    The fish was old and not fresh. The french fries had a bad after taste. The order was in one of those " Card board" containers that get soggy. Not only that..... they put the cold drink in the bag with the hot food. By the time I got home....... the card board container was very moist and lost its stability. Lining the bottom of the container with " Deli Sheets" will help if " Styrofoam" containers are not used. Fries taste a lot better and fresher with cleaned frying oil in a clean fryer. Maybe add a little french Fries seasoning once fries are done. Not impressed. Food was not good.

    Swai with coleslaw, shrimps and fries. High recommend!

    They had a pop-up at a gas station near my house. I love supporting local businesses so I had to place an order. The lady and gentleman that helped me with the order were very nice. I had an order of Swai (they were out of cod), coleslaw, fries and I added the extra shrimp for five dollars. Obviously the food was freshly made. Everything was very delicious. I'm glad I added the extra shrimps for five dollars because it was very good. For $25 I thought it was a very generous amount of food, enough for two people for sure (see image). Hope they keep it up!

    Red Snapper and fries

    I stumbled upon Tony's at the Oceanside farmers market. I'm glad I did. I got the Red Snapper, which came with fries and a drink. I've never had Snapper, and it was delicious. They also season the fries to perfection. I really wanted catfish, but they were out. I'll have to get there earlier next time. This seems to be a mom and pop business. I really like supporting the little guy. They are super friendly and really appreciate the business. It shows the way they treat you.

    Snapper and french fries.

    I've driven by here a few times and always saw they had a crowd, so I decided to stop. I should've kept driving. First off, the snapper was not fresh. Fresh fish is not supposed to have a fishy taste. Then they need to change their grease because no way the fish should be this color on the outside but still soft on the inside. You can literally see the tiny black flakes from the fish grease being old. Lastly, to charge $20 for 2 small pieces of fishy tasting pieces of fish, a handful of frozen french fries, and a can of soda is absolutely diabolical.

    The food is delicious and high quality. Perfect seasoning! But because it is a pop- up, remember to check facebook for location

    This is the best catfish I've ever had. It was fried to perfection. The wings are so good and seasoned to perfection.

    It's like a pop up stand and family business so they were super friendly and extremely generous on their portions.

    Honestly.. I hate to say this.. I was at a lakeside event and thought to myself.. Lemme give these…read moreguys a try and a tri tip sandwich sounded darn good. I ordered that with a side of mac and cheese. $20 later I was given a plate with what looked like a delicious sandwich and Mac and cheese. I went to pick up the sandwich and the bottom bun must have had that meat sitting on it for 10 min.. It was completely soggy and had to use a fork to try and eat the meat which had a substantial amount of fat I should have taken it back. The Mac and cheese my kid lives.. He took one bite and didn't eat any of the rest.. I didnt either. . It was Luke warm.. And very little of any flavor. Comon guys.. If you're gonna have $20 sandwich out there.. Make it memorable. Switch out the bun.. For goodness sakes.. It would have made a big difference. You were not busy.. And even if you were.. Do the right thing.

    Please don't let my terrible photos stop you from eating this delicious BBQ…read more Yes, the prices are a little steep (similar to the prices charged by ALL food trucks) but you get a TON of absolutely delicious BBQ. We tried the pulled pork sandwich and the smoked beef sandwich. They were both terrific and you get an absolutely MOUND of meat with both dishes. The BBQ sauce used was a tad sweet but not too sweet. Both proteins were incredibly tender and juicy. We also tried the mac and cheese and beans and, as with the meats, you get a ton of whatever side you order (you get one side per plate). The mac was a little dry but still delicious. The beans were smoky and OUT OF THIS WORLD TERRIFIC. I'm not kidding. These are life-changing beans, if there can be such a thing. Frequently parked outside the Lost Abbey in San Elijo, this is a truck you want to check out. The food was served very quickly after ordering so no long wait like with most food trucks.

    I tried their Chula Vista location last month and saw they opened their taco truck back up again so…read moreI had to give them a try!! Quality is the same but dare I say even better than the chula vista location! We ordered the following: -fish tacos (must order) -shrimp quesdilla (must order) -aguachile rojo (must order) -quesabirria taco I love that they don't overcompensate with batter when it comes to their fish tacos. You can actually taste the fish and everything about it is SO flavorful! Their shrimp quesadilla was also a surprise banger! Incredibly tasty and can last as 4 meals between 2 people, the portion is HUGE! Not too salty at all but so addictive. Lastly, their aguachile is a must! I tried this at their chula vista location and it's still fire! And ofc they give you complimentary consome! This spot is a hidden gem for sure!

    Driving down University Ave it's honestly hard to miss Mariscos El Prieto. You'll see the flags and…read morethe food truck right away, that's what caught my attention. I wasn't even planning on getting mariscos that day but it felt like a sign so I took it as a little treat. It's a food truck setup with folding tables and chairs and a pretty big parking lot since the plaza itself is kind of dead. Parking was easy and there was plenty of space. I walked up and they were doing construction on the tent right above where you order and it was really loud. I feel like that could've been done during closing because it disrupted the vibe. The area is already a little rough so it just made things feel a bit off. The lady working was super sweet. She took my order, you pay right after and they do accept tap to pay which I love because I don't carry cash. They take your name and call you when it's ready. I got mine to go, waited about 10 minutes, and everything came out pretty quick. They packaged everything really well too which I appreciated because aguachile can easily spill. For the tostada they gave two packs of saltines and three tostadas which felt like a good portion. They also had fresh salsas at the truck but I skipped them since my taco already came with sauce. I ordered a fish taco and an aguachile verde tostada. I went home excited to try everything but honestly it didn't really hit for me. The fish taco was a good size with a lot of cabbage and a white sauce, but the fish was a little too soft. I wish it had more crisp and overall the flavors just weren't memorable. It's about $3.70 so fair, just nothing standout. The aguachile verde was the weakest part. Some shrimp textures were off and a few had a strange aftertaste. I've had a lot of aguachile recently and this was probably the lowest quality. I will say they were generous with the avocado and the sauce itself had a nice spicy kick, it just didn't come together overall. There was also an earthy note from the seeds that was very prominent which I have never experienced in aguach For the price, I paid around $20 with tip for both which isn't bad for the portions. It satisfied the craving in the moment but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to come back to.
