“I tried the lamb with cheese and sour cream, the Tropical grilled vegetables with cheese and sour cream I also tried the vegetable with cheese and sour cream. The grilled lamb was very good with a nice flavor, succulent and tender meat, I added the red sauce that was sweet and tangy, the Tropical vegetable was okay but was a little bland and was about the same as the regular vegetable. The vegetable s were nicely grilled still firm.“

“Best taco truck hands down! Ordered tripe, cow tongue, and beef tacos! Amazing flavor! The atmosphere is not so great as the truck is next to a dive bar. I get it, people get drunk and the food craving kicks in. Will be eating here indefinitely unless food quality changes. Highly recommended this taco truck! Street parking!“

“Great drinks, cider, and decent selection of tequila! Hearty fried chips will stand up to their very fresh guacamole and spicy salsa. Our pork taco was cute on its on wooden serving board, the salad with chicken is always generous, but on our most recent visit, the meats were dry and bland. Better next time, I'm sure. Service is friendly and easy going, atmosphere is super casual. Good spot for a quick bite or time out with friends and family.“

“My dearest companions of refined palates and exquisite tastes,I must regale you with a most peculiar dining experience I recently encountered. Imagine, if you will, my esteemed self, accustomed to the luxurious surroundings of Michelin-starred establishments, inadvertently stumbling upon a culinary gem concealed beneath the guise of a modest Taco Bell. Yes, you read that correctly – Taco Bell, a name more commonly associated with fast food than haute cuisine.It was a chilly evening, and the glistening city lights beckoned me toward a culinary adventure I had yet to embark upon. In my eagerness, I mistook the humble facade of Taco Bell for a secluded Michelin-starred restaurant, and my expectations soared to the highest of heights. Alighting from my chauffeur-driven carriage, I was momentarily perturbed by the compactness of the parking area, but such trifles mattered not to me. My trusty driver, ever resourceful, steered us through the enigmatic maze of the drive-thru, where I discerned a curious interplay of savory aromas and an eclectic symphony of voices ordering a vast array of dishes.Upon entering the establishment, I was greeted by a cheerful attendant who presented me with a menu of staggering proportions. It was a paradoxical marvel; for in this unassuming Taco Bell, they had somehow managed to take mere meat, cheese, and a humble tortilla, and through their ingenious alchemy, fashioned a kaleidoscope of culinary delights.The menu sprawled before me like an epic novel, promising a gastronomic journey beyond my wildest dreams. I was at once perplexed and intrigued by the plethora of choices that lay before me, from the classic Crunchwrap Supreme to the audacious Doritos Locos Tacos. My refined sensibilities were put to the test as I pondered this symphony of ingredients, each more daring and indulgent than the last.To the uninitiated, the Taco Bell drive-thru may seem pedestrian, but for those in the know, it is a portal to fast-food luxury. The convenience of ordering from the comfort of one's carriage, surrounded by the tantalizing aroma of Mexican-inspired creations, is an experience to be savored. My order, meticulously customized to suit my discerning palate, was soon delivered to me with the utmost care, a testament to the dedication of the Taco Bell staff.As I partook in this unexpected culinary escapade, I was pleasantly surprised by the depth of flavor and the artful presentation of each dish. The marriage of textures and tastes was, dare I say, sublime. The quesadillas, with their tender grilled chicken and melted cheese, were a harmonious ballet of ingredients, while the Beefy 5-Layer Burrito proved a testament to the grandeur that can be achieved with the simplest of elements.In conclusion, my dear connoisseurs of the epicurean arts, I must admit that my inadvertent foray into Taco Bell was a revelation. The ability to elevate the humble tortilla, meat, and cheese to such elevated heights is a feat deserving of recognition. While the parking may be tight and the setting far from opulent, the taste sensations crafted within those unassuming walls are nothing short of a gastronomic masterpiece. It is with the utmost sincerity that I recommend a visit to this unsuspecting haven of culinary innovation, for it is a journey that shall forever be etched in my memory.Yours in epicurean discovery,“

Quick food and friendly people, I like to practice my Spanish here and they're always encouraging and giving me new words.

The Taco Panzon Tacos • $
2198 Campbell St #2000, Oakland

“You can find the taco panzon most days at the intersection of Campbell and grand from 12:15 pm. This food truck is amazing. Really. The entire ambiance, the crew that frequents it; it is a community you want to be a part of. They have two chairs you can sit on and gulf down some tacos and be on your way. Not somewhere to sit and dine but for a quick pick me up it is highly recommended. Food quality is too notch, pickled jalapeños and zuccini and generous avocado portions with the taco orders when you ask for everything on em. Can't hype it enough! But don't expect to wine and dine, it's a food truck.“

“My first time here and the it was a great experience. I initially came for the Tripe tacos, but they weren't available yet unfortunately, so I went for three carnitas tacos and a jarritos. It came out to $16 total.I like the fact they have about 6 or 8 guys cooking, so food comes out in less than a few minutes. The tacos were also stuffed to the gills with meat! Also a great salsa bar.They have about 15-20 parking spots in the small lot, with both indoor/outdoor dining. I couldn't really taste the meat, but it was filling and plenty of cilantro/onions. I'll def be back for tripa/cabeza next time!“
