    Been clamoring to come to Simōn ever since I read about them in the L.A. Times. Finally got the opportunity to do so over the weekend. It did not disappoint! What really caught my eye was that Simōn is unlike any other taco truck, as it has very exotic seafood taco concoctions. Since it was my first time, had to get as much as possible. Got five tacos fish al pastor, Baja-style fish, soft shell crab, shrimp & pork, and enchilada suiza. Fish al pastor was the one that intrigued me the most as I had never seen that before. Had that nice sweet, pineapple marinade flavor that I would have expected from regular al pastor. Baja-style crab was a solid fried fish taco. Soft shell crab was a whole soft shell crab, which kinda surprised me. But it perfectly fried and worked well as a taco. Shrimp and pork was alright, but it still tasty. The one that really surprised me was the enchilada suiza, as it's effectively shrimp and avocado taco layered with melted cheese. That one was quite delicious! Staff here were really friendly, no complaints from me. Having come around 2:30 pm, there was no line to speak of. Probably got lucky on that front, as there were several people that ordered after we did. Since everything was being made fresh and there were a few people that had ordered before us, it took us 25 minutes to get our food. I don't mind waiting because it was fresh out of the kitchen and piping hot! Parking can be a bit of a challenge at it is in front of a market with a small parking lot. Ended up having to park on the nearby street. However, the market is helpful though as they have seats outside where you can sit to eat. Overall, I was expecting something exotic and creative from Simōn and was not disappointed! Worth the drive and would love to come back.

    Awesome taco truck. Among the top tier fish tacos in LA. Ordered three tacos: pork (cochinita?), fried crab, and the white fish with avocado. Each were big, packed tremendous flavor, and were unique. Really liked this place. Would recommend and would come back. Thank you Simon LA

    One of the best ceviches ive had with such fun, unique, and delicious salsa bar. There are some tables nearby (in front of yummy supermarket) but overall ambiance is food truck casual. Service is friendly but wait is typically at least 10 mins or more. Makes sense bc they make/fry their food right when you order. Highly recommend their ceviche, soft shell tacos and alpastor fish

    The al pastor fish taco really is delicious. Filled with the depth of flavor from Al pastor but lightened as it is made with fish. The sweetness of pineapple pushes the flavor up even more. Freshly made means a little wait as it is prepared and it is worth it. Also, service was very kind and helpful.

    Some of the best fish tacos I've had in LA. Lovely staff, unique menu options. There is serve-yourself salsa station with an impressive array of house made choices. Do yourself a favor and get a crunchy fried fish taco and eat it right when it comes out!! There is limited seating out front, but you can usually snag a table in the shared space between the truck and Pine+Crane.

    Pro: spicy salsas, creative seafood tacos. Grow: wait times, a bit pricy but worth it. I was taking a walk around the neighborhood and came across Simón. Luckily I was hungry and craving seafood which is their specialty. They serve creative tacos such as pescado Al pastor. The quality of the hand made tortilla and homemade salsas easily earned them my top rating. They do not have seating available, however, there is some green space with benches where you can enjoy the tacos. Food: I tried the pescado Al pastor which is a spin on pork tacos Al pastor. The portion size was great and it came with a slice of roasted pineapple which complimented the taco nicely. This was my favorite taco and I would easily come back to order more. Secondly, I ordered the shrimp and pork taco which is a spin on a deconstructed camarrones a La momia. The taco was also very well balanced and had a nice texture. The salsa bar had unique flavors I had not tried such as carrot habanero. I loved that they don't hold back on spice. Overall, this is a high quality and flavorful taco truck. I will definitely be back to try more of the Mariscos.

    Got to try this truck for the first time this past weekend at Eeeeatscon! The soft shell crab is fantastic and worth the hype. Wait time a little long, but worth it.

    Food was good. I think they may be short staffed the same person taking the orders is the same person called out the orders. Her voice was very soft. People kept coming up to the window to ask if their number was called. They may need to invest in a microphone. Will be back again.

