“The restaurant has a really fun vibe, we enjoyed the tacos, drinks and chips and salsa. Service was exceptional. The creamy tomato spaghetti in the kids menu was a surprising option considering it’s a Mexican place but it was really comforting and we enjoyed it as well.

The only disappointing part was Flan which was hard and overcooked and the prices being on the higher side for what we got. But it’s a fun place and we’ll be back for the food we enjoyed!“

“This food truck is worth a stop if you're wanting delicious tacos, tortas, and burritos. I have not been disappointed. They offer a variety of drinks including a strawberry horchata. I appreciate the fast and friendly service and delicious Mexican food. Atmosphere rating technically doesn't apply.
They generally park in a shaded area, so you can wait for your food in the shade.“

“Living just two blocks away, I made it a weekly ritual to dine here, and it remains my absolute favorite spot for street tacos. While I miss the salsa bar, a casualty of the pandemic, it was heartening to find the tacos tasting just as delicious as they did six years ago during my recent work trip. It's reassuring to see that this gem is still thriving.“

“Place was not that busy on a Memorial Day Monday, so I was able to order my food right away and the food was not that expensive. Worker who took my order was very nice. Food came out quick. Got a Carne Asada taco that was delicious. Didn’t even take a picture because it jumped in my belly. Burrito was decent, good flavor but I wish they put more meat in it. It was packed, but I found myself trying to conserve the meat to make it last for other bites. Salsa bar was cool with the huge selection to choose from. Other than that, I would come back and definitely order more tacos.“

“This place was the real deal! My coworker asked if I wanted some food, I said yes because you can not pass up on food. He mentioned this place has good Mexican food and told me to check out the menu before he processes the order. At the moment I was not too hungry and just went with tacos, carne asada, carnitas and pollo. My coworker went to pick it up, and I started to get hungrier. Finally he arrived back at work with our goods. The tacos was authentic, packed with meat and one of the best tacos I have had. The sad part is, I wished I ordered more for myself because it was so damn good and it barely filled me up. I highly recommend this place to all taco enthusiasts, for a quick bite or if you are looking for a late night spot that serves great food. I definitely will be back to tryout their other delicious options they have to offer!“

The food was fresh, hot and good portions for their prices is like paying a little for a lot more than what money is supposed to get you especially in ssf Bay Area okay. Lol.“

“In The Bay, regardless of what type of cuisine, we have SO MANY options! I've probably patronized over 25 pupusarias in the last 10 years, but this joint is hands-down the absolute BEST! The pork and cheese pupusas were absolutely PERFECT! Fresh ingredients, cooked evenly where the filling was moist with bustling flavors and the outside was nice and crispy. Also ordered the enchiladas verde which, too, was spot-on.
Treat yourselves to a delicious meal and support this fine establishment. And oh, the service was polished, professional, yet evoked a very welcome-to-our-home vibe! ❤️“

“The pink pancakes, huevos rancheros and chiliques were outstanding. Loved the food. The place is in an odd location: industrial fruit packing district in a weird parking lot. We didn’t think we were at the right place because of all the fork lifts. Server was lovely. It’s not the best atmosphere for breakfast but the food was good.“
