I decided to give a try at this food truck which is located off of Silver Creek in the plaza corner of Hardware nursery. The lady who took our ordered did not give small container for condiments and those who were behind us who ordered their food, had a container given by her. My husband and I went to look for a container on the table to put our sauce in and realized there was no container except for the lids. That's when I noticed she handed out containers as we had paid our food, but then didn't give us any, which I feel that was rude.. The area was clean and they do go to tables to wipe down which it's good to keep it clean. We ordered a super burrito, which is $14 Carne Asada and we also ordered Carne Asada quesadilla. Burrito was huge and quesadilla was also huge, but the only thing was the meat was very salty so everything was salty as if we just ate salt instead. My total came out to be only $27 , I am glad I didn't spend a lot at this truck . Definitely will not come to this location . Foremost the lady that didn't give any containers for our condiments. . Our food was just beyond salty. We will try another spot around the area. read more

I swear I always try to come here and the truck is never here or I'm not 100% sure when they come. But I was able to catch it one random night and decided to try!! Lots of seating and easy parking. The carne asada was delish and the tortilla was pretty good too. They had a lot of sides + sauces for you to get. I'd def come back if I was in a street taco mood. read more

I went to the Silver Creek Rd location next to OSH. This is my 2nd time and I am pleasantly surprised at how much meat they gave me. Here's the quick rundown: + Heavy meat to tortilla ratio which can be too much but with all you can eat toppings it is a winner (5 stars) + AYCE toppings include pico de gallo, grilled peppers, grilled onions and the usual onions and cilantro (5 stars) + $3 per taco is a steal (5 stars) + Tortillas are not dipped in lard which health conscious folks may prefer, but not me (3 stars) - Asada doesn't have the char flavors of cooking over a charcoal fire as other taco establishments (2 stars) You're seated outdoor but they actually have covered seating with napkins on each table. I was a little disappointed on the asada so I gotta try other meats. Since the Tesla supercharger is nearby and this place opens late I will definitely return. read more

Amazing food and service. They have great portions and amazing flavors. There layout feels safe and comfortable I would recommend to anything looking for quality well priced Mexican food read more

Horrible service refused free chips for charging me for an extra burrito. Food is advertised as cheaper than it really is. When I asked for chips to compensate for the overcharge they said "fat boy" and walked away. Wouldn't even give my my complementary mints. Horrible location as well, behind an outdoor supply store near dumpsters and the smell of gas ruins the experience. I tried to make a separate order for jarritos and she tried to put an extra one in the receipt. Spent almost $90 for 3 people. Small chunk of avocado seed on a burrito and called it normal for some reason. Stains in containers for the beans cups. Waited 45 minutes for food Sauce containers complementary, but when I asked for some, they declined and said I waited too long. I wanted until I got my food to ask. Also when I asked for the sauce, they pulled the "we're a small business" card and had the audacity to say "we're just doing our jobs" when they clearly can't do their job. Burritos cold on one side and slightly warm on the other read more

Food : 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1 They charged us an extra $20 and we don't even know if we're gonna get refunded or not, so we asked for some chips for the inconvenience and they said no. And on top of all of that I found avocado seeds in my food. read more

