Homemade tortillas!!!!!! Amazing food, great portions. We devoured the quesadillas, tamales, and tacos so fast that I forgot to take pictures. Definitely worth coming back to Buttonwillow en route to/from SoCal. There's outdoor seating under a tin roof too!! read more

We have Family in Long Beach so we travel I5 quite a bit. Been doing this for several years now. We are from Salinas Ca so we have a higher level of expectation for Mexican food. Everything we have tried has been excellent. It is a food truck so stop on the way in or to use the restroom. They are very quick, always have a smile and we have never had any surprises that weren't in a positive way. We have tried most anything I know of on the route for us and this is our 100% favorite. We typically stop there up and down! There is a grass area near there if you are traveling with pets and water available. (Pick up after your pets, always don't be a ...) Ambiance is a covered patio with picnic tables, everyone we have ever met while dining has been super friendly and almost always has not been their first time there. Love this place. Honestly will probably be there tomorrow! read more

Whenever I stay at Buttonwillow, CA, I noticed this small taco trailer with a nice covered patio next to it. I never have any interest in food trucks or trailers. Why-because in general they suck! BUT La Jalicience 2 at 20641 Tracy Ave, Buttonwillow, CA 93206 has one thing I normally don't see-a constant amount of customers regardless of time or day. My curiosity got the better of me so on my way out of town I visited it. The grounds were clean and the trailer was well maintained. I met two young ladies who were polite and had a great attitude. One told me that they use the freshest quality ingredients. The Agua de Jamaica (hibiscus tea) is what they are known for. OK, she sold me on a breakfast burrito, ham and potato. Absolutely the best I've tried with green sauce. The Tamarindo Aqua Fresca was unlike anything I've tried-excellent! I looked at the other customers plates of tacos, burritos and other items. Everything looked fabulous! OK, so here is a first- I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Taco Trailer. Next time I'm through Buttonwillow, I'm definitely going to stop there and enjoy a meal. read more

Love this place. Spicy. Authentic. Friendly. Free bean covered chips. Weirdly - never a line.

This place is a gem run by total sweethearts. We ordered tacos and pupusas, and jamaica to drink. The portions are generous and the quality is excellent. The fact that we weren't the only ones getting lunch here in 100-degree heat says a lot. Well worth the stop. read more

Good food. Would recommend. Friendly service wide selection of food options. Credit card fee applies so cash is better

Food was amazing, service was excellent, had delicious tamales, Jamaica was fresh, had something for everyone, and there was a shaded space outside to eat with our kids and dogs. A great stop to take a break from the highway. read more

Stopped at La Jaliciense #2 in Buttonwillow and it was absolutely worth it. We ordered two breakfast burritos, pupusas, and horchata -- everything was excellent. The burritos were fresh and flavorful, the pupusas were perfectly cooked, and the horchata was just right. The people working here were very friendly and welcoming, and there's nice seating available so you can relax and enjoy your food. Honestly, it's way better than grabbing McDonald's or anything else in the area. Super authentic, delicious food and great service -- I'd definitely come back whenever I'm passing through read more

Very good food - got Al pastor burrito supreme and tacos (cabeza, lengua, birria). All the meats were tender and tasty - my personal favorite was cabeza. Burrito was generously sized with a lot of meat. Corn tortillas are made in house. The have a clean covered outdoor area with seating and tables that was nice to sit at. read more

I wish I would've taken a photo BUT THIS FOOD WAS AMAZING! My husband and I were looking for some food on our way back home to NorCal and we found this taco truck and it was spectacular. The staff are so incredibly kind and friendly. We got 2 el pastor tacos and the tortillas are hand made! The meat was tender and the flavor was so delicious!! The salsa is spicy but so flavorful. I wish I would have gotten the el pastor in my torta as well! I got an asada torta and the meat didn't disappoint it was still amazing but the el pastor stole the show. The torta was still SOO GOOD! My husband said it tastes like how old school tortas used to taste like his grandma used to make. Simple but packed with flavor. Overall an amazing experience and this will now be a must visit when we come to visit SoCal! read more

A new and very clean taco truck in Buttonwillow -- a nice lady working at the window. I had the asada, lengua and carnitas tacos. Surprisingly, they came with a free bean tostada. Also some radishes. Different salsas were offered, and I had the hot one. These were my preferred kind of tacos, basically meat, onions and cilantro. Very tasty salsa. The tacos were well-stuffed with meat, and served on single, thicker homemade corn tortillas. read more

Amazing authentic tacos. What a little gem. I had carne asada tacos, my husband had the quesatacos (also carne asada). Incredibly flavorful. I don't normally eat tortillas (carbs) but these tortillas were way too good to pass up. The only reason we didn't give it 5 starts is because the can of diet coke was warn (we did get ice after we tasted it) and "flat." We will definitely stop here again next time we're passing through. read more

This place is great! Very quaint with fast & friendly service. Some landscape planters are around where I rested my dogs, we ate at the patio area around the food truck. Protect your eyes when the giant trucks roll pass, the gusts of air are dusty. I got a carne asada torta & it was delicious & of a generous portion, tasty & soft meat. read more

Def a must stop. read more

We had the asada tacos and burritos and they were ok. The meat wasn't seasoned well. It tasted bland. The ladies were nice but didn't like that the cashier that handles the money also was in the back cooking helping the other cook out. Not very sanitary for my taste. Won't be coming back. read more
