Barcelona On The Go Foodtruck came to our work plaza today and they offered a wide-array of delicious lunch meals from quesadillas, to sandwiches, to burgers, salads, a little something for everyone. I ordered the chicken quesadilla which came with sour cream, salsa, guacamole, and the quesadilla was cut in four ways, came with chicken and 2 types of cheese melted. They gave me pita chips but I wanted the side salad so they was complimentary for me. Great portion, kind service and good for lunch!
It's such a shame when food trucks price gouge without even making up for the price, then again, I guess that's what "price gouging" means. Barcelona OnTheGo was parked at the Anaheim Convention Center over the weekend during Star Wars Celebration. A few years ago, I enjoyed a breakfast burrito from this truck for under $10 that not only satisfied my appetite, but my taste buds too. But now, they charge $13.50 for a tiny burrito that is flavorless, barely full, and they don't even give out the right orders. We ordered a bacon breakfast burrito and given a chorizo burrito. It's not something you can tell until you actually open or bite into it because nothing is marked on the foil wrapping. One scrambled egg, a miniscule amount of flavorless, cheap, fatty chorizo, soggy fries, a dry tortilla, and canned salsa. No self respecting chef would serve this and it's clear the owner and chef of this truck has lost respect for himself and food.
I ordered this at the Honda Center and WOW it was delicious. The ingredients were fresh, the food was the perfect portion to fill me up, and it's probably my favorite meal I've had there. The crispy tortilla strips on top really added a fun crunch rather than typical croutons. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the price. The salad below was $15 and my bottled water was $5. It was a lot of money for a smaller street food portion and if I hadn't been limited in options at the Honda Center I probably would have eaten elsewhere.
Very delicious food! Had this at the FivePoint Ampitheater and was so glad there was this offering because I wanted some type of salad with meat. They can sub the fries with greens. Worth it! Filling meal but not to the point where it was too much. Chimichurri sauce was great and the sirloin was perfectly cooked to my requested med-rare. Great service too! Price was also very great considering it's from a food truck AND it's good steak. If I see this truck again, I'll definitely be heading this way.
The best food truck in town. The service is great the food is great. What more can you ask for always get the Mediterranean salad is supposed to come with french fries but I do the salad with the beef on top rare prices are decent very clean food!
First time ordering from the food trucks at the Ducks game. I ordered the paella and it was decent. It had shrimp and chicken and I appreciated that the shrimp didn't taste like rubber. The prices are a little outrageous. My meal was $19 plus tax. You would think that their overhead is lower since they're not paying certain bills, but who knows what they pay to sell at the games. Either way, I review based on quality, quantity, service, and creativity. They were very friendly. I would say it's worth trying.
The cooks were Ricardo and lizzet and the guys who greeted us was Alex... they won my friend and I at the Dave Mathews show over all of the other food truck that were here. So try them when you see them!!
Barcelona OntheGo catered lunch at my company and were serving chicken paella. The small lunch box consisted of some leafy greens with a vinaigrette and chicken paella. The Spanish rice was flavorful with a hint of saffron and aromatic spices. The chicken pieces incorporated in the dish were tender and tasted great. Overall I really enjoyed the paella, however I wish the portion was double the size. The size was more of a snack for me than lunch and didn't fill me up. I'm glad to see that they offered a paella without pork as their normal food truck menu incorporates chorizo in the paella. I would definitely want to visit this food truck and try some of their other dishes.
Signature dish, steak and fries with chimichuri is delicious and surprisingly affordable! 15.00. Fresh cut thin fries topped with perfect medium sliced steak and tasty sauce. Fantastic! Nice people too. Whoever hired them to park near the Marriott on Bayview cr.... thank you! You have good taste in food trucks!
Decided to try this food truck & I do need to give them props. I arrived the moment they were closing and I felt so bad but very greatful they still took the order. The food was good. The lemonade did need a bit more sugar for my taste but it wasn't bad. I will be ordering from here (ON TIME) next time lol

