He loves this food truck. So I knew I had to try, especially pupusas which I haven't had in years and my coworkers said these were the best in the area. And it did not disappoint because it was so good! It was $5 per pupusa and there are three styles. I had the mixta/revuelta. I kid you not I haven't had good Latin American food since high school and it knocked me back years. It came with a generous bag of curtido, which is similar to coleslaw except the sauce was lighter and the cabbage was chunkier. The pupusas themselves were large and three made me very full. I could've just ordered two. They also had a pretty large completely filled cup of salsa roja. Service was speedy and they accept credit and debit cards too. The staff are bilingual in English and Spanish. The food truck is in the parking lot of O'Malley's, an Irish themed sports bar. I would love to eat this before or after a night out. There is a tented seating area to eat on site immediately outside or if you are going to the bar you can take your food with you. The bar doesn't serve food, so this is THE FOOD, and it's GREAT food.

The cook on this was exceptional and you can taste the pineapple marinade & the crispy charred pork wow this was so yummy! For condiments: Go for green sauce, pico de gallo, and spicy red sauce.

It's really 3.5 on a good day, 2 stars on a bad day. Very inconsistent. Depends who is cooking. Lately they often have lemons instead of limes, presumably to save money somehow. Very cheap and leaves a bad taste in my mouth. There is no lime shortage in the Bay Area right now. They charged me $1.25 for like maybe an ounce of sour cream. It's totally arbitrary whether you get charged - mostly if you just ask after paying, they'll just give it to you. Which makes me feel like a sucker when I forget the order of operations - seems like just a convenience tax on people who don't sweat a dollar. Had some of the worst birria ever today. I was psyched that my taco was loaded with meat, but it's pretty flavorless. This place is down the street from me. It's cheap and quick. I wish the food were better quality and more reliable.

Each taco was $3.75 so really good price for the bay area. I grabbed all three salsas as well. The carnitas taco as a whole, eaten properly with a lime squeeze and the salsa was really good. I loved it. The salsa paired perfectly with the carnitas and was actually spicy like it should be. The tortillas also where actually heated through too. The carnitas alone. Good tasting, but not as moist as it should be. I suspect either A. After chopping they didnt mix a little of the juices or B. They didnt cook it long enough in the lard & beer, or C. They didn't use lard. I'm very happy though that they did the more common fat/oil cook method vs. The orange juice etc. method that IMO isnt as good tasting. Regardless it went so well with the salsa and the salsa was so fantastic they still get a bay area 5/5 and a San Diego/TJ/Mexicali 4/5.

Very solid taqueria featuring some of the best pupusas in the area…read more Today I had a pupusa revuelta (cheese, chicharrón, and beans) and another with carne asada and cheese. Both are hand-made to order with fresh masa and come out so hot you're gonna want to let them sit for a minute before digging in, if you can restrain yourself. The revuelta pupusa has a soft and flavorful filling that comes together kind of like cheesy frijoles charros. It's kind of the classic pupusa filling and I think for good reason. The smooth and well-mixed filling ensure every bite has masa, each element of the filling, and ideally a healthy pile of curtido and salsa. The asada pupusa is a little bit more of a novelty, but the asada itself is solid and I like the variety of having different feelings to work with. If this is your first time here, I recommend going with the asada. My only critique of these pupusas, which is a critique of pupusas I have in general, is that they could use a little more filling, particularly around the edges where the bites can be kind of masa heavy. Pro tips: they just got kiosks for ordering and you won't see a pupusa with asada on there as an option, but you can do so if you order at the register. By default, pupusas come with a traditional thin tomato sauce that isn't spicy, but I always ask them for the salsa they bring out when you get chips instead. It's chunkier, spicier, and slightly more acidic and I think it pairs better with the pupusas. I ask for this and plenty of curtido when I order takeout from here.
