When in Chula Vista...MUST visit Mr. Adobada! So happens to be TACO TUESDAYS $1.50 specials. Not that their prices aren't cheap, their tacos are normally under $2.50. We were starving when we arrived to town. Thank gosh for the nice weather or we would be roasting in the sun. There was about 4 orders ahead of us. It wasn't too long of a wait. The girl at the window was really nice. We ordered the following for our late lunch: Note: Tacos comes with "Everything: Onions, Cilantro & Guacamole" 01. 5-Tacos Pollo (Chicken) w/ everything $2.25 - 4 Stars - Big chunks of chicken and seasoned, the tortillas was so good. 02. 4-Tacos Asada (Beef) $2.40 - 5 Stars - Perfectly seared and juicy cuts of beef. One of my FAVE meats on their menu. 03. 2-Adobada (Spicy Pork) $2.25 - 3 Stars - Our least fave meat from them. I prefer other Al Pastors from other restaurants. I think it was just the taste and "bright red" color of the meat that threw me off. The taste was mild. You might like it, it's one of their popular meats. 04. Vampiro (Mix of Adobada/Asada) $2.45 - 4 Stars - The Tortilla was grilled to a crispy shell and layered on the bottom, meat mix in the middle, a thin layer of crispy cheese and then another crispy shell on top. This was good. Order it if you love a crunchy taco. 05. Quesataco (Mix of Adobada/Asada) $8.50 - 5 Stars - Okay, this was a cheese-based crisp that looked like a tortilla. Realized it was KETO friendly since it's only made with Cheese. The stuff it with the 2 meat mix with the works (Onions, Cilantro, Guacamole). Delicious and so BIG! Definitely a shared item if you order tacos too. 06. Mr. Adobada Fries (Small $8.50/Large $13.50) - 4 Stars - This was so HUGE, we didn't need to order the Large. It came with the Asada (tons of it) on the huge tray of skinny fries, topped with Cheese, Guacamole and Sour Cream. This feed 7 of us. The small size would've been PLENTY. If you like your Asada on the charred side, just ask them to grill your Asada a bit longer. You'll love it more charred! VERDICT: MUST TRY if you are in the area. Everything is amazing except my heart just couldn't flex for their Adobada. Try everything on the menu! Ask for their FREE Beans, Grilled Onions & Jalapenos!!! CUSTOMER SERVICE: Nice staff, everyone had gloves and masks on. LOCATION: They are literally sharing a parking lots with an actual Taco/Mexican restaurant. Mr. Adobada's customers can use the restaurant's restroom (plus if you needed one). Their "RED" truck is parked on H Street, you'll see them from the street. PARKING: Always packed but you can park in the surrounding plazas to the left and right of their locations. Parking in the back as well. read more

Mannn the most underrated Birria spot! Their tacos are huge and amazing ! The gentleman at the window helped me and explained the menu to me. My wife got stuffed carne asada potato and she loved it. They have available seating which is rare for a food truck. Definitely coming back here read more

This food truck makes some pretty good al pastor. I had a pair of them for an early dinner at $2.25 a piece. They were good and the al pastor marinade was tasty, but the pork meat was a little on the dry side. They put a good amount of it on each taco. The guacamole sauce was good and so were the rest of the ingredients that came on the tacos, including the salsa. If they can find a way to keep the meat juicy that would be just grand. They lady who took my order was very nice and the man who made my tacos was cool. Outside the truck, the offer a nice salsa bar and tented seating, which is very nice of them to offer. read more

I went 2 days ago, the food was just OK, I didn't like the ambiance, the music they play is super LOUD! And also something I didn't like was that the food prices are NOT POSTED, I believe that's illegal. My Adobada quesadilla was around $12, the flavor was MEH, the portion was good. Next time I will go to Tacos El Gordo, better flavor, more confortable and prices are posted. read more

I been to this taco truck so many times and is the best. Does anyone know what happened to them? We keep trying to find their new location and can't find them. We can't find tacos like this no where else. Best tacos best service . read more

Cool lil vibey taco truck with seating area. Adobada and Al pastor tacos here is valid Forsure

Food was cold and they wanted to close asap rather then serve us. They said they were not serving asada then last minute they said tehh were. Taco El Gordo Tacos read more

Not just adobada! They make the best tacos in town! I stopped riding my motorcycle to get tacos in Tijuana once I found Mr. Adobada. Their meat is fresh and their truck is CLEAN. They will take the time to make your tacos just how you like them. They have free beans, grilled onions and grilled peppers. Although they also sell carne asada fries and California burritos, their menu is authentic very well served. I lived in Mexico half my life and these tacos are on par with the best tacos I had in my village. Just look for the red food truck and also try their Birria food truck. Good for groups, to go and catering too read more

