I had high hopes after seeing the great reviews, but unfortunately the burrito was a big letdown. The positives first: the customer service was friendly, my order came out incredibly fast, and all of the ingredients tasted fresh and were served nice and hot. The salsas also tasted fresh, but they were pretty bland and had almost no spice or kick to them. The biggest disappointment was the premium arrachera burrito. For $17.50, I expected the meat to be the highlight, but instead the burrito was mostly rice and beans. The filling was also very soft and mushy overall. The arrachera itself was chopped into tiny, fatty pieces with very little flavor, and it got completely lost among the rice and beans. It didn't have the grilled, seasoned beef flavor I was expecting from a premium burrito. Maybe this is the new standard, or maybe California food costs are forcing restaurants to cut corners to keep prices where they are--I honestly don't know. But at $17.50, I expected a lot more meat and a lot more flavor. I don't mind paying premium prices for premium food, but this just didn't feel like a premium burrito. The fresh ingredients, fast service, and friendly staff were all appreciated, but the burrito itself didn't live up to the price or the reputation. read more

It's a good size taco well put! When I'm craving tacos, this spot is the one that satisfies the crave! The ladies that take my order, very kind, very friendly, and very welcoming!

AMAZING. It was so good that we inhaled it before we could take any photos. The sirloin is definitely the winner.

Mochomitos Asador - Al Pastor Burrito with a Strawberry Horchata - Tacos Near Me - Whittier, California

Known for their carnes asadas, you should come try it out at least once. // Food: Tacos (Chorizo, Sirloin, Arrachera) Flour tortilla tacos are a staple of Northern Mexico and Mochomitos does them right. The tortillas took me back to visiting my family in Mexico! The menu is not huge, but there is something for everyone. Being that it was my first time I stuck to tacos and was not disappointed. The arrachera and sirloin were delicious, the tacos are topped with onions, cilantro and guac. I would probably pass on the Chorizo next time as it was just alright, but it was a good taco as well. // Restaurant: Its on the side of the road, there is plenty of parking, and they have a few folding tables and plastic chairs to sit around at. The truck is always busy and it seemed like most people were taking their food to go. Service was really quick, which was surprising after reading all the posts about them taking forever... // Notes: 3 tacos and 2 lorenzas (for the wife) was like $21. In this economy, that is not too shabby for a food truck. read more

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. read more

Amazing tacos! Great service! Delicious aguas! Service is outstanding! Highly recommended.

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. read more

We've been here a few times and it never disappoints. I've only tried their burritos and tacos... All very good.

Best tacos ever clean yummy and great prices quality of service and food cheers to the chefs

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!! read more

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 read more

I have no clue how this place has 5 stars but then again there are only 21 reviews . 1 hr waiting for food and it wasn't that busy maybe 4 people a head of me. The tacos don't make up for the wait and frustration. There are about 5 other trucks in the same area that have the same quality. This place should have less stars. Never again ! My order was quesadilla- 2 queso tacos and a sope. read more

Try the tacos de costilla con costra de queso. oh and dont forget the agua de Jamaica...

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!!! read more

Obsessed! Loved the maracuya and the tacos! Very fast and love how sweet the employees are :)

No Chinguen, abran más temprano. Ya todos los negocios están abiertos y sirviendo y Ustedes hasta las 5pm

The food is so delicious. We had the arrachera in tacos, a burrito, and on the potato plate and every bit of it was amazing. The tortillas (both corn and flour) were hand made and fresh. On top of that the the salsas offered were sooooo good. We will definitely return for the food, and customer service. FYI, they are cash and Zelle only. No cards. read more

I believe you have to try this place at least once while you're in Whittier. The food tastes great and the service is very good! This was my first time trying this place and the tacos were so good I forgot to take a picture! I will say that they were a bit skimpy on the tacos de Arrachera though. Nothing like the amount of meat that you see in the other photos. I was really amazed at the size of the burrito! I mean look for yourself! It's the size of my forearm. Aside from the small meat portions on the tacos, I will definitely come back to try out their Costilla tacos. They look really good! read more

