2 Good Tacos Mexican •
420 W Las Tunas Dr, 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.

If my photos look half eaten, it's because I forgot to take pictures first“

“Had a carnitas plate. It was good. Could have used a little more meat. The Enchiladas plate my friend had was good. Service was fine

Parking: Parking on the street, good luck. They have a parking lot which I found out. Other vehicles are parked there so it can minimize spaces.“

“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.“

“Fish tacos are outstanding!!! You can’t beat their prices. I wish they would have a spicier salsa but it’s good enough. Parking can be tricky since they share the lot with a laundry mat. I’ve come here to eat while washing clothes ;o)
I will be coming here more often.“

“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!“
