50 Best Food Trucks near San Gabriel

“I stopped by this taco truck after my usual taco stand wasn’t open—and I’m glad I gave it a try. I ordered the buche, carnitas, pastor, and cabeza tacos. The carnitas and cabeza were the best—juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right.

I also had the carne asada fries, which were hearty and satisfying. The guacamole in the carne asada fries is seriously addictive, and their salsa, along with the pickled jalapeños and red onions, added a fresh, tangy kick.

At $2.50 per taco, the prices are reasonable for the quality. I’ll definitely be coming back.

“We are from out of state & have family in San Gabriel so whenever we are visiting we look up the Tacos Jalisco truck. We don't have many (if any) food trucks where we are from, and I have been to MX several times and had some real live tacos, and these guys are spot on. I highly recommend!“

“Great tacos. I had 9 total. Asada and al pastor we’re the best. I loved the chicken and lengua as well. Will definitely stop by again next time I’m in the area“

“It is SO good. The chicken cutlets taste like Taiwanese night market. The grapefruit yakult was delicious. The people running the truck are really nice. I highly suggest double checking on their Instagram before heading out to see them. Sometimes they have altered hours or are elsewhere doing a special event. Their Instagram is reliable for updated hours and specials. Card or Venmo accepted.“

“Great tacos, plenty of meat. Love the Carne Asada tacos for the kids, and mine are the tacos al Pastor. Great taste. I love the options for the Salsas, they have green salsa mild (for the kids) and a darker green that is more spicy. They also have other options if you are craving nachos or fries. If you are in the San Gabriel area, give it a try, you won't be disappointed. The Aguas frescas are also good. I love Jamaica, and my kids' favorite is the Horchata.“

“BEST BURRITO IVE EVER HAD! Wow. Seriously. It takes a lot for me to leave a review. But I'm sitting here eating this burrito and it is probably the best burrito I've ever had. Perfect size (long not overly thick like some places do where every bite is hard to take) taste is spot on. The a la cart options out front allow me to add my toppings to each bite as I want. And this yellow sauce is PERFECT HEAT and FLAVOR. A+ GUYS.“

“海鲜很新鲜，非常棒的用餐体验！“

“Amazing ♥️ handcrafted vendor the best food!“

“This amazing taco stand is set up in a parking lot with plenty of parking, making it super convenient. There are four organized stations: one for tacos, one for other items, plus a drink station and a salsa bar.

The meat was incredibly flavorful, and they serve it with onions, a grilled pepper, and a small potato. After trying several taco storefronts in the area, this stand easily tops the list.

A must-visit for taco lovers looking for great flavor. Four tacos was $11. No seating but you can sit in your car.“

“We ordered 4 Taiyakis for only $12. Then the owner was so sweet! She offered a 5th one for free. Got our fresh Taiyakis after pager rang quickly! All flavors were great: Red bean, apple, custard cream, mango, and chocolate filling within freshly baked crunchy shells. We almost wanted to order another round if we were not on the way of leaving Little Tokyo Market. Must try again next time!

Kid-friendliness: The fresh fish shaped Taiyaki tastes much better than the frozen one kids usually get in stores.“

“Muy buenos taco’s deliciosos“

“Really good. It’s a small place with a small menu, burritos, burgers, fries, not a whole lot more, but they do what they do really well. It’s a hole in the wall in the best sense: tasty, generous, satisfying, local, friendly, and not expensive. If you need a breakfast or lunch that’s fast and good, this is your ticket!“

“Buenísimos las mejores carnitas“

“The best food!! 100% recommended totally worth the wait in line! Food is amazing!!“

“pasamos de pasadita guiados por los reviews y nos sorprendió los mejores tacos de birria qué hemos comido. recomendamos al 100 por 100“

“This was the first time trying WezzArepas and it did not disappoint! The arepas were perfectly crisp and cheesy with a hint of sweet! The empanada was flavorful with a generous amount of chicken. Lastly, the Salchipapas could easily feed 2 people. It was generously topped with lots of flavorful ingredients. We will def be back!“

“Running into Majano’s Coffee at my son’s school event felt like a little gift from the universe. His lavender latte is hands-down the best I’ve had—smooth, fragrant, and calming in all the right ways.

