I really wanted to give Camchilao 5 stars because the food was genuinely delicious, but there were…read morea few issues that kept it from being a perfect experience. The biggest challenge was the wait. We arrived early and were among the first people in line, yet still ended up waiting about three hours for our food. Throughout the wait, customers were understandably frustrated, and several people voiced concerns. My dad was even offered a complimentary 7-Up after repeatedly being told the food would be "ready in ten more minutes." Parking was another downside. We ended up spending around $10 just to park, which added to the overall inconvenience of an already lengthy wait. That said, every staff member we interacted with was friendly, kind, and professional. Despite the chaos, they maintained a positive attitude, which was appreciated. The restaurant's posted hours indicate they are open from 12 PM to 8 PM on operating days, but by around 2:30 PM they were already telling customers they were closed due to the backlog of orders. Now for the food: it was absolutely worth the wait. Everything was hot, fresh, and clearly made to order rather than sitting under a heat lamp. The beef sticks were incredibly tender and tasted like they had been marinated overnight. The lemongrass flavor came through beautifully without being overpowering, and every sauce we tried was flavorful and well-balanced. The noodles were just slightly softer than I prefer, but not enough to take away from the meal. Overall, the quality of the food is outstanding, and it's clear a lot of care goes into preparing each order. My hope is that they can find ways to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality because the food truly deserves the praise it receives. Unfortunately, the extreme wait time will likely prevent me from frequenting the restaurant as often as I would like, despite how much I enjoyed the food. I would still recommend trying it, but be prepared for a significant wait and plan accordingly.

I'm born and raised in this neighborhood on 22nd ways going here. In the early 2000s - 2015 was…read morewhen they were at their prime for me. But since then and nowadays they have tougher competition that I prefer to go to over them and recently started to develop a hate and love relationship here. It used to be my die hard go to taco truck. This truck for me makes delicious carnitas burritos and pollo tacos. And a sleeper is the al pastor burrito and suadero tacos. That al pastor isn't made from the trompo but the seasoning and juiciness of their version in the burrito is what makes it one of the best burrito options on there if you haven't tried it. Carnitas burritos is super delicious because you get that nice crispiness of the fried tender pork with the rice, cheese and sour cream. I like to ask for onions, cilantro and tomato in mines for variety and freshness to cut the heaviness of the fats and dairy. Tacos I normally would get or recommend is the Carnitas, Pollo, Cabeza, Suadero, and Asada. Carnitas are as delicious as explained with the burrito. Pollo or known as chicken tacos are super tender and juicy. It's also very flavorful, and one of my favorite chicken tacos to get here because most places don't make chicken very well and are usually very dry. The cabeza is super tender and a great option. Suadero just like the asada is just a better version of the asada cut. It's packed with more flavor and seasoning than the asada and slightly more tender which is why I prefer it to the regular steak. I tend to find the asada more dry and sometimes tough. Recently the pricing doesn't reflect on the fairness of the portion size. $4 tacos but the meats aren't as packed. Felt like they started to skimp because of rising costs but has been happening before then. $15 burrito but the sizing isn't as filling as it used to be. I started to see more rice than meat. They've also started to be very stingy with a huge attitude especially the gentleman that works on the pick up station when asking for extra pickled veggies, limes and salsa. And it happens every time for the past several years now. For example he gave me 2 limes, 4 pieces of sliced pickled carrots, 2 slices of pickled jalapenos, 3 radishes, and 1 rojo salsa for an order of a super burrito and 7 tacos. When I asked for extras the gentleman gave me an attitude and said he already did and won't give more. Only reason I still go here is because it's close to home and if my favorite spots for tacos are closed for the night.

Their truck/tent was always colorful and inviting with friendly workers. My favorite and go-to was the shawarma wrap, which was huge, flavorful and delicious. I also liked their lumpia as a side dish. I just tried them again at the Spring Brews Fest in Todos Santos Plaza today and had to get my OG chicken shawarma wrap- it's literally been years since I had it. The wait was pretty long but expected at peak hours of the event. Although it was still good with the flavorful chicken, fresh produce, and tasty sauces, the wrap was smaller than I remembered and more expensive by a few bucks. The staff was working pretty hard cranking out all the orders so I gotta give them credit for surviving during the pandemic and economic crisis. The menu has some other tempting items like my people's pancit, adobo - I'll have to try their combos and the shawarma fries next time I see them in town!

It's located on a large parking lot so there's plenty of free parking. Not much ambiance because it's a pretty casual and straight forward place. They have an indoor space or you can stay in your car and munch on your tacos. Al Pastor is still my go-to and love all the pickled sides they add to it. They also accept card now which is awesome!!!

I looked Yelp and a couple of locations popped up. One truck seemed MIA, the other didn't sell seafood or veggie options, then I looked across the road and a glimmer of familiarity hit me. I pulled closer and remembered patronizing this truck before. I ordered a fish and a shrimp taco. Made to order and I was pleasantly pleased that the fish was diced and loaded into the tortillas. Perfect, compared to usually getting a big chuck of tilapia or a breaded fried piece of mystery fish. This was one of the best fish tacos I have ever had. Condiments are upon request. $3.50/taco No real complaints outside of the outside being the outside lol.

I always order jalapeños, which they usually give me in a bag with carrots. Today the bag was full of carrots with three small jalapeños.

This is a local business that I stumbled upon one night when I was highly craving tacos. I love how they still have seating despite the weather, rain or shine. If you're pulling up to this place, you're in luck -- because they have the best taco meats in all of Oakland. Whether you go for al pastor, carne asada, carnitas, or lengua-- they are all generously seasoned and rich, with that juicy, well-browned texture that makes each bite memorable. From what I've heard, Oakland locals often praise the quality and depth of the meats, and you can tell they're working with ingredients that stand up to the hype. The corn tortillas hold up beautifully too, as they were charred, warm at the edges. It's laid-back street food at its best--tacos that hit hard on flavor and make you want to come back for another round. Honestly, I would be coming here to enjoy with minimal fuss, cash in hand, and a big appetite.

After playing a round of golf, I wanted to visit a food truck for some post-round fuel. Looked up a…read morespot and ended up here. This truck is parked in the goodwill parking lot. They have two trucks, but this one had more people at it, so decided to order from this one. I went with 4 tacos (2 pastor, 2 carnitas) and a super burrito and a can of coke. $36 but my card was charged $39, guessing tax, so lesson learned bring cash. The tacos were pretty good. All the meats were on the sweeter side, but much preferred the carnitas over the pastor. I usually order a super burrito , and what I didn't realize was that a super burrito here means a larger burrito. At first I was like , why is it $20 - then when I got it, it was so massive that it could feed a small family or for me it was multiple meals. The burrito itself was tasty, I thought the carne was good, again a little sweet tasting, but the rice beans and sour cream made the burrito simple yet good. I ate half for one meal, then saved the other for later. Overall, it's one of those spots that I'm glad I tried it, and if I was in the area, I'd try it again.
