★★★★☆ 4.0 Brownshuga Mo Smith · Apr 2025

Went for lunch with my sister. I got chorizo fries without the guacamole and pico. My sis got birria fries. She says not enough of the broth so the meat was dry for her and fatty. She got extra onion and they piled it on for her. The chorizo fries were ok, the chorizo was not as flavorful as I am used to. Service was great, friendly and fast. I will give it another shot because I want to try their carnitas.

The owner was very friendly and had a wide variety of food. Sandwiches, hamburgers, fries, tacos, burritos, and much more. After hours of driving it was a great stop for myself and my family.

We were just staying the night at the hotel and wanted to stop by for dinner. We got to Eureka pretty late and checked in. By the time we got to the truck, they started to close. Until the owner (I assume) saw us and opened up to make us food, seriously so nice!! We didn't expect that. The food was great, nothing to complain about. It was not crazy spicy. Guacamole was fresh, and it was so good! Made me really full. Burritos were big! Check them out, really friendly people <3

I went there to get a burrito and some tacos. They were out of pastor today, but the carnitas tacos i got instead were very good. I also got an asada taco and it was pretty good as well. I didn't try the carnitas burrito supreme because its for someone else, but i imagine it was also pretty tasty. However, it's the style of burrito where it's topped with sauce/lettuce/sour cream and I definitely prefer the burritos with everything inside, wrapped in foil, especially at taco trucks. The topped burritos are a little unweildy to eat in a car. I gave the atmosphere only 3 stars because it's a taco truck in a motel parking lot, the atmosphere can't be that great. It was fine all things considered, though. *They gave me a jarritos for free in exchange for me writing this review.

Vibe was amazing, tacos were delicious and I absolutely recommend getting the asada torta! Overall my only complaint was with the wait time, but if you’re looking for a good authentic Mexican taco this is the spot!
