Tacos El Gordo — Restaurant in Tukwila

My husband treated me to lunch & on the way to Azteca we looked up taco food trucks & this came up, we went. The truck is beautiful, it's a whole vibe. The man taking our order was very polite and so was the lady preparing the food. We ordered our food (2 tacos, asada burrito, asada fries, & 2 cokes). The man said about 10 minutes, & they had our order ready in less than 10 minutes.

ANYWHO, the food!! Hands down, the best tacos I have ever had! My husband ordered the asada fries, he opened up his plate & it was CURLY FRIES, ain't no way right?! BUT YES WAY JOSE!! The fries were delicious! I ordered the burrito & no cap...THE BEST ASADA BURRITO I'VE EVER HAD! Not only did they season their food reallllly well but it wasn't messy! I highly recommend Tacos el gordo. Definitely going...

Pastor and carnitas tacos are super delicious. Pastor had delicious flavor, but was missing the pineapple. And the carnitas were crispy and delicious! They have good salsas as well. Normally I tend to prefer green but their red was super good.. We ate there, they have a couple outdoor benches but they could have been a bit cleaner lol. Ended up ordering again, a carnitas mulita to go and it was super good. Melty, stringy cheese and the tortilla was crisp and yummy. For those who don't know what a mulita is, it's basically a quesadilla sandwich with 2 corn tortillas that's lightly fried sandwiching a meat of your choice and cheese....

These are definitely good tacos with real taqueria manning each station. I will say that I expected the tortillas to be a little softer and for things to have just a little bit more succulence. The adobada is al pastor as far as I could tell. For the price of these tacos this is not a street tacos/just like in Mexico experience, these are pricey . You can get tacos here that would be hard to find anywhere else in Downtown SD and the cafeteria style ordering is unique. They will definitely do when you’re looking for...
