We were introduced to Buddha Boy Tacos through a friend who had them cater their wedding, and we're so glad we took the recommendation. From the start, we were impressed by their menu, especially the variety of vegetarian and vegan taco fillings. Buddha Boy delivered premium service every step of the way. They were responsive, professional, and communicative, always quick to reply or thoughtful enough to let us know when they'd follow up soon. On the day of the wedding, they were efficient, warm, and completely reliable. They set up two lines for faster service, treated our guests with such kindness, and helped create a joyful, welcoming atmosphere. They coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors and ensured everyone was well-fed and on schedule. The food itself was a massive hit-guests raved to us, unprompted, that it was the best meal they'd ever had at a wedding. From appetizers to entrees and desserts, everything was delicious. We can't wait to have them cater another event and enjoy their food all over again! read more

Excellent tacos! Had these at Scholb brewery. Two were plenty for me. I think the carnitas was slightly better than the carne asada. Love the fresh made tortillas and delicious meat. The salsas are pretty spicy and the limes were juicy. Highly recommend. I would definitely order these again. Keep up the delicious work! read more

I found Buddha Boy Tacos from Reddit, and I could not have been more pleased with their service. We had a welcome event for our wedding the following day, and they were so helpful when designing the menu for us, communicating updates, and setting up the event. The homemade tortillas were really what sold me on going with Buddha Boy, and the food was such a hit for all of our guests. *Everyone* came up to me and raved about how good the food was, and I certainly agreed. Very highly recommend them to anyone who is in need of a delicious and reliable service for their next event! read more

So good and flavorful! Don't know how they make the rice in the burritos but my husband is still talking about it. Ordered the chicken quesadilla and the pork burrito. Both super meaty and tender. No bland, dry meat here. Tortillas were excellent too. Super fresh and chewy. Everyone was nice and I have absolutely no regrets. It's really good and I'll order again next time they're around Smog City or whatever brewery they pop up next! read more

Buddha Boy Tacos was our 2024 wedding caterer, and also our bartending and dessert service - yes, they are a triple threat!! And they completely blew us away! We heard about their catering service from a friend and tried their tacos at a local pop up. Immediately after meeting Alexis and Marcus--and trying the food--we knew we wanted them on our special day. They had the best energy and took a genuine interest in us and our vision for the wedding. From that point on, they worked closely with us to create a personalized menu that suited us and our guests. Alexis was so good at making the planning process as painless as possible by making recommendations, pitching ideas, and meeting us multiple times at the event site. We got to try our apps, main course, and even cocktail options prior to our event. Their presentation on our wedding day was just beautiful, the food was delicious, and our guests are still raving about the churros! The bartending service was equally impressive. The bartenders were fun, efficient, and crafted some of the best cocktails we've ever had at a wedding (we might be biased). It is clear that Buddha Boy Tacos takes great pride in their work and goes above and beyond to exceed expectations. We could not have asked for a better experience and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch catering for their event. Support this local South Bay small business and you will NOT regret it! THANK YOU, Alexis, Marcus, and the rest of the team, for making our wedding day unforgettable! :) read more

Buddha Boy Tacos was the food offering at Smog City in Torrance on Sunday, February 23 2025. 1) Menu mentioned extra charges depending on food choices but these upcharges are not on the menu itself. Zero transparency. 2) Was told no orders were being taken due to trying to fulfill backed up orders, which is fine and fair. Was asked to come back to order in 20 minutes to allow them to catch up. After only 10 minutes had passed, they started to take orders from others. By the time I placed my order I was later in the already large queue than I should have been. I explained I had waited per their instructions and expressed how unfair it was to take orders before mine but was offered no recourse. 3) Although I was warned the food would take a long time to come out, I'm not sure anything could've prepared me for waiting over an hour for two tacos and a mulita. 4) The patrons sitting next to us were told after an hour of waiting that they ran out of chicken and to choose something else. No, they were not informed when ordering an hour prior. I guess I was lucky to get what I ordered and I can't imagine how I would feel if I waited so long for food I didn't choose to purchase. read more

I LOVE Buddha Boy Tacos! Not sure what my favorite thing to order is because I love it all. I usually stick to one thing once I find something I love but I've never been disappointed when I switch up my order with them. A few of my favorite things are the tacos (duh), Carne asada nachos, and the mulitas. You can taste the freshness and quality! I usually have them at a local brewery but I also attended a wedding and they were the caters! The presentation was beautiful! I loved the set up they did and again the flavor was just delicious! They always have the best people serving as well, they are so sweet and provide great service! You won't be disappointed with Buddha Boy! read more

