"Santa Ana’s Tacos Manuel truck, open Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., serves corn tortilla street tacos with carnitas, chorizo, carne asada, al pastor, and chicken. Most regulars opt for the offals, such as cabeza and tripas (tripe), served with grilled onions, jalapenos, and cilantro. The truck also makes quesadillas, tortas, and burritos, but the huaraches topped with beans, lettuce, sour cream, and meat are the most popular." - Jenn Tanaka

I visited Adam's Tacos tonight (formerly Tacos Manuel) to pick up tacos for the family and had a great experience. Adam was very friendly and gave me some recommendations to bring home. We had the carne asada, carnitas, al pastor, cabeza, and lengua tacos. Everything had great flavor - our favorite was the carne asada. We loved the grilled onions! Not sure how they're seasoned, but they were good! Also, the prices were very reasonable. My experience with food trucks has been that they are generally overpriced. Not the case at Adam's Tacos. We fed our family of 5 under $40 which is not very common these days. If you're looking for good tacos in the area, I'd recommend you give this place a shot.

Mexican food truck on 14th St with standard Mexican fare. Came here on a Saturday for lunch and there wasn’t a line to order; it took a little over 20 min to get our food. There seems to be quite a few regulars. Credit cards are accepted but there’s a small fee. They’re still operating during covid. The generator by the order window is a bit loud, so be sure to speak up. They unfortunately didn’t have tripas or cabeza available so we couldn’t try those. You receive a number and they call you in chronological order, although a couple people who ordered after us got their food ahead of us. The burrito was a good size and had plenty of cheese and a good amount of meat. I had carnitas in mine, which was a tad dry (carnitas are only available on weekends). The chorizo was the best meat; I liked the asada and the pastor. They all came with a side of roasted pepper and sautéed onions. The green salsa was pretty spicy while the red salsa tasted very dusky. Overall, the prices are very reasonable and it’s family-owned, so it’s a good option for a quick stop when you’re in Santa Ana.

Decided to try something new and swung by Tacos Manuel. Before we get to the food, the service was amazing. Super friendly, super helpful. We ordered asada, pastor, and chorizo tacos as well the pastor huarache. Overall thr flavor was good, and the meat portions were hefty! You can get "to go" with everything all wrapped up in plastic wrap. Would recommend!

One of my favorite taco restaurants! It’s a famous food truck! All menus are yummy and reasonable price. Every time I order every menu and share it with family.

I'd like to start this off saying that I definitely recommend you stopping by if you're in the area. The staff here is very friendly, bilingual, and helpful. I've tried all their meats, and while they're all very tasty, I prefer the al pastor. Just the right amount of spice and flavor, make sure you top it with lime to really make it pop. Their tacos are a good price for what you get and their burritos are a generous portion to say the least. All in all this place is a great value. They're quick too! I'll be coming back from time to time for sure.

This spot is beyond me. The meat, tortilla, onions and cilantro work together perfectly. Every bite I took had me hyped for the next one. Do yourself a favor, if you find yourself in Santa Ana? Make a stop here, and enjoy heaven in a tortilla.

Very flavorful tacos. The seasoning was elite and the tortilla was phenomenal. The meat itself was slightly dry. The portion size is about what you’d expect for $2. The only issue I had with the service was that they did not do a good job of labeling the packages for the other guests in my party.
