50 Best Food Trucks near El Cerrito

“my go-to burrito place. Always friendly service. I like my burritos very spicy, and la estrella is one of the few places that will go as heavy on the habanero as I like. Super fast if you order over the phone, too. I mostly eat vegetarian and they make a very good veggie burrito. The fish is good, too.“

“I highly recommend Mashallah Halal if you are looking for quality Lamb Curry✌🏾“

“Delicious frozen custard and very friendly staff. Lexie and Kevin
has been always empathetic and kind in my interactions with her. She has a good spirit and it shows up in the ice cream she makes.

The best part is there is a theatre across the street and the dance hall next door. Perfect delight to add to a delicious cup of an ice my tear.“

“Great people Great Food! Ask for the chicken skins.“

“Upbeat generous dude with tasty wholesome food.“

“Nice people and a nice crowd“

“What an incredible treat to experience--AND it's situated conveniently in a residential area for accessibility!

The churros are delicious in their own or with a variety of fillings. My favorite is the caramelo (caramel) filling that's made with goat milk. (It's like dulce de leche but warrrrrm.)

The people who run it are also the owners, which means they're invested in creating a friendly, community atmosphere and gladly cater to special requests.

Be prepared to pay either cash, use Zelle or get cash back from the nearby Mexican grocer. There's no option for card payments!“

“Delicious tacos!! I got a fish taco and a birria taco & horchata to go. The fish taco was pretty good, but AHH the birria!! The best birria taco I’ve ever had (I wish I got like 5 more), and the horchata tasted super distinct and was great as well. There’s a little parking lot on the side too and an eating area in front of the truck. Ugh but yeah the birria taco is insane.“

“I ordered the filled churros. One of each flavor (vanilla, strawberry and caramel) I’m glad they weren’t too sweet. Fried plantains with condensed milk were really good. The tacos de asada are flavorful but for $2.50 tacos I expected more meat in them.“

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

“CJ and team are excellent. The commissary is well maintained with all the equipment you'd need and if they don't have something they are open to working with you to figure out a solution. Super helpful staff and overall good people that you're sharing the space with. Would definitely recommend if you have a food business and need a licensed commercial kitchen. The staff are responsive and action-oriented which feels essential when working in a shared space.“

“Fresh from the fryer right, ya can't go wrong. They were delicious onto the Chocolate filled no doubt... A must add to ya diet, cheers and love to all!“

“Unique selection of food trucks on weekends- everything from Peruvian, Bulgarian, Indian, burgers, ice cream, and creative cocktails/wine. Several vendors offer excellent vegan options too.
On weekdays it's pretty lacking. Still it's a nice area to take a break and go for a nice walk.“

“Excellent service, the guy behind the counter was super friendly and energetic. He clearly takes pride in the food he makes and serving the community. The lemon pepper wings were juicy and crispy and cooked just right. The seasoning was strong, bright, and tangy. Their ranch was incredible -- it's homemade and had the perfect ratio of buttermilk and herbs. Would highly recommend, food and service are both great and deserving of 5 stars.“

“Our company hired them for a couple of events this week, one was for 50 people and the other event went from 50 to 150 people and I only gave her 1 days notice and they were extremely accommodating and everyone loved the food. Lots of compliments. We will definitely hire them for more of our events.“

“Spending some time in Cali for work and I wanted some food while I was waiting for my laundry to finish drying. Speedy’s was about 5 minutes away and I love tacos, so I decided to try it out. Absolutely DELICIOUS! I tried the asada, pollo, & pastor tacos; all the tacos were incredibly delicious, tender, and bursting with flavor! I also tried the quesabirrias; which was also absolutely delicious! 10/10 recommended!“

“Best lumpia ever, always fresh and crisp with just the right amount of filing“

“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.“

“Gotta get seafood. It’s in the name of the business. I had one shrimp taco and one fish taco. Both proteins were fried and breaded with an ample amount of slaw on top. Really good flavors. I preferred the shrimp since the texture was nice and bouncy, but the fish was good too.

There is a small tented area with two four-top tables. Other than that, I guess you gotta take it to go.

