My friend and I were hungry late at night and we stumbled upon this food truck. The food was reasonably priced and tasted really good too! I got a steak burrito, which cost about $15. It came with a side of sour cream and some salsas. I found the portions to be pretty generous and the flavor was great. Definitely a good spot for Mexican food and especially a good option at night! read more

I always go for the birria tacos but now everything changes they hardly put any meat i said with everything they just give me the tortilla with cheese I'm so mad because I drove 45 minutes to get the tacos . Don't waste your time read more

Amazing birria tacos, a gem if you want to hit Termini Bros Bakery for desert. Docked a star because I asked for chicken but was given a different red meat instead, which thankfully didn't matter to me too much but for others with restrictions it might be something to be wary of and emphasize when ordering. Birria was amazing and perfectly crispy. read more

I only have two words to describe it. So good! I'm planning to work my way down the whole menu. read more

Found this great little spot by a lucky chance while trying to find food after work this evening during this corona bs. The owner, Issa? (I believe that's his name I could be wrong. these masks muffles words). I was craving tacos too, so me and sis decided to order from this humble truck. So many options!!!!! That is the best, especially the options for tacos, in my opinion more the merrier! My sis was pleasantly surprised they had tripa (intestine) and I was excited they had lengua (beef tongue) so we ordered just that. The tripa taco took a little longer, which I did not mind at all (I always say- all good food takes time) Issa told me he wanted to make it on the crispier side, lots of customers prefer it that way. All in all it took about I'd say about 20 min. There wasn't really a line at 1030 pm, but I received wonderful customer service and he was just so nice and cheerful. The food: lengua taco looked epic. Nice crispy edges but very soft and flavorful could be the best lengua taco I've eaten in a looooong time. Came with a whole grilled onion , and two hot sauce on the side with limes. Perfecto! The tripa taco.............. OMG! Yes. So much yes! Yes yes yes! If you like the "weirder" stuffs, go for this! The intestine was crispy on the outside and just gooey and not so chewy like boiled intestine is. It was melt in your mouth goodness. The flavor was spot on! I really was going to steal my sisters plate (And keep my own) but I was soooo full! The portions were great! I believe it was 3 tacos for $9 (great pricing) It's Enough to get you full without making you feel like you over did it. Ahhh. I would definitely intentionally find this place again- or maybe order for delivery since they do that and deliver to my part of town of south philly. Thanks for the wonderful meal! read more

This place is amazing. We moved here recently and we're so thrilled to find this gem. The tacos are amazing. I've been consistently getting the chorizo tacos and my husband has been getting the pescado tacos. He loves them. I want to try some of their other things but I'm always afraid of messing up a good thing. The only thing that I'd say is to be prepared to wait a bit for your food because even when we show up early, we still have to wait 15 minutes or so for them to make it. read more

Really tasty tacos, Especially if it was the case that I was smoking weed. I really think that this is a solid food card even though I've only had one item on the menu. I just really am doing this yelp thing for free food because it's fun to get free food. Thanks and peace and love to all. read more

Absolutely amazing tacos. You get tons of choices of meats. It may take a little while but just grab a cold drink and wait for something awesome. read more

Excellent. We drove from Glenside PA!! Thee best and freshest food ever. Service was great and the the guacamole was excellent. My taste buds are very happy. My daughter is happy. Thank you for really good food. read more

I would describe their offerings as a whole, good but not great. The tacos are the best thing on the menu, those are pretty great. The burritos and quesadillas? Probably too much cheese. Yes, there is such a thing. I've also had a torta which was pretty great. But that brings me to another point, one torta + a soda was $15. Call me crazy, but I've paid for large hoagies that have only topped out around $9-10. Their sodas are $2. So, did I pay for a $13 sandwich from a non-gourmet food truck? Something doesn't add up. The pricing seems to be flexible, and not in the favor of the customer. But, they're in my neighborhood (7th & Tasker) from 2pm to 3 or 4am nearly every evening, so I can't complain about that. read more

One of the best taco spots in south philly!!! I can't stop to catch my breath while eating because it's so good

Absolutely amazing food that they make at La Sarten. Have never been so satisfied with Mexican food ever like how much La Sarten's nice and juicy Birria Tacos have. They have a nice delivery guy, excellent service and even arrived on time. The Birria tacos were absolutely brilliant. Theres other places where they charge $11-$15 for some skinny and thin tacos with barely any meat and spices on it however their Birria tacos are just filled up nicely with all that juicy and tender meat and you can taste the nice crunchy onions with the small bits of cilandro and the nice umami flavor coming from the perfectly melted cheese, absolutely brilliant. Also their radishes and lime are nice and fresh and it has that little kick of spice to it and the salsa verde and roja are both amazing they have that tangibg flavor that you want on your tacos it's delicious. The soup is even better. You can taste all the spices and if you add that lime to it it's even better. Would order from this place again and I will La Sarten makes the best food out there read more