Do not eat here or you will regret it. The service at this place was terrible. I ordered a alambre (a type of Mexican dish) and it was delivered burnt and missing several of the ingredients listed on the menu. When I arrived, I placed my order and asked about the ingredients; initially, everything seemed fine. My wife ordered a burrito without some of the ingredients, and the person who took the order--a Colombian woman, not very friendly and clearly distracted by the cook and her cell phone--served us without paying much attention. I don't care about her privacy, but I do care about the lack of professionalism. There were about seven people ahead of me, so I waited about 25 minutes. Three more people arrived, and although the place seemed busy, both the cook and the cashier were joking around instead of focusing on their work. Everyone ahead of me was served, then number 8, then number 9... and before I knew it, they had also served number 10. The cashier looked annoyed and asked if I had received my food yet; I replied no. The cook served other orders before mine, and I ended up being last. The cashier, a little nervous, just kept repeating, "It'll be ready in a minute." After another five minutes, I went to get my vegetables and salsas, but there were no lemons, cucumbers, salsas, or beans. The entire ingredients area was dirty. I asked the woman to refill it, and she did, but mentioned they were out of cucumbers. If I'm paying full price, I expect to receive full service. In the end, I left annoyed and with a bad experience, thinking, "Well, I'll eat my alambre and my wife will have her burrito." Imagine my surprise when my alambre was burnt and completely golden brown. I think the cook gave me whatever was left on the griddle, or he forgot about my burrito. The meat was all mushy, and the cheese was cold and not even melted. I'm so angry because you expect good service when you pay a lot, and these people are either chatting up or distracted. I think it goes without saying that this will be the last time I eat there. Anyway, check out the pictures. Thank you for your response. I understand that sometimes businesses may deal with difficult employees, but customer comments exist so owners can identify what needs improvement. If customers don't share their experiences, you could lose business without ever knowing why. Regardless of the reasons behind the bad service, the responsibility is still on the business to make sure customers receive good food and good customer service -- especially because we are paying for it. I'm not looking for sad stories or excuses. I simply hope you take this feedback to improve your business so it can succeed. I also added a picture of the location because it shows up on Google but not on Yelp -- I wonder why? lol read more

Meat was very tender. Quesadilla was too oily and cheesy for me but I still demolished it. Hubby's burrito and tacos were good too. 4 stars because there was no frescas (as it was literally being advertised) and it was hard for us to order because no one spoke English :( read more

My go to late night local taco truck. They're typically set up on silver creek road in across the street from the target in the parking lot of Outdoor Supply Hardware or sprouts. They have outdoor seating and a self service grilled veggie bar (onions, jalapeños, peppers) as well as all the sauces, limes and radishes. I got the carne asada tacos with each taco being 3 dollars I believe. The meat was a tad overcooked for my liking sometimes, but for 3 dollars a pop and the unlimited veggies, I keep coming back :) It's nice sitting outside on a cool or warm night and eating some reasonably priced tacos! read more

The tacos and burritos here are solid but a little too oily for my liking. I think the best meat to get here is their carne asada or pastor. I did not really enjoy the lengua here. If I am near here, I would come back. I wouldn't not drive out of the way to get it though. read more

Ordered through door dash. These birria tacos were some of the best I've had! Not overly greasy, especially the consommé.. the consommé was BOMB.COM, I coulda drank it. The meat wasn't all fatty either like some other places I've tried. Super tender and flavorful inside of perfectly crisp tacos. Their red salsa is delicious too. I'll be ordering again real soon (: read more

Tacos La Choca - a close up of a taco in a styrofoam container - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

This place is completely negligent when it comes to restaurant service! I specifically ordered extra crema on my tacos, and the Birria tacos on DoorDash clearly state they come with a cup of consomé. They forgot both! I ordered through DoorDash for convenience, and now I can't even call the restaurant to complain. I asked my Dasher, and he said he double-checked with them to ensure everything was included, and they confirmed it was. Now I have to go through the hassle of reporting this to DoorDash just to get my money back. Absolutely unacceptable and a complete waste of time! read more

Not the best and not the worst. I'm from SoCal and hands down the best tacos are home. This taco truck is owned by two ladies and they were somewhat friendly they just stared a lot at my group of friends which was fine...I guess just made it a little uncomfortable. There's not a lot of seating outside. read more

The food was decent. However, they automatically include a 15% tip without showing you. Check your credit card transaction later. I don't like this kind of practice so I won't be going back. read more

