“best tacos 🌮🇮🇹🐍🦅 in San Francisco 🚩🏟📍49ers 🏈 maybe 🤷 😂24th street 💘“

“Delicious. I’ve had their tacos, torta and soul bowl and they always hit the spot. Best jamaica I can find around here as well. I grew up on Mexican and I am not easy to impress but they have a unique and tasty menu. Go here whenever you’re in Emeryville, don’t even look at anything else.“

“Great food, good service, and a wonderful overall experience.“

“One of the best places to eat, have eaten here at least 100 times and had just about everything on the menu. Everything is fantastic, but do yourself a favor and come here for brunch sometime and get the huevos (egg) taco (or 2 or 3). It's one of the most delicious things you'll ever taste.“

“DELICIOUS🌮🍤🔥❤️👍🏽! 5 ⭐️'s! This is definitely going to be one of my new spots. Don't second guess if you are looking for some good Mexican food🌮🔥❤️. I had been fasting all day and just got out of my doctor's appointment around 530pm. I was starving on Taco Tuesdays😉lol. I looked up on Google best super tacos in San Francisco in the Mission area! Well,We'll, popped up with the most stars⭐️😉. I ordered the Tijuana style tacos🌮, handmade tortilla, grilled cheese, one shrimp🍤(Clean jumbo prawns👍🏽🍤❤️) and one steak, onions, cilantro and guacamole on the side. They were so nice💜! They even added in some chips when I asked do they come with chips. The chips were fresh and warm still. When I got home my food was still warm but I did have it in a warmer bag from doordash LOL. This restaurant was very clean and they also have the condiments of different type of sauces in clean squeezable bottles, self service packaging. Everything was delicious and seasoned to perfection. Thank you all🙏🏼! You just gained a new customer abd many more with my popular reviews 😉⭐️❤️🔥🌮! By Queen Diamond 👑💎😘“

“el sazón está muy bueno,las personas muy amables“

“We were looking for a taco place with my sister and we found this place. It is very clean and very friendly. It is so delicious, especially the tacos al pastor and the burritos are super large. I recommend them“

“This is the food truck spot for tacos in San Francisco’s Mission District. The tacos are loaded and the sauces are nice and spicy. I love all the veggie’s they add on the side as well. Easy to pick up to-go or chill at the tables they have outside. I got 4 tacos for $17. Well worth the price and always happy to support small local businesses like this. This was a great way to celebrate Cinco De Mayo.“

“really like this place because it's family-friendly and has a variety of food. I like it because they have burritos. I highly recommend it.“

“10/10 highly recommend! Fresh, tasty, quality ingredients prepared and plated to perfection! Portion sizes are worth the price. Affordable, tasty eats with excellent customer service in a lovely outdoor setting. My son and I had the fish tacos and shared a steak & shrimp birria taco. OMG! INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS AND FLAVORFUL, down to the sliced carrots! I was visiting from the East Coast where they know NOTHING about authentic Mexican food! I could eat at La Grana Fish EVERY DAY!“

“The fish tacos were really good, one of the best I've ever had“

“Our server Gwen helped us find the best Burritos that I have had in a very long time!

We tried the Jackfruit Vegetarian option - ask them to add Tater Tots instead of Rice and ooh. That made all the difference.

We had Guac and Chips which were good as well. Will definitely be going back to get more recommendations and try more food.

Thanks for the recs!“

“The tamales are so good!!“

“👍🌮🌮🌮🌮🌯🌯🌯🍛🍛🥘🥙🥗🍤🍤🍗🌮🌮🌮🌮🍺🍺🍳🌮🌯🌮“

“It was the friendliest salsa scene I've been to in years--Sunday at four to eight. And the food was gorgeous, and the staff super helpful.“

“Tasty! The Asada was perfect and generous amounts“

“One of my favorite places to eat in the WORLD! I live in Missouri now and it was my first stop off of the plane when we visited! Chicken taco supers spicy.“

“This place looks a little 'sketchy', BUT the food is very good. I was working an event at the Oakland Colesium, and this was the only place you could walk to. If you can speak a little Spanish, it goes a long way. I got the Cubana sandwich, and it was so big, I could only eat half of it.“

“Omg! this place ess awesome! the chicken & waffles were to die for.. I will be returning.soon!“

“This was the best Mexican food I’ve had in almost 15 years. I’m going to be visiting a lot. Good drinks and great food.“

“All of their food is delicious🔥🤤😋“

“best street corn ever !! looking forward to trying there other stuff“

“The food was delicious and fresh.“

“Great quality, always get it the way you ask for it, reasonable prices.... I stayed on a late night truck run when my wife was pregnant. You could throw a rock and hit 5 taco trucks in the same area and none are as good. There's this one guy who always asks about my kids always is friendly but he's the same way with everyone, no favorites. Quality spot in the cut...“

“I can’t recommend this place enough! From the moment we started planning my celebration, the owner and staff went above and beyond to make everything perfect. They were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and made the entire experience stress-free.

The food was absolutely amazing, and every single one of my family and friends couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved everything. The service, atmosphere, and attention to detail exceeded all of our expectations.

