Stopped to get gas off highway 58 and spotted the sign for pupusas and had to give this truck a try! It's located directly across the street from the Shell gas station. I was greeted by the friendly hostess at the order window and the menu was nearby to see the extreme variety of meats that you normally don't see at restaurants in the bay! If you haven't tried before, order the cabeza, tripa and lengua tacos! I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Full of flavor and beef that just melts in your mouth. I'd drive back a hundred plus miles just to have these again. The papusas are worth a try if you haven't tried before. They're a solid choice and I'd go with the pork and beans if you're a first timer. It's a bit hot out in Buttonwillow during the summer but they do have a bit of shade and few tables as you enjoy your authentic tacos! read more

Found this truck at a stop on the way back to NorCal from SoCal. It was kind of parked off the road near a gas station. There are tables to sit and eat if you didn't want to take your food in the car. The service was quite slow, we had to wait 30 mins for 2 pupusas which was kind of surprising. The pupusas themselves were ok. We tried the pork one and the jalapeño one. They were both just ok. Nothing special. They were very sparse with filling. read more

Keep in mind this is a food truck. The original restaurant is a block down, however I think they shut it down so they can be closer to the freeway and get more business. I have been eating here for years, both when they were out of the building and here at the truck. I'm Salvadoran by heritage and I have been there.... these pupusas are the best I have ever found stateside! My 5 stars is purely on that basis that you cannot find better than here. If you're looking for for ambience and fancy this is not your place, but you just want a good meal and don't mind a picnic table this is the spot! read more

Tita's Pupuseria Truck - The truck and tables. - Mexican Near Me - Buttonwillow, California

Best pu pu pu pupusas on the I-5! When traveling, I'd take pupusas over In-N-Out any day. Yes, I just said that and I'm from California too. Oh boy, don't kill me hardcore fans. I've been coming here for over a decade and finally just now taking a minute to showcase them.. not like they really need it. They're the best around town and people know it. Tita's used to have an actual restaurant way in the back AND a food truck in front of AM/PM, but the restaurant didn't offer much more. The restaurant isn't there anymore, but the food truck still is. Anyway, the ambiance of the food truck is way better. Open outside seating under a shaded covering. Which means dog friendly! These are the best pupusas ever!! Why? 1. They are grilled to crispy perfection. 2. They are FATTIES, loaded with gooey cheese and filling. 3. The dough to filling ratio is perfect. The dough isn't too thick or dense. Calabaza Pupusa (Squash) 5/5* Loroco Pupusa (Loroco Flower) 5/5* I can never remember which one I like more, so I always order both! Both are extremely cheesy and will ooze out once you cut into it. There are nice bits of squash or loroco flower that give some texture. The flavor is on the bland side, but paired with curtido and salsa, it's perfecto.. Revuelta Pupusa (Chicharron) 4/5* These aren't the fat chunks of chicharron you eat as a snack. It's minced down and scattered throughout the cheese and isn't very strong in pork flavor. However, you do get a bit of saltiness that you don't get in the Calabaza or Loroco. Not my favorite but it's the only pupusa choice with meat. Tacos 5/5* These street tacos come with handmade fluffy, soft corn tortillas, loaded with your choice of protein, the works-cilantro, onion, with sides of lime, radish, red salsa, and a green guacamole type salsa. I got the tripa and asada and both were juicy with great flavors. Sausage Breakfast Burrito 5/5* I thought this would be subpar, but wow was it satisfying! It was huge and evenly distributed, so you get a good mouthful of all ingredients in each bite. The flour tortilla was soft and meat wasn't dry. As soon as you place your order, you hear the ladies inside the truck slapping them around, so you know they're made fresh to order. The pupusas come out SO hot and crispy, once you cut into one, the scalding hot gooey cheese oozes out and burns a layer of your lips off. But it's soo worth it. Cool it down with the sweet & sour refreshing crunch of curtido, slather on some spicy salsa, and you have the perfect bite. Next time you're passing Buttonwillow, do your tastebuds a favor and try these amazing pupusas. The exit isn't very obvious with the signage so probably best to Google Maps your way there. There are also two other food trucks around selling pupusas, etc., but don't get confused and make sure you're going to Tita's. You can tell which one by the crowds of folks eating at the tables. read more

Tita's Pupuseria Truck - Loroco Pupusa - So loaded it's a beautiful hot cheesy mess. - Mexican Near Me - Buttonwillow, California

4 stars because they were a little slow on the day that we came. This is a food truck so the atmosphere and ambiance isn't much to write home about. We ordered the Al pastor and carne asada tacos and the loroco/cheese and jalapeno/cheese pupusas. The tacos were good, the Al pastor was obviously better than the asada. Among the pupusas, the loroco was interesting because the taste reminded me of what jasmine flowers smell like. There was lots of cheese in both pupusas and they were fat and stuffed. I liked the jalapeno/cheese a lot and thought they could've added more jalapenos. The accompanying sauces were good but the coleslaw was just average. This is a great road side stop if you want good Salvadoran food. They have open air parking right next to the truck. Just be prepared for whatever the weather is going to be like. read more

