    Come with me to La Catrina a food truck located in Kendall. It was late at night and I wanted chicken tacos, I decided to finally try La Catrina. Tacos La Catrina offers a limited menu filled with amazing flavors. I ordered a Chicken Birria Pizzadilla and their Chicken Birria Taco. Both had great flavor, the tortillas held up well and did not crumble. Their Birria Consomé is rich in flavor and is not overly greasy. The Pizzadilla is great for multiple people, my whole family of 5 ate it. The chicken in both the tacos and pizzadilla is tender and has good seasoning, the consomé complements it well. I liked the Chicken Tacos more than the Pizzadilla, the tacos had good flavor on their own, and with the consomé, they were even better. The food also travels well. The service was amazing, they were very nice and attentive.

    The food is honestly amazing, I lived in Mexico and the closest I have found to authentic Mexican food was this spot, their staff is extremely friendly and service is always on point, I always get my food pretty fast even when there are huge lines, the environment is also great, they have chairs and tables for big groups to sit, if you haven't tried it go!!

    Taco Tuesday at La Catrina is impressive. The line is long, the music is pumping, and the people are patiently waiting for their food. I have to say that the tacos are pretty good. Not out of this world, but pretty good. Being that it was taco Tuesday they only had two types of tacos available, the steak and chicken. Honestly, what made the tacos really good was the Birria (the dipping sauce) it was really really good. Being that we tried this place on a Tuesday and the menu is limited I can't speak for the rest of the tacos that are on the list, but the ones that we did try were pretty good. We will be going back to try the rest of the of the menu and I'll be updating my review. I recommend that you go on a Tuesday so you can experience this place at its peak.

    Came for the $2 tacos on Thursday and wow! I thought the quality wouldn't be as good but I love myself a good deal. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and how loaded the tacos were. Will be coming back for some more birria steak tacos! Plaza they are located at offers plenty of parking!

    OMG. Been wanting to try this food truck with its glow in the dark exterior and painted happy skeletons eating tacos and drinking. We arrived on Friday around 6 before the crowds and my tacos birria were ready within minutes. Birria is a dipping sauce. I have no idea what's in it but it is GOOD! And I mean finger licking good. So glad we tried them out. Can't wait for Taco Tuesday where each taco is $2. La Catrina...keep the good stuff coming.

    With a variety of taco places around, I noticed this small food truck on 137 avenue and 128 street, located inside of Chevron parking lot. The location wasn't too full on a Sunday night and the service was friendly and quick. I went with the burrilla tacos that were a favorite online and a chicken mulita ( think round crunchy type quesadilla). The order was filled quickly and I waited less than 5 minutes to take the food to go. I realized why it was so fast once I tried the food. Great taste and cheesy when it came to both platters. However, it didn't taste fresh to be honest, it seemed as if the food was already prepped and cooked and was simply left to warm to fill orders. I say this due to the fact that the food was warm, and the tacos and mulita were not crunchy, which is what you would expect when it's freshly made. Anything fried for the most part is crunchy, so crunchy that you hear it. Both meals didn't have that, they were both chewy, which leads me to believe they're ready to go and just kept warm. However, the food had a great flavor and the sauce to dip in the food was also good. I didn't receive any chips in my meal, as I noticed some other pictures showed they did. I'd definitely come back here again with the hopes of it tasting fresh.

    AMAZING PIZZA! So so so good they deserve 5 stars. The birria tasted amazing and the tortillas were freshly made and crispy they were soggy. Everything was 10/10. The service was nice and helped us out with recommendations! And the ambiance was nice. They have several chairs located around them to eat and tables. Only thing missing was the music! But everything was very filling and yummy

    Next level birria! Can't choose a favorite between chicken or steak, they're both insane. I literally DRANK the birria sauce. Order more than you think you want, you'll eat them anyway. Or I'll eat them for you. Fast and friendly service. And Tuesday is taco Tuesday--$2 birria special. I love you La Catrina!

    I love, love, LOVE these tacos. They're my guilty pleasure when I am craving tacos. It's a food truck in a spacious lot near Wawa and there's luckily always parking. I have yet to go on a Tuesday ( which I definitely should since they're much cheaper then) but each time I go I die and go to heaven! I get the birria tacos each time so I can't say anything about the other menu items. Get these tacos, you will get hooked like I am!!!!

    Al Pastor Birria Tacos
    Oscar A.

    Came upon this food truck one night and decided to try. They had tacos as well as other items in their very small menu. I ordered the Al Pastor birria tacos and a chicken mulita. To me Birria is Birria and should taste like nothing else but I don't understand where they would be going with these different meats and putting birria at the end of each protein on their menu but anyways, the Al Pastor birria tacos was "eh". The meat was a little hard not tender at all. What's a taco truck without authentic hot sauces? They didn't have none. To me that was a fail. The chicken mulita however was ok. It was like a mini quesadilla but still failed to impress me. The overall experience here wasn't all great but can't say it was bad either.

Ever since I tried their steak Caesar salad I've been obsessed. That was my usual from there for 5 years. 2 nights ago we ordered from uptown and when we got our order I was so angry I didn't want to even eat my food. 1. Steak literally looked like wet dog food 2. They no longer do the frisée salad instead It's just plain old Romaine lettuce 3. For some reason they stopped giving their salsa now which was the highlight of my order 4. The container is so small and the egg was so hot that it melted all the Parmesan cheese and it was just a nasty glob 5. The eggs were so over boiled that they had that grey tint on the yolk and smelled horrible 6. 2 salads cost almost $50 so jokes on us Never again!!! I've literally banned uptown from our house. The audacity to charge so much for a mid salad topped with nasty dog food looking "steak"

We did the online order on their app. We were…read moreexpecting to get the same quality and service we got 3 months ago (5 stars) but unfortunately that did not happen this visit. We are very disappointed that the chicken and steak burritos were not seasoned very well (bland) and both were so dry. I couldn't even taste any cheese in the chicken burrito either. I took a few bites and had to give the rest to our dogs. What a shame. My daughter couldn't finish her burrito either. I tasted her steak burrito and it didn't taste like any steak that I have ever tried. So disappointing. The guac and chips were good but they were like a little side dish. So, there went a wasted $50 for lunch. We were still hungry. Since it was a to-go order, we didn't feel like going back all that way again. It was a very hot day. Service was strange. I sat in the car but my daughter went up to the counter to pick up our order. She stood there for a long time in the hot sun and no one helped her. There was a bag sitting on the counter already. Finally when she was helped, the guy said that the bag sitting there was ours!! She was highly irritated fir the poor service. He should have checked to see if his customer was there to pick up the only bag on the counter. In retrospect, we should have tasted our burritos before driving home to taste them but we trusted them. Sorry to say, we won't be going back.

My dinner plans changed last minute due to the weather, which was heavily raining and decided on Lolita despite not having reservations. Upon arrival we were instructed to go upstairs where the very young and inexperienced host could not figure out the system and said sorry there was no availability to accommodate us. We left disappointed and while going downstairs I decided to pull uo their booking site to confirm availability. The system reflected several available time slots for dinner. Kudos to the downstairs host that accommodated us immediately once I showed her the system reflected availability. The servers were truly incredible downstairs and I appreciate the very attentive and charming service provided throughout the evening! I ordered a beet salad which was almost perfect but was lacking feta or goat cheese which I highly recommend they consider having in the kitchen. The oxtails tacos were delicious and very filing. I also enjoyed the brown dessert. Thank you for a yummy evening with fantastic service!
