Beyond disappointed. Bite 1-2, overlap tortilla so thick its like chewing on a tire. Bite 3-4 better but salty carnitas. Bite 5 middle of burrito was so over lapped again, it was like rubber! Tossed the last half. read more

Tacos Jalisco - Top portion of burrito. Nothing but rubbery tortilla. - Mexican Near Me - Benicia, California

Food is very delicious. I love their shrimp taco salad. Place is always clean. Staff is friendly, helpful and very fast. Definitely recommend! read more

I'm pretty sure this is the only taco truck in Benicia but they have pretty solid burritos! My husband gets takeout from here every once in awhile and we always opt for the super burritos! I got the carne asada and it was packed with hearty meat. I just wish I had added on the salsa because I felt like it could use some sauce inside. Lots of sour cream though and that was nice! They give some hot sauce on the side which adds a nice kick. read more

Tacos Jalisco - the inside of a burrito - Mexican Near Me - Benicia, California

Fantastic!! keep up the good work! Really really really good food. Very consistent. We've been eating here for decades.

This place is still my favorite Mexican Food in town. This place is so good that me and my girl had to come here twice this week. The first time I ordered a Super Chicken Burrito which seemed bigger than the burritos I grew up. Not complaining at all but just had to throw that out there. Yesterday I ordered a Carne Asada Torta. That also was pretty solid. Plenty of meat and even better once you add some of their tasty hot sauces. I've lived in Benicia all my life and have been here millions of times. The one thing I can say about Tacos Jalisco is that they are very consistent. I can't think of the last time that they messed up an order or something didn't taste right. I actually don't know if I've ever had a bad order here now that I think about it. If you are in Benicia and want Authentic Mexican, this taco truck should definitely be on your eye. Just don't forget to bring cash since they are Cash Only. There is an ATM at the liquor store next door but there is a hefty charge last I remember. read more

Quick, delicious, and easy access. They're right off the freeway and have never had a problem finding parking in the tiny mart spaces or on the street. A little hard to hear when placing the order but the point gets across and you don't have to wait a ridiculous long time to get your order. Always say yes to the salsa offered. Super tasty. Can't go wrong with tacos. If you're going for a burrito, just make it the super. It won't fall apart either. They've got a bench or two to eat at if you're right on time and want to eat outdoors. I'd recommend just eating out of your car if you drove. read more

We love Mexican food and Tacos Jalisco serves up authentic dishes with huge portions and friendly service. Their food truck in Benicia also is great! My favorites are the taco salad and chilli rellenos. read more

Best chicharron burrito I ever had. Service was quick. Extra meat didn't seem so extra. Ambiance is what you would expect for a taco truck, but even better with picnic tables. Just drive yourself down to the water and eat your burrito there. read more

Downhill food and higher prices. Supreme burrito but nothing supreme about beans, rice, and meat. Will never go here again. Love supporting small businesses but this is California and there are better "supreme" burritos for $11; for example, Taco Bell. read more

Vidal is a great guy who also has a taco truck! He came to the US in the mid 80's from Jalisco and built his business. After much tasting and searching Tacos Jalisco is the choice for us! Vidal's commitment to quality and his clients along with the best flavor is why we continue to choose them! Need more proof? His staff have been with him for 20+ years! That to me is proof enough! read more

Tacos Jalisco - 2 chicken 2 steak add cheese and sour cream & avocado baby - Mexican Near Me - Benicia, California

The one and only taco truck in Benicia. I opted to try their asada and al pastor tacos. At $2.50 each (cash only) I was a bit underwhelmed overall. Both meats were lacking in flavor but had no fatty bits which is a plus. The tortillas were a tad dry so having the onions, cilantro, and salsa helped with that. I don't see myself coming here again but I'm glad I got to support a local business. read more

Gluten-free and dairy-free friendly, celiac oasis. This is the only restaurant in CA where I don't even specify GF, DF when I order anymore because I've had so many positive experiences that I know their kitchen is safe for me. I love/crave their Birria tacos and get them with the fixings (onion & cilantro), and salsas to add (order is default GF, DF). Consistently excellent service and cuisine. My darlin' loves their carnitas burrito, and every meat taco he's tried. He's been going here for ~20 years. Support a local institution. I am a super-sensitive celiac.

