    Beef burrito,  not very big long or thick compared to chipotle. It came with lime yet the limes were dried up.

    I don't do food truck meals, too often, I went off reviews from other websites for the top burritos in my area, and this place popped up. One of my main base lines for Mexican food is a good burrito. Lots of variables what's considered a good burrito This is definitely food truck, connected to another food truck(look at picture). Told him my order over the phone. He took the order in very detailed manner and things they could come with it. My opinion, there weren't many/any beans, very little tomato and small round chunks of meat/chicken(not shredded which I typically get in restaurants). Sadly, the size and quality is definitely less than say a chipotle store. Exterior the truck could certainly use a good cleaning. But it does sit in a parking lot for a tire change place. The staff seemed incredibly nice and even with a cold snowy environment, there's still people there ordering. I'm going to enclose pictures of a chicken burrito without guac and a beef burrito without guac and let you decide.

    As always the best Mexican food truck in town. I've been here about 30+ times in the last few years. This business maintains excellent quality in both food and service.

    Solid, fast chicken burrito with excellent hot sauce. A bit of char on the tortilla. My go-to.

    A friend sent me this pic, sent me rushing over.

    We tried every taco and loved every bite. Their sauces and prices are amazing, too! Unfortunately, we're not locals here. If we were, we'd come here quite often.

    My order: Spicy Pork Burrito x2 Quesadilla (chicken x3; cheese x1) Shrimp Tacos x3 Chicken Tacos x5 Total bill: less than $60 (damn!) My experience: I loved the pork burrito. It was so goddamn amazing. The chicken quesadilla was also good. My friends had the shrimp tacos and they only had good things to say about it. I didn't enjoy the chicken tacos much so I'm taking a star for it. Overall, the value for the money was 6/5. This is my first time here and I was told this is the highest rated food truck in CT. The person who took our order was kind and patient given the length of the order. Since it was a pick and go only setup, there's not much to say about ambience.

    Best tacos in Norwalk and you can't beat the cheap prices. Who can beat $2.50 tacos and $7 burritos? I've been coming here for the past three years, and I've never had a bad meal. It's amazing authentic Mexican food that's full of flavor. They have a lot of options. Their tacos and burritos are my favorites. I suggest calling ahead, as they tend to get very busy.

    Authentic fresh tacos. Highly recommended! Not a great setup to actually eat there, especially in winter, but the spices and preparation are top notch. Whenever I go back to Connecticut I stop at El Azteca!

    Chicken quesadillas are awesome. Very close to real mexican food, unlike the Americanized fast food version.

We put their name in all of the promotional postings and had a couple hundred people to feed that afternoon. Our first session began at noon - NO TRUCK, not answering calls. We had to ORDER PIZZA DELIVERY for all of the people who were expecting to enjoy lunch. We finally reached them and were told that they'd come around 3pm - when our second session began. Truck gets there around 3 and we explain to them that all attendees are out on the trails (it's an annual hiking/beer tasting event) but would start coming back to the main area in 30-40 minutes. Around 3:30, they start packing up and complaining that no one is there - even though tons of cars were lining our long driveway. THEN THEY LEAVE. Our executive director literally stood in front of their truck begging them to stay but they were out of there. People start coming off of the trails minutes later (a little buzzed and super hungry) wondering where the food was. And we have to ORDER PIZZA DELIVERY AGAIN. It was such an amazing day at Woodcock Nature Center - rain held off, awesome live music down by the pond, kids playing games and enjoying the playground and animals, adults knocking back some local craft brews..... but Cowabunga left the organizers feeling super stressed and incredibly pissed. Thanks for nothing. Food truck fail.
