Carne asada tacos
Denise L.

Had tacos and nachos delivered and they were pretty solid. I enjoyed the carne asada and pastor tacos, plenty of meat. They did forget our salsa unfortunately though. Nachos were pretty good, but surprised they use the cheese sauce and not actual cheese which made it a bit soggy.

So glad that I spotted this taco food truck parked along the side on a Thursday afternoon and I can smell the aroma. The ladies are so attentive and recommend several popular dishes so I order the quesabirria filled with tender brisket meat melted cheese in a chili-based broth dipping sauce. I also choice the 3 carne pollo tacos a Mexican street style tacos thinly sliced marinated chicken served on a warm corn tortillas comes with slice of radish and lime. Simply delicious and they have tables and seats for outdoor diners. Would definitely be back next time I will have the gordita with all the stuffed fillings with cheese and meat.

Got a coupon off GrubHub so it was $20 off nice deal. The super burrito was really good. I paid 80 cents for extra cilantro and didn't see much more tho. I also tried the torta and empanada and they were good. The fried plantains were good not too sweet. I also ordered a churro but they were sold out and replaced with some lame cheesecake. Overall I would order from here again.

Quesadilla

Man I have been meaning to write a review for this place for many years, but I kept on forgetting about it. Finally I got the time to go back and try their food again. I wanted to write an unbiased review of their food with fresh memory of the taste of their delicious food. Just like how I remembered all those years ago their food is delicious as ever. Probably one of my favorite Mexican places in the entire area. They have tripas which is always always a bonus in my books and cooked to absolute perfection. Their cabeza was so tender and fatty. You cannot go wrong with carne asada either. Getting all those meats on tacos was a absolutely delicious. You can never go wrong with a quesadilla. They have so many things here I wanted to try, but I need to save room for next time. They are closed on Sundays, so be aware about that.

Super Burrito - pastor
Caroline L.

I would say this is pretty decent for the area. They also have cabeza on their menu which a lot of places don't have. They serve the food hot and fresh and cook it on the spot when you order. The downsides is that the meat (carne asada and Al pastor) was a little overcooked but the rest of the toppings in the burrito was good. There's some outdoor seating there too so you can eat it fresh. Overall I would go overall for the convenience and is decent.

Pastor, poyo, and chorizo tacos.  Yum!
Kevin B.

Delish. Came here again last night, and I was not disappointed. Great tacos, and relatively quick service. We've been coming here for years, and have never had a bad experience.

Tamale, tacos
Ron P.

Was super hyped for this place due to reviews but was a huge disappointment. Service took forever, think I waited for like 25 mins for 3 tacos and a tamale. I got one of each asada, pastor, and pulled pork tacos with another pork tamale. The tacos were pretty dry and nothing special, and the tamale was the biggest disappointment! I think it had like one small piece of shredded pork in that thing shown in the picture!

Tuesday Night, no Taco Tuesday Deal at this place but who needs that when their tacos are very worth their price. Grabbed an Al Pastor and Chorizo and they didn't disappoint. Both Delicious in their respective domains. A little disappointed that the Al Pastor didn't have pineapples in them but they did just fine on their own. Along with Chorizo, I usually dread places when I get Chorizo because it's typically a greasy choice. However, this place serves their Chorizo with hardly any grease dripping down; and that's a win in my book Both of them also came with some garnish on top and know that they come with a KICK already in case you're more sensitive on the spicy side. TAKEAWAYS: VERY LOW KEY, FAMILY OWNED, GREASE LESS CHORIZO

