This place is d*mn great. 206-931-7220 phone order. Get anything with carne asada.

Really enjoy visiting this food truck regularly, especially for the Adobada Pork Tacos!

Done Hoping For improvement. Prices higher portions smaller quality poorer. Went in tonight and when I got home my Mexican plate was the smallest I've ever received.. read more

Tasty and authentic Mexican food at great prices prepared very quickly by a friendly staff. The chicken tacos al pastor are ridiculously good. read more

Carne asada burritos: the distribution of the ingredients (beans, rice, carne asada) was disappointing. The meat was all stuffed into a corner of the burrito. The remaining 80% of the burrito is just bland beans and rice. Fish taco: the fish was overcooked and kind of stale. Veggie taco: just a bunch of green peppers, although this one is more forgivable because ive never had good veggie tacos anyway Good sauces though. read more

Absolutely delicious Mexican food! I had the chicken burrito and my fiance enjoyed the chicken quesadilla. Filled our bellies for under 18 dollars and that's with a 3 dollar tip. Lucky for us they are located .1 miles from home! read more

Who knew a food truck in the parking lot of a Shell station on Lake City Way would have the Best burritos in town! Why this place doesn't have a line like El Camion is beyond me because the food her is better! The staff is so kind and the food is HELLA SOLID! The breakfast burritos are very good and it's hands down the best carne Asada burrito you're gonna get in Seattle. Pro Tip: ask for the spicy chipotle sauce it's a game changer. Love these guys! Worth driving to and the price is killer. read more

It was amazing. The burritos and the tacos were outstanding. If you want a meal that will fill you up with goodness this is the place to go! read more

Decent tacos. Had the fish $2.50, chicken and beef $2.00 with hot salsa. Fast friendly service. No complaints, I'll be back. read more

I work a couple of streets away so I eat lunch at the Monarca truck 2-3 times a week. The food is as consistent as can be -- haven't had a bad meal yet. The burritos are a decent value at $7.50, and the chicken, veggies and pork are all prime options. For a little more dough the mexican plate has a big ol' pile of rice, beans, avocado, etc with 4 mini tortillas. Because I'm unreasonable and forgetful, I always end up getting a burrito instead, but the plate has my coworker's seal of approval. The employees who work the truck are super friendly and kind. Probably the nicest people you'll find in the parking lot of a Shell on a busy road, which totally adds to the whole experience. Tasty food in an unexpected spot, even with a little plastic table nearby if you want to eat there. Good stuff. Party on, Monarca. read more

The tacos here are good, the prices are okay. They are 1.70 for each taco and the lengua tacos are 2.50. So everything went up, when I looked at the pictures with the menu it showed a different price but the pictures are old. read more

I've been to this food truck twice. 1. Got a breakfast burrito. It was delicious. 2. Got a carna Asada burrito. It was amazing. Five stars. My whole way home I was thinking I'm gonna come here all the time! Then when I got home I had the terrible shits so I'll decrease to three stars. It was so good that I'll prob risk it one more time but only on a night where I plan on staying home lest there be unfathomable consequences. read more

I'm always skeptical of food trucks (even though they're usually quite good) but Monarca Express is really close to my house so I figured I should try them out. So far I've had tacos and burritos and they were all excellent. I will come back regularly for sure. read more

Based on all the solid reviews, I must have gone here on a bad day. Hands down the most flavorless tacos I've eaten at food truck. I tried the carnitas tacos and it was shredded pork with absolutely no flavor. the carne asada was not much better. my wife got the carnitas burrito and had a few bites then threw it out. We also had the horchata which was very watery and weak. I've had Los Chilangos, El Camino, and Rancho Bravo recently and they all blow this place away. I hate to be the only one that gives this place a bad review but I've nothing good to say about them. read more

This place was so underwhelming. The meat was dry, the rice was blah. I won't be going back.

