Reviews

Tried a new spot, passed it by so many times and it was just time to give it ago. The pastor is definitely the way to go here.
However the fajita beef lacked flavor.
There was also consistency issues between other items like the queso taco and gordita. The menu names are hard to place an order for, especially for those that don’t speak Spanish.
When the employees mess up your order because they don’t know their own stuff, it shows. The extra price tag on tacos shows on the ingredients and delivery.
Avocado, queso fresco, cilantro, onions, etc. For those that can’t decide on what to get.
Ask for the taco sampler.
It doesn’t come with one chicken taco, so just ask for it.
This way you can try one of each of their combinations. With everything, it can be a hit or miss but was definitely enjoyed. Expect to pay on average 10-12 bucks per order here.
There are some cheaper options, but not for those that are hungry. Service is fast. Think it’s worth a try. But for what you get we will stick to our go to taco truck Alazan a street over.
Priced better and consistent. Until next time.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
At Taqueria El Barbon, we continuously work to create good experiences for our customers and we’re sorry to hear that we missed the mark here.


After a long day at work, my son and I decided to try this food truck.
I pass it up quite often.
I'm surely glad we decided to stop by.
Easy to order, took them only 10mins to prepare.
The food was great, I loved how they put it on the foam tray and wrapped it in plastic wrap, versus the regular to go box where your food turns soggy quick.
I had to pull over to properly put the sautéed onions on the street taco and the fixings on my birria tacos.
Let me tell you they were 95% better than the ones we have on the nw side hands down.
I'll be returning real soon.

Wow, we were blown away by your positive words, we really appreciate the time you took to write such a detailed review! We can’t thank you enough for the kind words about Taqueria El Barbon.Your review means a lot to us and lets us know we’re on the right track!


Not worth the money.
Tacos are smaller now, you don’t get them on a to go box and no more jalapeño on there and just a small half potato.
Waters are so nasty.
Two orders for $32 dollars? I could eat someone better.

Thank you for your review.
We’re sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience, but we really appreciate you bringing this issue to our attention.
