50 Best Food Trucks in Oakland

“Me recuerda el sabor de mi México. Super recomendado los tacos y tortas de pastor y asada 👌“

“Im suprised I hadnt done a review of this place. For the past few years. From the moment I learned of this delicious food. I have been coming here and bring any visitors I have to this location and anytime. I have traveled no matter how far I've moved away to have their delicious food. I am an avid supporter and recommend anyone who wants to try birria tacos to find any place better in the bay. Hands down Nutting you order from their locations is gold. The flavors, the authenticity. Check this hidden gem out. Leo and the team are amazing people who always find a way to give back. Best Birra truck I've ever tasted!“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 food on a great Sunday!“

“If you’re in the mood for birria, look no further. This spot has such tender and flavorful birria that it may or may not make you forget all past birrias you’ve tried.

Victor is the chef and owner behind La Santa Torta and he has an obvious love for what he does, which honestly makes the food taste better. He made our tacos super quickly too.

If you like spicy, ask for the red sauce!

Their brick and mortar location has closed, but you can find them on 1025 3rd st in Oakland.“

“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!“

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

“amo las tortas De esta lonchera 😍😍“

“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.“

“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...“

“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!“

“Turo Taco was a big hit at our National Night Out event! Everyone was delighted by how delicious the food was. The quality ingredients, flavorful spices, and excellent service truly stood out. My neighbors are still talking about how great everything tasted. I highly recommend Turo’s Truck and their exceptional service to everyone!“

“There are a lottt of taco trucks in the Fruitvale area, and I have to say this is one of the best ones. Affordable, delicious, customer service on point.
I mean come on, you get chips, and pickled jalapeños with your order. Hands down.“

“Delicious, high quality food 🌯🥪🍳and very welcoming people 😊“

“Great BBQ and catfish! Best in the Bay Area. The staff are super friendly and the portions are big.

They have plenty of TVs to watch whatever sports you are into.

They do not serve beer or alcohol here.

Parking can be a pain when they are busy.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to get in the restaurant.“

“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.“

“todos lo k decime ahí es delicioso“

“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.“

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

“Great pizza, reminds me of pizza from New York! ����“

“Quaint and delicious ?. I have now become a regular customer and eat here 2-3x per week. I love it. they know my order before I can even ask!????. Keep up the fantastic work guys. The community appreciates you all. My family loves the consistent quality of the fresh food you provide everyday.?“

“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.“

“A Flavorful Journey to Zacatecas: A True Taste of Authentic Mexican Cuisine Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cecilia's Zacatecas Mexican Restaurant, and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience. As soon as I walked through the door, I was captivated by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The aroma of freshly prepared spices filled the air, instantly transporting me to the heart of Mexico. Cecilia's dedication to preserving the authentic flavors of Zacatecas cuisine shines through in every dish. The menu is a treasure trove of traditional delights, showcasing her expertise in crafting delectable recipes. The Birria, a slow-cooked stew bursting with rich flavors, was an absolute standout. Each spoonful was a heavenly blend of tender meat, aromatic spices, and a hint of smokiness. It was a true testament to the care and passion that goes into Cecilia's cooking. Another must-try at this restaurant is the Zacatecas-style Gorditas. These handheld delights are made with love and expertise, with a perfectly fluffy masa exterior encasing a variety of mouthwatering fillings. Whether you opt for savory meats or flavorful vegetarian options, each bite is a symphony of textures and tastes that will leave you craving more. To complement the meal, Cecilia offers traditional Mexican beverages that are as refreshing as they are authentic. The Café de la Olla is a fragrant and invigorating cup of coffee brewed with cinnamon and piloncillo, giving it a unique twist. And the Agua de Horchata, a rice and cinnamon-based drink, provides a soothing and creamy accompaniment to the vibrant flavors of the food. It's clear that Cecilia's passion for cooking stems from her upbringing and the invaluable knowledge passed down to her by her mother. Her dedication to preserving the culinary traditions of Zacatecas is evident in every plate she serves. Not only does she deliver exceptional food, but her warmth and welcoming nature also create an inviting ambiance that makes dining at her restaurant a truly memorable experience. In addition to her culinary prowess, Cecilia's persistence as a Latina business owner deserves applause. It is inspiring to see her success and how she has brought a taste of Zacatecas to our community. Supporting local businesses like Cecilia's is a way to celebrate culture and diversity while enjoying incredible food.“

“Best taco truck I have found, their street tacos are awesome!!“

“Love the fresh and delicious food they serve always. Very friendly“

“The food is hot and flavorful. My food didn't take that long to be made. I was a little uncomfortable with so many homeless men just hanging out. They all just stood around and were sitting at most of their outside tables but after I ordered I just stayed in my car, no biggie.“

“Son las mejores pupusas del area! Las chicas siempre muy amables 💓💓 los platanitos siempre están riquísimos , suaves y dulces!“

“Ive been to the food truck & the storefront. The food consistency is the same at both! The meats are flavorful and they have a nice menu selection. Definitely recommend the steak & shrimp fries & also the cheesesteak egg rolls. The steak hoagie is also good (taste similar to the egg roll so cant go wrong).“

“We encountered this Indian fusion food truck at Almanac Brewery in Alameda. We were immediately excited by the extremely creative menu with so many options. There are many vegetarian options as well as meat. We ordered the paneer tacos and got the tikka masala sauce on the side and it was so fresh and flavorful! The quantity (3 tacos) was very worth the cost. We are looking forward to going back and trying all the unique dishes on their menu. The service was also great, the person taking our order was helpful and efficient. Definitely check them out!“

“todo las tortas los tacos burritos #1“

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

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

“Shout out to Kenny and his crew! Community focused, amazing food, and creates such a fun atmosphere! Thank you for supporting the Claremont Middle School Awards celebration!“

“Been loving it since they opened! Everything there is awesome! Super burrito al pastor is my fave in town!“

“Amazing! Simply the best taco truck the whole bay area. I don’t go anywhere else. Best food for my buck!“

“I moved here a handful of months ago and so far I've gotten the tacos, quesadilla, and the super burrito. In my opinion, the burrito is where it's at 🤌🏽 i see the other reviews saying they fell off but I see this place as a burrito truck vs a taco truck.“

“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 ☀️“
