50 Best Food Trucks near Emeryville

“I would eat here again if I was staying at the Hyatt house again. 5 stars for atmosphere because it is close enough to enjoy your food in your room! It is a good atmosphere outside by the truck too but not lots of seating or cute decor if thats what you're looking for.

I was given a free beignet, fresh and hot to enjoy while I waited.

They didn't have the burger when I was there and I was between the mushroom sandwich or a chicken thigh pita. If I could go back, maybe next time I would try the chicken pita. The mushroom sandwich was good but I am personally not a fan of very thick bread. The fries were delicious, thick cut fries and fried perfectly. Nice and hot. Friendly service“

“Best tacos in Napa by far !“

“Consistent, kind, and delicious. Been working on the street they're parked on for a long while and the thing I'll miss most about this job ending is grabbing a top notch burrito whenever I want.Only recently tried a breakfast burrito and it was so good.Currently eating a carne asada burrito with just beans and salsa and I could not be happier.Support these good folks!“

“(Translated by Google) Alicia is a truck where a day spent in the city of Emerville is fabulous, sitting in the park, eating, enjoying that area is nice, and the owners are very friendly and fast.(Original)Alicia es una troca donde un día de pasada por la ciudad de emerville es fabulosa sentarse en el parque comer disfrutar de esa área es nice además las dueñas son muy amables y rápidas.“

“The food was truly incredible - I was blown away by the flavors! The halwa puri, nihari, and pani puri were all standout dishes. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious meal.“

“If you haven't tried frozen custard yet, you should know it's the best type of ice cream. It has the scoopability of hard serve with the lickability of soft serve. Top-notch texture, super creamy, perfectly sweet.

Lexie's is the best ice cream shop in Berkeley!!! Maybe in the whole state :) So come try their frozen custard!!“

“The ladies who were working there today were really nice. I had a beef taco and it was very good. Spicy as we love it! It came with jalapeño, grilled onions and lime. I ate it at home with rice and salad, cucumber (picture with the plate). But the take away is well done, in a box and covered by foil paper.“

“Consistently great tacos burritos or quesadillas the only reason I didnt list anything else was i havent tried the other items. It gets better the crew running the truck are awesome if I ever forget my order they'll remember. Good food and good people.“

“Upbeat generous dude with tasty wholesome food.“

“Food was good. The quality was good but they have to work on the business portion of things instead of being high priced. to make profit isnt about high price. paid $35 and she asked me what I want with it and I said goat. Im thinking since I paid that much it was included but they charged me separate for the goat about $6 and I ordered 2 extra $3.50 starch, Out the door like $49. they need a reasonable price 2 keep people coming back than a high price dat keeps people thinking maybe. It could taste good but you're competing with every other restaurant that got $15 plates. I got a lot more to help them improve but they gonna have 2 pay me for that 😭“

“Los tacos muy ricos y las salsas muy ricas también“

“We ordered fried chicken, mac and cheese, greens, and yams for our work Black History Month event, and everything was absolutely delicious! The food arrived hot, fresh, and perfectly prepared.

It added such a special touch to our celebration and gave attendees a wonderful taste of soul food that truly complemented the spirit of the event. Guests were going back for seconds and thirds — which says it all! 😊

Rome himself delivered the food right on time and provided excellent customer service. He was professional, friendly, and made the entire experience seamless.

Thank you for helping make our event memorable — we will definitely be ordering again“

“Even though we didn’t end up renting from City View Commissary, we felt compelled to leave a review because the experience and customer service were truly exceptional.

The venue itself is beautiful, clean, spacious, and thoughtfully maintained. & a kitchen space could be included in the rental. It’s the kind of space you can easily imagine transformed for a special event. But what really stood out was CJ’s kindness and humanity.

We had just lost our wedding venue only weeks before our wedding. An incredibly stressful and emotional situation and CJ was beyond understanding and compassionate. He was willing to work with us, took the time to listen to our needs, and never made us feel rushed or pressured. Even more impressively, he went above and beyond by connecting us with another venue that ended up being a better fit for our wedding, even while we were actively touring his space.

That level of integrity, empathy, and genuine care is rare. City View Commissary is not only a lovely venue, but it’s run by people who truly care about others and that matters. We’re incredibly grateful to CJ and highly recommend City View Commissary to anyone looking for a space and an outstanding team behind it.“

“good selection of flavors! its a lil crazy for two scoops of ice cream to cost 7 dollars tho 😅 tried four flavors: thai tea, salty kaya, biscoff, and black sesame. the thai tea is incredibly good, so creamy, and its vegan! the salty kaya's unique, almost reminiscent of a salted cream foam with a subtle hint of pandan/coconut. def recommend those two flavors!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Zees Munchies Truck is an absolute gem! The crêpes are really, really good—perfectly made, flavorful, and loaded with toppings. They are very generous with portions, so you definitely get your money’s worth. Everything tastes fresh, rich, and satisfying without being overwhelming. Great flavors, great presentation, and friendly service. If you’re craving something sweet, this food truck is a must-try. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“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!“

“Delicioso Sazón vengan prueben y comprueben mmmmm 😋 una delicia“

“Cool spot to hang out and enjoy the food trucks“

“todo delicioso 😋 y fresco y muy limpio“

“amo las tortas De esta lonchera 😍😍“

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

“Momo from this place is amazing!! All of my friends love it. Someone also said this momo is so good that they don't wanna share it with their dad. Someone said that they will cheat for this momo. And this momo made someone believe in god.

