    Does anyone know of a good taco truck to cater an event?

    I had great catered food from El Paisa Taqueria.  They didn't have a truck, but set up a whole serving station at a picnic table.

    Regular location is 2900 International Blvd.  Owner is Abel Lopez.  510-384-5465.  He was there with an assistant, serving the food, and did a great job.  Nice guy.  Give him a call.

    We used Latin Asian Fusion Kitchen to cater our daughter's grad party last year, and they were great!  Super responsive/communicative, and the food was amazing.  Chef Arturo was incredibly enthusiastic and fun to work with!  They have a taco truck that we couldn't use due to the layout of our driveway, but they set up in our yard with a tent and it was perfect. https://latin-asian-fusion.com

    Hi Amazing Families. Can you recommend a Taco Truck for catering? I searched older post and most are very old. Anyone have recent experience?

    Thanks Anna

    Hello,

    I have used La Catrina few times. They are great. I'm not sure about bringing the truck itself or setting up in a patio area... either way, people love it, it is fun and cheap.

    Just Google it, it is in Oakland.

    We used Tacos Brothers Garcia for a party and loved them!! Professional and great communication...I'm actually looking for an excuse to use them again!

Taco truck or similar for rehearsal dinner

Sept 2011

I am looking for a taco truck or an affordable catering service to provide an assortment of tacos for a rehearsal dinner in Berkeley. Any recommendations? anon


Try El Taco Bike! I know he does catering and such, all on his bike. www.eltacobike.com Yea tacos!


We had our wedding rehearsal dinner catered by Picante (restaurant in Berkeley), and they did a wonderful job. We kept the cost manageable by providing (through Mi Pueblo) our own queso fresco, salsas, and other taco 'accessories.' We also provided our own plates, napkins, cups, etc. We did splurge a little and have someone on site making the tortillas fresh, and it was 100% worth it. Good luck! loves tacos


We have used La Pinata (510-540-7773 www.lapinata.com) before and loved it. They set up a cooking station and bring everything there. They make each taco & burrito to order. Good luck! Kendra


Sinaloa makes fantastic tacos and their rates are posted right on the side of their truck at International and 22nd Avenue in Oakland! Lisa R


Oh gee! Now you have me thinking of my favorite taco truck which btw does cater. It's the Sinaloa truck on the corner of International blvd and 22nd Ave. There are two related trucks on this same corner, but one does seafood as well. Yum! Good luck! Bill

Taco truck for a party

Feb 2011

Hello, We're having a big mexican fiesta and are going over the top in the 'cheesy' factor. We'd love to hire a local Oakland taco truck to park in front of the house for a few hours to feed our guests. Does anyone have any experience with this or recommendations? Many thanks!! Susan


My husband went to a party with a taco truck a year ago and loved the food so much he kept their business card. The company is El Ojo de Agua, 10401 International Blvd, Oakland, phone: 510/978-2698. Jenny


We have hired Abel Lopez twice for parties, after attending another that he catered. Great guy, great food, wonderful experience! Abel Lopez, El Paisa Taco Truck, 2900 International Blvd., Oakland. (510) 384-5465. Debbie
