48 Best Taco Restaurants near Newark

“Seasoned curly fries is my son's favorite and mine too. taste very good!“

“This place is in an old strip mall shopping center. It used be a salvadorian restaurant before and they were ok. This place is much better. The food tastes pretty good . The burritos are huge and the tacos are regular sized tortillas( not street taco sized) and they were loaded with meat. Customer service was good. There's really not much seating her but it's OK I always take it to go. They have good salsas and sliced cucumbers. They also have pickled onions with habeneros (which are delicious) and slice pickled jalapeños. I think this will be my new go to spot for Mexican food.

Parking: Lots of parking here“

“Get the Diablo Chicken! You won’t regret it. Not too spicy but super savory!“

“Hole in the wall Mexican market with counter service Mexican food and fried chicken. Super clean, incredibly friendly, helpful staff, outdoor only seating with shade, fun regulars, and decent small parking lot. The store has a good selection of everything, and the menu is extensive, reasonably priced, and authentic with americanized favorites added.“

“Wonderful customer service. Friendly and fast. This charming nostalgic diner caters to classic American comfort foods.“

“Teleported. Now I’m in Mexico. She’s making a tortilla for me live. They are hot. They are fresh. That’s the kind of service that leapfrogs the tier and dollar sign that this place is. Ordered a carnitas burrito and a carnitas super plate. Both were amazing. Fed two adults and three kids. There is so much meat. I highly recommend this place as the best taco in the Menlo Park Palo Alto area.“

“Amazing food! I go here twice a week probably and they even remember my name now. It’s all really good so I switch it up. The buche is unusual so I like to get that and it’s very fresh . Very nice people and clean. My go to is 4 Asada tacos with a chile on the side. You won’t regret making this place a new favorite.“

“Husband craving a burrito but saw fish instead. Mojarra Frita. It was a fried tilapia with rice and beans, side salad and tortillas. It was large enough for us to share and make 5 tacos. The condiments at the bar made it even more flavorful along with chips and salsa. A nice lunch reminiscent of a recent Baja trip.“

“Food was SO good! Very authentic! Staff was friendly and kind! ❤️ will definitely come back if I’m in the area! 🥰“

“Acabo de pasar a la lonchera, la orizabeña Comparando a la ORIZABEÑA con la comida de mi ciudad, SÍ es más rica, y el personal amable. 👍“

“los mejores tacos y el mejor servicio siper recomendado.“

“excelencia en carnes todo muy ordenado“

“Best taco truck in Mountain View. I love their al pastor tacos and my wife loves their carne asada burrito. Delicious salsas go well on both, they have options to choose from on the outside of the truck.

Price is what you’d expect from a bay area taco truck.

There’s no seating and it’s obviously best while hot! But there’s plenty of parking so you can eat in your car!“

“Rico todo , buen servicio“

“As we had just had dinner the night before my son-in-law wanted to go again. We live six hours away in the mountains closer to Oregon. Once again we had the poke and the calamari and the fish platters one with regular fries and one with sweet potato fries both were delicious. The server was great even brought handy wipes for the platters. Obviously this server had been around for a while plus the non alcoholic and the alcoholic drinks came out at the same time which is something I appreciate. Most important best food, thanks“

“I freaking love these tacos, the cabeza is on point and the service is great.

Parking: Not really a parking lot since it’s at a gas station. Either park at a pump (and get some gas so you’re not an a**hole) or there are a couple of makeshift spots by the taco truck.“

“First Time Here 👍The Tostada Tinga Was On Point As well as the Over all Customer service & Menu . I will Definitely Be back when I touch Down in the Area again . My Over all Rating Five Stars 👍👍👍👍👍“

“I really REALLY recommend this place for family and friends the food is AMAZING ever since I tried the tacos I could not stop going here every day. The service is ok there in the middle for fast food because sometimes they have to many orders and they go really slow but over all it’s great . The atmosphere needs a little more decor kinda boring just seeing a table and you food.“

“It’s yummy The Sopes are really really good and mom keeps ordering the Enchiladas Verdes de pollo“

“We stumbled upon Mamacita Food Truck on our way to Trader Joe’s and decided to stop for a quick lunch. It was decent overall, but the flavors didn’t quite hit the mark. We tried the burrito, four tacos, and the shrimp taco—the shrimp taco was nice but still lacked a bit of flavor. That said, it’s a decent option for the price if you’re looking for a quick, affordable bite.“

“Probably the best carne asada taco I’ve had in my life, meat was cooked perfectly and complemented well with their green sauce. The al pastor was also good they make it fresh with their own trompo! Good prices and quick service. Good place to go for a quick lunch and have some takeout food for the office.“

“Highly recommended. A great place to have comfort food. I had the best quesadilla I've ever had! A very clean place. Family operated. Can speak English and accept phone payments. The to-go containers are recyclable. Clean tables with shade to eat next to the truck. conveniently located on University Avenue next to Shell gas station. If you happen to pass the station while going toward Dumbarton Bridge 84, I highly recommend stopping by. Even if you are not hungry take it home or to work. I guarantee you will like it and come back. Very nice and friendly staff. I'm planning to try their other foods and report.“

