So I rented this service for a celebration of life for, I told Gonzalo that I was having another taco vendor there as well. He said you should have just told us we could have accommodated up to 1000 people, but I didn't want any one to wait therefore the two vendors 2 lines. He said "I'm going to make you look good". Well in the end he failed the other vendors set up out shined theirs. They had way more options for the same price including aguas frescas more salsas and chips. They also had more man power to serve the people. This wasn't just my observation but everyone who attended. In addition I had paid Jaliscos mobile taco to serve food from 1:30-3:30 which they didn't. As soon I sent the Zelle at 2:40 included a $150 tip they cleaned up and left they were all cleaned up by 3:15. Goes to show you, don't pay them til the services are rendered. Well I hope this helps. My choice is Juanita's Tacos over Jaliscos Mobile taco grill any day. read more

The BEST taco team in LA! We had Jalisco's cater our wedding for more than 100 people, and they were a HUGE hit with all our guests. Gonsalo was great at communicating, and he and the entire team showed up to our venue ready to go. They had everything covered as far as all our venue's rules, and the appetizers were ready as soon as our cocktail hour started. They also kept the lines moving quickly and smoothly during the dinner reception. Our family and friends especially loved the elote station! Jalisco's was so great and easy to work with, and everyone they had staffing our wedding was friendly and helpful. We can't thank them enough! read more

I hired Gonsalo for my kid's birthday. He quoted me $750 initially then charged another $90 for guacamole, bringing the total to $840. I paid a $375 deposit, bringing the remaining balance to $465 to be paid after the event. He then sent me a $1,000 venmo request, which I paid in the midst of the party. While paying multiple other vendors and hosting- my mistake I wasn't paying much attention. I intended to Pay him $1k total including tip. After the party I remembered that I previously paid him $375 and basically overpaid him with a tip amounting to $535 which was not warranted. When I reached out and told him I mistakenly overpayed, he demanded to speak to my husband, saying my husband insisted he gets $1,000 when my husband had no clue I paid a deposit or how much anything was, as I organized the party, I hired Gonsalo and I paid him with my own money from my own Venmo account. My husband had no dealings with him. Not sure what he intended to gain from speaking to my husband. It's as if my husband has more authority than I do because I'm just a woman. Very sexist behavior. He has refused to send me back the overpayment and is keeping $535 of MY MONEY as a tip- A 64 PERCENT TIP!!!!!- which he claims he gets tips like this "all the time." Yeah right. I was shocked by his response and refusal to venmo me back money which he owed me because I told him I made a mistake. I'm now in the process of disputing the charge with Venmo. Bad business. Unprofessional. And not to mention, the food made several of my guests, including my elderly parents, sick the next day. Do yourself a favor and find a vendor who does the right thing when issues arise. I have thrown hundreds of events and never in my life have I had an issue with a vendor. I already know Gonsalo is going to try to gaslight me with his response based on his comments to other negative reviews, but I have the receipts and texts and I will post them if need be. WELL GONSALO RESPONDED LIKE I THOUGHT HE WOULD- NO ACCOUNTABILITY, SPEWING LIES AND GASLIGHTING PEOPLE FEOM THE PARTY WHO LEFT NEGATIVE REVIEWS. Here's my response to your response, Gonsalo: You should've never asked my husband for payment to begin with. Your contract was with me; he didn't know what was going on! I didn't say I'm the boss I said I was in charge - which I was! And guess what, I'm in charge of my bank account too and you were paid by ME, not my husband. Both my husband and I did want to give you a nice tip but not $535, which you insisted on keeping despite me telling you it was sent by mistake. You still haven't returned it when I am telling you it was sent in ERROR! I never threatened that my friends would leave bad reviews! STOP LYING. My exact words were, and I quote directly from texts , " So you either send me $375 now back or I'm disputing the entire charge with my bank and negative reviews will be blasted." And I have every right to blast negative reviews on any platform for you being a dishonest human! I never said I was an attorney and you'd regret it! My exact words in response to your demand to speak to my husband like I was a child were and I quote, " You deal with me! Im not some random wifey. Im an attorney. And I made a mistake in the thick of a party." No threats were made! You're Lying again! Bad reviews from people at my party are warranted as people got upset stomachs, including my parents who had diarrhea all of the following day! Your misappropriating funds from me certainly motivated them to go out of their way to leave a review, but people getting sick is 100 percent true. I was not one of those people, but I barely ate. Now Gonsalo is attacking all the people leaving reviews from my party claiming they're liars saying that I'm mad about the tip my husband gave him. MY HUSBAND DID NOT TIP HIM OR PAY HIM A DIME! I paid for everything and overpaid by mistake! Photo attached of my Venmo! Finally, don't pull this "people with money" trying to ruin a hard working family business sob story! We too are small business owners. My husband and I both came from nothing and built our lives with hard work! No help from anyone and we support our parents too. Don't presume you can wrongly take a single dollar from me just because you think we have money! Shame on you. It's about principle! You could've just paid the extra money back, kept your 20 percent tip and moved on. And now here we are because you aren't a reasonable person! It didn't need to come to this but when a customer tells you they overpaid you make it right! YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO A TIP- TIPS ARE OPTIONAL! You didn't deserve a 64 percent tip but you took it anyway. read more