4.5. great flour tortillas. arrachera nice and smoky . costillas also good. the bone they give you is more for show. they literally scrape every last piece of meat off it so theres nothing to even gnaw on. sirloin also good. quesotaco is nice but not necessary. really really good truck. it wasn't at the exact address listed everywhere, but was 1-2 blocks further down on the same street. lots of trucks and stands on this strip. read more

Love this place! I always try and take all my friends and family here for their tacos. Quality of their meat alone gets me coming back (especially their beef rib). read more

This food truck is so underestimated! The food here is amazing. I especially like their Sirlion burrito! They have an interesting speciality where if you order the costilla, they pack you the remaining bone! They mentioned that they make tortilla from scratch. The person who takes our orders are always so nice and patient with us. They also have some seats and clean tables outside of their truck, so you can enjoy your meal right when it comes out. They also have a wide variety of sauces ranging from mild to super spicy. Everything is super clean and nice. REMEMBER THEY TAKE CASH OR ZELLE ONLY! read more

Don't sleep on this truck. I know there's lots of taco options but none serving Sonora Style. The meat selection is great the owners are super friendly and appreciative. The food never disappoints. read more

This place is delicious!!! I ordered the Lorenzo with Arrachera. It came with fresh tender meat, melted cheese, guacamole, onions and cilantro, all on top of a fresh crunchy corn tortilla. They also provide fresh cucumbers and grilled onions with Jalapeño. The aguas here are made from scratch and taste amazing. I tried the horchata and passion fruit. The meat is perfectly tender and full of flavor. Great location to enjoy the delicious food and chill with family or friends. read more

Burritos and sopes are delicious. I usually get arachera. Chorizo is good too. I just wish they had a spicier red salsa. All their salsas are very mild and not spicy at all. Other than that, very recommendable read more

If you haven't tried out this food truck, I highly suggest you give it a try. Been coming here since they first started a few months ago and it's like no other that I've eaten at before. To start off, I'd highly recommend the castilla taco, because not only do you get a taco, but they also give you the rib bone with meat on it . It tastes like premium steak meat, cooked on a fire grill. A bit crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside with full of taste. Second, I'd suggest trying the Lorenzo taco which is their specialized taco that comes on a crispy bed of tortilla, with your choice of meat, cheese, guacamole and a large bell pepper. All of the ingredients come together in a perfect concoction of taste. Not only is the food great, unique and consistent, but the people that work there are super friendly. Out of the many times I've been there, I've had the pleasure of 3 different people taking my order, and they've all been extremely kind and patient whenever I had questions about the menu. They're fairly new, so I hope they start getting more notoriety, since they serve really great tasting quality food. Try it out and you'll definitely be hooked. read more

I really recommend this place. The burritos are fantastic. The customer service was really good and they were nice to me and my family

Amazing burritos! This is definitely my new spot for tacos and burritos. Tortillas made on the spot. Clean

My favorite taco spot in the area. Costilla tacos are so good here. Normally a corn tortilla guy but the handmade flour tortillas here are excellent. read more

Let's start with the food 1) Asada was amazing 2) Beef ribs seemed to be good quality but we're burned which killed the taste 3) Rice&Beans extremely average 4) Al pastor was horrible! It seems that the owner respects meat quality but doesn't respect his customers. Service was horrible! 95 min wait for food at a taco truck is a disgrace. Respect my time. When ordering I was told the wait was about twenty min. Business model is broken when you have a line of people waiting for food and you choose to continue taking phone orders making the wait even longer. One person cooking one piece of meat at a time? Not worth the wait.......... #Disrespectful read more

Delicious. Flavorful. Curious. Amazing hand made tortillas. We tried al pastor, sirloin and rib and they were all winners. Even their Jamaica was the best around. read more
