“ My favorite place to get yummy Mexican food. We have been coming here for the last 6-7 years. I always get the El Pastor (soo delicious) and my hubby always gets the carna asada burritos. Some times the burritos can be on the smaller side but the flavors and freshness of the food is the reason I continue to return not to mention the speedy service. I haven't been disappointed with anything I've order from Mr Jalapeño! ”
“ We ordered the carne asada super burritos and they were delicious and the service was awesome! ”
“ Been here several times before, but I must give them some serious props. The breakfast burritos are more of a meal in a tortilla. Everything in their burritos is tasty and plentiful. The food is fresh and good. Make sure you stop by their food truck or their establishment on Railroad. Support your local establishments. ”
“ This is our go to truck for Al pastor tacos, sopes, and nachos and breakfast chorizo burritos, you can't go wrong with the truck, great food and great service always.. ”
“ Amazing Pastor. Beautifully prepared burrito. Perfect amount of sweet savory and smoky/char on meat. Love the grilled almost candied like pineapple pieces that add to accent the rest of the ensemble. Only downside is the hours aren't reliable in yelp. They should be adjusted. ”
“ Mr. Jalapeño is a Food Truck that sells fresh and delishes BURRITOs and more. I really enjoy their Super Al Pastor Burrito with extra pineapples. It's the BOMB. My husband says it's the best burrito in Contra Costa. He enjoys their steak burrito. Highly recommend this food truck if you're in the area. The staff are super friendly too. ”
“ My review is for the steak taco. It was seasoned soooooo well. I'm so impressed. It's been raining like crazy so I'll go back and take pics once the weather clears up. So good! ”
“ Food truck review! Before the pandemic, we had a single generic foodtruck at our workplace M-F for breakfast and lunch. It was ran by two nice Vietnamese ladies and they crank out decent Mexican food and occasional weekly specials and even rice plates. They must have been there for like 5-10 years, but have since disappeared between 2021-2022. Maybe they retired from all that business we gave them, LOL! Nowadays, our workplace hosts a random gourmet food truck T-Th. Prices are higher for sure, but the variety and quality has increased too. Mr. Jalapeno is one of my favorite options for Mexican food, especially quesadillas! Quesadillas are my favorite Mexican dish for a variety of reasons: 1. Not as dense or filling as a burrito 2. Not as light or messy as tacos, where you need 3-4 to get full 3. Not as messy as a tortas, where sauce can often leak everywhere 4. Does not require utensils unlike a burrito bowl or rice plate. There's something perfect with having cheese and grilled meats fused together and sandwiched between two flour tortillas that are both crispy yet soft as you chew them. Cut them up into neat triangular wedges and you get a no-mess, easy to eat lunch that's perfect. Both pastor and chicken are excellent, and I'm looking to try the rest of their meat options. Also enjoy the small sides of chips, grilled sweet onions, and yes the grilled jalapeno. Although the jalapeno is not the spiciest pepper out there, it brings plenty of heat for me! ”
