Order: 1 - Carne Asada burrito no crema 2 - Pastor tacos Both items are very good. Meat is very flavorful and abundant. The burrito had a good ratio of ingredients, not too much rice. Tacos tortillas had a nice crisp to it; preventing it from getting too soggy. I moved to this area a few years ago from fruitvale where my favorite trucks are. It's been tough to find a truck in my new neighborhood. I was very happy to stumble across the burrito truck. I will be a repeat customer. Thank you.
East bay burrito review #52 Initial taste - 5/7 Meat - 6/7 Beans - 3/7 Cheese - 4/7 Rice - 5/7 Tortilla - 5/7 Salsa - 6/7 Overall 5/7 rounded up. This burrito tastes better than the sum of its parts, though could be improved. The steak is tasty and not greasy. The salsa verde adds a lot. Most ingredients were alright. The whole beans bring it down as well as the small amount of cheese. Not bad as at.
Best food truck EVER! this place I like you can call your Order in everything on the menu is good they are always nice
Seriously one of the best taco trucks in the Bay Area! I recommend their tortas, tacos and scopes. Great food, great people.
Just what I was looking for!!! Authentic, tasty Mexican food with very reasonable prices and a ton of food! And it's on a food truck. Thankfully, they park in the same place every day. I know because I've been there three times already. Not everything is awesome, but good enough for me to give it five stars. The service is really good, but expect it to take a little bit of time as they make everything to order. Not a long time but just more than your average fast food joint. FOOD: Excellent! I love the carne asada and the al pastor and the carnitas. The chicken was good, too. But go for the carne asada if you only have one meat choice. The tacos are excellent and I love the pickled garnishes that come with it. Interestingly, they don't have any salsa to go with it. I haven't asked so maybe you just have to ask. But it's tasty enough without it. Both the crispy and the soft taco are excellent, but I lean toward the crispy since it's harder to find a GOOD crispy taco (plenty of mediocre ones out there). I've also had the burrito which is filling and huge but I prefer the tacos. Oh, and the beans are regular pinto beans and not refried. Rice is good, too. Sopes was nicely done. Oh, and fries are good, too. SERVICE: Not the quickest, but worth the wait. The people are really nice and they do a great job wrapping up the food to keep it safe while you get to where you plan on eating it. Friendly service all around! COST: Very reasonable and good portion sizes, too. Usually food trucks are exorbitantly expensive but this one was terrific in comparison. Will be coming back again and again.
Pretty damn good burrito truck, if ya ask me. I visit frequently and except for the occasional mess up (ingredients I didn't ask for, cold burrito, etc.) the fare fairs well. The young gal and guy behind the little window are always friendly and usually remember exactly what I want. And the veggie breakfast burrito? Out of this galaxy, solar system, allll dat. The potatoes are crispy--as it should be--and the salsa verde is the perfect compliment to a multilayered experience for your tastebuds. Another favorite are the veggie tacos, which are a little overpriced but still worth scrounging up a few extra dollars, if available. The only thing I don't like about this taco truck is how dang tempting it is! I seriously wonder if I'll ever be able to visit Jack London Square during midday on a week day without succumbing to the sultry allure. Probably not.
