TACOS WERE FIRE AND FILLING. There's so many good food trucks on this street. thanks for seasoning them well!! *licks fingas clean* read more

Tacos Don Carlos is so delicious. My favorite is the classic chicken tacos. He seasons the meat so well and it hits the spot every time. He's right on Soscol so it's super convenient and easy. Not only is the food great but he's a great human being who gives back to his community, through out the years he's donated food to people in need and in the past when we've had fires he's been there to support our community. We hired him to cater our wedding in 2021 and he was the star. Everyone LOVED their food, he had burritos, tacos and a quesadilla option. Everyone ate till they were full and years later people still talk about how great it was. As a vendor he was so gracious, kind, professional and prompt. We had another food truck and let's just say we did not get the same experience. I can't believe it took me this long to realize I never wrote a review for our wedding but here's a 2 in 1 review. read more

The Al pastor super burrito was huge. I asked for whole beans, which I got and light on the rice. I think that message may have gotten missed. Either way, the burrito was very tasty. They have good Al pastor. Other than too much rice, it was good. read more

Tacos Don Carlos - Super burrito - Mexican Near Me - Napa, California

After trying many of the trucks in the Napa valley, I have to say I like Tacos Don Carlos the best of all of them. The truck offers a lot of interesting combos with hot Cheetos and the like but I like to stick with the classics. A burrito with steak runs you around $11-12 and is absolutely huge, even bigger than chipotle. Inside are beans, onion, Spanish rice, crema, and your meat of choice (I usually prefer steak). What stands out was the flavor and texture of the rice which never disappoints and the meat as well which was tender and flavorful. Would highly recommend giving this truck a try as it's among the best! read more

Tacos Don Carlos - Steak burrito - Mexican Near Me - Napa, California

Lovely taco stand on the corner of Soscol and Vallejo street ran by a husband and wife. A perfect sized menu that has a majority of classic tacos and burritos. They also have a hot Cheetos twist on pretty much all items! Very friendly and helpful people! There is a seating area of stools on the grass if you are just stopping by for that quick bite and want to enjoy some sunshine while you eat. Ordered a mulita, 2 keeto tacos, and a carne asada super burrito. All dishes were extremely flavorful, meat was tender, and the flour tortillas were aloft and fluffy! When I am in the area, I will be back. Those in the area, you have a gem hiding in plain site! Side note, I will definitely be full for about two days from their super burrito. No complaints here! read more

Awesome little taco truck on Soscol. Grabbed 2 tacos for lunch - an asada hot Cheetos taco & a pastor vampiro. Both were huge and topped with so much meat and toppings. The hot Cheetos taco was definitely unique and both the asada and pastor meats were super flavorful. Ordering was easy and the tacos only took a few minutes to prepare. The taco truck accepts credit cards and cash. Overall a fan and totally recommend tacos from Don Carlos! read more

Food is delicious as always! The gentlemen running the truck is always kind and curious! Also puts out some great deals throughout the week!

I've lived in Napa since I was 8 years old and I'm 26, I've eaten at almost every truck in Napa at least once and this is still the #1 spot that I frequent. Pastor is absolutely delicious, you can get anything on the menu and it's going to be good. I usually get a Super Burrito or Vampiros with Pastor, everything on them and hot with a pepper on the side. It's great every single time and everyone I introduce it to thinks the same. If you like good consistent and not to mention fairly priced compared to 95% of Napa then go here. P.S. The Owner along with his Wife are extremely nice and do a lot for the community, if you're interested look into their Instagram posts. @tacosdoncarlos read more

We were craving some tacos but didn't have much time to go anywhere so we picked up some tacos from here and they are by far one of the best tacos I have ever had!

I text Carlos my order And he was very punctual and amazing customer service! Definitely a must try! read more

Tacos Don Carlos - Mexican Near Me - Napa, California

Great tacos, better people. Don Carlos and his wife are great and the tacos are delicious. Hit them up.

