We just had El Taco Dorado cater my father's 75th birthday party of around 50 people- the tacos were excellent and the owners were very kind and accommodating- a great option for a party!

Pastor burrito was excellent. Maybe the best burrito in the region? Great flavors inside, and they crisp some cheese on the outside of the tortilla, which is highly delicious. Haven't seen that move before.

Fantastic tacos al pastor. Asked the owners what tortillas they use and they mentioned their corn, made in house! The quality of it showed. Will try to LA burrito next. Also, a true family owned truck. Had parents and siblings working the day I visited. Will come again

This truck redefines what street tacos should be. Great flavor, great atmosphere, the staff welcomes you with a big smile and the best part is they are VERY generous with the food. You leave full! If you’re from New Haven, Taco Dorado blows away any other taco truck on long wharf. Hand down!

If you’re looking for the best tacos in New Haven, look no further! This family-owned taco truck is an absolute gem. The flavors are authentic, the ingredients are fresh, and you can truly taste the love in every bite. The tacos al pastor are my personal favorite—perfectly seasoned and packed with flavor. The homemade salsas add just the right kick, and the portions are generous for the price.

Beyond the amazing food, the family that runs this truck is incredibly friendly and welcoming. They make you feel like a regular from the very first visit. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or craving late-night street food, this place never disappoints.

Highly recommend stopping by—you won’t regret it!

El Taco Dorado came out for a special community event we had this past weekend. We had NOTHING but AMAZING feedback from all who came and ordered their burritos, tacos, and quesadillas. Not only did they come out for a community event, but they even donated to our cause. We are so grateful that they came out and highly recommend for anyone looking for delicious food for their next event. Thank you El Taco Dorado!!!
