I don't know how this place isn't more popular than Leo's - it's by far my favorite taco truck! Every time I come to LA I make sure to make a stop here. The meats are so juicy and flavorful and they come with SO much delicious salsa on top. My only qualm is that I can never tell what I'm eating when looking at them from the top! The tacos are definitely better than the burritos here - I usually get the Carne Asada, Al Pastor, Cabeza, Lengua, and Buche! The horchata & the pina are also great as well!

Wow. Tacos are amazing. Well filled (almost to much) and the hot sauce is amazing! The tacos comes with cucumber, radish and lime. Service is great and really fast. So good so I'm going back to try out every single thing on the menuz

I traveled to Cali from NYC to help a friend move back during the pandemic and took the chance to try the best places for tacos in LA. It took 3 tries to catch these guys at there designated area but was well worth all the money spent on cabs. First off New York needs some major help, because the food scene in LA blows my mind. Its amazingly diverse. El Chatos tacos were exceptional... truly. Served as an amazing bonding experience for me and my buddy prior to our cross country road trip. Mind you hes not a foodie and not the most adventurist eater, but found himself loving the head meat taco. Check them out because they are serving up special eats.

Extremely busy taco truck, as it is only opened from Thursday to Sunday nights. The tacos are $1 and have a wide variety of taco fillings. The fillings are more unique than what I have seen before, such as tripe, and beef cheek. We tried most of them and the tripe really stood out. The tacos are also doubled shelled corn tortilla and they were not dry or brittle at all. Their burrito is made with flour tortilla which gave it a nice chewy texture on top of the flavourful meats.

This place is delicious, one of the better talk taco trucks in the Los Angeles area, my personal favorite thing to order from this place is the mulitas ( quesadilla with meat of choice as well as all the condiments). As you can see from the menu in posted picture there is a great selection. I will say this the tacos are made with the smaller tortillas, two big bites and you can finish those bad boys so adjust your orders accordingly. Highly recommend this place

The taco truck is located off Olympic near Brea and if you get there around 10 pm on a weekday there might be a lineup. Parking is tough to find just be patient something will open up. Its a cash only truck so come prepared and there isn't anywhere to sit so you just kinda find your own spot. Tacos are $1.25 each if I remember correctly and they are really good and they have all the staples like pastor, asada, lengua etc.

Been coming here since 2019. Al pastor is the best here, but everything else is also great

I recently visited El Chato food truck in Los Angeles, and it exceeded my expectations. The tacos were incredibly flavorful, with fresh ingredients and perfectly seasoned meats. The al pastor was a standout, bursting with tangy sweetness and a hint of spice. The staff was friendly and efficient, making the experience even more enjoyable. Prices were reasonable, and the portions were generous. If you're in LA and craving authentic, delicious tacos, El Chato food truck is a must-visit.

Had late night munchies and this place did not disappoint. Super tasty, salsa was good. I like their carne asada more than the al pastors.

Ever since covid hit I noticed quality of food dropped significantly at many of my favorite food places. El Chato Taco was not the exception. I don't know if the their food sucks or if it's just the way it's being packaged that makes the food bad, not appealing and taste the same.
