I hired Roy taquiza for my daughters bday in the IE, and tacos were a hit. I messaged Roy last minute and he was able to cater my party last minute. The meats i ordered were al pastor, chicken , asada and they were all good quality. The salsas were very good too. The only thing i can say that was not good was the lemonade it did not have a good flavor it was bitter; other than that i highly recomment Roy taquizas they were punctual and great customer service!! read more

I asked some information and they did respond but then they Stoped responding. I really wanted to get them but they havent gotten back to me if they are available or not, it will be courteous to at least say Yes or No. Since July 27, now its aug 1 and still no response. Very Rude read more

Email: royruiz88@gmail.com For now, Roy Taquizas is strictly catering only. They DO NOT have a store front or a "truck." Our company recently contacted them to cater to one of our events. They showed up promptly and started cooking right away. You do not have to do anything except have space for them to set up their equipment. With your catering items of choice, they will provide you with Mexican rice, beans, macaroni salad, 1 big jar of aqua fresca, variety of salsas and condiment bar, plates, cups, napkins, and utensils. Truly, you do not have to do anything except pay the man. We chose the option to have the beef (carne asada), chicken (pollo), al pastor (marinated pork), and chorizo as our meat selections for our tacos. The tortillas are small and made out of corn. Your guests just line up and can order whatever they want. Everything was cooked right in front of us and the line although long at times went by swiftly. You just add all the toppings and condiments on your own. Our plates were tipping over by the time we were done scooping all the goodies onto or next to our tacos (wherever there was space left on our plates). In addition to the tacos mentioned, they also can serve up bacon wrapped hot dogs, quesadillas, pupusas, birrias (Mexican meat stew), and veggie burgers for you non-carnivores. I also believe they have meat options for your tacos upon request, but you should probably contact Roy and find out. As for pricings, it's really not too bad. From their menu: 50 people for the four taco meat selections: $350, don't forget it includes all the stuff that comes standard with it. For 75 people: $390. There are more options to meddle with but you need to contact them to find out exactly what you need and how much you're willing to spend. As for the quality of the food, it was fresh and got our taste buds kicking. Personally, I enjoyed the chicken tacos the most. The Mexican drink they provided was a nice touch and almost like a dessert drink. Everything was quite satisfying overall. So if you're looking to cater your next taco party, consider Roy's Taquizas to do the work for you. I think they're based out of the Long Beach area but they seem like they are willing to drive out for the job. read more

We just had Roy cater our wedding because we both love tacos. It was a bit of a gamble to just go with someone we found on yelp, but he was really quick to respond to our emails and was super friendly. Overall, I got a good vibe. Because it was going to be a larger event (for 200 people) we wanted to taste the tacos before our big day. He set it all up and we were able to taste the taco meats and 2 aguas frescas. Value wise, the amount he quoted us included 2 aguas frescas, all the taco trimmings we needed (salsas, chopped onions, cilantro, beans, rice, and a macaroni salad, napkins, etc). He came all the way to East Los Angeles, set up, and took care of all our taco needs without us having to worry about it. So we could take care of all the other little things (that add up)! So in regards to the food we didn't have to stress at all! Simply put, Roy's Tacos are great & he and his family are awesome people! read more

We had Roys Tacos for our sons graduation party and they were awesome ! They came early to set up and everything was prepared on time and it was all delicious and fresh! The best tacos and the best service !!!!! I highly recommend them !!!! read more

I hired Roy's Taquiza to cater my husband's Birthday party for about 50 people back in September and I'm still hearing compliments from my guests. The food was excellent, presentation was great from the condiments bar, aguas frescas, pupusas, tacos and hot dogs wrapped in bacon. Roy and his staff are very professional. He did all he said he would and beyond. Defiditely exceeded my expectations. I would certainly recommend him and would hire him again! read more

