Highly recommended this taco truck!

I had high hopes after seeing the great reviews, but unfortunately the burrito was a big letdown…read more The positives first: the customer service was friendly, my order came out incredibly fast, and all of the ingredients tasted fresh and were served nice and hot. The salsas also tasted fresh, but they were pretty bland and had almost no spice or kick to them. The biggest disappointment was the premium arrachera burrito. For $17.50, I expected the meat to be the highlight, but instead the burrito was mostly rice and beans. The filling was also very soft and mushy overall. The arrachera itself was chopped into tiny, fatty pieces with very little flavor, and it got completely lost among the rice and beans. It didn't have the grilled, seasoned beef flavor I was expecting from a premium burrito. Maybe this is the new standard, or maybe California food costs are forcing restaurants to cut corners to keep prices where they are--I honestly don't know. But at $17.50, I expected a lot more meat and a lot more flavor. I don't mind paying premium prices for premium food, but this just didn't feel like a premium burrito. The fresh ingredients, fast service, and friendly staff were all appreciated, but the burrito itself didn't live up to the price or the reputation.

We decided to go to the Whittier night market off of Whittier Boulevard. Not really a night…read moremarket, but pretty close. Located off of the frontage street, by a grassy street divider, this is a spot to enjoy the eats on the grass like a picnic. I opted this spot, which has a IG of cali tacos please, but no longer exists. This spot on yelp was referred to as sumo tacos. The workers were friendly and very helpful. The sumo fries was delicious. The asada itself was unique. It had a smokey flavor which separates itself from other spots. It appeared to be cooked on charcoal, but given it is a food truck, that would be hard to pull off. The sumo taco was something different. It's cheese melted like a tortilla which holds the asada. It was very heavy, greasy and difficult to enjoy. The chips was a plus where you can rip the taco and place it on the chip. If you want something heavy, this sumo is for you. A bit heavy to my liking, so you might want to try a regular taco or burrito. But then again, it's called sumo for a reason. Curious if this spot would experiment with gorditas, a crisp tortilla. I think their filing would knock this out of the park. I also wish they would advertise what drinks they have. Nonetheless, worth a try.

This is definitely not your typical street taco place. The asada tacos were amazing -- the meat was…read moretender, flavorful, and had a great aroma. The pork tacos were even better, with rich flavor and perfectly cooked meat. I found this place late in the evening when I was hungry and searching nearby, and the good reviews convinced me to try it. It was my first visit, and honestly, it exceeded my expectations. One of the best taco spots I've tried so far. I'll definitely be coming back

We been here twice, and both times were really good times…read more The wife and I stopped by and wanted some birria tacos and a burrito, usually what we get when we get street food. The people were nice and had a lot of options for salsas, unlimited guacamole, beans, grilled onions and more. The price was a bit in the higher end, we got a a burrito Al pastor, 4 birria tacos and two drinks and it was $40. But it's worth it to us cause all the sides they offered. The quality of the food was great solid 7/10, good flavor and the burrito was huge! The staff as friendly and answered all my questions. It's located on a busy street and small parking area. Overall a good experience.

Food is DELICIOUS, will definitely give them credit there. Our food is always good, but our service…read morethe last two times has not been great. Why have a number to call to place phone orders but they never answer. Two separate occasions I've called to try and order ahead so my daughter and I aren't waiting long in the car or outside but they never answer. Called multiples times and no answer, but again the food is great so we still come. Then we came to the truck and they had one window closed, and then the lady said they were closed but the instagram said open. Hopefully this doesn't happen often, because again great food, just needs better service. Don't order the noodles, they are overpriced and not very appetizing

My wife was craving a hot dog and this place popped up I wanted to give it a try. I got two hot…read moredogs the steak one and the original. Both were good but dry. Didn't have much to go crazy about. My wife added mustard to hers and I added some ketchup to try to liven it up. Bread is very thick and makes the dog feel even dryer. Service was not great there was several employees but order took longer than I was expecting. The vibe in there is ok music was too loud seemed like a speaker was blown so wasn't too pleasant. If you are looking for a quick hot dog it's a good spot but was not very impressed. Sorry I thought I had pictures not able to find.

Nice truck but ill prepared Heritage park Santa fe springs…read more Celebration dia de los Muertos I waited in line and over heard that he had 7 orders and was running out of French fries with are required for their orders pastrami fries carne asada fries Well right when I was going to order he only has the square that takes chip only.

*** Cash only & raising taco price to $2.50 starting in mid August ***…read more Chema's Tacos is a mom-and-pop + brick-and-mortar taco shop in Whittier and was established in 1986. They only sell taco - no burrito, no beans & rice, and no chips. [Parking]: Limited and few spots available right in front of the taco shop. However I had no issue finding a spot on Saturday night. [Ambiance & Amenities]: This taco shop doesn't have the sexiest decor. There are 7 indoor tables, one ATM, and old-school toy vending machines. One unisex restroom available. [Menu]: 7 meat options for taco - carne asada, al pastor, tripas, pollo (chicken), sesos (brain), buche (stomach), cabeza (head), and chorizo (sausage). *** Carne asada taco + Al pastor taco (with everything, dine-in - $2.25): One of employees brought a plate of tacos to my table. Unfortunately I thought both tacos with double-layer tortilla tasted just alright - salsa had a hint of spicy kick, but flavor profile was bland. *** Feels like this is one of those nostalgia spots for locals who live in Whittier for decades, but there are just too many good $2+ street tacos in LA in 2025.

The tacos are so good! Service is fast as well. Definitely recommend the Al pastor tacos.read more
