Finally came here and it did not disappoint. Their carne asada is one of the best I've had at any place around the surrounding Mexican spots. I'll definitely be a repeat customer. Definitely recommend the tacos! So good! On fridays and saturdays they make fresh hand pressed tortillas on the flat top in front of their truck. Service is top notch and so SO SO SO friendly. We're so lucky to have a spot like this here! read more

This is for the Discovery Bay location. (In the parking lot of Dash/Michael's Market/whatever it's called now) It was our first time after hearing good things about the truck near Lowe's. Service was fast and friendly. They have lots of cool menu items. I went with the Pastor Bowl and it was great. I got one piece of meat that was overly fatty and chewy, but the rest was awesome. The ratio of meat, beans, rice and toppings was great. My daughter liked her quesadilla, and I liked that they gave her cucumber on the side. We will be back to try the carne asada burrito and quesabirria tacos as we've heard those are good. Nice to have a new option in Discovery Bay that is good. read more

Tacos El Asador is an amazing restaurant. The tortilla made me feel like I was back in my home country again. The service was absolutely perfect. I think the girl who helped me was named Katia, and she gave me the best service I have ever received in my life. The tacos were incredible. I genuinely felt like I was back home again. I was so happy that I even cried when I got home. Thank you for making the best tacos in the entire United States of America! read more

Food: one of the best I've ever tasted. We ordered Tacos de Barbados, Pollo Torta, and Ramen Birria Bowl ( came with two beef tacos). The food was exceptionally good. I would say it's one of the best Ramen Birria's I love ever tasted. The items we ordered had a good amount of protein and so so good! Service: was ok, can be better. It's hard to hear because they are a "food truck" if you know what I mean. The food is kinda pricey $4 a piece tacos and $5 Horchata. But to me it's ok for the quality of food you are getting. Ambiance: not much of one. Since they are situated in a parking lot. However the metal roofing and tables make up for it. It helps for when it's hot outside and for when it rains. read more

After some grocery shopping at Costco, me and my wife finally tried Tacos El Asador. It been too long not to try out this taco truck that over the years, have grown well right by Lowe's parking lot. The permanent roofing with light really makes a nice spot to have a quick bite here at Tacos El Asador. A big plus is that they have a lot of different meat options: (my fave) tripas, lengua, barbacoa, and many more. We ordered tripas extra crispy, birria, and my favorite al pastor. Our food came in short order. The tripas were very good. It was indeed crispy and has good flavor. The birria was good as well, not among the best I had but pretty solid. The pastor though was quite interesting. The marinate I felt had too much pineapple that takes away from the pork. So much so that I felt that their al pastor was meh. Another thing was their tacos (May '25) were 4 dollars. Are we already in a place were tacos are now four bucks? I've seen other hovering around 3 dollars and change but not $4. Overall, tripas wag great, al pastor was mid and the price is on the high side. read more

Its absolutely terrible! Im on a diet and they served it so quickly. I finished their Asada Fries in one sitting. I shouldve ordered a horchata to pair it with, smh. There's a shaded, open, picnic area in front of the truck which made the calorie intake enjoyable. Will come back again since theyre very conveniently located near Lowes. read more

I didn't realize they had another truck or location, so this review is specifically for the Antioch location in the Lowe's parking lot. I've driven by this truck countless times and always wanted to try it since they're there every day. I love supporting small businesses and food trucks, and I was specifically recommended to come here for the asada fries since there aren't many places nearby that offer them besides California Burrito down the street. When I arrived, they weren't busy. I was the only person in line, although someone else was waiting in their car for their order. It took a while for the employee to come to the window and take my order, and by then there were already people lined up behind me. It looked like either one line cook and two women but I just saw one woman and the gentleman who cooked. It looks like they accept phone orders since customers pulled up for pickups, which is convenient, although I wasn't sure which number to call since they appear to have multiple locations. The food came out fairly quickly, but the pickup process was frustrating. The same employee who took my order kept loudly calling out my order instead of the order number she had given me. I repeatedly told her it was my order, but she ignored me and continued calling it out. Since I was the only person standing at the pickup window and no one else claimed it. I asked the people around and they said it wasn't theirs. I kept confirming that it was mine. After several attempts and even telling her my order number that she never used but gave me when she checked me out, she finally handed it over. It was frustrating because there were only a handful of customers, and she had taken my order just a short time before. As for the food, the burrito was okay and the asada fries were okay as well. The portions didn't feel worth the price, and the sauce portions could definitely be larger and more flavorful. I spent almost $40 for two items, which isn't unusual these days, so the price itself wasn't my issue. The bigger disappointment was the service and the portion sizes. Overall, the food was decent, but the customer service experience and value for the money would make me think twice before returning. read more

Wish I could leave zero I bought a shrimp and Asada burrito, Birria and sopas. Everything tasted exactly the same. Like water. My husband laughed because I started taking shots of their "salsa" which even the hottest unfortunately had zero flavor. Worst $60 dollars I've ever spent. I wanted to immediately walk back up and ask for a refund but my husband wouldn't let me so we tossed it and left. Don't even try it honestly read more

Where did you guys go? I stop by and the truck was not there. One of the best asada fries I had.

