Best tacos in the area and for a good price!!! I love the tenderness of the meats and the salsa that come with it! There is definitely some heat in their salsa! Thank you!

These tacos are good, but there was a pebble in one of them this time... This is only the second time I go here, which is a little sad.

This taco truck is along 3 other taco trucks && I am so glad I picked this one! The tacos were delicious. I ordered two tacos asada and two alpastor. They gave me extra lemon and jalapeño, they even threw in some grilled jalapeños with grilled onions. The tortillas are yellow corn which are my favorite for tacos. The only thing that stopped them from 5 stars was the alpastor. It was super basic no flavor. Can't wait to go back and try other things on the menu!

Unacceptable! Especially when you're suppose to have your highest cleanliness standards throughout the pandemic!

I bit into this burrito and it had a hair in it. Wish I could say Its a joke. Someone wasn't wearing a hair net or was not wearing the proper equipment but this is unacceptable! Especially when you're suppose to have your highest cleanliness standars during the pandemic.

Tacos de asada con todo, yellow corn tortillas!!! The best!!

Came late at night and seen other taco trucks here but most of the people were waiting in line at Tacos El Hidalguense. You know it's good when they a line late at night. I was so hungry that I didn't take a picture of my tacos but they were delicious. Got my tacos about 15 minutes after I ordered. They were fresh and delicious. read more

Came here order two asada burritos supreme without salsa and extra sour cream and 4 tacos asada no salsa. They handed my order to the wrong person. They remade his burritos and supposedly remade mine. Both my burritos were made wrong and they were made with chicken, extra salsa in them which made them too spicy to eat. My tacos had salsa as well. I spent $30. Not coming back here. read more

We came here for the first time, we were visiting my daughter in Turlock. While driving we noticed this place and it looked decent on the outside. The tacos are expensive and not flavorful at all. For 14 tacos we paid $30.00 they said they do not give detail receipts. Will for sure not be coming back. read more

We were visiting from out of town and decided to stop by because of the excellent reviews this place had received. When we first walked in, one of the employees asked what I wanted. I explained that I was waiting for my husband before ordering. She responded by saying, "Oh well, they're waiting," referring to the customers behind me. I immediately replied, "That's fine, go ahead!" so the other customers could order first, but her reaction afterward felt dismissive and somewhat annoyed. We later placed and paid for our order. Shortly after, my husband decided he wanted a Biscoff latte instead, so we politely asked if the drink could be changed. Another employee kindly stepped in and said she could do it, which we appreciated. I specifically asked for the drink to be changed to an iced Biscoff latte. Unfortunately, when the drinks came out, mine was still hot instead of iced. I went back up respectfully and let them know there had been a mix-up. Both employees looked at each other and chuckled in what came across as annoyance. I even apologized for the inconvenience, but the first employee responded by saying, "We are just too busy." I completely understand that working in customer service can be overwhelming, and I always try to be patient and understanding. However, at the time there were only a couple of seated customers and just the two of us waiting for our drinks, so the comment felt unnecessary. By that point, the interaction from the moment we walked in had already made the experience feel uncomfortable. We ended up grabbing our drinks and leaving disappointed. I usually enjoy leaving positive reviews, especially for small businesses, so it was unfortunate because we came in excited after reading such wonderful things about this place.
