44 Best Food Trucks near Pacific Palisades

“I don't even eat at gracis senor, but I am writing this review because there is a local law firm called Davis Wright and Tremaine that has been harassing the local taco vendors for the past few weeks in the Pacific Palisades. Apparently the law firm has delivered threatening letters to Gracias Senor (the daytime taco truck), as well as the nighttime pop-up tent-based taco vendors, and perhaps the other trucks as well. There are clearly a coalition of palisades karens who have nothing constructive to do with their time and therefore seek to destroy the hard work of local businesses, lessening the beauty of the Palisades in the process. These same anti-taco-truck karens are probably the same types of people who yelled at people for not taking covid vaccines two years ago: the type of people who thrive on the oppression of the free will of other human beings and live to control others, for it gives them a false sense of empowerment and meaning. These anti-taco karens would clearly like for every single establishment in the palisades to be bland, overpriced, licensed and regulated by some nonsensical city governing body, and close early. The good news is that for every one of the anti-taco Karens who seek to oppress the small business owners, there are twenty more people who support the taco vendors! Don't be intimidated by Davis Wright and Tremaine and the karen army.“

“Got a couple of cheese slices. Apparently New Jersey style.They were perfectly crunchy but the sauce could use some work. And while I like a good caramelized burnt crusty edge on my squares just as much as the next square lover, these actually ended up being a tad too burnt (especially in the corners) and lacked the crust synergy that can make square slices a delight to eatThe manager helped me out. He was chill and answered all my question while dropping a little knowledge in the process.It's got potential, just don't see it having the foot traffic in this area. Hopefully the ghost que has its back.It's a probably a 3.5 but I'm rounding up because I'd go back. Square pizza is still surprisingly uncommon in LA county. Emmy Squared is the only other I can think of that specializes. Mostly an afterthought at the places that do have a Sicilian or Grandma.“

“From start to finish Teddy’s was a 10/10. I got the deluxe plate and was not disappointed in the least. Everything was made to perfection and the consume was wonderful. The salsa had the perfect kick to it and you can’t beat the staff and ambience. I unfortunately am only visiting the area so I’ll just have to dream about eating their tacos on repeat.“

“SOOOOO soo good!! Always look forward to stopping by whoever the truck is at. Highly recommend the Classic burger and also the Chicken katsu sandwich. Thé gorgonzola on thé burger is DELICIOUS. The veggies are crisp and fresh. And the sauces are homemade, so so delicious. A MUST try“

“Love this taco stand. I take all my friends here. The food is delicious and the staff is delightful. The Al pastor is my favorite!Parking: Plenty of parking on the street and there's a Ralph's/Rite Aid parking lot you could use as well.“

“This is the best shawarma place EVER!! I don’t usually write reviews but this one’s worth it! The chicken shawarma and beef pita is absolutely amazing and delicious. And if you add fries right inside your shawarma it’s like so yummy I can’t even describe! You will not find shawarma like this anywhere in LA!!P.S. couldn’t take proper picture because was too busy eating my shawarma“

“Shrimply AMAZING!!!! My Buddy has been telling me about this place for years and it's right down the street from my office. Finally the shrimps aligned and I got my ass down to the truck. Service is good. Food comes out super fast. I started with 3 fried shrimp tacos and 6 oysters. Let's talk about the tacos. Perfectly fried, crunchy and the shrimp bits were chopped chunky and was mixed with some kind of stuffing. Avocado slices and salsa topping was perfection. The flavors blended perfectly! The oysters were delicious! I've never had an oyster w salsa topped with a slice of octopus or a whole shrimp before. Super hearty and delicious. It took away from the taste of the oyster, but still very very good. These tacos are so amazing I had to get another three. 6 tacos, 6 oysters and a jarriotos w 20% tip was about $40. I wish they had tables or something to grub on, but slamming these tacos down on red plastic stools worked just fine. Def coming back!!!“

