The Latin Effect food truck catering my October wedding! We chose to have a chips and salsa & guacamole bar and Maduros con crema for appetizers and street tacos and Honduran enchiladas as entrees. The truck is adorable, the food was fantastic and Alberto was so kind an attentive to our guests and family! I would highly recommend The Latin Effect for a delicious and quirky lunch out or any of your catering needs!

They have tacos made with homemade pico de gallo & guac sauce wirh choice of Carne Asada, marinated chicken, or carnitas. I got 3 tacos & tried one of each. They were amazing! I can't wait to catch them at one of their next scheduled locations.
