Our story

Family recipes on 4 wheels.

Every great taco starts with a family recipe, a lot of love, and a whole lot of hungry friends.

From our kitchen

Made from scratch, always.

Tacos La Gorda started the way the best things do — a family recipe, a lot of love, and a whole lot of hungry friends. What began as cooking for the people we love turned into a food truck serving the Orange County neighborhoods we grew up in.

Everything is made from scratch: salsas blended fresh daily, tortillas griddled to order, aguas frescas pressed fresh. No shortcuts, no pre-packaged anything. If it doesn't taste like abuela made it, we're not done with it yet.

We're a rolling operation, so you'll usually find us somewhere new across Orange County. Follow@tacosgordato see where the truck lands next.

Something extra

Tacos & Tiny Tabbies

Between serving tacos, we foster kittens. Stop by the truck and you might just meet our current crew — they hang around the window waiting for scraps (and pets).

We're always looking for forever homes. Ask us about adopting, or follow along on Instagram to meet the cats of the week.
