    Stopped by in Whittier after hearing about their Sonoran-style tacos and the beef rib in particular. It's a food truck parked along the street with a few tables set up and plenty of parking nearby. Service was actually pretty quick when we went, even though it was busy. We ordered the Costilla (Beef Rib) Taco, Arrachera Quesataco, Sirloin Lorenza, Pastor Sopes, and a Frijol y Queso Burrito. The costilla taco was definitely the highlight of the night and honestly the main reason we came. It lived up to what I'd heard -- really flavorful and worth ordering again. The pastor sopes were also really good. Everything else was solid across the board, especially on their handmade tortillas. Overall, it's a great stop for Mexican food in the area. I'd come back, especially for that beef rib taco.

    Still don't know how we ended up here but we did. We walked up to the food truck food smelled so good. We were greeted by a very nice young lady. My husband and I were a little confused with the names of the meats and she was super helpful, not only that but she gave us samples of the meats and their aguas (maracuya is so good). Food was very tasty, meat was freshly cooked which is a big plus. salsas were ok, they could be a little more spicy but still ate them . Definitely a spot we will come back to. Happy with food & service.

    My friend raved about this new taco truck near The Groves community so had to check it out. Got a sirloin and rib taco with their homemade flour tortilla for both. The tacos come with onion, cilantro, and guacamole. They also have three different salsas (green, red, and chunky). The tacos come with a side of cucumber, lemon, and grilled onion and pepper too. The flour tortilla is so soft and chewy while the meat is tender and so flavorful. The rib taco also comes with the huge rib bone so you can eat the remaining meat and cartilage off the bone - bombb. Service is super friendly and the taco truck is right in front of a huge grass area if you want to eat there. Can't wait to come back!!

    The best tacos in Whittier hands down! It was my first time here and I had driven past a few times before but I finally made time to actually stop! And it was the best choice I could've made when I went around 9pm on a Wednesday and there were 3 people there. First off the lady was SO NICE! I told her it was my first time and I asked which of the meat choices was most popular the sirloin or arrachera and she assured me both were very popular and she gave me a sample of both and they were out of this world! Tender and juicy and full of flavor and she let me know the Lorenzas were very popular it is a corn tostada with a layer of cheese that they crust on the flat top, the meat guacamole onion and cilantro and if you order it especial they add a fried jalapeño stuffed with cheese and I ordered one arrachera and one sirloin I was in heaven! I wish I had been hungrier because I would've ordered one of every item that is how good they were! She also gave me a sample of the homemade flour tortillas estilo Sonora while I waited and I dipped it in salsa (I tried all 3 red, green and a chunky casera) wow!!!! The best customer service I have ever received from a food truck! When I finally received my food which was within like 2 minutes I admired how perfect the Lorenzas looked took pictures and she gave me a side of grilled onions with cucumbers and lime. The last time I had tacos this good was in Monterrey Mexico but wow these are just out of this world. I will definitely be back and bringing my family and just telling everyone and their moms about this taco spot because it is insanely good! I almost forgot she also gave me a sample of their horchata and their passion fruit agua Fresca and just insanity how delicious both were the horchata was creamy and deliciously sweet not like others I have tried that just taste like milk this is a drink I could have for the rest of my existence! And the passion fruit drink was delicious and refreshing and sweet but not overly sweet either both perfect! I enjoyed my food there as they have tables and little stools in the grass area which is perfect as you get to enjoy the fresh air and delicious food and not have to wait to devour your food until you get home. If I could rate it I would give it 20/10

    Some of the BEST tacos around. I've been trying to find tacos better than these and nothing yet. I ALWAYS end up coming back. Everything is so good and flavorful. They have HOMEMADE flour and corn tortillas. The meats are top quality. The salsas are to die for!! Although it's a taco truck and some might go based off of that, the service is amazing!!!! We are regulars and they are such a sweet family. I will always keep supporting them. The ambiance is relaxing and they have a few tables there for people to enjoy their delicious food. Give them a chance!!!

