“Jessica's taco truck have been here for years, and they always seem to please my appetite, as they have all different types of meats, and different plates. Their food is freshly made, and the meats are juicy, and tender.
Theres plenty of parking, and as well seating under their covered earring area. Just try not to pay attention to the train that passes by,as well you occasionally seated bagger.“

“Excellent food and wonderful service. The owner always greets you with a smile. I always get the carnitas burrito, but today I got a chile relleno. Also excellent. Get in here and get you some!“

“Excellente servicio, conida muy rica! Definitivamente regresamos!“

“First time eating here, I would recommend it. Everything was great! Our group had burritos 🌯 and tacos🌮 and both were very good. The man who took our order was friendly & even had a lil' treat for us to try, a vampiro, it was very good! The prices were also very good. I like the way the truck is painted, it is noticeable. A must try!“

“Listen, I am picky when it comes to Mexican food. My grandma‘s set the bar high. And there are two specific dishes that I always order at a new restaurant, and that is Caldo de Res and Chile Rellenos…these are basic dishes but I’m beyond snobby when it comes to them. If they mess these up then I will never go back. Lupita’s Homestyle Cocina exceeded my expectations. The chile relleno was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. Lupitas only cooks caldo de res on Thursdays and it just so happened to be a Thursday when I ordered. The Caldo de Res tasted like home. I know she used the beef bones to make the broth because you can taste the oils. It was cooked to perfection with big chopped vegetables and nice sized chunks of beef. We also ordered the pick 3 and got Chile relleno, chicken enchilada, and a chicken chimichanga. It came with a nice sized helping of beans and rice. I got a monster burrito with beef and it was no joke! HUGE burrito and it had everything I wanted in a burrito (beef, whole beans, rice, cheese, guacamole, and pico de gallo. The sour cream was on the side and it was served with your choice of red or green sauce over it. Bomb. I got a flan for desert and oh my goodness. I seriously didn’t expect much because the food was good enough. But dang, that flan was spectacular. The perfect consistency and the Carmel top of the flan was so creamy and smooth. It didn’t have that burnt taste that a lot of flans have. All in all, I was impressed by every dish. I would say that the refried beans were a bit salty, but the Mexican rice more than made up for that. I took time to write this because it deserves praise and hopefully gains more business as its location is tucked away behind the KFC on Oakdale road.“

“terrible food quality and customer service. the picture shows what should be a burrito. but received an expensive mess. didn't get what I ordered and the staff will not admit they messed up and gets defensive. Terrible Customer service. will also skip out on cheese on top of a wet burrito like all the other taquerias do so you get charged more for less food.“

“Thank you so much for the amazing food! My mothers celabration for life was amazing, true athentic food. The highest recemedation if you plan a event, they went over and beyound, staff was truly sweet and accommodating. -;))“

“Love Love Javis Modesto! Great Vibe, great service, great food! Bryant is an outstanding kind hearted all around guy. His staff are all AMAZING! a huge shout out, to Josh El Cantinero! thanks guys for being awesome!“

“The quality took me back 10+ years. I have not tasted this legitimate quality of burrito and tacos in over a decade. Between the Bay Area, the Southern part of the Central Valley to the Modesto area. It's been over 10 years, and the best Burrito still REMAINS on 8th Street!

The burrito flavor sent chills down my spine, anchoring me to past memories to when quality was worth your money. Customer service I received was also top tier with positive, helpful, and cheerful attitude.

Stopped by in the morning which typically has some homeless strolling around which was typical years ago and apparently seems to have not changed. I'll have to return at night to see if the vibe is still there.

Really enjoyed coming back to this taco truck. Prices are definitely reasonable and when accompanied with my favorite part, coming here is non-negotiable for my family moving forward, even if it takes us driving across town.“

“This man has been around for years and has always had some delicious tacos and burritos made with love.“

“The rice they make is the best rice ever. Even tops el tequila rice.“

“I'm literally obsessed with this place. I found out about it on Tiktok. I'm from Turlock so anytime I'm in Modesto I make sure to go. I always get their chicken family pack and it comes with beans, rice, macaroni salad, and lots of corn tortillas. I also get their pork ribs with bbq and omg it's the best! They grill their meat outside so when you pull into the parking lot you could see and smell it. I always take it to go, and they're very fast with your orders and friendly customer service. They have nice seating inside too with big flat screen TV's. Honestly guys I'm Mexican and have tried a lot of places but this place is definitely a hidden gem. A little hole in the wall 🩷“

