    Carne Asada Fries
    sunnie n.

    Had a random craving for carne asada fries and looked at yelp to see what was open late and Hugo's Tacos popped up. I pulled up and put in my order and sat back to wait. The place is well lighted with lots of tables for dining on the spot. I think a manager or owner? was outside talking sports with one of the customers. He asked the cook about our order as we were waiting to make sure it was coming and updated us on the progress of it. He also asked them to add extra salsas in our bag that I wanted. I did also order a Taco de Tripas extra crispy. I'm eating everything right now as I type. It's so delicious you guys come try it out. Shout out to the boss making sure our food was coming- I respect great customer service I'm coming back. 100% coming back. Pictures included but I already scarfed down my taco

    The staff at Hugo's Tacos were super friendly, and the food came out fairly quick. The sopes were loaded and very filling, but the carne asada was a bit on the dry side. But the carne asada fries were good since the cheese helped balance out the dryness.

    My go-to spot for carne asada fries! The high quality steak paired with the layers of cheese is just sooo good. The service is quick and friendly. It's located at a gas station where parking can be limited however the food is worth it. I prefer ordering before it's night when there's less people since I've seen this place get busy but it's really the vibe for late night cravings as well. Definitely recommend Hugos Tacos if you're in the area.

    This is a really good late night eat! I've been wanting to try this for the longest and got a chance to try it today. Food(5/5): we tried the large quesadilla with carne asada which was really tasty and filling. The portion was big and good for sharing between 2 people. They gave us 3 sauces as well. Service(5/5): the service was friendly! Ambiance(4/5): they have a lot of seating even though it's a food truck. But it can be a bit hard to find parking sometimes.

    Birria, asada, cabeza and pastor.

    We have been knowing about this spot for a while but never stopped. Finally decided to give it a chance looking for new flavors and overall a new experience. We ordered a bit of every meat choice such as birria, al pastor, asada, cabeza, chorizo and tripa all with hand made tortillas. By far the best one was the birria. Tripa was cooked as I asked for it (crunchy), pastor was a a bit different, tastes like carnitas which was nice. Asada was flavorful and so was chorizo (nice and crispy). Cabeza was okay. Overall, this place made it to my top taco list. 3 salsas with 3 levels of spicyness all super delicious. Service was quick, and they accept cash and card. They are open late and have seating area. Give this place a try.

    Ordered quesadillas with steak and beef tongue. Service was fast and the food comes out hot. Tasted really good, cheese melted and a lot of meat. The sauce are good as well, I like the orange one, the green sauce tasted spicy for me

This is definitely a new favorite for the kids when we run into them again at festivals. I can't wait to try more of their menu, like the Philly cheesesteak sandwiches and their noodle dishes.

    We had a really nice experience at G Spot Happy Tastebuds! There are a lot of different food trucks…read moreand options to choose from, although a few of the trucks were closed when we visited. It was pretty calm during the day and didn't seem to get a crazy amount of foot traffic, which I actually enjoyed because we were able to sit down, relax, eat, and enjoy the atmosphere without it feeling crowded. Between our food and drinks we spent around $46, so I would say it's moderately pricey, but everything we had was good. I had a birria taco from Mi Lindo Apatzingán, my husband got four tacos, and we also got rice and beans that we really enjoyed. Our food came out pretty quickly, definitely in less than 10 minutes. We also got sour apple drinks from Las Cherry's. The drinks took a little longer, over 10 minutes, but there was only one girl working at the time, so it was completely understandable. The drinks were refreshing and I definitely want to come back and try more of what Las Cherry's has to offer. I really like the whole concept here because there are so many different food trucks in one place. There's plenty of covered outdoor seating, TVs to watch while you eat, and colorful decorations that make it a fun but still calm and chill place to hang out. Even with some of the trucks being closed, there were still plenty of options. I would definitely come back, especially to try more from Las Cherry's and the potato food truck that caught my eye!

If you are not in the mood for Latin cuisine, there are food trucks with burgers and dogs. Not the boring kind either. TACOS MI REYNITA was the truck we chose. I saw a few Tik Toks on them and was sold. Hubbybhad 3 Did a lap around the food trucks line up and cannot wait to return and try the others. Plenty of tables to enjoy your meal. The kids are happy in the bouncy house right in plain sight from your tables. We found a tortilla truck! Bought 1 lb of FRESH and hot corn tortillas. Located: a little one-way driveway right after the car lot flags. We missed it first time driving by and made a go around the block to try again: plenty of parking. Great collection of choices.

