Tacos with everything plus cheese
Jared G.

I ordered tacos asada, pastor, cabeza and tripas with everything plus cheese. Everything was pretty good, but only mildly flavorful. The tripas stood out a little with only slightly earthy taste and slightly crispy. The amount of meat in each taco is a little conservative. They don't have carnitas. There served with grilled onions and Serrano peppers. The red and green sauce, red is fairly spicy, green is medium spicy. It will get the job done for late-night tacos.

Nice lighting, clean area, and new chairs!

I'm surprised they don't have many reviews, maybe it's still a hidden jem? It's always busy but maybe not enough yelpers in that crowd. This truck was normally parked on the opposite side of the street and didn't have any seating options. We used to sit on plastic containers. The owner made a wise choice and recently purchased actual heavy duty chairs. So good job guys seems like you're listening to your customers. They serve grilled onions and serranos, they have a spicy green or red sauce that compliment the meats. This truck always looks clean and the cooks wearing matching collar shirts adds a nice touch! It's a great taco truck on the west side of the valley. One more thing...they serve Aguas Frescas! The horchata was tasty.

2 Asada, 2 Buche + complimentary sides
Joel C.

Since moving to the area, this spot is a convenient one stop shop for tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and aguas frescas. There are multiple meats to choose from, including Asada, Pollo, Al Pastor, Lengua, Tripas, Cabeza, Buche, and Pescado (extra). The green and red (spicy) salsa add a nice kick to the dish and the extra fixings (grilled onion, raddish, and picked carrots/jalapeño) complement well. My usual go-to is the burrito de al pastor.

The blonde lady over charged us by $10 and some change- needs to pay attention

Tried all the "best" taco trucks near north valley. This one triumphs them all, bar none.

IThis is a family owned business, and the people here have always treated me with kindness and respect and made me feel like family. From what I witnessed, this situation started as a disagreement over parking at the gas station with another customer, not an actual dining experience at this food truck. I heard the individual threaten to leave a bad review maybe thinking customer was an employee, so seeing this review afterward is disappointing. It's unfair to judge a business's food and service when, from what I witnessed, the person didn't even order or eat there. Honestly, it's sad that someone would take the time to write a review to potentially hurt a business over a personal disagreement. It's sad to see people choose to do things like this instead of simply walking away. Small businesses work hard to serve their customers, and they deserve a fair chance.
