They gave us someone else’s order by mistake, but when we went back they corrected it. Our fish tacos were excellent and at only $3 each were a great deal. Note you’ll be standing next to the highway, but everyone waiting there were friendly and helped us translate the Spanish.

Honestly, these tacos I ordered from El Grullense were the best tasting tacos I have ever had. It makes me sad that I live so far away, or else I would be here 3 times a week. The photo is from my hotel room table. The food truck does not have tables.

Tried this spot for the first time. The area felt a bit sketchy, but the food was totally worth it! The staff were super chill, and the red salsa packs some heat — perfect if you like it spicy like I do 😋. Plus, they accept Apple Pay, which is a nice bonus. Totally coming back to this place again. 👍👍

I have always enjoyed the asada tacos. Whether I order them with or without their spiciness, I find myself not wanting to put them down. However, on this occasion, I decided to order a Milanesa torta, as well. I was...disappointed. It seemed as if it had already been fried once, then dropped back in the fryer to reheat it. I couldn't bring myself to finish it.

I've been dieing for tacos de lengua for months.. every other taco truck I went to in Salinas was always sold out. I had seen this place but it's way over on the east side so I never made the drive since I live in monterey. But let me tell you this New Year's Eve I decided I was going to have my tacos and they were amazing! Service was fast food was fresh the plate was full and they even gave me a gift! I can't speak enough volume into how good this spot is. I'm a traveling healthcare worker and the first thing I do is look for the best tacos in town wherever I'm at. And this right here hands down wins the big prize of the best I've ever had!
