A freshly made tortilla gets covered in homemade refried beans and rice.

Asada is added hot off the grill and topped with three different kinds of cheeses are melted on top with Hot Cheetos.

Owner Jacob Gomez has been creating his Hot Cheeto combinations years before it became popular on the foodie scene.

“In my food truck, that was all we did was put Hot Cheetos in every single item,” said Gomez.

All of his food is made from scratch daily - like their pastor marinated overnight with Jarritos orange soda and spices.

He attributes the success of the restaurant to the help of his family and friends, especially his mother, Sally Zuniga, who rolls out fresh tortillas daily.

“I just love making tortillas since I was fourteen years old,” said Zuniga.

Both Gomez’s taco truck and restaurant have delicious options for Hot Cheeto lovers - like their cheesy Hot Cheeto quesadilla.

Other favorites are the hood rat burger, enchiladas and barbacoa tortas.

The shop is fun and welcoming, and the food is outrageous.
