In the south west side of town, between I-19 and Alvernon, there are a plethora of food trucks it seems, most of which, if not all, have no reviews yet on Yelp. I aim to rectify this, wallet willing. La Paloma is a big, red truck on Palo Verde, just south of Drexel on the west side of the road. They alos have a small hot dog cart next to their big red truck that they plan on using just for the Sonoran dogs. You can't miss it.
I had a Sonoran dog and it was pretty good. Not disappointing. Not spectacular like Hotdog Solution or Ruiz's, but it was good, nonetheless. It was not Chipilon style, toasted on the outside of the bun. She did not ask me if I wanted it with everything as I am accustomed to being asked at every other Sonoran dog truck I've been to, so that might be something to be aware of if you do not like everything on it. Their "everything on it" were the beans, some pico, grilled onion (yes, in addition to diced onions of the pico), mustard and mayo.
I also had a carne asada taco on corn tortilla. This was so-so. Not much flavor to it, I've had better carne many other places.
As you can tell from my photos, some of their menu is extensive. I saw a couple of guys chowing down on a half watermelon each, with the melon cubes in the rind shell. They also have banana splits, apparently. The menu selection is large.
Though I wasn't overwhelmed by the experience, it would still be an OK stop. They do accept credit cards, so that is a plus. read more
