Elton L.

Taco truck on MI??!! So good. Had the arrachera (skirt steak) taco plate which was delicious. Healthy portion - Comes w rice and beans and 3 soft taco wrappers. Also got the lengua (cow tongue) quesadilla - savory, chewy, cheesy goodness. Everything was made from scratch. If you like it spicy, ask for the extra hot sauce on the side - it's got some serious kick. Nick was so friendly and helpful with good suggestions. Yeni, his wife, was the master chef. Worth the drive even if you're not an Islander.

Shrimp, toreado, and pollo tacos
Jacqueline H.

Hands down still the best tacos in the state. So happy they added the Baja fish taco. The owners are so kind and you can taste the love in each bite

So this food truck deserves a lot of recognition. Nestled at a local gas station in Mercer Island -- complete gem. Not just for food, but for above average service. The man whom took my order was passionate about the food and he might be the owner; i'm not sure. However, he walked me thru the menu. He was very descriptive about the food. And above all else made me feel like I was home begging my mom for food (Nostalgic). This restaurant family is doing things for food truck culture that reminds me of Roy choi. Everything is scratch made, Before i got a chance to taste the food I sent my father a text that we need to come here together. Cannot wait to come back and try more. Many thanks!

Camaron (shrimp) Tacos x2. DELICIOUS.
Young Y.

How did I just find this place?! It's so good! TLDR: delicious, fresh, high quality! Food: camaron (shrimp) tacos - my favorite. They're bigger sized tacos in steamed corn tortillas, with a bed of light perhaps pickled coleslaw, 3 juicy plump seasoned shrimp, and a layer of salt spicy creamy perhaps chipotley sauce. Every bite was insanely good. Portion size is great - not a small taco, probably 2 would fill you up. Also had the Asada burrito with no beans. Burrito had the most perfectly crusted burrito top but soft and chewy tortilla, layered with crisped cheese, Coleslaw, soft juicy flavorful rice, and seared beef. Pour some avocado salsa on top and boom. Heaven in every bite. The food here was AMAZING. Service: really cool guy who asked if it was my first time (it was) and told me I'd love this place. Fresh ingredients, made to order, nothing canned. Very welcoming. Parking: easy as it's in the chevron parking lot, but there's a larger lot behind the chevron. This place is legit good. My favorite Mexican food truck I've ever had here in the PNW.

Supporting other 12s while supporting my food baby with the best tacos around.

The best tacos around. Delicious, fresh, and great portions! Also, can't deny supporting other 12s! GO Nick and Yeni! GO HAWKS!

Skirt steak, shrimp, Al pastor, and asada tacos
Eric A.

Nico runs point in the food truck and he is incredibly warm and friendly. It feel like we're good buddies that have known each other for years after a five minute interaction. He is co-owner of the truck with his wife, Jenny. They bring recipes from her hometown of Hidalgo and have named themselves after the bright and vibrant flowers found in the region, bugambilias. I got greedy and ordered 4 tacos. 2 would have filled me up. They are larger than you would expect for a street taco. The tortillas as fried up on the flat top and are fresh. Didn't have any breaks or tears when I folded my tacos up to eat. The shrimp taco has big shrimp. The flavor transported me to a warm beach on a summer day. The slaw salad was perfectly balanced to the slight kick of heat on the shrimp. The Al pastor taco was crispy pieces of pork. It had fresh slices of pineapple on top. It wasn't smothered in sauce which I prefer. The skirt steak taco was a surprise from me. The potato was way better than I was expecting and the slight vinegar of the pickled red onions kept it feeling fresh and light. The asada taco had small and cispy pieces of delicately seasoned meat and thinly sliced onions which were just shy of being caramelized. The horchata was thicker and creamier than the one I was used to. No doubt this was more authentic! Other food trucks need to take note of what bugambilias is doing. The food here is LEVELS above any other place I've had.

Stuffed jalapeno taco, fried cheese taco
Lily D.

This is my new go to eastside taco spot! They have great vegetarian options. Preferred the stuffed jalapeno taco to the fried cheese one. Came out piping hot!! Sauces were delicious.

California Burrito
Emma S.

Nice truck in the chevron parking lot! There were few people when we got there and what looked like quite a few orders lined up ahead of us. It took about 10 minutes for the food to be made but I never mind waiting for good food. The special of the month is a California burrito and I couldn't pass that up! I didn't try the taco my bf had but the burrito was delicious. It was so big that I couldn't finish it but so good that I couldn't put it down. Too bad it's just a special and not on the menu permanently!

Isidros Food Truck

I visited Isidros at a booth at Chateau Ste. Michelle so perhaps that experience was not as good as…read morethe food truck. Most reviews seem great, but I was very disappointed. I ordered the Tijuana Burrito with chicken. It is supposed to come with rice, cilantro, onions, lettuce, cheese and beans. Unfortunately, it was almost all rice and really bland. There was just one bite of chicken, almost none of their homemade beans and some lettuce. Then they did not seem to have any cheese, but did have some sour cream (maybe they ran out of cheese, but should have told people). The burrito was $19 and no excuse to pack it full of rice. This was really disappointing, the food vendors here are usually excellent (my wife was smarter and had a sandwich from Purple and loved it). Perhaps the tacos or Baja Bowl are better.

Decided to try here for lunch as it has sort of a residence near one of my work sites in downtown…read moreBellevue. It's parked in a lot that's within walking distance of my site and I imagine quite a few other places as when I would look out the window, I'd see a few people ordering each time. I decided to go with the "Street tacos" - It comes with not 3 but 4 tacos, on corn tortillas (instant points for this) and the usual other accompaniments - radish, onion, sauce. I got the 2 asada and 2 Soy chorizo as you can mix and match. The asada was good, not the best I've had when it comes to tacos and the seasoning I've had with comparable tacos, but the soy chorizo was really good. Very impressive flavor. It was about $16 I believe so about $4 a taco, not the most egregious I've seen in pricing, but decent. I also got bag of tortilla chips free, but they did give any salsa. The ones included for the tacos also were pretty small. That all said the food is decent and if you're looking for some food truck tacos and see Isidros, they'll do the trick.

I am an absolute fan of chipotle enchiladas. They're warm - as far as spice level - and I switch up the protein choice being equally a fan of chicken and beef. They also will provide one of each as well. Nice portions, bursting with flavor it is just so good! I am also a fan of their giant margaritas that drink easy and go to the head easier. I typically only drink these when I want to accomplish nothing for the day. I am particularly fond of their cucumber one as it is less sweet. The service here has always been a delight. Whether we come on a quiet afternoon or a busy evening, whether it is my friend and I or a group of us we are always treated warmly and kindly. As far as price point, it is the same price point as the vast majority of Mexican restaurants in King County with the exception of the one Mexican restaurant in Bellevue at Lincoln Tower which makes every other restaurant look super inexpensive! All in all I am a huge fan of this place.
