Some places just get it right, every single time. Taqueria Extra is that spot for me. With multiple locations across the Bay Area, a popular food truck, and a full catering setup, this family-run taqueria has been my go-to for years.
I’ve personally trusted them to cater hundreds of weddings and events because I know exactly what I’m getting: ✅ Consistent flavors ✅ Always-fresh produce ✅ High-quality meats that put every other local place to shame
But it’s more than just the food. The owners are kind, grounded, and some of the hardest working people I’ve met in this industry. They care about their community, their customers, and the quality they put out.
Whether I’m planning an event or just grabbing takeout on a weekend (which I do… a lot), Taqueria Extra always delivers. If you want food that’s real, reliable, and ridiculously good, this is it!!!

I love the food here my only complaint is the atmosphere of the restaurant. i’ve been coming here for months and it’s always so hot in there like the a/c is broken or never turned on poor employees in the back. Working in hot weather without a/c is not okay.

The meat on both the chicken and beef lacked Mexican seasoning for us. But the restaurant and staff were great.

Our neighborhood's best Mexican restaurant. The tacos are generous with meat. I'm a fan of their quesadillas. There are so many choices that it might take you a while to read the menu across 3 monitors in tiny print.
Good food, service was super, clean place but prices were a lil high

It is a very spacious place, with a quiet atmosphere and its food is good, at least I liked it, and its prices are very affordable, I was here for 35 minutes, and a lot of people arrive and leave very quickly and happy...

Carne Asada tacos and their rice is really good. I didn’t really like their horchata but everything else is great. They also have a salsa bar 👍🏼

Great food but don't recommend catering. Ordered for 11am pick up. Food wasn't ready until 11:40. When i asked why it wasn't ready at 11 they said because there cooks just didn't start cooking it because they forgot. $200 dollars of catering shouldn't be "forgotten"

I have loved the quesabirria so much, to the point of it becoming a massive comfort food for me. However, I’m not certain whether there have been staffing changes or a new supplier for their tortillas, but the past handful of times I’ve ordered food, the birria has come back soggy, soft, and clearly cooked with less love. Please, fry them either longer or on a higher heat, I beg of you. You guys had it down for a while, especially the guys over in Walnut Creek, but even they have been suffering the same fate lately. In addition, last time I went, they forgot to put consome in the bag. Hugely disappointing. I’m not certain how many more times I can spend money, be disappointed, and still come back