These tacos are delicious! The aguas frescas didn't taste like the real deal. I think they Klass powder mix to make their aguas frescas. But the tacos and their salsa were on point. 8.75/10 read more

Only reason why we came here is because we had to go to Lowe's and I just had a sudden urge to want a taco. Not knowing what to expect, we were hooked right away. Tacos here are BOMB. I've tried the carne asada, pastor, and shrimp and I'll say I'm a big fan of the carne asada. Pastor is a little on the sweeter side, but i appreciate that it's literally the legit kind of meat that you carve and served with pineapple. Shrimp was ok, i don't think I'd care to get that again. What we do like is that the tortillas are served grilled and not so soggy wet tortillas that most places serve. We also love that they automatically load up your plate with peppers, cucumbers, onions, and carrots. Flavor is amazing! I'd also say their prices seem fair. The fact that my fiance and i can get a whole meal for under $30 and feel fed after is great. We went twice in one week. read more

If I could give this taco truck negative all the zero stars I would. What in the hell!!!! Do they do with this food? Do they not wash their hands after using the restroom? We were at an event yesterday in Antioch they were there. My husband after drinking and having a good time went and got tacos for us. I had the chicken tacos (2) we had to leave early due to our stomachs feeling very upset. Got home a fever kicked in and the chills. I had never experienced this kind of sickness in the states. Awful just awful! Please stay away from this taco truck!!! I cannot stress this enough. Luckily I didn't take pics of our food. I don't ever want to remember what I ate from that place let alone see it in a picture. read more

Man o man, the asada fries were some of the best. Especially moving from Texas it's all new here but it's amazing both times I've come. We tried the fries with extra chipotle sauce and the asada burrito no rice. Service was great we asked for extra lime and onion. It was no extra charge and they were super nice about everything. Vibe was great. Music was playing in the back. It was just overall a good little get away with great food. read more

Definitely recommend and they do have specials three tacos for $10. Not a bad deal. And again the tacos were big. read more

Passed by today, Saturday, May 9, 2026 and the tables, benches, and canopy are all gone. Hope they come back. They had pretty decent tacos and burritos. read more

Their food is pretty good but not the best. Portions are good but prices are high. I'm changing it to a 1 star though because they've gotten my order wrong literally 6 times in a row, no matter how clear I make it or how many times I repeat it and even after tipping generously they get it wrong every single time read more

Amazing food! My kids and I have had their carne asada and shrimp tacos always amazing. My daughter used to get their Birria tacos but is now ordering more of the carne asada tacos.

Best Street Tacos. Highly recommend the crispy carne asada tacos and horchata! Call order in to save time.

Horrible customer service and the food is trash... The ladies that take the orders, hate their job and the cooks don't pay attention to the order and add whatever they want. Today me and 3 othe customer waiting in line fot 10 mins to find out they were close mind you it's a big glass window you can see for inside out and not 1 worker informed us. I want be back. read more

The tacos were just okay. I ordered the carne asada, and pastor and while it wasn't bad, it wasn't anything special. I also got an agua fresca, but it tasted super watery and lacked flavor. I had high expectations since the place is always packed, but overall, it didn't live up to the hype. read more

We decided to try this spot after relatives suggested it while we were in town. Huge truck with picnic tables and a long line. Always a good sign! I had the chicken torta and it was delicious. Huge, well-priced, and full of flavor. My SIL was missing an item from her order and didn't notice until we returned home. That's my only reason for knocking off a star. read more

Fresh, tasty, very inviting staff. The outside dining setup is vibes. I love the pineapple Agua Fresca and asada burrito!

We visit El Asador at least once a week. The food is always delicious, and the whole crew is very nice. Especially Fernanda, who provides us with 5-star customer service, and knows our order by heart. read more

Food is consistently delicious. Seating area with the shade is super clutch. Great service all around.

Wow! Lol I don't know what the hype is?? Everyone needs to just calm down. My wife and I really wanted to try their tacos here so we came a few hrs ago. The line here is always long and there's always groups of families and young adults eating here so it looks great and appealing. First off, their service seems unorganized; drinks are given late, orders are out of order, they barely yell out your number, etc. I ordered 2 carne asada tacos and a carne asada burrito. We waited over 15 mins when the cashier lady finally realized she forgot to print out my receipt it and hang it for the cooks to see. I can see it in her face that she was embarrassed. We waited an extra 15 mins!! Wow that is already a slip up and not cool at all especially since we're first timers. As we waited I noticed that the truck doesn't have a salsa bar at the bar, no napkins or utensils, nada. During our wait, the truck ran out of power so there were no lights (no electricity I'm assuming?) it went on for about 5 mins until the lights came back on. Lol really? Once we finally got our orders we tried their tacos and it was bad. The tortilla is mushy, meat is super bland, no flavors of any onions or cilantro on top, no toppings, lime is small and dried up, and a few drenched pickled jalapeños. This was bad, really bad. I can't believe people love this or even rave about it lol. I'm from the San Jose region where we have lots of tacos trucks and taquerias that just do it much better. Also, $4 for a taco?? Bruh!! Inflation for sure but also NOT worth it. Their burrito is super dry and chalky. Rice is bland and dried up, No sour cream or avocado, just tiny bits of pico de gallo, and just bad all around. I'd rather go to Chipotle or Taqueria Limon for some tacos or a burrito. We didn't have a pleasant experience and will not be coming back. Don't believe the hype, please! read more

The first time I ordered the Carne Asada Burrito with the works, I was pleased. So I returned and I ordered the same thing. The difference is, this time, I ordered the item to go. Perhaps I should have said, I will eat it here. The meat was overcooked grizzly, with no flavor and the tortilla was greasy. Food 3/5 Ambience 5/5 (because the customers were pleasant.) Price 3/5 read more
