UNDERRATED!!!!!!…read more I've passed this place a million times! I'm so sorry it took me so long! I was in the area dropping my dog off at his dog bath spot. I also wanted to give OC shoe cleaner a try to get some shoes cleaned(they're about to get a 1 star for being so delayed.) Anywho, after I dropped off my shoes I saw Sal's and said I need to give this place a try finally! Walked in and there was one other patron in there. This place needs to be steadily busy! The owner was really nice and accommodating. For a first visit, I kept it simple. I ordered a surf and turf mulita, lengua taco and a chorizo taco. Filled a few cups of fresh salsa and sat my fluffy azz down and awaited my lunch. Business started picking up so I was happy to see. Got my food and started chowing down. Took my first bite of the surf n turf milita OMG instant mouthgasm! Mulitas are quit rich so you have to add salsa and I added my green El yucateca, made perfect bites. Loaded with protein! Something I'll be getting EVERYTIME! Took a bite of the chorizo taco, these aren't the super greasy type of chorizo tacos. I kinda like the fatty mouth feel, just a personal preference. The language taco was so soft. Fantastic texture. Honestly what a great first impression and knew I wanted to be back sooner than later. Following week I came back and this time had a meal with my sister and one of my men's. We went bonkers with the ordering. This time I ordered a bean and cheese mulita and I noticed they had crunchy tacos which I didn't see the first visit! I immediately ordered a carne asada crunchy taco with onions. My man's ordered a taco and a burrito, my sister ordered a bean and cheese burrito and a quesadillla combo. My sister doesn't do salsa like that so we had to get her salsa from Stater brothers gringo salsa. Food was ready and we had some hefty bags. Got home with the food stash and with all that, they forgot our tortilla chips!?!?!? Luckily my dude went back out and went to the store and got some chips. Like had we known that we would've gotten a bag while we got my sisters gringo salsa :( Anywho, got into the food and that crunchy taco was damn good and it didn't get soggy on the way home! Definitely a repeat. The star of the show was the bean and cheese mulita !!!! It was ooey gooey goodness! Honestly better than a bean and cheese burrito! I'm salivating just writing about it! No joke I think about that dish every other day. My sister loved her meal. My friend said his burrito had pinto beans instead of silky refried beans, next time specify Mister. My sister is a believer and she can't wait to have her own bean and cheese mulita because the other half I gave her, she loved! This place deserves to be booked and busy! Please support your small mom and pop local businesses!

First time here. The location of this truck is in a sketchy and a bit dangerous area. When I…read morevisited, there were people who appear to abusing substances standing next to the truck. The food was pretty good as far as flavor and quality of meat goes. You could taste the bbq flavor on the meat which really added to each bite. The price was a bit on the higher end for the portion sizes you get. I would love to return, given that the area is safe because it's hard to find a decent taco truck.

I stopped by this taco truck this past weekend, and after trying quite a few taco spots, here are…read moremy thoughts on this one. First off, I really love that they use charcoal to cook their meat. That smoky flavor is something you just can't replicate with other cooking methods, and it definitely stands out. They also give a generous amount of sides and avocado with every taco, which I really appreciated. I ordered the tripe, chorizo, and carne asada tacos. The carne asada was good--nice flavor overall, though it could use just a touch more salt. Still very enjoyable and easy to overlook. I'd give the asada a 8/10. The tripe taco was where I struggled a bit. I usually like tripe with a bit of bite and crunch, but this one was way too crunchy. At one point I genuinely wondered if I was going to crack a tooth . It also needed more salt.If they cooked this a little less honestly this would be much higher on my rating. I'd rate the tripe a 5.5/10. The chorizo was well cooked and flavorful. Like many places now, the seasoning was lighter so you can adjust it yourself, which I don't mind at all. I'd give the chorizo a 7/10. Overall, this is a decent taco truck with some solid flavors and good portions. Worth checking out, especially if you appreciate charcoal-grilled meat.

The tortillas are fresh and delicious, and every meal comes out piping hot. The value is incredible--you get generous portions of high-quality food at great prices.

We eat here several times a week, and the quality has been consistently excellent every single visit. Highly recommend!

My friends and I have been looking for good tacos in the Irvine/Santa Ana area and came here to…read moretest our luck. This taco truck is located on a street with a lot of other vendors, including multiple other taco trucks and churro and crepe trucks/stands. It wasn't too busy when we arrived at 11pm on a Friday night. My friends and I ordered primarily al pastor and carne asada tacos. The cashier couldn't speak any English, which we took as a good sign. Tacos were $3 each. It took about 15 minutes for all our tacos to come out (12 in total), but I saw they were making everything fresh and to order in the truck. When we got our tacos, they were so fresh and hot it was a bit hard to hold initially. The meat was flavorful and tender, and guac was included on top. Salsa could be found in the ice among the drinks, which almost all of them are pretty spicy. These were solid tacos and at a good large size. The only negative I have is that the salsa they put on each taco is pretty spicy and overwhelming. I usually handle spice pretty well, but in this case it was a bit too much of a kick that built up over time. I basically took off about half the salsa that was on my tacos and that was the perfect balance of heat and flavor. Overall, I would rate this place about 3.75 stars, mainly because the area is convenient to reach and this is one of the better options. This would be a place to come to if my friends and I didn't want to drive out to LA or to North OC for tacos. The portions and meat were good, but the salsa took a bit away for me.

We came during the middle of the week during the lunch hour, and we got there just in time before several different groups of people got in line. You place your order at the register with a staff member. There are a few tables inside the shop and several tables in the outdoor patio. While we were waiting, almost every other group behind us also ordered the fish tacos. Our food came out pretty quickly. The battered fish was not that crispy. It came with diced tomatoes and cabbage and sauce. The one thing that stood out was the tortilla, which was not that tasty. It was not homemade and was rather plain. I think that makes the food not as special. I did not dislike it, but it was not that memorable. I'm not sure if I would return. If I was nearby, I would try other items on the menu.

It was perfect and balanced with all the ingredients as they should. Give this place a shot!

I noticed Taco Pronto when I was in the same center eating at another restaurant. I noted that I…read morewanted to check it out sometime. There was plenty of parking right up front. There was no one else dining inside since I came after the lunch rush. One other person came in to get a drink while I was there. There are a good number of tables in the dining room. The lady who took my order must've been tired or something because she wasn't having it. I kept it quick and simple and didn't ask any questions. Needed to pick up something for a late lunch and got a couple of burritos. Saved the other carne asada burrito for my husband. I ordered the Surf and Turf which sounded like a popular burrito. To my dismay, I was disappointed with this burrito. Firstly, the size and quantity was not equivalent to the price of the burrito which was $14.50. Since I wasn't in the mood for french fries, they said it would be substituted with rice. OK, great I like rice. However, it ended up being about 90% rice. The meat portion was so skimpy and to top it off, the meat did not taste that great. It was not very flavorful and the shrimp was not fresh, but rather most likely frozen. The salsa didn't help that much either. For the Carne Asada burrito, my husband felt the same way about his burrito. I did not say anything to him about mine until he shared his opinion first. He said that there was only a little bit of meat in his Carne Asada burrito. Note, there's also a 3% surcharge on a credit card payment. I always try to dine at family restaurants, but we were not satisfied with our food. I'm willing to give them another try and will order other types of dishes next time.
