I'm trying to remember what I ordered. I think I ordered the bulgogi tacos last year and forgot to do a review, but I always remember my tacos. I order tacos a lot in different places. This food truck is a staple around 6th ave. The tacos are perfect to the tee. Service was great and tacos were delicious! If you want great tacos, just stop by at the AV Foodtruck. 5 out of 5 stars. - raizza villanueva reyes
