Incredible Chorizo and Al Pastor Tacos
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I tried the chorizo and al pastor tacos, and they were incredible. We also ordered a burrito "with everything. " The food was well seasoned with a great depth of spices. The cooking felt elevated, offering a cleaner and lighter experience compared to some roadside places. The portions were moderate to great, and the price was reasonable.

Expensive Tacos, Small Portions
My experience at the restaurant was not great. I found the tacos to be kind of expensive for the serving size, which was small. Additionally, the meat was bland.

Great Tamales and Friendly Service!
This food truck is tucked away in a gas station parking lot with great signage. The woman who took my order was sooo kind—it honestly made my day better. I stopped by for lunch and had a tasty tamale with a side of rice and beans. I added some salt to the beans due to preference, but overall a great stop for a quick lunch, and I’ll be back! If you’re not hungry enough for a full meal, a la carte prices are very reasonable!

Delicious food and friendly service!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed the delicious food and the great service. The staff, particularly the girls, were very friendly and even helped me with my Spanish. It was a truly great experience, and I'm eager to return and try their breakfast menu soon.

Delicious Tacos and Great Service!
My experience at this restaurant was great! I ordered some tacos and they were really good. While I was waiting for my order, the lady gave me a free Agua de melon, which was a really nice gesture and it tasted good too. I will definitely be back to try some other food.

Good food, sketchy area
My experience at this restaurant was marked by really good food and great service. However, the surrounding area is a bit sketchy, and I wouldn't recommend visiting late at night.

Mixed Feelings: Great Service, Bland Food
My experience at this restaurant was a mix of highs and lows. I absolutely loved the customer service and the outdoor atmosphere, both of which were fantastic. However, the food itself wasn't very flavorful. I found the quesadilla to be overpriced, and the food was also a little greasy. Despite these issues with the food, it was an overall decent experience.

Great Quick Bite with Good Service
I was running short on time and stumbled upon this place while at the gas station. It's a good spot to grab a quick bite to eat while getting gas or before jumping on I5. The food was good and came out fast, with plenty of serving portion. The service was good, and they have a couple of picnic tables in the shade so you can eat in peace.

Ample Tamales, Just Okay Sides
My experience at this restaurant involved enjoying ample tamales that were generously filled and flavorful, especially the verde chicken. However, the beans and rice were just okay. For a platter from a truck in a gas station parking lot, $16. 50 felt a bit steep, even considering Seattle prices. On the positive side, the service was friendly, and there were some nice shady picnic tables available.
