My go-to taco truck in the area. It’s in a small lot but there’s free and metered parking on the street. Fast, friendly service. Street tacos are small but filling. Cash only. Meat is well cooked and the ingredients are fresh. Highly recommend. Enjoy.

Carnitas usually on point the asada is hit or miss at times
Parking can be a pain also be on the look out for the speedsters

Very solid/good taco. Not the best I’ve had but it’s up there 4.5/5 stars. Cheap price and good quality. Would come here any day of the week as a late night option

I have been eating at this taco truck for almost 20 years. Best street tacos in California hands down. I also live in the high desert and make the trip at least once a month.

The original taco truck in LA before the boom. Been coming here for about 15 years … maybe it’s nostalgia but it’s the best in all of LA in my mind- at least the carnitas and pastor. The asada isn’t anything special but people I know love the Lengua too

Good flavor. Fast service. Very small street tacos..two bites and it's gone. I am not exaggerating about that two bites thing. So if you are down for a $1.25 a bite then this $2.50 a taco is for you. I left hungry and went to Tops for a burger and the best fries around.

The tacos were bomb, I got 5 but could've eaten more . They don't feel heavy like other tacos spots there not greasy so that's good for the stomach. I got asada, chicharon and carnitas I love them.

Hi, my name is Enrique. I went to California tacos and Pasadena. My girlfriend wants some nachos when I went there ask for extra cheese. Extra meat because they always greedy with the meat and my bill was 17.75 cents I looked at the price. The nachos is $13 and I asked him why is 17.75 And tell me because the extra cheese and the extra meat I will not go there anymore

Late night tacos just really hit the spot. One of the best taco trucks in the area, cash only but it is super value. The two bite tacos nourish the soul. 6 types of meat and only $2.75 a taco. Service is super quick and they taste amazing. Always a line up because people know that this is the place for taco truck tacos.
