Taquitos al Pastor
César L.

Una joyita escondida en San Mateo Camila's Tacos nunca falla -- todo lo que probé estaba increíble. La quesadilla bien doradita y llena de sabor, el burrito generoso y con todo lo que debe llevar, y los sopes... uff, de otro nivel. Además, las aguas y refrescos de vidrio le dan el toque auténtico. La atención fue rápida y muy buena vibra. Perfecto para matar el antojo y sentirte como en México por un rato

Stopped by the taco truck in front of Safeway on El Camino to pick up lunch. The woman working in the truck was so friendly. She recommended a burrito and tacos. The food was delicious and the portions were very big . I will definitely come back.

Tacos - carne asada and el pastor
David B.

Amazing tacos for a reasonable price! The truck was on the El Camino in front of Safeway. Red truck with some chairs in front. I had two tacos, carne asada (steak) and el pastor (marinated pork). If you order with everything it comes with seasoned onions, carrots on the side, and fresh onions and cilantro on the tacos. You can get green or red sauce on the side. Overall it's a great street taco. One of the best I've had in the area. Worth a try

Found this little gem in San Mateo on my way to running errands during lunch. They are parked across Safeway on the street, but you shouldn't have trouble finding a red food truck ;) I got the pastor, lengua, and carnitas. Honestly, it was so good and for the price ($2!!!!), well worth driving there. My favorite was the carnitas as they fry it but not too dry. I suggest eating the tacos with the grilled onions they give you...it adds a little sweetness :)

Good. Priced a little higher than other taco trucks in the area, but they put a shit ton of meat so I'm not complaining. I tried the carnitas, pastor, and asada tacos. Of those, I think the pastor was best because it was most tender, although the carnitas and asada were also pretty good.

2 pollo, 2 carnitas, 2 adobo tacos with everything
Kevin L.

I was so happy I found this taco truck, as I had not found good classic tacos in San Mateo. I get the chicken, carnitas and adobo tacos every time and all are delicious. The little touches like a light fry on the corn tortilla to give it a slight crunch, and the grilled onions and marinated carrots really make the meal for me. However, if you don't like spicy food be careful - the salsa can be hot some days.

Tacos are very good. Got the chicken tacos and they were flavor packed. They are the few places which also have tamarind jaritos.

Might be the best al pastor i've tried! I'm not sure how busy this place gets, but I went at 8:30pm…read moreon a Friday and it was very easy to pull in and get parking. The wait for the food isn't very long at all! I've gone twice now and haven't been disappointed. The smell of the al pastor being cooked on a spit and sliced right next to the line is amazing. Enough to lure you in a couple blocks away. I've gotten the Quesadilla Hawaiana and al pastor tacos so far. The flavor of the al pastor is very smoky and savory, which pairs well with the sweet pineapple that comes with it! I think the sweetness and savoriness has a close to perfect balance. I was very satisfied with the amount of meat they put on both the quesadilla and taco. I also got half horchata and half fresa which was bomb! They also have a self serve salsa + veggie garnishes that includes bags and salsa contrainers for to-go. It included 2 different salsa verdes (which I believe they might've been a raw and roasted tomatillo salsa), salsa roja, and a spicy (maybe habanero) salsa. Plenty of veggies to pack as well, like cucumber, pickled veggies, lime, and onion & cilantro. There's a few outdoor tables with seating next to the salsa bar aswell. Will be one of my go-to places for mexican food now.

I've been wanting to try OLHSO Truck since it opened and finally had my chance during a catered…read moreevent. The concept of having Korean food cooked in a robotic food truck is interesting to me. Since the food was catered, unfortunately I was unable to see the robots cooking in action, but fortunately was able to taste the final products. I was able to try the Wagyu galbi (short ribs), dak galbi (marinated chicken), Seoul food bowl (stir-fried pork belly and shrimp), and japchae, served with their corn salad, kimchi, and white rice. The Wagyu galbi was very flavorful with a good amount of vegetables; though I enjoyed the inclusion of lotus root, the veggies seemed like borderline filler to skimp out on meat. The dak galbi was also flavorful though spicy, and again the inclusion of rice cakes seemed like filler. The pork belly and shrimp were delicious, and I liked that the pieces of pork belly I had didn't have an overpowering amount of fat. The japchae was pretty standard and was nice to balance out the meat. I enjoyed the corn salad because it added a creamy component to my meal. The kimchi got lost in the mixture of food in my bowl and the rice was cooked perfectly by the robot. Overall, I enjoyed the food prepared by OLHSO Truck. Unfortunately, since the food was catered and already prepared when I arrived, I cannot comment on the service or wait times provided by the staff. I would consider ordering food from the truck if I am craving Korean fusion type of food and am too lazy to dine in at a local Korean restaurant. If the food from the truck is a good representation of the restaurant in downtown San Mateo, I am more inclined to try the restaurant for a nice sit down dining experience.

Have been looking forward to trying the OLHSO Truck out. Unfortunately, after downloading the app…read moreand signing up, the checkout failed at 11:14am stating that the order failed and they are closed for business. It also said to check their Instagram for their schedule. Checked the Insta and the pinned post says it would be open for business today, Aug 8, from 11am - 2pm for zip codes 94403-94404 (which we live in). Tried again at 11:40am in case they're just behind schedule but still didn't work. Too bad as we have dined several times at their restaurant and love their food and service there. Hope they get their schedules worked out soon! Would not recommend depending on this as your lunch.
