I ordered a tostada of pastor... this was off. In the past when I ordered it it would come with avocado, tomato, cheese and the beans tasted old. This was disappointing, the cooks are definitely not as good as the ones in the past, I stopped going because the meat wasn't cooked all the way and the taco tortillas weren't cooked. I went back to see if it would be better but got this... never again. read more

La Frontera - tostada de pastor - Food Trucks Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

See all

Cheap prices, authentic street tacos, what else can I say this is one of the best food trucks around. Get the al pastor tacos

Best burrito ever! I'm not a Spanish speaker, but had no trouble ordering lunch. We had one chicken and one shredded beef. Both were great and served piping hot. The burritos are huge, plenty to split. read more

I'm getting tired of yelp being wrong about times places open and what they serve. When I'm driving through a town, I don't have time to waste. This place does not have Sonoran hot dogs and an orange Jarrito was $2.25. To be fair I didn't order any food because all I wanted was to try a Sonoran hot dog which is what I searched for in yelp. read more

I was visiting on business from Wisconsin and met up with my wifes uncle John from California and we went hunting for authentic Mexican food. At first I yelped a place in the ghetto that was closed up, prostitutes and drug dealers on every corner. As we were driving back toward safety, I saw this truck under bright lights with a tarp and make shift tables underneath with people sitting and eating. I didn't care if we got mugged, I was hungry and there were plenty of witnesses. Neither of us speak Spanish, but the old dude in the truck spoke just enough to take our order and money. I had a ham and avocado quesadilla and Uncle John had a carne asada burrito. His stuff looked so good I decided to try that too. It was a little bit-o-awesome. And they have this avocado sauce that was so smooth creamy and good. You would be a total moron not to eat here if you are in the 'hood. It sits near the corner of VanBuren and 16th St. read more

Authentic Mexican food! The street tacos are delicious and so are the burritos! It's a food truck so be prepared to eat outside; the tables laid out are very clean and there is always someone walking around cleaning up food and offering help. The service is great! The Horchata is also great! read more

La Frontera is choice #2 for me and the missus when we need a fix of street food. Street food is supposed to be simple and the tacos at La Frontera are just that, simple and to the point. If you're looking for a Mission style burrito, you will be disappointed. But if you want tasty tacos de chicharron or carne asada, you're in for a treat. Part of the problem here in Arizona is that we have a mix of expectations when it comes to food because there's not much tradition and a healthy influx of people from other areas here. While I'm not sold on the Sonoran Hot Dogs at many other places around here, La Frontera's sister cart (same parking lot) does a great job putting together awesome hot dogs with everything on them. As for tacos, skip the Al Pastor, I still haven't found a place here that makes 'em the way I like (crazy thin sliced off the spit, sweet and succulent, with pineapple). Go for the Carne Asada, Chicharron or the Lengua, anything else and your guess is good as mine as we've been just twice. read more

Without a doubt the best carne asada tacos in all of Phoenix! Enough said.

the carne asada meat was delicious i loved they carne asada tacos and carne asada vampiros i really didnt dig the carne asada burrito but ill be back for the tacos read more

I stopped last night due to convenience, and to once again compare with my new-found jewel for street tacos, Carniceria Guasave at 3500 W. McDowell. Since tripa is one of my faves, I ordered two of those, and one chicharrone. I had to wonder if the tripe had been adequately cleaned, it was that bad. Thankfully, the pork was ok, somewhat like al pastor in presentation, without all of the spice. What's with the shredded cabbage? For $3 per taco, I think they could step-up to cilantro. From now on, I'll only stop here in a dire foodie emergency. read more

Some amazing authentic Mexican tacos! I am a big fan of weird meats like Lengua and Cabeza and they had them! I ordered a cabeza and carne asada burrito and lengua taco and it was amazing! If you want some authentic mexican food, come here and you will not be disappointed! read more

Omg the best Mexican food I've had in AZ. Had the carne asada burrito and was like THAT'S IT! That's what I've been missing! Couldn't even think about not eating the whole thing. Outstanding flavor - guac and salsa are delicious as well but not even needed it was so flavorful on its own. I will make the 50 mile round trip to get this mouth watering food. Don't mind the shabby parking lot. At least there's parking. read more

I would always here my sister talk about going to the frontera and never asked her what it was....so finally my friends called me up and told me they were picking me up and taking me there...the food was great!!! I ate so much I went into a food coma read more

Excellent torta with pulled pork. Big and tasty with good bread. Fast service made it easy to stop by for quick lunch. read more

La Frontera - Amazing food that is the real deal - Food Trucks Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The best tacos you can find in Phoenix! Very sketchy looking on the outside but inside there is magic happening. The only place I know that can make amazing cabeza. Stop by here if you're looking for amazing, authentic Mexican tacos near Downtown Phoenix. read more

(Cash only.) This place is so amazing. People, stop going through those disgusting drive through taco places after the bar, come here! It's local and authentic. Yum! I usually get the tacos, $2 each or something like that. Cheap. Delicious. I am there at least 1-2's a week (not just post bar.) The menu is all in Spanish and they speak it also so, figure it out, lol. read more

Orale! This place is GREAT! Ask the cab/UBER/Lyft driver to swing by this joint late night, after the bar...PERFECT drunky-pants food :)

Absolutely fantastic! Got tacos with lengua, cabeza, and all pastor and they were all perfect. So many places have mediocre lengua, but this was flavorful and moist. Same with the cabeza. Frankly, the al pastor was better than perfect; the marinade had a deep southwestern red chili flavor. It was a little too intense for my wife, but I loved it. Go here! read more

Freshly made authentic mexican food, open late. Near the airport. First stop after landing at PHX at 10pm. Ordered three tacos (carne asada, al pastor, and chicken). Each order gives you two tacos, so I had a total of six. Green sauce, red sauce, lime, and cucumbers came with the tacos. They call out the number in spanish, but luckily counting in spanish isn't that hard. I got the horchata but it wasn't well mixed and was powdery at the bottom. Take it to go or eat at the picnic tables. Saw a bunch of Mexican families there during my visit. read more

Can't go wrong with the food and prices. My favorite are the chicharron and Barbacoa tacos. TRULY DELICIOUS.