Jaliscos Mobile Taco Grill - Great set up at the park! These tacos were a huge hit! - Caterers Near Me

I wasn't too happy with the quality of the food or the service. I won't use them again. We switched taco guys this year to Jaliscos and thought we had upgraded but what a mistake. Gristle in the meat, the chicken had tumeric (?), and we threw out the red salsa because it was so bad. read more

Fantastic! Exactly what we were looking for - simple GOOD tacos and quesadillas. Already a regular customer

From the moment I reached out to Gonsalo he was very great with communication. After discussing what I was looking for and the type of event I planned on having, I decided to hire them to serve my event. Jalisco's mobile tacos did not disappoint. Food was amazing, our guests really enjoyed the food and service. The grill masters at our event were always attentive and professional. Thank you gonsalo for the great food and great service. Would highly recommend them for your next event. read more

Jaliscos catered our wedding and were fabulous in every way. Gonazalo is so easy to work with, their prices are affordable, the tacos are delicious, and they provide top-notch service. Let me reiterate, the tacos are DELICIOUS. Everyone at our wedding commented on how good they were! Jaliscos also provides cocktail servers who are efficient and stealth. I barely even knew they were there, and everything was clean and tidy at the end of the night! You will absolutely not go wrong hiring Jaliscos for your wedding. Trust me, your guests will thank you! read more

We hired Jaliscos Mobile Taco Grill for late night tacos at our wedding on 5/29/22 in Malibu. We booked with Gonsalo in September 2021 (about 9 months before our wedding), so you can imagine how important the tacos were to us. We arranged for salmon, veggie, chicken, and carne asada and made it very clear that we could not have pork or shellfish due to religious restrictions. Gonsalo's prices were reasonable and we agreed that he would start cooking around 10pm for the "late night" snack once dessert was officially served. The weeks leading up to our wedding, it was nearly impossible to reach him. We got nervous so started thinking of other ways to reach out... we noticed on his venmo that he had a charge for the same day of our wedding which was very alarming. We finally got through via Instagram and he assured us that all was good and he had talked to our planner. Anyway, night of the wedding comes and he texted my husband (WHO WAS GETTING MARRIED) around 8 pm (after he was supposed to be there to set up) telling him that he was stuck in traffic in Santa Monica (yup, that's where the other venmo deposit came from) and he wasn't going to be able to make it until 10... Not only that, but he also demanded an additional $300 for him to actually come to the wedding since the traffic was bad. WHAT?! He finally arrives at the venue past 10:00 and won't take his gear across the lawn... instead wants to set up in the DRIVEWAY of the venue where the valet is... He charged my father an additional $200 TO WALK ACROSS THE FREAKING LAWN! He finally starts cooking after this mess... all of us trying to ignore the fact that he's totally ripping us off.... BUT THEN COOKS PORK!!!!! AFTER WE EXCPLICITLY TOLD HIM WE CANNOT HAVE PORK AT THIS WEDDING. We reached out to Gonsalo the following day to express our frustrations and he was not apologetic at all. Did not offer a refund or even apologies for the fact that he charged us 50% of what we were already paying just to freaking come to our wedding after we had already paid him in full... and the fact that he cooked a religiously prohibited dish at our wedding. If I could give 0 stars I would. Too bad because we were really excited about the tacos and heard the amazing reviews which is why we booked in the first place. Lesson learned. read more

