My friends and I quickly stopped by Tacos El Sazón Oaxaqueño for a few tacos after dining at In-N-Out next door. I had a chance to try out an al pastor and cabeza taco. The line was considerably long around 7:30 p.m. so it took a while for us to order and receive our food. I like that the tacos here are single tortilla -- as opposed to double tortillas, so the filling to tortilla ratio feels a lot more balanced. For both tacos, the meat is incredibly tender and flavorful. Although a bunch of sauces and garnishes are provided, the taco was good enough on its own. Of the sauces we received, my favorites to add was a squeeze of lime and the red sauce, which had a nice smokey Chipotle flavor and wasn't overly spicy. My friend ordered a quesadilla and it was absolutely massive! I definitely would only recommending ordering a quesadilla if you're sharing it, or if you're coming with a massive appetite. Overall, Tacos El Sazón Oaxaqueño was a nice gem we randomly stumbled upon while routing to In-N-Out for burgers. Between the two, I would certainly save my stomach space for tacos from Tacos El Sazón Oaxaqueño next time. read more

Tacos El Sazón Oaxaqueño - Food Stands Near Me - Vallejo, California

I respect people side hustles but season Y'all food. It makes me when we spend money for very low quality of food. Then you have customers hyping it up before you order, making my mouth water drool but when you get your order and take a bite you like yuck This is not a 5 place neither is it worth 4 . At best it's rated a 1 . The food is not even seasoned. Yes it's big portions but no season in the taco meat. I got 4 asada tacos and 1 asada torta for the cost of $29 and both orders weren't seasoned. Service was low level. Ambiance is a parking lot. The music was the only thing that was good. I really can't believe people be so excited to be in line for unseasoned food. Never again. So yes this is not a place I'd recommend to anyone. read more

Tacos El Sazón Oaxaqueño - This is how you pay - Food Stands Near Me - Vallejo, California

I visited Oaxaca City in 2006, and the slow cooked (with a pineapple on top) al pastor street tacos for 11 MXN ($1) I ate while waiting for an overnight bus to the coast was life changing! I'll never forget standing around eating one after another between swigs of Modelo with friends... California tacos have always been generally great, but this place is special. Since Oaxaca, I've only had as good al pastor in Mexico City last year in a similar setting. So I'm super excited and grateful that Vallejo now has its own amazing popup serving these incredible tacos, and more. My husband is a burrito guy with a big appetite, yet the servings are so hearty he can only eat half in one sitting. And my al pastor tacos sent me back to that Oaxaca bus stop with adventures ahead. Sitting on a busy corner parking lot, this place is super popular so expect to wait, plus parking can be tricky. All said, the service is efficient and people are patient to wait for what they know is a good thing. While waiting you can bag up your own garnishes like pico, salsa, pickled peppers, sautéed or raw onions, and more. I saw some people enjoy their food in their cars, but both times we brought ours home since we live close and the packaging keeps everything together well. Truly the most authentic Mexican al pastor and more you'll find in Vallejo. read more

Phat generous portions! Baked potatoes and burritos as large as your head. You can split a burrito between two and a baked potato for a family of four. They do not skimp on the meat or cheese. Drinks are also tasty and homemade. Stand also comes with a hefty sauce bar. Fast and friendly. Late night cravings. Stop here for that curb appeal satisfaction. read more

Tacos El Sazón Oaxaqueño - 10pm on a Saturday - Food Stands Near Me - Vallejo, California

I was a little put off with how much I paid for a burrito. It was $19 because I had half asada, half tripas, but I was hungry at midnight after traveling. Little did I know that this was probably the best burrito I had in this city. The only place worthy that is serving late night craving in the area. Highly recommended if you are hungry and need your Mexican food fix. read more

The BEST pastor tacos! I love the thin sliced pineapples they add. It's a must try. You won't regret it. Chef's kiss!!!

