First and foremost let's start with the Parking. NO PARKING. Take a co pilot in case of you needing to move your car because you will double park. Second ONLY CASH I repeat CASH ONLY! 3rd double and triple check your order. We normally call to order like a ahead of time. If you're hungry hungry don't expect to have your meal right away. Give them 1 or an 1 and half wait time. When you call you will be given a number but in this case on the phone I was #37 but the box said 31. Size it's sufficient enough but if you're super hungry one will cut it but can be selfish with another half. It's made as you order which is good because it's fresh. Their red salsa it's not spicy at all at least this time around. The torta is about 6 inches or so. I couldn't get the menu this time around: so a 4 for messing up my order. 5 for the food.
Best sandwiches ever, hubby got Argentina and I got cubano, both excesses our expectations. Will be back to try their other sandwiches. Like other yelper pictured, they are loaded, half sandwich satisfied my belly. Call ahead to order. They might run out of bread around 9pm.
ARBY'S AIN'T GOT SHIT ON SUPER TORTAS DF (let's be honest.. DTF*). Not your traditional tortas. These are massive, heartattack-inducing, treat yo self meals. Super Tortas DF is a weekend-nightly ONLY food cart in South LA on the SE corner of Central and 41st St. I got the Pollo, Pierna, and Quesillo torta (not a "super torta") for a solid $9 w/tax. Quick Tips: -Street Parking only. Read the signs. -One measly 5top and several plastic bar stools. Great for Take out. -CASH ONLY -Long wait depending on the line. I recommend calling ahead. -You might drool because Food Cart window is transparent. WATCH MAGIC HAPPEN. -Salchicha is Sausage -Pierna is thinly sliced pork Leg -I didn't want to die this time, but I'll definitely get a Super Torta next time. Taste 5/5 No need to manipulate the photos. My massive Pierna y Pollo torta (probably the healthiest item on the menu) was stuffed with tender chicken breast, juicy pork leg, tomato slices, avocado, and quesillo (a creamy, less pungent Swiss) stuffed in a large, toasty telera roll. I also asked for mine to be MUY PICANTE (Supa spicy) so they added a bunch of spicy peppers. On a scale of 1-Howlin'(10) it's a 4/10. Good burn. Price 5/5 Huge sandwiches, great portions. Service 5/5 They move as fast as they can, and it's worth the wait. Great if you can speak Spanish.
The hype is real! Go get yourself this amazing $8 cuban sandwich on the corner of Central and 41st. I've had the cubano from Porto's bakery, but this sandwich trumps that by far. The sandwich is made to order and was just full of flavor. The ingredients meld together perfectly that made each bite so good. They have an extensive list of sandwiches on their menu, but we went for the most popular which is their cubana. Just watching the man make it was mouthwatering as is. In between the bread was layers of ham, milanesa, chorizo, yellow and white cheeses, quesillo, egg, avocado, tomato, and green chile. I scarfed down a quarter of the sandwich before we made it back to the car, but not before snapping a pic of the amazing cheese pull when you pull the two halves apart. Half of the sandwich was filling enough and the second half was perfect for lunch the next day, although it got a bit soggy. He made every sandwich himself so it takes awhile to get your order. Even though it's a big sandwich, you'll want your own, plus it's only $8. Tell them how spicy you want it. The location of the truck isn't the safest area of LA, so use the buddy system if wandering there at night. (We were hollered at) We got there at 8pm on Sunday night, no line to place your order, but it was a 45 minute wait to receive your order. Service was very sweet even with a language barrier. Parking on 41st.
They serve Cuban and Colombian sandwiches and nothing else. I got an Espanola. It was made with such care and precision that it was like watching a performance. The sandwich was generously sized and delicious and a wonderful change from the standard Mexican fare so common in this area. And to the couple who realized that they only serve tortas and walked away....Sorry guys, you missed out.
