    3 choice taco and bowl
    Evonne C.

    Was at the first thursday of the month market and stopped by the food truck! It was popular amongst the other trucks and I got their 3 choice tacos! They were a bit pricey ($15 for 3 tacos) but they tasted pretty great! I got the pollo asado, cochinita pibil, and carne asada all super delicious. My favorite was the carne asada as the grilled beef was super flavorful! Their burrito and bowls also look super good and will definitely try next time!

    Solid food truck in the city if you are looking for something quick to eat! They have some interesting items, including the salbutes which I never heard of but are basically corn tortilla tacos with melted cheese. I got the cauliflower tacos as a vegetarian, and they were nice. Cauliflower was cooked and spiced nicely, but nothing too amazing. The corn tortilla and the melted cheese however were really good. The salsas they gave on the side were also spicy. They are a bit pricey however for two okay sized tacos, so if you are just getting an order of salbutes make sure you aren't that hungry or have some snacks to complement. Good concept of a Mexican street food truck otherwise!

    The 4 basic choices for filling

    Long lines where they were a little slow to take orders, but fast to make your food once you did order. High quality and tasty for sure. Though I spent over $15 for 3 tacos that weren't very filling, so I was hungry like an hour later. Pollo Asado Taco: Surpassingly tasty for grilled chicken. Really enjoyed whatever sauce they used. And the big piece of avocado and tomato were nice too, almost like have a club sandwich in taco form. Cochinita Pibil Taco: The most unique and flavorful of the tacos. The pork was so tender and the spices were great. Dressed only with pickled onions and cilantro, this meat really didn't need much more since it was delicious in its own right. Carne Asada Taco: I'm a fan of carne asada, but so many places make it too thick and/or soggy. They made it just right here with thin cuts charred nicely and cut into large squares. I think if I was going to try a burrito or quesadilla, this would be my meat choice. Chipotle could really learn something from them.

    Mestizo was parked outside Salesforce today and decided to grab a bite. Prices are tad bit on the high end for a food truck. I mean $15 for two tacos is a little steep, don't you think? I ordered some chicken Salbutes which I thought was pretty tasty but a little on the greasy side. It had pickled onions, avocado and tomatoes with a tangy sauce. The fried handmade taco shells would have been delicious if it was not soaked up in grease. Overall, I would have liked the food better if it was a tad bit cheaper and not so greasy.

    Mestizo is a new food truck in the town that you must try, delicious food and they serve authentic Mexican food, the staff is super friendly and helpful, highly recommend it!!.

    Pollo asado bowl

    I grabbed lunch from the Mestizo truck at the Winter Walk in downtown SF. My pollo asado bowl was prettily composed and delicious. They were very generous with the avocado and with the juicy chicken.

    Wow. In a food truck park of mostly good options, after you eat here there will be no other options except Mestizo. I had panuchos with carne aside (+lime juice and hot sauce). They basically were the equivalent of a mic drop. Props to these people. They're going places in life. I will be back.

    Platanos and veggie tacos
    Christina M.

    Tried this truck for the first time on Saturday at Spark Social and glad I did! I got the veggie tacos and platanos. The platanos were perfectly cooked and came with a delicious crema/sour cream sauce. The tacos were so so good, the tortillas were fried and filled with beans, then the toppings were flavorful veggies. Will certainly be back again for more!

I love their food--the Kebapche. Delicious! Bittersweet because they just announced on IG that they are ceasing their food truck operation.

When I came here with my friends last time, I remember having a good experience so decided to pay them another visit. Their menu looked smaller with different items this time around. I saw a lot of people ordering the Yogurt Marinated Chicken ($17.00 + tax), so I decided to order that. +Even though the grilled Mary's Chicken looked dry, it was moist and juicy. Never thought of yogurt as a marinade, but hey it works! +Organic spring mix salad was fresh and lightly dressed w/vinaigrette. +Lutenitsa, a Bulgarian spread made with roasted red peppers and other veggies, was flavorful and not spicy. -Chicken was burnt in a lot of parts: Seems like it was left too long on the grill -Herb polenta cake was soft, but bland. Other items I tried during my last visit: +Black Sea Fisherman's Stew +Baklava Side notes: 1.) Check the Presidio's website for their schedule: https://presidio.gov/explore/park-attractions/presidio-pop-up-schedule 2.) Enjoy your meal on the picnic tables or lawn. 3.) Paid parking lots: Bring coins b/c there's a surcharge for credit cards. *Verdict: If the chicken wasn't burnt, it would have been a winner winner chicken dinner.

