Super friendly service, even offered a free sample when I asked about the different meats. And absolutely phenomenal tacos. The kind of tacos that make your mouth water. I tried Al Pastor, Chicharon, and Barbacoa and then came back for another because it was so good.

The king of taco trucks. The tsar of tacos. The sultan of salsa. This unassuming taco truck parked behind a gas station offers the absolute best tacos I have eaten in the San Jose area – and I have eaten many tacos. Taco trucks are of a high standard around here but this one is special. Try the Califas taco, which has a layer of melted cheese between the two corn tortillas that make up the taco. Not only does it guarantee delicious cheese in every bite, its elastic nature helps to hold the taco together and keep it from breaking. As for fillings, the chicharron is particularly good – spicy enough to get the full flavors, but not so spicy that you can’t taste anything else. The atmosphere? None! It’s a gas station parking lot! But you’ll be in such a taco trance you won’t care. Warmly recommended.

Definitely get the chicharrón taco and the Californiana quesadilla, so good! Love that it comes with some jicama on the side. They produce their own horchata in their own bottle!

Ever since moving here from San Jose, I’d admittedly been disappointed with the city’s showing for tacos… until now! The meats were very juicy. This is probably one of the few places where I preferred the carne asada over the al pastor (not that the latter was bad, just preference). The location is very convenient too, making it the perfect place to grab a quick lunch or a snack

I wanted to try out the best rated tacos in the area, and Califas was nearby. I stopped by soon after they first open and got myself and some friends $100 worth of food to try out different meets and specialty items. Meat was perfectly seasoned, and everyone walked away happy. I’m definitely choosing Califas anytime I’m in the area. Food is just straight fire.

I really wanted to like this place, but my experience was certainly not like the 5 star experience that other reviewers before me have had. First of all, tacos are supposed to be an affordable street food. Here they cost between $4 – $5 including tax per taco. Second, if you’re getting the bog-standard 2 corn tortilla with a tiny portion of meat, cilantro, and onions for $4 – $5 per taco, that’s a rip-off in my book. $15 for 3 tacos from a food truck better have large portions with additional toppings, and no haggling for salsa. That’s what 99% of all other taco trucks in the area offer. Third, no prices listed at all for anything, what’s with that?? Fourth, if you are going to add a $1 surcharge for using a credit card for payment, not only should it be stated clearly on the truck but also they should inform you while paying. Lastly, if the sign with the surcharge information states “Beginning Sep. 2022, we’ll add a $1 surcharge” what’s with charging that amount now? Neither the tacos nor the experience is worth it, and there are plenty of other taco trucks that offer better value for money, not to mention better choice, and taste.

I was pretty disappointed in trying the Carne Asada and Chicken tacos. Both the chicken and steak were greasy enough that the tortillas were soggy. I think I will wait on Mexican food for Southern California or Arizona.
