Ordered the chilaquiles with al pastor. It looked good and it consisted of a respectable portion of multicolored chips, red and green salsa, sour cream, lots of meat, and a fried egg. Unfortunately, the al pastor was too salty. The spice level was also way too hot. I can handle a fair amount of spice but this had me sweating and in pain until the next morning if you know what I mean. I finished most of it due to hunger but immediately regretted it. Wanted to try their signature shrimp tacos but they were sold out. Probably won't ever get to now because of fear of an ulcer.

!! PROS: Get the pastor. For anything: Taco. Burrito. Loaded fries. Doesn't matter. Nothing matters. Only pastor matters. The shrimp taco is pretty good too. And the servers were kind enough to let us sub one of the plated tacos for a shrimp taco for +$1, but the pastor is fine enough by me. Wolf Fries are fun; however, I strongly recommend thoroughly mixing the meat and Cheetos into the fries as the fries do not taste separately seasoned/salted. They really need a good mixing to soak up the fat & get them really tasty -- otherwise you're going to end up with bland fries at the bottom if you let all the toppings get eaten first. ¡¡ CON: Be prepared to wait ~15+ minutes! Everything is made fresh to order, and 15 minutes is FOREVER in food truck time. (・・)

My gym has been inviting food trucks by in the evening, and I can't say that having a pre-workout burrito is the best idea in the world, it is the tastiest.I had the chicken buritto and it was darn good. Plus, you gotta love the name. The food was filling and flavorful. The red sauce was also darn hot. Nor scorth-the-Earth and make-your-head-explode hot, but good and hot. The burrito was $9, which was a decent value. I'd eat from these guys again.

Stumbled upon El Governador at a Ska show in Garden Grove last night, and OMG! We ordered chicken tacos and the loaded quesadilla. Everything was so YUMMY! The ingredients are super fresh, and their customer service is great too. My only complaint, and it's a tiny one, I wish chips came with everything on the menu instead of just the burrito...lol! Other than that, I hope I stumble upon El Governador again in the near future so I can try more stuff on the menu.

I am always craving tamales during the winter time and luckily, the El Governador truck stopped by my office during lunch and they had tamales!I ordered one of the chicken and one of the cheese. The chicken was good but the cheese was exceptional! There were big slices of jalapenos inside the cheese tamales and they really elevated the flavor. I also love their green habanero sauce so much I wish I could take a bottle home. Overall I enjoyed the food and I will definitely try the shrimp tacos next time.

Recently attended an event that was catered by El Governador and found it to be absolutely delightful. The quality of food and service made it a truly tasteful mode to go and came back for a delicious meal regarding your needs and desire.Walking in and finding a table, one of the waitresses came over and asked what I needed to drink. I was given it immediately. Then heading over to the catering table, I became awestruck by what they offered and the amount you could have on your plate. Their tacos were truly what I wanted and how I wanted them. The side orders of rice, beans, chips, and salsa really makes you happy to enhance your appetite. Afterwards, we were all given a delicious slice of cake for desert.Bottomline: El Governador could be Mexican restaurant that will govern your quality, quantity, and taste in every aspect you want for a delicious meal and tasty treat!! Head over and you will truly return!!

This truck is amazing! One of the best tacos I had. The meat was extremely tender and full of flavor. The green sauce is amazing! We also got the quesadilla and it was fantastic! I recommend this spot heavily! Super clean and delicious. The staff is extremely friendly as well.

I ordered the Shrimp Taco with green sauce. It was THE BEST shrimp taco I've ever had. And I'd highly recommend trying it. It paired really well with the green sauce. On another note, my friend ordered the chicken taco and said it was a little dry. Other people raved about the quesadillas. The service seemed a little slow but, an overall delicious experience. Since I loved what I ordered, I'm giving this 5 Stars!

Was out of shrimp from the start. The pastor and chicken were salty. Asada was surprisingly bland. Had to get the cook's attention before the order taker emerged. I felt bad for customer before me, who was kept waiting longer. This place gets a second star only because they customized my quesadilla by mixing the available meats into it. I read a decent number of reviews about their shrimp tacos, but with the questionable customer service, I don't want to return for another attempt.
