    Two Asada tacos   Two shrimp tacos  Strawberry Lemonade

    I drive all the way from Sacramento just for their asada and shrimp tacos, and they are absolutely worth the trip. Everything is fresh, perfectly seasoned, and packed with flavor. Hands down the best tacos I have ever had. 10 out of 10 every time. Even when I am completely full, I somehow still end up ordering one more for the drive home.

    Nachos!!

    Didn't have the greatest experience here recently. Chips in nachos were stale, which was unappetizing. Would have rather them say they were out of chips. Torts was good though.

    FOOD POISONING!! I got food poisoning eating tacos here Monday October 20! Beware! Chicken tacos were awful! Chicken looked and tasted weird. Almost like it came from a can, not shredded. Also I bit into a small bone or gristle on carne asada tacos. Birria was ok. I do NOT recommend this establishment. Expensive tacos and not good!

    Carne asada taco

    I order carne asada tacos and a quesadilla, and unfortunately it was very disappointing. The meat was extremely pale and looked nothing like grilled carne asada. Most of it was fat with barely any actual meat, and the texture was off. Carne asada is usually browned and flavorful, but this did not seem like that at all. I would not order this again.

    Shrimp taco - only 3 shrimp! For a $3 taco!

    Used to be my favorite place for shrimp tacos. About 6 months ago idk if it was an owner change or staffing/ cook change but it's gone downhill. I've tried eating here several times over the last few months and unfortunately this will be my last time eating here. They changed how they make the tacos and today I got 3 small shrimp on a $3 taco! I'd have to say go somewhere else which is unfortunate.

    Fonzis never disappoints! I usually call in my orders so I can pick up and get home to eat! These carne asada fries were bomb! They use two types of cheese, the fries I get them extra crispy, EXTRA jalapeños, and it's always so fresh! Don't forget your horchata!! This place is located in grub hub! This is my favorite taco truck!!!!

    Keto Tacos Grilled Chicken. Cheese wrap to make it Keto

    Not my first time to this area but my first to Fonzi's. Went with the keto chicken tacos and the Al Pastor tacos. Both were really good. By far the busiest truck at Grub Hub. I would definitely go back. I'd like to try a burrito next time. If you are in downtown Modesto give it a try. Parking inside by the trucks is nice with bathrooms onsite.

    Carnitas Tacos

    Been wanting to try this food truck for a while! First of all, $2.00 tacos, an almost unheard pricing everyday of the week! Double tortillas with plenty of carnitas! Fresh cilantro and onions, paired with pickled jalapeños. Solid tacos. #spicemeister approved!

    Keyo Tacos with Al pastor, shrimp and Birria (clockwise from the top)

    Great Keto food. In particular the shrimp keto tacos were bomb. And $3.50 for a keto taco is not bad at all.

    Carne asada tacos with everything on the side

    See all

    Do you guys wear gloves to cook n serve the people? Also do u touch the money that's given to u and touch food afterwards? Where do you use the restroom at? Sorry for being so upfront..I just stop going to these trucks for all those reasons.

    There is always two team member at the traile and the one that handles money does not handle food , we use the restrooms at the church where we park REDEEMER and if there was a need to help the cook we wash our hands in our hand washing station… Read more

We've tried many different Mexican restaurants in the last two years after moving here. We've gone to Hughson, Waterford, Oakdale and Modesto, however, Frida's is the best. The staff is friendly and courteous, checking in with us without having to get their attention. Thank you! Large portions, always taking home the rest. A good selection on the menu makes it easier to decide what to have, also they offer all our favorites. On our first visit I had the chili relleno dinner plate, ( the absolute best I've ever had), my husband had the enchilada plate (2 chicken and 2 chili verde) you can choose the meat. Today we went again, this time I had the chili verde super burrito (omg excellent ) my husband had the chicken taco's, again took 1/2 home for later. The chips are house made as well as the salsa, the salsa is perfect and delicious. We met the owner Angel and told him about trying other places and letting him know we thought his is the best. He sent us home with a bag of chips and salsa, then he sent a flan home with us to enjoy...... That's hospitality to the MAX! Totally a nice jester on his part. We appreciate everything. See you soon.Thank you Angel

The food is…read moreconsistently good, the drinks are solid, and they easily have the best chips and salsa around. Service is always friendly and reliable, which keeps me coming back. My only real recommendation is to avoid sitting in the bar area if you're in a hurry. Service there tends to move a lot slower, so it can take a while to get your order in and get your food. The restaurant itself is a little run down, and the bathrooms could definitely use some attention, but the bar and outside area is decorated nicely and has a good atmosphere overall. All in all, it's a great local spot and one I keep going back to.

    Unfortunately, this was a really disheartening experience…read more We waited over an hour for our food, and when it finally came out there was an issue with the size of the menudo bowl that had been offered to us. Instead of trying to resolve the situation or make it right, the manager, Noah, became argumentative and tried to debate what had been said rather than listen to the customer. After waiting that long, the last thing anyone expects is to feel like they have to argue just to be heard. What made it more disappointing was the lack of willingness to fix the issue or offer a solution. We came in hoping for a good meal and left feeling frustrated and unheard. It's sad because good service could have easily turned this into a positive experience. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case here. At the end of it he realized and came back and finally apologized.

The complimentary chips along with their salsa and beans paired amazingly well. I proceeded to get the choose three build your own combo with a beef taquito(pictured), green chicken enchilada, and a chicken burrito. The beef taquito was first of all huge, the biggest one that I have ever seen. It came with plenty of toppings including guacamole, sour cream, cheese, cabbage, and tomatoes. The burrito was decent, definetely could have used at least some more salsa, ended up being a filler on my plate. I saved the best for last, the classic enchilada was smothered in a delicious salsa that I dipped my other two items into. If you want to try out different things and get a good amount of food for your money, you can't go wrong with the build your own combo, especially from this establishment. Apart from the food, the service exceeded my expectations and it is perfect for your next casual dining experience.

I asked for grilled chicken and got stewed chicken with absolutely zero flavor. They said it came with guacamole and sour cream--neither were anywhere to be found. The "salad" was basically lettuce, pico, and whole beans with a super tiny portion overall. I added bell peppers and onions, maybe five pieces total, and they hit me with a $6 upcharge. Would've been nice to know that before so I could've said no thanks. Final price for this subpar salad? $25. I actually had to go back just to show them. The bar manager, Hamad (spelling), tried to help by adding more chicken and then told me the sour cream and guac were "under the shell." Really? Who hides condiments under the shell? Total waste of time and money. I'm done. No more chances.
