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.

“AMAZING. Literally some of the best tacos ever. I genuinely don’t understand the bad reviews. I recently moved farther away and I STILL come back every Tuesday for Taco Tuesday. That should tell you everything.

The prices are so cheap, especially on Tuesdays, and the portions are HUGE. They give you so much meat that the tacos need two tortillas just to survive. And they’re consistently delicious every single time.

BUT THE SAUCE??? OMG. I always say sauce is EVERYTHING, and their sauce is actually heaven. I always get the green sauce with guac and it is SO. FREAKING. GOOD. I could probably drink the green sauce by itself. Whoever makes that sauce deserves a raise, a vacation, and my eternal gratitude.

On top of that, the service is always great. I’ve been coming here for over a year now and they’ve consistently been good. Even after moving away, Taco Tuesday keeps bringing me back.“

“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.“

“This was my first time trying Taiwanese street food. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. I got their grape yogurt drink, sausage hug sausage, and scallion pancake chicken cutlet to try. The grape yogurt drink was creamy, yogurty, and tart with real, refreshing, fruity grape flaves and seeds. The sausage hug sausage had a firm, bouncy, sweet, fatty, thick sausage, pungent raw garlic, and crunchy sweet pickled cucumbers all on a chewy sticky rice bed. The scallion pancake chicken cutlet had a super flakey crispity crunchity chewy wrap, a brushing of sweet sticky hoisin sauce, some shredded cabbage, and a thin crispity crunchy bubbly lightly savory chicken cutlet. Overall this place is pretty good.

Yogurt drink $6.75
Sausage hug sausgae $12
Scallion pancake chicken cutlet $11“

“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“

“Got two asada, one chorizo, one pastor, and one tripa tacos. Asada was pretty good, so was the chorizo. I like my pastor a little saltier, but the pastor here was more on the sweeter side. The tripa had a slight bitter aftertaste, wouldn't really recommend if you aren't used to the taste. Overall it's alright for a good price and good amount of meat!“

“海鲜很新鲜，非常棒的用餐体验！“

“Buenísimos las mejores carnitas“

“Amazing ♥️ handcrafted vendor the best food!“

“Absolutely delicious, cooked fresh and everything you want in a snack. There’s lots of savory and sweet options- I went with a ham and cheese one and a mixed berry cream cheese one. It looks like they have new and limited flavor options rotated out regularly. Paying is cash or Venmo only, but was very inexpensive. It took about 10 mins, and there’s some picnic tables nearby with cute little birds to keep you company while you wait.

It was cooked perfectly, melty and piping hot on the inside, and crispy on the outside, with a mildly sweet and crispy shell. Absolute perfection! A great way to grab a quick snack and take a short break while shopping. I definitely will be back.“

“Muy buenos taco’s deliciosos“

“We stopped by while visiting LA, in search of good local tacos and Taco La 26 did not disappoint!!! The tortillas were fresh, the salsa was delicious & the al pastor was my favorite! I love that they have free roasted potato’s and onions, so no matter what you get a filling meal.

You order at the food station then pay at the counter with the square machines. No where to sit but honestly they’ll be gone before you could sit down.

It is a block from skid row, & as tourist we weren’t familiar - but like anywhere else, just pay attention to your surroundings. The location is gated and there’s plenty of parking.

Open late and so delicious! 10/10 recommend & would DEFINITELY eat here again.“

“Came in hoping for brunch after a hardcore hiking and learned that breakfast wraps up at 11:45am — worth knowing. No regrets though, because I got the smash burger combo instead and it was excellent. Everything tasted freshly made, the drink came free, and the service was genuinely lovely. Only one thing bothers me was the heat… I’ll be back, and next time I’ll turn up before 11:45am.“

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

“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.!😁“

“The food is authentic and so delicious 😋“

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

“Super glad I found a new exciting spot with GREAT coffee. My tastebuds were very happy with my iced sugarfree vanilla latte and banana cold foam! The coffee was bold and smooth and they did not over power the coffee with sugar! The staff was so friendly and sweet! I’ll be back again and again 🤍🤍🤍“

“Food was delicious and service was fast. They do also offer non spicy/mild for children. A variety of delicious options to choose from. Bulgogi was seasoned very well and nothing was dry. Overall 10/10. Very much looking forward to eating here again.