I didn’t expect him to remember me (I’m usually the one dashing in between meetings), but he did. That small kindness made my day. Now that my mornings are freer, I look forward to making Majano’s a more regular stop after school drop-off.

Great coffee, kind energy, and a mobile setup that makes the ordinary feel special.“

“Esta muy buena la comida Recomendado al 💯👌🏽😋“

“I'll be honest the atmosphere is not good yet if you wish to taste an authentic Mexican dish ex taco, burrito etc with hand made tortillas and great quality of meats and vegetables this is the place to go. And moreover the prices are cheap. I'm definitely coming back.!😁“

“I love food, one of the best taco truck in the town. It's located in front of the beautiful Arcadia park with plenty of convenient parking spots, picnic tables and benches. So far we tried nacho, beef taco, fi sh taco, asada fries, quesadillas an3d horchata. They were all really good!
My only request is about the way it gets served. While the disposable styrofoam plates are so convenient, it melts! It got melted by the quesadilla and the fries.

Please please put a layer of foil before putting the hot food on the styrofoam plates. I would love to keep coming back if it's safer“

“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.“

“Progressive Japanese food that focuses on simplicity and freshness showcasing technique. They highlight their eel and we got the whole one to share. It can be a bit intimidating for people not familiar and a bit simple but the effort to prepare takes a lot. For the price, I wish it came with a side of rice or something to complement it. I really enjoyed the Tofu and Eggplant dish also. The Eggplant was super unique and cooked in a way I haven’t tried before and was very flavorful with a dark miso crust. The Corn and Sausage was unique too and presentation was pretty cool. I really enjoyed the Strawberry Shaved Ice for dessert. Great way to end!! Overall, the food is on the lighter side so if you’re looking for hearty or indulgent food this may not be the best pick. They serve smaller plates that are good to share between two people or a small group. Service was great though and super friendly.“

“Love all their Mexican Fusion drinks & especially the sugar free!!! Wide variety, there’s something for everyone ☕️ Plus everyone is very sweet♥️“

“Great restaurant! Our server Hector was fantastic; funny, personable and very attentive. The atmosphere and decor is great, festive yet laid back with a nice vibe. The food and presentation were amazing, as well as filling. We ate before going into Universal Studios and we were completely full the entire 5+ plus hours we were there. This restaurant is definitely worth a visit.“

“I'll drive over 30 minutes just to get Sumo TacosThis is a hidden gemthese high-quality ingredients, Their salsas, their beans, their prime meat; it's all tied together into a top-notch flavor experience.Not only is the food good but the services like is like family.sometimes they sell out and pack up early, so call ahead if you're coming from somewhere far off.That's just one of many ways we know sumo tacos are the spot.They deserve a Michelin star the lengths I've driven just to get food here“

“the people that work there are very polite and I love there sopes my favorite but in all honesty I give them 100%. ....thank you“

“Strawberries and banana Yummie“

“vengan a los ricos tacos les recomiendo mucho los de camarones estan muy ricos I los dan muy rapidos y calientes“

“Bardzo smaczne jedzenie. Na moją prośbę dostałem bardzo smaczną wersję z Chorizo i Wieprzowiną. Zdecydowanie polecam“

“The food was great!! Their ceviche is cooked with lemon, so it is tasty. Their empanadas are the size of a regular tortilla folded in half, so they are not small. Their large fish tacos are twice the size a regular taco - beware!!! Our order was to go and it was a pleasant surprise to see we weren't missing anything. Their salsas are very good too.

Parking: This is not s restaurant. It us a truck, so you need to drive around snd find parking, but it is worth it!“

“Sooo good!! I've been to the food truck multiple times by my house and the donuts are always fresh and delicious! They have a lot of toppings to choose from so there's something for everyone. I would highly recommend coming here if you have a sweet tooth. You won't be disappointed! The service is always good as well. They are always friendly, and fast!“

“The best food!! 100% recommended totally worth the wait in line! Food is amazing!!“

“Best churros I’ve ever had! Delicious 😋“

“Una buena tortuga con todo y aguacate!!! 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻🚶‍♀️Haaaaaa bailarr!!!“

