California food trucks topped the nationwide rank, with Los California Tacos in Pasadena dominating the top spot on the list. The owners behind Los California Tacos, Victor and Juan Garcia, were among the first food truck pioneers when they set-up their moving shop in 1979.
Today, the food truck boasts almost one thousand reviews and a 4.5-star rating — as well as a spectacular two-buck taco deal.

But Los Angeles wasn't the only county to see glory. An Orange County food truck ranked fifth on the list for its "distinctively upscale taste to the streets of Orange County without all the fuss and nonsense of a high-end restaurant," Zen Business reported.
The chefs behind The Burnt Truck are highly-trained and offer a variety of American and Asian classics. Whether you're feeling a sloppy joe or chicken katsu, the food truck keeps it casual by serving every dish as a slider, Zen Business said.
San Diego County joined the nationwide list, with Phatties in Escondido ranking tenth best food truck in America. Phatties specializes in vegan Mexican food, boasting four and-a-half stars and over 400 reviews on Yelp.
