“Food was so good!! The tacos and quesabirrias were savory, salsas were delicious too. Watch out with the Serrano peppers because they have a nice kick. If you have not tried this Mexican food truck yet, I definitely recommend it because you're missing out on some good plates. Will definitely come back here for more when I'm in the area, this small business has my support. Great service.“

“Ordered the Wet Birria Tacos with everything on it and despite the sizes of them being small (see lime for scale), they pack a punch for flavor so get extra! The service was speedy, and they were super gracious with explaining how they work. Their being Zabiha halal (view their instagram) is a great way for everyone to eat and I can't wait to see what else they do with their food.“

“Chef Budda Blasian Soul Food came to our office for lunch. They were extremely responsive & were happy to work with my organization's extra security policies. On the day of the event, staff was super friendly & the food was DELICIOUS. While they offered lunch portions, most of our employees opted to get the full dinner meal& some even came back out to get another meal for dinner. Personally, I had the combo wings, tenders, mac & cheese, & rice & gravy and everything was AMAZING! The food was cooked fresh & the chicken was crispy on the outside but SO juicy on the inside. When I was eating it at my desk, the smell alone had my coworkers peeking into my cubicle to see what I was eating. If you haven't tried them yet, I highly suggest you do! We will absolutely be asking them to come back in the future.“

From the manager to the waiters and the bartenders everyone was pleasant and so welcoming. We ate there three times in the four days we were there. One dinner, one brunch and one lunch. One day I had to do a work call and the manager was so accommodating showing me different locations I can sit. Thank you to all the amazing people at The Henry!“

“Best Taco Tuesday spot in town. The prices, the quality, and the consistency are all on another level compared to any other taco truck or taqueria in the area. Emphasis on the consistency. They. Don't. Miss. Everybody else, even if I love them with all my heart, I've had a bad experience or two that I had to overlook. A time where they were overwhelmed, or just didn't have their heart in it that day. Not here. Never. And with the number of times I've come back, that's not a coincidence. I miss when they were here on Fridays as well, but still make a point to come get tacos every Tuesday that I can take the time to drive down from my office for lunch.Parking: I mean, if the secret gets out about how good they are, you might see parking become a bit of a hassle. But for now it's not a problem at all.“

TACO PICASSO Mobile caterer • $$
4637 Market St, San Diego - 10.83 miles

“I hired Taco Love to cater my wedding in February and would happily look forward to hiring them again for any future event. Consider this a glowing review, and a recommendation to hire them for your events! Guests are still raving about how great the food was ... many of them were so taken by the appetizers that they didn't even realize a dinner course was still to come! After being super disappointed with the attitude and racist comments from a *different* caterer that had been highly recommended to us, we found Randy and Taco Love and it was a perfect fit! From the first phone call, we knew we were on the right track for our event. He was always kind, very laid-back (something that vibed really well with my personality, but something to note if you want things super formal and in writing right away), and very accommodating to the unique needs and vision of our event and venue space. He would always tell us "it is your wedding ... you let me know what you want and we will make it happen!" We used some of his serving dishes, and some of our own. At our tasting, he made sure we had one of each thing on his menu and it all tasted so great! The meat and veggie options were very delicious, and the salsas were incredibly flavorful. From there, the process was very smooth. There was no limit on the menu, he allowed us to choose from everything they make on the truck. The price was reasonable, and he even added a dessert option only two weeks out from the wedding! Our guests LOVED the churros and ice cream. He was right on time for our wedding, and from what we could tell everything ran so smoothly! We had plenty of food for our guest count of 130. My only regret, is that as the bride and groom we were so chaotic that day we didn't get to eat as much as we wanted to! We are already planning a time to catch his truck when we are back in town so we make up for that! Thank you, Randy! We look forward to eating your food again hopefully soon!“

“Excellent food truck carnitas.... They use Gabriel's tortillas, so you know they care about the quality of their food.The tacos surtidos were exactly as they should be...a nice spicy salsa to accompany the moist pork... With a hint of lime to cut through it all... Bravo! Location isn't exactly family friendly... But bonus if you like the locals only dive bar scene.“

Mariscos El Tiburon Food Truck Food Trucks • $
12580 Lakeshore Dr, Lakeside - 4.11 miles

“Best hidden gem in Lakeside (or wherever it is)!!! This little truck has the very best grilled shrimp burritos and fish tacos EVER. We have lived in East County for over 25 years and sampled every grilled shrimp burrito and fish taco in a 15 mile radius. Promise- you will not be disappointed. We just had a party of 20 people who mostly just ordered the grilled shrimp burrito (ordered the day before) and they all loved it. It's a big burrito, so we always cut it in half and eat the other half for lunch.... And it's good COLD like a sandwich the next day. Sounds weird but it's literally just as good cold. We also got about 4 shrimp ceviche to share around. That’s good too. Oh and don't forget the chipotle mayo and green sauce! It is our Friday night regular stop on the way home after a busy week.Ambiance is just a parking lot but the little Hispanic market there also has the best no-name brand tortillla chips and fresh tortillas. So we shop while we wait for our food. So that's why we also line the ambiance!“

Señor Wooffle Food Trucks • $
3030 Grape Street, San Diego - 3.21 miles

“I ordered Cowgirl fries and I'd say it's surprisingly good! I liked the flavor combination of fried crispy chicken with applewood bacon and fries. I don't usually eat jalapeño in my food cause I see them as 'decorations', but these ones actually gave a nice balance to fried chicken. Fried chickens were not dry nor burnt which I liked as well. By far the best food truck I tried among many my community managers had invited.Anyway, I didn't get to try their shakes this time but I'm down to get their food next time if I see them around UTC area. If you guys have any regular spots let me know.PS: well about the kiosk, I actually liked it better than ordering at windows. Sometimes I feel awkward to take time looking at the menu while people in the truck are waiting for me to order. No thoughts on the pricing tho.“

It does have great drinks and reasonably priced, it has line dancing and great music. Sometimes they have food trucks which is fun. If the dance floor isn't for you- they have pool table and corn hole. This bar is for everyone and fun.“

Al Pastor

“This is the first food truck on my Taco Tuesday tour. It is located in a random parking lot in Mira Mesa. On their instagram, it says they open at 5:00 p.m. but that may be inconsistent because on the day I visited, they were not yet open at 5:30 p.m. Service is very quick and friendly. Their baseline prices are already very reasonable, but their Taco Tuesday deal is even better. $1.50 per al pastor taco on Taco Tuesday $0.75 convenience fee for credit card The tacos are mini-tacos, but I think the amount of meat is very appropriate for size of taco and for sure generous for the Taco Tuesday price. Apologies for having no photo, I ate the tacos too fast!! They had a green salsa that was quite delicious. I actually didn't use it on my tacos (they were already flavorful), but instead used it on a burrito I got from a different restaurant. There is seating for those that want to sit and eat. I took my order to-go. Lots of free parking !“
