“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“

“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.“

“Colorful, delicious spot in the lower mission area! Would return in a heartbeat for Baja fish tacos, shrimp tacos, or Al pastor tacos Tijuana style (with guac and crispy cheese). Our group was lukewarm in the guacamole and the quesabirria tacos.“

“👍🌮🌮🌮🌮🌯🌯🌯🍛🍛🥘🥙🥗🍤🍤🍗🌮🌮🌮🌮🍺🍺🍳🌮🌯🌮“

“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.“

“El Rey has been the only Mexican restaurant we go to ever since their early days of opening, and we go almost on a weekly basis. The food is amazing - we've loved everything we've tried, but our favorites are the lamb quesabirria, al pastor tacos, arrachera tacos, carnitas quesadilla for the kiddo, and the house-made chips. Whenever Pepe (the owner) is in, he'll stop by our table to chat and tell us about where he's gotten inspiration for his latest dishes - whether it's one of his family recipes or a traditional soup from Guadalajara. He'll also often give us samples of dishes he's testing, every one of which we've really enjoyed. The ingredients are high quality, and the tacos are simple but so flavorful. You can tell this restaurant really is a passion project for him.“

“My family and I really enjoyed the quesabirrias and carne asada sopes.
The customer service seemed rushed but otherwise attentive.
The location is nice but there's poor accessible parking and this is a problem for tourists.
We would eat here again.“

“At first I felt it was pricy for the tacos....but once i tasted them.... well worth it...im from modesto and there is a taco truck in every corner... so im definitely gonna stop by every time I come to Oakland....On another note I also had a torta de carnitas and it was average price, delishious, and huge

Parking: Limited space inside but plenty of street parking“

“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...“

“Really good food! Very nice and kind workers. This was my 2nd time eating here. Both times I ate in my car.

If you like to drink alcohol, you can get a drink next door and order Mexican food here and stand at the bar to the left of where you order, and drink and eat.“

“Great place to order tacos or burritos. I've tried the tacos, burritos and tortas are huge. I've also tried all their meats and all are delicious. I even had them catered to 2 events for me and everyone enjoyed their food.

Vegetarian options: They do have some vegetarian options.

Parking: They use a gas station lot to park their truck but theirs plenty of parking spaces.“

“Tasty! The Asada was perfect and generous amounts“

“Good portion, reasonable price, delicious food and super friendly staffs. They don’t even ask for tips, but they bring the food to you and keep checking in to see if everything is okay. Small local business who are not greedy and accepts cards, and cares about their customers.“

“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.“

“Love this place, I live in the neighborhood and it's one of the best burritos outside of the Mission!
Burritos are great, service is great, everyone in the truck is so nice.
In fact, I think I'll get a burrito from Street Meet tonight!“

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

“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.“

“Cash only. Sweetest people ever! Got 6 tacos and they asked if we wanted them split on two plates. Also happy to give us extra limes when we asked. Only two little tables set up outside but right across from a cute park! Al pastor was my favorite but the pollo and carne asada were both delicious as well. Great value for SF!“

“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.“

“Edited my review down to a 4 stars because they don't offer early brunch on a weekend. We came at 9:40am today, Sunday, and they're closed. Why? I hope they'll reconsider their schedule because many customers like to eat earlier than 10am. Btw, we went to their competitors a few blocks down and it was full of people having breakfast.
Lovely new (for us) Mexican restaurant on university av. We stopped for Sunday brunch and food was excellent. Huevos rancheros, my husband's favorite, were perfect, fresh squeeze OJ, good lattes and wonderful cafe de olla. I had scrambled eggs (tacos a la Mexicana) without the tortilla, and plátanos fritos--so fantastic. Friendly service, and the ambience is top notch. We'll come back!“

“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.“

“Love this place. I used to get steak tacos or carnitas (with pineapple), but now I'm trying not to eat meat. They have 2 tacos you can mix and match. I get grilled veggies, nopales or fish and add beans for some extra protein. I have started going here every time I'm in the office. Deducted a star from atmosphere for the shady neighborhood, but they can't control that.

Vegetarian options: Nopales, grilled veggies, add beans.“

“We ordered 50, pre-wrapped breakfast tacos for our daughter's birthday and Early Bird DELIVERED! They were precisely on time, considered our special instructions to give more of a few varieties than others, and were very communicative and lovely throughout the whole experience. Our guests (including several 3-5 yr. olds) LOVED them! 10/10 would recommend.“

“Awesome experience and great food.“

“Always amazing! This place....I’ve been to about a dozen times, but this was the first time since this Covid-19 business. I walked up to the front door which faces the street, and ordered at the new ordering window, my mask donned. La Bamba remains delicious, Covid be damned. The Pupusas Revuelta was tender, juicy, handmade....perfect. Never gets old. The pickled cabbage, pickled to perfection. The salsa....a nice kick but not overbearing, not gonna overpower the pupusa, and provides a nice little bit of heat. I doubt I’ll ever get tired of this place.“

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

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

“Best tacos in town love pastor love the carne azada“

“The burritos here are some of the most flavorful and rich ones I’ve ever had. The carnitas are crispy and delicious. The shrimp burrito has just as much flavor but is a little lighter.One of the delicious things about this burrito is the inclusion of sour cream in the regular— the difference between regular and super burrito is just the size, not ingredients, so you can get all of the amazing flavor in a smaller size!The pricing is a little inconsistent— it would be good if they updated their menu so that it reflected their charges. There’s a dollar different here and there.“

“Chingonas las quesabirrias“

“todo está riquísimo y pronto vuelvo por una torta cubana se los recomiendo“

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

“The best taquitos ever 😋 thanks Mayra they were awesome 🤩“

“Thrifty prices for this food truck if you’re hungry and near Hegenberger. It’s a good find particularly since they offer a $8 veggie burrito ? tax is included so that’s a bonus. I had the chicken one and it’s ok.-the red sauce was better that average and fresh radishes, pickled carrot slices and quality jalapeños.The churros were fresh, temperature hot, 10”, and outstanding— nice servers plenty of parking ?️ I will revisit ? grateful they are there ☀️“

“I'll have to say that there's nothing special about this food truck, still good don't get me wrong but nothing stands out amongst the food items, the service quick but it was just me, no line and the location of the truck is to hidden with not enough signs to show. A bit pricey for the portion of meat on the burrito.

Parking: It's a small parking lot but since there aren't a lot of customers It's easy to get a parking spot and the food truck is right there inside the parking lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: Sufficient space for wheelchairs!“

“? 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!“

“Food like a homemade traditional kitchen the asada is amazing and fresh. Delicious food wonderful people. The website needs to update prices on the menu, the burrito grande is $12.59 now, but so worth it. Comes with avocado slices beans rice meat onions cilantro etc“
