    Tostada de ceviche
    Angelica S.

    This tostada de ceviche is hands down the best one I've had in a really long time! I came here around 9:30 pm for some late night cravings for mariscos. I ordered 2 tostadas de ceviche and 2 tacos de al pastor and it did not disappoint one bit! They pack a lot on the tostada and tortilla. The only downside I would say is that it is pricey. Each tostada was roughly $10. I'm not sure how much the tacos were. They served us pretty quickly and there was a lot of people here enjoying some tacos or ice cream. I would def come back!

    Delicious and authentic. Live the tacos, ceviche, equite and the,agua frescas. It's a good place to go with family and friends. The atmosphere is lively with the outside dining area. Service could use improvements.

    CUSTOMER SERVICE: 0/5 It NEVER fails. The ladies serving the drinks inside are ALWAYS yapping and acting as if they don't have customers. It can be super empty and they just yap yap yap and ignore the customer. I am big on customer service and the ladies serving inside deserve a BIG fat ZERO stars . There was one guy waiting while we were inside and he had been waiting 5 minutes and the ladies never moved to begin to fix his drink which all that needs to be done is pour the pre-made drink into the ice filled cup. SMH! The dismay is how they look at us, customers, as if we are bugging and interrupting them. If you don't like your job, go elsewhere because you chose to work here. So do your job and work. Food: 5/5 Customer service here is 5/5 in the taco truck Drinks: 5/5 Atmosphere: feels a bit sketchy at times but it's almost. Place is always clean. Parking can be a pain. We come at night or during the day. It's 9:20pm right now and there are at least 25 people out here chillin and eating. My stars are based on the service. Otherwise this place would be 5 stars. I've been coming here for years and I don't know what it is with the women that end up working inside the drink area but they all, just ignore customers. It's really disappointing. The elote and treats are great. The drinks are amazing. I want to give 5 stars but it's hard with the continued service being the same year after year.

    highkey the $5 equite might have been the best purchase of the month for me. ceviche was mid but the service was super fast + there was a random mariachi band just playing music the entire time at like 11 am on a thursday loved the vibes

    Delicious authentic Mexican food! Love the tacos, ceviche, esquite and agua frescas. The dessert bar is great too! Fast service.

    It's a good place to go with family or friends after a party or on days off. Good atmosphere to be around with tv on the outside dining area. Love that they have so many options for desserts

Mariscos Jaliscos is a simple, humble and easy going food truck that easily beats any sit in boujee restaurant. Their menu is simple and easy to understand. Mariscos Jalisco is best known for their Fried shrimp tacos however, they have one of the best aguachiles I've tasted hands down. Their shrimp tacos are absolutely amazing with the right crunchiness and soft fried shrimp inside.

Hurts to say it but this might be my new favorite shrimp taco in ELA/Boyle Heights area. The service here is quick and friendly. I went on a Friday afternoon and did not find busy crowds at this food truck. Street parking is available and the times that i've visited other food trucks nearby i was able to find quick parking.

Even an Ice Cream truck COOL HAUS. Of the 2 food trucks, Ahn Joo's truck got my first bite. Asked for kim chi fried rice, WITHOUT PORK, it was swiftly served up without a glitch. The kim chi was surprisingly very good. Good amount of napa cabbage inside, rather chunky. It fulfilled my kim chi craving at $7. The second food truck, India Jones, served up some medium spicy hot fare. Great value for $8.50. Ordered a combo of lentil dal and vegetable korma, which came with a generous serving of basmati rice. Not too spicy hot, just enough to make me tear up a little. India Jones had the longest lines and people gushed about the food.

