Wonderful service, lovely people, cute little outdoor food truck restaurant atmosphere, AMAZING food.
Today I had 3 chicken street tacos and they rocked my world and filled me up, the grilled chicken is perfect and I love the additions of radish, lime and grilled onions.
Super affordable as well.
Love El Chapin!

We came here for lunch after leaving the zoo.
It was nice that they had shaded outdoor seating for us to enjoy our food.
I got 3 street style tacos all different meats with a pineapple drink.
The food didn't take long to get.
I think the only true thing missing from all 3 of my tacos was some spice.
I guess I could've ordered jalapeños with it, but my mom had 2 sauces that came with her taco plate so I made it work.
It was good for a Saturday lunch.

An experience to remember.
This place is a hidden gem, somehow still in a food truck (they have another food truck connected with them where they serve hamburgers as well.
Haven't tried that yet.
I consider myself to be a Mexican food snob, and like California Mexican food typically the best.
The place has an absolutely great atmosphere.
I feel like I had lunch in Mexico.
The service was outstanding.
The cooks and counter workers were more than kind and friendly.
So much that I was surprised.
They are the type of people that get to know their clients and ask how they are in a brief but fun and satisfying way.
And the food...
Outstanding.
I've only had one item on the menu, but my plan it to become a regular customer and try most of their items.
Super highly recommend!
