A Long Wharf stalwart with a sprawling Mexican menu—birria, tlacoyos, cemitas, coctel de camarón. Regulars swear by the weekend menudo and spicy diablitos. Highlighted in CT Insider’s guide to Food Truck Paradise, a spot Eater also celebrates for its breadth.

I think this is the food truck we just ordered from? See photo. I didn't see the name of the truck, im trying to match pictures. We got the tres amigos plate, and the milanesa chicken was absolutely amazing. Steak was sooo tender and juicy. Everything was delicious.

Tasty fresh and grilled! Got the Burrito, Rice and Taco special 5 for $10. Very flavorful and just so so right.

I was excited to come here because the birria looked spectacular in photos. However, the birria was not strong in flavor as I expected. It almost didn’t have flavor. I do recommend the esquite, churros and tacos al pastor. I wish I didn’t order birria and order more tacos al pastor with pineapple.

Easily some of the best Mexican food in New Haven. Very affordable pricing, large portions, and quality, well-seasoned food. MUST try the chorizo, so flavorful and has a good spice balance! Also the nachos are amazing!

One of the best spots to eat here better quality meat then there Counterparts avoid the big red flashy trucks they put me in the hospital but this truck here has amazing flavor and after chatting with the owner and the workers these are honest hardworking individuals but I also love the slushy passion fruit drink if you like Dunkin’ Donuts refreshers this passionfruit slushy puts that to shame also the other slushy flavors are on one of the photos I uploaded

Omg this was an awesome experience! I had a Cuban sandwich that was bigger than my head! The flavors were absolutely out of this world, a spicy Mexican seasoning that permeated throughout the sandwich. I also had some churros with chocolate drizzle that I greedily ate in minutes. So many choices on this truck, I can't wait to go back and try them all! Highly recommend!