“This is on the upper end of Taco food trucks, but it’s absolutely worth the price. I had the shrimp tostada and the mahi mahi taco. Both were excellent. I walked away from that truck promising myself I come back again.Really good food and worth a hike, would recommend driving and eating out of your trunk.“

“Absolutely incredible food. Best surf and turf burrito I’ve ever had. Tried the rojinegro per their namesake, and it was pretty yummy; especially the octopus. Also got some asada tacos. Fish taco was ok. Owners were also super nice and let our toddler watch them hook the food truck up to their pickup.“

“I’m here on a work trip and needed something in the area quickly.My previous career was in cheffing for 10 years so I have great Knowledge.Excellent foodExcellent serviceExcellent experienceThank you and don’t forget the tall Australian from Vancouver“

“The reviews about the falafel being amazing are 100% accurate. This was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve had, so good that I went back for seconds.Really well cooked falafel, fresh and airy soft pita, diced cucumber and tomato full of flavor, and a range of sides to help heighten the meal further (special shoutout to their amazing homemade spicy sauce and really well done tahini sauce).Can’t wait to return.“

“they're just wonderful! i have been visiting bittiebitez for about a year and ive always been satisfied with the quality of their warm mini donuts. its so fun to watch the donuts fall into the fryer through the large glass window in the front of the truck. they're always so very nice here, i'm always so happy to stop by when they're in town. they post the truck schedule on their instagram every week, they're pretty mobile so they might even come by you! if you're looking for a fun pack of mini donuts for you or to share, this is the spot! delicious donuts and great value in larger quantities;)“

“La La Lasagna is to die for and if I was dying, I would want this as my last meal. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say this is my favorite food to eat *ever* and I have a child-like giddiness when I have the chance to stop by this truck.Chef Michelangelo is the nicest man on the planet and I'm happy to give him all my money. Do yourself a big favor and RUN to get some.“

“Literally the best taco truck on the westside. You can smell all the amazing smells as you're driving by. The prices are reasonable and the service is lovely. My only critique is that maybe they should consider adding some small chairs/tablesBut overall SO IMPRESSED with this taco truck. Their Birria is never super oily which is what I've noticed with other Birria places. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!“

“Absolutely delicious and great service! You can pick two meats in a burrito which was music to my ears and my carne asada and el pastor burrito was amazing (and huge). If you are in the area, stop here, and apparently you can order ahead as well.“

“Omg, i don't usually write reviews, but these sliders were sooo damn good. I got the combo that comes with two sliders, fries and a drink. I got one of each slider, the SS way and the other option. The service was great, and he checked on me to tell me how many many more minutes. This is a food truck and there is some outdoor seating under a canopy.“

“The crispy chicken tacos are soooo good! & I usually don’t like hard shell tacos. The service & staff is amazing, they really take the time to make sure everything you ordered is perfect, & if it’s not they don’t hesitate to correct it.“

“If you're not here, then you're missing out! Had the burrito and the crispy tacos...and...man o man! Super delicious!!! I would have taken pictures, but the food was gone before I could post anything. The tacos were deliciously crispy, while the meat was marinated to perfection. The garnishes on the side, cucumbers, and radishes, were the perfect addition to my meal. Ordered three of these bad boys with a side of Mexican Coke. Pure cane sugar is so much better than High fructose corn syrup. My wife had the burrito. It was juicy, had all the right seasoning, and fell apart like any delicious burrito should.. Also, I said delicious a ton of times. Because it is! It's delicious!!!“

“Found this on a search, the food off the truck was off the chain. From tacos with guacamole plus everything else to vampiro the taste was delicious & authentic. As we drove up we witnessed customers eating on their vehicles, so when in Rome do as the Romans. I haven’t eaten on a car since my teenage years, and there I stood at 60 being the old wild one of the bunch. Excellent food, a must try for both residents & travelers!!!“

