    Breakfast burrito

    The señor and señora at the location were very nice and welcoming, their burrito was very good they even brought us out extra sauce for our burritos. Thank you and I will be back!

    Al pastor & cabeza. Taco special is $6 for 5 tacos.

    Excellent prices, speedy service. Cash or Venmo only. Limited seating area but it's a taco truck so...

    Tacos are soooo good here. I ordered one of each: chicken, carne asada, Al pastor. I can't decide which was my fav. All were good. The tortillas are soft and didn't tear. Tender meat. Seasoned well. And only $1.25 each. Can't wait to come back

    Their supreme farne asada burrito is delicious. I took my first bite out of that and felt the sauce inside my mouth and it was good. This is a place I would recommend for sure and their tacos are also great.

    This is best taco truck in town. The food is excellent and the owners are really nice

    One of the best mexican food place around the chico area! Even though it's a taco truck without much space to sit and eat, I would still rather get my carne asada burrito from here than any sit down restaurant in town. The prices are also very cheap for the large portions they give you. It is worth a try!

    Best Birria in Chico! I've been to a few places and they were okay but the consume never had a lot…read moreof flavor. Well Mas Amor was amazing - meat is tender and flavorful and the consume is tasty and has some good flavor! Order the BIRRIA!! I should have asked for extra cilantro and onion but we had a wonderful lunch! The decor is so cute and the lighting is calming and nice. Love the artwork super creative and beautiful pieces! The marigold garland on the ceiling is a nice touch and the music videos were on point. It felt like we had gone on a journey and left Chico! I had the Birria Quesadilla with consume and mom had Birria nachos! Neither disappointed for sure. The meat is so tender and flavorful and added a nice touch to the nachos! I was surprised my mom even ordered Birria but she was happy she did. We didn't order chips and was happy we didn't because between the nachos and Birria quesadilla it was the perfect amount of food. Washed it down with a Modelo and couldn't have been happier! Makes me want to go back for the Birria Ramen!! The salsa was served in the cutest little clay containers on a beautiful clay heart plate. The dishes were great and so was the food - I highly recommend trying them out I'm sure the rest of the food is good too! Can't wait to try more from the menu. They have a food truck also off of Nord - will have to try that too!!

And I've been trying to go to new places in Chico to renew my appreciation for the town and what it has to offer. Relleno plate - the bomb! Relleno was fresh no seeds no stem and amazing flavor! Rice and beans same and on point. Chips and salsa - yummy flavorful and crunchy! Delisious dipped in the beans with some rice!! Al Pastor taco - I never had been served stripps but the flavor was great and it was a nice sized taco! Great salsa on top too! Went back and we crafted two burritos Relleno burrito with carnitas - this was fire and on point the flavors were perfect and it fed me three times! Chili verde burrito - wet with chili verde on top! The sauce is amazing and different so full of flavor and was a perfect burrito! Horchata is the bomb also - I have a hard time with some places because of the thickness or lack of flavor and theirs does not disappoint it was delicious! Go and eat there or get take out everything is made fresh and tastes amazing! Great staff also - friendly and nice to chat with!! Can't wait for the new menu item coming soon!!

    Don't enjoy giving poor reviews, but if I'd've seen the current reviews I likely wouldn't have gone…read morehere. We found it by accident and were impressed by the menu, but the food was just not good. We ordered the shrimp ceviche plate ($19.99), chile relleno/chicken enchilada plate ($18.50), and fish ceviche tostada ($7.50). The ceviche was basically a pico de gallo, lacked flavor and salt/spice, and the shrimp appeared and tasted to have been canned- tiny and scarce- really couldn't tell there were any shrimp at all. Didn't realize it would be so watery, so if you choose to try the ceviche tostada, you might wanna get to the tostada shell before it gets soggy. The enchilada sauce lacked flavor and the cheese was grainy and mushy; the chile relleno- the chile was soggy, flavorless, and not at all firm, and the cheese quickly seized up like a thick glue and was also flavorless. They have a chips and salsa bar where you serve yourself. Unfortunately, the chips had no salt; the salsa options were decently flavored. The jalapenos had flavor. Customers pay when they order at the counter and I was charged a $.75 "No Cash Fee" for using my credit card (probably standard, yeah?). Like most places these days, the lowest tip option is 15%, which I selected to give the benefit of doubt. Lastly, I had to wipe the bench before sitting, and the chair back was sticky when I pulled it out to sit down. This was probably the worst almost-$60 I've ever spent on food that looked so promising. And as I said, I really don't enjoy giving poor reviews, but maybe this will help someone make a decision.
