"I rather not to give any star. I paid over 20 dollars for a burrito bowl only with three pieces of chicken meat, under cooked rice and little beans and little cheese, the whole amount of food doesn't even fill one third of the bowl. What a horrible food experience. "

"very good food! I ate the nachos first and I thought these are amazing but then I decided to have a bite of the burrito even though I was going to save it for later and that was even better! although The burrito was kind of skinny and had a ridiculous amount of foil wrapped tightly on it that was actually kind of hard to take off LoL but It had amazing flavor better than any burrito I have in Santa Cruz and also the hot sauce they gave me was very spicy and different. loved it. very impressed 👍🏼🧡 My dasher was extremely fast too."
"Do not do not do not order on the weekend. Your avocado will be brown, the meat will be hard, and there will be scarce amounts of everything except filler. Your experience with this taco truck will be great sometimes and a waste of money other times (predictably Fridays and weekends). Plan accordingly."
3 Quesa Birrias (Slow Cooked Beef)

The beef is topped with melted cheese that oozes out of the tortilla, creating an incredibly delicious blend of flavors and textures. But what really sets this dish apart is the side of rich, savory broth that comes with it for dipping. The broth adds

"Crave their ramen birria everyday so good w lil lime. Also got the asada machete one of my favorite hand made tortilla shell you can def taste all the flavors. Also got to try my sisters asada fries are so good they now have thinner like mc Donald fries and they taste so good and huge portion was sent. Will be ordering again and make sure i get a pic this time if they last long enough :D 10/10 will be ordering more "
"Overall the quality was fine but just not that great when there are so many other better Taqueria's in Santa Cruz. Most of the meat was fairly bland, the proportions of toppings to tortilla were just wrong, and it just left a lot to be desired. The Carnita's was probably the best of the ones we got, but it was overshadowed but the insane amount of cheese melted betweeen the 2 corn torillas (what is this Taco Bell?) and the plethora of cabbage. The highlight of the meal was the chips and the salsas. Both were very good and probably would have been happier with just that. I would give it a 3 out of 5 stars. Not neccisarily bad but very lack luster and dissapointing."

"The chicken tenders and fries were tasty and the order size was appropriate for the price, however, the double mocha was not as mesmerizing, I thought I would get a 20ounce mocha but received maybe a 10ounce. Not a good price for what I paid 8.00"
"Pretty sure they use AI images for their menu photos because the food looks nothing like this, not even the same ingredients. I got the Rockfish Burrito and it was huge (yay!) but it was almost entirely beans and rice. The fish was barely noticable, not big chunks like the photo but small flakey pieces and it was very dry and chewy. I ate about 1/4 of the burrito thinking they had sent me just a bean and cheese because I didn't taste any fish or pineapple. There was almost no flavor to the burrito at all and the tortilla fell apart. The Onion Rings were also huge in potion but it was all one giant greasy onion blob. Not really rings at all and a little burnt. Again, nothing like the photo, not even the same kind of batter. Really disappointing and expensive for the low quality food I received."
