What our guests are saying

My kids wanted their super burrito. It is the size of 3 burritos. Huge value for the price. We got carnitas, pollo, and Al pastor. Carnitas was probably the best. Other 2 meats were just ok. Tortilla and rest of ingredients weee good. I’d come back to get their queso Burria. Super convenient right off the freeways of your area coming northbound. Not much parking but was fine during my time. Great service. Very reasonable prices.

Such a pleasant experience! Took the short (not so scenic) walk from my hotel to take a better look at the menu after calling ahead to check for veggie options. Ended up with the best burrito I've had in years, "California style" of course! Huge, filling, and great prices. If you aren't into spicy food be sure to ask for mild or without peppers - the standard issue seems to have a nice kick to it already.

The girlfriend and I randomly picked this truck off the GPS on our road trip and ordered a super burrito and quesabirra and GOOD GAWD. Not only is the food some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had, the service was top notch. Ordered and back on the road in under 20mins and the guys in the truck are so great! Do not miss this spot.
