Taco Restaurants near San Carlos

“I live at the top of the road and I passed this for a year. I thought it was there because we have had a ton of construction on the road. Thought I’d give it a try… oh sweet baby Jesus I’m glad I did. The tortillas are made from SCRATCH!!!!! The meat is not grease the flavor is a chefs kiss amazing. Tacos are $3 a piece, that’s all I’ve tried but the my dying to try more. They have burritos and tortas. Def give this truck a taste you won’t be disappointed.

Parking: It’s a dirt lot“

“For me I've only been to this location late at night maybe 9pm -4am and my food comes out fresh the employees are nice. I dont have any complaints i think this is the best jack in the box compared to others. And they let you customize anything. I appreciate the night crew because they make the food perfect.“

“Great tacos al pastor in town 👍🏻😋“

“We got takeout for dinner tonight. Very happy with this authentic taqueria! This will be our go to Mexican restaurant from now on.
Ordered 3 burritos and 2 taco plates. Amazing food! Fantastic service. Chicken was flavorful and generous. Rice was authentic (not over salted) and burritos were a delicious combination of ingredients. They offered napkins, salsa and utensils. Thank you S El Camino Taqueria! Will see you again in the coming weeks.“

“This place is awesome. The tacos are much larger than your regular $2-3 street tacos—definitely worth the current price of $4. The meats are well-cooked and flavorful. The Vampiros are definitely worth trying. Love the salsa bar and grilled onions. This place is better than most of the street food I’ve had in Mexico. Will definitely be back!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Absolutely delicious food. Daniel knows how to make the most flavorful, juicy, and authentic tacos I've had. It's a food truck parked on Woodside Road next to the Safeway parking lot. The Crispy Barbacoa tacos are to die for. They're served with fresh salsas and consome to dip your tacos into. Support this restaurant and enjoy.“

“Absolutely loved the food. Wanted to have a snack but ended up having a full meal by repeatedly ordering tacos. Great veggie taco, haven’t had such a good taco anywhere else in California. The only thing I’m sad about is not being able to find this food truck last 2 3 times I’ve tried looking for it.

Vegetarian options: The veggie taco is absolutely amazing.“

“Taco food truck.
They were friendly in their treatment and explained our questions about the menu. It is very economical and the price quantity is great!
We made a combo of tacos and a churro. Both the al pastor tacos and the chicken ones... they are all delicious.
The only bad thing is that there is nowhere nearby to take them, although they have a couple of chairs to wait for your order.
I recommend it!

Parking: There is something super in front and people park to order and pick up.“

“A burrito on the level of gourmet, made-to-order with protein of choice, griddled brown. The al pastor, unique in its seasoning — a bit Middle Eastern in spice, harking to its origins.

Serving construction workers and truck drivers alike, this roadside taco truck clearly gets something right.

Just a few hundred feet from the 101-S Seaport Blvd exit, perfect for a quick pit stop while commuting.“

“Is a nice looking a little street food cart. Plenty of parking. Food is great, I have to wait a while but at the end is worth, everything is made while you ordered, so I have to wait a little bit more. Ceviche tostada it was perfect, huarache it was very good made with fresh dough, not frozen and oily. They also serve tacos with homemade tortilla, burritos and quesabirrias. If you looking for real fresh street mexican food, I highly recommend this place. Price is in range.“

“Wonderful Brazilian parmigiana. Sabor brasileiro autêntico!“

“Do you love going to Flavortown? How about dreaming with your eyes open? Then try these birria tacos. The first time I had it was from leftovers that my daughter brought home for lunch. Then I drove from Oakley to San Mateo to have them fresh. It was AMAZING! They provide extra stuff to add to the tacos, but it honestly didn’t need them. The meat was so tender & flavorful that I had to close my eyes so I could fully appreciate the taste. Then I added the extras one by one & it tasted like a new taco each time. I know it seems like I’m exaggerating, but it’s really that good! My only wish is that they had seating nearby & a second location closer to Oakley.“

“Came for the camarones a la diabla (“Devil’s Shrimp”), which they don’t have on the menu but are happy to make it for you. I actually enjoy theirs more than El Farolito! Also HIGHLY recommend their pastor tacos. Their salsa is top-notch, which I am very picky about. So lucky I live two minutes away!

