. Tacos very salty and my husband was chewing on this plastic .

Tacos very salty and my husband was chewing on this piece of plastic . Been a long time customer but need to find better quality taco truck

Honestly some of the best authentic food I've tried so far hands down! Not only was it ready in less then 7 mins but the flavor was 10/10. My food vs my husbands this was a cash preferred establishment. my order (pastor quesadilla add beans w. a side of grilled onions) id add the green salsa for that extra kick onions & cilantro is optional.

Came for the great reviews. It was a nice looking food truck with good lighting since I got there late. The staff was nice. Would've been 1 star if it wasn't for that. 1. The taco was dry and bland. 2. There was a bug in the food. Look at the picture of the plate. The little dude was chilling on a piece of onion next to a piece of cilantro. It doesn't look like a roach, but still nasty.

I love this taco truck! I've only tried their tacos with pastor & asada but I love them both! Service is quick and friendly and the tacos never disappoint. They're super generous with the meat too! $1.25 for happiness? Yes please! They moved across the street to Paramount Blvd due to the construction at the old car wash at their original location. It's not hard to find!

Worst tacos truck ever! We usually get our tacos at Arandinos Tacos Truck but today we decided to try here since it's closer to our place. We ordered 16 tacos and specifically told them to have cilantro and onion on the side, repeatedly. And what do you know, they said it's already inside. The cook looked at the cashier girl and they just literally stared at each other. No apology to us. Nothing. Just a freaking staring contest between them and us. I'm not the type that would ask for a whole new order if it's messed up. But at least some decency would be nice. And their food is just not good. Tacos were super soggy. They drowned the poor tacos in salsa. The tacos fell apart we couldn't even pick it up. And mind you our drive was only 3 mins. It's so soggy the tortilla peeled like an onion, which was everywhere in the tacos. A big no! Should've just went to Arandinos.

The tacos are good, especially the carne asada tacos. The service is also very quick. FYI they don't take tap.

This was my first time trying Taiwanese street food. So let's see if they're pretty good eh or ew…read more I got their grape yogurt drink, sausage hug sausage, and scallion pancake chicken cutlet to try. The grape yogurt drink was creamy, yogurty, and tart with real, refreshing, fruity grape flaves and seeds. The sausage hug sausage had a firm, bouncy, sweet, fatty, thick sausage, pungent raw garlic, and crunchy sweet pickled cucumbers all on a chewy sticky rice bed. The scallion pancake chicken cutlet had a super flakey crispity crunchity chewy wrap, a brushing of sweet sticky hoisin sauce, some shredded cabbage, and a thin crispity crunchy bubbly lightly savory chicken cutlet. Overall this place is pretty good. Yogurt drink $6.75 Sausage hug sausgae $12 Scallion pancake chicken cutlet $11

I like…read morethe feel of Food truck grab and go and they were nice and attentive ... as far as the price it was reasonable, but for the amount of popcorn chicken (it was like almost $10) I was expecting a bit more for the bunk especially when I just tried Lollicup's in Alhambra and it felt like it was a nerverending cup lol. Also, chicken could have been crispier outside but that's just me I prefer crispier popcorn chicken. Otherwise it was solid and right amount of seasoning and honey milk tea was yum. Didn't taste powdered down or anything. I ordered 50% and the honey taste is memorable . There's other food trucks available so as far as vibes... busy all around! I usually just try to blend in with the crowd and point to what looks the yummiest to me hoping they have popcorn chicken lol So I will definitely come back again for some yummy treats when I'm leaving work hehe

Great tacos! Got their chicken and carnitas tacos. Very flavorful and they don't skimp on the meat…read more Very friendly people. Highly recommended if you're in the area and want some late night tacos