Tita's is an overlooked Pupusa truck right off interstate 5 heading north in Buttonwillow. To be honest it was my first time at the Truck I hadn't been since there restaurant closed down a few years back. I gotta tell you though the quality has stayed the same and the Pupusa's are just as big and delicious as I remember. The prices are still reasonable considering the location and it being right off the 5. Unless you're starving or just have a big appetite I would say don't order more than 2 Pupusa's. My favorite are the Revuletas and the Loroco. The salsa is more of a tomato based and not hot at all in my opinion and the cortido served on the side is really delicious. This review is solely based on the Pupusa's, of course they have other stuff on the menu but I stop for my Pupusa fix. To be honest I haven't tried anything else. read more

Tita's Pupuseria Truck - Bomb Pupusa's - Mexican Near Me - Buttonwillow, California

This place is FIRE! I grew up with Central Americans so I am very familiar with the flavor profiles authentic pupusas should have. THIS IS IT!!! Believe it or not, this truck has better pupusas than most spots in LA area. The masa is fresh, not too dense and perfectly salted. They're pretty big in size, I typically eat 2-3 with the pickled cabbage and salsas. They take a bit to make so order ahead if you're in a rush. Trust me so worth the wait. Plus, all pupusas have a wait time due to being handmade to order. All of the pupusas have a healthy amount of cheese and coke out super hot, perfect for those belly's after a cold night of driving along the 5 fwy. They also have Salvadoran horchata which is SO GOOD!! not heavy at all. Made me feel like I was at my aunties house getting served by family. I love that they also offer Mexican favorites like tacos and burritos. Personally this truck has some of my favorite Latino dishes to offer. Very excited to find this on our way back from the bay. This is my new designated rest stop pick! Love!!! read more

Called in a pupusa combo of pork and cheese, been and cheese pupusas. Side of beans and rice. Everything was yummy! Bonus it came with a spicy cabbage slaw.

Nice people, good food, generous proportions. Glad to have a tasty fresh food option on this lousy I-5 drive.

My brother and sister-in-law recommended this place. It was featured as one of the best food stops on I-5 from the Bay Area to Los Angeles on sfgate.com: https://www.sfgate.com/food/article/Best-food-stops-on-I-5-between-Bay-Area-LA-6976448.php My brother suggested ordering the pork carnitas burrito without lettuce, so that the burrito doesn't get soggy. I did and he was right. Burrito was $12, huge and delicious with a kick, but too spicy for me. I'll try the pupusa next time and will call 15 min ahead of time. I'll definitely be back! read more

Like lots of people said - this is THE place to stop on that long haul stretch of I-5 between NorCal and SoCal, and pupusas are what you'll want to order. They are on point - big portions (1 is plenty for me for lunch), the curtido is flavorful with the perfect crunch, and the crispy cheese that oozed out is just perfection. Call ahead so you don't have to wait. You won't be disappointed. read more

Tita's Pupuseria Truck - Drink menu - Mexican Near Me - Buttonwillow, California

Took extremely long!!! Charged a dollar for extra salsa plus a dollar credit card fee. They only gave one salsa and one sliver of a lime for 4 tacos!!!! All I ordered was 4 tacos and I waited 30 minutes!!!! Never again... please don't come here. There was no line gene I arrived and I still waited that long. Carne asada was dry.. pastor was coo, not great read more

Read an article about this place and decided to try instead of stopping at Harris Ranch. Highly recommend. The food is great at an affordable price. read more

Stopped across the street for a quick gas stop and noticed tita's truck while pumping gas. Checked Yelp and needed to try the rave reviews. Went simple and got one bean and cheese pupusa and a Salvadoran horchata. My family is from El Salvador so I'm particular when it comes to pupusas. Size, price, curtido, salsa, all play a factor in my overall judgement. Happy to report, It was all delicious!! Perfect size for the price and the flavor was beyond my expectations. It was fresh to order and the horchata hit the spot. Curtido was great and salsa was good too. We might make a stop when he head back home. Definitely recommend! Not feeling pupusas, well they have a large menu of other items including Mexican :) read more

Tita's Pupuseria Truck - Bean and cheese pupusa with their salsa and Curtido. Delicious! - Mexican Near Me - Buttonwillow, California

Delicious! Well worth the stop:). We had pupusas and tacos and they did not disappoint. Will be back soon!