This is not a funny comment. Honestly the momo is out of this world!“

“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!“

“Came here for a baked potato and realized theres so much more to it than that! They had some delicious birria tacos and even birria ramen! The fish tacos were so delicious too. Im not usually one to divert from my usual agua de pepino but the drink with pineapple and i think it was spinach or something, i cant remember, but it was soo yummy too. The only thing that was really hard to figure out was parking. I spent like 30 minutes each time just going around the whole thing looking for parking. To be fair it was rush hour so there was a lot of traffic too.“

“Cool spot to hang out and enjoy the food trucks“

“The best Southern restaurant in Oakland it's so delicious my family loved it I'm originally from Louisiana and I had a hard time finding a good way to feed my soul. But thank God for Rodericks on 98th boulevard in Oakland. Our stomachs are saved. Thanks again for everything fam. Much love we'll be back.“

“It is welcoming and relaxed, making it a great spot to bring your family and friends, or enjoy a casual treat. The staff is kind and patient it is a family owned business and known for their churros around Richmond and San Pablo, It’s the kind of place where everyone feels at home while enjoying some traditional churros.“

“This place is fire. Everything I've tried has been bomb - shrimp super burrito, aquachiles, fish tacos, chicken tacos, carnitas tacos. The fish tacos are something special. The owner (I'm assuming) is also the nicest dude ever. Definitely come through this spot!“

“Genuine “Filipino” food that’s no where near “run of the mill “. Delicious Adobro really tender slow cooked pork that falls apart lightly covered in a special sweet sour sauce over rice with a fresh pickled veggy salad GF and vegan options not just after thoughts but real options. I’m coming back with friends“

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

“We went to eat here tonight for the first time and they definitely did not disappoint! We ordered various things tacos, quesadillas, and a pambazo and they were all delicious. The meat was tenders, flavorful, super reasonable prices, and not greasy at all. Everything tasted really good and we will definitely be back!“

“I would probably give Rasa Rasa 3.5 stars if that was an option. I’ve been there several times and they have a few good vegan options. The staff is very friendly, which is a nice extra. I liked the variety of ingredients in the gado gado, but it was a bit bland. The gado-rito was quite tasty and I would definitely order it again. However, it was disappointing that both dishes had very small amounts of tofu. Overall decent food and pleasant staff, but they need to bump up the protein in their vegan options.

“My new favorite place to study/chill. The music is the perfect background noise for studying, the coffee is great, the food is amazing and the atmosphere is just a breath of fresh air. In addition to this, not only is the food great but tastes fresh. It doesn’t taste like your traditional coffee shop food that’s been sitting around/frozen waiting for someone to come gamble with their health. Great place to get some studying or work done. Maybe even meet up and chat with a friend. Check them out!“

“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!“

“I really enjoyed my visit to Curry Up Now. The food was tasty and full of flavor. The menu has some unique dishes that mix traditional Indian spices with a fun twist. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. It’s a great place if you want good Indian food in a casual setting.“

“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.“

“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’m here to say that taco trucks are the royalty of tacos in the city. El ambre is no different. Their Birra tacos are not only tasty, they’re also priced extremely cheap. Everything about the tacos are fire. The cheese, toppings, dipping sauce and shells are far better than the competitions. One of the top tricks in the city, hands down.“

“Everything’s so freaking good! Been coming here for years!“

“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.“

“Delicious momos... One of the best part of our San Francisco visit was to try all the authentic tastes of flavorful Momos from Momolicious. My best would be Kathmandu Jhol Momo and Fiery Momo. And not to forget the kwati soup on a rainy day. We literally filled our tummy tasting all the items on the menu whole day. And we are glad we did it .So proud of you Anup Bajracharya!! And kudos to the team. It was seriously finger licking good. Friends if you happen to be in San Francisco Bay area give it a try for this Nepalese cuisine.“

“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...“

“the best butcher in san francisco! high quality meat, knowledgeable and incredibly friendly staff, and delicious sandwiches. Avedano’s is a cornerstone of the Bernal neighborhood and a great asset to the community. i can’t recommend them enough!“

“Great food on a great Sunday!“

“Felt like I was back in the motherland (Mexico). The dark, sketchy street just adds to the atmosphere. This place takes zelle if you don't have cash. The tacos are 3 bucks a pop, and they fill them fat. Best dang taco I've had in a while.“

“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.“

“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.“
