Look for this truck
Babette C.

I moved up here from Pacoima in Los Angeles, a place where the sidewalk in front of Target is lined with taco trucks and the curb in front of the Rite Aid is where you go for the most legit Mexican hot dogs, so it's no insult if I say the flavors at this truck are okay. They really chop up the meat instead of there being fair sized chunks which is what I'm used to. Love that the burrito is a full sized burrito. Not the same fat burritos that you'd get in the Mission District in San Francisco, but you feel like you're getting your money's worth. The great thing about this place though is that there are a few stationary trucks around it and they share bench style picnic tables so there's a nice laid back vibe there if you just want to hang out. Plus if you want a little of this or that, you can grab an arepa, some dolmas, and wash it down with a boba or cider from the other businesses there.

Big ol' burrito

In the past this place was unmatched. I came back after a few years and it seems to have gone down hill.

Food is good but drinks are expired! I drank 7 month expired Coca Cola before checking expiration date since it tasted so flat! Ugh

Reminds me of the Southern California corner taco shops. Cheap, quick, authentic-style Mexi fast food. Highly recommended.

I usually get the chicken burrito cut in half to split with a friend and sometimes a marinated pork taco.

We ordered the indian burger - vada pav (highly recommend & delicious), chicken rice bowl (tasty), chicken bombay roll (indian burrito with chicken - nice flavors and huge) along with their gun powder fries (amazing). While I liked all their dishes their chicken bombay roll had way too much rice but had good flavors. It was tasty just a little too much of rice imo. I reduced a star for 2 reasons - 1. This place isnt cheap 2. They change their food truck location which is okay but their online order via Uber Eats does not work. Atleast when I was trying for 2 days it said the food truck is not available while they actually were in operation. They would not answer their phone call and we had to locate their food truck to place our bulk order for a large group. Hence reduced the star. All in all I would order back from here but hope they figure out why Uber Eats or Postmates or delivery.com were unable to process any online order even when they were around changing locations in Olympia. Dont have the bandwidth to chase them on the streets of Olympia tbh.

I can see what the hype is all about. Absolutely delicious burgers. The bun was fresh and soft…read moreand held the burger together perfectly . The burger meat was cooked and seasoned just right and the sauce on the burger....the chefs kiss! This burger is a standout in a land of mediocre small burgers. Fries were also very good and the fry sauce was delicious!! We are fans and will be back. Don't be discouraged by the lines- they are a well oiled machine and even though the food is cooked to order, they are pretty efficient and get the food out quick.

Perhaps I had unrealistic expectations after reading so much about how this is "the best" burgers…read morein Oly. After driving by dozens of times, we finally stopped. Food: The burger was good, but not great. The bun did its job well and didn't fall apart. The burger was thicker than a smash burger, but less than a quarter pounder. The beef was simply bland. It had either too little or no discernible seasoning to bring out the flavor of the meat. The cheese was nice and melty. The burger sauce was good. Honestly, we both decided we preferred a Sonic cheeseburger. (Sorry). The fries were simple, crinkle cut frozen potatoes. They also lacked flavor. We ate a few each and the rest went in the bin. Service: There was no line, so our order was promptly taken and the food came out quickly. Friendly service at the window. Ambience: it's a food truck. They have a pop-up canopy and a picnic table which we shared with other customers. Nice conversation, friendly people. Although I mentioned Sonic, it's clearly not the "best" burger in Olympia, but it is consistent. I like smash burgers and we have good options, but I'm still looking for a place that makes a thick, juicy, flavorful burger in Oly. So far, the best burger I've had is in Tacoma at Burger Seoul. The beef mixture includes brisket and is always full of flavor.

I wish I took pictures, I live in Vancouver and met my bestie that lives in Puyallup, to catch up…read moreso I wasn't thinking of food pictures. The restaurant is decorated like you're in someone's home in Mexico, it was so cute! It was very busy when we came in They don't have chips and salsa fyi - this joint is incredibly authentic Not a HUGE menu, but decent amount of choices which right away tells me they do what they do well if the menu isn't 8 pages haha We got quick service, there was one woman seating people, taking orders, and closing checks, and she did it well! My friend and I ordered soup (specifically carne en su jugo), which is my FAVORITE SOUP EVER, and I can't ever find it anywhere, and boy oh boy I will drive the 1.5 hours to get it again and again, it was perfect. They provide maximum of 2 ramekins of pickled carrots (cost if you want more, which were amazing) and 1 ramekin of green salsa (charge if you want more - and it's spicy but so good!) 3 crispy chicken tacos 1 mole with refried beans taquito (not rolled) 1 adobado pork sopa 1 adobado pork taco 2 chorizo tacos 1 hibiscus aqua fresca The restaurant doesn't have any music on, which I always appreciate background noise in general, but my friend and I were talking so much and the place was busy I didn't notice too much We planned on meeting monthly in Centralia and will continue to go here to eat, check it out!!!

Service if wonderful and the hosts are very accommodating and pay a lot of attention to make sure you're enjoying your meal. The tamales are great - they're heavier on the outer soft shell than the meat but very tasty - save some of the salsa you get when you are seated to go with this. But the standout for me are the ala carte tacos - the chorizo and the adovado meats are well portioned, superbly cooked, and seasoned to be juicy and flavorful. I'll be back to try a bunch of other menu items on my next road trip!