We reserved Jalisco's Taco Grill for our day-after-wedding brunch 7 months in advance. We paid a $250 deposit. Gonsalo, the owner, assured us that everything would be taken care of, when we checked in with him the week before the event . On the day of the brunch, Jalisco's was nowhere to be found. We had 50 people show up and nothing to feed them. He had put the wrong date on our contract. Thankfully we had a beverage caterer who was kind enough to run down to the local Whole Foods and grab a bunch of pastries for our hungry guests. Of course, we let him know immediately that there was an issue and we wanted a refund. For the past five months, he's been telling us he'd return our deposit "by the end of the week," "next Tuesday," "at the end of the month," etc. We've been patient. Honestly, we've waited and waited for him to right this wrong. Now, we've said goodbye to the money, but want to warn others. I wish we had a chance to taste the food - we were REALLY looking forward to it. And I'm sure he and his team are nice people. They're just not that great at business, I guess. read more

I hired Jaliscos Mobile Taco Grill for my birthday party. First of all, the owner made the booking process super quick and simple. The tacos were a hit and everyone loved them - very delicious.

I just had Jaliscos Mobile Taco Grill cater my event last Saturday and to say it was a hit, is an understatement!! Not only was the food seasoned to perfection and mouthwatering delicious, the service was second to none. Gonsalo was extremely responsive and very personable. Julio and Dina (the chefs that came) were so kind and outgoing. I will definitely utilize Jaliscos for all my taco catering needs in the future! We had to ration out the leftovers, because it was that good!! My family is already requesting more. Thank you all so much!! read more

Jaliscos Mobile Taco Grill is NOT good for business. The Guy was rude to my co-worker, temperamental and was only there for 30 minutes. It obvious that he only cared about collecting paycheck this is not how you bring in client his assistant was at least nice. If you want catered Taco just go to King Taco!! read more

We scheduled Jaliscos Mobile Taco Grill for a company function (Employee Appreciation Lunch). He did not arrive at the time scheduled and when we called to check his status he stated is would be arrive two hours after scheduled time. When told that this was not satisfactory, he stated that "his hands were tied". DO NOT USE THIS VENDOR. Very disappointed and will NOT be using them again. It's too bad because the tacos are pretty good. read more

Where do I start. I found this business awhile ago on instagram, and omg I do NOT regret it. What caught my attention was the elote bar, all I wanted for my wedding was tacos & elote. If I couldn't get married in Mexico, I was going to bring Mexico to my wedding and these guys were spot on. Not only is their food delicioso, but the way they present the food is beautiful! Fit my theme perfectly. They are great at communicating, they drove to my wedding which wasn't too close to where they are from but they were amazing! So friendly, so great to work with & my guests were SO happy. Especially my husband & I! Book them!! read more

I helped host my niece baby shower. Unfortunately, we had to find a taco caterer two weeks before the event because the one we were going to contract couldn't do the event for us. I desperately started looking for a replacement on the internet to only feel discouraged because no one was picking up the phone or you had to send an email for a quote. When I came across Mobile Taco Grill, I called and Gonsalo picked up right away. I explained to him my dilemma with this baby shower. I further explained the importance of it because my family and niece's BFF wanted to make it extra especial for her as it was her first born and her mom (my sister) was in Heaven. Gonsalo went out of his way to assure that he would accommodate our event and he would make sure the food would be great. Brian and Juan (the servers) were great! Very personable and kind with great customer service. The food was awesome! Everyone at the party raved about the food as well! I told Gonsalo, I would be using his company for my taco catered events as well as other people who came to the event stated the same! Thank you Mobile Taco Grill for making my niece's baby shower a memorable event!!! Thank you again for coming to my rescue!! Beatriz read more

I had the magic here at my last Halloween Party & doing it again this year. Weeeheee Food was great,tasty & most went back for 3rds. Gonsalo & the guys they felt like they were apart of the party & made it even more fun. Showed up on time. Cleaned up Perfectly. You will not be disappointed you'll be thrilled. read more

Just prepare your mouth for the yummiest authentic street-style tacos. We had Jaliscos provide food for a pre-wedding party of about 60 guests this weekend and Gonsalo and his wife came early, set up their grill and salsa table under a large white canopy. Everything is so clean--they even bring a floor pad to protect your driveway or patio from spills. We wanted to do a few little extras--like offer Peach-Mango Salsa in addition to their 5 custom salsas (they were awesome) and they happily brought a 6th cool serving bowl to match their set and we provided the Peach-Mango Salsa. Perfect. We also wanted to use Palm eco-plates and bamboo forks, which I bought from Amazon, and they looked fab and held up to the hearty food no problem. The guests got 3 tacos, rice and beans and could choose between pork, beef, and chicken tacos and we also asked for a vegetarian option as well. Gonsalo said: no problem! The couple also made Salsa suggestions to the diners so we could mix and match our toppings to best effect. Needless to say, our guests' taste buds were blown and everyone went back for seconds. Even then, we had enough food to take home (a few) leftovers. So even now, after the glow of the party, I can honestly say the food was tender, spiced to perfection and juicy. I was extra careful to reconnect with them a couple of times as our party approached, to confirm start times, and so on. But they got their early, set up quickly, and served food for two hours which was the perfect amount of time for our crowd. read more