This is definitely the best taco truck in Napa. And I've tried them all including the local restaurants like Maria & pistola etc. I live in LA where tacos are king and this is the closest I've gotten to that or any SF mission quality food. The meats are incredibly flavorful, tender and have a tasty char on them from the grill. I don't know of any other trucks with a grill. That really sets Don apart right there. The portions are great an generous. See the pics of my chicken burrito the size of my arm! Their red sauce is awesome too. The marinade on the meats is also unique to this truck and keeps it very tender. A lot of trucks serve it to dry. They can pile on the onion & cilantro on the tacos. You know what it's like when you find a great tasting place to go to right? I found mine here. In a city with a lot of mediocre Mexican food don carlos gets it right every night. All hail the Don! Get there on the early side cause they tend to sell out a lot and you'll see why when you go. read more

Visiting Napa from Portland, OR with my wife and son on a post-pandemic road trip. We were looking to save a few bucks on lunch so we could afford the post-pandemic wine prices. TCD had 5 stars here so we walked 2 miles to get there (after a 10 mile run). I asked for chef's choice and got 2 delightful al pastor tacos on excellent legit corn tortillas. My wife had the vampiros and felt same. Son had the veggie burrito and enjoyed but it was "standard veggie burrito", however, it was not on the menu and the owner graciously whipped it up custom for him. This stretch of Soscol has many taco truck offerings but Yelp steered us right on this one. High marks! read more

Tacos Don Carlos - Tacos al Pastor - Mexican Near Me - Napa, California

I had a couple of different tacos from the taco truck a couple of weeks ago, including the "keto" taco made with a cheese tortilla. But my favorite by far was the al pastor taco. The flavor was amazing. I loved it so much that I suggested we use Tacos Don Carlos as our company party caterer. He gave us many options for the food as well as different prices. The day of the party, he showed up in his taco truck, he came in right on time, brought amazing food for a great price. Everyone in our company was raving about the food, and some even went back for seconds or thirds. If anyone is looking for a caterer for their next event, I totally suggest Tacos Don Carlos. read more

Ordered a carne asada torta with everything and only had meat, cheese, cilantro, onion, and hard crusty bread. Worst torta I've ever had!

I think there's a battle to see who's the best taco truck in Napa right now. There are so many new taco trucks here now and Tacos Don Carlos is flexing on all of them, they are the kings! The food is excellent and very tasty. You got your 1$ tacos or go a little pricier and get some handmade tortilla tacos which I definitely recommend for the best experience! The meats are good, every condiment is fresh as well as the salsas. They also have special items on the menu sometimes like the 'California Burrito' or the 'Puerco Burrito' which is a burrito wrapped in bacon! How about that! They also have a hot cheeto burrito so if you're into that ask about it! They offer tacos, burritos, vampiros, and everything else you get from any other taco truck. Carlos the owner is a great host and welcoming. Orders can be made through phone or text also. Coming from an hispanic family I can say the food is authentic and made very well. I would definently recommend stopping by for lunch or just to grab a bite. I have tried tacos, vampiros and the Puerco Burrito from their menu and everything has exceeded my expectations so I can definitely recommend any of those to you! You must try this taco spot! read more

Don't judge a book by its cover . This place has some really good looking food. Had to try it. 23 dollars for a super burrito with Cheetohs and a steak quesadilla. Super Burrito with Cheetohs- huge!! Kinda more rice then needed but the flavor wasn't just there. Meat tasted decent but that was about it.. had no kick or , mmmmmmh, factor. Rice was okay, meat was flavorful, Cheeto tasted stale. A little on the dryer side. Quesadilla , a little better flavor cause i think the cheese helped a lot with the flavorful meat, but it was small. Size of a medium/tortilla wrap folded in half, so took small tray to hold it cause it was cut in half . Added lime which was a good taste to it. Extra salsa please ? During the order I requested extra green salsa. When I received it, there was 2 small greens salsas in the burrito bag. I looked with the quesadilla tray and there was no salsa, I had to explain I wanted extra salsa and they said there was 2 in the bag. I told them that's for the burrito, can I get some for the quesadilla .. they didn't seem happy to give away 2 extra little sauces . Which the green sauce was spicy but really no flavor . I was juiced to try it but maybe next time. A friend sent me a pic of his Cheeto sprinkled burrito , looked bomb, and he didn't want to believe me, so he tried and and stated it was "dry and needed sauce". Still on a hunt for a good burrito spot in Napa. read more

