Jose was absolutely amazing to work with and the food was INCREDIBLE! I couldn't recommend more. He was able to accommodate our party on short notice and had an amazing set up. The meat was seasoned perfectly - we even had a picky eater in the group and he said it was the best chicken he's ever had! Will definitely be booking again. read more

Taco's El Chove (Jose) - Thank you for the great food at our birthday event! My cousin and I celebrated our 50th birthday last night 12/30. We had 45-50 people at the party. We knew we wanted a "Taco guy" but we did not have any referrals or suggestions. I looked on Yelp and found Tacos El Chove. As I read the positive reviews, I took the chance and hired him. Jose was fairly priced, highly responsive, and his tacos were excellent! Jose made carne, chicken, and pastor proteins, rice, beans, and aqua fresco. Again, the food was excellent. In fact, the business where we had our event is interested in hiring Tacos El Chove for their future events. Long story short - if you are searching for a "taco guy" and run across Tacos El Chove in Yelp. Trust the reviews (like I did), trust my review and book Jose! David read more

Got this quote for 25 people: $450 This is what I include Rice & Beans, Chips, Carne asada, Pollo asado, Adobada And all the fixings for your tacos, Salsas Red & Green, Guacamole, Cilantro Radish, Onions, Limes. Glad I received a response, but personally think it's a lot for catering a lunch for 25 people. Ended up finding a better option for $300. read more

Jose was very professional and offered me almost the same as f I were to bring home trays for guests to serve themselves...except it was SO much better!!! And SO much nicer!!! He responded to my texts and emails promptly, explained everything to me when inquiring about his offer, was patient and gave suggestions. I hired Jose to serve a taco bar for a small afternoon wedding reception. He arrived early to set up and start to cook. He brought everything he would need including cooking and serving tables, plastic ware, plates, a couple of salsas, beverage and cups, and it all looked so nice. Everyone was very happy with our choice. And he boxed up the leftovers for us to take home. I would absolutely hire Tacos El Chove if you want to impress your guests. Thank you Jose! read more

Fantastic experience!!! Wonderful customer service, beautiful set up, lovely interaction, and delicious food! 10/10, would absolutely hire again, and all our family was asking for the information for future parties. read more

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. read more

Jose provided what most people at our party for 35 people thought was among the best Mexican food they've had! Delicious tacos, quesadillas and mulitas with all the trimmings and guacamole, including Agua Fresca. He was on time and a very gracious cook/server, highly recommended!!! read more

Amazing service, great quality food and very efficient. I highly recommend to everyone. Thank you Jose.

Jose was great. Showed on time and did everything what he said. Good tacos and for reasonable price. Recommended! read more

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. read more

Tacos El Chove - José and his awesome taco set up - Caterers Near Me

See all

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.

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. read more

Did a cast party for me after my last show. Great food and TONS of left overs that they packed up. Highly recommend!

Jose is AMAZING! I have been to quite a few taco parties and have hired several taco caterers myself but Tacos El Chove is by far the best I've experienced when it comes to mobile taco catering companies for a taco party. First let me start by saying that his tacos are DELICIOUS as are his rice, beans, Agua Fresca and salsas. Compared to other companies, Jose's set up looks so professional. All of the accompaniments are displayed beautifully. As owner of the company, Jose is responsive, friendly and flexible. I had to reschedule my taco party due to inclement weather followed by a long construction delay to repair a roof rain leak and he allowed me to rebook 7 months later. All of my guests raved about how great Jose and his food was. I can't recommend him highly enough!!! I'd give him 10 stars if I could. read more

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! read more

Man they were so amazing. All 80 people had so many good things to say. Going to use them again.

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! read more

He was perfect. Showed up 30 minutes early and stayed almost an hour extra. Tacos were fresh and warm the whole time. Got a lot of compliments on his aqua fresca (pineapple and cucumber). I would recommend Jose over traditional catering. read more

I highly recommend Tacos El Chove. First of all, Jose was fast to respond and answered all of my questions prior to the party. He was friendly, professional, and provided everything that was needed to feed our 30+ guests. The tacos, quesadillas, rice, beans, nachos, and agua fresca were all a big hit. In fact, my daughter is sitting next to me while I write this review and she wanted to make sure that I told everyone that Jose's carne asada and pork tacos were incredibly delicious and she wishes that she could eat them every day. The price was extremely reasonable and Jose brought more than enough food. We definitely would hire Tacos El Chove again to cater any event. read more

My wife and I were going to have my son's birthday party catered by them this weekend, but due to the corona virus we had to cancel. We asked for a refund for our deposit since it wasn't our fault we had to cancel, it was state mandated, and we were told we would not get our $150 dollars back. My wife asked many times and we were shut down everytime we asked. This isn't a great way to do business, if he asked to work with us, then we would have, but he refused to work with us. read more

Boy did we luck out finding Jose! Booked him 2 days before our sons birthday! Some of the best tacos we've all EVER had, everyone was raving about his food the entire time. Thanks for everything Jose, especially coming on such short notice! read more

Jose did an amazing job catering tacos plus accompaniments for our private event at a local winery. He was courteous and pleasant to work with, and his tacos were amazing. We had to change our estimate for number of guests down slightly in the days before our event, and he happily adjusted our estimate to accommodate the revised guest number. He was prompt and cleaned up everything. Make sure you check out his custom made grill set up. It's pretty cool! Will definitely use Tacos El Chove again. read more

It was great. Everything was as advertised. Food was tasty and fresh and served the whole party and more

He and I received kudos about the food throughout the evening, and impressing 40+ guests is no small feat! Thank you again, Jose, for your fantastic food and service.