Parking: Park behind if you can’t find on street.“

“Was driving by and saw this truck. Never tried it before and never heard of it! The cashier at the truck didn't speak any English and was talking to me in Spanish. I simply showed her 2 of my fingers and said, " 2 cabeza y 2 al pastor". I'll give it a try why not!10 minutes later,a plate of hot tacos came out. I paid 2 dollars per taco for a total of 8 dollars. Sat on thr bench and gobbled those delicious tacos down!Cabeza was not too dry and had right amount of aromatic flavor. Al pastor was a little bit spicy. Lots of construction workers were coming as I left. I think I will be back!“

“I recommend Tacos Y MARISCOS El GORDO because of their yummy delicious SHRIMP tacos are my favorite plus I’ve had their Quesadilla and Mexican style shrimp cocktail… I like the fact that their children whom are teenagers work part time whom are polite and friendly like their parents“

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

“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.“

“Can't give enough stars.
Tried to phone in an order to save time because my puppy was in the car. They said
You can bring him in.
He's not house trained yet.
It's ok, bring him in. Is he cute?
He is.
Wow, above and beyond customer service.
I sat outside at a table with Waffles, they brought him multiple bowls of water.
I interacted with 4 or 5 staff one nicer than the next, all happy the puppy was there.
In my long life I have never felt so welcomed in a restaurant.
The barbecue and sides, ALL proper.
Some nice fatty brisket, and ribs that we're great unsauced. And a variety of tasty sauces. Pickled things were perfect.
I'm a large person and their 2 meat plate is much more than I should eat, but I finished everything.
I live nowhere near Redwood City but I'm going there again.
Thanks to all of you.“

“los mejores tacos los recomiendo🤤“

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

“Rico todo , buen servicio“

“Was greeted & seated promptly. Welcomed by Manager Hung. Brittany was our waitress & we received the 20th Anniversary Sacks. Happy Anniversary.“

“Not fancy just great Mexican food done right I go from San Jose just to eat here. The best and I mean best tripa and lengua tacos in the bay. Get extra green sauce and a little red to go. And carrots and lemon. Squeeze the lemon. Hit the salsa and enjoy“

“Love the chicken pupusa! It’s my favorite food truck in Redwood City“

“The restaurant is not big. Theirs no tables, only a countertop to eat standing up. But that's perfect when you're on the go or don't mind eating in your car. The menu is pretty basic, but the food is on point and full of flavor. If you like a little kick with your food, I suggest you add the red sauce, but the mild green sauce is just as good. Don't go too late because they do run out. Stop by and try my usual order. 2 sopes and 3 tacos with both the red and green sauce.“

“I really love California Fish Grill in Cypress for dinner forever!! ☺️☺️🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞💞💓💓💓💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗🍽“

“They are actually open after the listed closing time but they move the truck and park near the Safeway at Delaware and Peninsula instead. They're usually there from like 6PM to 9PM I thinkThe menu only lists res, chivo, and pollo as options but they also do all the other regular taqueria meats as wellGreat food, the super burritos and super quesadillas are unbelievably gigantic 5/5“

“Great job on the hand made tortilla“

“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 ☆☆☆☆☆“

“The best tasting Mexican food ever! I always order their Cabeza De Res burrito. Very few Mexican food trucks sell cows head. But this taco truck introduced me to this very flavorful dish. Please don’t hesitate to give tips, they always makes me feel so happy with their “piping hot foods” and free crispy warm nachos.“

“(Translated by Google) good prices is not so expensive everything is very healthy I recommend it to people who take great care of their food. ?(Original)buenos precios no es tan caro todo es muy sano se lo recomiendo a la gente que cuida mucho su alimentación. ?“

“Food was absolutely delicious! We got fish tacos, chicken sope and churros. All highly recommend!! I would give it a 4.5 star rating just because it took at least 20min for the food to come out (it was 5pm- we were the only ones there). If you know what you want I would suggest calling your order in. Reasonably priced as well.“
