    I bit into the mulita before taking the picture haha. Pickled carrots was yummy too.

    We asked Siri who had the best tacos in Salem, OR and these folks were on the short list, so we tried it Friday night and it was DEE-licious!!! Not only were they authentic tacos and probably some of the best we've ever had the customer service was excellent! Aldo and the crew took such good care of us and even allowed us to sample a mulita which we came back today to get and sent us back home (we were on vacation with) with a warm Champurrado. We will always come back any time we fly into Portland, to make the trip to Salem to have their tacos and Mulitas and try everything else we didn't get to taste.

    Fresh avocado in the center and melted cheese. So good.

    By far the best tacos I've had in Salem. My first time trying this place out and definitely not my last. Great variety of food and drink options all at great prices. I ordered the taco plate, one mulita de asada. The taco plate comes with rice and beans which are both flavorful and the mulita comes with steak (asada) and avocado stuffed between layers of melted cheese and two tortillas. This place is underrated. Don't forget to try the horchata too.

    Whoa! This is just a GREAT truck - DO NOT MISS!!! Try the Mulitas these are terrific! I used to go to another truck weekly but wanted to stretch out my taste buds and this was an amazing stop. Now my new weekly treat! Must try some of everything. And get it NOW. They told me they'll shut down for the winter - makes me sad but will be ready for spring time tacos!!! thank you! xoxoxo Cat your new fan

    Everything that I have been searching for in a taqueria ! Food is seriously amazing. Very impressed I definitely will be back !

    Super Mulita Plate. I got 1 chicken & 1 beef mulita. Both were bomb!

    Best mulitas ever!!! I drove here from Portland and will definitely be coming back even though it's a far drive. The mulitas were bomb! So cheesy, the chicken and beef were soft and flavorful and the avocado was fresh. The rice and beans were good too! They were nice and quick with the service. Highly recommend!

    One random morning it was all about finding goodness before the park and I must say they were doing…read moreit right here in just that way! So of the many delicious options I went with the machaca burrito and hands down this is one of the best ones I've ever had as the burrito was served to me super hot like soo hot I couldn't even eat it for a minute which is something I love to see from the start, and let me say that flavor of the meat with the eggs, jalapeno, and tomato's was spot on like just soo good to the point it took me back in the Rolodex of memories to my favorite place to get these burrito's and that never happens! If they weren't enough they had an awesome salsa bar with some delicious salsas all of which were good like really good and just added soo much to an already delicious machaca burrito! Also at the salsa bar they had a pot with whole grilled jalapeños and onions inside and I must say this is always a nice touch when restaurants do this as it adds soo much more to whatever your enjoying! The lady working was nice the place was chill and clean and they had a drive thru and a claw machine it doesn't get any better than this! Overall I wish I lived closer to here as I would seriously go here all the time as my burrito was that good, with that said who knows if I'll get back here again but let's just say it's definitely not out of the question should I get to.

    I typically love this place but something have gone downhill, well I would not recommend a crispy…read moretaco 5 bucks for a 3.5 mini taco , no thanks, the carnitas is the star of the show but lately been super fatty so not sue whats going on.
