Las Pencas Food Truck: Reviews & Ratings
Service, food, quality and quantity, WON'T disappoint. One of the best food trucks in my opinion.
This place never fails me.. food is always good. Service is fast, you order you pay you eat. They have outdoor chairs and tables. You park and eat if you want too coz sometimes it can be windy and cold
I'm big fan of las pencas restaurant but this food truck is also good! We usually order quesabirrias from here and they always hit the spot. The consome has a a lot flavor, good when you add like and salsa to it. Sometimes it takes a while to get your order because they are always busy but its worth the wait. They are nice to give extra salsas when you ask for more. They have tables/chairs in the parking lot they are at in case you want to sit and eat there. Plenty of street parking as well.
Truck is located right next to Molloys bar. The consome and tacos are pretty good for the closest near me. The carne asada fries are good
We didn't get to eat the food right away. So I think it would have been 5 stars if we ate it immediately after picking up. We ordered online and got 6 orders of quesabirria tacos, 2 nachos, and a quesadilla. Everything was perfect even with our customizations of no onions or no cilantro on some of the orders. Super nachos with the pollo asado were really good. It had a nice balance of all the toppings. The birria tacos were ok, they were sitting for probably an hour before we got to eat them. The birria was tasty even though it was cold. I didn't care for the consome because the tacos were already soggy. And I got instant heartburn from it lol but again it would have been better if we ate it immediately. The red and green salsas were soooo good. The red salsa was hella spicy, so be careful lol I would definitely come back for the nachos!!
