We had Big Boyz Tacos cook at our baby shower and it was great!! I found them via Yelp when looking for a local taco catering team. They were super easy to work with via email to book the event, with prompt responses and simple payment processing. They were on-time (even a little early!) on the day of the event and got all set up easily. It was a super hot day and we felt so bad they were cooking in the heat but they were super friendly and had great attitudes! The food was fantastic and even with everyone eating and many having multiple plates, we had a ton of leftovers (not complaining!!) The pork carnitas and the elote were the biggest hits for us! I would definitely recommend Big Boyz for taco catering and would look to hire them again for any other parties or events we might have in the future and also hope to stop by when they're popped up around town! read more

Delicious tacos! All homemade and fresh ingredients. Quick service and friendly staff. The perfect lunch in the park! read more

My daughter hired this team for a baby shower event. Unfortunately, she was hospitalized on an emergency resulting from her pregnancy. They were contacted immediately. In short, a full refund was issued. We were at first concerned due to no immediate respond but their action spoke louder than words. We will consider them in the near future. read more

All I can say is WOW! Last night was the second time my wife and I have used Big Boyz Taco Cart service and for the second time, they did not disappoint. My wife's 45th birthday party was a success and it was in large part, because of the great food and service that we received. Savannah and Ivan were the ones that came and created and served some delicious, authentic Mexican street food! Hats off to those two. They were not only personable and friendly, but very professional and attentive. Cannot say enough good things about them. When they left, there was zero evidence that they were even there! Overall just a great experience. Not only will I be using them again in the future, but all of my guests were very satisfied and all said that they will be using them too in the future for their own parties. Hats off guys and gals. read more

Came here Fri 12.27.24 to their foodtruck at Santee Lakes. Walked by and saw the sign it said 4 Tacos for $10 and 1 Quesadilla for $5. And they rung me up $5 tacos for $15 and 1 Quesadilla for $8. WTH!!! NEVER wil I order Mexican food from them again..Its NOT even worth the first price. Tiny tiny tiny baby Tacos was cold and tasteless, and a Tiny tiny tiny White Cheese Quesadilla size of a regular mini tortilla frm the grocery store. Really??? PURE PATHETIC. Jus goto Estradas down the street. Wayyyy cheaper and more quantity and quality for yr money. read more

Highly recommend :) read more

Big Boyz Tacos, located them at a charity event first time trying so I had two Mulitas, one Carne Asada, and one adobada w/everthing. The crew was ready and quick. Now to the food, the Mulitas are my new favorite food the Carne Asada and the Adobada we're soft tender and damn right delicious and was worth planting them down I don't much like rice and beans but was given a sample and I actually like their Rice and beans beans are smooth and flavorful. The rice is light and fluffy. Let me for one hell of a great breakfast on a Saturday after giving blood if you see him about you've got to try them and I almost finished off everything before I realized I should've taken a picture read more

Great carne asada tacos! These guys are a true family business and they treat their customers so kindly! Had their tacos at my friend's party and they were epic! My kid ate 3 tacos and he normally barely eats half a taco! Highly recommend! Their stand is great and the branding too, very clean as well. read more

Great local eats today for Beerfest 2026! Happened to also be the first place open today! ​

Grateful I found Big Boyz on yelp! I was planning my baby shower of approx ~50 ppl, and the park location I booked my event at requires any outside caterers/vendors to have insurance. I contacted a few other taquizas before finding Big Boyz, without luck. Big Boyz responded almost immediately, included a PDF via email that has all info about their services and options, and confirmed they have insurance. I didn't need to ask a million questions, as they were all on the PDF form, but even w/my additional questions, they responded right away. The park required me to obtain a different certificate of proof of insurance than I provided, and Big Boyz obtained it right away from their insurance company, no questions asked! It was a bit last minute planning on my end and Big Boyz were so smooth to coordinate with, and eased my stress. Day of they arrived on time, set up on time, served all of my guests without any issues, tacos were great. I really couldn't have asked for more! Thank you!! read more

Super happy with Bogboyz Tacos & their catering. Amazing tacos, Spanish rice & pinto beans. Family run business, local, very kind & professional. Art, the owner was so personable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. read more

I hired Big Boyz tacos for our Company Cornhole Charity event. Not only were they on time, but everyone raved how good the tacos were. I've had different taco companies before and this one by far was my favorite. The meat was so different due to the charcoal taste. The staff was so accommodating and nice. Highly recommend for your next event if your looking for a taco truck. read more

Delicious food and super friendly people! I tried every different taco and they were all amazing! read more

Out of all the taco catering vendors I've tried, big boys tacos with their meat grilled over charcoal taste the best!