I used to get solid Mexican style food here regularly. Really enjoyed good food at reasonable prices. Hadn't been in in a few years and went back this week to get a burrito. Menu hasn't changed, still burritos, tacos, what not but what the heck happened to the prices $$$? Holy cow, $10 for a chicken burrito with rice and beans from a taco truck? No restaurant overhead, no table service, no restrooms, no wait staff no anything but a burrito wrapped in thin aluminum and you want to charge these prices? Not a chance. Too bad you guys used to be good. I'll be getting a better burrito with indoor dining in downtown Benicia for those prices. So sad. Sayonara folks! read more

I've eaten her twice and both the chicken and beef tacos are SO GOOD. They're just the right amount of spicy and super affordable, so my partner and I will order 2-3 of each and share. The only thing I'd change is their hours - I wish they stayed open just a little later! Now that we're working from home it's easier to catch them for dinner time - they're open 11am-5pm, and before COVID I seemed to always get home around 5:15 just a smidge too late to grab tacos for an easy dinner. It's much easier now that we're working from home! Delicious tacos! I look forward to the next time we stop by. :) read more

Low prices, good food, cash only. Great Spanish rice! Get the Al Pastor (spicy pork) burrito, with cheese and a tomato tortilla ($6). Tip: You get to choose the type of tortilla with your burrito (spinach, tomato, garlic, or regular). They'll ask if you want green or red sauce--can get both, but green is great! read more

The shredded chicken tacos and the carnitas taco that I just got from this truck were amazing! I also did get a side order of rice, but it was super plain. Their hot sauce is super good as well. My boyfriend got the asada tacos and he says they're pretty good too. Overall, super good, just wish the rice had more flavor. read more

I can't get enough of Taco Jalisco, I go there all the time. I know it's going to be good food!

Awesome tacos and burritos. You have to wait for it but we'll worth it. Prices are reasonable as well.

The food is excellent and I should know I live in Mexico around eight months a year. I always come back to town and buy a giant burrito and head to the marina and munch while watching boats and beauty and peace. read more

The best burritos in Benicia doesnt mean to much. Consistently mediocre. Small. Minimal to no seasoning, harder to notice though if you get a super substituting cheese for flavor. Salsas are decent but tiny. Heavy on the rice. Would do about as well at taco bell really, premium price for mediocracy. Literally about 2 tablespoons of meat on a good day. The people keep coming so i guess no need to change. 2nd star for service with a smile. read more

Thank god for Tacos Jalisco! Easily the best Mexican food in Benicia. The carnitas tacos reign supreme, nothing better. Thank you for feeding Benicia! read more

This was a decent traditional taco truck. However, it wasn't repeat worthy with the amazing Mexican food available in California. We ate at a picnic table with locals that claimed it was the best in town?!? I would stop again for a affordable lunch but not one the must have food list for the area. read more

I love this Taco truck! My favorite in Benicia. I even have my niece hooked on it. They are fast, friendly and consistently good. My mom doesn't like that they don't toast their taco shells but she loves their burritos. Check it out! You'll be glad you did. read more

