The little lunch truck on the side makes some pretty banging burritos too. I haven't had adobada in awhile and it was nice to see it on a menu.

I kept trying to pronounce "tortilleria". I think I have it right?…read more As you can guess by the name, they make and sell tortillas here. They unfortunately did not have flour tortillas for my burritos when I stopped by, but you can still get corn ones. There's a few other things to pick up as well: queso, Mexican sodas, even toys for the kids. They were very friendly when I popped in.

The red and green salsas are also quite good, spicy but not too much so. The red one is tangier. The service is friendly and helpful. The lady was thoughtful enough to put together that if I didn't want sour cream, I also might not want cheese, and asked me. You can ask for a cup of water. This truck has lots of outdoor picnic tables. There is a porta potty and a couple of other vendors nearby.

Lalitos is a great little lowkey spot…read more I ordered a tamale plate which consisted of 1 tamale (chicken or pork) and a side of rice and beans ($10). Simple enough. The tamale was fantastic, full of seasoned & marinated chicken. I think it was mole. The rice had a nice smoky flavor and went well with the seasoned beans. Overall it was very satisfying and well worth the price. It looks like they have branched out and now have a dessert/snacks cart. There was a wide array of Mexican fruit snacks and other drinks available. I didn't get anything on this visit, but definitely next time.

Absolutely love the food here…read more I highly recommend getting the Flauta. Their portions are really generous and prices are cheap. The quality is absolutely top notch. I've been here about 5 times this month and I plan on going back today. The staff is very friendly, and the owner treats people like family. Give this place a chance!

Mine was filled with beans, cheese and pork. The sauce was very spicy. The coleslaw was another thing that I was very surprised about, because it actually tastes like an actual salad....not sweet, and not full of mayo. This is how coleslaw should be....

This was my first real foray into the Mexican food scene in Eugene/Springfield... and I really,…read moretruly hate to be harsh, but I'm sorry to say that I'm not sure it could have gone much worse. With my dad being in town with me, the two of us decided to go on a late-night taco run. We went with a big order that included 2 carne asada tacos, 2 tacos campechanos, an asada burrito, and a chorizo breakfast burrito. Starting with the asada itself: it was just depressingly, woefully bland. The meat was crying out for any sort of seasoning. Somehow, though, this wasn't the worst part -- even more strikingly, it was clear that liquid smoke was likely used as well. If you've never tasted liquid smoke before, it's a horrible, powerfully artificial flavor that should go nowhere near any quality piece of meat. Color me thoroughly impressed if this was not the case here. The asada burrito had almost no asada in it, despite my dad requesting "double" meat. The chorizo had a strange aftertaste, not super pleasant. Furthermore, proper chorizo gives a bright punch of acidity, a stout kick of spice, and a rich unctuousness (aka: that sinful, I-hate-myself fattiness... you know the one) -- this had none of those things. Making a duo of the asada and chorizo in the tacos campechanos did not elevate either meat; it ended up kind of just being a tandem of sadness and regret. My dad -- who never, ever says anything bad about Mexican food -- may have put it best: "Yeah... this was pretty freakin' bad." I will say that the service was friendly and informative... I will always, always appreciate and recognize that in a business. The food, on the other hand, I'm sorry to say might have been the worst I have had to date as far as Mexican goes. I am hoping (praying!) that I find a go-to taco/burrito spot around these parts soon -- I may go certifiably insane if I don't.

We ordered the wet chicken burrito, fish tacos, chicken tacos, chicken quesadilla, and chicken fajitas. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The portions were huge, so come hungry! They also offer a special menu on Fridays and Saturdays, which is a nice bonus if you're looking to try something different. The seating area was very comfortable with a covered shed, plenty of benches, and fans. What really stood out during the hot weather were the mist sprinklers, which made dining outside much more enjoyable. The prices were very reasonable for the amount of food you get, and the entire place was clean and well-maintained. A special shoutout to Alex for providing excellent customer service. He was friendly, welcoming, and made sure we had a great experience. We'll definitely be back!