First time trying this spot and the service was very quick, I received my food in less than 5 minutes. Tried the chimichurri steak & fries, they asked how I'd like the steak cooked and I said medium rare. The steak came out more medium well but overall taste was good. I do wish the meal came with a salad or veggies though to lighten it because it is a lot of fries. read more

Today is their first time at 19 Corp Plaza in Newport Beach. Their signature dish, Steak Chimichurri taste good. Fries were done perfectly. They asked how I wanted my steak. I said medium rare and I got medium done. Their Chimichurri sauce taste good but it's machine blended. This messes up the texture abit but the flavor is there. I can imagine how better this dish would be with hand chopped Chimichurri and alittle bit more red pepper. For $14 this is a good deal. read more

Denise K and I were at the Verizon amphitheater for the TRAIN concert when we stumbled upon the Barcelona OnTheGo foodtruck!! I was pretty excited!! I LOVE food trucks :D We shared the Barcelona Quesadilla ($11.50) and the Crispy Fries with Garlic-Thyme Aioli ($5.50). The total was $17.00 for two really small items =/ I know food trucks are all pretty expensive, but for the price I have higher exceptions and I was under the impression that I had pay more for superior quality =/ however this was completely disappointing... First off, I LOVE quesadillas... and sadly I felt as though I would have been happier with a del taco quesadilla than this one. I know they used prime steak as an ingredient to elevate the flavors, but I didn't think it really tied in with the caramelized onions, blue cheese, and monterrey jack cheese too well. I like these ingredients but I don't think they went together that well in this item. And in regards to the fries, Denise K and I both agreed that the garlic-thyme aioli was the only thing impressive about the item. I think it is fair to say I won't be coming back. I don't mind paying extra when it comes to mouthwatering foods, but this was definitely not the case. read more

Chimichurri fries is the way to go. Price can be a little bit steep, and the portion you get is not as big as what you pay. Overall, very good shoe string fries though. Right amount of salt, and when combined with the chimichurri sauce, and tender steak, it is one of the best fries around. Wouldn't buy it too often though as it could break my bank. read more

I've been following Barcelona OntheGo since 2010 and I've always loved their food. They are mostly known for their sandwiches, fries, and tacos. In fact, the item that keeps me coming back in the top sirloin with the chimichurri sauce and fries. Last time I went, I thought the fries could have used another 45 seconds in the deep fryer as there was definitely not crispy enough. The real star of this dish is the chimichurri. It's a beautiful green color and combined with rare top sirloin it's heavenly. read more

I finally got the opportunity to try Barcelona at Forest Lanes tonight. It was freezing cold and the Mac 'n' Cheese sounded appealing. While placing my order I had a great chat with the owner's daughter or at least I think it's her. She was learning how to use to their credit card machine which is beneficial for me because I don't carry cash and unfortunately most of these trucks are cash only. :( Since I was first in line, my food arrived quickly. The mac 'n' cheese is out of this world amazing. I was expecting something similar to a boxed variety of cheesy powdered crap but this stuff is manchengo cheese and it's all piled up on shell macaroni and has a spicy chipotle kick. Yum! For $5 you can't go wrong and it's served HOT so be careful. You'll definitely beat the cold weather with this dish. I'm looking forward to trying other items this truck has to offer. read more
Barcelona OntheGo was parked outside the Anaheim convention center for a convention I was attending so we went outside to grab a bite to eat. I'd venture to guess the prices were a little inflated Above normal as I assume they had to pay a pretty penny to be there. That being said, the food itself was good. I had shrimp tacos. The value, however, was awful. I paid $10 for 2 shrimp tacos, where each taco only had 3 medium size shrimp in them. I wanted to clarify the first part of my review as I acknowledge the value was skewed by the convention. read more
Whenever I am at a food truck round up or the like at the Great Park this truck never fails to always be around. I never liked it. I don't know why. I love Spanish food, but one glance at their menu and I was highly unamused. Nothing looked particularly special. I told myself that as long as there were other food trucks around, I would never eat at this one. Well, that did not last very long. I was at another round up for the umpteenth time and found myself a little... exasperated. There were ten food trucks and yet I have eaten at all of them. Well, all of them except for one, Barcelona OntheGo. I glared at the truck and its menu. I could have ran away, but I was hungry. So I mused over the menu. Half of everything was sold out... the things that looked fairly tasty: Chorizo Grilled Cheese, Spanish Sausage Sandwich, Bacon Wrapped Dates ... you name it. Most of it was gone. So I was left with a couple of options and ended up getting the Steak Quesadillas and Potato Frittatas. Well I waited. And waited and waited and waited. I guess I couldn't blame them -- they had a TON of customers compared to all of the other trucks. It still took a while though... and time slows down for hungry Yelpers. Four minutes felt like an hour. The food finally came out. I'll admit, it didn't look too shabby, but it didn't look AMAAAAAAZING either. I sat down and took a bite out of the quesadilla. It was good... the steak was juicy and the cheesy was ooey gooey - just the way I like it - but it was nothing I haven't had before. The frittata was good after a couple of bites but then it started feeling dense. I couldn't eat the whole thing. I guess my first intuition was pretty accurate. No, Barcelona OntheGo isn't terrible, but it's not quite my style. Maybe the food's usually better. Maybe I was just in a pretty crappy mood. I don't know, but all I know is that I won't be coming back. read more

