    As Bob Ross would say, this was a "happy accident". A friend of mine and I were taking our girls to the trampoline park, which opened up 30 minutes later than the website stated, so I looked up taco truck in the area and this one had the best reviews, and was the closest. The girls split a delicious order of rice and my friend and I split a steak quesadilla. Both were scrumptious! We'll be back if and when we're in the area again. The salsa that came with the quesadilla was fire!

    Absolutely amazing. We ordered the carne asada fries, Birria Quesadilla, and Birria Ramen. It had a nice kick to it and all the seasonings were perfection. They make it when you order it so don't go if you're in a rush, we will definitely be returning very soon!

    We ordered 3 carne asada tacos and a pastor burrito at 11pm on a Sunday night, there were about 3 people who had ordered in front of us. After ordering they told us it would be a 30 minute wait (maybe they could have warned us before we ordered). Turns out our food took an hour. If you are wondering why, after sitting there a while I realized that they were taking door dash orders, and not only were they overwhelmed, those were clearly the priority. I don't think it's smart for any place to have so many orders and 1 guy making the food, so thats the first problem. When we got our food it was easy to notice they gave us a pastor taco instead of the pastor burrito we were charged for. So that's $22 for 4 tacos and 2 cans of soda. The lady then argued and said "No, you ordered a taco". Clearly I didn't, and the price would reflect that! Ok, onto the food, some of the worst tacos in the area, meat burnt on 1 side to the point it hurt my teeth. The pastor taco was the better one as it was average. All in all I would never go here again.

    Authentic, good tasting Mexican food. It's great that there open 24/7 & the tacos do not disappoint, service is mostly English/Spanish & nice seating outside(FOODTRUCK)

    I pass by this food truck every single day on my way home from work, so finally I decided to give it a go. It is set up in the parking lot of a few stores, so there is plenty of parking. It seemed to be a one-man show, but the guy was efficient. The menu was posted on the side of the truck, and I thought it was odd that it seemed to be mainly a breakfast joint; there was a variety of breakfast platters, pancakes, french toast, and omelet offerings. I was disappointed they didn't have any side options to purchase like chips/salsa or rice/beans. But I was in the mood for tacos and not to be dissuaded. I ordered a variety: chicken, pork, steak, and chorizo. They were ready in about 10 minutes, and I was on my way. The tacos were okay, and maybe if I hadn't been having awesome tacos in Seminole Heights I would have enjoyed them more, but they all seemed very bland except for the chorizo one, even with the sprinkle of cilantro and onion on top. The green sauce provided with the tacos helped, but they still tasted very boring. All in all the tacos were fine but I would only return to try the breakfast options.

    Pros: Good location Cons: Bland. Rubbery shrimp. Severely OVERPRICED. I paid $14 for 4 subpar tacos. I won't be back.

    They had real authentic food like from California. Really enjoyed the tostadas and the chicken taco.

    Was having trouble finding somewhere to grab dinner...nothing sounded too appealing, so I jumped on…read moreYelp and found the Loli's Tacos was highly recommended and had a lot of reviews. Ok, this is where I'll grab some food. Popped in and was quickly greeted, as I looked over the menu at the counter the girl stepped up and asked if she could help me, she gave me a few recommendations. I went with a couple different tacos, a pork tamale and a bag of chips. I have to apologize, I almost always take pictures of the food before shoveling it into my mouth, but I was hungry and this looked delicious. I pictures. The reviews weee unquestionably correct and this place is incredible. My favorite (which was difficult to pick just one) was the Campechano taco...the flavor was out of this world. I had a steak taco and the pork tamale...absolutely incredible. I hate to rave about something without some sort of criticism...nothing can be perfect right? Well, the food was spot on, don't change a thing. My only small poke would have been that the bottled Coke was cold, but not ice cold...and if that's the most negative thing you can say, well then...this place is a 10 out of 10. I highly recommend...I just wish I lived in the area to enjoy it more often! Tampa, you're lucky to have a place this great!

    Go to Taco Tuesday spot. They have my favorite Al Pastor tacos !! Close to work and very…read moreconvenient. They have a plenty of protein options as well.
