★★★★★ 5.0 Roger Rabbit · Jun 2025

This was the whittest taco place i ever been in, but it didnt dissapoint. This was my first time coming to this spot after dancing. I got some cabeza tacos, and even though the tacos look pale, the flavor was elite. Not a lot of taco trucks know how to cook the cabeza well. But this spot is definitely a favorite. Theres no seats, and tables, that was one only complaint, but I highly recommend them.

Owner: really nice. Taco very good. Best taco in the area. I love you guys, please don't go anywhere. Of course, only cash ;)

Late night tacos just really hit the spot. One of the best taco trucks in the area, cash only but it is super value. The two bite tacos nourish the soul. 6 types of meat and only $2.75 a taco. Service is super quick and they taste amazing. Always a line up because people know that this is the place for taco truck tacos.

Set in the parking lot of Nishikawa Autobody don’t overlook this tiny taco truck packing loads of flavor. Founded in the summer of 1979 while the oil crisis was driving Americans off the road and Americans started to put taco stands on wheels (aka Taco trucks). Los California Tacos enters the chat. Keeping it cash only they keep it old school. Double tortillas are the standard with an option for single. Their meat selection featuring; carne asada, el pastor, pollo, chicharron, and carnitas. You can get your tacos con todo with cebolla, cilantro, limes, and your choice of red or green salsa. And don’t forget to quench your thirst with their homemade agua frescas; horchata and Jamaica. A Pasadena staple after a night on the town, a walking distance from fun filled Colorado blvd. Don’t under

★★★☆☆ 3.0 sabrina bayha · Oct 2024

Good flavor. Fast service. Very small street tacos..two bites and it's gone. I am not exaggerating about that two bites thing. So if you are down for a $1.25 a bite then this $2.50 a taco is for you. I left hungry and went to Tops for a burger and the best fries around.