O M G Best cubana ever! Every bite was so delicious and cheesy and full of flavor and just perfect like wow. So meaty, cheesy and with a perfect kick to it. It's massive and only $8! So bombbb! There wasn't a line when I went, but people who have already ordered and were waiting for their food. Ended up waiting about 15min for my sandwich, which isn't bad! Will def be back if I'm in the area!
I love tortas so you know I had to check this place out. I actually ate tacos right before coming here so I will def have to come back again to try out the other tortas on an empty stomach. My bf and I split the cubano torta since everyone was raving about it. I had no expectations since I've never had a cubano before, but I will def say it is heavy/greasy since theres so many different types of meats on top of the egg and cheese and oil that they use to cook the bread (They use the oil that they cook the pork? or some type of meat in. Def gives it the extra flavor) but the sauce it came with really evened the greasiness out. It also probably didn't help that my stomach was half full from eating tacos right before. But for $10 that thing was bigger than my face! You can probably split this with a friend. Parking- street parking only
Hands down best torta EVER!!! Whole invthe wall spot in the hood but definitely worth the eisk . Torta Cubana is highly recommended and the tacos are 2nd to none. Mer the owner and couldnt help but notice the pride he takes in the prep and ingredients he uses in making the food
Quite heavy with the variety of the meats and cheese inside, but definitely worth the search for this truck. During operation hours, they are on the corner of the street, across the preschool, next to the yellow building. Lives up to the instagram cheese pull
I first heard of this truck a long time ago from seeing it on a facebook video. It went crazy viral. They had the amazing cheese pull of the torta. I had to have it. I came here late at night on a Thursday. A few people in line. The service of the team here is incredible. They were very nice, helpful, and made sure we had what we needed. The Cubana is probably the best I've ever had. Tons of different meats and cheese inside. Milenesa, hams, yellow, white cheese, guacamole and more. It was more than I could hadnle. I recommend this for all you sandwich lovers! Recommendation: Cubana tortas
Si quiere una torta gigante y sabrosa, COME TO THIS TORTA TRUCK ASAP! 41st & Central is the most delicious street corner as it hosts a street taco stand and this torta truck that serves these massive tortas. Yes, you may have to stand in long lines. Yes, you may have to sit in flimsy little plastic chairs, but where else can you be consuming unique flavored aguas, massive tortas and cabeza tacos simultaneously on a street corner? The tortas are named after countries [The German (Alemena), Italiana, Americana, Rusa, Argentina, etc], where the difference is in adding/omitting avocado, pineapple, cheese, different protein, etc etc. ..But if you made the trek to South LA and need to chose one kind of torta, get the massive Cubana which is basically the kitchen sink. Ask them to add avocados (might as well, right?). YUUUUGE and cheesy (see pic). Come off hours to potentially avoid a long line. Don't forget to tell the boss man behind the glass that you loved it. A lot of respect and love for these torta men and women xo
Damn!!! No joke real deal... So big and yummy! Tried the Cubana $10 , alemania $8, rusa $8. All tortas are named after country's! Come hungry. Definitely coming back. Parking on street. I went on Thursday night parking was no issue, No table, but they have Chairs. Sodas , fresh water Salsa red only Jalapeño
This is certainly not healthy it may be overwhelming as one reviewer has said but it is certainly not the 3 star rating she gave. The Torta Cubana is delicious and with many ingredients but if the Cubano is too much for your appetite there are other more simple Tortas one can choose from. Service: It's a food truck Food: 8.5/10 Price: 9/10 read more
Was okay, I think. It was huge and had lots of toppings but all the things were a bit overwhelming. You certainly can't eat there regularly and remain healthy lol. This was definitely one of those 1 time deals! read more

