I enjoyed the catfish with red beans and rice, jalapeño hush puppies and my Glenlivet 12.
Everything was fresh, tasty and overall excellent.“

“I was told about this place by a buddy of mine from California. I am from California as well. I have never had a better burrito in my entire life. I love food. I love cooking food. This place has the juiciest, most flavorful steak on the planet. Take your tastebuds on a date and be sure to stop by for any one of their amazing menu items, you won't be sorry!“

“Best Mexican food I’ve ever had hands down! Great food great service! Never disappoints! Would recommend burrito express to anyone!“

“Ambakity serves some of the best food I’ve ever had! Their fish tacos are absolutely delicious, and both the burritos and nachos are equally incredible. Portions are generous, so you definitely get great value for your money. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for flavorful, satisfying food!“

“Came here for taco Tuesday ($1.50 tacos) and got 3 tacos for $5, hard to beat that deal in Washington especially when the tacos are so good. And I mean really good, extremely tender and flavorful. The salsas they put out are also phenomenal. I got the adobada and the tinga, I would recommend both.“

“I love going to joysticks! My husband is gluten free and loves the Mac and Cheese Bites! He loves having a safe place he can eat where he loves the food!“

“This is the best Mexican restaurant I have ever been to. Do not be deceived by the esthetic. Ignore the gas station - unless you need a restroom.

I eat a ton of Mexican food... look at my profile ... this place is special. Order everything.

The Mulitas were my favorite. They're just on the edge of spicy, packed with meat, and accompanied by cheese and guacamole. It's a sort of quesadilla meats torta. While not the prettiest thing to eat, I'd happily have one daily. 2 will fill you up all day.

I also really enjoyed the tacos. When you see them, they seem tiny ... but I have to say, I was never left hungry. The Taco Platter is more than filling and fairly priced.

When a 5-year-old finishes a taco truck burrito, you know you're in the right spot.

This is well prepared, beautifully seasoned passion driven food. It is clear from the food that they serve, that they love what they do and want you to as well.“

“We had an amazing experience today for our event. We had about 55 people and everyone loved the food. Excellent service, very prompt and the pizzas, salads and cookies were delicious! I will definitely hire them for future events, thank you!“

“I love the asada tacos!!! They make them just right. However the girl who takes orders isn't as friendly so I think they take a loss for that but that's just my opinion. I still go when I want tacos tho.. The cook never disappoints and the salsas are fire!!!... Give them a try just disregard the girls facial expression and or energy if that effects you. I took a friend there for lunch and I was so excited for her to experience what I did but I'm not sure if she will return due to the girls negative energy she was giving us.. Customer service is definitely important! People who like working with others...“

“amazing food. definitely will recommend to the next person.“

“La comida deliciosa! !!!!!“

“Old man in the yellow truck can throw down in the kitchen..
I will warn you however if you're expecting quick food you'll be there chillin for a few minutes while uncle is making your food up there.
The tacos where good but not very impressive.
I will however recomend the coconut lemonade“

“The food was good and the people were very nice. If I'm in the area I would definitely consider eating there again. Had the whole family there and ordered 6 different dishes. The only issue with the food was the pork carnitas was a little dry, but great flavor.“

“The food tastes delicious, but be prepared to eat any burrito without sour cream or avocado over a plate: they do not hang together enough for car eating. I got vegetarian so I didn't have any problems but the partner and kid both created showers of rice and beans all over the car.“

“I had to share… We had the pleasure of ordering food from Burger Planet food truck today at the Ballard FC game. A lady ahead of me was vegan and was trying to figure out what to eat. The staff was patient with here, even though it was a BURGER FOOD TRUCK, and even after she ordered and paid, they worked with her to get it right. They eventually credited her money and still gave her the food. Real classy thing to do. You didn’t have to but you went above and beyond. Nicely done!!“

“Currently sitting and eating at this quaint little restaurant and it’s amazing. The food was beyond good, I god an amazing mocktail like drink that was delicious, my food was prepared quickly and the recommendation of the server blew me away! Will definitely be back!“

“I ordered 2 tamales, one red one green, a mesquite, and chicken nachos. By far my favorite nachos, the chips are homemade and were fresh. The chicken had good flavor and seasonings. The tamales taste like the kind my Mom and Tias used to make and had good flavor. The mesquite was prepared very well, a good sized portion and again tasted authentic. I would recommend and can't wait to eat there again.“

“A late lunch of super tasty alambre while sitting on my tailgate at the Renton McClendon’s Hardware parking lot. Highly recommend!“

“Fresh fresh fresh! This is the best and most authentic Mexican food around! The birria is to die for. We love all the fresh vegetables. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful if you have any questions about the menu.“

“I truly love not only the charm of this little taco bus, with its cute little dining area and the great location but I also love the people who work this little joint. The sweet couple running this taco truck are wonderful people, so kind welcoming and friendly, very happy to share their culture and heritage through food with people of all walks of life! The food is absolutely delicious, and they truly care about their customers, even going above and beyond to give me a little surprise today, something I have asked about in the past but sadly is not in their regular menu. I challenge you to find a meal on this menu that isn't delectable! It cannot be done!“

“Amazing breakfast & lunch. Perfect hidden gem.“

“This is a gem of a Mexican restaurant with an expansive menu and fast service. The quality of the meats if above average. The available sauces are excellent. The portion size is large. Flavours are great. I would recommend this place for take out, as the dining room is spartan.“

“Delicious food. I got asada and Pollo tacos and they were bomb. The sautéed/cooked onion and chili was also a great addition.I went fairly late and can't really talk about the atmosphere since I got it To-go but it was quick and had seating for eating there or waiting. I'll be back“

“Your burrito will come with the hot sauce they have paired with it, always a great choice. I am sure you can ask for another flavor if you need. I like the cali-burrito best, but you find yours. first rate ingredients, well wrapped and served, hot fresh and tasty. not anywhere convenient, but worth the extra ten minute drive for sure if you are nearby“

“I literally look forward to every day because of this place and am heartbroken when they are closed. They have opened my eyes to so much delicious food. All of it is prepared safely and with love. I highly recommend coming here.“

“very tasty selection, can't go wrong with whatever you choose“

“los tacos estan ricos. La torta de carnitas muy deliciosa myy buen servicio.“

“Really yummy food. Good seating. Top notch food truck“

“I’ve lived down the street from this spot for 10 years. When they first popped up I was so excited! Their food is incredible. I have their number saved in my phone as well as their Pupusa menu. My favorite is the pork cheese and bean! The people who leave bad reviews is because they order at the truck. They’re always busy and usually a 15-25 minute wait. I always call ahead and pick em up right when I get there. They’re busy because their food is so good! I’ve recommended to so many people and show friends this spot who haven’t had Pupusas before! Their other food is bomb too!“

“It's a fantastic food truck. Really tasty Mexican fare, not like the fake Aztecas, Azul and other popular joints that have no flavor or spice. This has great flavor and enough spice if you want it. It's become a regular place for our family.“

“affordable food and it was do delicious.“