We hired Roy's Taquizas for my sister's graduation and 25th birthday party. Needless to say, my family and I were all IMPRESSED with both the food and the service! It was a roll of a dice picking Roy's over another taco man a family friend had recommended, but this roll was a winner, as I was not disappointed at all. For about $500 we had 4 meats (carne asada, al pastor, chicken, and chorizo), agua fresca (we chose horchata), rice, beans, macaroni salad, salsa bar and the highlight...BACON-WRAPPED HOT DOGS, which were a major hit at our party. The food was seasoned perfectly and it was not greasy at all. They also provide utensils, plates, and condiments in the package. Our "taco man" that evening was Joshua and he was just THE best taco man we've ever had at a family party. Being Filipino, half of our family and friends always come Filipino time which is at least an hour later than the invitation time. Joshua was so nice to offer to stay a bit longer when he saw some of our relatives coming in late to the party. Our family really appreciated that. The presentation of the food was also presented in a neat manner. He also cleaned up his station so neatly you never would have guessed he was cooking there. Our family could not stop raving about how good the food was and how awesome the service was. While Joshua served us at our party, Roy was the person who I spoke with to set everything up and discuss the party packages. Roy was great. He always promptly returned my calls and was very professional. Our family has found our go-to taco man. We will definitely hire Roy's Taquizas again in a heart beat! read more

Hired Roy's Taquizas for a Bridal Shower after finding them on Yelp! Best decision I took... (not one to "try" something unknown, specially for an event). Guests raved about how delicious the tacos were and the things it included (mac salad, rice, beans, grilled onions, etc) Roy is great! Great service, great food... DEF A WIN! :) Recommended Roy's to friends and they will be hiring his services as well.... So will I! read more

Roy is the man! I hired another taco man for my sons party and they cancelled last minute. I gave Roy a call and he was here within the hour. The food was outstanding! Most taco men go cheap on the meat, but it was more than we could feed. He had a ton of extra as well as it being so delicious where every one had to go back for 2nds and 3rds. He not only had delicious tacos, but he busted out quesadillas and street dogs. His green salsa is amazing as well. Highly recommend. My company uses him all the time for work events after the party as well as many of my family referrals. A+++ read more

HORRIBLE! They wrecked my whole party! They canceled on ME last minute, so unprofessional. Just because I didn't call the day prior. I had called them more than enough times to confirm the date of my party. The day of my party I was waiting on them to come at 3. By 3:30 I was nervous and calling them frantically. After 1 hour and a half they call me back to tell me that since I didn't call them the day before, they decided to cancel my order without even telling me. Btw I have 100 people to feed, and all we have are appetizers and sodas. So I am going a bit crazy, but thankfully Costco saves the day. I didn't get to really enjoy my son's birthday because of this catering service, but he had a good time and thats what counts. Anywho, I would STRONGLY advise you NOT to hire these people. Definitely the WORST taco man/ catering service out there!! They also do not take responsibility for their mistakes which makes it even more Frustrating!! BTW I am not the first person to have this problem.. OlLIVIA M. also had this problem( apparently I looked at all the positive feedback and overlooked her comment. Please DON'T make the same mistake as me.) read more

Horrible!! I had used Roy once for my daughters 1st birthday and I had no problems at all. So we decided to call him again for her 3rd birthday.. BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER!! We booked him 2 1/2 weeks in advance and he agreed to everything. We talked to him about 3 times that week. The night before the party we tried calling him and we got no answer. We left a message and he didn't return our call. The day of the party we called several time and all our calls went unanswered. He had agreed to come at 4:30 and he never showed up. I had a party full of hungry people with no food to give them. We found another taco man last minute. LOS ESTRADAS KNOCKOUT CATERING they saved the day after Roy ruined my daughters party. That is no way to do business. I suggest you look somewhere else because this guy is unprofessional & unreliable. read more

We hired Roy's Tacos for our sons birthday party. We were having a party with 50 guests. 2 1/2 weeks prior to the party we hired Roy's Tacos they said they would be there at our party at 12:00 to start setting up and they would serve tacos at 1:00. The day of the party 12:00 comes around and NO TACO GUY!!!!!!! I had a little over 50 HUNGRY guests at my party waiting for the food to arrive . I was so embarrassed I had all these guests at my party and no food to offer them . I kept calling the taco guy to see where they we're at and no answer . It took them over an 1 1/2 to return my call. They said there was a mix up and that they were at the original location where were having the party . Which was a lie because I had given them the new address to where we having the party at . I was told ok they would be there at the new address . The lady finally shows up over 2 1/2 hours into my party . This is a very unprofessional business that they run . They have no integrity and don't care about their customers . I'm sure this isn't the last time they will do something like this . read more