    TWICE AT GOLDEN GATE PARK…read more In the past 11 months I've been to two exhibitions at De Young Museum. After the exhibitions instead of eating at the cafe in the museum I would look at food trucks at Golden Gate Park. After those two exhibitions I've ordered food from this food truck. The first time I came to Cochinita was in September after the exhibition featuring photos taken by Paul McCartney during the rise of The Beatles. The item that stood out from the truck was the elote tots. They were Mexican-style corn kernels top over tater tots. I am a sucker for tater tots. With sour cream and sauce I was worried if the tater tots would be soggy. The tater tots were still crispy. The complimenting textures of corn and tater tots made this a satisfying dish. The second time I came to the food truck at Golden Gate Park was the last day of exhibition "Monet and Venice." I was hoping to see if the elote tater tots were available; they weren't. I scanned up and down the items available listed on the food truck. One item that intrigued me was the tradicional - a plate with two types of fried tortilla. The panucho is regular fried while the salbut is fried with a puffy appearance. I love fried food, but these two tortillas weren't oily. These two kinds of tortilla fried dishes provided different textures to the toppings. I never ate Yucatan food before ordering food at Cochinita. If you are tasting a new cuisine you never had before ordering from a restaurant versus a food truck is different. Whereas in a restaurant while sitting you ask for recommendation whereas at a food truck while you're standing you go with your gut feeling. From my two experiences at the Cochinita food truck I ordered items I never had before and I enjoyed both of them. If I go to the Chochinita food truck at Golden Gate Park again and see elote tots, panucho, and salbut what will I order next time? I'm going to order an item I never had before.

Open air, a mix of food trucks, people hanging out, dogs everywhere, and that easy San Francisco energy where you can show up however you are and it fits. It never feels like a production, just a good place to land. We have eaten our way through a decent chunk of the trucks at this point, and that is half the fun. One day it is something messy and indulgent, the next it is lighter, but it always hits. Grabbing a drink, finding a spot at the picnic tables, and slowly settling in as the place fills up is kind of the rhythm. It is social without being overwhelming, lively without being chaotic. What keeps us coming back is how consistent it feels in the best way. It is easy, flexible, and always a good time whether you stay for an hour or lose an entire afternoon there. It is the kind of spot that turns into a routine before you even realize it, and honestly, we are not mad about it.

There are two different sections across the street from each other, and both have plenty to choose from. They also have mini golf, fire pits, and larger cabanas you can rent, which is great for birthdays or group events. It's all outdoors, so definitely come on a nice SF day. Good food, drinks, lots of space, and a really fun atmosphere. I've been back several times and will definitely keep coming!

The wait for the food isn't very long at all! I've gone twice now and haven't been disappointed. The smell of the al pastor being cooked on a spit and sliced right next to the line is amazing. Enough to lure you in a couple blocks away. I've gotten the Quesadilla Hawaiana and al pastor tacos so far. The flavor of the al pastor is very smoky and savory, which pairs well with the sweet pineapple that comes with it! I think the sweetness and savoriness has a close to perfect balance. I was very satisfied with the amount of meat they put on both the quesadilla and taco. I also got half horchata and half fresa which was bomb! They also have a self serve salsa + veggie garnishes that includes bags and salsa contrainers for to-go. It included 2 different salsa verdes (which I believe they might've been a raw and roasted tomatillo salsa), salsa roja, and a spicy (maybe habanero) salsa. Plenty of veggies to pack as well, like cucumber, pickled veggies, lime, and onion & cilantro. There's a few outdoor tables with seating next to the salsa bar aswell. Will be one of my go-to places for mexican food now.