This is a Mexican roach coach - not too many ways to spin the ambiance and service here, HOWEVER, the food tastes good, as roach coach food should! BTW, the proper name of the business is Tacos Jalisco, not "Taco Truck" but the place has a huge local following (including me) and I guess everyone local just refers to it as the Taco Truck, so there it is. Today I swung by thinking of getting my usual carnitas burrito, but then I saw the paper sign in the truck window stating "Fish Tacos $1.50." Fish tacos are my favorite and $1.50 is as cheap as they get so I ordered a few. THEY WERE DOUBLE-E DEELICIOUS! Most restaurants make fish tacos using batter-fried fish fillets, THESE tacos were made using FRESH FISH. Each taco was piled high with tender, fresh, delicious fish chunks - and I do mean piled high! I asked them what kind of fish they use, it's basa, and unfortunately they only serve these on Fridays. The main drawbacks of Tacos Jalisco are that the truck is located next to a liquor store and not far from a Big-O, so not prime real estate, and because they are so popular there is usually a 5 to 15 minute wait for your food. Get it? Hanging outside a liquor store with a handful of strangers, many smoking, playing load music in their jalopies or looking gruff next to their Harley. Good thing Benicia is actually a very safe place and the Police station is not far either! Now that they have fish tacos I will be back more often, Damn the vagrants and full speed ahead! read more

Best Mexican food in town, and it's not even close. Super fast service and a convenient quick meal.

This pretty red truck is parked at the edge of a liquor store with a great vintage neon sign. The taco was okay, nothing that I would go out of my way to have again. I would stop; however, when I am in the area and have them again. There is something really satisfying sitting at the table eating tacos and admiring the neon sign and watch traffic go by read more

Why did NO ONE tell me about this little nugget of goodness? Change is good, people!! A great big "Thanks" for turning a rather dreary Friday afternoon, into a glorious lunch time affair. I'd heard about another infamous taco truck around the streets of Benicia. But being of the lazy sorts I never ventured out to find it. The one that is about a block away suffices, but I had a bad experience recently, so we're on a break. A sweet co-worker offered to pick me up something. Upon suggestion, I ordered the carne asada burrito (sin frijoles). Basic as it was - rice, avocado, & carne asada - the flavor was on point. The seasoning of the carne was delicious and stood out, it wasn't blended in by all the other filler. I was also completely amazed by the gorgeous green slices of avocado that was in my burrito, not guac, but actual slices of avocado. That's a game changer for sure! Although this is the only thing I've tried, I'm willing to get down on some other goodness that they sell...needless to say, this will be my go-to spot from here on out...if I can find it that is ;) Making my burrito cravings stronger by the burrito... read more

Only been there twice. Authentic Mexican food with good menu. Worth another try. Small interior space.

Best tacos in Benicia. A food truck that is always busy. Come early, close to 4/5 the carne asada may be gone. Not a knock on them, just means they sell out of great food quick! read more

This is my go to taco truck! They make the best asada tacos and quesadillas. They have really good hot sauce too.

Best Mexican food in Benicia by far. Yes it is a taco truck but let's be honest, if you're from the Bay that shouldn't matter. The tacos are bomb, especially when you get them with the works (cheese and sour cream). The cheese and sour cream really kick it up a notch. I've had the carne asada and pastor, both are good options. They also come with these caramelized mini onions on the side which are very tasty. My girlfriend is a vegetarian and they have veggie super burritos and even veggie tacos that she loves. I've even noticed a lot of other people ordering the veggie options while waiting for my food. The tamales are pretty solid as well, I believe they only have pork but still a good add on item. They only have whole beans which is pretty cool rather than the traditional refried beans. Overall, don't let the fact that this is a taco truck because they pump out great fresh authentic Mexican food! So fresh that if you get there too late your meat options may be limited. read more

Good stuff! They were out of a couple items we wanted (including a flavored tortilla) and we would really love for grilled vegetables to be an add on option . But I don't have any actual complaints because this food was fantastic! Will definitely come regularly! read more

My favorite Mexican in the Benicia/ Vallejo area. Come here at least once a week. To be honest I usually get vegetarian items but they are great. The fish tacos are great but sell out if you dont get there early. I love the green sauce and it seems like thats what most people ask for. Its really delicious. Convenient, fast and always on point, never had a bad meal there. The lady who works up front is really nice too and is very easy to talk to. Just an all around great place. read more