“Lo megor de lo megor nosotros venimos des de Redwood City Nomas a comer ay siempre delicioso todo“

“Great food even greater staff“

“My boyfriend just dropped off a meal for me at my house because I’m not feeling well. WOW! Best chicken enchiladas I ever had! Best RICE. BEST BEANS! I called him and had to know where this food came from. I have never written a review. This is my first. I told him when I’m feeling better this is our new Favorite place.“

“Have been going here for the last 8 or 9 years back when they were in woodville. Now I drive 30 mins just to get their delicious food. Have tried numerous taco spots around the valley and without a doubt they have the best food. Have yet to find a better place for an asada burrito a their salsa is the best!“

“Loved it delicious service is amazing!!!“

“My wife likes the Menudo that they prepare here. It is one of the places where the flavor of Guadalajara Menudo is best and they always serve you well. Well, at least I don't have any bad experience. Maybe there was a group playing, the truth is, I don't even know if they have live music on Sundays or it was just for that day, but I didn't ask, I owe it to them.“

“Las mejores tortas ahogadas 🤭 yum 😋“

“One of the top spots for delicious burritos and tacos right here in town—I really recommend this place! The meat is consistently high quality, and the service is just as wonderful. Whenever you visit, you'll be treated so well. Absolutely worth a visit!“

“This burrito place needs to come to the Bay Area PLEASE ‼️‼️‼️MY BURRITO WAS SOO GOOD‼️‼️‼️ My Pastor burrito 🌯 was so good. My Mother in laws Carne Asada burrito is HONESTLY GOOD!!! The tacos 🌮 are really juicy and good as well.“

“Great food, friendly service. Google didn’t disappoint me, visiting for work I had a very nice dinner.“

“I've only tried the asada tacos and they are definitely good but nothing crazy. I like the fine shredded cheese. Tortillas have a very slight burn to them. Service is lightening quick. I stop here whenever I'm driving through Empire.“

“Good tacos and people carnitas y cuero“

“Today we had a retirement party at La Parilla with about 35 people. It went flawless! The staff was super helpful and kind. They food was great. Everything was perfect and everyone had a great time. The price point was perfect too. It exceeded my expectations! Thanks La Parilla!!“

“The food is really good and I come here with my mother all the time. I really like the tacos here, and the service is fantastic with polite employees. This area of downtown isn't really the prettiest, but it's worth the food. I definitely recommend coming here.“

“my husband ordered the wedding chicken burrito supreme, and I ordered the flout. Thus both of our dishes were amazing. The service was impeccable. We had a wonderful time and we definitely highly recommend this place.“

“great food and service. very clean“

“Solid tacos. Tried the carnitas and pollo. Love that the offer $1.00 tacos on Tuesdays and Thursdays! Needed some grilled jalapeños and sliced radishes. Wish they had some outdoor tables to eat there.“

“I went here because we drove by and I haven’t been to this flea market in a while. Walked around. Grabbed a churro and was hungry. Stumbled upon this place and I’m glad I did. I ordered a Gordita with asada and my wife ordered 2 tacos. Handmade tortillas and I tried 4 difference salsas. So good. So nice and warm and FRESH! This has to be my new favorite taco truck in Modesto flea market for sure! Thanks Martin and familia! Next time I’ll try the machete. The huge quesadilla! 10/10“

“Today was the first time I ate here I thought I would try it out and I’m glad I did. The food was amazing. The staff was very pleasant, & the establishment was very clean as well. I ordered a Chile Rellano & a burrito, my sister order a tamale, & the flautas patter. I am always skeptical trying new places but I will keep coming back as the consistency of the food and the taste was just what I like. Thank you for the amazing experience“

“Fui en la mañana a las delicias y me quedé impresionado con el buen servicio Muy recomendable la comida 10/10“

“SO GOOD 🔥! I had the sopes, pastor tacos, and tripa tacos. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. The tripa was nicely crispy, and the pastor had amazing seasoning. Friendly staff and quick service. Great street-style vibe—nothing fancy, but that’s what makes it feel authentic and enjoyable. Definitely a go-to spot!“

“Great food. Great service. Great prices.
But they told me they've been in business for 40 years with the same cook. I couldn't believe that I'd never stopped there before.
That and itself is a statement of how good it is.“
