Korean taco trucks are part of the growing assortment truck-based cuisine, offering a simple fusion of Korean-style marinated meat with Mexican tacos. Although, it’s not as simple as just replacing taco meat with Korean barbecue.
Privately owned Kogi BBQ was the first Korean taco truck and it now operates four trucks in the Los Angeles area. Calbi Fusion Tacos and Burritos, started last year and is now owned by Baja Fresh Mexican Grill, operates arguably the largest fleet of Korean taco trucks in the U.S., with six trucks in Los Angeles and active interest in franchisees.