They add a tip without telling customers while paying with card for an order that was to go! This is actually against the law, they also charge 2.50 for 7 pupusas and $1 to use card the tip they added was $7 read more

This is the perfect stop if you are on a drive and want to stop for a leisurely bite. My family stopped in on a Friday afternoon and ordered seven pupusas. They came out in less than 10min. even with a fair amount of people ahead of us. The pupusas were much bigger than we anticipated! The portions are quite generous and I would've been adequately full with just one pupusa. (My husband ate two and each kiddo was happy with a half.) The revueltas was our favorite and the bean and cheese was also full of flavor and delicious. We'll definitely be back next time we are coming through! Things to note: 1. This is a food truck with an outside patio area. 2. There are definitely flies around but they did not bother us nor take away from our dining experience. 3. Portion sizes are generous. read more

The pupusas revueltas hit the spot! Very authentic salvadorean pupusas highly recommend this blue colored taco truck spot off the freeway read more

This place is legit. We spent about $70 for the 3 of us. If you use a card it is $1 extra but I tipped also so I didn't matter. We had 17 tacos, a large drink, plantains, and a pupusa. Ate it all up, minus the extra tortilla. We were stuffed and happy for our lunch stop. Top ones for us were the Alpastor, shrimp, and Leunga. This will be marked as our road trip stop from now. There are gas stations and a McD's. So we picked up from this place to eat in the AC comfort of McD's. My girls wanted nuggets. Win-win since it was 100 degrees! Tip: Call in your order. There was about 6 tickets before us and it took about 30 mins to make our large order. read more

Tita's Pupuseria Truck - Lunch stop - Mexican Near Me - Buttonwillow, California

We stop here occasionally while driving from northern CA to southern CA. Never an issue. Food this time was mediocre at best. Service was not great. We sat for way too long to get our food amongst a swarm of flies, while others got their food and left. We had planned to sit and eat there but after sitting in the heat and flies for about 30 minutes we chose to get it and go and find shade and eat on our tailgate with no flies. Then didn't get the order I asked for twice when ordering. When my husband said something there was no apology just a this is what you ordered. Then i went up and said something to her about not getting it right because she was on the phone and again no apology just a oh so you want to order beans and rice? No! I wanted you to hear me when I said what I wanted twice while you were on the freaking phone. If you can't multitask then don't try it. I would not recommend this place based on the very poor service I got today. And I have recommended it in the past but will not be stopping here again. Only giving one star because I have to, otherwise it would be no stars based in today. read more

Great roadside food truck to stop off at on the drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Portions were bigger than I expected, so I shouldn't have ordered the special, just two pupusas, which were both huge. I had one with squash and cheese and the other one with cheese and pork. Sure beats chain based burger joints. read more

Tita's Pupuseria Truck - Mexican Near Me - Buttonwillow, California

Decided to stop by coming from the bay to LA, found it on yelp obviously! Grabbed a quesadilla and some tacos! $24 - 4 tacos 1 quesadilla and a large drink My carne asada quesadilla was okay! It was definitely disproportionate the cheese overtook the meat. It was also pretty greasy but the meat was yummy! It also came with a side of a salad and sour creme which was fresh and I enjoyed! 6/10 My wife got carnita tacos and she says she wishes she got more of the softer meat as she mostly got the crispy crunchy meat! She says everything went well with the salsa and limes! I also grabbed a bite and I actually love brunt foods so I quiet enjoyed the crispy ness in the taco with the spicy red salsa and limes! 6/10 from me and my wife! I want to mention that my favorite thing out of everything was the horchata it was perfectly balanced with all the flavors the rice cinnamon and milk! 11/10 There was lots of parking and tables for you to sit and eat if you'd like! The place was also well kept with trash cans available. They also provided a lot of sauces which I'm a big fan of I love me some salsas, I enjoyed all of them! Overall If I was completely starving and everything was closed I would stop by and maybe grab tacos! read more

Waited 30 mins for food. Good food but don't come if you're thinking of making a quick stop

Loroco Papusa, Bistek platter, Shrimp and Fish tacos, and fried sweet Plantains. Salsa was yummy. Fresh avocado. Everything was delicious and tasty. Served on sturdy plates and absorbent napkins. They don't skimp on anything. Consistent good quality all around. Shaded dining. Stopped on our way to San Francisco and will come again. Hand sanitizer provided. read more

Food: Very good Service: Took the order and delivered the food but no smiles. Unfriendly lady and had to ask for fork and knife and each time go up. Why don't you just hand it out along with the food. This place could be good if the owners kept the area clean. 2/3 of their garbage bins don't have lids so there are tons of flies and wasps around. The tables are not wiped. Since the garbage bins don't have lids, and it's a windy area, there is garbage all over the place. We rushed through our food because the flies were too annoying, constantly trying to sit on our food. Until they clean up the place, I do not recommend it. read more

Love Tita's Pupuseria! One of the BEST carnitas tacos ever!! A perfect stop on the drive between LA and SF.

Great pupusas they are big and the beef soup is big enough for two people but I devour it myself laughing out loud

We try to stop here when driving between northern and Southern California. I always look forward to it! Squash blossom pupusa is the best!

Highly recommend stopping here for pupusas ! Comes with the perfect amount of salsa Roja and Curtido

If you are looking for a lunch stop that's not fast food Tita's truck is the spot! They have covered seating with plenty of picnic tables and a parking lot adjacent.
