Mi Grullense Taco Truck: Reviews & Ratings

After playing a round of golf, I wanted to visit a food truck for some post-round fuel. Looked up a spot and ended up here. This truck is parked in the goodwill parking lot. They have two trucks, but this one had more people at it, so decided to order from this one. I went with 4 tacos (2 pastor, 2 carnitas) and a super burrito and a can of coke. $36 but my card was charged $39, guessing tax, so lesson learned bring cash. The tacos were pretty good. All the meats were on the sweeter side, but much preferred the carnitas over the pastor. I usually order a super burrito , and what I didn't realize was that a super burrito here means a larger burrito. At first I was like , why is it $20 - then when I got it, it was so massive that it could feed a small family or for me it was multiple meals. The burrito itself was tasty, I thought the carne was good, again a little sweet tasting, but the rice beans and sour cream made the burrito simple yet good. I ate half for one meal, then saved the other for later. Overall, it's one of those spots that I'm glad I tried it, and if I was in the area, I'd try it again.

I found out about this taco truck years ago from friends. It's easily one of the best around. I always go for 6-8 carne asada tacos, and they never disappoint. The meat is always flavorful, and the sauce they use takes it to the next level. I've also tried the al pastor and chorizo, and they're just as good. My wife is a big fan of their torta. You really can't go wrong ordering anything from this truck and the staff is friendly.

Back home in the bay to visit family, and on my way to the airport, made a lunch pit stop at the best taco spot, Mi Grullense truck on international. I got my usual cabeza and carnitas tacos, and tried something new pescado. Glad I tried it, it was delicious!! I'll be back in the bay in December, looking forward to another trip to Mi Grullense!!!

I finally found my new favorite taco truck. Carnitas is fried crispy and carne asada has a lot of flavor. The green salsa is spicy and really good! The Spanish rice is also really good! Everyone is always friendly when I order. The hardest part is having cash on me. Otherwise I would be here all the time. Maybe one day they will take card transactions.

These trucks are cash only. Apparently the two trucks have different menus but I never really pay close attention. I don't often frequent these trucks since they are cash only, which I never have. Today I happened to have cash, and decided to switch it up. I ordered 2 asada, 1 carnitas and a quesabirria. The trucks are in the parking lot behind the goodwill, so as you're waiting, you're just standing around. International Blvd, is just that. International Blvd. you never know what you're going to get, based on the day. Today, it was fairly quiet. My food arrived within about five minutes. Asada was decent, carnitas was a little fatty for my taste, and the quesabirria had entirely too much cheese this time. My stomach feels like a brick now. The salsa that was already on the tacos had good flavor, and wasn't spicy.