“(Translated by Google) MA Diaz is very pretty. The breaded tostadas and tacos are super fresh and delicious. One hundred and past.(Original)MA Diaz es muy linda. Las tostadas y los tacos empanizados están súper fresh y ricas. Al cien y pasaditos.“

“Great burger ... really great. Sadly, it's overpriced for what you get. It's a thing I would only get if the line was non-existent. Standing in a long line for an overpriced burger is over-rated.The fries are spectacular. They are cooked in beef tallow...like McDonalds did back in the day.“

“Some seriously good tacos! Ordered the Al Pastor and Carne Asada. The Asada were good but nothing to write home about, but the Al Pastor was delish! Served with a thin slice of pineapple, a side of the freshest lemons, onions & cilantro, and sliced radishes. The Al Pastor is tasty and even better with a squeeze of lemon! The truck has friendly employees serving up their tacos and taking orders. They accept Apple Pay, credit cards, debit and cash. Though the tacos are priced right at under $3.00. They also set up a few tables and chairs so you can sit and enjoy. And unlike many taco trucks, the tables are regularly cleaned down and they had a sunshade tucked to the side of required! I'll be back to try the Vampire Taco and California Burrito for sure!“

“Best taco truck in the game! Great service! everyone is always kind and has a great attitude, parking is always easy, tables outside to sit down if you want and the tacos are always served with great sides and it's delicious all together“

“I found this taco truck online a few months ago and I was really excited to check it out because I was in the area. I got the world famous short rib tacos and burrito, along with the Sriracha bar. I loved the tacos and burrito! The galbi flavors really came through. I was curious about the Sriracha bar though. I ordered it because it was unique and I didn't know what to expect. It turned out to be a rice crispie bar with caramel filling dipped in chocolate. I didn't taste any Sriracha until my last 3 or 4 bites. If the Sriracha was more thoroughly mixed throughout the bar, I would have enjoyed it much more.“

“The chicken strips are amazing, the chicken sandwich are amazing. I've had so far the hot honey, mild, and original. I would say that the hot honey would be the best, still need to try the other flavors. The mild was ok, it was more of the seasoning instead of a sauce which was kind of disappointing, but still enjoyable. The fries were decent, but to be fair it would've been better if I would've eaten the fries then and there instead of waiting to get home. Overall, the service is great, I ordered online and as soon as I got there it was ready for pickup. Great vegan chicken spot!“

“Fighters... fighters .. fighters if your not eating here you don't care about muscle gains food is clean n healthy.... weather u trying to gain weight or lose weight you don't have to hire some expensive dietitian just eat here no cap ...and the food is bomb ??“

“(Translated by Google) Too delicious, ????the owner is very attentive and the food is the best, I loved the sushi and the tacos and the burritos, everything is worth what it costs ❤️❤️❤️❤️ you won't regret it(Original)Demasiado delicioso, ????el dueño es muy atento y la comida es la mejor, me encanto el sushi y los tacos y los burritos todo vale lo que cuesta ❤️❤️❤️❤️ no se van arrepentir“

“Just tried this for the first time, and will definitely be returning! The food was tasty, the price was fair, and equally important to me, the people working there were kind. Good customer service, and patient in explaining to me the various options (as the menu was in Spanish). Feeling very satisfied with the meal, and am looking forward to trying some of their other offerings soon.“

“This is one of the best places in town. There is no easier better food than the güero Truck Is delicious and clean. You can also order ahead of time so you have to do is go and pick it up if you want it to eat it at home work or even take it to the beach that plays rocks“

“Food is amazing! But it wasn't just the food that left a lasting impression. The service at tacos el vali was top-notch. The staff were not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly efficient. They made sure I had everything I needed and were more than happy to answer any questions I had about the menu. I would highly recommend this place!“

“(Translated by Google) Crepes truck run by French people. Great location on weekends. Excellent pancakes. I highly recommend! (Original) Camion de crêpes tenu par des français. Super emplacement le we. Excellentes crêpes. Je recommande chaudement !“

