    Cubana
    Miguel S.

    Solid 4. I don't gives 5's because it's hard to even understand a five or what it is. I got the Cubana. Delicious. Been wanting to try it for a while. Only thing I would gripe on is one of the slices of tomato was really thick... not a deal breaker but not a fan of it. Fries were fresh and tasty. Bread toasted perfectly and tasted very good. I wanted to ask where they got their bread from. I would get it again.

    Birria tacos
    Maddie P.

    Sooo tasty, little hidden gem. The family is so sweet and inviting. They only produce quality. I get production costs can be high, the prices are ok, but the quality is worth the price. Love a good salsa bar, they have it to grab as much as you need. Highly recommend

    Jarrito Loco to go
    Sindy V.

    Was here for the first time this evening. We've been visiting from Orange County and we were craving tacos. The food truck was very close to our rental so we decided to try it out. So glad we did, the tacos were delicious I had a carne asada and lengua taco. The tacos are packed with meat and the salsas were delicious as well. I also had a jarrito loco and it was bomb. Definitely hit the spot! The service was great also, very friendly and fast.

    Taco combo with a shrimp taco and a fish taco and all the salsas they make yum!

    Get the shrimp taco combo and try all the salsas! This place is fantastic, nice, laid back service, and they even use real forks and plates! 10/10

    The food is always good and the people wonderful but you don't always receive what you expect. I ordered a chile relleno burrito with beans and cheese. If you look at their chile relleno plate, the relleno is heavily smothered with vegetables. This makes a burrito an absolute soggy mess, not what I wanted. It was delicious but next time I would order it dry. Be warned or bring a bib. Their menu has greatly expanded!

    Family stopped her for dinner after our trip to Legoland! Great service... Fernando was so kind! Delicious food. Beautiful atmosphere. 10 out of 10! Highly recommend.

    The food here is really good. Everything was hot and fresh with delicious flavours. The gentleman who took our orders and made the food were helpful and kind. The prices were reasonable and the portions were generous. Overall, this place was fantastic and we will be coming bac

    Octopus Taco
    Danielle E.

    Enchiladas, rice and tacos are all delicious. The Octopus taco was so tender and flavorful.

    They've got a cute patio seating area out front.

    If you're looking for some great Mexican food, then you should consider Gaby's Tacos. They are located just off of Oceanside Blvd & Camelot (in the Five Star Smog parking lot) Gaby Tacos is a small family-owned Mexican food truck that's known for their tacos and quesadillas. BUT, they're also one of the best spots for tortas and they have great burritos too! I recommend their Cubana torta , shrimp quesadilla , milanesa torta, Marca Diablo Burrito, and anything with al pastor or even their fish tacos with their yummy green sauce. They've got a shaded canopy with patio seating in front that can accommodate couples or family groups. They also have heaters to keep warm. The one con to their location is the street traffic noise, but they do have their music playing and it gives off a nice "Cabo street dining" vibe. You'll also have to use the restroom next door at the Smog Station. They also don't sell alcohol. But they have excellent Agua Frescas & horchata! I recommend this family business and they even offer catering!

We tried a few different drinks, not sure if I remember them all but the Snickerdoodle latte, the Candy Orange mocha, the cardamom rose latte, a rose latte, the magic lemonade, and something else. All our drinks were ordered with oat milk and everything we ordered was vegan friendly (I asked!). Our family really enjoyed the grab and go pistachio chia pudding! All chia pudding is vegan friendly and they had several flavors. I would have purchased more at the time if they were just a tad cheaper. I will need to go back for more! They also had several pastries. There was only one vegan option that I recall- a vegan poppyseed muffin. I didn't get to try it on these visits but would like to soon! We had a mishap with one of our drinks and they kindly made it right, which goes a long way in our book and guarantees a return visit. Thank you for that. Our youngest daughter enjoyed playing with the little kitchen and toy trucks. There is limited seating inside but more picnic style bench seating outside. The coffee shop shares a space with the Pilates studio. We saw a few sessions in progress while getting our drinks. Service was usually quick and friendly. There was only one time that it took a bit of time. I appreciate their Pay It Forward wall. They also sell kids toys, shirts, coffee mugs and more.

I loved the bean and cheese burrito, the asada tacos were greasy and I would avoid them. Fish tacos were good. They do charge extra for the sauces and I found most weirdly sweet. The Habanero one was good. Now for the best part: the drinks here rock! Note that they make extra strong drinks and I was happy after just one spicy margarita. Service is friendly and they do have a dog friendly patio. I will definitely be back when I'm visiting Oceanside next time.

The atmosphere is such a cool, unique blend of old-school hip-hop culture and colorful abstract art. The absolute best part? You actually order your food straight out of a repurposed old-school bus parked right next to the main bar setup. Our server was awesome--super welcoming and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the menu choices. Here is what loaded up our table: OG Taco & Yard Bird Taco: Packed with flavor, tender meats, and signature sauces. (The meat did surprise us though because it comes out a little sweet) Flounder Pounder & Skrimps Carnal Tacos: Fresh, seasoned seafood options with fantastic crunch and zip. Kids OG Taco: A total hit with our son, who declared it delicious. Chips & Salsa: We had a slightly mixed experience here--a few chips felt like they were either a bit stale or just needed an extra minute in the fryer, but the salsa flavor itself was spot-on. Capacity Brewing Non-Alcoholic IPA: Crisp and refreshing beverage to wash down all that spice while keeping things family-friendly. Overall, it's a rad, laid-back spot with big flavor and a fun environment that kids and parents alike will enjoy. B.U.M.S. Pro-Tips: Beat the Peak Hour: Seating near the bus started filling up while we ate. Arrive slightly ahead of the lunch or dinner rush to grab a prime spot near the art walls. Mix & Match Tacos: Don't stick to just one style--pairing a seafood option like the Flounder Pounder with a classic meat taco gives you the best of both worlds. What's your ultimate go-to taco when trying a new spot--classic meat, fresh fish, or loaded shrimp? Drop your favorite in the comments below!