“AMAZING!!!!!! Birria tacos, quesabirrias, you name it it's delicious 😋!!!!!! Great service. Family own and you see they care what they serve their guests. Will continue to come with my family 😃.“

“I saw a Groupon for Lobos Truck the other day and I had to buy it. It was $13 for 2 entrees and 2 drinks! What a steal! They stop by in front of my work building every now and then so it was pretty convenient for me to check them out.The Chinook: 1/3 lb. American-Kobe beef burger with garlic aioli, cheddar, lettuce, and tomato on a fresh Brioche bun. The burger was nothing special - just average. It was cooked medium rare as requested and it was well seasoned.OG Wachos: With everything. What are Wachos you ask? Waffle Fries + Nacho Toppings = Wachos. Came with Avocado, Cheese, Onions, and much more. It was amazing. The waffle fries were crisp and flavorful and it went well with all the toppings. I wish there was some heat to it though!“

“Happy“

“Aguachile is my favorite😋😀👌Cash only!“

“Food always hits here, especially the Al Pastor tacos. Everything is freshly made there with amazing flavor. They have a table with enough condiments to add to the food you get. One time they got my order wrong and gave me 2 asada tacos instead of 2 Al Pastor tacos, they gladly fixed the issue and gave me the 2 Al Pastor tacos that I ordered and I kept the other 2 they gave me at first. I have lived in whittier my whole life and I can say that the food from this food truck is the best from any other food truck I've had.“

“We were there Saturday night for my friend's bday. It was during dinner rush hour,the place was very busy so we didn't mind waiting a bit.We sat at the newly built bar,food was excellent! If you want awesome authentic flavors,they can deliver for sure! Very nice atmosphere,the place was inviting, spotless clean and we had an awesome time. If you need a break from boring food,go there for a fiesta of flavors and a nice cold cerveza!“

“a bit pricey (at least here in downey) but the food is worth it!!“

“Good place for tacos ?, especially love their lengua tacos--the meat is a big slice of tongue instead of diced up. This shop is open late so good for folks that have late meals. They are also located next to a parking lot so no problem finding parking. Would definitely visit again and recommend to others.“

“Great flautas (or taquitos) with so much salsa on them. So good. Super cool area for dinner. They have outdoor seating with pick style benches. They have a giant Connect 4 game too.

This place has great vibes.

Also there's a liquor store next door so I'm not saying BYOB.. but..“

“I was at a private party in Seal Beach not to long ago, and these guys hauled up / down their gear and they NAILED IT....!!! So good... the selection of salsa's, meats and veggies were EXCELLENT....!!!! Would Def consider them for any future get togethers.“

“Tacos La Guera is a fantastic taco truck that you absolutely need to try! The moment I approached, the delicious aromas promised a great meal, and they did not disappoint.

The menu features a great selection of tacos, and I couldn’t resist trying a few different kinds. The carne asada was incredibly tender and flavorful, while the al pastor had the perfect balance of sweetness and spice. Each taco was topped with fresh ingredients, and the homemade salsas were a delightful addition!

The service was quick and friendly, which is always appreciated when you're on the go. The vibe is casual and inviting, making it a great stop for a satisfying meal.

If you’re in the area and craving authentic tacos from a food truck, Tacos La Guera is the place to be. I can't wait to come back for more!“

“excellent food with homemade pressed tortillas“

“This place is great and something I've been wanting to try for awhile and glad I didn't finally.

I had their barbacoa tacos guisados which was very tender and with cheese added. Their salsa bar added a lot to flavor to it and the barbacoa was very tender. Their chikali taco comes with beans and guacamole and I got it with carne asada. The asada was charred very well and seasoned very well also. The beans went well with it and were not soggy. The staff was very nice and helpful in describing what was available, popular, recommended and what they thought it should have.

There's some seating next to their shop which is convenient. Their agua frescas was very good also according to my friend. It was his favorite place so far when I took him the multiple taco joints in east LA.

I'd come back here to try their breakfast/chorizo items“

“Good fish taco truck. They also have other seafood options like ceviche and tostadas. Can definitely recommend the fish tacos and shrimp empanadas.

Service was good. Orders can take a while so be patient. There's street parking up and down the block.“