Kid-friendliness: Offer non spice options as well“

“The food was amazing. We ordered about 14 tacos and two Mexican coke for $35.“

“Mas Cafecito has delicious unique coffee flavored drinks. The only thing I was surprised about is that they don't sell regular unsweetened black coffee! How does a coffee place not sell regular black coffee?“

“Been meaning to hit this place, but always pass them up. Glad I stopped by, they got some good eats here. Tried the Vamipro with bistec and potato. Nice and crispy hand made tortilla. Potatos were healthy cut pieces and soft. Also had the Guisado sampler and man they are not shy with the servings. I definitely recommend the sampler plate if you are wanting to try the different options of guisados. For this location early is better as they do sell out of items on the early side. They also have restaurant where you can get there goods as well.“

“Best Tacos I have ever had. No joke. Girlfriend & I stayed in Pasadena for a vacation a few weeks back, ended up getting these 4 nights in a row. I’m not even lying when I tell you this little Taco Truck was potentially the highlight of my entire vacation. God I wish I could have some more.“

“Food is amazing local Mexican food, tacos, quesadillas, tortas and flautas.. salsa is always fresh sometimes there's a wait but so worth it!!! Quesadilla Frita is the best!!! Eat at car or if an open small table not in best of neighborhood but Hollenbeck police station across from you.“

“Honestly the best food truck ever! The service was quick and friendly and the food was a bomb!!! i tried their trendy deep friend quesadillas and they were delicious!!! we ordered a Pastor burrito (huge), the deep fried quesadilla, a sope, a huarache and two large Jamaicas for only 46usd. Honestly very affordable prices! we will def. be back 🤩🤩🤤🤤🤤“

“This is one of the most unique and best mariscos spots you’ll find in the U.S. We had the strawberry aguachile it was spicy, incredibly delicious, and paired with some of the freshest shrimp I’ve ever had. The chef runs a one man operation and makes everything from scratch. He’s a creative genius and a very kind person. I’ll definitely be back.“

“the prices aren't are not that expensive they got some good food here and good staff“

“Strawberries and banana Yummie“

“海鲜很新鲜，非常棒的用餐体验！“

“Got 2 tacos dorados de Camaron, tacos a Diabla and the ceviche. Everything was great, flavorful and fresh. The tacos a diabla was the best entree that I had. And compared to other mariscos restaurants, this is the best tacos dorados that I’ve had“

“The Lobster Roll is excellent. The bun is deep-fried, which gives it a great rich flavor and crispy texture, pairing perfectly with the fresh, generous lobster meat. Another standout is the Tofu Pudding—it has a very unique, rich aroma and is incredibly smooth.

The ingredients are fresh, the service is genuinely friendly, and the place is clean. Great quality for the price. I'll definitely be back!“

“Las mejores cemitas y un buen servicio“

“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 😃.“

“Dude, I’m really impressed with this little spot. The food is flavorful, fresh, and not greasy, and the gentlemen working here are kind Sinaloenses who are easy to talk to. Authentic Mexican food without the fluff. The tacos are fairly priced and GOOD, the gringa is insane if that’s your thing.

If you’re looking for something a bit lighter, I highly recommend the bowl. The flavors are spot on, the portions are generous (easily enough for two meals), and it’s hearty without being heavy.

This is my new spot. Maybe I’m a little biased since my family is also from Mazatlán, but trust me, this place is authentic and you feel good spending your money here.“

“su atención a clientes y su buen sazón“

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

“Pound for pound best shrimp tacos in LA and beyond.“

“absolutely great service always have Smiles on their faces the food is fantastic portions are very generous definitely my go-to spot after work highly recommended“

“Very comfortable place to be in. Everyone was relaxed and you could hear the staff in the kitchen communicating getting the orders out. They have good lighting, a larger modern menu board with a great selection. They had light hearted music playing and a big tv to watch the Dodger games. I was surprised to see Birria on the menu so had to get that for sure! I think I will may this my goto spot a couple days a week so I can eat better for less and no dishes to wash.“

“The Tacos de birria where very delicious it’s a must to go and try them out I really recommend this place“

“los mejores ice cream y paletas! 🍨🍦“

“los mejores tacos .. y ahora las mejores galletas“

“I've been coming to this location for the past 6 years. Excellent customer service. Super nice and there Aguas Frescas are AMAZING!! Quesadillas are huge! Carne Asada is so flavorful! Delicious!! Definitely have to try them if you are in LA.“

“Good service and courteous. Reasonable prices“

“I was lucky enough to go when they had elotes. Always love getting Adrian's tacos. Also they are always very friendly. Definitely recommend.“

“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..“

“This area of highland Park which is to say the stretch of North Figueroa Street from avenue 26 all the way to eagle Rock Boulevard is a little bit of a mariscos desert, other than the shrimp tacos at La Estrella. (El pescador is overrated) So it was very exciting to find out about this truck. Excellent service -- outstanding campechana, savory in a peppery way that was welcome. Shrimp tacos were outstanding . Very convenient and even at lunch time there wasn't a long wait“