Delicious! I tried the Flamin Cheeto taco steak $4 but well worth it! The green salsa adds extra flavor! The other two are alpastor and chorizo. Still delish! Keep in mind these two are made with mini tortillas so you might want to get more than 2! read more

Tried this place for the first time today I had the steak Tocos's with homemade tortillas they where amazing. Service was good prices are fair and location is key. They are a must try for sure. They are locally owned and the owner helps out with his community. read more

Did want to give an update the Don did raise his prices for his menu by a couple dollars. Did try the bacon wrapped burrito that first bite was omg amazing bite from heaven, the bacon had rendered into both the tortilla and rice. But were the bacon was wrapped on top of the other bacon it was raw , and prevented the bacon from rendering more than tortilla deep. This did add another complexity of flavor and texture, but I did have to remove more than half the bacon and at 15 dollars it missed the mark. Improve on the wrapping it will solve all the issues and if it renders into the rice for the entire burrito and no raw bacon I would convert to this burrito as my mainstay. Still amazing flavors. read more

I was initially somewhat skeptical about their one dollar tacos but decided to finally try them since my husband was raving about the food. I just have to say, I am hooked on their asada & al pastor tacos. They are the perfect size & super flavorful & satisfying. Been going on a regular basis now for about a month. You can even text your order which helps because they do get busy. read more

I love this s truck!!!! Against my husbands and my own advice we went to it a bit late and had the choice between La Pastor or steak for the super burrito we like to share. We chose the LaPastor and asked for the spiciest sauce they had. It was pretty amazing like the beef or chicken. The spicy played well off the meat. My only complaint was the sauce was cold and everything else was warm. The contrast was just not what I was expecting and didn't affect the flavor or quality of the food. I suggest if you want more meat choices get to the truck early. read more

Hands down, my favorite Truck. Top quality food and a lot of it. I had an amazing supreme steak burrito last week, and I'm still full. It's not stopping me from getting my Taco Tuesday fix today. read more

This place gave me exactly what I need in a tacos spot. Great asada on my burrito, & great pastor with my tacos. I also loved that I called in as soon as they opened & I was leaving the spot within 10 minutes of calling. Had some seats in the shade for me & my dog to wait. A must try if you're in Napa read more

I'm only giving 3 full stars for how nice the guy was that owns this. The burritos we were told were giant! The only thing actually inside this burrito is 80% rice.. 20% everything else (and that was mainly just bean) and we had asked for everything on it. No one likes to get halfway done with their burrito and still be eating rice and tortilla. Sad because I wanted to like this place. read more

Tacos Don Carlos - Mexican Near Me - Napa, California

Tacos Don Carlos has been an elusive food truck. I've seen it parked beside gas stations, churches, grocery stores, auto maintenance shops- only recently it has become part of the Century Center Food Truck Corral. The enigmatic mirage has settled down at last. Their Facebook page justifiably mocks Chipotle- https://www.facebook.com/Tacosdoncarlos/ They are NOT bland, and that's why their catering events for churches have a prayer. The name "Don Carlos" brings Verdi's classic opera to mind- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdOCYIOEnrc It was an act of faith, an auto da fe, since they were the only food truck open at the corral. I had risked commute traffic around 5... and it was worth it. I was happily surprised, just like this act of faith- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eV4-H0yZeIE I went for their vampiros (toasted/deep fried tacos from the Mexico-Arizona borderlands, like chimichangas) The chicken was perfectly cooked, tender, neither fat nor gristle. It was barbecued just right. A winner, winner chicken dinner. The guacamole was a technicolor green&the hot sauce had the right bite. The owner&server were fast&friendly, for a reasonable price. It would be nice if they had vegetarian/vegan vampiros (but not awful like the ones in Twilight)- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnJzOrHZwk8 Tacos Don Carlos has cleaned up their truck significantly since I saw them last at the Hope Center/Arbor Alliance Festival. Their truck IS clean&sparkly. The vampiros are fried, but not greasy, their house hot sauce packs a punch, and they have great little limes to add to the freshness of their tacos. Pro-tip- If you want to avoid the crowds, go around 5 pm. The roads are congested, the parking lot isn't. read more