Mr Adobada - Food Trucks Near Me - Chula Vista, California

We were craving some street tacos and came across this food truck. It was all decked out and super chic! Very clean area and the food was amazing! The adobada tacos were delicious but what made my night was the Papa Loca (a baked potato with cheese, meat and guacamole)!!!! Definitely will be returning and recommend it all the way!! read more

The truck is stationed at Sabor de la Baja. Prices are not listed on the menu on the side of the truck. Cali burrito was $14 and some change, and a quesadilla with carne asada was $12 and some change. Both lacked flavor. The tortillas were not fresh (stiff). The quesadilla had spicy guacamole with pieces of raw chili peppers, onions and cilantro (not listed in the description) my grandson doesn't eat guacamole or spicy food. The burrito was tasteless and below basic. Super bummed! Should have gone to Roberto's! Also, the restrooms were horribly dirty- and that's according to my 16 year old grandson! read more

I don't understand how you can make tacos taste this bad and the name itself is Mr.adobada . Spent $48 and some change for 8 tacos and 1 mulita . Ridiculously overpriced for terrible tacos. Should've gone to tacos El gordo a few feet down the street. Tacos are street size tacos and they're charging for regular taco size. Please save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Went last night and asked for more salsa because they don't give you enough and they said we have you enough your gonna have to pay to get more salsa!!! WTH WHO DIES THAT??? Never going back! What a joke!! read more

If you want Adobada (El Pastor) tacos this is one of the best spots. Always bomb and if you go on Taco Tuesday it is a good deal.

My best friend and I were craving some tacos for the night. We stumbled upon this location, what caught our attention were these nice patio lights they had for decor. We get there and the vibe was very welcoming and uplifting with good music playing. I went ahead and placed my order of 3 tacos de adobada w/everything, 2 tacos de tripa extra cooked w/everything and a agua de jamaica. When I get called to get my food and requested their spiciest salsa which was mango habanero. I sat down and prepared my tacos with lime and salsa. That first bite I take was intense, so much flavor from the adobada meat and that burst from the mango habanero salsa. It was heaven in my mouth, I didn't want it to end. But unfortunately my stomach couldn't take anymore tacos after the five I ate. I'm going again today for round two though hehe! I highly recommend this location! I wish avocados weren't so expensive. Cause that would have made the tacos whole. Also, great prices! read more

Def will be back! Got the Cali burrito, steak and pork tacos and they are to die for! Great service! A must try! Fresh and hot !

This has definitely become my go-to Taco Truck. I am in love with the Adobada Tacos. Tuesdays are my favorite because it's Taco Tuesday and the Adobada tacos are $0.99 each. The sauces are amazing and I love how you get the grilled onions and peppers. Right down the street from that Tacos El gordo place but so much better. 5 Stars. read more

The flavor went down tremedously, it legit felt like there was no love put into the food,as well as the price was way too high for what its worth. I would have recommended this truck a few months back but now theres definatley better spots out there. The service was typical truck like. Ambiance was nothing out of the ordinary. Depressing read more

Great and fast service. Ordered 12 fish tacos with everything on the side for a birthday. No issues and they were very nice guys working there. read more

The owner of the food truck is the worst person ever ! she's RUDE to her employees ! Never keeps business professional, always has to talk bad about people and makes rumors ! She doesn't care about her client's satisfaction just the money. the food here is disgusting and the place is always DIRTY ! please don't waste your time at this location ! I was excited to eat here but was very disappointed. read more

Mr Adobada - Mr.Fries. Cheese isn't even melted and the meat is cold . - Food Trucks Near Me - Chula Vista, California

I cannot say enough good things about this taco truck. Every taco that I've tried was outstanding. Their sauces also have both great heat and flavor to them, but the tacos are so good that you don't actually need the sauces! As an added bonus, they work extremely fast so it doesn't take long at all to get your tacos. Know this is one of those short and sweet reviews but honestly, the only thing you need to know is to make your way to Mr. Adobada it's worth it! read more

Been coming here for almost year on taco Tuesdays. Found it on the side of a road parking area. The Adobada tacos are really good. They were cheaper earlier on. Before all this "inflation" bs so prices have gone up since. But still cheaper then restaurant tacos, definitely recommended this place. You'll find two tacos el Gordo near by and I still think these are better. They do have a variety of other items as well. Enjoy read more

Being 1 block aways from tacos el Gordo this place is good the adobada was good the reason I give it 3 starts is because the Aguas frescas are very overpriced 5.25 it was not even that big of a size for the price I suggested you bring your drinks read more

For being a good truck my goodness the best of the best adobada I've had in all San Diego I highly recommend the torta, and the fries omg my greatest weakness I got both adobada and asada if you order a large it's a shareable size very very delicious I've been here twice and I love it. I'll definitely comeback. Ps I think Thursday they are closed. Five star review if you craving tacos, Tortas or fries please stop by you will not regret it read more

I tried the tacos, but I like the California Adobada burrito better! It was so good and a lot of flavor. I called in my order and it was ready by the time I got there which was less than 10 minutes. I will be back! read more

