50 Best Taco Restaurants near Los Gatos

“stopped to grab a little something and I immediately fell in love with the service. The lovely woman was super nice and the food was delicious the red salsa is so spicy but so delicious!!, she even throws in a little mint and a toothpick, and she speaks English and Spanish!! I’m coming here again.“

“This is a very cool place that opened up in the shopping center in our neighborhood. They mix great cocktails and a cool happy hour. I gave the food a 4/5 because I don't like a lot of salt on my food. But for many others, I'm sure it's fine. The folks with me enjoyed their tacos and said it was perfect.

The service was attentive and prompt. There is outside seating just in time for the summer. I would highly recommend giving it a try.“

“The epicenter of culinary excellence in Los Gatos.“

“Les recomiendo las tortas y las quesavirrias buen servicio y atencion“

“Tucked away in a little side parking lot is this wonderful and authentic Mexican food truck. We ordered the quesabirra tacos with a side of consome and the food came out fairly quick.

While the tacos were delicious, the texture was on the soggier side. This is was a little disappointing as the other times I’ve been here the tacos are nice and crunchy. The consome was not too salty and has a deep and rich flavor to it.

Overall this is a great little hole in the wall that is perfect for either a late night dinner or if you just crave some delicious food.“

“This is the real deal. The only Mexican spot in Silicon Valley that is actually authentic. The tacos and burritos here are fresh and delicious, and the flavors & salsas are as on-point as it gets.

I live in Los Angeles, and have been eating Mexican food everyday for decades. It’s always a pleasure doing business in San Jose, when this taco truck is open. Just go here if you haven’t already - you really won’t regret it.“

“16.50 Al pastor burrito, pretty decent food, reasonable prices considering everything around sjsu area is taxed, this place is tucked away in the back of a liquor store, kind of a hidden gem imp. Good food and the lady who works there is very kind, always friendly“

“Best tacos on the East side of San Jose. I’ve coming here for years since when they only had a carreta de tacos. They really upgraded over the years, now they offer aguas frescas in different flavors. The tacos are always delicious, my favorite son los de ojo y al pastor!“

“hela bomb. tacos have good flavor. they don't skimp out on the meat.“

“Chile Verde Burrito with the Red Salsa 🥰“

“Mike and Jacob helped us today going back this weekend to get my music in!!!“

“The caterer for my daughter's wedding canceled a week before the wedding. Latin-Asian-Fusion Kitchen came through with exactly what was needed. The help was sincere and the food was great. Everybody complimented the food and there was plenty. Roddy responded to us promptly and kept in touch throughout the week and event. Great experience!!“

“I have moved out of SJ and now live in Florida. Every now and then I think of Taco Bravo with fond memories of my favorite enchilada with my addition of verde sauce and black olives and I just crave it sooo much. I am so sorry for the loss of Dennis he was so integral to the business but seems that all are keeping it up so well and I look forward to the day I can come back to my favorite Mexican fast food stomping ground 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻♥️“

“I drive by here all the time and I always see a huge line and today I happen to catch them when they had a very short wait time. Impulsively I decided to stop and wait and I’m so happy I did. The food was great.. five stars out of five stars. I am impressed.“

“Quality food! Good people!“

“Very good place, the tacos were very well priced and the meat tasted like it was barbecued. They are smaller than the other places, but the flavor definitely makes up for it. Chili is very spicy, so don't put too much if you can't take it. Overall a good place to hit up when you want a qui k plate of tacos.“

“Had the best quesabirria of my life at Birrieria y Taqueria La Gran Señora.
The meat was insanely flavorful and juicy, the consommé was rich and packed with flavor, and the cheese pull was perfect. Every bite tasted fresh and made with care. Easily one of the best birria spots I’ve tried, definitely worth coming back for“

“These are the best tlacoyos and Hidalgo barbacoa I've ever tried. So if you want to try authentic Mexican food you need to make a stop at this place. As a Mexican this place takes me home in every bite, I lived in Mexico City and even there was hard to find a place with this flavor. The coconut water is delicious. Mr. Jose and his wife are very nice and hard working people. Everything in this place is exquisite!“

“Great tacos with handmade tortillas!
Their Al Pastor and Carnitas tacos are both excellent.

I love that they let you add your own onions and cilantro, and the salsa is delicious too.

