Great stop on the way to or from Mammoth! Fresh food, fast & tasty. Good prices. Husband said the burrito was excellent and he likes that they grilled it. I got al pastor tacos. Can’t beat a good Taco Truck!

We arrived in town and checked into our room for the night. The Hotel manager recommended we walk to the Taco Truck. We followed our noses and found Glenn’s. I tried the Chicken Mulita and a Cheese enchilada, my Husband had the Carne Asada Super Burrito. The salsa selection and the available add on items really added to the choices. We had a wonderful experience and would recommend Glenn's to others and will return on our next visit to Independence. We are from the San Jose area. Thanks to the Staff for the great meal and experience

Amazing food truck at an abandoned gas station in the middle of nowhere! Everything was very good, bit the mulitas are a must-try, they were absolutely delicious! The people working there were very friendly too, they offered each of us a free shaved ice cone :)

What a fantastic authentic food establishment. Very clean, great portions and prices, fantastic food. We stpped in and both had a burrito and it was as good as any I have ever eaten and much better than most. Their son Isaac (about 11 yrs old -best guess) was working and taking orders which was an extra nice touch. He had better hospitality manners than many waiters and waitresses in fine dining establishments I have eaten in. 5 out of 5 stars.

Friends always rave about this place as a pit stop coming or going from mammoth. 100% lived up to the hype. Authentic fresh food that tasted great. I had the chicken, pork and beef and all were flavorful. The sauces/chilli, I onions and cilantro were quite fresh. Gas station across the street makes it a great one stop shop for a pit stop. Also has a clean bathroom and seating outdoors!

Truly the best spot and gotta stop here every time I drive thru this town from now on! Got a bit of everything from asada burrito, cheese quesadilla, side of rice, and for good measure a bacon burrito for the road the next morning. Great service, very accommodating to our food allergies, the best family run taco truck.

Stopped here for dinner while traveling. Everything was fresh and delicious my favorite was the avocado salsa. We appreciated the tented seating area since it was windy. I’d definitely stop here again.

Quiet little place to stop and have really good Mexican food. The name of the building is kind of hard to see. It's in white letters with green wrapped around it. It's like an old fuel station. Cody corner across the street from a Shell gas station that also has diesel. I recommend the burrito for 13. You can't go wrong for burrito. That feels like it weighs 3 lb literally lol If the lights are on they are open.