Wow!! This place was delicious. MR.Adobada is outstanding I was very impressed to see how clean they were and eager to assist every customer with kindness. Even being busy they were polite and very quick at prepping the food. Once we received our food we couldn't wait to eat it because it smelled so good and not to mention the tacos were pretty big. I had my family with me so we all tried something different and everything was amazing! The tacos were big and juicy. Everything else had good proportions and was equally as delicious. I absolutely love the different selections of salsa and condiments that they had to offer. They were very nice and friendly. I was planning for my daughter's baby shower and I was looking around to find a te quiero. I asked if they did private events or parties and the owner said yes. I went ahead and booked them after meeting with her for an initial consult. All of my guests were impressed and the baby shower was a success thanks to their great service, amazing food and reasonable prices. They went above and beyond and I was very grateful for that. It felt like they truly cared about the service they were providing and the quality of food they serve. I definitely will use them for all my parties needs in the future and continue to support then by eating at the food truck. They even have specials on Tuesdays so don't miss the taco Tuesday highly recommended! read more

I've been twice in the last 2 months the first time the lady was super nice and food was great!! 2nd time the 2 guys weren't very welcoming until I spoke Spanish then they seemed more friendly?the Adobada was delicious both times I'll be back! read more

Omg the adobada tacos are awesome they are the closes tacos compare to tj every tacos there are delicious but my favorite ones were the adobada they are PERFECT and JUICY simply the BEST ADOBADA & ASADA TACOS IN CALIFORNIA!!!! REALLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!!!!! 100%%%%%% read more

I love the Adobada tacos here. Very satisfying. I go out of my way to get em. My wife loves them too. I figured they seem to know wassup with the Adobada so I gave a carnitas taco a try. This was the worst taco I can remember having in my life. It was is hard, chunky, gristly, and dry. It's not like they even need to have it on the menu. Why even serve it? The only reason I'd give em 4 stars is because the Adobada tacos are really good. Don't order anything but the Adobada taco. read more

Racist establishment. This establishment lets you know your order is ready by calling your name. When I approached their counter after my name was called, they held my food in front of me just to call another person's name and allow them to step in front of me and grab their food first. The attendee apologized directly afterwards but knew what he did. I did not make a scene but this establishment will not see another penny from me and shouldn't from any other African Americans, Afro Latinos, or anyone of black descendant. Highly unacceptable!! read more

Unfortunately I have to update my review. This place use to be delicious however the girl taking orders is rude. We walked up and she just stared at us rather than saying a simply Hi. These people act like you need them. No customer service. That same girl was also seen sneezing in the back while she was chopping onion. Never did I see her wash her hands. The cook was back there popping food in his mouth. They have gotten really stingy with their food as well and sauces. I will never return here they went downhill. Oh yes they also raised their prices. This place use to get so busy nowadays their is hardly anyone there because of how they act I am sure. read more

This place is bomb.com!! Simple, convenient and no lines for lunch!! Excellent choices and the great taste of TJ tacos at reasonable prices!! So much to choose from. Mexican drinks are homemade so treat yourself! Deliciousness!! Close to work and quick!! Do it!! Enjoy!! read more

This is definitely my favorite Adobada taco spot in Chula Vista. It's a lot better than tacos el gordo !

Unfortunately I went to this place as they sell themselves really good...I hired them for a party and not only did they embarrass me by arriving 2 hours late BUT brought items such as flavored waters and condiments as if they had been used elsewhere and dirty water jugs. I was understanding or at least tried to be about the lie they told for their excuse of arriving late...YET they were moving at turtle space. We didn't get what we paid for and the young boy and his "girlfriend" played the victims because they claimed we had no reason to be upset. Not even a proper apology was given. Too bad they offered good tacos the day I went for tasting (which I paid for) but offered trash the day of my event. Such a disappointment read more

I only tried the adobada tacos but they were great the other tacos are probably good as well. In my opinion adobada tacos are the hardest to get right so I will be coming back to try other things on the menu. read more

Mr Adobada - adobada tacos - Food Trucks Near Me - Chula Vista, California

We decided to try them out after driving by. The food was not good. None of the meats had flavor. The salsa was even bad. The adobada, which they specialize in I guess, was bad too. Not going back. read more

It's a shame business's that make amazing food, start becoming greedy and looking for that profit. Me and my husband found this place after getting tired of waiting for Tacos El Gordo's line. And it was to our surprise way better then tacos el Gordo. Then they disappear we were so sad to see them go. Then today they just showed back up to the same location, we got excited and ordered food, NEVER AGAIN. Their food is beyond gross. They tried to make the tortillas them selves, half are cooked and hard asf, and the other half are straight dough. With no flavor and way to thick. Beyond upset. read more

The fries had barely any sour cream or guacamole and when I asked for more since they first didn't put that much they said it's 75 cents extra for both really frustrating when you already payed for the food and it came out with hardly any now you have to pay more read more