My wife and I fell in love with the food at Tacos Don Mario the first time we tasted it. We finally…read moregot the chance to return today. However, they short changed us and served us inedible food. We ordered two tortas de asada, three tacos de asada, and three tacos de lingua. The boy taking our order said the bill came to "triente y una" ($31). I gave him $50, and he gave me $8 in change, rather than $19. I was prepared to give them a tip, as times are hard. I asked for six salsa verdes, and the boy said I had to pay an additional $2 dollars for them, even though the last time we went another customer had asked for that many and not been charged extra. When we got our tortas, the bread was burned and the "carne asada" was chopped up hamburger. Moreover, the "beef" did not taste like meat. It tasted like verge burger. I tried both the tacos de lingua and tacos de asada, and both tasted the same, like crispy, unseasoned beef. We will never return here. We don't trust them to do honest business or make a consistently high quality product. The first time we tasted the meat, it was well cooked, seasoned perfectly, and tasted like real beef. Avoid if you value your money or tastebuds. Mi esposa y yo nos enamoramos de la comida de Tacos Don Mario la primera vez que la probamos. Hoy, por fin tuvimos la oportunidad de regresar. Sin embargo, no nos dieron el cambio correcto y la calidad de la comida fue inferior. Pedimos dos tortas de asada, tres tacos de asada y tres tacos de lengua. El joven que tomó nuestra orden dijo que el total era "triente y una" ($31). Le di $50 y me devolvió solo $8 de cambio, en lugar de $19. Yo estaba preparado para dejar una propina generosa, ya que los tiempos están difíciles. Pedí seis salsas verdes, y el joven dijo que tenía que pagar $2 adicionales por ellas, a pesar de que la última vez que fuimos otro cliente pidió esa misma cantidad y no le cobraron extra. Cuando recibimos nuestras tortas, el pan estaba quemado y la "carne asada" eran pedazos de hamburguesa picada, no la carne asada sazonada que otros camiones ponen en sus tortas. Además, la "carne" en las tortas no sabía a carne; sabía a hamburguesa vegetariana. Probé tanto la lengua como la asada, y ambas sabían igual: como carne crujiente y sin sazonar. Nunca volveremos a este lugar. No confiamos en que hagan negocios honestos ni en que ofrezcan un producto de calidad constante. La primera vez que probamos la carne, estaba bien cocida, perfectamente sazonada y sabía a carne de verdad. Eviten este lugar si valoran su dinero o su paladar.

In love with this hidden gem of a restaurant. The service is top notch and the food is impressive…read more The food is largely focused on the region of Oaxaca, so think lots of mole based dishes. What's great is that they also offer vegetarian and pescatarian options. Additionally they have a bar section, tables to accommodate large parties, and booths for a more private feel. Above all, if you are curious to open your palate from main stream Mexican food, definitely try this restaurant.

This was my first time trying mole (they gave us complimentary basket of chips with four different…read moremole flavors) and to be honest, it wasn't my cup of tea. However, I can still tell that the quality of the mole was high as they were extremely flavorful and had a nice consistency. Especially loved the pumpkin seed one! 1. Cazuela Oaxaqueña (5/5): Very nice, love the assortment of meats and the melted cheese at the bottom tied everything together. 2. Mole Pistache & Menta (3.5/5) The sample pumpkin seed mole tasted exactly like crushed pumpkin seeds so I thought the pistachio mole would have the same strong pistachio nut flavor. Unfortunately, I could barely taste the pistachio as it was overpowered by the spice of the jalapeño. Ordered medium rib eye but it was more like well done, a little tough to chew. 3. Quesabirrias (4/5) You could never go wrong with quesabirrias. I did wish there was more birria sauce though so it would be more juicy Service (3/5): We ordered two agua fresca refills but the waiter never came back with our drinks! We had to kindly remind them. Also, when we asked for a to-go box, they simply gave us the box and then proceeded to take away our utensils. How are we supposed to put the leftover food in the box?? All in all, I thought this restaurant put a lot of love for only a few select dishes and for the slightly expensive price and mediocre service, I'm not sure if I would come again.
