Yes, they do vary, ranging with the number of table options and meat with an occasional fatty/chewy part. However, luckily those marginal days are limited enough to keep my wife rolling with me. The truck puts out a nice spread of salsas, chilies, and sides. My wife really likes the potatoes and nopoles. I like the green salsa (which appears a bit spicier than the red) and the roasted jalapeños with onions. On those really special nights, they have the a very spicy chopped habanero chili salsa that will burn you a new one. Yes, habanero is one of my biases to move this truck to five stars. After a night of drinking and having a good habanero sweat, it makes the reward complete for those difficult weeks. As far as the meat, I can only speak for the carne asada and pollo. The steak is mostly consistent with being lean, flavorful, and tender. My wife gets the chicken which is lean and not goopy. She's picky when it comes to her meats. I cannot speak for the pork options. The tortillas are not soak in oil and/or fat when they warm them on the grill. Only one tortilla is used per taco (which is our preference), so be careful with loading them up. I've been eating at the local trucks and taquerias for the last seven years, and this one is my default go to for grabbing some carne asada tacos.This truck has evolved some during that time from when they were off of Bundy and Nebraska, but they have remained good. Today, they start by the Stoner Park tennis courts and head to Santa Monica and Stoner Ave around 8 p.m. The only other taco place my wife follows me to and eats with is Taco Plus.

It is unclear why this taco truck is parks only a block from its actual restaurant, but it can be…read morefound late at night on the corner of Barrington and Santa Monica Blvd serving Oaxacan specialties and common items such as burritos, tacos, and tortas. I stopped by to grab dinner with a friend, and was surprised at the amount of food we got considering the prices they were charging. We started off with a sizable Cecina Taco ($1.50) that came with two layers of corn tortillas, thin Oaxacan marinated pork, pico de gallo, guacamole and a drizzle of mole on top. The marinated pork was meaty and tender but the salty marinade was one-dimensional at best. The guacamole was not as thick textured as it should be, but the sweet flavors overlapped nicely with the pointed onions, cilantros, and chunky pieces of cecina. It was mouthfuls of deliciousness. I also ordered a Lengua Torta ($4.50) that looked like a humongous whopper with wide torta buns, a spread of black beans, chunky lengua with easy to shred texture, lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onions, and mayo. The buns were a tad on the frail side and I'm not a fan of lettuce in tortas or other types of sandwiches. However, it is the largest torta I've seen in a long while, and they also threw in a lot of chips, pickled carrots, a jumbo jalapeno, and a side a dull spicy lingering salsa that could use a hint of smoke to complete the value meal. Overall there was little to complain about as they were very thoughtful at wrapping our food so the temperature and freshness can be maintained without making a mess by the time it was brought home. The best part of the meal was their bottled non-dairy Strawberry Horchata that served as the perfect finisher. I love horchata and have been struggling to find the non-dairy version so from now on I'll know where to get it. To sum it up, I'd characterize their cuisine as one that puts a strong focus on freshness, good value, and a breadth of ingredients that were tasty when layered together. I can't say this trick is better than the authentic taquerias in the Mission District, but for a food truck, their extensive offerings beat the heck out of the many gourmet trucks where a generous wholesome meal and hard to beat prices can be expected. I'd love to return to try their Tlayuda and Tasajo plate.

Because I wanted to give you an honest review,I ate it on the spot. Taco was not crispy, couldn't taste the batter, or the fish. The carnitas were ok. In my opinion, they could have used a little more seasoning. I had a carnitas taco and an order of carnitas nachos. I felt like the carnitas on my nachos were a bit dry. And the cheese on my nachos didn't melt. The nachos were quite small for the price ($12). Ordered a cheeseburger. It does not include fries, those are sold on the side. The cheeseburger was very dry. Not very flavorful and the fries were ok. The Al pastor taco was good. I noticed that our food was not necessarily hot. Again, we ate our food there and in the car. Don't see why it wouldn't be hot if it's fresh. And if I had to pick something good out of this visit, I'd say the tortillas were nice.

Quality isn't the best. I got a burrito and tasted fairly bland. Was interesting to find peas in the burrito. They also toasted the wrap a bit too much. Also saw as they threw the raw meat on the grill, drop a few pieces on the platform where they build plates but didn't wipe it down. Speed is a bit slow, at least when i was there since there were only two people. There's a table available, but no seating. Sauces include a spicy red, verde, onions, radish and lime. Cash only.
