service was also incredibly fast and efficient. You order and pay at the cashier, and then once your food is ready, the staff brings it out to your table. Good ambiance as well. We came around lunch time so it was quite busy and they have a number of tables inside and have a patio outside weather permitting. Whether you're in the mood for tacos, burritos, or enchiladas, you'll find something to satisfy your Mexican cravings here. Highly recommend!

Not worth your time or money. The tacos were poorly seasoned, and I was surprised to have found the…read moremeat quite bland... disappointing considering each taco was $4 and so small too. The tortillas were stale and almost sterile in taste. But the biggest atrocity? The "guacamole" that I paid extra for (both on a taco and on the side) that turned out to be a measly green paste. An injustice to the guacamole legacy, and quite gimmicky considering how much I was charged. It's saving grace: friendly staff. But no matter how friendly... bad food is bad food. Don't bother going here when there are so many better options for the same price or cheaper in the area!

Great sauce, and equally great house hot sauce. The ingredients of both burritos were luke warm at best, cold at worst. My burrito had a couple of bites of chorizo sausage and what appeared to be a small smear of beans... the rest was rice. Most of the burrito was rice only! Sorry, but I can't recommend this place. It's capable of producing far better food, and I like places that are consistent.

I booked a same-day reservation on OpenTable which had a pretty hefty deposit of $70pp (so $140 for…read morea party of two). They had plenty of reservations available. If you showed up without a reservation, you might have to wait for them to clean off a table, but didn't seem like anyone was waiting outside for over ten minutes. What they DON'T tell you in OpenTable: your deposit is applied to your bill but any remaining balance is given back as a GIFT CARD. This is clearly a restaurant choice, not an OpenTable policy. If you are a party of two looking to splurge, you can probably hit $140 without trying too hard (if you get two entrees, three appetizers, a dessert, and either apply the rest for tip or take a $15 jar of mole home). But I do think it's deceptive for Maiiz to have this policy without clearly noting it on OpenTable, especially since the likelihood you're coming as a tourist seems pretty high. Foodwise, everything was fine, I shouldn't judge the flavors against what I could find in CA. I was here as a tourist, and while I wouldn't come back here again, I wasn't upset about my dinner experience and it did provide a nicer dinner ambiance and zero wait. We ordered the duck confit tacos (the server said this was their top dish but it was NOT good, pretty dry and very small), beef barbacoa quesadila (pretty lacking in cheese, not as juicy as I'd like, but it was better than the duck confit), esquites (lime-forward which I like), butternut squash sopecito (just ok), one tuna tostada (very good!), and the cornbread (also very good!). That looks like a lot but we (two females) went home feeling satisfyingly full, with a leftover box of two tacos and one quesadilla. The only other quibble is that their menus are on ipads which are annoyingly laggy.

I took a drink of it and it was indeed incredible. Five stars for the drink. We ate outdoors and it was lovely. Now for the reasons behind the three stars: the food. As much as I wanted to love it, it was not very good. I love the concept of the restaurant and really wished the food had been more palatable. The barbacoa was over salted and barely tolerable. It also lacked flavor. I was happy to find a gluten-free place with good masa, but almost everything is made from it so it becomes overwhelming and unappreciated. I ordered the Chilaquiles with both green and red sauce; both salsas were underwhelming. My husband ordered the posole also with barbacoa which unfortunately made his dish over salted as well. Overall, we would never choose to eat here again and wonder if it is a tourist trap as it is located in Chinatown.