I ordered from door dash and it said tacos $6.00, being taco(s) if figured more than 1 at least 2 especially at $6.00. well I was wrong, so I got 2, (cause I ordered 2 orders) little street tacos for $12.00!! Plus the fee for door dash I paid a total of $18.01 for 2 little street tacos. read more

The Carne Asada burrito was great, it was good quality beef. The spicy pork taco that they gave me complementary because I was curious, was amazing. I definitely recommend you try this affordable and tasty treat! read more

It's a taco truck and it rocks. Great reasonable priced eats. I'm a big fan of the tacos, but my son swears that the carne asana quesadilla is the thing to get. Super friendly staff and fast service. read more

Unassuming truck in a Shell station parking lot, but they make some delicious food! I love the friendly, family run operation, and their food is delicious. I'm a big fan of the adobada (spicy pork) burrito and the tacos are simple and tasty. The salsa is on the mild side, but I certainly won't hold that against them. read more

If you want tasty and quick Mexican food, Monarca Experss is excellent!! We call in our order and it is always ready to go. The food is consistently good. The pork sopes are my favorite and the chicken fajitas are my husbands favorite. read more

I love this place. Amazing food, such great service and nice people, huge bang for the buck - seriously, the best food to grab on your commute home. Can't wait to go back, try the lengua tacos. read more

My absolute favorite. Love their salsas, pork carnitas, chicken, and spicy pork all rock. I love to get just bean, cheese, and avocado tacos too, always good. Super friendly staff. read more

Great taco truck, I've been to all of them and it's the only one you can get chorizo con juevos at! Tacos, and burritos are awesome as well! Will definitely be a regular customer!! read more

Very good and very cheap. Go for the fish tacos, they're under 2 bucks each and quite good. For the price this is one of the best taco trucks around and the best in the north end for sure. read more

Love this taco wagon! My fav in the area! Great prices and great food! Can't go wrong eating here!

Good taco truck fare. Nothing fancy about it, just tasty tacos and burritos and whatnot. I like the asada plate. Super affordable, quick, and consistently satisfying. read more

Great food at great prices Dining area is small and only outdoors. People are very polite and provide great service. read more

Great Mexican food truck! Fast service, good food, reasonable prices. I've been a couple times and had asada tacos and some sort of burrito. Both left me feeling very satisfied! read more

Inconsistent but consistently decent. The first and second time I got their carnitas they were seasoned perfectly moist and delicious. The third time and hence forth they have been dry and almost flavorless. Just dry shredded pork. I've had much better more authentic tacos and Mexican fare in Washington but for the area it's the best I can find. Generally most everything they serve is decent. read more

iss good, reliable, a little on the expensive side for taco trucks, but c'mon, they are cooking in a truck! nice outdoor seating.

I had the carne asada burrito. It was fantastic. The meat was very flavorful. My only suggestion is that they expand the salsa options. They just asked if I wanted medium or hot. I said both. Neither of them were very hot. Expand the salsa selection, & I think this would be a 4.5 or 5 star. read more

Some of the best burritos I've had in Seattle. Flavorful steak and excellent cheese. The people working are super friendly. I love this place. read more

Insanely good sopas .. love tacos pork.. the hurache was decent not great... the bkfst burritos were awsome .....

I am so sad to write this review. I love this place and I would like it to get back to the quality work they did. My husband and I use to eat twice a week from here and now, with new workers, we literally hesitate to go there. Food use to take bit to be cooked as was freshly made to order, now I think these new workers, pre cook the meat and it waits there..my husband got beef quesadilla in 5 min or less, which use to take about 15 min to make, and he got food poisoning, that was out first bad experience with the new faces after that we did not go for a while unless were the people we knew. Today I went again to get chicken quesadilla, and was ready in 2 min, which made me very nervous, but I took it and when got home saw that was very poorly made, clearly with precooked meat, cheese was still hard, did not melt, and was a big portion in the middle not all over to glue and melt on meat...I am paneling it at home and writing this as I am so sad and I want the old quality back. I hope you guys will see this and fix it..educate them and control their work, please! read more

The carne asada is some of the best I've ever had, especially in the sopes! Extremely reasonable prices and proximity to home make this place dangerous (in the best way). read more

This spot is consistently great! Tacos, burritos, sopes and the homemade salsas are amazing and tasty! Plus the ladies who work there are friendly and seem to always turn food out quick without losing quality. One of my favorite taco trucks in all of Seattle read more

I live nearby, and come here every couple of weeks. Good mexican food, super nice staff. I am a big fan of the wet burrito and the simple tacos. read more
