The food is amazing! I never had better mexican food. The mexibols were delicious and so were the chips.
Cali Craft Tacos catered my daughter's graduation party. The tacos were fantastic and everyone was very happy. Communication was professional and I would use them again anytime.
Ordered 3 tacos, just received 2
Let me say that San Diego can overwhelm you with taco spots to try, but this place is amongst one of the MUST TRY places. As a chef, I like dishes that make my tastebuds dance without the ingredients being too complex, they nailed it. I will say, the lobster taco is straight imitation lobster, it's a few bucks-not expensive, so I get it; If they could use real lobster with those flavors they put together, it would knock off half of the sweetness for the perfect balance, in my opinion. I'd pay more for it. I tried all the tacos except the pork tacos, just preference, and I didn't get a bad one, the only critique I would have is to have more of a crunch . Great food!
Cali Craft catered our birthday party for 60 people and they were incredible!! Not only was the food delicious - people kept coming up to us saying how flavorful and tender the meat was - but they were super responsive while we prepped for the event and were so accommodating with our horrible weather! It was super rainy and they brought an extra tent so guests wouldn't have to stand in the rain. Can't recommend them enough!
The team was on time and efficient. The food was great. We would use them again for sure! Super easy to work with.
We couldn’t be happier with the service, delicious food and quick, set up and clean up. The two young ladies were delightful and cook and serve a delicious array of tacos. We have used Cali Craft Tacos before for my daughters rehearsal dinner so we knew what we were in store for. I highly recommend them Rich.
Really good I would recommend this taco place!
Excellent job. We loved the food and May made everything so easy for our important event. Highly recommend.
One of the greatest and most communicate vendors we could have asked for to cater our wedding! Not only was everyone raving about the food, but May from Cali Craft Tacos helped us navigate sudden changes and new requests. I would recommend them to anyone!

Super responsive and great customer service. We just used Cali Craft to cater a party with about 45 guests and it was amazing. Professional staff and delicious food! Would definitely use them again.
I recently had the pleasure of hiring Cali Craft Tacos for our wedding, and my wife and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Our wedding had a Mexican theme, and we decided to go with street tacos as the main course. From the moment we contacted May and Eric at Cali Craft Tacos, they went above and beyond to ensure that our menu was perfect for our guests.
May, from Cali Craft Tacos, was incredibly helpful and patient in helping us choose the right combination of tacos for our special day. She understood our vision and worked closely with us to create a menu that would leave our guests satisfied. Eric's and May's close attention to detail and expertise in Mexican cuisine made us feel confident that our food would be a highlight of the event (spoiler alert..it was!).
Not only did May and Erik help us with the menu, but they also played a crucial role in calming our nerves before our big day. Their friendly and reassuring demeanor made us feel at ease, knowing that we were in good hands. May and Erik truly went above and beyond to make sure everything went flawlessly on our wedding day.
One of the standout dishes during the cocktail hour was the tostaditas de tinga. They were an absolute hit with our guests, and we received nothing but positive feedback!! The flavors were vibrant and authentic, and the presentation was visually appealing. It set the tone for a fantastic dining experience. The guacamole and salsas were fresh and homemade and our guests loved those sides too!!
For the main course, we decided to offer a variety of tacos from Cali Craft Tacos. We had chicken tacos for the kids and as a safe option for guests with any dietary restrictions (the chicken was still a delicious option by the way). The Baja-style fish tacos were incredibly delicious, with the fish cooked to perfection and topped with fresh toppings. The al pastor tacos were also a crowd favorite, with tender marinated pork and all the traditional fixings like pineapple of course. As for the presentation for the tacos, the tacos had the wedding-esq fancy appearance but that street taco vibe which we absolutely LOVED!!
May and Eric from Cali Craft Tacos went the extra mile by not only providing exceptional food but also helping with additional tasks during our event. They graciously offered to cut our cake, which was a wonderful gesture that allowed us to enjoy the moment without any worry. They even accommodated our request to stay for a few extra hours, ensuring that the celebration continued smoothly. We had around 175 guests and everyone was fed in a timely manner.
Overall, Cali Craft Tacos' catering service was outstanding. Their attention to detail, personal touch, and genuine care made our wedding day truly memorable. The street tacos were a huge hit, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the flavors. My now wife and I HIGHLY recommend Cali Craft Tacos for any event (especially a wedding) where you want delicious food and a team that truly cares about making your day special!! Thank you May and Eric!!
Def keeping you guys in our contacts for future events!

Great job catering my wedding of 60. Set-up looked nice and chefs were professional and friendly. Tacos and fixings were yummy, loved the pineapple agua fresca. I would definitely hire this company again.
