We went here late on a Saturday night! They have indoor and outdoor seating and variety of meat selections. We got tacos with asada, chorizo, and camaron. All were super tasty! They put beans on their tacos which was a nice touch and made the tacos even more hearty. Would recommend this spot for some late night tacos! read more

Tacos Genesis is hands down my favorite taco truck in San Jose after I discovered and tried it for the first time! Now I get this place almost every time I'm craving some late night tacos. My go-to order is the super tacos (handmade tortillas, beans, and cheese) with al pastor. Their el pastor meat is the BEST al pastor I've ever tried!!! It's crispy, juicy, and just amazing. The way they grill their tortilla and meat with the handmade tortilla makes it so much better. They also have a lot of sauce option. The green sauce (the brighter green looking one) is my favoriteeeee. You can definitely taste how fresh it is and it goes well with the tacos. I've tried a lot of things on their menu and they're honestly all so good. I highly recommend trying the al pastor, tripas, suadero, and al pastor meats with handmade tortilla. They are a small business so I love going here whenever I'm craving a late night craving to support them because the workers are incredibly welcoming and sweet. There is usually no line to wait here, but if there is, they are super fast with taking and making your orders. The business also has some tables and chairs set up outside and inside as well (for bigger groups). I love Tacos Genesis and I hope they get the recognition and support they deserve!! read more

I ordered tripa tacos and birria tacos. Tripa was very crispy and flavorful, it tasted like bacon which i love. They have seatings in the restaurant and one table outside. It's nice that they open late until 3am. I will come back for more tripas read more

One thing that stands out here is that they had really fresh-tasting salsas. It made their tacos taste lighter and not as greasy as other tacos, which is a plus. However, it was missing the addictive factor for me, so not sure if I'd be back. The price of the tacos are comparable to that of other places in the area. I think I paid $22 for 6 tacos, but they also gave us a free bean taco to snack on while waiting, however we're not huge fans of beans, so we didn't touch it. I thought it was interesting that they took over the old Bo Da Restaurant space, but they set up a truck in front of the restaurant. Not sure if that's just a night-thing, since we did stop by around 9pm. Inside the eating area, they were blasting music and also had an additional self serve salsa bar. The people were friendly and food was decent, but not sure if I see myself coming back, since there's some better spots around the area. read more

I'm a fan! You know their food is going to be good when no one speaks english and everything on their menu is on spanish. You know its also good when its packed with Mexican people. Thats when you know its authentic. I think the most important thing in a taco is the meat and how they cook it. Genesis's el pastor and carne is packed with flavor. I love watching them cut the meat off the skewer. You will not be disappointed. read more

The spot: the truck is located on story rd by weinerschnitzel!! has indoor seating if you plan to eat there versus takeout. pay accepted in cash or zelle making it super convenient if you're not the type to carry cash. The food: i ordered two mulitas, one with pastor and one with chorizo! the meat was delicious and well seasoned in both. they also served it with plenty of grilled onions, a grilled pepper, limes, and a free extra taco!! sauce bar on the side with plenty of options too. i personally devoured my food and would return to try the rest of their menu :) read more

Seem like they open their taco truck along Story Road and Capitol Expressway. (I saw them at 2868 Story Rd) I really love how good the food is here. They are really known for their crispy tripe meat. You have the option to choose between a flour tortilla or a corn tortilla. The last time I was here, I got a free mulita. This time I got free ice cream. Great food, great service, great space! read more

I came here for the first time during a late Saturday night and I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed the food here. The place wasn't too busy so we didn't wait that long. They had a sauce bar in which you can just serve yourself. My favorite sauce was the bright verde sauce. A couple of their red sauces definitely had that heat. Wished they had orange sauce though. I tried the Al Pastor, Carne Asada and Tripa Crispy Tacos as well as the quesadilla. I recommend getting the tacos with cheese. They put the cheese under the meat so it makes the taco shell more durable and less messy to eat. The limes they provided were juicy and they provide radishes as well. For the quesadilla, they provide both with grilled onions as well. It was my first time trying the tripa and I didn't really enjoy it since it was too chewy for me. The rest of the meats tasted great though. The cashier was very friendly. They accept Zelle and cash here. I will definitely be going to this place again since the food is great and it isn't as crowded as other taco spots. read more

Their hand made tortillas are so good! Tripa and cabeza tacos are my favorite! The best thing is that they open really late and got indoor seatings. Everything a season to perfection. Their meat is tender and so flavorful. One of the best taco spots in town. Hands down read more

Love this place the ppl are honest and hard working. They keep it professional and clean. I forgot my tacos came back for them and they offer to make me hot ones. Food is great tacos and burritos were good portion. Nothing bad to say about them I definitely recommend this place. I'm for sure coming back. read more

My go to taco spot. They have home made tortillas that cost a bit more but well worth it. I prefer this over taco chencho which is nearby and popular. Service is great and food comes out hot. The worst are those taco places that would have precooked meat and they would scoop it to make their food. Quesadilla and burritos are great options as well! read more

I got a burrito de asada it was good came with grilled onions on the side, burrito had a nice crunch to it. They take call in orders so came to leave the review so I can leave the picture of the menu since I noticed they didn't have one (: but def recommend read more

