Tacos Sonora

Wanted something easy to eat on-the-go during our road trip and passed through Mariposa to grab a bite. The Tacos Sonora taco truck is parked across from the Pioneer Market. There was no line when we arrived but people were waiting for their order. I was also bummed that they charged for limes and pickled jalapeños.We got:- Burrito Bowl w/ Al Pastor- Supreme Burrito w/ Carne AsadaThey were both decent, but nothing stood out and didn't seem as authentic-tasting. The salsa roja wasn't spicy at all, but added some flavor. It seemed like the food was geared toward a more western-friendly palette, which is understandable.

I recently stopped by the Tacos Sonora food truck during a day trip to Mariposa. I was hoping to find better Mexican food than I've been able to find in Yosemite Valley. Out of the two taco trucks in the Pioneer Market parking lot, I chose this one because it had guacamole on the menu, and the other truck didn't. A brightly colored sign said: Try our burrito bowl! $10. So, I did. I ordered the burrito bowl with carne asada.The burrito bowl was supposed to come with meat, beans, rice, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream, and salsa. The carne asada was okay, but not great. The guacamole kind of tasted like it had sour cream or mayonnaise in it.There didn't seem to be any salsa in the burrito bowl at all, even though the sign advertised that it came with salsa. I thought the portion size was fair enough for $10, but the flavor wasn't really there. It tasted like something I could have ordered from an American restaurant. Overall, this was nowhere near the best Mexican food I've ever had, but it was at least better than that one place in the valley.

Best taco truck in Mariposa rated #1 by the citizens that live there always consistent in appearance and quality of food, I love the chili releno burrito supreme order it the way you want no onions? Not a problem no beans? No problem making it your way! New favorite is the. Burrito bowl hands down a favorite I brought the taco salad back to Yosemite and everyone of my coworkers wanted to know where I got the taco salad homemade yum o

Basic. Chose this Mexican spot looking at Castillo's overpriced menu, which is another local Mexican restaurant in the Mariposa area. You really do get what you pay for with this taco truck. Ordered the Burrito Supreme with carnitas. "Supreme" included "cilantro, onions, guac, sour cream, tomatoes, rice, and beans". The burrito I ate only had some meat and mostly beans and rice. Literally could not find any other ingredient in it. The meat was soft, but not flavorful. And the beans and rice just made the burrito all mush. And on top of that, the green salsa was mid - lacked flavor as well.Did not buy anything else from this truck. Honestly, would not go back even if it were the only hot food option available to me. Thankfully I was just passing through Mariposa. Do yourself and just walk into Pioneer Market deli and pickup a sandwich there.

If you're in Mariposa, and in the mood for Mexican food, you have several options. There are no fewer than three restaurants vying for your dining dollar. But, for great food at a great price, your best option may not be a restaurant at all! Tacos Sonora is a great Mexican food truck parked on Coakley Circle every day but Sunday!The truck boasts a large menu complete with some great traditional favorites like al pastor, lengua and cabeza, as well as the old standards like chicken, beef and pork. The food is made right before your eyes by folks who know exactly what they're doing! The staff is all business, and while they're professional, accurate and civil, they do a huge volume and overtly friendly is not their thing. If you're hungry on a weekday, go early or late, because quite a line forms right at lunch time! They're open at about 9:30, and on weekdays they're there until 8. Until 4 on Saturdays, and closed Sunday. Delicious food, no frills and a manageable price! We highly recommend it!

You get what you pay for. Burritos are mostly filled with bean. Not bad for the price but could use more veggies in the extra priced "supreme" option.

Update: I have been back a few times since this review, and one time the owner yelled at me and bashed me for my review. I left in tears and was taken aback by her attitude and treatment. The last time I went I asked for no beans, I got beans and immediately went back. They were so rude about it, like I did something wrong. They were being very condescending. It's really hit or miss when it comes to the food and customer service.

We stopped in Mariposa after driving down 49 and needed stretch our legs and walk the dogs. Luckily we came across this taco truck behind the museum. The staff were super friendly and they kindly gave a homeless man some food and drink for free. We ordered a pastor burrito and an asada burrito supreme. Both came out quickly and for a small burrito, the pastor burrito was quite a good size. Just meat, cheese, onion, and cilantro. The pastor was seasoned super nice and almost a bit sweet, but perfectly balanced with the onion and cilantro. The asada burrito supreme definitely lived up to its name. The hot salsa left a nice lingering spice that was occasionally cooled by a bite with sour cream. The asada was delicious as well, but not quite as good as the pastor. I'm glad we stopped here and walked around to find this place.

Food is delicious and price is so reasonable compared to other places in town. I always order the burrito supreme for lunch. They also prep it in a reasonable time. Thank you tacos Sonora!

When I walked up to the window, I was the only one there and no one was waiting for a meal, but there were three people inside. It still took a few minutes for someone to acknowledge me at the window, and when they did they basically said, "what do you want" (no greeting, no smile... I almost felt like I was an inconvenience to them). I almost decided to go to the next Food Truck, but I really wanted some good taco truck Mexican food so I stuck it out. I purchased an Asada burrito bowl that wasn't very flavorful, and when asked for salsa, I was told it would be a .50 charge for one small container. I questioned the charge, and then just told them to forget it (I had already purchased my meal so they would've had to create a whole new transaction for a .50 charge). Thankfully, they went ahead and comped me one tiny little container of salsa. I've never had to pay for salsa at a Mexican food restaurant or at a food truck. Often they have serve yourself options for salsa, cilantro, etc., without extra charges. Overall, not a great experience and wish I had made a different decision.