The staff was incredibly nice. Great service. I can’t wait to try the rest of their menu. A great addition to the neighborhood. In a sea of great taquerias and taco trucks in Richmond, you need to stand out and Mi Casita does just that.

UPDATE: Went back for a shrimp burrito and it’s fantastic. The shrimp is sautéed in this flavorful sauce. It’s up there with La Bamba’s shrimp burrito for sure.“

“amo las tortas De esta lonchera 😍😍“

“One of the best mexican food I’ve ever tasted. I love everything they served! The best comfort food. I hope can visit union city again.“

“I came here with a friend one day for lunch (we had been looking forward to coming to Sarap Shop for a while and were finally able to align our schedules for a weekday, since the hours here are somewhat limited). I ordered the lechon carbonara since all of the dishes here with lechon appeared to be a popular choice online and this seemed like interesting take on dishes that were familiar to me, a fusion of Italian carbonara and Filipino lechon. To be honest, the dish was a tad too oily and salty for my preferences, but also so tasty! I ended up finishing most of it and bringing the rest home since it was a generous portion and a good balance of toppings/mix-ins and noodles. I'd look forward to ordering it again in the future.

The location was a bit... uncertain at first. Sarap Shop is located down a side street off of 4th St which is convenient if you're heading down to a game or concert. I went there from 3rd St and was a bit confused since it just looked like a residential area, but there it was! The red garage door (see other people's pics) was open so the business was indeed open, but my friend and I were confused at first since there was no one inside and it took a moment to realize we needed to order by QR code online. That was all fine, just a bit unexpected. (Other customers and delivery drivers that came in after us looked similarly confused by all the closed doors and closed serving windows inside, so perhaps they just need better signage for these cases?)

Overall a good experience and I look forward to another visit here and the chance to try something new :)“

“Friendly local chef cooking up soulful cafe classics from the Hyatt parking lot. My kid loves eating a delicious beignet while watching the trains roll by across the way. Look for the colorful graffiti food truck and say hi to Jacob when you go!“

“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...“

“There are a lottt of taco trucks in the Fruitvale area, and I have to say this is one of the best ones. Affordable, delicious, customer service on point.
I mean come on, you get chips, and pickled jalapeños with your order. Hands down.“

“How do I even explain to you this is *the best* mocha I’ve ever had? I’m picky with my coffee, I usually just have an americano or espresso with no sugar, no cream and call it a day but I am SO GLAD I went for something different today.

It was just the right amount of sweetness, chocolate and richness with the milk/cream. Amazing. I’m not a local but if I was you’d see me here every day. Friendly staff too! :D

If you have the chance, give Lady Falcon Coffee Club a try!“

“Delicious, high quality food 🌯🥪🍳and very welcoming people 😊“

“todos lo k decime ahí es delicioso“

“todo delicioso 😋 y fresco y muy limpio“

“Lunch time away from work and you order your special beef burrito & enchilada for a friend w/a cold drink, while the music is playing, & a nice sunny weather dining in their mini patio: It feels like a piece of heaven! Yeah that good!!! Yum is the word!!! My go-to for burrito craving!!!“

“I've been driving past this amazing kitchen on wheels for the past yr and never have I bothered to stop & look. This ain't just a taco truck, they do breakfasts, burgers & birria. What more can you ask for. Run by nice folks. I'll definitely be back.“

“Tacos Sinaloa in Oakland is hands down the best taco spot around! Their food is consistently delicious, with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors that keep me coming back. I love their tacos, burritos, and pretty much everything on the menu! The staff is always friendly and efficient, making sure you're well taken care of.

