Good tacos and reasonable prices. Fresh salsa bar and homemade horchata. It will definitely be a pit stop when driving from San Diego to Phoenix and back.

Near perfect taco spot just off the side of the road near the Foothills. Big open seating area and tacos made to order. Crispy fish & shrimp tacos with great self serve toppings, but the chipilona was even better. The order is to get the chipilona with shrimp or fish... next time. Service was friendly and prices were fair. It's just picnic tables under a tent but the ambiance is simple and good. I wish I could stop here more often.

The location is easy to miss since it's more like a taco truck than a brick n mortar. It's on the frontage road between Fortuna Rd and FootHills Blvd, closer to Foothills Blvd. Look for the white tents and waving flags. There's plenty of parking and they have tables and chairs set up in a covered area. It's very clean and efficiently run. Today is our 3rd visit in 8 days! These tacos are authentic, fresh, meaty, and there's a salsa bar to customize your own tacos. Place your order, then seat yourself to wait for your name to be called. Grab your own drink from the refrigerated case. Pay after you've eaten. Each time we've been here there's been a steady stream of customers. The word is out! Best tacos in Yuma right here.

Shrimp tacos were the best! Amazing salsa bar as well, be careful with the salsas if you can't handle heat

Great food and service a little hard to find just of south frontage behind a cyclone fence. But prices are great and so is the food.

Very good carne asada tacos. I had it to go and they had all the good toppings already in the bag. I will be back again and again.

Best tacos in Yuma area. The people are amazing and so is the food. Outdoor dining but worth it. Can't get enough of their Chipalonas Yumm

Stopped by on a Saturday at 12:28pm and not open?

They were closed on Easter weekend. Normally they open at 11am

Did they move? I was in Yuma on June 8th and their stand is no longer in the lot next to Walgreens. ☹️

Yes. 12557 South Frontage Road