These Texan-Mexican American fajitas devours come from @lasartenexpressfood in south philly! This food truck sits right on 7th and Fernon street and they stay open until least 4am. They take debit and credit. The menu is really easy to read and navigate. While here, I was taken care of very quickly.m and my food didn't take long at all. I ordered the famous shrimp tacos. The shrimp was grilled to perfection with grilled onions, peppers, and warm fajitas wraps over a bed of orange rice. The food was absolutely amazing and very affordable! I will definitely return here in the near future but if you have a taste for some really bomb Mexican food truck food? Please check out @lasartenexpressfood and tell them Shimmy sent you! #food #foodporn #foodie #foodphotography #foodphotography #foodstylist #foodstagram #philly #philadelphia #shrimp #fajitas #mexico #mexicanfood #texas #texasfoodie #american #rice #water #art #pictures #latenight read more

This taco truck is open for late night cravings. They have a variety of tacos, tortas, snacks, small packs of medications, and drinks. How convenient is that? read more

Waited over 30 mins for 3 burritos with no one else waiting ahead of me. The food was underwhelming and left much to be desired. The rice was super dry and hard almost like they scraped the bottom of the pot for the last bits of rice. Food was bland and the protein used in each burrito was also overly dry. We came here because the usual truck we go to was closed, but for $13/burrito this will be a hard pass the next go around. There are plenty of taco trucks nearby. Do yourselves a favor and go to any one but this. read more

Overpriced and not worth the wait. I got a shrimp burrito that was a bit boring. This neighborhood has plenty of Mexican options, so I wouldn't recommend this truck. read more

I believe this truck also resides on 7th and Fernon at night, but anyhow... I ordered the steak fajitas, and my girlfriend got chicken fajitas. The portions were huge; I probably got 3 meals worth out of 7$. They have a ton of Bimbo baked goods that I thought were weird, like frosted toast (rebanadas). My girlfriend has said that their tacos are pretty exceptional, but I can't speak for myself. They also accept credit cards, which is pretty decent. read more

I had an Al Pastor Torta last night and vomited it up this morning. Have never gotten sick from them before but this time I did. $11 is too much for what was a very poorly made sandwich, even if I hadn't gotten sick. read more

Authentic Mexican tacos! Cuerito is my favorite Better than many of the taco trucks I used to frequent when I lived in LA. Cash only read more

Love love love the Chorizo quesadillas. I find myself here most late nights. Can not beat the quality and service.

Got a shrimp burrito about a month ago, was amazing came back with friends last night and was embarrassed. Inconsistent food and portions. Literally the burrito was half the size of what they show in pictures and we ordered the same thing but they forgot to put the beans in one of them. Highly disappointed with taste and service. read more

Located on 7th just below Tasker, the folks here offer the closest thing I can compare to the quesadillas I came to know and love in Chicago (two words: queso chihuahua). The refried beans and rice are good if not great. I see lots of stuff on offer you wouldn't find elsewhere that I'm looking forward to trying (e.g. cabeza bistec)and yes, they have a LOT of Bimbo as well as Barcel. read more

I used to swear by this place. It's a food truck that DELIVERS. Their food is tasty, but their service has gone down hill. I ordered, as I usually order at least once every 2 weeks. Their delivery time is usually a little longer than I would like, but I dealt with it because I liked their food. This time around I waited an hour before calling to see where my food was. No answer. I called again no answer. They just never showed up. If they were having some type of problem, they should have called and told me they were unable to deliver the order. They had me waiting and waiting. Not to mention, they raised their prices significantly from when I first started going there. A chicken quesadilla and 3 steak tacos used to come out to $12. Now it comes to a whopping $20. I will pass. Especially in a part of the city where there are a plethora of good mexican restaurants. read more

Ordered 2x al pastor, chicken, and steaks burritos.. Burritos were very small. Very horrible portion for the price of $10. I've tried this place before, but recently trying I would have to say I would never again. Disappointed and hungry. read more

I really do like this taco truck. I'm a big fan of the Cemita and the Burrito. However, it is expensive for what it is. Burritos are $9 and some of the Tortas are between $10 and $12. Food is fresh and it takes them a while to make your order (which is fine, because it's fresh food). They are open super late, so that's nice if you work late . read more
