This was my second time eating here. I loved the carne asada tacos when I went the first time. This time I ordered the chicken taco salad. The chicken was a bit salty but I still finished the whole thing except for some leftover tacos shell. It came hot and the cheese on top of the lettuce melted nicely. The beans and rice were delicious. I asked for the spicy salsa and it did not disappoint. Be sure to try a little bit of the salsa first since everyone has different spice tolerances. It did not come with lemon or limes.

There's not a lot of food options within walking distance of my workplace so I usually end up at La Barca food truck (at the curl-de-sac near 395 Oyster Point Blvd). The prices are pretty good for the portion size and it's fairly quick service too even during the lunch period. On a nice day, it's relaxing to soak in the sunshine while waiting for the food. Typically, I'll get a super burrito as I love getting sour cream, guacamole, and all the creamy goodness. But, on Tuesdays they have the shrimp fajita quesadillas which has a good amount of cheese, peppers, mushrooms, avocado slices, and shrimp.

Very good food and service. I wish they had a spicier salsa option, but the tacos are flavorful and reasonably priced. Can be messy and a bit on the greasy side

My first time here after a craving. Easy to find, near my work and got the carne asada tacos. Oh man they were a delicious treat. Very generous on the meat and the flavor was right on point. Wait took a little bit of time but it was worth it. Will definitely come back for more, probably next week.

This taco truck posts right outside my office at the oyster point plaza in South San Francisco, so I've been here countless times. At least 2 or 3 times a week. Delicious food for very cheap. Staff is always very friendly and food comes out very quickly. My go to order is steak special burrito spicy. They have good breakfast options as well. If you are ever in the area, you should give it a shot. -B

Their al pastor taco is the best I've had in the bay area! The pork is so flavorful and juicy. GAHDAMN. The lowdown: AL PASTOR, FOR SURE. Cash only. It's $2 for a taco, comes with some pickled veggies and lime, and you know a girl gotta have lime on her tacos. If you can't do spicy, you can go for the chicken, which is also pretty good. But I would skip the carne asada, I've given it a few chances, and it's not that good, pretty dry and tough. Also tried their burritos and quesadilla, which are not that good, so tacos over everything. I can seriously eat this almost every day, i think i basically did for a week, and it's still hella good. Would recommend.

Pretty solid taco truck that's walking distance from my work. Arrived around 11:30am and waited about 15 minutes for my food. There were maybe 5-6 people ahead of me. Got the spicy al pastor tacos, and they had a good kick to them!! My tongue was burning a little, but it was the good kind :) The carne asada and pollo tacos were pretty good too, not dry like how some other places make them. Oh, and it's cash only.