I recently enjoyed a viewing of "Jurassic Park" during an Eat See Hear event at Los Angeles State Historic Park when I was first introduced to Snowie Icy Desserts Food Truck. Although I frequently attended, worked, or volunteered at the myriad of year-around events throughout Southern California, this was my very first encounter with this meals-on-wheels. If you knew me at all, I LOVED all-things Hawaiian and shave ice was one of my favorite things to eat even as a meal itself. Would all of this bode well or would I desert this truck for another!? QUICK BIO "Snowie Icy Desserts and its owner Gisselle Lopez will transport you to the Islands with her beautiful mobile tiki shack! Their fluffy ice is available in over 30 flavors and their authentic Hawaiian toppings will definitely be a hit at your next event! If your party prefers ice cream they can offer a delicious sundae bar that will surely cater to everyone's palate. If you really want to make sure your guests have the sweetest experience, surprise them with our Fairy Floss Gourmet Cotton Candy treats; they're pure deliciousness!" PURCHASE Mango Watermelon Flavored Shave Ice ($5.00): On this sweltering day, nothing sounded better than shave ice. This fluffy mound of feathery soft ice was so delicate it started melting instantly. With an abundance of sweet mango and watermelon syrup throughout, you also had the option to add a drizzle of condensed milk on top and a scoop of ice cream at the bottom. This was edible art at a bargain price https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wHErc9oORPDIJSEiUmXwng&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! SERVICE A friendly woman greeted me, quickly took my order, and minutes later my order was ready, all decked-out in its glorious colorfulness in a festive flower cup. All was chillin' - aloha and mahalo! PARKING (Varied; FREE this instance) Being a food truck, they were at the beck and call wherever the event was held. In this case, the event took place at a state park with plenty of paid parking, FREE and timed street parking along the main drag of Spring St. and surrounding side streets, or you GoMetro as I did to the Chinatown Gold Line Station. Another option was a driving service like a bus, taxi, Lyft, or Uber - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Your standard self-sufficient food truck with an exterior food menu, order and pick up windows, but no area for condiments, napkins, utensils, or designated seating area. Plenty of natural lighting was prevalent during the daytime while minimal electric park and streets glowed at night. There were no TVs unless you considered the movie screen and movie that played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HTgLGqT9_BTSQMYyClmJvQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL I loved the Snowie Icy Desserts Food Truck and would definitely seek them out again at the next event I attended or worked. Heck... I just might hire them for a private party (951-216-8752)! First and foremost, they sold the far-superior shave ice and not the much-inferior show cone because there is a very distinct difference. Although I only tasted two flavors, I wanted to try them all! One simple request would be to offer azuki beans, coconut, and jackfruit as additional toppings. The price, portion size, and service were perfect. And, if shave ice wasn't your thing as crazy as that sounded, they also sold ice cream and other simple sweet confections. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $5.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice...AMEX! 5.0 STARS

Birds were chirping and music was playing out of the speakers scattered throughout the area. It's a food truck. I ordered the cheesy Mikey. I only waited less than 5 minutes for it. The line to order was pretty long. I waited in that line for an hour or longer. But that's understandable since a lot of groups ordered tons of items while it was just me that ordered. I got to speak to Mike since one of his employees left. He verified my order, gave me napkins since it's not self serve and pointed out the ketchup and other condiments I think. The cheeseburger came with lettuce tomato onion garlic aioli sauce and the patty. I loved how all the flavors blended together, nothing was overpowering. It came with fries and it filled me up. The portion size was perfect. My order was $23.84 but that's because I tipped 10% and I think it was worth it.

The chicken was hanging off the sides of the bun. They give a very generous portion. I also got the corn poppers with lemon pepper seasoning. When the menu says corn "popperS," I thought I'd get more than one. The fact that they charged $4.00 for a half ear of corn is ridiculous. I was even madder because it was delicious! It was breaded and deep fried. The breading was great and ensured that the corn wasn't oily. If the serving was two, I would feel like I kind of got my money's worth, but not one. I'd never get that again. My husband got the 10-piece wings with half garlic parm and half lemon pepper. He said the wings were big and fried to perfection. He loved them. He also got fries. They were $4.00 for a pediatric serving size. Overall, the meal was very good. The main items were worth the price, but they really charge too much for the sides considering their size.
