    Dear Management, I…read moream writing to bring a disappointing experience at the Jarochos Birria truck to your attention regarding an overpayment that occurred today, April 28th. My daughter and I visited your truck to take advantage of the $1.50 taco special and ordered 16 Al pastor tacos, totaling $24. When paying, I mistakenly handed the staff member--a woman in a red shirt--two $20 bills and a $5 bill, totaling $45. Although I intended to leave a small tip, I inadvertently left an extra $20 bill with your staff. When I returned shortly after to rectify the mistake and explained that I had provided three bills (two $20s and one $5), the staff member denied receiving the extra $20, claiming I had only provided $3 extra. Despite my clear recollection of the transaction, she refused to return the overpayment. As someone who enjoys supporting local food trucks and shares my dining experiences with a following of over 10,000 people, I am deeply saddened by this lack of honesty. I had hoped to remain a loyal customer, but this experience has unfortunately changed my perspective on your business. I wanted to ensure you were aware of this incident so it can be addressed internally to prevent similar situations with other customers in the future. Best Regards, Jason

    These guys have recently opened on Santee at the Shell Sas Station Parking lot…read more In addition to the terrific beef birria items that they offer, they also offer regular street tacos with carne asada, pollo asado, adobada, and a garlic shrimp taco. On this first visit, I had two beef birria tacos and one beef quesa birria taco. Both types of tacos were delicious. The highlight was no doubt the beef birria on each tacos. It's flavor was beefy and well seasoned, not to mention was bathed in a red chile broth that packed great flavor. I really appreciated the fact that they did not over use the clove like many other places do. It was all about the beef flavor here. The tacos came with fresh chopped cilantro, red onions, and a side of spicy pickled onions with habaneros, sliced cucumbers, lime wedges, and a red and green hots sauces. Both hot sauces were very tasty and offered a medium heat. The brother and sister team are very cool. They mean for you to have a great meal, with friendly service of course. There's plenty of parking. They offer outside eating tables with shade.

I had the quesataco with birria which was packed with flavor, cooked perfectly, and completed very well by their red and green salsas. My only suggestion for improvement is the menu needs to list the prices (two quesatacos ended up being about $11). Would definitely return!