    When are they there?!! Have stopped by during their reported hours, even hours updated a few weeks ago and always miss them. Have only seen them once on my way somewhere else :/

    i thought i missed them when i went but they were like 2-3 blocks farther down on the same street than every address i've seen for them. there are quite a few trucks and stands on that street

    One Of The Best Hot Burritos In Town & Their Hot Sauces Are On Point. I Highly Recommend Them!read more

    I went on a taco run yesterday to try to find the best taco in Whittier…read more Started off the run with a keto taco mixed with asada and al pastor and then a regular tripa taco. Keto taco - toasted/grilled cheese instead of a regular tortilla - needed to be done a little more on one side as the cheese wasn't quite toasty enough to stay in place to slightly resemble the shape of a taco. Bit hard to eat, covered my hands in grease. Asada tastes almost boiled, and this being my 2nd or 3rd time getting the Asada here, it consistently tastes like it was boiled and not grilled. Unsure of meat quality or preparation, but there are no grill marks and it's a bit chewy. Same with the al pastor. Tripa taco was bizarre. Strips of flat skin instead of the usual roundish, cylindrical shape of tripa (intestine). Usually a saltier, fattier meat than asada, which is my preference but the one here was lacking in flavor and the texture threw me off a bit. Tripa can be chewy - unless requested extra done, which is how I normally order it - but there was no saving this tripa. I think it needs to be sliced differently, the cuts made it inedible. Brother shared some of his chorizo taco and it was the better of the bunch. Red chorizo, TJ style, although it was also lacking a teeny bit in flavor... onions and cilantro to the rescue! Still, mediocre. Salsas were ok, nothing out of the ordinary. Don't think the tortillas were homemade. Service was fine, cashier takes your order, dude at the counter was chill and had a friendly attitude. Seating was limited. Mostly bar style seating but the majority was in front of a window and it had so much heat trapped from the glass that it was kind of uncomfortable. Other seats are too close to the bathroom. Good for a quick bite or just pick-up orders. Wouldn't plan a sit down/dine-in visit. Parking is scarce and has really small spots, wouldn't come if you're driving a pick-up truck or anything like that. Food was reasonably priced, which is good, however; the food was lacking so I would not return.

    This morning, I decided to break from my usual routine and forgo attending a service, opting…read moreinstead for a quiet moment at a local coffee shop. The idea was to enjoy my coffee while getting organized--paying bills, planning calendar events, and having the opportunity to focus without any distractions from my usual surroundings. In search of the perfect spot, I turned to Yelp, a reliable resource for uncovering hidden gems nearby. Upon stepping into the coffee shop, I was immediately greeted with warm hospitality, setting the tone for a delightful experience. The ambiance of the place was truly captivating--it was bright and welcoming, infused with an aesthetic charm that instantly put me at ease. I couldn't help but be intrigued by the design elements throughout the shop, which added an inviting touch to its overall atmosphere. Before I settled in, I asked the staff if I could snap a few photos to capture the essence of this delightful space. They graciously welcomed my request, and I was shown to my table, which, quite uniquely, was designated by a number--a small detail that I found charming. As I browsed the menu, I encountered a small conundrum: I wasn't entirely sure what to order. I wanted to break the mold and try something out of the ordinary. My curiosity was piqued by their exclusive offering of Café de la Olla--a traditional hot drink that piqued my interest right away. I ultimately settled on a hearty plate that included rice, beans, and enticing potato tostones, accompanied by two beautifully cooked sunny-side-up eggs. As I waited for my order, I noticed the café was filled with the sweet sounds of old-school music from the '60s and '70s, which only enhanced the cozy ambiance while I sipped my drink. Now, let's talk about the food! I must say, I rated the café itself a solid 4 out of 5 for its overall charm, while the rice earned a respectable 4 out of 5. The beans were rich in flavor and received a fair 3.9 out of 5. The potato tostones, delicately bathed in a savory red sauce, stood out with an impressive score of 4.3 out of 5--these are a must-try if you visit! And as for the sunny-side-up eggs, they were good, but hey, eggs are eggs, right? Overall, the entire experience was quite enjoyable, from the delightful food to the warm atmosphere. A special shout-out goes to Ana, whose exceptional customer service made my visit even more memorable. The combination of fantastic service, inviting aesthetics, and satisfying food truly made for a perfect morning retreat. I can't recommend this spot enough for anyone looking for a relaxing place to unwind and focus on what matters.

It was a cold day and we were hungry so we got the large Cocido De Res and the Costello De Puerco with a Pina agua Fresca. Cocido De Res - Very good, like my grandma used to make. A huge portion of beef in the bowl, good sides to add in so you can control the spice level. The Mexican rice was very flavorful and the tortillas were fresh. I don't care for corn tortillas but I liked them a lot here! Costello De Puerco - Great, delicious salsa verde. The chips went well with the beans but it was overall a great dish with a nice big portion. Pina Agua Fresca - They give you a huge cup, they even put the leftover in a to go cup and it lasted all day! It was delicious and fresh. Overall it was a solid 4/5, would come back if we're in the area and in the mood for Mexican food.