Pretty standard tacos. I've tried most of the taco trucks in the South Bay and these tacos are what you'd expect, but it ends there. It doesn't hold a torch to any of the taco trucks in LA and San Diego or some of the other trucks here in the South Bay Area either - mainly due to the meats lacking flavor. The Tacos de Suadero was bland and all I tasted was salsa. Most other places brown the suadero a bit, but this one was straight out the stew. It was tender though. The Buche was also overstewed and lacke texture and flavor. I like the slight chew buche has, but this one was on the pasty side. I didn't taste much of the ancho chili or the stew. I recommend stewing the buche normally, take out the meat when it's done, then reduce that stewing liquid so there's more flavor imparted before putting the buche back in. The Lengua was also way overstewed and lacked texture and salt. I like the gaminess from lengua, but all the beefiness from this was cooked off. The Al Pastor was pretty standard. There are places where you can tell they put their own spin or surprise in the marinade, but this wasn't it. The taco was dripping with oil as well. The salsas are pretty good here and very well balanced! It would be cool if they had their spin on the classic San Jose orange sauce though!

I asked for a steak burrito, but apparently it's a rice burrito and beans

You guys are terrible. You guys used to be really good but now it's just embarrassing. You guys are so stingy with the meat it's unreal how you guys get away with this? And you guys supposedly charge more because of how much it cost to run your business.

I was randomly craving a churro one day and my boyfriend surprised me with one. It was absolutely delicious. I'd give it a 5/5 for the churro. It was very crunchy on the outside and moist inside; really good balance of cinnamon and sugar. Perfectly satisfied my craving. We also got the carne asada, el pastor, and carnitas. The carne asada is pretty good but quite salty. It's slightly dry but still chewy. El pastor texture was a bit strange. It didn't feel like stripped beef but the seasoning was really good. The carnitas weren't that fatty, which was a bit surprising. Overall, the meat was pretty lean especially for the el pastor. None of the flavors are exploding and a lot of it felt pretty subtle. I think they could improve the meat flavor with longer marination and fattier meat. It doesn't feel like the meat felt as fresh as some other taco places so maybe it became a bit dry. They also fried the tortilla really well so it was quite crispy too, great texture. It didn't seem like it was fried in oil so it wasn't overly greasy and somehow tasted like a healthy taco if there is such a thing. Also loved the radish on the side. It's a good refreshing taste after each taco. Definitely will be back for an epic churro!

What are their real hours?; I ask because I'm here at 2:00pm on a Saturday at they are all closed up. And does anyone know if they take Apple Pay? Thanks

Is credit/debit accepted?

Yes

Does anyone know if the taco truck still operates in the Lucky plaza behind the Valero gas station on El Camino? I haven't seen it in that location for the last few months and wondering if it might not operate there anymore.

I was there last weekend and they were operating!

Unique food truck in Bay Area! This isn't just a food joint but it's an experience!…read more Vegetarian reviewer: To start with, I am not usually a big fan of too many eggs on my plate, but I thoroughly enjoyed their innovative creations. They have interesting dishes with paneer and chicken as well. We ordered two dishes- Leela lasun keema - This dish was intriguing, with cheese, grated egg, and a rich, spicy gravy. The portion size was generous; a single person won't be able to finish it with just three breads. It was very filling, we took back home the leftover and enjoyed it later with some rotis. They have another version of this- "kachu" with runny eggs instead of grated eggs.. well thought option! Volcano egg biryani- The dish is as interesting as its name suggests. The base is an omelette, and the rice is flavorful with bell peppers, finely chopped veggies, and aromatic spices. The center is with a tomato-based curry. The cheese on the side was amazing, and I loved it. The spicy guava drink is super refreshing with a playful mix of spice, salt, sourness, and the sweetness of guava. I really enjoyed it! They have music playing and the place is lit, creating a total vibe for spending time in the evening on a lazy weekend/ after work, or post-workout. The food is pure indulgence and covered our protein requirements with eggs, along with some fat to burn off. Kinda guilt free. Also, they have games, garba events and other many interesting things going on at different times. Superb vibes, never disappoints! Conveniently located in Sunnyvale - easy to find parking. Ask the owners for their recommendations based on your preferences. They are very nice to talk to and are super passionate about this truck, having brought something they loved from New York to the Bay Area.