I e-mailed Roy to ask for prices and I really liked it that he answered promptly, I started asking specific questions such like if there are more meat options, if kids counted, and if he still offered hot dogs in the package. it's been 3 days and he hasn't answered. It sucks because I really need a taquiza catering but Roy is too busy to even answer questions, at least i didnt get stood up in front of all my guests. read more

Roy's is the best! Awesome pupusas and the bacon wrapped hot dogs are amazing. I also ordered Horchata from them and it is one of the best I've ever had. I love that he responds quickly and is super accommodating. They arrived on time and all my guests loved them! read more

Amazing tacos good people. Chicken was my favorite wifey loved the carnitas and pigs feet. Good stuff

Hired them for my baby girl's 1st bday and the food was great. Taco cart was clean and organized. My guests all raved about how good the tacos tasted and some even took tacos to go. I will be calling them for our next event. read more

I found Roy's Taquiza here on Yelp last minute for an event and Roy was able to accommodate my family and come out to our event. The taco guy was great and had great customer service. The tacos were amazing to say the least my favorite was the chorizo. Now I come from a family of picky eaters and they had nothing but good feedback about the food. We will be using Roy's Taquiza from now on for all of our events and you guys should too! Thanks Roy. read more

Had him come cater my fiance's 30th bday party at a bowling alley. He was incredibly accommodating, easy going, he came to the event early, and the food was delicious!! He was a huge hit, everyone loved it! Would for sure use him again for catering and will refer him to others. Thanks again, Roy! read more

Frito Lay hired them for the Mexico game at the Rose bowl and everyone that came to our RV loved the tacos. We will definitely hire them again real soon read more

Roy catered our event last week. The event itself was a huge hit and we owe a lot of that to Roy and his great cooking. The tacos, beans, rice, and macaroni were delicious. I would recommend him to anyone. Will definitely use him in the future for future events. read more

We used Roy's Taquiza and it was amazing! Roy showed up 30 min early and stayed for 3 hrs as promised. Brought 4 meats, rice, beans, watermelon agua fresca and all the fixings. Everyone loved it, and the kids were asking for more tacos the next morning. Great service. Will definitely be using them again soon! Very easy to deal with and confirmed everything via text. So easy and delicious! read more

The food and service was excellent. I hired them to do my sons baptism, everything was perfect. They showed up on time , they provided everything, great service. All my guest where extremely happy with the delicious food and couldn't get enough of it. read more

Hands Down Best tacos & Popusas!!! I hired them for my Sons 2nd Bday and I'm so glad tht I did. Popusas were a HIT!!! Next time I will hire them just for Popusas since those were the ones I ran out of first! They came and set up really early and served all my people for 3 hours. They include your choice of Agua which is awesome! I highly recommend them to everyone! For 70 people I spent $460.00 not bad at all. read more

We had a short notice change of plan for my son's graduation party. Roy was available so we booked him. The food was excellent, super high quality meat perfectly seasoned---not the cheap stuff. And the bacon-wrapped hot dogs were perfect, a total hit with the teenagers. Roy and Carmen were very nice, arrived early and made everything so easy for me. Thank you! read more

I'm not sure what version of their catering service I recieved but I will never do business with them again. I booked a catering service for a 100 people and made it so easy for them that I only needed 2 meats instead of the 3 they provide. I spoke with owner twice in same week of event too confirm we'd have enough food for 100 people and that everything was on track for our 80th birthday party for our mother,I didn't want any glitches or problems on day of event being this was a big family day and milestone for us. Caterer who only spoke spanish showed up,prepped meats,was to serve food from 6pm to 9pm,started serving roughly 50 to 60 guest at 6pm and exactly 6:26pm into serving he was out of Rice and beans and almost out of mac salad. He only had 1 small foil tray for each item. When my guests told him all he did was raise his hand in a whatever oh well manner to them. I was livid and immediately called owner who didn't care what so ever about the problem. I had to send a brother out to local mexican resturant to immediately buy a large tray of beans and rice to feed the guests and guests still do to arrive.Which took 45 minutes into party to get since resturant did big favor to get done as fast as possible since we didn't order such a large amount ahead of time. It was a horrible aggrivating experience and owner Roy was so ridiculous and unreasonable when we deducted the cost of food we had to buy for rest of evening,he argued with us over phone for over 45 minutes which kept us from enjoying my mothers cake and event. We've had plenty of tacomen in the past for events and been served at parties and never would have ever imagined this kind of treatment or poor planning and service from one. One of biggest part of an event is the food!. Never again with these people! read more

