I love this taco truck. I get the quesabirria tacos de res (beef). Everything is so flavorful and delicious. I can't get anything else like it in the area. I'm always craving it! So glad they brought quesabirria to san mateo. The workers are very nice too.

The goat birria tacos and consome were delicious. The staff was also very helpful as it was my first time there. Would definitely stop by again to try other menu items.

This is my favorite quesabirria taco truck. I've been coming here for years. It's a bit messy to eat, but worth it. Birria De Res are $5.50 each (as of Aug 2023) but large and filling. The beef (res) is flavorful and the cheese is a string of melted goodness after you bite into the crunchy side. Don't wait to eat it or it will get soggy! The tacos are also really good and less messy if you're not on the mood for quesabirria. A taco with a selection of the same meats is $3. They are parked across from McD's on El Camino (in front of Charles Schwab) every weekday until 5 pm, and then they move to North SM on Delaware for the dinner time crowd. Easy parking next to the truck in both locations. The young woman cashier is friendly and sweet.I go on the off hours and it's quick. There is definitely a crowd right at lunch. It seems like everyone is a regular. That's when I order my ice coffee from McD's across the way and come back to pick up.

Great quesa birria chivo and res. Takes credit card. Pleasant customer service. Does not come with consomme but is not needed, the goat and the beef were loaded with juice anyway. PS: they don't have cabeza anything even if it's painted on their truck

This Mexican burrito and taco truck is amazing. I've been coming to them for over 2 years and I'm super thankful and glad for a delicious meal every week or two. Their burrito de res is so flavorful, and huge!! I also love their tacos de res with quesabirria sauce. Definitely check them out. Their food and price is super good, especially for todays day and age. Currently their hours are 6-10pm Monday through Saturday. Enjoy!

Soooo good and such a gem!! Literally trying to get them for my wedding lol usually find them right infront of Starbucks/Safeway on Delaware and Peninsula in the evenings (minus Sundays). The truck is pretty easy to spot! Fast service considering that everything is made fresh for you. The birria tacos are delicious, meat is juicy and tender. Also love their Al pastor tacos!! Their red salsa is fire and my fiancé LOVES their consume! He's so excited to have it, that he usually burns his tongue every time we have Monchis it's THAT good and THAT fresh!! Super friendly staff.

They are actually open after the listed closing time but they move the truck and park near the Safeway at Delaware and Peninsula instead. They're usually there from like 6PM to 9PM I thinkThe menu only lists res, chivo, and pollo as options but they also do all the other regular taqueria meats as wellGreat food, the super burritos and super quesadillas are unbelievably gigantic 5/5

After 5PM they move the truck to the Safeway at Delaware and Peninsula and they stay open until around 9 or 10. Listed menu meat options are res, chivo, and pollo but they also do all of the standard taqueria meat choices as well Tasty quesabirrias + consome and absolutely insane portion sizes for their super burritos and quesadillas 5/5