Decided to give this place a try and ordered the carne asada Super Taco. Had no idea they also offered hand made tortillas if you prefer that instead of the store bought ones. They have the doors open at Boda to eat your food inside along with a salsa station. The taco was mouth watering to say the least. Definitely coming back to try other items on the menu. read more

Came here for Taco Tuesday. We saw it while driving pass and decided to stop by. It was located in front of Boda, the Chinese restaurant that shut down a while back. Tacos Genesis' bright light warmed up the surroundings of an otherwise scary-looking, vacant building. Our group of five was lucky because the other customers sitting at the table and ordering were so friendly. They helped us out on what to order. The woman in front of us ordered enough food for her entire family, so she carried a huge stack of plates. The guys sitting at the table were giving suggestions as well. The menu is big, easy to read, and there's a lot of variety. We went with the al pastor and the cabeza. They were both delicious! The portions are good. There is a self-serve salsa bar by the cashier's window. All of the sauces were amazing, but be careful when trying the orange sauce. It is SPICY! I have a good spice tolerance but I had to take a breather on this one. With plenty of seating as well as delicious food and sauces, I think this may be one of my favorite food trucks in San Jose. read more

I've been obsessed over their tripa tacos here. Seriously obsessed. I've been here at least twice a week lately. Make sure to ask for extra crispy. They double wrap the tortilla for each taco but it's not heavy and I don't get sick of it, even after 5 tacos. They open late at 7pm during the weekdays (M-F); so come at 7:15pm if you don't want to wait. I'll be back regularly :) We ordered 18 tripa tacos once and he gifted us two extra crispy cheese tripa tacos; and it changed everything. Put cheese on your tacos; it's amazing. read more

Went here with my cousin on a Sunday afternoon after she's been raving about this place for weeks! I was so excited to grub after a relaxing massage. Yes I'm fueling my body with happiness after putting myself through a grueling (yet relaxing) thai massage...it's a reward. But on to the review about the taco joint.... We ordered 18 (yes that's right) tripe tacos, extra crispy. We probably cleaned them out of their tripe stock and had to run out to source a new cow :). Anyhow the tripe tacos did not disappoint and it was crispy like we requested. We ordered it with everything and took it to home to shyly pig out. The area is in a tented corner of an auto lot that's directly across from Pep boys. They have two long tables for seating and have a self serve salsa bar. I love the simple vibes here and would definitely return and order another 18 tacos. (: read more

Been wanting to try this place for a while. Saw a video online, and it looked goods decided to give it a try. I don't know if it was the crew that night or if this is an everyday thing. Visually, it looked good when I got my plate. In my personal opinion the meat was a little slimy feeling and the green sauce tasted expired. The tortillas were pretty cold. Again, maybe it was the crew that night. This was my personal experience. read more

Support a local food truck that serves authentic Mexican street tacos, burritos, hot dogs, & more. Vendor accepts zelle & cash. Prices are average ($12 for a carne asada burrito & $1.95 for a taco). They offer the option of hand made tortillas at $2.5 per taco. Meats include asada, chicken, Al pastor, & more. Customer service & wait time are efficient. Highly recommend as the flavors are poppin & the ingredients are fresh! read more

Tbh I'm not even sure I'm reviewing the truck we went to but wow. Finally found one just right. Authentic, amazing tacos.

I can't believe I've been sleeping on this place. If you're from Michoacán you'll feel just like home! The customer service is immaculate the food is amazing there's so much taste to it. Everything is cooked right in front of you, They're constantly changing their gloves they're wearing face coverings. The price is great! I left the lady a tip She ran after me to give it to me thinking I over paid,that just amazes me about their honesty. Dine outside! I love this place! read more

Delicious place for late night tacos! I've been back here multiple times since my initial visit and they never disappoint. The employees are super friendly and generous. I get the extra crispy tripas tacos and it tastes amazing each time. I've also had the chance to try the cantaloupe agua fresca and it's one of my favorites now. Taco Genesis needs the recognition it deserves and I hope everyone tries it out. read more

Straight up Bunk mission. Was on my way to Super Taqueria, but i remember seeing this spot and been wanting to try them so i came. Good meat selections so i tried Tripas, Asada Lengua and Al pastor. Lengua was the worst, bland no taste, tripas were huge and soggy, al pastor was definitely not al pastor and the Asada was chopped super fine that the onions were bigger chunks. So they had a variety but none stood out. Salsas definitely need salt. Home made corn tortillas but something was off about them because the taste was just not there. Overall i should of stuck to plan on going to Super Taqueria since atleast they are consistent with their flavors. Well scratched that one off the list and will definitely not going back anytime soon. Bunk Mission!!!!!! read more

Michoacán enchiladas only on Fridays. Tacos are horrible . Pastor tacos were so dry. Avoid this place at all costs. The juegos Fresca was no bueno and been sitting all day. this place is over priced we spent $60 for 12 tacos, an quesadilla and hotdog. There is no price menu so I'm sure just ball-parking the prices as they go. read more

Tacos genesis is an amazing hidden gem. Don't come here expecting anything less than true authentic Mexican food. They have a variety of four sauces which are amazing and spicy. I ordered 4 tacos, you can choose between handmade tortillas or corn tortilla and I chose corn and they were crispy and the steak was well done and my boyfriend ordered a burrito and he said you could really taste the flavors of the meat. read more

Really friendly staff and great food, they even gave us free drinks! Will be back again, muy sabroso
