Opinions de El Grullense Stockton
If you are in Stockton and craving a burrito or taco make your way down Charter Way east of Highway 5 until you see the building painted like a big taco truck this is by far the best burrito you will get into the Town of Stockton that's without a doubt ask anybody from Stockton and they'll tell you the same thing and it's been that way for quite a while so treat yourself and see for yourself that's the only way to really tell . That's about all I have to say so stay safe and have a wonderful day
Today the truck was in front of the mall off March. FANTASTIC. forgot to take pictures cause I just eat. Had the Carnitas tacos, spicy. Super delicious and super quick!!
Best tacos de cabeza in Stockton CA on charter way. Make sure you buy from Taco truck behind the taco truck building because no taxes. You heard me right the drive thru building charges taxes but the truck behind doesn't charge you taxes so you get better deal.
I have came to this location many times and i have yet to come across a bad experience. Both the customer service and food are great. I order either the "Asada" or "pastor" tacos amd both are really good. I recommend getting the "red sauce" on your meal. This location is my new "go-to spot" when im in the mood for Tacos.
I've been coming here for years. I love Mexican food, and this taco truck really hits the spot. I don't like pork so I can only comment on the chicken and carne asada, which are both amazing. For me, one of the most important features of a good burrito is the salsa. The red salsa here has just the right amount of kick to it. Best taco truck in Stockton.
Love the way the building looks like a taco truck, I did not expect the food to be so good I loved it so much for lunch went back with the family to have it for dinner the prices were great as well. The employees were super friendly and even gave recommendations on other things to try on their menu.
My mom took me here because she was having one of her cravings again. I got the cabesa taco. Rojo. It was great. Wouldnt compare it too tijuana but its good. Id probably chuff back like 8 of them things.
BEST HORCHATA FOR SIZE, TASTE, QUALITY AND PRICE IN CALIFORNIA!! Every other place in Stockton in Mexican restaurants, taco trucks and outside of Stockton make me think back about El Grullense Taco Truck (giant truck building) about how good their Hotchata is compared to everyone else..
The best tacos ever! period
Looking for tasty affordable food, this truck is a classic to Stockton. The food in my opinion is delicious and they can make reasonable accommodations. The service is choppy but if you can catch the truck when the woman 👠 are working well then you'll get a tasty, correctly made asada burrito, with no rice, extra beans and extra lemons. The atmosphere is creepy sometimes but the vendor can't really control the elements and the vagrants.
The chorizo & egg breakfast burrito is a must try here. I’ve been to different places for burritos ,but never had to write a review for any of them. Amazing flavor! Strongly recommend.
Food was so good! This was my second time at this truck and the food was so flavorful and delicious. The staff have been very friendly each time. Purchased a chicken burrito and a vegetarian burrito with sides of lemons and radishes and jalepeños. You also get your choice on the spiciness of the food. Perfect for a quick bite to eat. The food always comes out hot and fast. Not long of a wait. If you haven't been here before please go! Location is in the parking lot of an orange Grillunese restaurant.
Went to check out this spot for their tacos and burritos al pastor and man we were not disappointed. Burritos here are literally as fat as a stack of 4 tuna cans bro. I checked.
I'm stopping at the El Grullense Taco Truck to fill up on the beast tacos in the valley. On my way to see an old prune that posted a craigslist add that said "Authentic WWII Flame Thrower..not used since 1945 complete with 2 gel packs!" So, I called the lady...and asked where she got it, her husband brought it back from Iwo Jima after the war she said, then she said the first person to hand her the cash gets it. Well, I raced down there and sure enough it was gone..who'd of thought. But, those tacos sure made the trip worth while! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆
I found this place some time in 2017-2018 when I was looking for a quick bite on my way to Jackson and it was always a place I talked about. Fast forward to now! Happened to work around the corner for the past two days. Al pastor tacos with the spicy salsa!!! I haven’t tried anything else from there, but these are bomb!
The wait was normal.. the food is good.. the salsa they put on food is spicy but so good. I order a sope of Asada. It was a generous amount and well made.. Its a. .."Def try" . the area is a little rough so go through drive thru.

Love this place! They always make the best El pastor super Tacos and are really good at getting my family of 5 orders right! Every time!!!! I usually go for dinner. I've tried lunch a few times and it's a hit or miss. Red chili used to be super bomb but noticed a slight change in charge still good though!
Ellgrullense tacos 🌮 and their burritos are so good I eat here all the time especially their red hot 🔥 salsa so good for the price for a regular burrito 🌯 I believe it's worth it $1075
Me and my family absolutely loved the food. We all ate and felt very full. Nice building as well and would love to go again! 10 out of 10 Would recommend.