They had other choices on the menu, but my kind was already set on a burrito. I went with the pastor (marinated pork) and the wifey went with carne asada (beef). A few minutes later, we had the burritos in hand. Also got 3 small containers of various salsa: red, green and a creamy orange. The last was my favorite. We split half-half, so both of us got to try both meats. The pastor was hands down the winner for me. It was soooo flavorful. Didn't really even need the salsa but adding a bit gave it another layer of flavor. I also happened to have some avocados and put a few slices in my burrito, which elevated it to another level if I do say so myself They accept cash or card but cash is a bit cheaper.

They take card, but there's an up-charge for it. The order: Super Burrito (asada) $12: I'm not playing on the price, check the photos. Delicious burrito that was a nice size and excellent price point. The tortilla tasted so nicely toasted and had a crisp at the edges. Along with your choice of meat, the burrito has Spanish rice, avocado, onions, salsa, beans. What else do you need? The length was almost my entire forearm, might have been actually. I was also given two sauces: a cilantro green sauce and (chipotle maybe) a red sauce. I did not receive the orange sauce mentioned in other reviews. Remember to request what you'd like. The second time I went, they gave me red sauce and orange sauce. Minus 1 star because of slightly inconsistent quality. When I went the second time, the fillings were still great, but ratio was different than the first time. It made the burrito taste different, no crispiness. Still good, but seemed more like a mid burrito I wouldn't have been raving about. BUT I did go right before closing compared to right after opening, which I can understand could make a difference.

The best of the bunch was the dahi batata puri, but it still didn't quite hit the spot. It was definitely on the sweeter side and I felt like the dahi/yogurt wasn't as creamy as I prefer. The chinese bhel was okay, but didn't have much flavor. Lastly the ragda pattice had so much potential. The flavor was there, but it was insanely spicy- even as someone with a med/high spice tolerance. You could feel the burn traveling down to your stomach. All of us found it unbearable and worse of all felt the affects for a day after. Perhaps we ordered the wrong dishes but after the all the discomfort of the meal- I don't feel inclined to return.

Yesterday, I ordered a Vada Pav, Shalimar Egg Mughlai (on their recommendation from their list of egg dishes), and a Veg Frankie -- and honestly, none of it lived up to the hype(5 stars currently) or price point. Vada Pav: It was okay. The "mirchi" served alongside was literally a raw Thai green chili. Really? At least pan-fry it with some salt and oil to enhance the flavor. For over $10 with taxes, this was already pricier than better Vada Pavs you can get at places like Elco Drive, and yet it offered nothing exceptional. Frankie: This one made me genuinely angry. It was a soggy maida roll stuffed with the same aloo masala from the Vada Pav, plus a few sad shreds of cabbage. That's it. And they had the audacity to charge $12 for it. ($1.50 for cheese, lol I am glad we didn't add)This isn't a Frankie -- it's a lazy repackaged Vada Pav with no flavor or creativity. They threw in some pickled jalapeños on the side, which only added confusion. If you're running a fusion menu(well partially), at least mention it upfront instead of misleading customers. Egg Shalimar Mughlai: At $13, it was passable but still not impressive. The bun on the side was not toasted or anything. Better than the Frankie, but nothing I'd recommend or return for. I was so excited for trying this place but, overall, this place is overpriced, underwhelming, and frankly disappointing. If your Vada Pav and Frankie are practically identical, maybe inform customers before they order both. I wouldn't recommend Maya Kitchen -- save your time, appetite and money and go somewhere else. Thank me later.

A fantastic balance of bold tangy flavors and crispy-soft textures with the raw diced onions giving a sweet sharpness. My only gripe is I requested it to be spicy but it was more mild-medium spicy.

Steep increase from $11 (food truck) to $18. I get it that a sit-in place will be more expensive than truck but this is a huge jump for ground meat kabab. Lamb chops for example would be ok at this price point not ground meat kababs. Chicken Egg Roll and Paneer Egg roll: both were delicious but expensive. Kids loved them. Overall, I love the food but it is too expensive for the quantity. It is high time the owners either reduce prices or increase quantity of the portions.
