As a Texas native I am no stranger to good Mexican Street food. This truck was parked right outside my hotel, so I thought I would give it a try. The menu was a little clunky, but I worked through it. I ordered the carnitas street tacos. Let me tell you,...they do it lazy in Texas. These were probably some of the best carnitas tacos I've ever had. The service was sufficient. The ladies inside the truck can barely hear you. They also struggled with the English. We worked it out in the end. Prices were reasonable. I got 4 tacos for $14. They were typical small street taco size, but they came loaded. Peppers, hot pickled carrots, verde sauce, purple onions, cilantro, etc. Only thing that made me nervous was the displayed permit was 1 year out of date. But hey, sometimes you got to risk it. Glad I did.

I've been traveling to Oakland a lot lately and this truck is usually parked outside the hotel I frequent. I kind of slept on it and actually sought out taco trucks in other areas of town on some vague idea that it probably was just acceptable food for tourists. But one evening I was back at the hotel and didn't want to leave so I gave it a shot and it was the bomb. I ordered pupusa's revuelta, and they were just as good as some that I've gotten at specialized pupuserias elsewhere. Excellent ratio of fillings, hot and fresh, good curtido, good salsa. They were spot on, crazy delicious and under $5 - basically every single thing you want from a taco truck. I've gotten them a few times since and never been disappointed. In fact, they're so good that I can't bring myself to order something else so I haven't tried the rest of the menu. Service is pretty quick, everything was piping hot and fresh. Just overall a great spot. If you aren't a traveler and live nearby, another bonus is access to public shore right behind the hotel. On a nice day (well, they're still there on a bad day but not so enjoyable lol) there are a number of picnic tables and benches nearby where you can sit by the water and enjoy some peace. It's right near the freeway but once you walk around to the Embarcadero, the freeway noise fades away and it is remarkably quiet.

Best Western doesn't get five stars but this taco truck does!! We got a pupusa, a sope, some enchiladas, street tacos, a birria taco, fish taco, beans, chips and salsa. All bomb af and I say this from the palette of a complete food snob. My faves were the papusas and the street tacos with carne asada (idk what they're called on the menu as I type this but you'll know when you see em. I'm never staying at this janky ass hotel again but I'd eat here regularly if it were anywhere nearby in my life. Thanks for feeding us.

I drive by this place at least 3 times a week. And have done so for almost a year. I finally stopped. 9:15pm on a Friday night, and there was no line. Why not. Fairly quiet, just the sounds of traffic. Placed my order, took about 5 minutes to get. I ordered 2 asada and 1 carnitas. This is my standard order. Was decent. It must have been the carnitas taco. Since it was just one that tasted different. The salsa probably. It was not my favorite. Sweet with a little tang. Overall, a good dinner. Glad I stopped by.

The taco plate with carne asada and the shrimp tostada (which was served more like a civiche) were simply wonderful. We were the only non locals in line and they had to drive to get here (We walked from the hotel).

This is a big a** burrito!! Had to spend all day at a lacrosse 4 v 4 sponsored by Oakland Lacrosse Club at Laney College. Was not looking forward to trying to get lunch for my son and I between back to back games. I mean why would I have thought ahead and made us something for lunch. As game play started and I scrolled through yelp trying to find something nearby (that my son would also eat) I looked up and saw El Burrito Supreme's big a** food truck. I didn't even know they made food trucks that big. That should have been my first I got the super burrito. The lady who took my order tried to explain to me it was an actual super burrito. I'm use to super burrito meaning it comes with sour cream and salsa. But this this was literally super sized. It was big as my forearm. It was a decent burrito too. The only thing I didn't like is that they toasted the outside of the burrito. I prefer biting into a soft tortilla. My son got the nachos and was really happy...I was happy with the few he was willing to share with me.

I've been here once and my gym in Oakland has used them to cater for a Halloween event. The meat quality is good and decently priced. I got two tacos for $2/ea. They are good eats before a training session for me. I got the torta Hawaiian during my Halloween event and oh my gosh- it was so filling and tasty. I loved pineapple, the peppers, the chorizo, ham, cheese- everything!! If you like those ingredients, I definitely recommend getting it as it's so much bang for your buck! The workers are friendly and easy going. The truck is usually by Motel6 on Embarcadero, by 16th Ave. There is abundant parking in the motel parking lot as well as on the street too. Down the street is a Starbucks with pier views.