Don't believe the hype -- they were awful. We had a party with about 60 people and chose Big Boyz based on: 1) Positive reviews here. 2) They have fresh flour tortillas as an option. 3) They were available when our first choice was not. The guest of honor cannot eat red meat, so chicken was our first choice and the first thing ordered. We also ordered carne asada and carnitas for variety. Of course, we were excited about fresh flour tortillas to be made on site, at a cost of $1.85 extra per person. We sent in our order in clear detail and paid the deposit in advance. I then updated them with the number of people, which had grown with more RSVPs. When it came time for the party, a bunch of people could not make it so we paid for about 12 more people than were there. Three people arrived to set up at the same time as the churro vendor we hired, who was starting an hour later (5 stars for those guys, BTW). Supposedly their prep table broke so they borrowed a couple little ones we had. They were on time, but I was busy and didn't try the food for an hour or so. All they had was carne asada, carnitas and corn tortillas. I asked about it, and THEY FORGOT the chicken and fresh flour tortillas. That's not cool. They didn't even have regular flour tortillas. Why would they have three people working if one isn't making tortillas? The guest of honor had carnitas, assuming it was chicken. It was not. As guests were giving up on the tacos (which were almost completely out), someone brought over a little chicken. Too little, too late. It was 15-20 minutes before they were finished serving for the night. So, there were three people working a normal taco stand. One cooked, one plated the meat on a corn tortilla (yuck), and one put toppings on the tacos. The carne asada was very dry. We live in the South Bay and know better. This was the worst carne asada I can ever remember having. The carnitas was OK but fatty. Some people got chicken tacos in the last few minutes because the other food had almost run out, and not everyone eats beef or pork. Even with paying for at least 12 more people than showed up, they ran out of food, except for the scraps. I fully would have expected lots of leftovers, but maybe because they had only 2 of the 3 meats until the end, we got shorted. We were severely disappointed, but I didn't want to make a fuss about it during the party. However, when packing up the crew handed me the phone to talk to management. I stood there for about 20 minutes going back and forth with them about the bill while guests were leaving. They wanted to credit me for $30 for their mistakes. Seriously? On a $700 bill where they forgot over 1/3 of the order? They would not leave until full payment was made. They said the owner would contact me on Monday to settle the bill. He did not. I was left with a greasy mess when they left (just in back; not where the guests were). It had just been power washed, but after the party it was greasy and had chunks of food. When I mentioned that to the owner, he denied it. He had never even seen it, so that gives you an idea of what you may have to deal with. To summarize our experience: 1. They forgot to bring chicken. 2. They forgot to make fresh flour tortillas for which we paid extra. 3. We supplied them with tables once the party had started. 4. The meat was overcooked and dry. 5. They left a mess, then the owner denied it. 6. I spent time haggling over the bill during the party, and I still had to pay the whole thing before they would leave. They said the owner would contact me the following Monday, but he did not. If you want Big Problems, then go with Big Boyz. read more

This vendor specializes in street tacos, hence the name. The are available for private events for catering, public markets, and for local breweries. I ran into them at East County Market in Santee and ordered four tacos, two carne asada and two barbacoa tacos with all the fixings. The tacos were tasty and came with a lot of beef on all four. The carne asada was a little over done but it had good flavor, especially from the smoke of the mesquite wood. The barbacoa offered a good depth of flavors and was tender. I do like the way they griddle the corn tortillas to give that nice color and flavor. But, I do recommend that they double up on the corn tortillas for ease of eating of the tacos and to help keep them together better. read more

I ordered one taco of each Protien they offer. Which is Carne asada, Chicken, and adobada. The meat was super dry, the carne asada was only fat/nerve/tendon barely any regular meat. Chicken was dry with not much flavor. Adobada was dry and chewy. All the Protiens were dry like they were over cooked, under seasoned and the guacamole tasted like nasty old avocados. Hands down worst tacos I've ever had in San Diego. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Over priced, Over Cooked, Under seasoned, and Poor meat quality. I know it was really bad because I was super hungry and it's still the worst tacos I've ever eaten. read more

I've been ordering from big boyz for 3 years now for catering and it's always a hit. I have done both in person and pickup catering and my guests are always impressed with the quality and flavor of the food. 10/10 recommend read more

