4+ taco truck in the Vallejo area that opens on the late side. I was in the area for work and couldn't decide what I wanted for dinner and I didn't know the area. I waited so long that most of the places is closed up. Luckily, this place was open late which is great. Came here and ordered a few tacos. Ordering was easy and the folks were chill and friendly. The prices were great as well. Ate my tacos in the car and headed back to the hotel I was staying at.

Burrito was good. Second time coming got a super burrito, but I'm surprised it didn't come with sour cream. I guess you gotta add it. I thought it would've came with it. A little bit disappointed on that part but overall it's pretty good. so if you like sour cream and a burrito, make sure you ask for it.

Chicken super burrito. No rice. Shredded chicken always juicy.

The gentleman here are very handsome and very nice. Always nice and quick and the burritos always wrapped perfectly. People should definitely tip more because it boosts morale. Sitting outside is nice especially when it's hot. If not you can always be in your car with the air conditioning. The biggest burritos in Vallejo La Jolla has their huge La Jolla burrito. I just got the regular super burrito and I'm very impressed. I'll see you guys again soon.

This taco truck is open until 1am! Past 12 midnight and 3rd in line. It is located in a parking lot. We were amazed by the super burrito. It tastes good, reasonably priced as well.

Steak and shrimp super burrito!! So good the flavor of the steak and shrimp along with the rice beans onions and cilantro

The Food is delicious, the service is great . Always greeted with a smile love the customer service here ! Thank you!

I haven't been to this spot in a minute and I wanted a burrito so here I am. I came in and ordered their legendary La Joya Super Burrito which is $20, $23 if you get a premium meat. When I used to go here in high school, I remember the huge super burritos only being $7 lol, but I guess inflation had to hit sometime lol. Still regardless, the food here hasn't experienced a drop off in quality especially the burrito. The La Joya super burrito is as long as my forearm lol. It's perfect for 2 people or you can save it for a lunch and dinner. So you're still getting a bang for your buck. The truck is in a small alleyway with limited parking availability, but surprisingly this place wasn't busy when I came. Try it out if you like. :)

Worst customer service ever!!! Would NOT RECOMMEND!!! they charge your card extra even after you spend more than 20 dollars. You order a super burrito and they ONLY give you two sauces for it. Then say they will have to charge your card again for more sauces, plus the extra charge to run your card. I would NOT do business with the truck ever again!

Do they only accept cash?

They accept Apple Pay, credit cards, debit cards and cash. They do charge a small fee for using cards/Apple Pay though.

Are they really open until midnight?

Monster sized burritos, satisfying eats, actual REAL avocado slices instead of weird guacamole,…read morelots and lots of outdoor seating, plus, ...wait for it.....access to an INDOOR restroom, all with the glorious experience of a Mexican food truck? You'll find it at the ultimate Taqueria in Vallejo when you visit La Piñata Taqueria. I paid exactly $20 (after tax) for a ridiculously sized burrito that included EXTRA ASADA and some avocado, that as a whole, was nothing to laugh at. In 2026, this might be the ultimate deal you will come across without the requirement of a coupon. Parking is readily available, and you'll notice there's always people waiting for food: a sign the food is worth coming for. My food came with a small complimentary side of pickled carrots and peppers, some onions, two salsas, and a small bag of chips. This really truly is the best in Vallejo.

La Piñata has been my favorite taco truck in Vallejo for years. Even after moving away, I still…read morecompare every taco spot to this one. I used to come here after school exams for burritos and tacos. You can't go wrong with either, but I highly recommend the suadero, their rose meat. It is easily the best thing on the menu. The burritos used to be about 12 dollars and are now around 16, but the quality and portion still make it worth it. I recently came back after about a year and it tasted exactly the same. Their service is always quick despite the long line of people there. Their complimentary pickled onions, grilled onions, and carrots along with their homemade sauces really take the burritos and tacos to another level. They have added more seating so you can eat there fresh and hot. Parking is still tight with only a few spots nearby, but it is worth it for the food.

Came in to check out Taqueria El Pelayo's new brick-and-mortar location! I've tried their food…read moretruck across from Nations plenty of times in the past and have always really enjoyed their food, so I was excited to check out their new location--especially since it's closer to my house too! I came in around 4pm during their week-long $2 taco special, so it was pretty busy. The lobby is a bit small, but they have a decent-sized parking lot along with street parking. They also have an outdoor eating area with a few benches and a covered top, which I really like! Like I mentioned, the lobby is on the smaller side, but I think it works perfectly for their walk-up-and-order style of service. The decor is simple but still has a fun and lively feel to it. Their menu has a good variety, just like their food truck--and maybe even more? I could be wrong. LOL. The staff was super nice, and they seemed pretty quick with getting everyone's orders out, especially considering how busy they were. The one thing I think they could improve is adding some type of shade or pull-down window covering to block out the sun, and maybe some A/C if they don't already have it. The sun was BEAMING directly into the lobby, and since the space is already pretty small, it got quite hot inside while we waited to order and for our food to come out. Definitely something that would make waiting inside a lot more comfortable, especially on warmer days. Overall, the food was good per usual, and I'm happy to see Taqueria El Pelayo now has a brick-and-mortar location! I definitely look forward to coming back for more good eats.

I supported this truck for years and it led to my boyfriend becoming a regular customer here. He…read morecomes 1-2 times a week and their food is pricy so it's always $30- $40 a visit. We both had long days at work so he stopped by on his way home to grab dinner. Recently my go-to has been their crunchy asada tacos so he grabbed me two of them, and confirmed that he wanted everything on them (cheese, onion and cilantro). When he got home we saw that my tacos were plain- not what he ordered. He called them to let them know of the issue and they told him that he could get drive the 15 minutes back to the truck and pick up sides of onion and cilantro. Bringing the tacos that they messed up on and getting it replaced with a fresh correct order was not an option. THEY didn't make the tacos as advertised/ordered, and their solution to fixing the error THAT THEY MADE was for the customer to drive back to the truck to get the toppings that THEY forgot. After using gas and spending time going back to the truck for the toppings, they then expected us drive back home and sprinkle them on cold old tacos. Keep in mind that these tacos are six dollars each. To add more insult to injury they cut costs by skimping on the cheese. This is a dish that I've ordered quite a few times so I know how it usually looks. This time around it looks like they sprinkled it on the corner of one of the tacos to give that melted/crusty cheese look, but there was barely any inside. He said there were people working that he hadn't seen there before so I'm not sure if that's what's contributing to the piss poor service, but whatever the case the solution that they gave for an error that they made is ridiculous.
