The Super Burito was really good, It also had a lot of really good flavor. This is now my favorite place to get burritos and other good food. Im definitely coming again. The lady I talked to at the order window was also very kind and nice! If you want really good food and service this is the place to be! read more

I'd always seen this taco truck when I drove past on a regular occasion, but had never stopped before until I went with my friend and her daughter. I got two of the yummy special shrimp tacos and they were HUGE!! I could barely finish one, which was a bummer because I just wanted to keep eating since they tasted so AMAZING!! They do not take credit card, much to my embarrassment since my friend had misinformed me that they did. The cashier was wonderful and let me squeak by with the cash that I had on hand. I was embarrassed that I didn't have the full amount, but she was very understanding and so nice about it. The food is absolutely DELICIOUS!! read more

The food is really good there. It is super convenient since there is a gas station and store next to it. You can order a burrito and then get a drink from the store. The asada fries are really delicious. read more

Love that I can order online - service is very friendly. Pretty mid food imo but my wife loves the wet burrito! The convenience wins out for me over food trucks that have better food sometimes read more

Amazing food! This place continues to impress me every single time. I love to order their asada tacos. They have never messed up on one of my orders and have amazing customer service. The staff is extremely friendly and patient. I love the food, the outdoor seating they offer, especially for it being a taco truck. It's super convenient with this spot being right next to a gas station! They have amazing prices and good quality food. I will continue to regularly visit. This is my go to taco spot! read more

place never lets you down no frills, they have a shaded seating area if you want to eat there next to the Sinclair gas station. read more

Disappointed with the Breakfast Burrito Tried the breakfast burrito and was really disappointed. We stopped on our way to Yosemite. It was packed with beans but had no eggs at all or meat at all--definitely not what I expected from a breakfast burrito. This is actually the first time I've felt strongly enough to write a food review, but I felt people should know. Would not recommend this item. read more

Stick to the tacos. Super burrito was not great. Refried beans, chewy asada, way too much sour cream and completely falling a part.

Was in the area picking up a U-Haul and spotted this truck on the side of it. It looks like a newer truck and there was a covered area with lots of seating available. I ordered 1 asada taco, 1 pastor, and 1 carnitas. They were all fire! My favorite was carnitas!! Yum , I'm definitely coming back! read more

We did a large multi family order so we got 20 tacos 4 quesadillas and two burritos..Carne asada was a grayish color with every bite getting gristle. There were hardly any white onions or tomatillo salsa on the tacos which made them taste like I was eating meat and tortilla. They put a lot of carnitas on the tacos but it was extremely dry. I had to force myself to eat them. Really wish I could have my money back. Also they didn't give us any salsa on the side which normally you wouldn't need if they put more than a little bit of salsa on the tacos. I guess if you buy that many tacos they expect you to eat them dry. The kids and wife really like their quesadillas. read more

Came through late-ish on our way back to the Bay from Yosemite. We were literally the last orders before they closed up shop. The service was quick and gracious. I had tripas and lengua tacos. Friends got chicken wet burritos. Those smelled really good and they said they were well seasoned and nice and juicy. My husband had a carnitas taco salad which he enjoyed and the kids got al pastor torta and quesadillas, both were great. Would definitely recommend and come back! read more

This food truck is sooo good! We stopped here on a trip and it was perfect. The food was quick, easy, and super cheap. They had tons of tables and overhead coverage. Afterwards you can get dessert at the Sinclair Mart! read more

Delicious food truck! The first time I came here I got the Bobby burrito with Al pastor and shrimp. It was fresh, delicious, well seasoned and the flavors melded well together. The next thing I tried was a California burrito with carnitas. Wow! Some of the best carnitas I've ever had. Definitely come try this place if you want to try a new food truck in the area. They are parked across from Whitmore park on the corner of College and Bowen in Modesto. Very friendly staff. Gave us a sample of their Aguas on our first trip and it's a must get every time now! read more

Great breakfast burritos!! Best chorizo burrito I've had in a while. Workers are polite and helpful. Food comes out fast and hot!! Definitely be back for more. read more

I LOVE Mexican food. This by far is the best place in Oakdale to get authentic asada. There is no rubbery/chewy quality to it EVER. We've ventured to multiple local restaurants but have not gone back since finding El Vaquero. There's no reason to. Their prices are good. Food is great, staff are friendly. The menu is small- but that is likely why they've mastered their craft. read more

Been going here since the other taco truck west of here about 1/4 mile raised its prices. Up until last night this place had decent chicken burritos. But yesterday we stopped here to get chicken burritos, when we got home started eating mine about 1/3 of the way through it I noticed something very chewy while eating it. I stopped chewing and spit out approx 3" long piece of chicken skin, needless to say it made me sick. I will not EVER go back. I guess they don't care what people eat. read more

Very good mexican fast food in a truck! great food and service. If you're in town, drop by and try them. you won't be disappointed.

The food was delicious. The service is great. They keep the area super clean. Best taco truck in Oakdale!

It's hard to find a good burrito, and I was expecting better from this place .since all reviews were saying great things about the food here.. Honestly, my burrito was terrible.. No flavor .The rice and beans had the same texture . Rice was mushy and no seasoning. Price was reasonable, but I guess you pay for what you get for. read more

Haven't rated in awhile but the whole family agreed that it deserved it. Legit taco truck, we all had different burritos and kept saying "mmm" as we ate. I had chicken, not dry at all and very tasty, husband had carnitas which were perfectly crispy and delicious, and daughter had carne asada and loved it. Noted as a future put stop for sure! read more

Great taco truck. Everything is fresh, tasty and of great quality. Favorites include Asada tacos, Al Pastor Tacos, shrimp tacos, Special chicken tacos and their California Burrito. Would put this place up with some of the best taco trucks in our area. Prices are very reasonable and portions are good. Would recommend and do recommend to anyone and everyone! read more

You can't go wrong here. This is the old cook from the other red taco wagon next to Circle K. This is the one in the Sinclair (dinosaur) gas station parking lot. His menu has expanded since opening up his own spot. read more

Extremely rude and prices more expensive than what is posted on the menu. Very disappointing used to love these guys.

Food was great salsa is awesome I especially like the tripa ones they left them nice and toasted

This is the worst burrito I have had in my life. ZERO flavor, meat low quality (rubbery). Rice and beans were over mashed.

Fantastic customer service. Very friendly and helpful. Everything on their menu is good. My favorite is the California Burrito. Never have to wait long and can call-in your order too. Definitely our favorite Taco truck! read more