Buddha Boy Tacos - Happy camper when she gets Buddha Boy Tacos for dinner! - Tacos Near Me

Almost didn't write this due to the food being great, but poor service can ruin even the best meal. We visited Smog City at 5:30pm on a Wednesday. It wasn't busy. The menu had no prices. When I asked, I was told tacos were $5, mulitas $7, and a taco combo plate $13. My order totaled $16.50, which seemed high. The receipt later showed $15 plus tax. When I questioned this, the cashier advised that asada was more and the owner was condescending instead of deescalating the situation, making patronizing remarks, and telling the cashier he didn't need to explain himself. He even claimed this was their first negative experience in 5 years. It was literally over $2 and could have easily been remedied but his immaturity and inability to understand how the customer is right, ultimately led to this escalating. After requesting a refund, the owner struggled to find my order in the system and eventually offered cash. He then gave me the food anyway but insinuated I was at fault for inquiring about the pricing and overcharge. Another couple joined us and experienced a 25 minute delay with their order, which was deemed lost when inquiring with the team and needed to be re-fired. The food was solid, but the owner's alpha attitude was uncalled for. He handed me his card, suggesting I find them on Yelp, and later sarcastically wished us a great night as we were leaving rather then let cooler heads prevail and coming by to see how everything was an to apologize for his ego. read more

We hired Buddha Boy Tacos for my daughter & Son in laws wedding in August for 180 plus guests after finding them on the internet.

You can tell Alexis & her husband love their job and so do their employees! Thank you, Buddha Boy Tacos!! We love you! read more

Buddha Boy successfully fed a raucous party of about 65 13 year olds and 40 adults to much satisfaction. Everyone LOVED the food, even the pickiest of kids. Not only that, they came to the party with a party vibe - super friendly, smiling and seemed genuinely happy to be there. They even surprised us with a photo of them in our Photo Booth. You guys are the coolest! Highly recommend and will absolutely hire them for future parties. read more

Delicious tacos. I've hired them for an event before and they were also great to work with.

Amazing! I meant to take a picture, but I ate the tacos too fast. . Luckily my wife took a photo before clearing her plate I tried all the proteins, and all were delicious. My favorite was the pollo asada and carne asada. Add that to the homemade tortillas and you've got a match made in heaven. So so good. Very friendly owners, great service, fantastic food. Definitely had to write a review. read more

I finally got to writing a well deserved review for BBT's handcrafted culinary creations.

I like ordering my picks well done til there's crispy crunchy cheesy/meaty crust at the edges of my every bite topped with plenty of their signature BBT Creamy Cilantro Green Sauce...Muy muy tasty. I actually got to meet, "El Buddha Boy". read more

We hired Buddha Boy for a high school graduation party after trying out the tacos at Smog City. Really nice people, easy to pick the menu and stayed in touch leading up to event (about 40 people). Everyone raved about the food. Soyrizo option for vegans was a plus. Marcus and crew were awesome. Downside is that the tacos are so big that I could only eat two! I can eat a plate of the pickled red onions. Leftovers for this week. Thanks BBT for a memorable feast! read more

Great taste, awesome people. Hired this food truck for a corporate event after tasting their food at a local brewery. Great experience all around ! Very tasty, professional staff, can't say enough good things ! read more

This is as good as it gets. I was introduced to Buddha Boy Gourmet Tacos at a friend's party. I was beyond impressed. Last week I was putting together a party for my wife, last minute planning of course and reached out to Buddha Boy. They were amazing, super responsive and easy to work with. They showed up on time and had no problems setting up in a smaller space. Marcus was head chef with a crew of two others. I wanted to impress my friends and they did just that. Most are foodies in the most extreme way and Buddha Boys quality of food, hand made tortillas and fresh dips, sides and veggies with a variety of delicious proteins made the experience magical. I honestly would give out more stars if I could. This is only for those looking to impress and have a premium food experience. read more

Best tacos in town!!!! The cooks and severs are really nice and cool, and they aren't the normal people who just cook and not talk.

We honestly had an insane amount of great food at our wedding (4 course meal, fresh donut cart, gelato cart, In n Out truck, AND Buddha Boy Tacos) -- and all anyone could talk about was the tacos. We specifically picked Buddha Boy because we saw they had homemade tortillas, knowing that would be a game changer, and we've never felt more validated. The tortillas are AMAZING, all of the ingredients are extremely high quality, and the tacos are just delicious in every way. We will be hiring Buddha Boy for just about any event we can for the rest of our lives -- it was that amazing. They were also a joy to work with -- super responsive and accommodating!! Would give 10 stars if we could :) read more

Straight fire. Made from scratch with the freshest ingredients. Bold flavors with the perfect amount of spice.
