Taco Truck in Downtown Modesto
If you’re craving flavorful, freshly made Mexican food, Tacos El Viejon is a must-visit! They’ve got two locations—a restaurant in Ceres, CA and this taco truck located in downtown Modesto.
Everything is made to order, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The meat is always cooked to perfection—a little crispy, packed with flavor, and so satisfying. Their salsa is fresh and has just the right amount of heat, and don’t even get me started on the guacamole—super fresh and they don’t hold back with the portions.
It’s the perfect spot to stop by on a warm summer evening, grab your favorites, and enjoy some seriously good eats.
If you’re searching for not just good tacos, but next-level Mexican food served with love, energy, and a true community spirit — look no further than Tacos El Viejon. With two bustling locations in Modesto and Ceres, this family-owned spot is not just serving meals; they’re delivering experiences.
The People Behind the Flavor:
What makes El Viejon really stand out isn’t just the food (though it’s out of this world) — it’s the owners and the team. From the moment you walk up, you’re greeted with warm smiles, a welcoming vibe, and staff who are genuinely happy to serve. You can feel the pride in everything they do — from the way they take your order to the way they perfectly plate up every taco, burrito, and Mulita. These aren’t just workers — they’re people who care deeply about their community and their craft.
The Food: A Fiesta in Every Bite
Let’s talk food. El Viejon doesn’t play when it comes to flavor. Whether you’re at the Modesto or Ceres spot, everything is made fresh to order. The homemade tortillas? Soft, warm, and full of flavor. The meat? Juicy, tender, and seasoned to perfection. From the iconic Tacos to the generously filled Burritos, the cheesy goodness of Quesadillas, the bold flavors in their Tortas and Mulitas , to the local favorite — Beto’s Green Grass — every bite hits like a party in your mouth.
And we can’t forget about the salsas — oh man. Whether you like it fiery or mild, they’ve got that perfect mix of spice and flavor. Their salsa game is STRONG.
Community Love
This place is more than just a taco stand — it’s a gathering place. Whether you’re a regular or a first-timer, they treat you like family. They support the community, uplift others, and go the extra mile every single day. That’s rare — and it’s why they’ve earned such loyal love across Modesto and Ceres.
Show Some Love!
If you’ve ever eaten at Tacos El Viejon, you know it’s the real deal. And if you haven’t yet — what are you waiting for?! Go visit either location, bring your friends and family, and taste the difference that love, pride, and authentic recipes make.

The service isn’t terrible but there was miss communication at the end. For the price its not worth it at all. These are their nachos.