Had the pleasure of being a repeat customer of big Boyz at the brewery today!! Super good food :) As always the customer service is incredible and the food tastes amazing as it's charcoal cooked!! Their salsa is incredible, I always ask for extra!!! Thank you all, you're appreciated!!!! read more

Has these mulitas from a stand at a brewery. Super disappointing. I actually have to applaud them for being able to make our food so tasteless. I felt I was eating the food for sustenance instead of enjoying it. If you want something for the sake of eating, go here but the guacamole was flavorless, the meat was not seasoned, and the only thing I tasted was onion. I'll definitely remember them for how flavorless and bland their food is. I think they are scared of salt . Didn't finish out food because it was not worth it read more

Carlos was busy grilling and crankin' em out while Henry was serving! Street style tacos-choices carne asada, adobada, and chicken seasoned & grilled perfectly-packed with flavor but yet so simple and topped off with fresh pico de gallo, creamy guacamole and salsas on a palm sized corn tortilla! Asking about rice and beans? Of course! They serve that too' :) equally simple but wonderfully flavorful!

Arturo was great: he is responsive, was at our private event on time to set up, and served over 100 people without there being much of a wait. Everyone loved the food, and having Big Boyz Tacos made the event so much better. They have amazing tacos and quesadillas that are grilled fresh in the spot, unlike a catering service, which prepares food ahead of time. Overall the food was fresh and tasty, prices were very reasonable, and they were a pleasure to talk to. I would definitely recommend Big Boyz Tacos to anyone in San Diego. read more

I had used Big Boyz Tacos in the past and when my work needed tacos to celebrate our staff I knew who to call. They were great! And now they have way more options to add on and even have a non meat option for those who don't eat meat. The tacos were delicious! But Watermelon Agua Fresca was AMAZING!! That stole the show! We had Ruben Kenny David serving and they arrived with plenty of time to start serving from 1-4 and they made sure everyone ate from both nursing shifts! They were the best!Thank you guys so much! We can't wait to have you back!!! read more

We had a wonderful party using Big Boyz Taco - your food was delicious! But what I think made hiring your company even better is your customer service. Arthur was quick to respond (on the phone and via email). Ordering was simple and I loved your flexibility ... having no issue increasing our order size just 2 days before the party. Lastly, Mary & Gabby were great servers. They were on time, very quick to set up, super professional, and incredibly kind to my guests. I'll be sure to ask for them the next time I host and event. Many thanks! Annette read more

Big Boyz catered a graduation party for our daughter & it was wonderful. The team arrived early, set up a serving area, cooked tasty food, and served everyone right on time. Everything was delicious, seasoned well, and great quality. No nasty, fatty pieces of meat. All of our guests really loved it. The service team was courteous and efficient. Thanks, you made our party amazing!! read more

I was first introduced to Big Boyz Tacos (catering) when they participated as a vendor at a community event at the Promenade Park in Lemon Grove back in December 2018. We again experienced their food and catering service at another community event a few months later. After two positive experiences with them, I hired them to cater a business event for me in mid July 2019. That was a big success and so I have decided to hire them for my birthday party in a couple of months. Working with them is a breeze. They are very professional and very accommodating. The tacos are good. I encourage them to continue to expand their plant-based filling options for those of us who do not eat meat. read more

Gross. Had tacos here at Duck Foot in Miramar today as soon as they opened and they were cold and stale. If you're going to sell tacos in San Diego you need to at least try. Do not give these people your money. read more

Garbage Service!!! Needs to learn how to run a business!! Don't run out of food at an event...bad business!!!

The Carnitas is by far my favorite and combined with the flour tortilla it makes it insanely good. 10/10 recommend!

Went to a party past weekend Big Boyz was catering. The hostess was getting worried about their 4pm start up but they showed up wasted no time cooking I was first in line marinated pork was out of this world really enjoyed the beans & rice . No complaints from any party guest. read more

Tacos were great - we bought one of each: chicken, pork, and carne asada. The guacamole and salsa brought the taste together. We went back for a second round later. Service was friendly and polite. Since we were at Duckfoot Brewery, we asked about Gluten Free - of course corn tortillas are but they sell flour torilttas as well. They cleaned the grill before the making our order - huge thank you. read more

Great good, they were at the brewery next to my work place. Got 3 different tacos, adobada, chicken and carne asada. read more