    One of the best fish tacos I have ever had! This is a food truck, and we were lucky enough to be at Eagle rock brewery and they were there on a Sunday. The food can be a little pricey but it has to do with quality. The ceviche was so amazing that I ended up ordering a second ceviche because I didn't want to share! I really wanted a fish and shrimp mix but the mixed ceviche had octopus but they were kind enough to create one for me without it and it was amazing! My husband and weren't a huge fan of the "el pastor" style fish taco but I think to is one of the more popular tacos. The gentleman working there was also very kind and helpful. Highly recommend coming trying this place out.

    91°F in Silver Lake in October. Let's head to Simón and grab some tacos, and actually remember to take some photos this time. 6 months ago, we stumbled on Simón after doing some shopping at the adjacent Farmer's Market, and have been meaning to return. We walked right up to the window at 2pm and ordered the Fish Al Pastor Taco, the Soft Shell Crab Taco, and the Octopus Taco. I opted for the Steak Quesadilla this time around as well, both because I was in the mood and because I couldn't find a picture of it on Yelp. The cousins who run the truck are as jovial as they are efficient, as hospitable as they are talented. All that's missing is a place to sit while you eat (and Topo Chico to drink - but you can grab a bottle at Yummy.com while your food is being made) They are doing something special here, and if they launch a Brick & Mortar space within 50 miles, I'll make it a point to visit, so I can bring friends to sit and share this beautiful food with. Prices have increased since our last visit (not complaining - everything else has gone up too), but the $4 tacos we had in April are now $5.25 Still absolutely worth the price, especially considering you get access to their fantastic, ever-evolving shelf of refrigerated salsas with taco pairing suggestions written right on the jar if you need some guidance. TIP: on your first visit, make use of the 1oz containers and grab a bit of each salsa, so you can mix and match different bites, and pare down your list of favorite salsas for your next visit. The Carrot Habañero is still the winner for me - I'd put it on anything and everything. I'd clear out space in my fridge if they'd allow me to purchase some to take home. I'd swim in it. I'd add it to my nighttime skincare routine. I've added some photos below, but y'all already know the food is beautiful. Thankfully it's just as delicious as it looks. Bring your own pack of Water Wipes for your fingers, as this is a Grab & Go, or "Grab & Stand Next To a Planter To Use As A Table" situation (which is what we did.) The Quesadilla is decadent and greasy in the best way, with a layer of cheese coating the outside, as well as the inside. Unless you're careful, *your* outside layer will be also covered in cheese by the time you're finished. But that's ok, because you have the Carrot Habañero Salsa to wash your face with.

    Leo's Taco Truck absolutely lives up to the hype. Their sign says they have the best al pastor and…read morehonestly, they weren't lying. The al pastor tacos were incredibly flavorful. The meat was juicy, perfectly seasoned, and carved fresh. What really surprised me was that we completely forgot to add lime at first, and they were still amazing on their own. That's how you know the flavor is solid and doesn't rely on extras to carry it. My partner ordered the buche tacos, and they were done right perfectly crisp without being dry. Great texture and well-balanced flavor. Simple, authentic, and consistent exactly what you want from a taco truck. The quality speaks for itself, and now we can confidently say we've found our taco spot in Glendale. We'll definitely be back.

    Been to a lot of taco trucks and Leo's is one of my regular spots when I want something quick and…read moresolid. Nothing fancy here, just straight street tacos the way it should be. My go-to is the carne asada burrito, good size, good flavor, and always comes out hot. Sometimes I'll add a couple al pastor tacos, hard to pass up when they're slicing it fresh. Line can get long but it moves fast. Prices are fair for LA and portions are good. You're basically standing and eating on the curb, but that's part of the taco truck experience. Giving 4 out of 5 because it's still a taco truck, not the cleanest setup and no real seating, but the food is consistent and always hits the spot. I keep coming back.
