This taco truck hits the spot! I had their pastor burrito with everything and it was delicious. My kids had their asada quesadillas and asada tacos and they also loved it. Plenty of parking next to it. They also accept card which is very convenient!

If you’re looking for a solid taco truck, then Arandinos Tacos El Patron is a great option. I went on a Friday night and it was definitely busy. You won’t have to worry about parking, because they are located in front of a supermarket. I got (1) asada taco, (1) lengua taco, (1) al pastor burrito and (1) small horchata. I felt the horchata was perfectly sweet. I don’t consider myself to have a sweet tooth, and did enjoy it! Both tacos were solid and went well with the green sauce, which added a nice kick. The burrito was a bit mushy in the first bite, but it tasted really great as I bite. Keep in mind that this food truck accepts credit card payments, including American Express!