“The food is good. It's Salvadoranian style food. So instead of tortillas they give you sopes. It's like tortilla but in a thicker way hand made. I ordered the fried fish but they did not have salad dressing for the salad. I think they should buy thousand island at least ?
They do have a small bar and the clamatos look great. You may also dine outside, they have tables and chairs.“

“Great food! Sketchy back alley entrance but great service.“

“These tacos are super Yummy 😋 as a local I definitely recommend. The best tacos in the area🌮‼️‼️“

“This place is actually underrated! The burrito bowl is delicious and I've seen other dishes that looked tasty. Also I think google need to recreate the star rating because if the food is delicious but I didn't like how the bathroom didn't have hand soup. The restaurant doesn't deserve 1 star for that. I'm reading reviews for 1 &2 stars and I'm going that's not 1 or 2 star worthy. That's petty“

“The dude told me all about Taqueria El Grullense Restaurant, he said if you're looking for the best breakfast burrito in the world go to Taqueria El Grullense! The Chorizo is very good, but get the bacon and ask for extra bacon...It was Bombtasticly Taquerialishous! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“I love that they give you a little salad with your order (slices of cucumber and radish). Very good al pastor. I've tried one of the special tortas and it was pretty impressive. Lots of rare meats on the taco menu (lengua, oja, tripas, some I did not recognize) , though I haven't tried them.“

“My mother-n-law got us hooked to this spot it’s absolutely my favorite place to get burritos“

“Went for lunch. Very fast and yummy. Will be coming back for sure.“

“Food is delicious, lots a options to drink worth coming!!!❤❤❤“

“I have gone to this pizzeria for years and have always been pleased with my orders as well as the wings. Hand made and is flexible with orders. Store owners are very kind, 100% recommend.I've been going to this pizzeria for years and the pizza always comes out tasty. The food is handmade and they are flexible with orders. The owners are very friendly, I recommend 100%.“

“I got a super burrito with grilled chicken. Size of the burrito was big, ingredients aside from the meat were delicious. However, I ordered grilled chicken and the chicken had absolutely no char, the texture felt like it was boiled and didn’t have an marinade or seasoning on or inside of the chicken.“

“Lord have mercy. I had tacos de pollo (chicken) & asada (beef), it was so fire! their sauce is really good and the meats are very tender ?? I came here 3 years ago without knowing about it and forgot where the truck was located. saw it passing by one day had to make my way back. this is a must go for tacos ?“

“Just ordered three different types of taco and each was excellent: the meat perfectly seasoned and cooked exactly the way it should be. They grill the burritos so the tortilla is toasty. Really excellent taqueria. My one quibble is there is no standard burrito, just a super burrito, which you are welcome to ask them to leave stuff out of but it doesn't cost you any less that way. It's a small quibble, though; if that lets them cook the way they do, I'm okay with it!“

“I discovered this great gem of a bar during the final Hayward B street block party of the season! The owner was very friendly & the bar tender was amazing! She was working so hard because it was super busy. I ordered the Lemon Pepper Chicken wings & they were the best I'd ever had. YUM!! They took awhile to come but as I said they were super busy at the time, but they were well worth the wait. Come on down to Blue Crown Bar & Bistro!!“

“I've been going to The Mexican for years. The food was top notch with an awesome tequila bar. I went in last Saturday, Dec. 21st, 2024 at 5pm and it was empty. That in itself seemed strange. We got seated. No water. No Chips and Salsa. We received menus and that was why it was empty. You're paying for everything at 25% to 45% more than before with many meals and all Combinations GONE. To get a Taco, an Enchilada with Rice and Beans was $38... That's INSANE... We walked out and sadly will never return... He's the same reason Buffalo Bills was a ghost town at 430pm on a Saturday. Went there the day before and it's the same - prices 25% to 50% higher. Out of 3 popular beers. No milk. Menu changes for the worse. Miss Bill and the good food and great atmosphere that used to be since 1983. Another spot I'll never go back to...“

“We ordered this through DoorDash. Ordered a carnitas wet burrito and it was one of the best wet burritos I have had. My wife ordered 3 carne asada tacos and she loved them as well. If you in the area don’t pass this place up without stopping and grabbing some food“

“Ordered some wings (garlic soy) and plain with a couple of hot sauces, bulgogi fries, and the gangjung. I enjoyed most of the choices but found that the unsauced wings with dipping sauces were better than the others which were a bit too sweet. Chicken was nice and crunchy while not being too dry. The gangjung was solid. The bulgogi fries were straight fire though damn. We ordered eggs with our fries because eggs, and while they added to the fries, we wish they were runny eggs rather than fried to hard yolks, it definitely would be better as such.“

“By far thee best TACOS!!! I've tried Jack-In-The-Box tacos from other locations and they are not the same!!! The tacos are always fresh and crunchy!!! Would highly recommend!!! It doesn't matter what time you stop by for them, they're always delicious!!!“

“Excelente trabajo muy limpio y profesional“

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp available right in front.“
