Wet burrito, Quesaderas Birria and a Chickem Burrito. Yum! LOTS of flavor, ingredients tasted fresh and definitely hit that "satisfy a craving" spot! I have been searching for a good birria...SO EXCITED I found it! We all shared our food because, well.... look at it! We had to! It was SO good! And fast!! They also have an area that is sheltered from the elements you can eat in if you don't want to take it on the road. FANTASTIC!! We will definitely go back!

My new favorite carne asada burrito! The meat was rich and clearly grilled. Fillings were the usual rice and beans and tasty. The red salsa added a nice touch. Parking very easy. Recommended.

Their wet burritos are ginormous! 8" long, 4" wide, 2" tall 64 cubic inches of burrito. At a price of 10, that's about 16/in3. Suffice to say, when I order a wet burrito here, it lasts 2-3 meals. Carnitas are delish. Not the #1 best carnitas I've ever had, but that's not surprising as it's my favorite meat for Mexican food, so I've had carnitas from a LOT of places around Seattle and other parts of the country Mexico.

I had two fish tacos, very nice presentation and SO much flavor! The grilled half jalapeno and sauteed onions was such a nice touch, too! I can feel the love that goes into the food! Better than the sit down Mexican restaurants, in the area, hands down! Cashier super friendly and nice, best food truck in Seattle!

Asked for a bacon and egg burrito. It was seasoned with something amazing and was really good! Salsa/hot sauce was very flavorful. I was looking for a quick lean breakfast and this really hit the spot. It was more expensive than the menu burrito with rice and beans, and well worth it!

Definitely some of the best tacos in the North end. I like that they fry the outer tortilla a bit to give it some crispness and so it they don't fall apart. Price and portion all standard for Seattle truck tacos. Salsas were a little watery but still flavorful. Cashier was nice. I'll be back!

I want to let everyone know that Anita’s Mexican Food truck has moved to 10203 Aurora Ave N Seattle. It’s the old Seattle Cycle building. Soon they will have inside dining. The food is excellent and the staff is amazing.
