English and Spanish review. Alerta por danos a la salud.!!! Encontre dos pelos uno Rojo y el otro Cafe. El pelo Rojo aprecio en mi orden de tacos. Y el otro pelo aparecio en mi orden de quesadilla. Mientras mi novia se comia la chimichanga yo abri la orden de quesadilla y mientras comia le encontre un pelo que no era mio. Se lo removi despistadamente para que mi novia no se diera cuenta y que no le diera asco. Pero all continuar con su orden de tacos a Ella le aparecio un pelo bien Rojo que nadie en carro tiene pelo Rojo. Aparte el processo de elaboracion de nuestra comida se notava demasiado que prepararon la comida sin ganas y sin cuidado de la salud del cliente. Como todo Mexicano y respetuoso cerramos la orden de tacos y la orden de quesadilla y procedi a pedirle una devolucion de dinnero por las dos ordenes de comida Con respcto. Al pedirle la devolucion dinnero a la senora que me attendio y me dio la orden no se nego pero trato de negar que Ella no encontro un pelo en nuestra comida. El pelo de Ella es Rojo como el pelo que nos aparecio en la orden de tacos como diciendo que estava levantando falsos. Yo nunca tengo ese tipo de intenciones de hoder a la raza. All final me regreso el dinnero de la orden de tacos y la orden de quesadilla . Y todavia sus ultimas palabras eran que Ella no encontro un pelo en nuestra orden Cuando claramente era lo contrario. Estoy seguro que habia mas pelos en la comida porque me alcanse a comer la mitad de la quesadilla cuando descubri el primer pelo . Una hora despues me dio chorro del que te da por comerte un pelo algo que nunca me pasa. Esto que digo no es falso ni lo hago con proposito de danar la reputacion de un negocio. Yo jamas regresare a este lugar. Hay muchos otros negocios honestos con intenciones y servicio honesty. Ojo y cuidado all cenar en este lugar. . . . . Health alert Me and my girlfriend ordered tacos,chimichanga, and a quesadilla. When I finished half my quesadilla the other half had a hair clearly not mine,while my girlfriend was working on her chimichanga I slipped the hair away so she wouldn't be disgusted. But when she opened the order of tacos we discovered a red hair like the red hair on the lady that took and prepared our order. With all due respect we closed both orders and processed to ask for a refund. When I asked the lady with the red hair for a refund because there was a hair in both orders,she took both orders and than claimed there wasn't any hair on the food until I showed her pictures she proceeded to refund me for both orders. But she still claimed that she didn't find any red hair to imply that I was lying. We have proof in the pictures and my intentions are not to trash an honest business. But if she is willing to go into denial while refunding me my money it seems like she did this on purpose for us to not come back. An hour later I got the runns like if a had ingested a hair. The food is very good but the intentions and service from this establishment make me feel like the maybe im not welcome. Personally I won't be back because there far more taco spots 10× better with service, elaboration process,and care for the health of the client. Im not making any of this up to tarnish a business im only being honest. read more

Visited on a Friday evening around 6pm with a friend, taco truck had maybe 5-8 other guests but not too busy, was able to place our order pretty quickly. Food: Al Pastor Taco - good, generous amount of meat, topped with diced onions, cilantro, and salsa verde, the al Pastor had good flavor, wish there was a bit more char and pineapple but pretty tasty, corn tortilla was excellent, soft and pliable with nice toasted corn flavor Carne asada - very good, perfectly cooked steak that was tender with a char from the grill, also topped with onions, cilantro and salsa verde, same great corn tortilla, favorite of the proteins that we tried Suadero - okay, brisket was a bit dry and had the shredded texture reminding me more of carnitas, same toppings as the other taco, generous portion of meat, this one benefited from an extra squeeze of lime juice and some salsa roja from the salsa bar Service was solid, order at the truck window grab a number and wait for your corder to be called. Wait for our food was about 10-15 minute. They do have a topping and salsa bar with two types of salsa, limes, radishes and cucumber. Overall really enjoyed Tacos Gonzales, more of a 4.5 star overall, food was flavorful and freshly prepared. The carne asada was some of the best I've ever had in the bay area. read more

With taco trucks all around the East Bay, it's always hard for me to decide on which one to check out -- Tacos Gonzales hit and was exactly what I needed. Space is in an empty parking lot with lots of parking and street parking. There's a space to eat and a mini sauce bar to take from with 3 different salsas. Service is quick and friendly. The food was really good!!! The al pastor here is chunkier than what I'm used to but it was really tender, tasty, and had nice fattiness to it. I also tried the lengua and their carne asada. I really enjoyed the lengua and the carne asada was good but not as good as the other two! They serve their tacos with radish, pickled carrots, and lime. You have to get sauce from their sauce bar. They don't put any sort of guac or sauce on it ahead of time - at least from the ones I had. All good though - the flavor of their meat was what I'll be coming back for for sure. Excited to come back here and try a torta! read more

