They have good food, but warning to non-hispanic people. They will over charge you and charge you 20$ for a burrito. We been going to them for years and I've always had my co-worker ordered the same burrito for me and it was always 8$ and it came with charro beans. Today costed me 20$ and no beans. I questioned red hair lady and she said I added jalapeños that's why its 20$. I didnt add any even if I did, shouldn't been 12$ for jalapeños.. she gave me back 4$ in change which still costed me 16$ for it. Got into the car, opened up my burrito and no jalapeños.. never again sorry, you lost a long time customer and all my co-workers from out company for scamming.

Food is extremely good, like super good especially their beans. The service is like a restaurant but outside, they bring the food right to you fresh and hot, the sauces are super good but are spicy too. The atmosphere is not the best due to noise and people, but I like how there is cover from the sun and tables to eat. The drinks are good too, being chilled. They play great music

I have come here often because it is close and the food had been decent in the past. There are definitely much better taco trucks, but I will never come back to this place again! I just spent $80 for tacos for three people and they wanted to charge me more money the minute I asked for an extra salsa. One of the small salsas barely covers two tacos. This plate is 6 small tacos for one person. They just lost my business after being across the street for 14 years. When people get greedy it can all go downhill.

Had a fellow co-worker bring back some food. She says service is always great and the food is awesome!.Ordered a torta bistec and two quesadillas de lengua. Also came with frijoles and fire salssita. Food was really good and will definitely be headed back to try more stuff.

Got here just after 10pm and the place was still bustling! The owner was very gracious, he answered all my questions, food came out fast & hot, and man was it DELICIOUS! Had both the steak tacos with avocado and the birria tacos! The charro beans were outstanding! Made with jalapeños, delicious but expect a nice kick! To drink I had the Jamaica agua fresca and I couldn't be happier with my dinner tonight! Highly recommend it! 👍
