    Great food! The tacos are worth the trip over! I also recommend the soup. Really flavorful! These pictures don’t do the flavor justice!!

    It's eye opening! Sooooo tasty and great value also Best carnitas I've had so far in town. They only have outside seating since they are a trailer. But they have a sink and faucet to wash our hands and it was pretty neat. If you want to get carnitas, this is the first place I recommend!!

    The best carnitas in the city. The food is usually ready pretty quickly. Top notch buche, too. Beans are ready after 4.

    I have had carnitas in Mexico for 15 years visiting Michoacan where my husband's family lives and these are the best carnitas ever. They are perfect. If this truck was in Morelia Mexico at the plaza or Zamora Mexico in their beautiful plaza surrounded with flowers everyone would stand in line happily so they could sit on the benches in the plaza relaxing and enjoying these tacos. That is what these carnitas remind me of.

    First time here and I'm mad we hadn't tried it sooner. Food was so good and they pack the tacos and quesadillas with carne. Cash only, so come prepared. Definitely give them a try!

    The food was good and very similar to what I’ve had in Mexico. The only negative thing about this place is that it is CASH ONLY.

    Delicious meat. Tortilla and topping quality could be improved (maybe we were there late and only got the leftover). Excellent service. It's a food truck so there isn't always a place to sit or park but they do have two picnic tables. Will be going back for sure.