Damn, these are by far the most tasty tortas I've had in my life. Super Tortas DF has ruined it for me, I can no longer eat your average Joe torta now. Most other tortas that I've eaten consist of the typical meats like carne asada or al pastor. Here they incorporate all sorts of delicious meats that induce artery-clogging effects, but it's totally worth it. A friend and I decided to check this place out after hearing all the great reviews. Each torta consists of cheese, a healthy glob of mayo, jalapenos, avocados, and tomatoes. The Rusa (Milanesa, Pierna, Quesillo) consists of deep fried beef and all the previously said toppings. Man, I never thought that breaded meat would taste so amazing in a sandwich. They cut every sandwich in half for you so that it's easier to share but trust me, you'll want your own. If you have an even bigger appetite go for their Cubana, which is an even bigger behemoth of a sandwich. The orders can take a while; I ended up waiting over 30 minutes for two tortas. Expect a wait every time unless you get there early. Definitely not in the safest of neighborhoods, so go with multiple people, ESPECIALLY if you're a female. Find street parking in the vicinity. read more

Spent an hour or so in line on a Friday night with light showers just to see if the tortas from this small food truck was as great as I've been reading about. Let me tell you I'd do it all over again and will do it again because this was the best torta I've eaten hands down and I've eaten plenty in and out of Los Angeles. Super Tortas DF is parked on a residential street near the corner of Central and 41st so finding parking is easy enough. The moment I stepped out of my car I was hit by the smell of buttered bread being toasted. From here it was hurry and run to the line before more people show up and yes, the line was long and getting longer by the minute as people were showing up in groups. The Cubanas is their most popular and holds the crown for the best torta in Los Angeles with lots of meats but I tried the Rusa which is much simpler. I figured if the tortas are as good as they say, then trying one with less going on would prove it. This sandwich had pork, ham, tomatoes, guac, jalapenos, salsa and cheese... CHEESE GALORE! The melted cheese came stretching out when pulling the torta apart. Well seasoned pork meat was crammed into that warm bread that had no shortage of butter. The torta also had the perfect amount of guac and salsa. Not once during eating did I come across a soggy piece of bread. The salsa made the already juicy pork juicier which I loved. I finished before I even got back to my car...and to think I was going to wait until I got home to eat. These tortas are amazing and deserve much praise. I'm ready to tackle the Cubanas because I know that's going to top the Rusa without a doubt. Dinner 4/8/2016 read more
In the unsuspected depths of a sketchy part of Los Angeles, a weekend food truck stands selling possibly one of the best sandwiches ever made! The moment anyone splits open Super Tortas D.F famous Cubano in half, eyes widen and mouths water! Love at first sight never felt so real! THE CUBANO: is their most popular sandwich consisting of two buttered slices stuffed with milaneza, pork leg, ham, sausage, chorizo, egg, different cheeses, mayo, jalapeños, avocado, tomatoes, and some of their sauce! Each bite is overwhelmingly delicious with all sorts of flavor and a kick of spiciness! THE SABROSA: also has two thick slices packed with milaneza, extra cheese, pineapple, avocado, and mayo! A more simple Torta but still very appetizing! Recommended for customers who aren't fans of spicy. As busy as this truck gets, they still know how to be professional and extremely friendly to every customer. If you don't want a certain ingredient they are more than happy to make it just the way you want it. You can say "Super" is quite an understatement for such portions and service! read more
If you're in the mood for a cheap, yummy, and heavy meal, Super Tortas it is! They open at 3:30 and the locals are already waiting in line before they even get the generator running. Most folks get the cubano ($8--all other sandwiches are $6) and for good reason too. I saw the guy making it and he just doesn't stop piling on the goods. So many different kinds of meat and cheeses melted to perfection, cooked with slabs of butter. There's a fried "mystery meat" that was a bit chewy--only part of the sandwich I couldn't handle. I especially love the chiles and hot sauce that comes with the torta. I heard wait times get crazy starting dinner time so get there early, aka right when they open. It's not in the nicest part of the city so all the more reason to head out when the sun is still out! read more

After asking the store manager at the corner of 41st and Central when the truck arrives he said that the truck is there on the weekends usually after 4/5pm. The local community that loves this place already knows to CALL AHEAD or else you'll get stuck waiting a very long time (25-30 min). The Cuban torta did not disappoint in terms of content, it was piled on with ingredients and is very heavy even on an empty stomach. The size of the tortas are very large definitely not those trying to eat healthy. Overall great tortas just wish there would've been maybe some sort of extra sauce or something. Definitely a torta to try for yourself. read more