WARNING TO EVERYONE!!!!!! ALL the bad reviews about this catering service are true!!!! I hired them for my sons birthday party. I spoke with them over the phone two weeks prior to my sons party . They told me they we're available on the day and time I wanted . I was having a party with a little over 50 guests . We had spoken over the phone a couple of times over that 2 week period , they had e mailed me an invoice, I even e mailed them 2 days prior to the day of the party to confirm that they will be there . I was told 2 days before that yes they will be there. They we're supposed to start setting up at 12 and serving at 1. The day of my party 12:00 and NO TACO GUY!!!!! I was calling to see where they we're they took over an hour and a half to return my call. When they finally answered, I was told they we're at the original location where I was having the party . Which I don't know why , I text them to let them know we had changed locations . I received a text back saying ok they had the new address . The lady finally showed up about 2 1/2 hours into my party . I think they just over booked and never had intentions of showing up to my party , HORRIBLE way to run a business !!!!!!!!!!! read more

WARNING!! Do not use this guy! We booked him for our daughter's 3rd birthday party for October 10th which he confirmed but NEVER showed up. I've never dealt with someone who is so unprofessional. He never called or responded to our phone calls, messages, or texts. You will be taking a HUGE risk if you deal with this guy. read more

I called and the guy was not very enthusiastic. Kept cutting off and I told him I couldn't hear and he started to give attitude. From what I read on the other reviews it scares me to even hire them. Definitely not calling back! read more

Needless to say it looks like Roy's Taquizas has a reputation for not showing up. We hired him for a family member's Celebration of Life and at 1:00, with about 50 guests, we were missing the taco guy. Even after numerous confirmations, he NEVER SHOWED UP!!!! After multiple attempts at trying to contact him, in which he kept sending to voicemail, we ended up picking up Subway. As if him not showing up wasn't bad enough, we are also out $200 for the permit and insurance that we had to pay in order to have him cater our party at the park. Please, save yourself the frustration and DO NOT HIRE Roy's Taquizas! read more

Called for a quote the person that answered the phone didn't provide info. As I was asking for a quote he interrupted and said he would call me in a couple of minutes-never called me back lack of professionalism ... Smh read more

Roy's is awesome!! The staff and food quality are top notch!! I hosted a birthday party for my 5 year old and we had about 80 people with kids and adults. The food was awesome quality and the staff is so accommodating. They kept checking in with me to insure that I was happy and the guests enjoyed the service. The only hang up was that I got a different drink than I ordered but the guests enjoyed it anyway. Communication can also be a little better pre-event. Party planning is a little stressful & I have never hired a caterer before so having the ongoing communication lines open was important to insure things were taken care of. Overall it all went well and I would hire them again without a second thought. I will also refer Roy's as my number one choice for taco catering! I got several compliments from my guests about how good the food was. I am sure there is more business to come your way Roy's thank you so much!!! read more

My family had them cater my birthday to my taste. Buche, asada & chicken. All very savory & tasty. Rice & beans, some aguas, plus all the fixings... No complaints, a lot of 2nds & 3rds. They come in on time, setup & take down. No problems. If you love your mom's cooking & kill for authenticity then this is all you need. read more

Best tacos and service in town! We have had other "taco guys," but none have we continued to hire back, like Roy's Taquizas! We've hired them for three occasions and always our guests are happy and asking them to do their parties! We are a big family and there are always events, we will continue to hire Roy's Taquizas to help us celebrate! read more

Amazing Food - Great Service - Professionalism on point. Very organized and clean. Did I mention the food was delicious...... will definitely hire this catering service for future parties/gatherings. Best decision we made. read more