“I ordered a Torta with half Asada, and half Al Pastor. The Torta was fantastic I ate the whole thing. The service was great and I would highly doubt this place has anything to complain about. 2 tables with chairs, and additional chairs to sit in while waiting. It is outside, onthe side walk and it narrows there for walkers, but other than that there's no surprises. Perfect for to go orders.“

“I live 30 minutes away but this is the only spot that I don't mind driving down to the valley for!!!. Each time it's as fresh and bomb as the first time I came. 5 stars for the quality and taste of the food and the kind Empolyees at the falafel truck !!!!!“

“Vivi catered our wedding party and did a phenomenal job. She suggested the chicken and mushrooms so we went with that and the salmon. Both were delicious as well as the salad, rice and salsa. All of our guests kept telling us that they loved the food. The setup was nice as well. She printed out a beautiful, personalized menu with both me and my husband’s name. She was also kind enough to box up any leftovers. Would definitely have her cater another one of my events and I’m sure many of my guests will be doing so in the future.“

“I was biking down Venice Boulevard when I came across this lively food truck and had to stop. Loved the street food, homely ambience that this truck has that is so often missing in the states! The tortas were delicious and I absolutely loved the authentic hot chocolate con concha! The hot cocoa really tasted just like the hot chocolate I had had in Mexico.“

“1) Thought "I haven't eaten. I should eat." 2) Turned my head, happened to see this truck parked across the street.3) Walked over, ordered my first ever Shrimp cocktail.4) Had one of my best LA food truck experiences, great food, good people, generous portion - highly recommended!“

“One of the real good experiences that I had with taco trucks is this one, their food is tasty and flavorful and another good thing is ,they accept Zell as well so it is not cash only like many other places, I tried their mulitas which was amazing The guy and the lady who took my order very polite as well!“

“What can I say about FTALA that hasn't already been said? Finding a food truck company can be such a hassle, but working with Erika was smooth. I was a bit concerned with the truck I choose regarding the size of the dumplings, but Erika explained thoroughly how she herself has had them. ---it was a success, and the guests could not have been happier! All I heard about after the event was the dumplings. I can't wait to explore more truck options with FTALA for our school events.“

“SOLID 4 star, very very good food. I was worried with the proximity to LAX that this taco truck would be another tourist trap. I was very wrong. The quesatacos and Elote was phenomenal, and the salsas available were also outstanding. Not really anywhere to eat there other than a small standing bar so plan to get it to go, and I felt the price was a little expensive for Elote ($8) but aside from those things this place is amazing. Definitely check it out! Warning that it’s cash only or Zelle, but no card purchases.“

“Great little gem! Super nice and friendly ladies working there. They make the tortillas fresh and you can taste the difference. I got a few carne asada tacos and they were delicious! Good price and convenient location. I'll be back for more!“

“Delicious food (i had burrito Asada), clean and great staff… they were very fast and proactive.. as i was taking and putting in the little container unfortunately my coke dropped and spill everything and right away they gave me another coke and i was willing to pay and they said that it was okay i could have a new one for free… i can only say its definitely worth stopping by and checking them out. 10/10“

“BY FAR THE BEST TACO TRUCK I'VE EVER HAD!! The Mulitas are my absolute favorite! The service there is amazing! Everyone is kind and they get your food out almost instantly! Everything has always been very fresh! I love that it's in the UCLA area! Very convenient!“

“Food was delicious and quick, and the staff was friendly! I had the taco platter and a horchata. The tacos were so delicious and came with rice and beans. Horchata was really tasty too. It was $19 all together, but was a lot of food. I'll definitely stop here again!“

“The menu usually rotates and have things for special occasions such as lent. However, they have items that are always on the menu such as tacos, burritos (lunch and breakfast). The item that is the favorite on the menu are the Gorditas, filled with the protein of your choice. My favorite is the Gordita de asada con queso. The salsa they have is a bit on the spicy side for some people but I don't think it's hot.“