Tacos Sinaloa even catered my wedding, and they absolutely nailed it! Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food, and it added such a special touch to our big day. The team was professional, punctual, and made the whole process seamless. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or need catering for a special event, Tacos Sinaloa is the way to go. Highly recommend!“

“hello everyone. A week ago, I was in San Francisco with a friend. We stopped at Pita Gyros and bought falafel and coffee. I've tried falafel in other places, this one was the best: fresh, crispy, the way I like it. There is also coffee and sweets. (everything is nearby), we were pleasantly surprised, the service was good and, most importantly for me, the kitchen and cooking area are very clean. I definitely recommend it!!!“

“Gyrrito is awesome tasty bizniss!!!!“

“Great pizza, reminds me of pizza from New York! ����“

“This place is a hidden Gem! I came here today, randomly, and ordered 5 Popusa revueltas! There were absolutely AMAZING! So flavorful and FRESH! The ladies that work there are super nice and sweet! I will be coming back whenever I’m in the east bay! Thank you Richmond Eats!!!“

“Quaint and delicious ?. I have now become a regular customer and eat here 2-3x per week. I love it. they know my order before I can even ask!????. Keep up the fantastic work guys. The community appreciates you all. My family loves the consistent quality of the fresh food you provide everyday.?“

“A Flavorful Journey to Zacatecas: A True Taste of Authentic Mexican Cuisine Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cecilia's Zacatecas Mexican Restaurant, and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience. As soon as I walked through the door, I was captivated by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The aroma of freshly prepared spices filled the air, instantly transporting me to the heart of Mexico. Cecilia's dedication to preserving the authentic flavors of Zacatecas cuisine shines through in every dish. The menu is a treasure trove of traditional delights, showcasing her expertise in crafting delectable recipes. The Birria, a slow-cooked stew bursting with rich flavors, was an absolute standout. Each spoonful was a heavenly blend of tender meat, aromatic spices, and a hint of smokiness. It was a true testament to the care and passion that goes into Cecilia's cooking. Another must-try at this restaurant is the Zacatecas-style Gorditas. These handheld delights are made with love and expertise, with a perfectly fluffy masa exterior encasing a variety of mouthwatering fillings. Whether you opt for savory meats or flavorful vegetarian options, each bite is a symphony of textures and tastes that will leave you craving more. To complement the meal, Cecilia offers traditional Mexican beverages that are as refreshing as they are authentic. The Café de la Olla is a fragrant and invigorating cup of coffee brewed with cinnamon and piloncillo, giving it a unique twist. And the Agua de Horchata, a rice and cinnamon-based drink, provides a soothing and creamy accompaniment to the vibrant flavors of the food. It's clear that Cecilia's passion for cooking stems from her upbringing and the invaluable knowledge passed down to her by her mother. Her dedication to preserving the culinary traditions of Zacatecas is evident in every plate she serves. Not only does she deliver exceptional food, but her warmth and welcoming nature also create an inviting ambiance that makes dining at her restaurant a truly memorable experience. In addition to her culinary prowess, Cecilia's persistence as a Latina business owner deserves applause. It is inspiring to see her success and how she has brought a taste of Zacatecas to our community. Supporting local businesses like Cecilia's is a way to celebrate culture and diversity while enjoying incredible food.“

“Great food on a great Sunday!“

“I work around the corner from Tacos El Rey and it's been the thing I miss most since we started working from home. By far the best burrito that I've encountered in the Bay Area. The carnitas is crispy and juicy and the pico de gallo is super fresh. Really friendly service and always reliable. Also a great price for MASSIVE portions. Really love this place.“

“Best taco truck I have found, their street tacos are awesome!!“

“Love the fresh and delicious food they serve always. Very friendly“

“Son las mejores pupusas del area! Las chicas siempre muy amables 💓💓 los platanitos siempre están riquísimos , suaves y dulces!“

“todo las tortas los tacos burritos #1“

“If you have the chance to experience Off the Grid in the Bay area, you must! The sweet potato fries from Love Burn were the summer crunch I needed last Friday. There are various local foods to try, live music, drinks, friendly staff, and people having a good time.“

“Ive been to the food truck & the storefront. The food consistency is the same at both! The meats are flavorful and they have a nice menu selection. Definitely recommend the steak & shrimp fries & also the cheesesteak egg rolls. The steak hoagie is also good (taste similar to the egg roll so cant go wrong).“

“Best Mexican food I’ve had in SF, and very friendly staff.“

“Ferociously respectable tacos here. Carne asada, carnitas, and al pastor we're all absolutely on point, and their salsa roja, is rich and smokey almost like a mole, and the staff is hella cool. Five stars across the board.
Directly adjacent to La familia market, on McDonald.“
