Their CA burrito is enormous and really good. Jalapeños are on point. Salsa was a little weak. But $7.50 for a burrito the size of my wife’s face is 5 stars from me. We shared it and it was enough for us for lunch.

One of the best taco trucks in town. Wide variety of classic Mexican dishes. Everything taste great. If you want a lot of food for a very reasonable price, you're looking at the right place. I recommend the California burrito. ( Pictures is the California burrito bowl)

Best taco truck around no contest love the asada and the pastor. Torta or burrito bowl is my usual. Meat has great flavor and texture 9/10 times.

They have the best tacos and breakfast burrito. My favorite is the al pastor tacos. The workers are always friendly. Probably the best taco truck in town and Chico has a lot of good ones. Their sopes are excellent too.

Another "Taco Tuesday", another review, and for awhile I was beginning to question the validity of Taco trucks in Chico. So, I was pleasantly surprised, and relieved, when I ordered from Tacos Super Tonaya. I perused the menu, and ordered...tacos! 4 chicken and 4 carne asada, with everything. At $1.25, these are some of the cheaper ones in town, but that's the everyday price...it can only be beat by 1 other place (but I still have many more to go). When I looked at them, I was skeptical, because if you smother your product in sauce it usually means dry, unseasoned meat. NOT here, though. The meats were incredibly juicy, cut into the right size for the shells, and seasoned perfectly, and the sauce only enhanced the flavor. Add in the fact that they were topped with the right amount of onion/cilantro, AND a jalapeño (I don't like radishes) made for a perfect Taco. This is an establishment that I will return to for other menu items. It wasn't too busy when I arrived (11:50 am), but soon after it had a line 6 people deep, and more arriving as I left. THAT speaks for the truck as well. Get there early, enjoy your food, and show love to this Truck... they've earned it with the quality of their food.