A delicious permanently, non moving restaurant taco truck look alike. I love (I call MA) that works in the kitchen and at windows. She's a great woman and wonderful cook. Amazing food MA. Keep it up everyone. My boss and I eat there at least once to twice a week. TY for the delicious Mexican food. We of course will be coming back for more. Over and over agian! Now breakfast. Thank you guys for serving breakfast now. My boss and I were waiting for that. 😀
Easy in and out location. Drive thru is very convenient for late night craving. The food is awesome however the rice is not fully cooked. Will try again.
I always come here when I want something fast and good taste. Lately I've found myself thinking twice when I want to eat from there. Don't get me wrong I like the food, the taste, and quality. But I always order the salsa separate, and that exactly what they don't do. By the time I get home my food gets soggy so please just try not to put salsa when they say it's separate thank you.
The service is good friendly is good price ok this place is just a taco truck only take out
Ive been a customer for over 2 years but recently when i order the cabeza, they floow the bottom of the bag with meat juices and the food items they served wity cabeza do not even have much juice for it yo have contained this liquof in the first place its like they just got mad at me or something and did this intentionally because why is there juice outside of the containers and the meat that was served isnt really that juicy
The amount of food for the price is definitely reasonable, and their horchatas are very tasty, not too sweet or too watered down. I think I paid about 13.00 with taxes for a carne asada burrito(about 7.00 and some change), and a large horchatas (about 3.00 and some change). On a downside you need to pay with cash, and they don't have a register to print your receipt. Otherwise the two employees in the truck are very friendly, and attentive and it seems they make the food to order as there is somewhat of a wait, which can get somewhat crowded and awkward while you wait and stand around in the parking lot of what seems like an old gas station. They do have a small picnic table set covered by a carport which seems nice if you wanted to eat there on a slow day.

All right tacos but not better than the trucks!
Order was wrong. They always add what you dont ask for.. I asked for 5 items in my burrito and got 6.. not everyone likes ur beans!! No extra salsa or jalapeno bag added in order. I even ordered in spanish so they wouldn't get my order wrong.. 🙃 And they dont answer their phone!