They accept credit cards. This truck was at mike ward park/lake view senior center in Irvine last Sunday for the free summer concert and I think will be here each Sunday for the concerts until aug 24 Seeing people walking around with the steak fries made my mouth watered, but when I ordered their signature $9 steak with fries I was highly disappointed. If you're reading this Barcelona, the fries and the steak tasted really plain and bland. Good portions, but the steak and fries definitely needs some seasoning! Cooking with pepper wouldn't hurt either. I had to come back for ketchup and tapatio, Something I did not want to do, but it was just so plain... read more

After reading all the great reviews - I decided to follow their twitter. I saw that they would be in Irvine (USC) Heck lets give it a try. Got there at 12 noon and there was no line - only a couple of guys waiting for their food, which is a nice surprse cuz Im not digging the Kogi lines. Guy was really nice, told me they had run out of Paella. Dang it thats what I wanted , and it would be 35 mins for him to make more. Ok well I got a couple of the croquettes, and a couple of the Empanadas. The empanadas were good. I didnt care too much for the croquettes. The croquettes were a bit mushy, fell apart as I was eating it. Just so people know the Croquettes come with 2 in every order as do the empanadas. Both $5 each order. I will be returning for that Paella! read more
3 times I've tried BOTG but never had the time and/or opportunity to review. But after my most recent visit, these guys deserve my long overdue Yelp shout-out for providing excellent grub. The Prime Top Sirloin was excellent and can be ordered either over salad or fries. The bacon-wrapped dates was sinful :-) Highly recommended! read more

This truck is at my work every Wednesday. I've ordered a couple of times, food is usually just ok. Nothing to write home about, but the tacos are generally good. Today my daughter and I went down and she got the steakhouse quesadilla which she usually likes. Today however she said something didn't taste right...it just tasted "off" somehow. It was also pretty burnt in many spots (see picture). She actually ended up throwing up her food almost immediately after eating it. Not saying it was the quesadilla, but she was perfectly fine before she ate it. I got the 2 steak tacos. The tacos were ok, but carne asada/steak is hard to keep from drying out in situations like this so I take that into account. For a $22 lunch I think I'll skip Barcelona moving forward. read more
Good flavor and reasonably quick for a food truck. The steak can be cooked to your liking, and it comes with delicious chimichurri sauce. This is what makes the dish, and they are very generous with it. You can get the steak on a bed of greens or a bed of fries. I got the greens, which have a vinaigrette dressing, but after eating I wished i had gotten the fries (should have gone with taste and satisfaction over healthiness). read more
