Taqueria El Grullense No 2 - Lodi

Some of the best asada fries you will have, and the people there are great and get you your food at a great speed

Legit food and experience. Best of all, if you grew up without rice and beans being put inside the burrito, this place offers a meat burrito alternative, a la SoCal.

The food is not the best the seasoning is overwhelming. And not the best. The pastor meat DOES NOT TASTE LIKE AL PASTOR AT ALL and in chunks for the tacos. The portion on the smaller side. The price is expensive on certain items like tacos de quesiBiria there very small for 4.50 each. If they were the bigger tortillas but no its the smallest taco truck size. THE GOOD REVIEWS ARE HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHY THEY HAVE THEM.

10/10 recommend! So glad we tried it. The meat is perfectly seasoned/flavored, cooked and lean. I wish more Mexican food was quality like this! No fat chunks in the asada and it looks and tastes like it's actually grilled (not stewed like other places). Even the toppings tasted and looked fresh, juicy ripe limes and fresh cilantro. Had the asada fries, carnitas burrito and barbacoa tacos. LOVED everything! The space is a little small but most people get food to-go or eat quick and don't sit around so there's tables available.

Food quality is inconsistent. My wife and I and some friends stopped for a late lunch. My wife and I got the carne asada fries and I got a couple tacos (carnitas and barbacoa). My friends got the asada fries as well and some different tacos. We both agreed that the tacos were amazing. But also that the asada fries sucked. And I can’t put my finger on how. Over seasoned fries under the meat. Bad onions maybe. I don’t know. But none of us could eat more than a few bites. We actually took it back and asked for a refund or exchange for something else, but we’re told no; that we would have known after the first bite if it was bad. We ended up throwing it away. It was a disappointing contrast to the very delicious and flavorful tacos.
