    Suadero, Tripa & cabeza
    Gus C.

    Amazing, clean, friendly. All the taqueros are friendly and efficient. The meats are great, and they carry a good variety that other vendors don't, which justifies their prices in my opinion. Don't sleep on the cabeza, tripa, buche, and suadero! Best of all, everything is kept clean and you can pay once you're done eating to keep your hands relatively nice and clean to enjoy your food. Don't miss their specials during the week!

    Food

    Street stand. Good food. Good prices. Really fresh. Here's the address this week, 7/2024 1485 E Third St Pomona Ca 91766 If not there, call the number. They texted me their address. Worth driving around a little to find them.

    It's pretty hard for me to find a go to taco spot because most trucks or restaurants I've been to are inconsistent. I remember going here with my friends when it was at another location but I never remembered the name of it. Recently stumbled upon it once again. I guess they were closed for a period of time but are now open? It sucks that they keep moving but I'll try to follow as they go because the food is pretty good. First of all, I was disappointed that during the COVID-19 pandemic they did not wear masks. This is very irresponsible and dangerous to both the employees and customers. They have changed their operation and have signs up that states that it is takeout only, so they're not living under a rock. Out of all of them, I did not see one with a mask. The cashier wasn't wearing gloves either. Super dangerous and I debated leaving but I decided to stay anyway :// pleaseeeee take the right safety measures to make sure everyone is healthy and safe as possible. There's no point in customers wearing masks and standing a few feet away from each other in line when they people serving the food are not wearing masks. With an open grill top with all the meat cooking, there is a higher risk since the employees are talking over it to take the order as the line moves along. I'm not sure what their official opening hours are but Yelp says 5-midnight. They also aren't open every day of the week. You can tell when they're open if the gate is open I guess? For people driving by the neighborhood it is hard to tell so I assume most of the people that come here are loyal customers that follow them. The line starts towards the back so it may be confusing if it's your first time. Current address as of 5/30/2020 is 11086 Pipeline Ave Pomona, CA 91766 As I said before, the meats are all laid out and cooking on a flat grill top. This is definitely nice to see because you know the quality you're getting as they serve it. The al pastor is also set up on the spiral cooking machine. All of this is nice and I wouldn't mind too much if they were all just wearing masks. I know it's hard to wear a mask while cooking because of the heat but it would make us all feel a little safer. Nevertheless, the tacos are pretty good. At the time of this review the price was $1.50 per taco. There was a sign for Taco Thursday 2x1... so I'm not sure whether it meant 2 tacos for the price of one? Or the tacos are $1? I assume it's busier on Thursday's with this special. It was already pretty busy on a Friday night. I ordered the carne asada, al pastor, and suadero tacos. The carne asada was okay in my opinion. Some places overcook it and the meat is like biting into rubber balls. But here, the meat was still intact and not too dry. The only problem was that the meat didn't taste marinated or seasoned enough. After trying the meat itself I was disappointed but salsa can help it. The al pastor is definitely my favorite here and I would probably order all of just this meat. It was tender and was full of flavor in comparison to the asada. Highly recommend the al pastor. The suadero is a meat I don't usually order but I've had once before so I wanted to try their version. It wasn't bad. It's tender but didn't taste seasoned either. If they seasoned the meat more, this taco spot would be absolutely insane! After you order there is a table with all the taco toppings. Onions and cilantro, lime, cucumbers, salsas... but then again everything is all out in the open. SELF SERVE with everyone touching the handles, tongs, etc. it would be more of a hassle to prefill the salsa cups but things shouldn't be self serve yet while there is no vaccine. It sucks because I never would be complaining if the virus wasn't still going on and is as dangerous as it can potentially be. My overall opinion is a little above average but I did not appreciate the lack of safety measures put in place. I will definitely come back for the tacos but I pray they do something by at least wearing masks and gloves. And maybe prepackage the toppings or provide gloves so your hands aren't in direct contact with what everyone else touches.

    They came to our birthday party last night. I can't explain how good the tacos are. The variety of meats outside of the basic asada and chicken. We also had lengua and chorizo. They have more to offer. Next time we'll order the rest too! They are my go to for future parties.

    Cheeeaaaapppp tacos on Thursday. 2 for $1 The condiments are self serve and has a wide variety. Keep an eye out for the Instagram page. The location shanked constantly as well as the days they are opened. Low key spot that provides great deals. A must go to

    A place I can eat and feel like family. It was my first time visiting Tacos El Pecas and I left satisfied and one happy customer. When my wife and I arrived there was no line and we ordered our tacos with some horchata. I felt like I was at a families backyard gathering. The music, the dodger game, the people, It was an atmosphere that really made me feel at home. Hands down, the best place to get your taco fix in the Inland Empire. When we first pulled up, we passed it, but just asked a gentlemen where we assumed it was and we were right! He helped us park in the street too. There was no line when we got there, which was great because right after, there was a huge rush. The tacos were delicious and horchata was sweet! This place is clean and very organized. I would highly recommend Tacos El Pecas. Gracias!

    Al pastor Decepcionado, es la primera vez que los pruebo acostumbrado a los del plebe,y si mil veces mejor los del plebe,la carne fresca

    Is ok bout not ok,like if you to early they give you or feed you the leftover's from yesterday, Al pastor no longer ,the cabeza is dry, the steak is burned. Do your self a favor and go late like 11 pm

    Hole in the wall, best tacos in SoCal, found this place hanging out with some Pomona friends. Will be here every time I go out. Cabeza tacos are the bomb.

I was hoping they would have a Taco Tuesday special or something but they don't... I ordered 2 carne asada and 1 al pastor tacos to go. They were prettty solid and delicious! Carne asada was really nice, the al pastor was definitely more flavorful, but it had more of the burnt ends, so it was either even more flavorful from the charred parts, or it was a bit hard and too crispy to have. Overall, still pretty nice though. I liked how they had the side bar, which it doesn't look entirely the cleanest, but pretty decent. Total for 3 tacos came out to be $9, so it's about $3 each.

Indoor seating is also pretty limited, so my friend and I were glad to grab one of the small tables. I ordered the lengua and asada tacos and both were flavorful, tender, and loaded with meat. I was honestly too hungry and eager to take a picture beforehand, but I can assure you the portions are plentiful. The tacos were a little greasy, but still really satisfying.

And he just shrugged and said yes. Just found it interesting that a meat dish would be 8$ less than a purely cheese/veggie dish. Especially since done this in the past with no issue. I also asked for "hot sauce" for my dish. They brought out a spicier house salsa as the hot sauce...totally understandable and the salsa here is usually free. Apparently it's a 4$ "chipotle sauce" that the waiter did not inform me would be charged. I would've easily just said I want tapatio or no "hot sauce". I used maybe a teaspoon for 4$. I told the waiter this when we questioned the bill and he just shrugged. These may seem like small inconveniences but when they seem like they intentionally don't tell you the details and then when called out about it just kinda shrug it off, it was a disappointing end to an otherwise tasty dinner. We love it here and will certainly be back but it just sucks that I have to be extra cautious & skeptical when ordering from now on.
