The tacos are good, the portion is excellent. The horchata was delicious and refreshing. They have a lot of salsas but I don’t think they need that many. One was so spicy that I couldn’t enjoy my taco, it didn’t taste like much, just spicy. I have a high heat tolerance but it was too much. The wait time was over an hour in line and another hour to receive my food. Not sure if it’s a one time situation but it didn’t make for a great experience. Tacos taste good though.

The food was flavorful and it is a big portion. I had a taco yaqui with a cevada water. The taco yaqui has half of chile stuff with cheese and choice of meat and toppings on a flour tortilla. My child had a taco and a maracuya with mango water. The place was full and there was a line but it moved fast. I gave it a 3 start because they only take cash no card. It looks clean although it is a “taco truck” and you sit outside. The parking space is kind of limited. I didn’t see bathrooms so I’m not sure if there are any portables.

I finally made it to their new official location!!
The little corner is full of life, like a small Mexican food court. You find Tacos Mama Cuca on the back, there are covered tables and chairs to seat to eat, a wonderful table with veggies and salsas to dress up your tacos, and a man grilling corn cobs and small onions
The menu is varied and the meat options delicious and generous!
I had the famous taco Yaqui and a regular al pastor taco in flour tortilla. The meat on both was tender, perfectly seasoned and flavorful!!
Do yourself a favor and pay them a visit, and don’t forget to tip your taquer@s! Show some love for affordable prices and amazing food

I loved them. Extremely Friendly Owner and Staff. Just a bit pricey for the size of each taco (the only reason for 4 stars) . I will definitely come back.

No bathrooms on site- it’s a food truck!
Ordered the Al pastor and carne asada tacos, and Taco Yaqui asada.
You gotta head to the salsa bar under the tent and dress up the tacos. Love the mango salsa and the pickled red onion.
Really solid tacos, but I don’t think I’ll make a trip out here just for these.

Wow -best tacos around. Thin hand made flour tortillas. The best salsa & fixings table around. You won’t be able to go anywhere else after you try this. Since they moved to Emeryville, the salsa table isn’t self serve anymore, but you can still pick however many toppings you want. They have a toppings chart and you just tell them which numbers you want.
They have changed location from 9000 International blvd to 5909 Market Street in NOBE.
The people complaining about the prices- they don’t factor in all the toppings that are available with any purchase. And that IS what’s so great about mama cuca’s- it’s their choice of toppings and their flour tortillas. Please don’t order anything without any toppings!
I have never been to a taco spot with this many wonderful topping choices. I normally don’t even like tortillas and I have to say it’s because other people don’t make them thin and chewy like mama cuca does!

The best Northern Mexico-style Mexican food. Authentic Mexican food; don’t let the price fool you. It is recommended because you can add your own continental [ salsa with pineapple/ guacamole, cucumber, red onios, repollo, etc.].

While the location may not be ideal, the food is truly exceptional! The delicious smoky flavor of the wood-grilled beef, combined with the excellent salsa bar, makes this a must-visit for fans of Sonoran-style tacos.
The fact that we encountered another couple who had traveled all the way from Brentwood speaks volumes about the quality of this place.

Yep, best tacos I’ve had in my life.
Also the bacon-wrapped special burrito was delicious. The description says refried beans but I got mine with just beef and Anaheim peppers. Idk if it was intentional or not, but man it was tasty
