The best taco catering!!! All my guest couldn't stop talking about how good the tacos were! We will definitely be using him again in the future.

José and his awesome taco set up

We absolutely loved working with Tacos El Chove for our backyard party of about 50 people last weekend. The owner, José, is very easy to work with and very flexible. He normally serves tacos for two hours but was able to add on an extra hour for us for a great price. All our guests raved about the tacos and everyone went back for seconds and thirds. José showed up early to set up and had everything ready to go before guests even started arriving. His professionalism made our party so easy and fun for us hosts and memorable and delicious for our guests.

We booked Jose for our daughter's 1st birthday party this past Sunday. He arrived early to set up his work station. The food was great! We had about 35 adults and 10 children. We got lots of compliments on the food. The only reason he isn't getting 5 stars is he forgot to bring cheese to make quesadillas for the kids. We had several messages about the quesadillas prior to the party and he confirmed he could do them no problem. My husband had to leave the party to go to the store and buy cheese. Pretty disappointed about that but he did an awesome job otherwise. I would recommend him but make sure you remind him about any special requests.

We LOVED Tacos el Chove! Jose was amazing! His food was delicious and he was so professional. We had a great party thanks to him!

If you're looking for the BEST tacos around, look no further. Jose is your guy for all your taco catering needs. He's such a nice guy and depending on the number of guests, his wife might also be there to help! Jose is very professional, brings everything need so all you need to bring is a hungry appetite. We've had Jose cater our wedding shower and baby shower in 2018 and 2019. After both events, our guests raved about how delicious his food was and they left so full and happy. Fast forward to 2020 aka pandemic times. I attended my friend's 30th birthday and we were treated to none other than Jose's tacos! Jose wore a mask during cooking and serving and was sure to keep all areas clean. Everyone kept taking about how amazing the tacos were. I drool thinking about his tacos... Thank you Jose for all of the times you've fed us throughout the years! We can't wait for the next celebration when you can come serve us more tacos!

I'm sorry but tacos were NOT good. Some of the kids even threw away the tacos that they made them. I stuck with the horchata.

Ask the Community - Tacos El Chove

Hi - I called and left a voice mail? Are you available on 9/9/23?

Give me a call today anytime after 4pm.

How much space is needed for the taco catering set-up? Would like to have this in our backyard if possible.

12x12 is ideal but have done it in much tighter space.

Hi! Do u cater in Murrieta?

Yes I do.

Does this Taco Man caterer also make fish tacos? T.I.A.?

I don't think so. You could message him and ask though!

I really appreciate their professionalism and attention to detail. Andy even came before the event to scope out the space and do a dry run. Second, the food was amazing! We had a work event for 275 people. I continue to hear from coworkers how good the food was. You must order the roasted pig- the star of the show. We also had the island style fish and huli huli chicken. Highly recommend both. Loved the sides and the dessert was amazing! I could eat the banana bread with chocolate chips and coconut butter mochis every day. Yum. Thanks again for an amazing event!

I originally wanted them to cater my wedding and while we didnt quite go that direction, I loved them so much and wanted to support them so badly that I circled back with them for my DREAM rehearsal lunch. I had a crazy idea that I wanted to do a kamayan style lunch to celebrate my Filipino heritage and they were not only super onboard but even brought the flowers to bring it to life (unexpected and almost made me cry lol). Garlic Chicken, Lechon , Lumpia , Veggie Medley , Garlic Rice, Pancit - it was all SO GOOD. My family and friends told me they were drooling over it like 10 times before we could even give our thank you speech to start the meal - and once eaten, everyone RAVED and also kept asking where the food was from (which of course I raved about back). A huge mahalo to Khara who has been the sweetest soul and rock to lean on when bringing the vision to life , Morgan who stepped in with administrative coordination, Chef Andy of course for the DELICIOUS meal(s), and the whole Kalei's Kitchenette ohana. This will not be the last of me, my family, or my friends , so until next time! Thank you so much again!

She worked closely with me to make sure the menu accommodated the dietary needs of a very diverse group of guests, which I truly appreciated. She made the planning process so easy and stress-free. The food was absolutely delicious! We had a fantastic variety of dishes--from flavorful fajitas to savory meatballs--and everything was a hit with our guests. Adriana also prepared beautiful veggie and fruit platters that were just as impressive visually as they were fresh and tasty. On top of that, the portions were extremely generous, which we really appreciated. The staff who came to set up were equally wonderful. They were meticulous, organized, and took the time to clearly explain how to heat and serve everything so the food would be perfect throughout the event. If you're looking for catering for any event, I highly recommend Adriana's Cocina. The quality of the food, the professionalism, and the care Adriana puts into her work truly stand out. I plan to work with her for all of my future events--five stars honestly isn't enough. I would give more if I could!

Food and catering service were some of our highest priorities to get right during our wedding and Culinary Kitchen was phenomenal every step of the way. Our communication with Ashley and and JP before, during, and after the wedding was exceptional. From the very beginning, Ashley was very responsive and regularly checked in with us, which helped me feel less overwhelmed by all the catering decisions we needed to make. I tend to err on being extremely detail oriented and I asked tons of questions early on. Ashley was so patient and thorough with each email I had sent over even before booking. Before choosing our caterer, we did 3 different wedding caterer tastings and Culinary Kitchen easily was the best of all three (we're still thinking about the gochujang meatballs and the cavatappi pasta with fennel sausage!!). On our wedding day, the food service ran seamlessly and our guests often commented on how good the food was (guests were actually trying to sneak chicken tenders off the kids plates because even the kids meals were so good). Their team also helped us serve our desserts, did our bartending, and rented/placed all of our table settings, all at very reasonable prices as part of the entire catering package. The team also went above and beyond to accommodate all of our guests' special dietary needs while still helping us stay within budget and recommending a cohesive menu. One last thing - we did A LOT of research on different San Diego caterers before our wedding (I think we sent out inquiries to at least 10 other caterers) and Culinary Kitchen's catering packages felt the most "upscale" and comprehensive without leaving us feeling nickel and dimed for every line item. I truly felt like their team was on our side the whole way. THANK YOU Culinary Kitchen for catering our wedding day!! We wish you guys the best of success!

We did everything by email with Cassie in the beginning. We had a hard time choosing the food because the options were vast - like overwhelming almost. I finally chose "stir fry" because it was vegetarian and we also got a chicken option and some appetizers like salmon and charcuterie. The apps were delicious. The "stir fry" however was not. It was underwhelming to say the least. And it was so much food I felt like it was really thrown together. Soggy veggies. Limp ramen. I asked for pictures ahead of time so I could see what I was getting but nope they don't have pictures of their own food. Weird. The best part was Blanca who dropped off and picked up everything. She was really nice and helpful. Cassie the owner never reached out to confirm the party ahead of time and worse - didn't call to see how everything was afterward. This was over $1000 I spent on food for 24 people!!! I wish I had just gotten chipotle honestly. Pic is of the charcuterie that Blanca put together. People liked it and the mushroom purses too.
