The food is amazingly good. The salsa bar has more then just salsa. Cabbage in jalapeño juice, roasted jalapeños,fresh cut onions in vinegar with salt and pepper,spicy carrots and two different types of chili. We went for breakfast burritos and they were so good and fat too.

This place has the best burritos! They are so good and the salsa bar is a meal in itself!! I highly recommend. It is not fancy, but they still treat you like a king. 10 of 10 would recommend.

This used to be my ALL TIME FAVORITE Taqueria. USED TO BE being the key point of that last sentence. I asked the young man who took my order for a “Burnt” quesadilla, and then went on to explain that I really mean burnt. Not “Extra Crispy” bc there isn’t a Taqueria Cook that takes that for what it says. I used the examples of “like a burnt marshmallow” and “I want it the color of Dark Chocolate”. He seemed to totally get it and said he would make sure it was to my liking. Although I made the order to go, I asked for some chips so I could have some of their cabbage salsa, that I always loved so much, and Modelo to wash it down with. I asked if it was a problem for me to sit on the front patio and if I would be able to hear my number called. He said sitting outside was fine and that he would bring my quesadilla to me. So I busied myself with snapchat and laughing at the crazy line of cars for the drive thru at the Popeyes next door, when I realized it had been over 20 minutes since I placed my order and clearly I needed to go get it. I should have opened the Styrofoam container prior to even leaving, but like I said, the young man seemed to truly understand my order. I got a mile down the road before I opened the container to find a lightly toasted quesadilla resembling a normally cooked item, not a burnt one. I then called the Taqueria and the young man said, “oh yeah, I watched him cook it! It was really burnt wasn’t it??” Speechless was what I should have been, but I spoke and should probably call and apologize tomorrow. To top it all off, the bottom tortilla was completely inedible due to how soggy it was. Others may be OK with that consistency, I am not. Hence the “Burnt” request. And that bottom, soggy tortilla was where all the cheese and meat was. The one true meal i had all day, and i would have been better off starving and saving my $10. There is only 1 place I know that will actually make my food to order (taco truck Empire), I should have just gone there. Today’s Taqueria San Jose experience will undoubtedly be my last.

Ordered a chorizo breakfast burrito, the foil paper was full of fried beans, the chorizo was amazingly salty. I asked the cashier for a bag and he was kind of rude.

I ordered an adobada burrito and honestly, the meat was disappointing I could see char on the meat and there was no flavor. My friend got carne asada tacos and had no real complaints. I’ll likely give them one more try. The staff was friendly. Wait time altogether was about 10 minutes prior to noon on a weekday.

Not sure why my experience didn’t show up but my complaint was with my favorite carnitas torts that I always order. This time it was so greasy that I couldn’t even eat it. Paper it had around it was soaked with grease. Very disappointing!!. That’s the reason for only 1 star.

I go to San Jose Taqueria for lunch at least once a week, I get the grilled chicken tostada, with everything. It’s always delicious and always fast and kind service. And a great price ala carte. I love it! (Great salsa bar too)!

Great customer service, the portion sizes are wonderful and the food quality is top notch. I have eaten here a few 100 times since 1997 and in those 26 years I have never had a bad meal. Best nachos I have ever had, I tell everyone!