Thank you Pepe for making my celebration so special and memorable. We will definitely be back, and I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and exceptional hospitality!“

“El Tepa is a fantastic spot for authentic Mexican food. The flavors are fresh, bold, and satisfying, with generous portions that make every meal worth it. The tacos, burritos, and house specialties are packed with flavor, and the salsa adds the perfect kick. The staff is friendly, attentive, and welcoming, creating a comfortable dining experience. Whether you're stopping by for lunch, dinner, or takeout, El Tepa consistently delivers great food, excellent service, and outstanding value.“

“The food, drinks, staff and atmosphere was excellent. This is my nephews favorite spot. Thanks Kelly for our family outing today.“

“Awesome experience and great food.“

“Still thinking about these tacos

I’ve traveled throughout Baja/BCS, and I would say that these are on par with those if not better. The batter was not too heavy and you could really taste the fish - the slaw + salsa was in perfect balance. I think the fish was better than the shrimp tacos, but will need to eat many more to really know.

I got the ceviche crude and it was better than fancy restaurants with stunning views of the Pacific.

Come here, eat lots, repeat.“

“The fish tacos were really good, one of the best I've ever had“

“I swear these tacos de Barbacoa are crack. SOO DELICIOUS!“

“The BEST quesabirria place in the east bay! I drive all the way over to Richmond from Oakland when I want quesabirrias, there’s something special about the spices in the meat and the perfectly done tortillas. One of my favorite comfort foods. The steak tacos are also absolutely delicious! Would give 10 stars. Also everyone there is super nice!“

“People: do try the green pozole, breakfast burrito, chile relleno (the chile relleno is exceptionally good), and ceviche. I have tried the mentioned dishes more than twice and the consistency is always the same: excellent! Yum, yum!“

“Everyone was so kind!! We stopped in here after we checked into our hotel, hungry as ever. Best flan ever!! I saw it glistening in the case and HAD TO HAVE A PIECE. Should have bought the whole thing but I had some discipline lol perfect in every way. Love me a little sweet treat ♥“

“delicious food, very very fresh. the Steak/Shrimp burrito was incredible“

“It’s the best Restaurant in town came with Family and we had a great time! Food was great and drinks 🍹 we all loved the dessert as well! Just amazing service and food! My Favorite for sure! 2914 College Ave Berkeley Ca“

“Picked up a burrito here for lunch today, what a great find! The shop was sparkling clean and the aroma of the fresh food was enticing.
I ordered a Pollo Asado burrito and it was about as big as my 14 lb. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. There was so much chicken! Well seasoned rice and pinto beans that were firm but perfectly cooked. The guacamole was fresh and plentiful.
The burrito was so big I'll be having it for dinner tonight or maybe lunch tomorrow.
The value was fantastic for the quality and quantity.“

“The food here is pretty fire. I’ve been to a lot of Latin restaurants around the area and this has to be one of the best hands down. I have yet to try the pupusa’s though— that’s deff next on the list 🔥“

“I hope I find this in heaven. Hands-down, one of the best Carnitas I’ve had. Run out of a taco truck in a very unassuming location. Juicy, tender and they give generous portions. I got that fairly late at 2PM and everything was sold out except for the carne. The person I spoke to said to come early usually before noon if you want to have a taste of everything else. There are two tents set up with tables and chairs.“

“Delicious tacos with tender meat. Their stand is not guaranteed to be here every day but when they’re here they usually set up around 5-6pm and stay until midnight. As of this posting (5/10/26) they’ve been showing up almost every day for a week so keeping my fingers crossed for a long run this time!
They split their time between here and another location in San Mateo. I’ve also seen them set up on International Blvd
They take both cash and card, but charge a fee for card“

“I'll tell you...the Tacos El Rey Food Truck is a great stop for lunch! I had to wait a while to pick up my custom made Harpoon heads from the Iron Works place so I walked over to the El Rey taco truck, and got a couple of chicken tacos grande, and they were amazing! The flavors and textures were deliciously authentic! 5 ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Nachos are delicious!! Enough toppings for just about every chip! Expensive though. They didn't have our online order because their boss didn't send it to them? Had to use most of my lunch break waiting for food and they never offered extra salsa or a free drink to make up for their mess up and they said no when I asked.“

“Tacos Los Primos is a great place for real authentic Mexican food, whatever you choose is going to be amazing!
I ordered a bunch stuff for the day laborers that were helping old lady Pucklepuss straighten up her hedgerow and got a sampler of Taquitos while I was waiting, and they were the best I've ever had!
5 ☆☆☆☆☆ for sure, no shit!“

“? Alright folks, here’s the deal: Living in Alameda has me often yearning for some legit taco action. But I’ve found that I usually need to head over to Oakland to truly satisfy those cravings. And that’s exactly how I ended up at this taco truck!Nestled in Oakland, this spot was a serendipitous find on an evening adventure. The setting is chill, making it the perfect backdrop for some true street taco vibes. And speaking of streets, there’s a handy parking lot right at the corner, so you can just park and wander over with ease.I dove into two pastor and two carne asada tacos, and even though they’re on the petite side, they don’t skimp on flavor. My plate was brimming with extras - a generous helping of radishes and jalapeños which added that fresh zing to every bite. And oh, those salsas! Perfectly spiced and absolutely delightful.Now, are these the all-time champions of my taco experiences? Maybe not. But when the taco craving hits in Alameda, this Oakland gem is definitely worth the short trek. Can’t wait to see what the rest of their menu holds on my next visit!“

“Oh my! I had my best tacos here last night.
Another bonus is they’re literally the only taco truck in SF open till late
The tacos were so yummy plus the packed nachos and salsa verde + rojo was so thoughtful and kind“

“Delicious Mexican food freshly prepared while you wait. There’s some seating available, but I went with takeout instead. The prices are very reasonable and everything I’ve tried so far is great! This time I got the quesadillas with a mix of al pastor and chicken. There’s plenty of competition around them so they make sure those flavors are going to win the folks over. Definitely a place to check out!“
