Chille Relleno Burrito!! Yummy
Jessica S.

This is one of my favorite family owned taco trucks in Humboldt Burrito de lengua y Chile relleno never fails plus they can combine both in one!!

Food truck and tables.

This is an amazing place to eat. The menu has many items to choose from, the food is cheap and fresh. Bring cash! I was here on a Wednesday and truck pulled in at 11 am and started serving right after.

I really enjoyed their Chile rellleno super burrito for a great price! I'll be back if I'm ever in town again.

Speedy Taco Truck is hard to beat for a quick, inexpensive and delicious meal. These guys are really making some of the every best and quickest mexican food around the humboldt bay area. $2 tacos, $5 burritos, $3 tamales - its all good. The speedy tacos @ 2.60 are big, fat, fresh and full tacos and with three of them for under eight bucks is a great and filling meal. The carnitas and al pastor are both very good. Service is fast, friendly and always good. This is a CASH ONLY eatery. Walk up window service order at the right window - pick up at the left. There is usually a line during the lunch hours, but moves very quickly. Also during the school week lunch time hours this place can be overrun by high school kids ( the local hs is only a couple blocks away and they swarm this place at times) but it does move pretty fast, I've never waited more than 5-6 minutes even when there is a line of teenagers. If dozens of teenagers and all the noise isn't for you then plan accordingly to avoid during the lunch rush hours. A small shade covered area with a few picnic tables in front of the truck, makes for a nice place to sit and enjoy your food or take it to go. Quality food at a great price, and fast service - its why when you drive by this truck it always seems to have cars and people in front of it. A great lunch with delicious food, solid service and inexpensive prices - well worth a stop. A Solid 4.5 stars - rounded up for fast service and some of the best Al Pastor around. 00299

Very good !! We were in the area and thought this place looked fun, decided to have dinner a bit…read moreearly and go here, we will be back ! The service was great, our waiter/server was very nice and answered all our questions, he checked in on us often and offered what we needed when we needed it Drinks : we'll be coming back to try their margaritas and such, they have such a long menu of different variations / flavors we're excited for, but only ordered soft drinks this time around, I'm pregnant currently so we'll be back down the road when drinking is something I'll be able to participate in again. Food: food was great ! My husband ordered street tacos and loved them, they had great flavor and each bite had enough of everything. I ordered the grilled chicken taco salad, the one in the crispy tortilla shell bowl- loved it ! The shell was perfect, it added such a great crunch, the salad itself was good, and we had a lot of leftovers to take home as well ! The restaurant itself is super cute with a nice ambiance ! The tables and restaurant were super decorated and they had fun music going too so the vibe was super pleasant and we were just happy to be there. Definitely recommend :)

Superb customer service! Not too in your face but kind enough to answer all of our questions. Food was delicious while the drinks were strong. The pambazo was nicely seasoned that my usual self didn't have to drench it in hot sauce.

My friend booked a 7:30 reservation, and we arrived a little early around 7:20 and were seated…read moreimmediately. First off, this place has such an enchanting feel to it. From the outdoor lighting to the quaint indoor decor, it's one of those places that makes you appreciate the ambiance before you've even ordered anything. Our server was welcoming, friendly, and attentive throughout the evening. She checked in on us regularly without interrupting our conversations, which I always appreciate. We started with the carpaccio, grilled oysters, and charcuterie board. The carpaccio was simply delicious. The accompanying bread was lightly toasted, allowing the delicate texture of the tenderloin to come through rather than getting lost in the crunch. The drizzle of Caesar dressing and coarse salt was just enough to elevate the flavor of the meat without overpowering it. The oysters were fresh, and I appreciated that the BBQ sauce (at least I think that's what it was) came on the side so you could control how much you wanted. Now, that charcuterie board deserves some love. You could tell there was intention behind the selections and pairings. The pâté was whipped, giving it such a delicate texture. The goat cheese, while tart, paired beautifully with the accompanying condiment and pluot slices. And the manchego with the apple slices? Yes, please. I enjoyed the charcuterie so much that if they offered it as a meal, I would absolutely order it. Give me that board and let me mind my business. For our mains, the table ordered ribeye, both naked and dressed, and filet mignon. We all requested medium rare, and let me tell you, the kitchen knows their temp bc they delivered! My ribeye was seasoned well and cooked exactly how I wanted it. The accompanying salad was delicious and abundant, and I was fortunate enough to snag the last twice-baked potato. Definitely flavorful with a great mouthfeel. No complaints from me. We ended the evening sharing the lemon tart, and I'm glad we did because it was a pretty generous slice. The crust was THICC, and the lemon filling was a lovely way to cut through the heaviness of everything we had enjoyed throughout dinner. Between the food and our table conversations, we somehow ended up being the last guests in the dining room. And despite how long we lingered, the staff never made us feel rushed. They remained kind and professional while allowing us to enjoy the rest of our evening. I can see why Larrupin Cafe has earned its reputation as one of the area's most romantic dining spots. The ambiance, food, and hospitality all came together for a wonderful evening. Would I return? You don't have to ask me twice.

Delightful dining experience! Recently was in Trinidad for a vacation and went out to dinner with…read moremy husband and our two kids. Everything we ordered was just amazing! The flavors and thoughtfulness of the dishes were so unique and fun. We ordered the Half and Half (Ribs and Brisket), the Halibut special, which was a philo-dough wrapped halibut, and the chicken special which was philo-dough wrapped chicken. The sides we enjoyed were asparagus (which my 6 year old declared was the best she'd ever had in her entire life), the coconut macadamia basmati rice (which I immedietly started researching how to make myself because it was incredible), and the twice baked potato. Everything comes with a significant sized size salad that has the most delicious dressing! We ordered the Baked Brie as an appetizer and had the creme brûlée and whipped goat cheese and chocolate (it has a better name but I can't remember it) for dessert. I am not normally a big fan of creme brûlée but there's was INCREDIBLE! We loved the goat cheese/chocolate, but that creme brûlée was OUT of this world! My only comment or suggestion if you go is to know that the portions are really huge for a fancy restaurant. The entrees come with a side and a large side salad and they give you a complementary charcuterie board as an appetizer (the bread on that board wasn't my favorite, but everything else was delicious!) and if we had known, we probably wouldn't have ordered our own appetizer. We had SO much leftover and took it to have as leftovers, but if we go back, we would probably split our entree and maybe even skip an appetizer? All in all, GREAT experience!
