Expanding Our Restaurant with a Food Truck
Indulge in a savory journey through the vibrant flavors of Mexico as we unveil our latest culinary adventure: Tacos El Cabrón To Go Food Truck, hitting the streets of San Diego on February 11, 2024. This isn’t just food—it’s an experience, and our mission is simple yet bold: to bring the true essence of Mexican street food to every corner of our beloved city.
Crafting Authentic Mexican Tacos
While the exact origins of tacos in the United States aren’t known, according to the Smithsonian, tacos were introduced in the early 1900s when Mexican migrants arrived to work in mining and railroad construction jobs. In the U.S., Americans mostly considered tacos as street food sold during festivals.
Tacos then started becoming popular thanks to the children of first-generation immigrants retaining ties with their cultural heritage. While many restaurants sell Mexican tacos to Americans, nothing can compare with the success of Mexican-owned food trucks.
At Tacos El Cabrón To Go Food Truck, our mission is to bring authentic Mexican tacos to the United States. Selling tacos in a food truck adds to this authenticity, reflecting and honoring the origins of tacos as street food.
Tacos on the Go
There’s another reason why we are so proud of expanding Tacos El Cabrón with a food truck. You no longer need to interrupt your day on the glorious Pacific Beach in San Diego to drive to a restaurant where you’d be locked inside on a hot summer day (if the patio is full).
With our food truck as an anchor point, your adventures at Pacific Beach in San Diego will unfold like this. Start your day by fueling up with a Birria Taco, a beloved Mexican dish featuring tender, slow-cooked meat enveloped in a warm corn tortilla and served with a flavorful consommé for dipping. The rich, savory flavors provide the perfect kickstart to your day of beach exploration.
As the sun reaches its zenith and appetites stir, opt for a Carne Asada Taco that features thinly sliced, marinated steak grilled to juicy perfection and nestled in a soft tortilla, accompanied by fresh salsa, guacamole, and a squeeze of lime.
For those craving a lighter option, the Chicken Taco offers a delightful alternative. Pieces of grilled or shredded chicken, seasoned with a blend of spices and nestled in a warm tortilla, provide a flavorful and satisfying bite. Topped with crisp lettuce, diced tomatoes, and tangy salsa, this taco is a refreshing choice for a sunny day at the beach.
For a truly indulgent experience, treat yourself to the Surf & Turf Taco, a luxurious fusion of land and sea. Succulent grilled steak meets tender, flavorful shrimp. Drizzled with creamy avocado sauce and a squeeze of lime, this taco is perfect for an afternoon spent by the Pacific Ocean.
Catering for Special Events
Our food truck also allows us to forge more meaningful connections with our clients. We are more than happy to cater to special events, helping you make your party unforgettable.
One of the most rewarding aspects of operating a food truck is that it allows us to engage directly with our customers in a more personal setting. Unlike dining in a restaurant, where interactions may be brief, the casual atmosphere of a food truck encourages conversation and connection. We love nothing more than chatting with our customers as we prepare their meals, learning about their preferences, sharing stories, and forging genuine connections that go beyond just food.
The mobility of our food truck allows us to connect with communities in San Diego that we may not have otherwise reached. By expanding our restaurant with a food truck, we have the opportunity to introduce our Mexican cuisine to a wider range of people, spreading joy and deliciousness wherever we go.

Menu Tailored to Your Tastes
One of the most appealing aspects of food trucks is their versatility. Unlike restaurants that often require reservations weeks in advance and can quickly reach full capacity, especially in the summertime, food trucks operate on a different rhythm.
There’s no need to worry about being turned away due to a fully booked dining room. Instead, you can simply stroll up to the truck, peruse the menu, and place your order.
Picture this: handmade tortillas sizzling on the grill, fresh homemade salsas bursting with flavor, and traditional tacos and burritos crafted with love. This is the promise of our food truck experience, and it will never fail to deliver.
Adding a food truck to our restaurant has brought us immense happiness. Our team at Tacos El Cabrón To Go Food Truck looks forward to making you some delectable tacos on the Pacific Beach in San Diego. Feel free to stop by!
