    Quesabirria tacos
    Ilse H.

    Ok, this truck was around the corner from the movie theaters- Regal. I said "why not have some tacos before the movies." I got the quesabirria plate and I thought they were good. The tortilla wasn't covered in oil and it had a good ratio of the cheese and meat. I added cilantro and onion to them, but it wasn't complete without the consume. Messy to eat, do make sure to have plenty of napkins. I was left satisfied with fingers of birria smell lol My bf's super burrito, in his words, was ok. He wasn't a big fan of the chile chipotle they used. I personally didn't like the salsa that came with my plate. Luckily it was on the side but overall, the quesabirria tacos weren't a disappointment.

    10/8/23 menu.

    I'll keep looking. It's good, not great or as some have said "It's the best taco truck in Medesto "...nope. Service was okay, I asked the young lady how much more it would cost for a forth quezabirria taco to be added to the 3 that came with the plate which cost $11.50 or so. $5.00 for the forth taco, maybe...no. The 3 tacos I did eat were okay, not necessarily worth the extra three miles I drove out of my way to get them. My wife's shrimp burrito was a mess. Goopy rice with 4 medium sized shrimp stuffed perfectly in a huge tortilla, I didn't score any points there! They did have a small shade canopy with two tables for getting out of the sun. Nice. The truck itself was clean enough as was the lot it sat on. Overall, it's just okay. Wouldn't go out of my way again to revisit just okay. Last words...still looking for that one truck!

    Breakfast burrito with chorizo
    Eric A.

    Every other Thursday , I have an appointment that precludes me from making breakfast at home . So I usually order from the Community Hospice cafe, good food reasonable prices , I order on line and send one of my people to pick it up, put this particular morning, I missed the order deadline for breakfast. So I need to run an errand and I thought breakfast burrito! Late enough it was kind of like a brunch meal .. so I stopped into Taco house, in the WalMart plaza on McHenry .. no one greeted me , no one at counter, could hear people in back , but no one responded to my hello so I left , thought now what .. there at the end of the driveway I saw the Orange trailer and the doors were up , so I stopped at Rafa's Taco. Ordered Chorizo breakfast burrito. I was very happy with the burrito, great flavor , displayed some knife skills with that chop on the filling , noticed another review used word minced , for this particular dish that is best part , sure it probably saves the owner some $ on ingredients, but it was nice to have the chorizo evenly cooked and dispersed in the filling .. got a bag of garnish on side , lime, carrot, radish and two small containers of a green salsa. The salsa lacked a little heat but was ok overall Really enjoyed the food and will return to try other items. Thanks Rafa

    I ordered a "lengua" taco and it was not lengua. It was undercooked meat & was old.

    BEWARE: Food is undercooked & you can get sick. I used to get tacos from this food truck on McHenry but after ordering lengua and tripa tacos I will never go here again and don't recommend anyone else to. The food was undercooked and the quality and service has only gotten worse. I don't know if the owners hired new cooks that don't know how to cook the food but I was very disappointed with the food and they will not get my business anymore. Such a shame for a food truck that has so much potential.

    First time and not my last, been looking for a good taco truck near me and I have found it. Everything was on point

    Wow! The best taco truck tacos I have had! Carne asada, 1 tortilla, no cilantro, add cheese. Amazing tacos! They are actually located on McHenry Ave in a small car dealership by Walmart. Definitely will be back! One thing..... Someone else had mentioned the attitude of the young lady taking orders. agree, she had a major attitude!!!!!!

    Cool little taco truck just next to Walmart in modesto. $1.75 a taco with all Ruth right taco condiments. Carnitas also good with the right amount of bark. The thing I liked about these tacos is that they did not just grill the tacos, but they added a little carnitas juice on the grill to give the tortillas a great flavor. #spicemeister approved tacos.

    Frida's Taqueria Ajua - Cucumber Agua Fresca...hit the spot!!!

    First off, we found out about this restaurant through social media. We knew eventually we'd want to…read moretry it. Luckily, we were by the mall and made the VERY short 10-ish minute drive. Worth it! Walked into a very quiet, but colorful restaurant with only one other patron inside. The employees were so nice. We were told to pick anywhere, we were brought menus and instantly asked if we'd like anything to drink or if we wanted to look at the menu first... We asked for suggestions and the waitress offered the types of drinks they have. She brought us chips and salsa. The chips were homemade with a perfect crunch. The salsa was fresh, chunky and not spicy. The pepino cone limo aqua Fresca was the best aqua Fresca I've EVER had. Not too sweet at all and was SO REFRESHING. We also ordered an horchata and I was told that was just as good. The food... Where to start. We ordered an empanada and some quedabirria tacos. The empanada was HUGE, deliciously filling with fresh ingredients. It had great flavor. The quesabirria tacos were probably the best we've had. You order the amount you want. They are 5.99 each and oh so delicious. The meat tasted SO FRESH and flavorful. The creamy jalapeño salsa had a NICE kick to it. All meals come with radish and pickled onions as garnish, but eating them with the meal made it even more refreshing and delicious. They need more than one location, but until then we will be back! (Luckily, I heard they do catering.)

    Cool ambiance and good service…read more Ordered a couple of wet burritos to go; chicken and chile verde. Wife liked her burrito but felt that chicken was a little dry. My burrito was pretty good so we will need to come back to dine in and try some other items. Overall 4 stars.
