Food poisoning. Nothing has price stickers and you never get an itemized bill. Absolutely unprofessional workers. Many canned foods are expired. Better check those expiration dates. Overpriced everything. They shamelessly take advantage of the neighborhood since there are not that many groceries options unless you drive out of your way. There are no pricing stickers on most of items. You buy blindly then they overcharge you at checkout when it's too late. The open food containers contain cold dry servings i would not feed to my dog. They should be fined by city inspectors. I can't believe health officials let it operate. Somebody os getting paid under the table..

The texture and flavor paired together great with my chorizo taco. Now to the negatives!!! carnitas and the taco shells Firstly, the carnitas should have never been sold, I would have been absolutely okay if they suggested to order something else. The meat was so dry, like almost jerky dry. Not only were they extremely dry and cold, the portion was extremely small. The taco shells was also a let down. They looked and tasted as if they were (probably are) generic store brand shells. 5+ bucks for a taco, the shell needs to be better. yellow rice Dry and tasteless! Nuff said Hopefully they fix these issues cause there's a lot of potential!

So flavorful and packed with the spicy meat! Each order comes with two corn tortillas and there's a station with the fix-ins that you can add. They have all kinds of salsas with different heat levels. They also have avocado sauce, roasted jalapenos, cilantro, diced onions, etc. You go inside the convenience/grocery store to the register to pay for the tacos you want! And you just give your ticket to the cook inside the food truck! Make sure you also buy drinks inside to go with your tacos! There is indoor seating and also outdoor seating!

Unfortunately, I do feel inclined to leave this 1 star review for the safety of other customers. I spend around $40 at La Poblanita, I bought some interesting snacks and stuff like that. It wasn't until I got home that and more closely inspected all these items that I realized that almost ALL of them are expired. Not just recently, half of those being expired in 2022. I bought various popsicles and every single one of them were heavily expired and appeared to have been completely melted and then refrozen again, and unbelievably freezer burnt. These popsicles contain dairy so I consider this a serious safety concern. I was so pleased with the inside of the store that I didn't even think not to trust the items being sold. I am shocked that these have gone unnoticed. What a shame. Please be aware of this when shopping here.

REALLY GOOD TACO TRUCK!…read more Taco Don poncho has become my husband and I's favorite quick meal for busy week nights when we don't feel like cooking. Our go-to's are the Carne Asada or Campechano burrito which are very hearty and filled with all the classics - rice beans, lettuce, cheese, sour cream. They serve the burritos with three salsas: a hot, medium verde, and mild pico - all three are delicious! The staff is friendly and the food is always ready very quickly. If you're familiar with Cranberry. they are located in the Buds sud's discount beer parking lot off of Dutihl road. Give them a try!

4.5 stars. El Colibri is a local Mexican brick-and-mortar restaurant and food truck…read more I was a customer of their food truck at Pittsburgh's Veg Fest. The employees were selling gluten-free, vegan foods including tacos, huaraches, gorditas, and tamales with a choice of protein of oyster mushroom birria, potatoes with bell peppers, soy chorizo, and cactus. They were also selling sides of elote street corn, esquites corn, mango on a stick, watermelon cup, and agua fresca. The foods looked tempting, but I had many other food vendors to visit yet, so I hear I purchased only one agua fresca, which I think cost $5. the employees spoke nicely with me. The agua fresca, which contained blended fruit, water, and sugar, tasted very good.

Literally so good, please do yourself a favor and come here!!! They were so sweet (they let us…read moresample the cactus!) and their chicken taco is just immaculate.

The service is fast, they make it in front of you, and you have the option of picking some stuff up at the grocery store while you are there. Friendly family type ambiance and it feels good to know you are supporting a small business like this. At $4 a taco, when they are generous with the authentic meat filling, double up on the freshly grilled corn tortillas, and allow unlimited toppings made fresh daily make these tacos one of the best deals around. The filling is already super flavorful, so you don't necessarily need extra toppings, but I like adding extra onions and cilantro. For me, a lot of the salsas were extra spicy, so my recommendation is to taste them before putting them on the taco. The ones I got honestly didn't need any extra added flavor. I got the steak and onions and the pork with pineapple and loved them both equally. I got them last week and already miss them - the smell and texture of the meat, the fresh toppings, how your breath tastes after, the combo of everything together - definitely a solid taco joint

Its website says that its supermarkets offer several thousand products such as meats, fruits, vegetables, baked goods, and more. I do not recall shopping at their supermarkets, but perhaps I should shop there. So far, I think that I have been a customer of only their tent that was set up at the Pittsburgh Taco Festival in 2025. I bought one al pastor (pork) taco and one bisteck (beef) taco for about $8 total. The employees had the meat pre-cooked, so I did not have to wait long for my tacos to be ready. My husband and I shared the tacos, and we both enjoyed them. My husband said that he liked the flavors of the meats.

I wish all for trucks did this! The food was ready very fast and smelled amazing. The chicken tacos were a little spicier than I expected but not too spicy. I definitely enjoyed them. While the empanada was a nice size with a great texture, I have to say I was disappointed that the beef didn't appear to be seasoned and had nothing in them but beef. Empanadas I've had elsewhere have been well seasoned and often contain other ingredients in addition to just the beef itself. I did see a girl eating what must've been the potato and cheese empanada. If I order another empanada I think that's the one I'd try in the future.
