Surprisingly good tacos and quesadilla. Especially when we took the taco meat and put in rolled into the quesadilla. Great food on the long drive down 5.

Was driving down to SoCal and looking for a place to eat. Found this taco spot in between all the fast food restaurants and gas stations and wanted to try it out - was pleasantly surprised by how good they were! They're made fresh to order and came out neatly wrapped in aluminum foil so you can easily bring it to your car and eat later. It's a little tricky to find since they're kind of nestled away in a corner behind all the other trucks and restaurants, but despite being in a somewhat dark/sketchy location they still have outdoor seating and tables if you want to eat them right away. We saw some families and other drivers also waiting in line for tacos there. It did take us some time to receive our food since there was just one lady cooking all the tortillas and another person at the cashier, but if you're craving tacos during a long drive would recommend this spot!

Service with a smile! We ordered carne asada and pastor tacos, which were delicious and well-cooked. He even makes the tortillas fresh, right there on the spot! He did choose an interesting location, but honestly, it's away from the bustle of the gas stations, so we thought it was great. He also has a little dining area with stone tables and coverage from the sun. Highly recommend, especially if you're looking for a quick bite on a road trip!

This is my favorite food stop along I-5. The carnitas are amazing and they have a variety of meats to choose from including lengua. I usually get the carnitas tacos.

We went to El Dollar Taco Truck for lunch while driving down I-5. It was a nice surprise beyond all the fast food that was available. We got the tacos and they were pretty tasty. Fresh tortilla were great. The quality was good.

Good tacos. We tried the carne asada, carne al pastor, and carnitas. All are delicious. For being 11 a.m. on a Friday morning, the meat was fresh and well seasoned. She cranks out the tortillas to order. It's a full size taco, no doubled up tortilla. They also have pupusas on the menu, so maybe Salvadoran owned? 4 tacos and a coke for $10. But, you have to evaluate your desire for tacos v. tolerance for shady surroundings ratio. The truck is parked on a back street, with plywood propped up as a windbreak and gross puddles. Next to the truck wash. And since it's outdoor dining, there's that familiar smell that Lost Hills has. For a good taco tho, I think it's all worth it.

So I rolled in to Lost Hills late in the afternoon on my way down to Buttonwillow, where I planned to flog my car around their racetrack the following day. My buddies and I were crashing at the Day's Inn across the street and planning to leave early in the AM to head the final 10 miles to the track.I was looking for something for dinner. My obvious choices appeared to be, Denny's, Taco Bell, Arby's, Wendy's, Quiznos, McDonald's, Carl's Jr, Jack in the Box, and Subway. Pretty much all of fast food represented. Ugh. If there had been an In 'n' Out, I never would have dug deeper and discovered this little gem, but there it was, nestled amongst the gas stations and tractor trailers; a taco truck. In my book, street food trumps fast food any day. My choice was made. I ordered the enchilada platter. Three enchiladas (2 beef, 1 chix) with rice and beans. It took a while, because it's all made to order. They even make the tortillas. These friendly ladies know how to cook pupusas, tacos and burritos with a wide selection of meats. Their condiment bar includes a hot salsa, salsa verde, nopales, radishes etc. Got my food to go because the area was kind of a dust storm at the time. (no hills to provide a wind break, I guess they lost them)The enchiladas were soooo good, and were sprinkled with the cotija style cheese, and cilantro. I asked the ladies what time in the morning they opened up. 6 o'clock Am. Awesome, I know where I'm getting my breakfast. The next morning got my chorizo con huevos burrito at 6:15 and hit the road. It was delicious and filling. In fact, it carried me all the way through a thrilling and demanding track-day WITHOUT lunch until we stopped at Harris Ranch on the way home, and that's a review for another time.The 5 star review is a reflection of its rating in its class. Not to be confused with a 5 star rating for a fine dining establishment

This truck only gets 4 stars because I simply can't give a food truck 5.We watched our tortillas be made fresh (with a smile) and sat down to wait.We ordered chicken and al pastor street tacos (cilantro, onion, lime)Both meats were perfectly moist, tasty and perfect! Some places boil then shred their chicken which can dry it out. This chicken was tender and juicy with the full chicken flavor in the juice (vs watered down.)Side of rice and beans was excellent!
