I was thinking that this would be like any other taco stand but i was sooo wrong. Man let me start off by saying that i literally was hesitant to get anything other than tacos. But i heard the vampiros were the bomb so i decided to try one. To my surprise i really loved it! So i went back and ordered another three. You have to try it for yourself! Clean truck, good service, good music! Most importantly , the food is quality!

One of the best taco places I've ever been too. The meat is season very good and the tortillas taste so fresh. The meat is really tender and tastes really organic compared to other taco places. The tacos I got were Asada and pastor. The pastor tacos were so good and marinated very well. I recommend this place. 5 stars.

Love to eat here. The first time I came was after clubbing with my cousins and the food here was so good. It's my second time here and I can definitely say that the food is good here. Recommend the quesadillas which they add carne asada and beans. So bomb! When you order your drinks, you grab them yourself in the seating area. In case you go and realize they never gave you your drink. For all those who only eat at A rating places, this ain't one of them. This place has a B rating at the moment but trust me, you'll love the food either way.

My friend was craving some tacos and said we should go here and it was actually really tasty! We had tacos, vampiros, and a quesadilla with carne asada. The tacos were super fresh, not too oily, and they had a lot of salsa and chile options that were super yummy. The vampiros had cheese and your choice of meat. The carne asada was flavorful and the cheese was melted thoroughly, but the top of the corn tortilla was a little too fried for me. Then we saw the Quesadilla with carne asada and had to try it. It was made with a flower tortilla instead of the vampiro and was way more delicious. Not too much space for sitting unless you get lucky and there's not too many people.

My favorite taco spot! Hands down! If you haven't ate tacos here then you haven't ate tacos, period. Cheap prices, great taste, great drinks, great condiments, and friendly people.! They sell quesadillas and vampiros as well (for those of you that don't know what that is, another reason for you all to go check it out). Pair them up with some tacos and a Jarritos or Sangria and you'll have yourself a golden meal. And parking is great. This place is hands down amazing! Oh and they cater!!!! (With plenty of food I must say!)

Can't believe no one has written a review for such a great place. It's a little cart out in Compton, but for tasty and cheap tacos on a weekend this is the place to go. Definitely a must! Their food speaks for itself, because it just has good flavor. But don't get me started on the condiments that accompany the food. The salsa... One of them is too hot but I don't care because I pile all of them on. "Bring on the spice! I'm trying to get spiced up". The guacamole, you better hope you stop there at the right time before its gone. The cabbage is pretty awesome on the tacos, although its kind of new to me. It must be a Sinaloense thing, after all, it does say estilo Sinaloense, but it works for me. Overall this is just an amazing stop for tacos or whatever else they serve, and its pretty much the only taco spot I think of when I'm craving tacos during the weekend on a late night.
