I have eaten a lot of burritos from many different food trucks and I am happy to report that this food truck is one of the best ones that make very delicious burritos. It sits well in my stomach and doesn't make me feel bad later. I believe they have quality food. They work hard to make it taste good.“

“Garlic fresh fries: FABULOUS BREWHOUSE burger: SUPER DELICIOUS. Staff attention: THE GREATEST. I don't agree with many people here giving so bad reviews about this place. Please be kind, nice, give a smile enjoy your meals and forgive the owners for not helping employees properly. I even noticed a nice "PINK" Ford Fusion parked outside.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“It's soo hard to find good vegan tacos. I am very picky and a vegan meat snob. Visited this place for the first time today. The mushroom pastor tacos were PERFECT. So good. Portions are great, reasonably priced. Only thing is finding parking is a little tricky but that's typical of anywhere in the bay. Will be back for sure.“

“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!“

“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!“

“? 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!“

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

“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...“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“The food was delicious and fresh.“

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

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

“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.“

“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 ♥“

“I stopped by Street Taco in San Francisco and really enjoyed the food. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with well-seasoned meat and toppings. Everything tasted authentic and satisfying, just like classic Mexican street food. The place has a casual, relaxed vibe, and the service was quick and friendly. It’s a great spot if you’re craving simple, delicious tacos in the city.“

“tacos were bomb and the salsas were delicious.. we will be going back“

“Deliciosas las Militas de asada y los sopes ni se diga recomendó vista los tacos Las Palmas 🌴 te gustará se lo que te digo 🌹“

“hella tight................“

“i love the baja fish tacos really good, and the maizena de coco delicious!“

“I've been ordering from Tacos Etzatlan #2 for about the last 6 months consistently (though my belly has been unhappy about it). I am absolutely addicted to their food. In fact, this is likely the best food truck I've tried in my life! Make no mistake this isn't to be taken lightly as I am a huge foodie who is personally obsessed with trying tacos from everywhere I can (including doing tasting tours in Mexico).

My personal favorites are the asada tacos and their asada super burritos. I rarely eat an entire burrito that big but believe me, these are so tasty that I don't leave anything behind. My kids love this spot so much that they call them the best burritos in the world.

What's the secret sauce? The ingredients are so fresh, flavors stay in your mouth.

Options galore (tacos, tortas, burrito, etc) which have satisfied many cravings I have had. Customer service is A+ and it is Latina owned and run which I am always thrilled to support! They are fast but you can call in your order if you are in a rush!

I saw several reviews that they are cash only- that is no longer the case so bring your favorite plastic and enjoy!!

Do yourself a favor and support this small business with some incredible tasting Mexican food. I'm getting hungry just thinking about this spot :) Mmmmm...They close right at 1pm so be there before and prepare to be blown away.“

“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 🔥“

“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.“

“Carnitas El Canelo makes blue corn tortilla tacos, with the most amount of carnitas in all of Richmond and beyond! I’m not kidding, one taco is enough for two people! Quick efficient service, with a smile. Everything is super fresh. The only place that I’ve tried the strawberry horchata at. They also make a milanesa and ham torta (cemita) that is great as well. You can eat there. I recommended ordering it to go. Enjoy!“

“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!“

“Food is hot. and super delicious“

“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“

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

“Great food on a great Sunday!“

“New fav taco truck! Shrimp tacos were great.“

“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!“

“Delicious food. Love the fish tacos (one of the best I have tried) Mushroom quesadilla. Guac and chips. Want to try more, but hard to pass up those fish tacos.“

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

“Best tamales hands down. Before opening her restaurant, I was at La Finca asking where I could get the best tamales and they gave me her number. They were moist and full of flavor. Everyone at my party loved them. I’m so happy to see she has her own restaurant. You must try the food!“

“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.“
