Also the portions were pretty big. Overall, very delicious and for a family of 7 we spent about $120. Downside: 1) Location: While we were eating, due to being at a busy intersection, there were lots of cars honking at each other and speeding. There was also an unhoused individual that came up to us while we were eating but the food truck is not responsible for people walking around in a public place. I say the food is worth overlooking the downside. Really delicious food and good customer service.

The place is well lighted with lots of tables for dining on the spot. I think a manager or owner? was outside talking sports with one of the customers. He asked the cook about our order as we were waiting to make sure it was coming and updated us on the progress of it. He also asked them to add extra salsas in our bag that I wanted. I did also order a Taco de Tripas extra crispy. I'm eating everything right now as I type. It's so delicious you guys come try it out. Shout out to the boss making sure our food was coming- I respect great customer service I'm coming back. 100% coming back. Pictures included but I already scarfed down my taco

*****BE AWARE*****CHECK your receipt******…read more Everyone needs to beware of what they charge you before you tap or swipe your card. The first time I came, I ordered two tacos one Asada and one chicken he wrote it down on the paper tab he has. Turns the square screen for me to tap as I was tapping I notice the screen said $12. I told him "hey, I ordered 2 tacos, why is the total $12?" (Their tacos are $4dollars each. It should've been $8.) He told me, "it's because I ordered shrimp tacos, shrimp taco tacos are $6 each." I was so confused because I told him chicken and Asada and he wrote it down. Since I paid it already, I was like whatever it's fine. Today came over there and ordered 4 tacos, he told me 4 tacos right and I said, "yes" then he said OK $16. This time he had the square app on his phone it was tilted to where he didn't want me seeing how much it was. I wouldn't tap it because I couldn't see the total. Once I was able to see the total I noticed the total was $18. I asked him shouldn't it be $16 the tacos are $4 dollars each. He goes on to say it's tax and there's a $2 tax. Mind you I've been coming here for a while with another guy taking my order and they never charge the tax. They tell you how much it is and you pay it. If there was tax, why would you tell me the total was $16?! Why didn't you say $18?!! I was like OK whatever paid for it asked him for a receipt. I got a weird vibe. Went to my car was thinking I wanted to cancel the order and just get my money back. He was already making my order. So I didn't. I got my tacos, took a I look at them. The tortilla was ripped on the edges. So I just grabbed my order, put it on the table because who knows he could've done some stuff to my tacos. He's already dishonest and got annoyed when I was questioning about the price Sad because the tacos taste really good but the dishonesty of that one worker makes me not one to come back. So I want everyone to be aware to look at the prices on their menu and make sure when you're ready to tap and pay it's the correct total. They will scam you!!

Honestly idk how I haven't been to this place sooner! I came by on a Friday night after work since…read moreI was craving tacos (midnight) and if you're familiar with story road, you know it's not hard to find a taco truck that's open at that time. I pulled in since I saw that they were still open & placed an order for 3 pastor tacos with handmade tortillas & an asada mulita. They also have a salsa bar in the restaurant- I waited for a bit before getting my food. LIIIIINDDAAAA let me tell you, when I got my food and bit into it - you know it's amazing that you don't even need any salsa for the tacos. Flavor was AMAZING - like cooked & seasoned to perfection. I thought I had tasted really good pastor before, but this place proved me wrong . It was so good that I finally realized what the term "better than --x" meant because this place serves it! The mulita was also delicious - my only gripe is that I didn't find this place sooner. Definitely coming back & spreading the good word!

I came at a pretty busy time so it wasn't at the tail end or start of service. - pastor tacos never came with any pineapple. - stingy af with the onion and cilantro The 2 redeeming qualities are the handmade tortillas (although 1 of mine was a little burnt) and salsa bar. I wouldn't come again, which sucks because I love a handmade tortilla.

Tacos La Chilanguita VIP is a taco truck located on N Capitol Avenue just shy of the Capitol Square…read moreShopping Center. They sell authetic Mexican food--nacho plates, alambres, and quesadillas, to name a few. I've been here before plenty of times, but I decided to write up on it in passing. On separate days, I got myself 3 Carne Asada tacos ($2.50 each, $7.50 total) and 3 Quesabirria tacos ($3.66 each, $11 total). On average, the Carne Asada tacos took me 4 minutes, and the Quesabirria tacos took me 10 minutes. Let's start with the Carne Asada tacos. Honest to God, these tacos had me dancing in the driver's seat! I parked by the shopping center, hands and stomach ready. The pleasant smell of seasoned meat hits you immediately. Removing the foil from the plate, I see in front of me three delicious tacos with asada, chopped onions, and cilantros, alongside a couple of radishes, pickled red onions, lime slices, salsa verde, and salsa roja. It would be remiss of me to not tell you how they taste just as good as they look. Tender meat and flavorful ingredients make for a great night, and the salsa are a nice complement if you can handle the heat. Until my most recent visit, I was not aware they had sold quesabirria tacos. I don't think I have to re-examine why these are so ubiquitous with the food trends of late; you should already know how amazing they are! The quesabirria tacos here are no different from the ones that I enjoy--they are cheesy, they are meaty , and with the consomé side, they are messy. I must've spent a bit longer than usual finding a parking slot because the heat did end up sogging the tacos so they weren't crunchy, but they're still fresh and hot to the fingers. A must-get! The private parking lot in this area is limited, though if you come here on the weekday nights like I did, you'll not only find parking, but you'll also be near or at the front of the line. Super friendly customer service. Cash only. COVID regulations have been met. They accept takeout if you call ahead of time. Be prepared to wait longer than usual, as the food takes time to prepare and there are not any seats available. When looking for places on Yelp to eat at, I often go for ones that seem to quickly catch my eye, not necessarily because they are well-known with the people, but because they have not been well-known. We have so many eateries in the South Bay that some may get lost in the sea of fine establishments, and I think the Alum Rock area is notorious for having some hidden gems that mainly the locals know about and no one else. Tacos La Chilanguita VIP is a shining example of a place that makes good food and deserves a bit more attention, in my opinion. I've only been here for their tacos, but there's no doubt in my mind any item you get here will stick out to you favorably.

This was our final destination and it was not only delicious, but the staff were very kind and swift in getting our orders in and food out. Be aware that this place is a cash only spot but they also take Venmo. My favorite meat was the brisket meat for it was well seasoned and the meat was succulent. The super crunchy tacos was amazing and I loved how the taco was crunchy and the melted cheese just held the meat onto the taco. It made eating it not as messy and each bite was heavenly. They have a sauce bar on the side and I love the assortment of sauces and toppings. The green sauce was personally my favorite. Overall, great experience and I can't wait to come back to check out their other items.

Horchata was to sweet for my liking but they did have many other drinks in the cooler :) I will be coming back to try more items !