I'm from la where we have street tacos everywhere!! This place give me that dtla feel. Seafood, tacos burritos!! You name it. Love this spot! read more

Really good Carnitas and Carne asada tacos. Gotta try the green salsa. Bomb.com. This place is definately a hole in the wall with solid reasonably priced mexican food. Very authentic. read more

I eat a lot of Mexican. It does not get better than this for tacos and the like. Al pastor pork is an "11" as Nigel would say.

THE BEST tacos I have had in the US and Mexico. The carne Asada tacos are incredible and fresh. The meat is always juicy and flavorful. Nothing beats this place and everyone needs to come try it!!! read more

This food truck has the best service, food, and menu. The prices are very affordable, the food is delicious, and they are never unprepared. I've been here multiple times and haven't had a bad experience yet. This business definitely deserves more customers. read more

I went out searching for a Sonoran Dog (my FIRST one), and this was the second place on my list (the first was not open during the day apparently). Others have mentioned the friendly service and that was also my experience -- I didn't see the drink that I wanted and he came out and dug through the ice to find one buried in the back of the chest. The dog was served with "everything" and I am not sure what all that was -- I did not recognize any beans, but it did have bacon, guacamole, tomatoes, onions and a jalapeno nicely grilled (on the side). I'm not sure it had mayo, but there was a container of it on the table to add it if you wanted it (I did). Overall, it was pretty great. Wish they had a truck on my end of town! read more

Hand made tortillas, mexican coke bottles, best tacos in Arizona. Do I need to say more?

Best street tacos in Phoenix. They really are amazing. Who cares if you have to sit next to 16th Street? They are STREET tacos!! The taco itself is heavenly. Spongy soft fresh with NO OIL. The fillings are heavenly. I'm partial to pastor. Hubby likes carnitas. I don't know what else to say but PERFECT. Too bad Yelp doesn't let you put ten stars. I feel completely comfortable there alone. read more

I love this place. I stick out like a sore thumb being the only white guy there every time but I don't care. The food is worth it. The tacos and burritos are amazing. If you come in the evening get the Sonoran hot dogs and they are so bomb!!!! read more

Searching for food near Carolina's which was closed. Saw a line and a group of people eating and thought that must be a good sign. IT WAS GREAT! Had carnitas tacos that are amazingly delicious, chili verde burrito with papas is carnitas with green chilis-yum, the the chorizo torta with fresh avocado and grilled jalapeños - awesome. Very impressed. Great tortillas too. read more

We went to this place because Nogales Hot Dogs wasn't open yet. It was not impressive. I wouldn't call their hot dogs "Sonoran hot dogs." They're more like fully loaded hot dogs that happen to be wrapped in bacon. Tasted like store bought hot dogs with only a little bit of beans, onions, ketchup, mustard, tomatoes on them. The horchata was just okay but came with mostly ice and only a little bit of horchata. The fries were, however, very good. Thick cut fries seasoned with salt and pepper, those were the best part of our meal. read more

We arrived at Phoenix airport at midnight and this place was very convenient because it's close to the airport and open until 2 a.m. I was impressed by the homemade corn tortillas. The tacos we excellent with lots of meat! read more

This is the closest Food place next to my office and I am never disappointed in the fare i get from here. They have all the classic Mexican flavor I'm looking for and it's a classic spot! read more

Best Taco place ever!! Love them will always eat here! Come here 1am and still serving the best tacos !

Delicious street tacos, quesadillas, and burritos. Reasonably priced. They're open late everyday - past midnight until 1 am I think. It's cash only, and they're located in a dicey part of town. But the food is worth it. read more

Stopped by for lunch on our way from the airport and was very pleased to find some great street tacos. I had lengua tacos and my coworker had carnitas. Both were delicious and the salsa was a nice topper. For the soda drinkers out there, they have Mexican Coke! The one with real cane sugar! Only disappointment is that I've been traveling to Phoenix for work for over two years and only just now found this place. read more

Finally found the spot for street tacos. Been here twice in two days. The chicharon tacos are amazing the carnitas burrito is loaded with meat and beans. Barbacoa tacos are so juicy and full of flavor. Feels like I'm in Cali eating at tacos trucks in East La or Santa Ana. Great place for some late night munchies and you can pick up some boot leg DVDs read more

Best street tacos in Phoenix. Don't be jaded by its exterior because the interior is cooking up the most authentic Mexican tacos and burritos around. read more

I happened upon this place by accident!! So glad I did! Awesome Pastor Tacos! I have been back 2 more times and it continues to be consistently good! read more

We are always in search of great burritos and because we travel often it can be hard to find. We found this taco truck through yelp and are so glad we did. Not only do they have great burritos, but there is also a mariscos truck. We haven't tried the mariscos, only because they were closing early so we missed out. Definitely our go to place when we find ourselves in Phoenix. read more
