    Taco prices. October 22, 2025
    Eric S.

    $4.16 for a fish taco. Apparently fish tacos are $2.50 on Taco Tuesdays. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Music is a little louder than I would prefer.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]For coming at lunchtime, this place had lots of customers and had the pleasure of talking to a few that come regularly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice shaded patio area for food truck, which is nice during sunny San Diego summers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also had heaters and music, which is nice specially since it's cooling down this winter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got aguachile verde and quesabirria. The quesabirria was good but they limes with no juice at all and a tiny amount of sauce. The aquachiles was excellent and better than most of the restaurants i have had it at. If you're simply driving the Southbay or you're looking for a good place to get lunch during work, I recommend this place.

    Fish and shrimp tacos. Don't sleep on those sauces.

    I always drive by this food truck parked here in Chula Vista and decided to give them a try. So glad I did, because now I have a good taco truck option close to home. I just ordered a shrimp and a fish taco. Probably should have tried more because the other orders that were coming out of the truck looked very appetizing. The tacos I ordered were delicious. I really liked that the batter on the fish wasn't too thick or overwhelming. The tomatoes, onions and cabbage were fresh and crisp. I think the sauces they give you really elevate the tacos. A chipotle cream sauce and a cilantro sauce really upped the flavor profile. Overall, a good spot for a taco craving. I definitely have to return to try some of their other items on their menu.

    Carne Asada Fries w/ Orange Sauce

    Hands down the Best Carne Asda Fries in Chula Vista! Cheaper than TEG but has more flavor and their sauce is AMAZING!

    Birria Grilled Cheese Sandwich

    Came here on a Saturday afternoon for a quick lunch. It's located on the side of one of Eastlake's main streets in a parking lot right off the road. Kind of super random placement not gonna lie but also convenient at the same time to local residents. Looking at past reviews, it does sound like this truck is newer and replaced another one. I ordered the Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Birria and it was amazing. The bread is buttered and toasted perfectly, and the birria tasted great. I honestly wouldn't order any tacos here, one taco was around 4-7 dollars EACH. They look really good but I wouldn't be able to justify one taco for $6 when you can get a whole burrito for around $10 from the same menu. I'm guessing the taco price is because most of the options are seafood. There are some tables under a huge tent right in front of the truck, so seating wasn't an issue at all. They also have condiments and napkins on the tables so you don't have to worry about getting messy!

    SO GAS. We've tried the octopus tacos, fish tacos, and their aguachile. All were SO good and my family has already gone multiple times.

    The fish taco and shrimp cocktail are super! Must try place in Eastlake. Try to avoid lunch time, they are too busy and hard to find seats.

    It's been awhile & I gladly like to update my review here up to 4 stars! One of my fav taco shops…read morein SD. At first I gave them a great review & last time not so great due to prices & portions. Well now over the years their prices are better than other taco shops & portions have gotten bigger. Tho they only have 3 tacos on the menu, Carne Asada, Birria, Adobada, they are good & they have one of the better Birria soup/broth in SD. Their carne asada is one of the best in SD, so juicy & soft I love it, their Birria taco is good too but I prefer their order of Birria or broth & their Adobada is ok just a bit too marinated for me. They also have burritos, tortas & Mullitas & I recommend the Carne Asada form in those because I believe they have one of the best Carne Asada meats in SD. The customer service is really good, cooks are cool & fast & the girls on the register are really nice & the place is always clean. And you know the best part, they have a dispensary/weed store next door so you can buy a joint & go smoke a joint in your car & then walk here & get a few tacos & Birria broth, now that's a perfect breakfast or lunch, tacos & weed go hand & hand baby :) Overall a good little hole in the wall taco shop if you don't want crazy long lines & good service & good tacos & Birria meat or broth this is your place. I even met the Baseball player Adrain Gonzalez here (you can see in my pics) & had tacos on the table next to him & talked baseball a bit & no I was not high, at that moment. So keep up the good job Poblano's & staff & see you soon amigos :)

    Since we were shopping at Home Depot we had to swing by for a quick snack. Authentic street taco…read moreflavor from TJ. Most definitely a MUST try. The hubby had the burrito (smaller than average). I had 2 street tacos. Everything was so flavorful. Quick service & chill vibes. * Burrito Mixto * Quesataco De Birria * Quesataco De Asada #DiningWithTheAndersons #ComidaMexicana #Tacos #tacoselpoblano #YummyGoodness