We hired Jaliscos to cook up their delicious tacos for our guests at our wedding as a fun late-night food and they killed it! The planning was simple and straightforward, and very reasonably priced. They showed up on time and set up quickly and quietly. They were incredibly professional and everything was clean and inviting, and the staff were so friendly! They had some of their own decor, which looked great, but most importantly the food was delicious! We didn't get to eat too much (the classic lament of the bride and groom - too busy greeting guests) but what we did eat was fantastic and all our guests agreed. I'd fully recommend Jalisco's to anyone considering hiring them! read more

Jaliscos catered my wedding as a late-night food option and it was awesome. They were really easy to work with, and had the best price of all the tacos places I called. They brought everything they needed, and the light-up "tacos" sign they had was so cute! Tacos were super good and they gave us all the leftovers which lasted us days. I would definitely hire them again! read more

Our company wanted to celebrate our 12 year birthday, so we hired Jaliscos after a search for the best mobile tacos in LA. Definite win.

Would definitely order again. read more

We had Jalisco's cater tacos for our wedding. Great service, prices and tacos! We had a 150 people and it took a little while to get the line going through, but it wasn't too much of wait.

Jalisco's Mobile Taco Grill saved my husband's surprise birthday party! They really did. I originally had SOHO Gourmet Taco Truck booked for this last Saturday BUT they had miss-booked and thought my event was on Sunday. Needless to say I was in a panic Friday morning when I had a party the next day and no caterer for the event. I must have called every taco man, truck, van, grill in the 909, 562, 818, 951, 213, 626, 714. On my last desperate call, I reached Jalisco's spoke with Gonsalo and with the love of the Taco Gods, Jalisco's had a cancelation and were able to take me LAST MINUTE. I was beyond thankful. Service was great, even when they were running a bit late, I got a text about it. They stayed longer to make up time and from the beginning to end they were super nice! We had a smaller party (20 count) so imagine all that was left over from our read more

Holy Robin to the Taco Mobile?! You a taco, me a taco, everyone has taco taco! Ok enough with my lame taco references. Let's talk Taco's shall we? Why do I love these guys? First, they're on time, second HELLO the answer is in their name "Taco." Needless to say my maid of honor hired these guys for my bridal shower and they were a hit?! They showed up way in advance, started grilling and got the party started! What's great is everything here tastes great, fresh and abosolutely amazing. Their pricing is awesome! The guys that showed up had a great sense of humor and great thing about them? All the fixings that they brought to us?! The great salsas and my goodness, their hotchata was the best I've ever ever tasted! You should hire these guys just for their sense of honor and pride in their awesome tacos! You won't regret it I promise! read more

I used Jaliscos' Tacos today, all positive remarks on food, service, and presentation. I had called over 8 other catering companies and Gonsalo was the only one to call answer on the first attempt. We discussed the reviews that were of a low rating and after was more than satisfied of the circumstances. All the guests were blown away by the savory-ness of the salsa and the seasoning of the meat. Very much impressed, I would use them again! read more

Very disappointed with Gonsalo. I made a reservation with him 2 weeks prior to my event. He was so quick charge my card for the deposit of $310 within 15 minutes of getting my card info. On the day of the event, when he didn't show up 20 minutes into their prep hour, I gave Gonsalo a call to check in. He wanted to act like I was wrong for asking him where he was because we had a reservation. That's when he realized he had completely forgot about this reservation and was an absolute NO SHOW. He had no idea that he was supposed to be at this event. What's more disappointing is that I had gotten his referral from Kaiser Permanente employees. He offered no explanation other than he forgot to put the event in his calendar. Unacceptable. It's not how you run a business. It's not a good look when folks are paying a good price for your service and the vendor just forgets. I am a small business owner myself. It's NOT ok. What's worst is when you talk to him, he acts very proper and is very reassuring that everything will be handled by him. Obviously not the case. He makes himself look like a liar. Best he did was to give me my money back and offer $200 credit. But that doesn't even cover the deposit you're supposed to put down just to make the reservation. Jaliscos Mobile Taco Grill is not the way to go. read more