It would be even better if they offered grilled onions on the side. Overall, great food, a nice atmosphere, and plenty of parking!“

“Chile Verde Burrito with the Red Salsa 🥰“

“There tacos were delicious I will be going back 😋“

“These were some of the best tacos I’ve ever had. I had just gone to Mexico City a month ago and these were right up there with my favorites there, at Tacos El Betin. The most-orders: cabeza, tripas, and buche. The proteins were perfectly cooked, crunchy on the outside, fatty on the inside. The green salsa was fantastic like other reviewers have mentioned.Be sure to get there earlier if you can because there’s a bit of a line. But don’t let it throw you off if there’s a line because they move quickly. There’s a table and some shade next to the truck as well. You can’t go wrong coming here.“

“If you want tacos go to Mr. Shrimp... if you want fresh seafood go to Mr.

They were so delicious big and made from scratch with good ingredients so soft and good flavor. I ordered the flan. It was delicious Just perfect. The staff was very respectful and very nice.“

“Stevie's Bar & Grill in San Jose isn't just a bar, it's a sanctuary for the soul and a paradise for beer enthusiasts. Each time I return to San Jose, Stevie's is my go-to spot, a reliable haven where the beer flows as freely as the good times. With a draft beer selection that's second to none, Stevie's is like a grand library of brews, each one a story waiting to be savored. The attentive staff elevates the experience, making sure your glass is never empty and your spirits are always high. The vibe here is electric yet welcoming, a perfect backdrop for the delectable snackable treats they serve. And if you're in a crunch for time, the adjacent laundromat turns a chore into a chance for relaxation – sip and savor while you spin and rinse! Stevie's is more than a bar; it's a clever twist on the traditional, a gem that makes San Jose shine a little brighter.“

“Auténtica comida taparía lo mejor de Jalisco“

“This place is great! I'm ?? and grew up with the authentic stuff cooked up by my folks, so I'm pretty picky about my fave Mexican food. That said, this place has pupusas and tortas that remind me of home, they're so good. The meat's well-seasoned, toppings are balanced well, and the prices are fair all around. I can easily see myself becoming a regular here.“

“This the second time I buy at this taco truck, the food is amazing anything u buy the flavor for the food is bomb!!!!!! And the amount of beef on the food is a lot u get satisfied ,I will coming back again this my new favorite place I give them more than 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Make sure to check their Instagram (@3brotherskitchen) to make sure when and where they're going to be. They were at a ghost kitchen on Ruff Drive at one of the food trucks further down the parking lot. We ordered the bo-rria tacos and the pork belly fries. The consomme that came with the tacos was fantastic. We also loved how unabashedly fatty the caramelized pork belly was. I want to go back for the banh mi and the rice bowls.“

“Birria has become very popular in San Jose and my friend Jose @CompaaJavii recommended me to try dish, the Birria Pizzadilla! It's from a food truck called Tarasco Taqueria in San Jose, CA @TarascoTaq_SJ. The meat it's made from is goat stewed in broth, the soup known as \\\"Consome\\\". For $20, you get eight huge, generous portions of tortillas filled with Birria, cheese, cilantro and onions. They give you lime on the side along with green and red salsa. Every bite is filled with cheese and tender meat. It's bursting in flavors with the different spices and chilli they used. They also have exotic Fanta Soda imported from Mexico at $10 a can. A little pricey but it was a good splurge to try. They also have traditional items as well to try. They are open every day from 11 A.M to 10 P.M located on the corner of Story Road and Adrian Way in San Jose. If you want the best bang for your bucks in Birria, check them out. @TarascoTaq_SJ“

“-Fast service.
-The food is really good, but just a little inconsistent. I ordered two identical carne asada burritos for my wife and myself, but only one had it's tortilla toasted. Bith were delicious, but toasted was definitely the winner.
-Location is smart, but there's no where to eat so I can't rate atmosphere too high.“

“The paisa taqueria is the best around my town best service best flavor center Rd and story and king road“

“Great tasting tacos, enchiladas, burritos - and excellent value. Pastor, carne asada, camarones, tripas-yes, yes, yes, yes! Good, fast, friendly service. Parking can be tricky at Chevron, so park at McD's. They're only open until 5pm, so get your taco fix early.“

“I love me some Mexican food. So when I was driving back to the airport, I wanted to try these for dinner. I ordered 5 Taco Chicos al Pastor, and they were pretty good. The only thing I noticed was that they were pretty dry. Nice place, lots of seating and very friendly staff. Would go again.“

“Would love to have given it a four-star for the food but it lacked portion size of refried beans and sour cream I ordered a Super Burrito didn't even taste the sour cream and that barely tasted the beans or the pico de gallo order delivery“

“You have to come out and give this Authentic mexican food from this truck here a try you can stay and eat while watching tv outdoors also there is a store right next door where you can get all your beverages from the lady cooking will have you hungry soon as you pull in with all the aromas coming from the food she is cooking you must try this truck“