Order: 1 Super Burrito (half carne asada, half lengua, with everything) 1 Large Agua Fresca (half pineapple, half guava) 3 Carne Asada Burritos (with everything) 1 Birria Ramen 1 Horchata Total: $58.14 (tax included) Location: Right on Foothill Blvd inside the Tommy Donut parking lot. There's easy access with plenty of parking available both in the lot and on the street. Ambiance & Service: Outdoor seating is available within the tent space. The ambiance is fine for casual dining. Service was great--shoutout to the young man who took my order; he was super friendly and welcoming. Heads-up: there are no prices listed on the truck, so it's best to ask before ordering. Food Review: Carne Asada Tacos: Loved them! The meat was tender and had no fat. The handmade corn tortillas were a huge plus. Salsas had just the right spice--flavorful without being too hot. I do wish they included pearl onions and nopales. My to-go order only had a grilled Serrano pepper. Birria Ramen: This one fell short for me. It lacked flavor and tasted watered down. There were no real chunks of birria, just small stringy pieces mixed in with lots of cheese. I'd rate it 5/10. I'd like to try it again, but not as a to-go order. Agua Frescas: Very sweet but good! They offer horchata, guava, pineapple, hibiscus, and tamarindo. Salsas: Three self-serve options--two red and one green. Super Burrito: My husband gave it a solid 9.5/10. He loved the tender meats and flavorful mix. Overall: I would definitely recommend this place. It's convenient, delicious, and worth checking out. read more

Tacos Gonzalez - What was left of my 3 carne asada tacos - Tacos Near Me - Hayward, California

This place is hella good! Some of the best Mexican food in the area. Loved the flavors of the meat, especially the al pastor. We got two super burritos, al pastor and carne asada. Total came out a little over $30, which is expected for the bay area. The customer service could be worked on and the amount of salsa they give you is so little. The worker looked like she was annoyed at me the entire time, I had to force a smile to soften the situation. It honestly was uncomfortable. They give you tiny plastic cups that fits probably only 1 tablespoon amount, not even the sauce cups. Therefore, it's best if you eat there so you can get enough salsas for your food. The burritos were massive and came with tons of meat. They were so filling, I ate only half of the burrito and was full. The burrito was heavenly with the sauces, just wished they gave us more. I had to use other hot sauces at home to finish the meal. They do have a taco special on Tuesdays for about $2. The parking is plenty, lots of parking in the lot area. read more

I came here last night after driving by. I wanted to see if they had any taco Tuesday special and they did. I got six tacos for $16 which nowadays is a really good deal. The meat was very flavorful and the Agua Fresca was delicious. Everyone was friendly and the food was delicious. I like that they have the table set up so you can enjoy your food there. I definitely will recommend and also be back. read more

The food was good, nice handmade tortillas. The only thing I would say is the meat was a little under flavored (al pastor) and my second meat was cold (chorizo). Service was unsatisfactory and made me not come back. The lady who took our order was rushing us from the start and had an attitude like we did something to her. Her sassiness was unprofessional and unnecessary. I recommend the food but don't expect much customer service. read more

So far the Best tacos in Hayward! The family and I have been here 4 times already and these are by far the best tacos in the area. The menu doesn't have prices listed so you can ask when ordering at the window. I love the pastor tacos here they're the best ones I've had around. The tortillas a mano definitely make the tacos more delicious. They also have aguas frescas, so far I've tried the tamarindo, jamaica and melon and they are very tasty and definitely not the powder mix you find elsewhere. Definitely a must try! read more

Fresh salsas and fresh aguas frescas too, trust me it was an amazing find and I'll be recommending it to everyone looking for a new taco spot in Hayward!