I don't know if they are under new management or what, but, yesterday my husband and I went to go get their delicious tacos, we love their tacos de lengua, always served hot, juicy and when asked with everything on it, it is a yes, yes, yes! My husband switched this time and ordered a lengua burrito. I should have known when I asked for salsa Verde and Roja on the side, the young girl said, ask at the second window, that was a first, so I did, looked like new people, got our order and left. To our surprise, no salsa, but, jalapenos, lemon and radishes, (yes maybe I should have checked), now you know it's not the same without salsa on your tacos. My tacos were warm, dry and flavorless. My husbands burrito was worse, beans were hard, rice was hard, both not cooked through, meat was dry and flavorless. Had to throw away the burrito, I doctored up somewhat the tacos, I should not have had to do that. It was a great disappointment, we have been going there for years. Managers check on the quality of your food, you will lose customers like us, and, we will be letting others know to.
Tried it for the first time tonight on my way bacl from work. Got thr regular burrito. Was already mad at the price of $10.36 tax included. While it wasnt terrible i Was Hpset cuz of the price. It was Asada hot sause. The meat was a bit too salty and i like salt but this was a bit much. Meat was also a bit dry. I had to double check why the rice was crunchy. Tasted half undercooked and some was over and too mushy. Did they mix 2 different batches idk. But over i wont go. Too pricy. To salty. I know they work hard but if im gonna pay the price of a sit down meal the food better be top notch and ...it was subpar..sorry. clean area though. Well lit. Clear menu
This place is good when they follow instructions, I ask for extra red Hot sauce in the food and the lady either doesn’t understand and ends up putting no hot sauce at all, just dry, the hot sauce is what gives the burrito the flavor, It would be great if they got the orders as asked for…..
I’ve always gone to El Grullense on waterloo and charter /Wilson way ta or truck locations for years. I tried the new location and ordered 3 super burritos, 2 chicken tacos plain and add cheese (was given asada no cheese, but charged for it) and also 3 super chicken tacos everything with verde chile and 3 asada super tacos verde chile). Asada had no cheese or sour cream with red sauce (was charged for super cost) and chicken tacos were correct. Was told the total was $59.98, my bank Acct shows $69.98 charged. Bad experience. Wrong order and over charged. I’ve tried calling multiple times and no answer at the number listed for the business. Had high hopes and was a disappointment. Myself I’d eat whatever even a wrong order, those with kids know it’s a big deal to get home and have the incorrect food/toppings. For reference of the quality of service….it wasn’t busy, one car ahead of me and nobody behind my car.
I didn't like how my tacos had no cilantro, and how the tortillas fall apart. I have given this place a couple chances, but it seems to be inconsistent. poor tacos for how simple they are made
I am very disappointed in the quality of the food served. I ordered two regular asada burritos. One with Cilantro, no onions with red sauce on the side. The other with everything and red sauce on the side. The burritos cost $9.50 a piece. When I get home, I noticed there were no beans in them, they only had Asada meat and rice with mega amounts of onion and no Cilantro. They were dry and did not taste good. I wasn't given the red sauce for either burrito either. I called and called to let them know, but no one ever answered. For the $21.71 that I spent on two burritos, I should've gone down the street and bought hamburgers and fries with drinks for the same amount! Needless to say that I will not ever patronize El Grullense on Charter Way/Hunter Street again. It's the new building that looks like a Taco Wagon.
Do not eat here!!!!!! I'm got food poising. Get from the taco truck and not the building. The quality is different and not even 20 minutes later after eating a asada burrito my stomach hurt so bad. First time ver getting food poising
this place NEVER GETS ORDERS CORRECT pita hella onions on tacos that you can’t enjoy it! rice filled burritos i tried it out thinking ok one mistake twice ok lol mistake but every single time!! then the cashier says no that’s what you said! very disappointed NEVER WILL I GO BACK! i give 0 stars not even worthy of 1. meat dry and unflavored.
I've been here twice in September, I was treated once an decided to give it a second chance. This time I had a el Pastor burrito the meat wasn't fresh it was a dryyyy burrito. Couldn't taste the salsa or the Love just not what I'm use to here in Stockton.
I was a good customer here but today I went to order and ask for a glass of water they tried to charge me 2.00 I ask them why am I getting charged for a glass of small water he said that’s what we charge and was rude if it was a sealed bottle of water ok but a small cup of water that price !me and my team will not visit this location Again
The cashier didn't take our order right. Wasn't really listening. Missed one of our burritos. The rice was crunchy. The meat lacked flavor. Just over all a bad experience. And super expensive.
Went there for three burritos…the meat was burnt, rice was crunchy and burnt. No flavor and tasted dried out even though I asked for mild sauce…it still tasted dry!! For $35…you would think it would be at least decent. Will no longer waste money there…had to throw it all away..that was a real waste of money!!!
Everything was and has been fine EXCEPT the fact that they tipped themselves a couple of dollars extra (I did not elect to). What was originally pending as $27.25 on my card, ended up clearing as $29.25! I’m going to start saving all of my receipts from here on out. Be cautious. I know it’s just two dollars, but it’s the principle… how many others have they done this to?…
The flavor of the food was awesome but the texture of the carne asada was awful. Guaranteed choking risk in every bite. The meat was way too chewy and that was just a taco. If only the texture is as good as the flavor then maybe I would reconsider and return another time but as it stands I wouldn't want to risk asphyxiation.
Man o man, if there was taco truck hell this is it right here! I ordered alpastor quesadilla, meat was dry and with no taste everything was centered had more tortilla than anything, cheese was horrible no onions no cilantro on none of my order.. burrito was hard to digest, tacos had lots of meat but i rather have quality over quantity any day. First and last time. Oh, and the horchata doesn’t even taste like horchata just a bunch of sugar and cinnamon in milky water. Prices were decent they dont charge for extra sides. Overrated!
The worst feeling , after a long late shift at work I go get a burrito only to find a hair in it & when I call them to inform them they do not answer, how upsetting !
I went two days ago and the salsa tasted like it was old and I bought and horchata and there was a flying bug in my drink I tried calling plenty of times no answer I will be having a good expector going there soon
Disappointing. Had to create another email to write another bad review. Its becoming comsistand. Americans no longer have integrity?

Honestly, this use to be my favorite spot for tacos but over the years it’s gotten to be my least favorite. They suck at taking orders, & when you ask for a side of chiles at the window they seem to get upset and say order them while you are ordering food but when you do they still don’t add them so what’s the point if regardless you are not receiving the order as you paid for. If I could rate it a 0 I would. Asada sucks it’s dry as hell , lengua is a 50/50.
Messed up order completely cheese was huge chunks and cold.. huge pieces of onion when we asked for none. On tacos and burrito we ordered. Refused refund.
Rice wasn’t cooked all the way at all, i asked for no onion on ONE burrito, they put no sour cream or onions on two. Wasn’t even busy there to mess up an order. Never going back, waste of money
Used to be our favorite spot for food, we found a literal ROCK in our food. I have a 1 year old who could’ve ingested that! My boyfriend got a chipped tooth trying to chew through it thinking the carnitas were extra crispy, but in fact spat it out and it was a pebble rock! I tried calling but no one answered, greatly disappointed.
