Nothing like a food truck with awesome tacos! Looking for a spot in the area for a late lunch and there it was. I took a moment to review the menu, layered with several pictures of tacos and tostadas on the windows. The woman was nice taking my order. There are tables and chairs set up for eating on the spot. The plate is a great value, at $12 for a set of 3 street tacos with rice and beans. I also threw in a shrimp taco for good measure. All were delicious and hit the spot.

The food was great! I came here for a fundraiser and the vibe was great. I wish there could be more tables, but it's alright! The service was fast considering how busy it was and I like that they repeat the # of the order just in case you didn't hear it the first time. I hope they continue doing that cause I appreciate that. It was near a parking lot too which was convenient for me to park and eat :)

I got the Cali burrito and steak quesadilla. A Cali burrito has fries instead of rice and beans. I am rounding up from 3 1/2 stars. It was just ok for me. I think Casita Taco in Noho has the best steak quesadillas and this one doesn't really compare. I read several reviews that stated the burritos were huge here but it was similar size to everywhere else. I prefer Taco Llama for some reason. I will try their traditional burrito next time. Their chips were really good and that's what stood out for me. Check them out for yourself.

Ordered a chicken and a birria taco and asada loaded fries. They have 2 self serve screens if you choose to. I'm not a fan of those but I can see how it works for food trucks. Staff was nice and food was ready as expected. The food was good and so filling. It was my first time ordering a birria taco. That taco was filled with birria and flavor. Of course the loaded fries were ! So good! Thank you El Tacote!

I just tried the Cali burrito today with asada, shrimp, bacon, and fries, and it was honestly amazing. The asada was perfectly cooked and tender--and the shrimp added a nice balance to along with the richness of the bacon. The fries inside were a great, adding a bit of crunch and making the burrito even more filling. Every bite had a little bit of everything, and it all came together really well. If you're into bold flavors and big portions, definitely give this a try. Service is was good, and they even had tables to eat at even tho they are a food truck. I'll definitely be coming back!

First time stopping by at El Tacote on a Friday night. It wasn't packed and there were only 3 people ahead of us. We were craving for their Carne Asada Fries, Chicken Taco and Birria Taco. El Tacote definitely satisfied our food cravings. Hands down the best tacos and Carne Asada Fries in the San Fernando Valley. We really like El Tacote because not only do they have delicious tacos, nachos, burritos and fries they also have quality food items and meats with good price points. I've also noticed how consistent they are with providing excellent customer service. Their food portions are also on point. El Tacote is one of the many small businesses and food trucks that we love to support in the San Fernando Valley because not only are their food items really good, they are consistent with practicing quality and customer care.

I've been here many times in one week and once you try it, you'll know why! Important tip: If you pay CASH, they will not charge you tax NOR a cc fee!!! Wish I had known this before I paid with a cc my first time lol. They have 2 foldable tables with 4 chairs each right outside their truck. We prefer taking it home, though, and enjoying our food with a cold drink! My absolute favorite (and weakness) are their nachos! If you're about the melted queso, then this place is for you! But honestly, their carne asada is made VERY well! Super tasty/flavorful! Their quesadillas are huge! My son LOVES their shrimp tacos! So so good!