Today I brought my son here for a special Friday treat. This was at a pop up spot on 98th in East Oakland. He's a burrito connoisseur so I trust his assessment in saying that "this place is AMAZING!!?" The staff was helpful and kind. The food was made quickly and came out hot. The aroma of the food was mouth watering. Everyone we encountered in the area was kind. The table setup outside was perfect for our afternoon plans. Thank you for being here today and for your kindness, commitment to great customer service and for your AMAZING food. read more

Delicious food held back by frustrating service Pros: Amazing Tijuana style tacos only on Thursday-Sunday. on these days there's an extra charcoal grill cooking thin cuts of steak. The tortillas are homemade and are light and airy. Wish the guacamole was a real guac and not a salsa hybrid though. Went on taco Tuesday, and they were regular tacos, meat quality wasn't as good as the Tijuana style and tortillas were store bought, crisped up slightly. Still very good and unbeatable at $2. There is also no condiment bar when I went on Tuesday. Also tried the asada fries and they are the best in Hayward! Cons: I have no idea what anything costs, they don't list out any prices. There is a credit card surcharge which they don't disclose and I don't know how much it is, maybe a dollar? the hours listed on Yelp, google, and even their ig is wrong. We went at 2 but they said they weren't open until 3. Food can take a while especially with a line and it can get pretty cramped, also difficult to get salsa as you have to ladel it into these super tiny solo cups. A dispenser would be so much easier. read more

My wife and I tried this place for the first time and we were not disappointed I tried the Super Burrito with asada and the ratio of ingredients was perfect. My wife got the Birria Ramen and it too was . Super favorful and the "to go" packaging was a nice touch. We also grabbed a Torta for my son and I'm sure it'll be great when he gets home. The meat that was in our food was delicious with little to no chunks of fat. They offer a lot of protein choices so be prepared to be overwhelmed. Oh, and the green salsa is some of the best I've had. We can't wait to try more items. Super friendly staff. FYI, They do cash and cash apps like Venmo and Zelle but no debit/credit cards. read more

The hand made tortilla was perfect thickness to where our taco didn't break which was a plus.

I would give this place full stars but they started getting real cheap with the radishes and peppers. Doesn't matter how many tacos I order they always give me ONE slice piece of radish. When I say I'll pay for more they give me 2 more slices...maybe I am use to when taco trucks would give you a bag of pickled radishes and peppers but at least give a slice per taco. And when you ask for more there is always attitude. read more

Amazing Hand made Tortillas and Flavorful Meat!! Was Hella Bomb!! The Agua Frescas Are Really Good Also!

Really disappointed with the San Leandro location. It took about 30 minutes just to get my tacos de asada, and when they finally came out, the order was wrong. The tacos also looked nothing like the ones they post on Instagram. On top of that, the "$2 Tuesday" special they advertise is only for the Hayward location -- something they should make clear. Definitely not worth the wait or the confusion. read more

I had high expectations for this place because of the reviews, and while their meat is really good, the quality of their tortillas leave much to be desired. Maybe my expectations were too high, but I would rather go to other places where I know they make their tortillas from scratch! Also they were super stingy with their napkins for some reason. We asked for extra napkins since they didn't give me any but they pointed and said my friend has one singular napkin so they didn't give us any extra. read more

Best taco spot in Hayward hands down. Owners are very friendly and food is always high quality. Give it a try you won't regret it!

THESE ARE THE BEST TACOS IN HAYWARD - I can't find a place in the nearby area of CV-Hayward-Union City that comes close to Tacos Gonzalez's quality. My boyfriend and I love coming here because the service is solid, the food (tacos and burritos alike) is delicious, and the aguas frescas stay refreshing. The truck is posted up in a lot next to a bakery about half the week, surrounded by some tents and tables for on site dining. The have staff outside the truck who work on roasting peppers and help out customers with serving the various types of aguas frescas. The carne asada and al pastor tacos here don't miss (there has been times where we order a second round just because it does the job well!) I recently tried an al pastor super burrito here and was impressed that the portion was a perfect size, that they threw in pineapples in it, and also that it didn't leave that heavy greasy feeling most burritos do (I didn't have a food coma after but I did have a flavorful, well seasoned meal!). If you're ever in the area looking for Mexican food, find this truck and try all the goods! read more

I recently visited tacos Gonzalez and had a profoundly disappointing experience that I feel compelled to share. Upon arrival, I observed the employee at the counter being extremely friendly and engaging with the customer ahead of me. However, when it was my turn, I immediately felt judged and was met with a noticeably cold and strange demeanor. This feeling of being unwelcome was very unprofessional. When I attempted to order an item containing steak, I was told definitively that they had no steak available. I left the establishment but called back less than 10 minutes later, only to be told that steak was available. This wasted my time and caused unnecessary back and fourth The food itself was not of high quality. More concerningly, shortly after consuming the item--which was the only thing I had eaten all day--it caused me significant stomach discomfort. This points to a serious issue with either the preparation or the freshness of the ingredients Between the overtly poor service, the frustrating miscommunication, and the negative physical reaction to the food, I cannot recommend [Insert Business Name Here]. There are better places to spend your time and money. read more
