Ah Carbon Tacos

To begin with, Santa Ana has so many taco spots and I for one am so happy to have so many taco spots to choose from. This taco truck is definitely up there for me! The Al pastor was so die for. Absolutely delicious. I didn't even get a chance to take a picture of my tacos before they were devoured. I ordered Al pastor, asada, and cecina. I don't see a lot of places offer cecina so it was a pleasant surprise to see it on the menu. All of it was so good! I would have to say that if you do get some tacos from here that you HAVE to order an agua de melon. That made the experience so much better! 10/10!!! The only downside from this location is the parking situation. But that shouldn't deter you from trying this spot!

As a long-time fan, this place has become just mediocre since gaining popularity. It seems like the quality of their meats including their chicken has gone down. I understand the cost of goods has gone up, but so have their prices. I hope they keep up with the QUALITY as they had in the past.

The street taco scene in Orange County has been one of the greatest things because there isn't a ton of good eats around here after 10pm. I read about Ah Carbon Tacos in an article of the "The Seven Best Tacos to Try In Santa Ana" by LA Taco and you know I had to give it a try. They are mostly open throughout the week, but check their IG for the latest updates, especially with all the rain lately, they have had to close unexpectedly. On my first visit, that's exactly what happened, but I didn't get discouraged and just went back the following week. They are known for their asada tacos which comes with a huge chunk of meat, onions, cilantro, salsa and a scoop of guac. Absolutely delicious and super addicting! Ah Carbon doesn't have the typical spread such as lengua, cabeza, etc. but they have a great assortment. I have tried their asada, tripa, cecina and al pastor, but the best hands down is the asada. Price wise they are on the more expensive end, but it's really worth it! These are more substantial than the normal tacos that are now $2/ea. There are so many items that I need to still try like the other meats and creations such as the vampiros, mulitas, quesadillas, etc. Will definitely be back!

Honestly I came here for the Pastor Tacos but unfortunately they have like a sweet taste, not very delicious. Only downgrade is they put alot of hot sauce on the tacos which in my opinion they should actually put it on the side. I don't recommend those tacos.

Stop be here to pick up some tacos for dinner. I ended up ordering 1 pastor Quesa Taco $3.5, 1 Asada Vampiro $4.5, 1 Pastor Quesadilla $12, total twenty dollars even. They were pretty good with generous portion of meat in there. When I paid I was a little bit shocked that a Quesadilla would cost $12. It was delicious and good portion. I felt it was expensive was my problem.

Summary: Go go if you're into tacos!!!Always hunting for the elusive taco me and a close friend decided to try this place because of the long line. Located just off the 5 fwy and grand. In the same shopping complex as a smoke shop this place was amazing. Let's start of that the carna asada was grilled over real coal. This round I tried al pastor and carna asada tacos. Both had Amazing taste with each bite. Also with that grilled charcoal flavor just brought it over the top. Pair it with horchata just to be in bliss. Did I mention that you can see two ladies in the back making fresh tortilla by hand and with Mexican music playing in background just made it a great place to hand out. Bring your cash and hopefully you can find this elusive place. Just be aware there are two taco joints in the same shopping plaza. Look for the one further away from the freeway.

Asada burrito with guacamole was delicious!!!!! Definitely a must try. And the agua frescas are good too

Enjoyed my tacos and quesaritto! Service was good, employees were nice and helpful. The grilled chicken is the best meat option in my opinion especially when it's fresh off the grill, after that in 2nd place would be the pastor and asada in 3rd. Ambiance is your typical food truck setup, I appreciate the music they play so it's a little vibe while you're waiting for or eating your food. Wish they had a little salsa bar with onions, cilantro and limes like the majority of taco stands and trucks but that's just me knit picking. Definitely worth trying, I've been twice already and will probably be there some time this week lol STOP BY AND HAVE A CHICKEN TACO, you won't regret it!

Tacos are so delicious! Literally tastes like tacos from Tijuana. I had carbs asada tacos and a burrito!! S

Handmade tortillas, excellent quality meat and real guacamole (not that blended watered down guacamole sauce), which makes for an excellent taco. They have some stools to sit down off the side and so it makes for a quick place to get in and out. Excellent taco truck. Maybe one day they will have a location with indoor seating.
