We always have leftovers because their portions are fat. We have had the mulitas, tacos, super burrito and super Cali burrito. So far the Cali burrito is my fave.

We ordered the mulita meal, sopa and keto salad. All were pretty good and unique. The sopa has a well fried base. And the meats were flavorful. Husband and kids polished it off. I docked one star because of the salad. The keto salad has a generous portion of iceberg lettuce--two layers deep but it was not proportional to the topping. Topping had one layer of meat, avocado, and cheese which made the salad not as flavorful. However, it was nice to have the keto option. I would return when I'm off keto and order the sopas and mulitas.

While La Carreta de Mi Tierra (#1) has been quietly blowing up the taco street scene in Salem, just…read moreacross the street lies Los Pinos, an older, more traditional taco truck where tastiness and authenticity go hand in hand. Some would say this is the best street taco experience in the city, which is hard to argue, especially when the tacos are this good. Their tacos are around $1.50-$2.00 each, which beat the competition in terms of pricing but I trust this price will catapult in a very short time. Their version of carnitas are stewed and fried to perfection and their lengua / al pastor is fantastic. When available, their fish tacos are worth every dime, though they are a $1 more. It's not all tacos, they also serve a decent variety of burritos, quesadillas, and tortas. They're very good about stuffing every morsel of food into the tortilla / bread, which is abundant in its own right. Do not forget to use as much of their condiments to really enhance the flavor. Thankfully, it's never too busy here and the staff is super friendly. The last time I checked they were still cash only and parking is extremely limited. They've done well to attract a lot of local clientele, many of whom visit the truck during the late hours into the evening. There is some seating with these makeshift tables, but I prefer to take my food to go. When it comes to Los Pinos and their wonderful variety of street inspired food, everyone wins. _________________ (#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/la-carreta-de-mi-tierra-salem

After all the previous good reviews I had to try Los Pinos today. My bf ordered four tacos (two…read morechicken and two tacos de lengua). The guy who took our order and put everything together was really nice and patiently listened to how we wanted the tacos and burritos - no beans, etc. First bite was close your eyes good. There is some kind of salsa poured over the tacos that made their deliciousness more delicious. Lots of cilantro and onion and almost like a gravy. Then there was the burrito. Oh man it was so good! We tore it apart in greed and burrito lust and panted in shame afterwards. But not so much shame that we didn't plot to return next week.

I used the online ordering system for takeout and it was easy navigate. Food was being freshly made upon arrival.

I went looking for hot dogs and found an awesome little Mexican joint with the best sopes, period…read more Pros: The sopes. I don't know whether they consider their sopes a specialty of theirs, but I was impressed. I had pork and my wife had chicken. We both had black beans on our sopes - an excellent decision. The sopes came drizzled with an avocado salsa. I am not a fan of avocado, but I loved this salsa. 'Nuff said. They also offered tomatillo and peanut salsas. (Consider yourself warned if you have a serious peanut allergy.) I enjoyed both. The peanut salsa was thinner than most Thai peanut sauces and of course the flavor was Mexican, not Thai. My sope didn't need the peanut salsa, but you have to try it anyway. By the way, there are other items on the menu besides sopes. I had an asada taco heaped with meat. (Winner.) They also have their so-called "secret" menu on bright video screens and do burritos that can also be served as bowls. I saw chilaquiles on the menu board as well. In other words, it's not really about the sopes. But those were pretty dang good. Cons: The plastic cutlery. The forks were wimpy. That's it for the cons that I found. But it is a con when trying to eat a sope with a fork and knife. Trust me. Notes: By "joint", I mean a place where you order and pay at the counter and bus your own table. Don't expect fancy. Our food was not truly mild, but my wife (who sadly can't do the heat anymore) was able to tolerate the spice level. Recommendation: If you haven't figured out yet that you need to try this place (unless you have a hard-core peanut allergy, of course), there is no hope for you. Lol.
