There's this taco truck literally right on the corner by my apartment near the freeway--pretty sure it's off Culver--and it has officially become my taco spot. It used to be a small stand, but now it's a full taco truck that pulls up Monday-Thursday from 7 PM to 11 PM. The name is Tacos El Mr., and this was my fifth time coming back. That alone should tell you how much I love this place. I ordered four al pastor tacos, and they were perfect. Loaded with meat, cilantro, onions, and limes--simple but exactly how tacos should be. And honestly? These might be the best al pastor tacos I've ever had. I've tried a lot of taco spots, and nothing compares to the flavor and smokiness of their meat. It's tender, juicy, and so flavorful that I could eat it by itself. One thing that makes this truck even better: it's family-run. The daughter (super sweet!) takes the orders while her dad and another family member cook. They even remembered me and my friend from when we first came on Halloween, which I thought was the cutest thing. While we were ordering, her dad asked if we wanted to try their birria taco--and the wild part is my friend and I had literally just been talking about trying birria. So of course we said yes. Who turns down a free taco?! And WOW. That birria taco was insane. Tender, juicy, melts-in-your-mouth, full of flavor... easily a 10/10. Tacos El Mr. truly has some of the best meat out here. Their drinks are also fire--agua frescas, hibiscus, horchata... everything hits. I would 100% recommend this truck to anyone. The food, the vibe, the people--it's all perfect. Truly out of this world. Follow them to see where they're parked next: Instagram: @tacoselmr951 TikTok: TACOS_EL.MR951 Truck Location: 3520 Tyler St, Riverside, CA Phone: (951) 410-0573 read more

Taco pizza - say what?! Off the secret menu, this was pretty bomb. All the meat fixings with extra cheese and refried beans on top. Got their mulitas last time - think mini quesadilla - which were also great! Sauces are on point. Highly recommend the al pastor. Horchata to sweeten things up. read more

Tacos El Mr - Yummy food - Mexican Near Me

I thought I could never say I could eat a better taco living in SoCal most of my life but man this place was bomb! Tried their Asada, Chorizo, Carnitas, Al Pastor, and Mulitas special. Everything was flavorful, fresh and delicious. The crew were friendly, courteous and patient sharing their menu and finding what you're craving. Ambiance was vibrant, they had music playing, guest were enjoying a great meal and crew came around to check on those that ate on site. They have a few tables set up if you want to enjoy your food there, they are mobile so follow their IG for latest location. Priced very reasonably and their aqua fresca was on point. read more

Food was great! We had their tacos with birria, asada, and al pastor. Good helping of meat on each taco. Marinade on the Al pastor was solid. Asada was a tad bit salty for me. Most prefer it saltier I'd say so I can't dock a star. They had 4 different salsas available. A salsa verde, a creamy green, creamy red, and a salsa roja. All of em were solid but be warned, they're all spicy. These all have a good kick to em. I eat spicy food fairly often but I had to cut down on how much salsa I used on my tacos after my first bite. Their onions and cucumber along with the radishes were great palate cleansers. They also had the standard lemons/limes, onion, and cilantro available. Their jamaica and passion fruit aqua fresca really helped wash down the meal. They weren't overly sour or tart. Really refreshing. Overall I'd definitely come back. Priced very fair for the amount of food they give. Super cool team too. read more

Horrible! Save your money and go elsewhere! We got the asada fries, animal fries, tacos al pastor, and tacos de asada. The line was long but moved quickly so we figured the food must be good. We seen them on social media and thought we'd give it a go. Boy did we regret it. The food was way too greasy. The pineapple water was super watered down. We took it to go and live less than 5 minutes away from where they were located so in those 5 minutes the fries shouldn't have gotten that soggy. They tasted as if they weren't cooked all the way. The friends were super soggy/soft. The tacos were way too greasy. Honestly it was the biggest waste of $50. I don't see myself going back. Now I'm out $50 and still hungry since we didn't even bother eating all the food. read more