Be prepared to wait a LONG time for one of the best tortas you will ever eat. This is for a Thursday night around 7:30pm Wait time to order: ~25 min Wait time to get food(2 cubanas): ~30-40 min The waiting game doesn't seem so bad when they have a novella playing on their tv screen, a wide window into the truck to see the food being made, or you're with good company. Price: No tax, but make sure to bring cash! Regular listed combo sandwiches are $6 A cubanas is $8 Their glass bottled sodas are $1.50 Inside the cubanas: Ham, yellow cheese, white cheese, quesillo (shredded cheese, that's heated and melted with chorizo folded inside), cut-up hotdogs, some beef thing (which I'm assuming is the Milanesa or pierna-- I could be wrong), mayo and butter on the bread, tomato, avocado, green chiles, egg. They already give you one hot sauce, but you can ask for more. The sauce tastes like a liquidy spicy mayo. Think InNOut spread sauce minus the pickles plus a spicy kick. OR think Halal Guys red and white sauce combined, but not as spicy. The torta was delicious. And by delicious I mean, very meaty, perfectly melted cheeses, with the right kind of spicy kick to it. Just say yes. read more
Simple and Sweet It is literally at the end of a street and its a small cart that sells the best tortas in LA PERIOD. For $7 or $10 (for the cubano) you literally get dinner and breakfast in one because these sandwiches are massive and packed with the hangover cure! They also give hot sauce on the side if you wish to add a kick to your already delicious torta! It may take a while to get your sandwich after ordering but your patience will be rewarded from this gem in LA. While you wait, they do have a TV to watch or you can be mesmerized by watching the cooks make the sandwiches. They are usually packed but you will see what the hype is about. Each sandwich comes with choice of meat, tomatoes, quesillo cheese and a lot of butter and mayo so dont expect anything healthy here! read more
Rating: 64/100 pts I came to try their unanimously praised Cubana Torta, and while it does pack a mean punch in the face, I wouldn't put it on my short-list for the best sandwiches of LA. First off, be aware that this is a food truck in a less-than-stellar area. At no point did I feel unsafe: the crowd of torta-loving locals, huddled around the limited seats and propped screen showing Spanish-language television made for a communal atmosphere more than anything else. That said, the constant motorbikes whizzing past, both on the streets and sidewalks, did add to the grittiness and detract from the experience. This grittiness continues into the sandwich: picture a behemonth-sized circular bun filled with every imaginable type gritty meat--diced hot dog, cold cut bologna and ham, sinewy pork ribbons--, plus plastic-wrapped square cheese, and (to their credit) fresh scrambled egg. This is all further intensified with sauce, butter, and mayo to create an explosive combination of flavors that is as diverse as it is caloric. ...but it's $8(!!!), so it's hard to find fault. This thing is huge--I was still full even after splitting it with my friend, meaning you can get a decent meal for $4. There's something to be said about that. And that something is 3 stars. read more
Great torta. I came here w/ my boyfriend on Sunday when we were in the area around 4pm. THANKFULLY they had arrived not too long ago & we're still setting up so the wait was not long at all. There was one person ahead of us but she had ordered before we even got there. We ordered a cubana torta ($8) & rusa torta ($6). The cubana torta was stuffed with so much fillings & was very delicious. The rusa was very good as well. I love that they have a huge window so you can see your food being prepared while you wait. I will definitely come back whenever I'm in the area again. read more

I saw a video on Facebook and decided to investigate further. They arrived a little late and we waited for them to set up but it was absolutely worth the wait and the drive. I ordered Rusa (Russian) and my boyfriend ordered Alemana (German) and we split it and shared. It was delicious and i was happily full after. Definitely worth visiting if you're in the area or up for an adventure read more

The torta was ok. I'm a fan of anything sandwich but all the hype about this place maybe gave me too high of expectations and it fell short. It's a huge sandwich with greasy meat and pre made egg patties. I get it the lines are long and one guy makes ALL the sandwiches so they have to find places to cut corners. Certainly is a treat to watch them make the food but maybe I don't want to see the pre made food get patted down with a paper towel because it's too greasy or how they don't use gloves while touching the food. Also, we asked for no pork but we got it anyways. Despite in my opinion nothing truly to rave about, it is a good pic op for a huge sandwich stuffed with lots of items. I won't be back but definitely something worth trying. read more

Listen. This is the spot. If you want a true, authentic LA food truck experience THIS IS IT. One of the best sandwiches in all of the city, the Cuban Torta reigns supreme. Watch them delicately cook your sandwich in pure awe, and when your moment of truth comes and they deliver their masterpiece into your grimey hands you will be thankful. Like spice? You're damn right you like spice. Get the chiles on it. Add the sauce they give you. Don't like spice? Well then don't do that but add some pineapple to it. There's a way for everyone to be happy here. So what are you waiting for just go and experience the magic read more