    I was excited to see Shrimp'n Ain't Easy back for Gordon Biersch Night Markets for Summer 2026…read more Their Chop Cheese and Cheesesteak are still my favorite menu items, with juicy shrimp and crispy meat in each bite. Sometimes they provide green tomatillo sauce on top of the traditional orange sauce, which is great for cutting through the grease and cheese as it's tangy and sweet. We tried the Magnolia Chop for the first time and while this was great too, the hot link makes everything slightly saltier than I'm used to and is much more heavy and filling. I'll stick with the cheesesteak or chop cheese next time but will try more of their menu items going forward. Food arrives quickly even during the crowds and long lines at the night market. I've never waited more than 35 minutes combined for both the line to order and being called for our number to pick up our food.

    Really insanely tasty and decadent seafood tacos, hard to believe it's from a food truck…read more I just tried their Crab Taco and it's my favorite item now. Very generous with the crab and huge succulent shrimp. Super cheesy too. I'm actually glad it's not also vampiro style. Whatever you order, be ready for the cheese, because they are super loaded, and luckily I love both cheese and seafood. For the quality and generosity you get, these are well worth the price (Crab - $10, Vampiro - $8), and I was quite full after these two. Very fast service too, even during busy afternoons.

Their prices for food are very fair and reasonable compared to other places. I ordered the Carne Asada Supreme Burrito and that thing was HUGE. You can tell all of the ingredients were fresh and the taste did not disappoint one bit. I'm hoping I can try out the other items on the menu and see how the tacos and quesadillas are. In terms of location, it's not in the most visible area since it's in the empty parking lot across from Olive Garden. So you really need to be driving by close to see that there's a food truck nestled over there. I'm sure if this was in a high traffic space, more people would be coming here.

Frozen churros should be arrested for false impersonation. I was going to stop by Cardenas Markets to get Tres Estrellas Churro mix which is like bisquick for churros and make some at home. I highly recommend this mix and it even comes with a piping bag but you should have some experience of making choux pastry dough since the directions (for me anyways) have always been wrong. However, since I'm planning on baking lots of cookies tomorrow I decided to jump on Yelp Bay Area to find a nearby churro vendor. We could've gone down to Our Lady of Guadalupe Church or Christmas in the Park where there is one good churro stand down by Quetzalcoatl. Again, the other stands have those fake frozen impersonators but since I didn't want to search for parking I decided to go with the Yelp recommendation of Churros El Guero in front of Fresco Market next to Eastridge. This is also a very busy spot but we were able to score a parking spot right away. Unfortunately, the churro guy had just arrived and his oil was still heating up so we were patiently people watching. This is when we noticed lots of people going over to this haphazard outdoor dining spot. This was not the ideal spot to visit since the weather forecast has been falsely taunting us with rain all day. Since it was now noon we decided it was best to eat real food before munching on something sweet. I had never been to Elma's Taqueria which is connected to Fresco Market probably because I don't like that market. I went in once when they first opened and it stunk. Literally and figuratively. Nope, I'll pass. The line for Elma's was impressive so we strolled up to the outdoor window and looked up at the menu. It's basically Birria everything. Birria de Res (beef) and Birria de Chivo (goat) in a bowl, tacos, quesadilla, quesabirrias, etc...and daily specials including Menudo today. Since it was packed we shared a table with a gentleman from Michoacan while waiting for our order who said this is the best birria anywhere. He said even in Michoacan this is would be the best birria. High praise indeed. My verdict. It was good. Well seasoned, juicy and generous portions. I could only eat one taco so we packed up the rest to bring home and walked back over to the churro stand. Remember the churros? I did. In fact I remembered hiring El Guero to do some events for me in the past where he brings his pot of oil and makes fresh churros on the spot. Then you can have him fill it with chocolate, strawberry, caramel or other fillings. $3 each or 4 for $10. We opted for 2 originals, 1 chocolate and 1 strawberry. We gave him the cash, brought them home and plopped down to enjoy our fresh churros and we were happy. End of story.