It was 10 PM and after a long day of work, I decided to to stop by to try the food. The smell of the meat cooking is amazing. I waited 10 minutes for my burrito, tacos, and horchata. The asada burrito was okay. The tacos weren't bad at all! The horchata was really good. I noticed that they had suadero meat and I'll try that next time. read more

Best pastor tacos in the bay... comparable to El Gordo's in San Diego. Open late, always a line, quick service, amazing tacos.

Luckily, I drive by this place every day on my way home from work. The pastor meat is turning on a spit over a fire. It's excellent. You definitely have to get that. Yummy homemade tortillas. Large array of salsas and all the fixings. The pineapple agua is great. Cash or Zelle. Excellent value, especially for the amount of food you get and the quality. I'm a regular. Note the business hours and come after 6:30 once they get all set up and the meat gets cooking. read more

Probably the best quesadilla I ever had, soo delicious with all the toppings/sides. Parking is very limited. Cash or Zelle only. No bathrooms. Right across street from gas station. Could be a long wait to order and get the food, but so worth it. No where to eat, so We ended up eating on the hood of our car, makes the experience more enjoyable. read more

Best in Vallejo especially on a late night. Get there early cuz there is always a line. The service is great and they're fast too.

Pastor and rice were flavor packed. I like my food saltier than normal, but this is a bit too salty for me. Definitely go with the pastor. The carne asada was dry and tough and the cabeza was ok. Avoid parking in the same lot as the food truck, multiple people park behind you and there's no way out until each car behind you moves. It's a nightmare getting out. I came on a busy night so if it's not crowded, parking in there should be fine. read more

Tacos El Sazón Oaxaqueño - Pastor burrito - Food Stands Near Me - Vallejo, California

I travel all the way from Hercules just to have these tacos. These are one of the best taco spots I've been to in the Bay Area. Keep in mind these are STREET TACOS. If you have issues with permits and all that, go elsewhere. This is not the place for you. You can tell they are hustling and they do a damn good job of it. There is a longggg line every time I go. Full open salsa and condiment station after you pay and there are no limits to which I love. Payment is cash or P2P (Zelle, etc) and prices are very reasonable and not pricey. I also am very picky about my al pastor and the trompo (spit) is what really caught my attention. Very delicious and juicy Al Pastor. Probably the best in the Bay Area and I don't say that often. Try these guys out, you will not be disappointed. Amazing tacos read more

Al pastor tacos were on point, not too salty like a lot of other spots. Great condiments and tasty salsa selection.

Reviews looked good. After a long day at the theme park our family of 6 was hungry and we stopped here, horrible. Expensive and the three different meats we all got were under cooked! None of us were able to finish our burritos. read more

The food was really good, highly recommend if you need a burrito that's filling for a good price. The service is great and the workers are very friendly and nice. read more

I'm always amazed with quality, quantity (a lot) , and price point. You can definitely feed a family of four for under $40! Also, salsa bar pretty much unlimited, most places these days only give limited salsa and veggies ‍. read more

I don't know about the licensing. I don't know about food truck protocol but all I can say is it's hot and it's good. I've been looking for good Mexican food in this area for a while and this hits the spot. read more

This is one of the biggest hidden gems in the bay. It's an extremely authentic Mexican spot. I've had tacos and burritos from the best spots in the city and San Jose--places like La Taqueria and El Farolito. This place takes the cake. My favorite is the burrito with cabeza beef meat. They make the burrito tortillas (and tacos tortillas too) from scratch on site! I don't know anyone else who does this. At the time of this review (July 2024), a burrito was $17. Al pastor is fire too. You can get all the toppings and salsas yourself on the table (including crema, lime, cilantro, and salsas). Depending on who is taking orders, he or she may not speak English. They accept cash and Zelle. Be prepared to wait at least 20 minutes! It's worth it. read more

I could smell the food from in my car across the intersection. It did not disappoint at all. When I watched them roll those burritos, my JAW DROPPED.
