My favorite street tacos truck in LA. Been going here for over 20 years. Tacos are good. Carne Asada is my favorite. Hot sauce is fire.

I see this truck daily on 3rd and Columbia (Westlake) last night 4-29-2022. Same one from Eagle Rock?

I see this truck nightly on 3rd and Columbia (Westlake area). Photo was taken on 4-29-2022. Is this the same Rambos from Eagle Rock? It's parked in front of a liquor store directly across the street from a 7-11. There seating for diners. Parking is limited and the neighborhood is questionable.

Rambos truck is back with a new name rulas tacos. Same cooks same great taste welcome back guys

Fake $10

I used to respect rambos. Leo's tacos are $1.20 but Rambos are $1.40. I was always curious about them. So i checked the truck out and to my surprise, i received the delicacy of tongue, cabeza, and tripas. I used to go late nights but after coming back after two years, I get an eyelash in my taco? And a fake $10 bill as change? To hell with this truck! When has 6 tacos cost $1.50 each amounting to $9? These people are thieves! They think they're some taco outlaws when in reality, they have a power complex that revolves around their delicious tacos. Disrespectful, fraudulent, and a scam. Never will I ever come back to this forsaken chum bucket.

The coolest thing about this truck are the murals painted on the sides of it. I was hoping for some Stallone style ass kicking to be served up, but alas none was found on the menu. I guess I'll just have to settle for some childhood memories of eighties war montages... Though as cool as the truck itself looks, this is just your average Mexican food truck, serving up tacos, burritos, tortas & quesadillas. I will say that if you like cabeza, I'd recommend getting it here. Their salsas are pretty legit too and are a must on any taco. It's easy to locate and you won't need to stalk Rambo's on twitter. The truck always sets up shop on Eagle Rock Blvd, just south of York.

This was not my favorite taco truck experience. The al pastor was crispy and very chewy. The chewiness made the taco taste fatty. The tortillas were soggy, too. Not my style. Plenty of street parking, no lines, and tacos were $1.25 each.

Best burrito yet so juicy inside OMG but on the small side still worth the $5
Nope S.

I see Rambos truck all the time at night on this street. How could I not try it? I ignored the B rating and gave it a shot after seeing so many people in front of the truck. I fell in love with their carne asada burrito with everything and sauce on the side please. So much flavor and juice from the meat. Mmm I crave Rambos late nights now. Those that know me know that I am the pickiest person there is when it comes to Mexican food so if Rambos won me over it must be that good. I can't vouch for anything else except the burrito. I was told their beans are cooked in pork fat. The absolute best way to cook those refried beans and authentic at that. Their competitor Leo's Taco truck is always lingering near them to be a head on competitor. Watch out! FYI: They take visa and MasterCard.

Did Rambos relocate? It's been a while, having withdrawals....

Nope they did not relocate. I called the restaurant and they said they will be opening back up soon.

Where did this truck go?!?!

I called and they will be coming back soon!

Anybody know where they're at ? It's been months and they're not at their location.

Haven't seen them in past couple weeks in their usual spot in Eagle Rock, I'm trippin too. Leo's Tacos is there but no Rambos

We kicked things off with the queso fundido, and wow, it was absolutely delicious! Rich, melty, and packed with flavor, it was the perfect way to start the evening. For my entrée, I ordered the cochinita pibil, which was incredibly tender and saucy in the best way. My husband ordered the short rib, and it was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. On the side, we shared the papas bravas and esquite, both of which complemented our dishes perfectly. The drinks truly elevated the night. My husband and I both love mezcal, and Kateen delivered. I ordered the Valentine's Day "Zona Romántica," which featured mezcal and wine almost like a sangria, but completely unique and beautifully balanced. My husband had the "Gypsy Fever," also mezcal-based, and it was smoky, smooth, and refreshing. Between the food, cocktails, and ambiance, it made for such a romantic and memorable evening. We'll absolutely be back!!

However, the reason I'm giving 2 stars is because of the valet parking experience. First, I was charged $25 even though the sign clearly stated that valet parking is $17 for the first 3 hours, and $25 after 3 hours. Our reservation was at 6:30 PM, we arrived on time, and we left before 9 PM, so the charge did not make sense. When I asked the valet attendant, he kept saying, "because you dined there," without giving any clear explanation. If it is actually a flat rate for restaurant guests, then that should be clearly stated upfront to customers. Second, when I got into my car, I noticed that someone had touched the navigation settings because the compass direction and display were different from what I normally use. I do not understand why there was any need to adjust or touch my navigation system at all. I really think the restaurant needs to improve and better manage its valet parking system. Honestly, it felt like I was being charged a random price just because I was told, "you dined there." If there is a flat valet rate for restaurant guests, that information should be clearly communicated upfront instead of leaving customers confused at the end.

Now when you pull up originally you might think, "am I in the right place" but once you park and get into the courtyard, it is LOVELY! Amazing ambience! There is a bocce set up, string lights. It is a little slice of oasis in the middle of the fashion district. The restaurant itself - beautiful. I couldn't ask for more. Absolutely perfect in my book. Beautiful plants hanging, perfect Spanish music in the background (any place playing Natalia LaFourcade is a win). The drinks were great! I had the jungle bird which was fun. Food was so good too. The whipped beans are the star! We had the guacamole which was tasty, great tostadas with it. The arepas were good but the pork belly was a little too fatty (I know pork belly is always fatty) to the point the fat muted the flavored for the arepa a bit, but still delicious. The empanadas were great and as someone who lived in South America and ate empanadas every day, these really took me back to my Paraguay days. The squash blossoms were light and perfectly fried. Unfortunately my friends had gone to Funke the night before so they were comparing the squash blossoms and Funke won out, but they still liked Dama's! Small plates were enough for the 3 of us. The service was quick and attentive. Parking was easy for us. I will definitely be back!

We initially had one server who brought us water and took our appetizer order, but then disappeared for quite some time without checking back in. At that point, I even went looking for a manager or hostess and couldn't find anyone available. Eventually, we were given a new server, but she came across as extremely rude and inattentive. What upset me most was the overall lack of communication and attentiveness throughout the experience. It made what was supposed to be a special Mother's Day outing feel frustrating and disappointing. Sadly, this experience soured my impression enough that I don't see myself returning.

Hollenbeck was good but I definitely enjoyed the Okie burrito more, I ordered the "original" size once and didn't seem to learn my lesson the second time, these burritos can feed two in Original size. They offer a "Mini" version which would be satisfactory for one person. My favorite thing about these burritos is how "home-made" they are, the salsas and meats are fresh and taste like they came out of an abuelitas kitchen. I still need to try the crunchy tacos and nachos which look great, I recommend trying this classic establishment at least once if you're in the area.