This review is for a 'new' location at Street life Records parking lot on Bascom Ave in West San Jose: 980 S Bascom Ave, San Jose, CA 95128--which isn't on Yelp at this time: 3/2025. My husband had an item that looked like a quesidilla (with meat inside), but it wasn't and we never heard of it before--but it was good. I had the quesabirrias tacos (that come 3 to a plate w/broth and beef is your ONLY meat choice with these tacos) with a good amount of broth in a small cup with spoon. Our orders arrived piping hot and you can serve yourself multiple salsas, veggies, at their 'bar' area. I'm a white woman and nothing was too spicy or challenging taste-wise, and the area was literally sparkling clean (table cloth, chairs and the bar). These ladies work HARD keeping this area presentable! There was one woman there taking orders and cooking, and there is a language barrier if you don't know a little spanish. Make sure you download Google Translate to assist you with ordering if you don't speak a little spanish. This location is very clean, has 1 table under good lighting and dress warmly--oh and no bathroom near by either. No heaters and you are under a 'tent/awning', but out in the open air (which is chilly). The only beverages they have is one pink aqua fresca, and that is it. We'll be back and hope they stay there for the Summer months. Hours are 3pm-midnight NOT OPEN FOR LUNCH!!!! read more

Best birria for the best price in San Jose. Only thing is it says they open the one on capital at 5:00 and they don't even arrive on capital till 5:45 to set up the truck and start cooking especially because I pre ordered for pick up through DoorDash it let me place the order and now I'm sitting in the parking lot if this wasn't the best birria I can find near me I'd be super annoyed read more

Tacos La Choca - Open and close schedule - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

Food good but when you pay with You card they have hidden fees both this location and the one on silver creeks they should be upfront about it , it doesn't even show on ur receipt it only shows on ur bank account it they say they have a sign but it should always show on ur receipt they give you, also when I paid cash they gave me less change when I asked how much the tacos were they acted like they realized they made a mistake in the change and said sorry here is the rest!! Won't be coming here I rather go to somewhere else even if it's further then to be dealing with scammers! read more

Really good quesabirria tacos. We ordered from DoorDash and they're always fresh when they arrive.

Unsanitary food truck despite having good food. I watched as they cleaned the truck with a dirty sponge and then handle food wearing the same gloves. Super gross. read more

Staff was really nice. They prefer cash but do accept card. I like that they have a separate table with the toppings so you are able to help yourself. Parking is pretty easy. I got a horchata and 4 tacos (asada, pastor, carnitas, and chorizo) all were amazing but the asada really stood out. 10/10 would come back. read more

Unfortunately I had to put this review, they were always attentive with customer service, I was a regular every Saturday, they only messed up my order once and they fixed it with another one, BUT Now I don't be going cause the food ain't the same as before, Kids nowadays can't wrap a burrito right. And they tend to question and give attitude. Don't Normally do reviews just that they ain't professional no more. read more

I come here several times a week and today the lady was a complete BITCH. She didn't give sauce cups, tried to charge for a plain cup, gave one salt packet and had the nastiest attitude ever. I constantly come here and fully spend a lot of money today i came for a quick snack and she was so rude they served our food on tiny trays instead of a plate when everyone else had plates . No to go foil no bag or nothing . Do NOT COME HERE the lady's beyond DISRESPECTFUL and we're a long term customer and we were telling so many locals about this place which brought in many customers. But with that foul nasty attitude the woman has it isn't worth spending a penny! They discriminate and act so beyond foul read more

I just just ordered here for the first time on door dash. I did not give 5 stars cus there were not any of the fixings for the Birria Ramen (as stated on the app), and the two tacos I ordered weren't wrapped in foil or anything, so they kind of went all over the place. I have not touched the tacos yet, BUT I did need to come and say that the Birria Ramen was delicious!!! This is my first time ever trying Birria Ramen and it actually exceeded my expectations, the consome was so good!! I definitely would order this again!! Thank you tacos, la Cocha!! read more

extremely nice place to stop by for burritos and tortas.

This is my favorite taco truck! They have two locations, one on Monterey and one on Aborn. Their tacos are always made to order and are piping hot with generous amount of meat. I've tried their hotdogs, burritos, al pastor, carnitas, tripa, and asada tacos... Everything was delicious and VERY affordable. I usually come here on late night weekends and everything still tastes amazing. The employees here are very nice and I like the tent they set up next to the truck. My husband and I are frequent customers and will be returning again very soon. read more

Highly recommend this spot, they DO NOT skimp on the birria!
