Waited LONG time to be here and unfortunately was a disappointment…read more Now, as a Mexican, I have certain expectations about a taco place and to receive exactly as they advertise. The goods: - Fast service - Good portion meat-tortilla ratio. - Good green salsa The disappointments; 1.- They advertise and have it on menu as TROMPO, and I was served PASTOR... they are THE SAME MEAT, however, the difference? The cooking method. Trompo is the marinated meat that you put in the upside down rotisserie stick to turn and get cooked and charred in the fire directly. Pastor is the same meat but cooked ON THE GRIDDLE. Sooo, they advertise trompo and although the stick had the meat there, as I waited and intentionally put attention to it once I received my tacos, the meat rotisserie never moved ...actually, the meat was in an aluminum container and passed onto the griddle. Not every taco truck has trompo, because of its cooking process , so I was veeeery excited to try them just to receive what the others have. Also, the meat was tough; good flavor but tough. 2.- The "fajita" I dont think it was fajita but BISTEK. They are different cuts of meat. Fajita is the SKIRT steak and bistec could be milanesa meat... is thinly sliced and it has different texture and flavor. Also it was veeery very chopped, like almost with the processor, which is usually what they do with bistek since the cut of meat is not as juicy as fajita. It had okay flavor but not awesome. 3.- The tortillas were not soft/oily enough but just tough and even on the toastier side, which if they would have been oiled, it would have worked. 4.- The red salsa was a NO go. It tasted like chile, water and much salt. However the green one was good. 5.- This is NOT food relatedbut its a pet-peeve that even has a slang word in Spanish... "pichicateado/pichicato" and it means when someone or something is "juuuuust enough to pass by or to make it". I ordered 8 tacos total, within 2 people in 2 orders. I received 1 napkin, 1 tiny portion of grilled onion, 1 jalapeño, 1 tiny portion of onion and cilantro... all for the 8 tacos. Like brooo!! This is what in Mexico we call pichicato, so you give me juuuust barely enough to put a bit piece of those on each taco, like sorry but NAHH!! Sorry but after a long wait and expectation of this taqueria after all the noise on Instagram.... This is a NO going back for me. Best of luck and hopefully they do see the reviews as a constructive criticism because they already have a great clientele, just improve the food.

This is a great little taco truck! It's a perfect example of doing one thing and doing it right, or…read morerather, they do 2 things right. There are 2 different types of meat and you should definitely try both: Trompo: marinated pork roasted on a spit with pineapple. Bisteck :beef cooked on the flat top in its own juices. Both of these are served on double layered corn tortillas with onions and cilantro. I posted a photo of the menu, and to clarify the for the non-Spanish speakers the Gringas is the trompo meat in a flour tortilla with melted cheese...similar to a quesadilla. Campechanas is both meats in with melted cheese in a flour tortilla. Piratas is bisteck in a flour tortilla with melted cheese. The meats are delicious, and I'll definitely be back. This truck seems to be permanently located on this corner, which is somewhat unfortunate because there isn't much visibility here. It's a great neighborhood truck, for sure.

We had been eyeballing this place for days now, so we decided to make it the first spot in our taco…read morecrawl. It is a tiny place, it would be hard for two people to work inside, so what they did is bring a trompo outside where the cook is watching it carefully and cutting the shreds of meat as it cooks. The trompo tacos (pastor) are what they use as a hook, they are $1 dollar and there is a man outside cutting the meat as you watch, of course you want to stop. We ordered two tacos each, corn tortillas, and did not regret it. This little place has the best corn tortillas we've had in town, the meat is nicely seasoned, not too overwhelming on any one ingredient, there are many places advertising tacos for $1 now-days, but they may not be the best, however, these are pretty good. I will definitely return when I'm craving pastor.

Size isn't everything (#1), but the enormity of the tortas cannot be understated enough. Even the…read morename, Tortas Gigantes El Enmascarado, is a mouthful and is literal in the sense of how massive each of these sandwiches truly are. When it comes to these delicious tortas, every bite truly counts. The name "El Mascarado" might literally be "the masked one" but references the lucha libre (#2) culture and is a huge culture symbol in Mexico. As a result, the decor is plastered with luchadores on the walls, tables, and throughout the interior of the place. There are only a handful of seats and folks coming in are often getting takeout instead. The tortas are priced at nearly $17 each but are the equivalent of 2.5-3x the size of a regular torta. The prices have risen nearly a $1 a year in the last 3 years, so foodflation is in full effect. Each come loaded with a myriad of meats, cheeses, sauces, and are overwhelmingly stacked. I have a soft spot for the la floja, which is scrambled eggs with sausage, ham, onion, queso fresco, and avocado. The campechana is their version of meat lovers, which has longaniza, grilled meats, sausage, with melted cheese and avocado. Big appetites can shoot for their mega torta, which is known as la quebradora, which has milanesa, chorizo, sausage, ham, melted cheese, roasted onions, pork marinade, topped with chipotle sauce and avocado. At $23, it will put anyone into an immediate (but satisfying) food coma. Non-torta items include tacos, quesabirria, gorditas, alambres, carne asada / pastor fries, chilaquiles, flautas, and even birrita ramen. They also have feature a cheetelote ($9), which is basically an elote (#3) but with cheetos as a base. There are also hot dogs, salchipapas, cheeto pies, and hamburgers with similar gigante toppings as the tortas. The staff is constantly hustling and bustling and don't have time to waste for people holding up the line. Spanish is preferred but English is doable. Highly recommend calling ahead of time or ordering online (#4) and having the food ready for pickup. ___________ (#1) Can you fit this entire torta in your mouth? Didn't think so.
