La Catrina came highly recommended for its tacos, but the corn tortillas were tough/chewy, and the al pastor meat didn't pack a lot of flavor. Maybe I caught them on an off day? Overall positive experience, but the al pastor tacos just didn't have the punch I was hoping for. I liked the salsas, and the pozole I sampled while waiting was AWESOME. I think the way to go next time is an al pastor quesadilla with a cup of the pozole. Wonderful customer service. read more

THE BEST food truck so much variety and delicious green/red salsa. My go to is asada burrito and the barbacoa taste just like back home southern TX. Give them a chance you won't regret it. I've been buying here going on 2 years and ulala. I would recommend to call ahead and order because they get busy and it's for a good reason. read more

On my journey to find the best taco truck in New Mexico and as of 9/23/21 this is the best! I have tried this place twice and both times, the quality of the food was clear. Here is my favorite dishes, al pastor and asada tacos, and the barbacoa tortas. I have tried all the meats and they're all amazing, so juicy and flavorful. The best are al pastor, asada and barbacoa for sure(I might just not be a birria person). I will try the different kind of dishes next time but I bet they will also be amazing. Do not cal yourself a taco lover if you do not come here ASAP!! read more

La Catrina - Food Trucks Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Part of me doesn't want to write this review in fear of the amount of patrons they'll receive, but they deserve this review! We tried a new taco truck tonight located over on Juan Tabo, just north of Lomas, in the Salmon's parking lot. We've passed them a few times, but finally decided to give them a try. Total experience? Probably 4.5 stars and well worth the future recommendations I'll be giving my friends to come here. We tried the Catrina Box, a Carne Asada Mula, the Quesabirria tacos with 16oz consommé, and Al Pastor tacos. The Catrina box is well worth the $22 and completely shareable amongst 2-3 peeps. My favorite meat was the Carne Asada because it's incredibly flavorful and not dried out. Unfortunately, the Al Pastor was my least favorite as it was dried out. The flavor was there, but wasn't as great as the Birria and the Carne Asada. All dishes came with a side of onions, red salsa, and green salsa. The salsas are ON POINT! They give just enough bite to let you know the heat is there, but the flavor packs a fantastic punch to the palette! The consommé was a wonderful savory mix with plenty of Birria thrown in. My only complaint there is there was a bit too much oil resting on top, but that's easily pour-off-able. The flavor beats its local competitors--not kidding. It's well rounded with salt and seasonings so you don't just feel like you're consuming meat broth. Give this place a try if you're hunting for the perfect Quesabirria, you won't be disappointed! read more

The fact that this little taco truck sits so close to my house is dangerous! I typically get the gringa which is a quesadilla, you can fill it with whatever meat you want. I have tried the carne asada, the Birria, and the al pastor. My favorite has to be the Birria, it's tender, full of flavor, and the juice is amazing. They're always super friendly and say hi to me when I show up. If you live in the area or don't, definitely get this little taco truck try! You won't be disappointed read more

Yum!! This food is truly delicious. Everything I ordered was wonderful, but the star of the show was the Al pastor. It is the best Al pastor I have ever had. It was tender, succulent, and seasoned to perfection. We also really enjoyed the carne asada as well. I highly recommend this food truck. read more

Every now and then my gf and I split a Catrina box on the weekend, it's such a treat.

Amazing Food - Plain and Simple!!! The Birria are the best in Albuquerque, if you can find them.

If you are looking for authentic Mexican tacos this is the place! About a week ago I had some family come over for dinner, and since this food truck is located literally down the street from my house I decided to give them a call. The staff was so friendly and helpful, they suggested a "box of tacos special" witch was the perfect amount of food. They were the best tacos I've ever tried, at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend. read more

La Catrina - Tacos al pastor, asada, barbacoa and birria! - Food Trucks Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

The best tacos in Abq! This a family owned food truck that does not disappoint.. food portions are large and they always throw in extras. The birria is so good, and don't get me started on the torta. The truck is kept meticulous and I am picky about cleanliness and they get 5 stars on this alone. Anytime we have friends over this is our go-to for a good meal. This truck is gourmet out of a food truck. read more
