Finally found this truck after reading the great Yelp reviews. Super nice folks working here. I was excited to try a tlayuda for the first time since it's not something I've seen on menus before, and it was really tasty. My SO ordered the huarache plate and he gave it a thumbs up as well. I'm for sure coming back to try their sopes and mole as well. I'm on a quest.

Street taco fanatics rejoice! The wife and I ordered the chicken taco plate and churros. They were amazing! The chicken was cooked perfectly, so juicy and flavorful. They have regular and caramel filled churros and they were equally delicious. They were served warm and fresh. We will be going back weekly!

Nice people, fast service. Definitely five stars for the homemade tortilla chips! Perfect cooking, perfect amount of salt- yum. I usually only eat a couple of chips and throw them out trying to watch what I eat but not these!. When it comes to the super burrito its large, the tortilla's appreciatively super soft, however I find that you noticeably get more filling than meat. The filling however is super flavorful and moist. If you're more into the fillings than that meat protein you would probably give it five stars. However I love steak! Other than the first bite I had a hard time tasting the carne asada. I liked that it was slightly larger chunks of steak than some places, however I love the crispy char that many other places put on the steak. There's quite a bit of chunky raw onions in it which I don't mind but I think some people would have issue with. Good, convenient and filling but with so much competition out there I will probably keep looking for my perfect burrito.

We are fairly new to the area and decided to try this place based on the pride other reviewers said they seemed to have in their food and the fact that their tlayudas looked pretty legit. We had high expectations since we lived in the city of Oaxaca for a few years and developed a pretty high standard of Mexican food there. We had tried a few other local Mexican food places around this area and were pretty disappointed by the lack of flavor and generic quality of food. We decided to ignore the fact that there weren't many reviews yet on either Yelp or DoorDash. We ordered through DoorDash and we received the food quickly. It was the best we have had in this area, the flavors were on point. We ordered the Burrito Mojado with carnitas, super nachos with carne asada and a super burrito with carne asada and added jalapeños inside, and everything was awesome. We also tried a carnitas taco, which was okay, not my favorite, but decent, and a churro which was really good. I don't usually bother but I had to come on to review this place. I hope they keep up the good work because as of now they have good reason to take pride in their food. We will definitely stick to this place as our go-to for Mexican food in the area.

Just finished all of my food and rushed back to Yelp to write this review. I can't say enough good things about this place! Sorry, no pictures because everything looked too good for me to remember to take pics.I was craving tacos late last night and hopped on Yelp to find the best deal in my area for tomorrow. After looking at 5+ places, I came across Jayli's Cocina and noticed they had wet burritos and mole. I decided this was the one.Before I dive into what I got, I just want to say their burritos are FAT and their tacos have a good amount of meat. I got:1. Burrito Mojado (wet burrito) $10 - Comes with both red and green salsa. Green salsa was sourer than other places I've tried, but I loved it! Also came with some chips.2. Wet Mole Burrito $12 - MUST TRY! I've only tried mole one other time but the mole here was so good and the flavor was right up my alley. They do not skimp out on the sauce. Chicken was tender and not dry at all.3. Tacos $2 each (Tried pastor, lengua, chorizo, suadero) - $2 per taco was the cheapest I could find in my area. While other places seemed to skimp out on the meat in the tacos, this place did not esp for a $2 taco. Not saying they pile it on but I think it was a good amount.Extra point for Jayli's because they did not charge extra for lengua and suadero, which almost all other places do. Ranking the ones I tried (starting from best): chorizo (so flavorful), lengua, suadero, pastor. Pastor is usually my go to and it was good here. It's just that the others were even better. :) Also wanted to mention that I'm not crazy and did not get all this food for myself LOL. I shared everything with family so I got to try a bit of everything. Great price, great food, good portions!! I came on Labor day and they were open 10am - 6pm, so I think the current hours posted on Yelp are accurate. Or at least the closing time is. I ordered through Yelp (fulfilled by GrubHub) and everything went smoothly. Got there and my order was ready. The guy who handed me the order was really nice! Nothing bad to say at all about this place.

Nice little food truck. Ordered through Grubhub and the food was on time when I went to pick it up. Chicken tacos were bomb and the churros are pretty fire as well.

Best wet burritos in town ! They just need to add extra chips. But hands down best taco truck !!

Been wanting to try real mole, so I checked on Yelp around the area at Mexican eateries and found Jayli's Cocina. Went with the family. I ordered the black mole over chicken. The chicken was dry but the mole was really good. I liked the rich savory flavor with a hint of sweet. Looking forward to going again to try other items. Just wish there were places to park the car.

Nice to have another Mexican Food Truck in the area. Food was good. Mole was good. Will need to come back and try their other menu items. Street parking is not that convenient; we found a space a block away. It was a bit breezy and cool so we decided to take our food and eat it in the Hillsdale Mall Food Court. Owner was friendly and helpful in explaining the different menu items and how his mole and cheese are different from what you get elsewhere. It wasn't busy when we were there around 4:30 PM but I can't imagine how the Owner can handle a lunch or dinner crowd.
