This is a high volume and heavy repeat customer location which specializes in using higher end meat and oils. The green sauce (mild) is amazing on anything - the medium sauce (red) is for something hot. They also have a third sauce that’s really really hot.

It’s very tough to consistently provide high volume food without error but you will find this is one of the best trucks in town and is constantly under attack from competitors and even the city (it’s drawing so many from local restaurants the city is harassing them for petty changes.

Don’t let a few of the negative reviews take away from the fact that this is the truck to beat and most everyone knows it.

Have i had a order that was in error? yes - did i have any trouble correcting it? absolutely not.

This is a local gem - get some.

Good food and definitely worth the price, these repeat reviews about orders being expensive didn't look at the prices prior to ordering. Best truck on 8th st.

Torta de asada was very good but whenever I get a torta I expect some slices of avocado. This one had none. (Am I confusing it with a milanesa torta; avocado is one of the ingredients.)

This is excellent food. I usually get tacos. I don’t see a schedule in their menu stating what days they make the salsa HOT but i know now for “Taco Tuesdays” i will be ordering them from another place or not at all. 90% of the time the tacos are fantastic and i always order them *4 tacos, Asada EVERYTHING. At least once per week the salsa is fire hot. i can’t eat them without my mouth painfully burning. I know some people appreciate the oral inferno but sadly i cannot abide. It is my only complaint as the salsa is usually in medium-hot edible range, for me. Awesome service and a short wait even when the line is long and tables packed. Gracias senoras y senioritas!!!

Should of gone to Jessica next to it. Well, I am due now on. Tried this spot and it is just lackluster. Pastor plain....lengua was plain and they didn't even use the verde sauce.

I just got home after purchasing 10 tacos from here. My wife ordered 7 tripa tacos and 4 asada plain tacos (we only got 3, not 4). She was charged $35 for this order. I did not realize tacos were this expensive. 😬 I still don’t understand how the 10 tacos add up to $35 but oh well. I was looking forward to the tripa tacos, the tripa looked raw. I do not recommend it at all. 🤮 It’s not worth going back to figure out the prices… I will not go back to this truck. I’m so dissapointed.

This truck used to be my favorite up until recently their quality & service has been on the decline while prices going up like crazy. Tonight's order was now our final visit; My fiance got home with our takeout order to discover ALL of our tacos have onions, cilantro & salsa when he clearly had a discussion when ordering explaining only meat on everything. Then no phone number to call them to ask if we can get a replacement or refund. $29 for 9 tacos to go in the garbage!
And why does the universe do these things to us when we're tired, hungry and already having a bad day!?!

DONT GO HERE THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF, I PAIED 32.00 for 7 tacos, 3 asada and 4 tripas. Didn't relise until after I paid and it went through, when I went to ask why so much for the taco they said that prices change depending on the meat, I looked at the price of meat and it was 2.00 a taco was never said that it would cost double. Will not go here again an will share my experience with workers as I work for prep for other food vendors in the areas, and will let other know that they will skip you 3 number ahead if you ask why so much on price.
