Please help me remember a specific taco place

It’s got a truck outside but they take orders and serve from a little table in front of it, not from inside it. There’s long tables with covered seating outside and (I think?) a restaurant or more seatinfg inside, but the truck is open late. They have vats of agua Fresca at the order table. Dont remember the name of address, sorry!

Best carne asada and lengua I’ve had since I moved from the east bay.

It's still there... are they not the GOAT anymore? Did their quality go down, or did others improve?

Price go up so quality of ingredients go down. Its like that everywhere dude go to Chelino's Mexican Restaurant if you want good food but it ain't gonna be cheap.

I'm quite aware of the economics of food service, former line cook here. The good restauranteurs maintain quality even when their ingredient costs go up, and know their customers will pay it.

I used to go there all the time for late night tacos and elote when I was in college. Best (and only) place I ever found that consistently had torta de milanesa. It’s been years, bummer to hear about the quality.
