    A very rare savory truck! When I say rare, to match the quality and taste of their food, it's incredibly hard! Specifically their shrimp durado tacos. I been here once before and had them, and everywhere I went I kept trying to find similar tacos and you can't! So I was in the area today, stopped by and grabbed four of them. My goodness, my stomach is beyond happy lol. The sauce on top of the tacos is a hit, tomato, cilantro, onion and garlic I believe. The taco itself is a deep fried hard shell taco, with shrimp inside, potentially a little bit of papas too! The truck is city licensed and health licensed with an A. If you payment method is credit card, then you'll need to order online. On the food truck there's a QR code. So you scan that and place the order online for pickup. Alternatively cash payment is accepted. Lastly, their shrimp cocktails are super delicious too! If you're in the area try this food truck and if not, try there actual restaurant, though I believe now because how good their food truck is going, it's open on weekend only (the restaurant).

    Muy decepcionado de la calidad cóctel de camarón, era más agua y sin sabor se sentía flat para pagar $12 por small cup mmm no vale la pena !

    Crunchy, soggy goodness. Service is always quick and reasonable. This is a lunch truck at a park, there is usually shade, but on the weekend maybe bring your own chairs. There are horses there sometimes. Family friendly, so be respectful of the location and cleanup after yourself. CASH ONLY or you can order on their website at least 20 min before

    It's no surprise that I'm a food truck fanatic. I've known about this food truck for years, and I never stop by. I was in the mood for some seafood, but didn't want the hassle of a restaurant. I was looking for something quick and delicious. This food truck is located in front of a park, well known in the area. So you get a little bit of both combinations great food with outdoor views where you can also relax at the park and eat your food. If you go on the weekends, you'll probably see people horseback riding at the park which is pretty cool. This being my first time I went with their tacos Dorados de Camarón they were really good. They were crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside with great flavor from the shrimp. I also decided to try their aguachile rojo which was really fresh and enjoyable with the perfect spice. I will definitely be coming back again on the weekend now that summer is around the corner and it seems like a great idea to eat seafood while relaxing at a park. The perfect combo. Even though there where a couple of people in line service was really quick. The owner was taking the orders quickly and the food was coming out quick as well.

    Taco dorado de Camarones con 2 pedazitos de Camaron!! Ya ni la chingan

    Food has always been good but lately it's been disappointing every time I go back the portions of vegetable to shrimp get worse I bought 5 shrimp tacos and got about 2 to 3 lil pieces of shrimp If that in each taco I got one that was all vegetables very disappointing especially when ur really hungry and craving it

    No avocado wtf.

    They're getting stingy with ingredients. Last time I bought 10 tacos dorados and I was only given half of a small avocado. Then fast forward today, i bought 5 tacos dorados and got no avocado.

    Some people aren't the biggest fans of food trucks but don't let that deter you. This food truck is amazing if you don't feel like driving to LA for mariscos. Food is fresh and delicious. I love ordering my tostadas, sitting on a park bench and watching people riding their horses and hearing roosters crowing. The girl taking orders is friendly and the preparation is super speedy. The restaurant down the street is great too but their hours vary.

    A customer from Taquizas Gilberto suggested I come here after I told him I gave up Mexican food for Lent. He said that they have one of the best tasting shrimp tacos around. I agree, it was pretty tasty. I was however very full since I just ate a bunch of stuff from across the street! So, I may need to return to fully have a better taste with a fresh appetite.

    I am so in love with their tortas mixta. Always craving for their mixta. Their red sauce is really spicy but goes well with seafood.

    Best Oysters! And tacos dorados de camarón. The only thing I don't like is how early they close on weekends. I wish they were open later.

Service: Sweet and friendly faces! They serve you up as quickly as they can and are also patient if you need to decide what to get. Food: As a vegetarian, I cannot give my own opinions but I will relay the opinions of my mother. The options are all good and very flavorful. Nothing was dry. Still juicy and delicious! The Lengua/Beef tongue and Cabeza/Beef head is her favorite. You serve yourself cilantro, onions, etc. Use the baggies for what'e in the tubs and of course the sauce containers for the pico de gallo, salsas, and guacamole. This is a small street food business that's well-lit and you can tell they keep things neat and organized. Overall, I'll definitely take my mom back for more and let my niece try stuff too!

They make their tortillas fresh and I loved watching them make the mulitas. There was so much cheese, I was convinced to get one! We visited mainly for their Papa Rellena (a Mexican-style loaded baked potato) and it did not disappoint. There's nowhere to sit but it's a great spot to grab your food and take it home. There's lots of sauce and topping options as well. We'll definitely be coming back!

Don't forget to try the beans bc they are my absolute favorite, super flavorful and I don't even like beans too much! For our last couple parties we did the watermelon cucumber lemonade and on a super hot summer day it is SUPER refreshing!! Lastly, set up is pretty easy.
