Well...it's not Taqueria Sinaloa nor the Guadalajara Taco Truck nor Mariscos La Costa in Oakland... But when one of your best foodie buddies is a taco maniac, it's hard to compare! This taco truck is literally just a 5 minute walk away from my house perched right outside of Central Foods -- it seems to always be there 7 days a week, 8 hours a day. (Maybe more!) So, that's the great thing about this place -- if I NEED a taco fix..it's RIGHT there! Nonetheless, here's what I tried out today: 1) Tacos, $1.25 - Corn tortillas are too soft and not crispy enough for my liking - Good selection of meats, but the Al Pastor, Carnitas, and Chicken aren't nearly as tasty as the ones in Oakland. Could use more seasoning/strong flavors* - Opt for the steak! It's quite tender 2) Torta, $5- - I've tried the steak torta, which is wrapped up in a simple bread with sour cream, shredded lettuce, and jalapenos. Quite messy and very filling! One torta (along with a taco each) definitely filled up my sister and me! *NOTE*: They don't serve avocado at the taco truck. But, you can easily walk into Central Foods and purchase one for about 79 cents. (Which is what we did, and I whipped up a quick guacamole for our snackage). And they do NOT serve horchata here =(. All in all, as all taco trucks go, good cheap eats for when you're craving quick mexican street food in the oh-so-ghetto-but-I-call-it-home, El Sob. read more

I stopped by this truck because I always see a lot of people there, so I thought it would be some good burritos. I don't know how so many people said "best taco truck!" This truck by far is one of the worst truck I've been to. I ordered an Al Pastor burrito; meat got no taste and it's not even spicy! If you're gonna call something "spicy pork", I better get some heat from it! Burrito is so small that it's not even worth the 6 bucks! If you guys want good burrito, go to Mi Virgencita Taqueria! read more

I've always seen this truck and decided to give it a try. I approached with a smile and I was put off with the cashier's attitude at first. I was tired and I really didn't care so I ignored her little attitude and chalked it up to her being young-minded. I ordered the carne asada tacos and they were okay, nothing to write home about. The salsa was good. I'm more a red-salsa fan but the green salsa was my preference from this truck. I'll give this truck another try but I'll stick to my fav on 21st n MacDonald. read more

A great authentic Burrito at a decent price. Very friendly ladies running the truck. I'll definitely be here regularly. read more

Tacos Rodriguez - Chicken Super Burrito, $7 - Mexican Near Me - El Sobrante, California

If i could give them a big fat zero i would.I only have 1one word for the female cashier well maybe two,rude BIRD!! I don't know what her problem is, I saw her act friendly to men ,but rude to females,she obviously lacks the customer service gene!! read more

Normally love this spot. I came across a rude cashier who told me her name is Lorena... after not wanting to give her name. I order 3 carne asada tacos and a corn tortilla quesadilla with just cheese. Then another three carne asada tacos separate for my mom. She gives me a flour quesadilla and six CARNITAS TACOS!!! I don't eat pork... I've been coming to you guys for years and this was the only bad experience I've ever had. I tried to call the phone numbers listed and no answer. I might not ever be back if she continues to not listen to her customers and have attitude. She also refused to give me two packets of jalapeños and carrots. After I already told her these meals were going to two different places. I'm so upset. I really liked this place. read more

Been going here for 11 years. Started going here when I lived in El Sobrante. Moved to San Rafael and I'm still going here! Best authentic burritos anywhere! Love this place! read more

I work up the road from here and frequent this place a lot for my lunch burritos: Shredded chicken, no onions. The staff is as friendly as it gets for a busy place like this. they are constantly moving and keeping orders going. I recently discovered that they serve sopes here and tried them when we stopped by for a late breakfast last weekend. I had four sopes with carne asada....BOMB.com. They were so good and tasted home made. Not what I expected. I assumed they would take frozen or something but they tasted fresh! Super delish! Each sope included meat topping, topped with sour cream, lettuce and cilantro for 2.50 each! Ridiculously great value! read more

This truck is horrible I ordered several tacos and the meat was so fatty every bite was pure steak fat. No flavor. Thea people don't give a fuck what there serving you, as long as your buying it! Trash quality flavorless food with no type of finesse...I should've went to the taco shop down the street. I swear they gotta step it up read more

This is my go-to taco truck. Not because it's in my neighborhood, but because it was the one I went to as a kid. This taco truck has been parked in the front of Central Foods for as long as I can remember, it seems. It's not the best Mexican food you can find in the Bay, but it's sure good for El Sobrante and the prices are good too. I can't justify spending $2 each somewhere else for tacos this size. They have a few picnic tables in front of the ordering area, so there's some seating, but it's not covered. You can choose to wait out your order inside the market in the same parking lot, or just enjoy the weather at the tables. They have green and red salsa and they offer the pickled jalapeños and carrots. If you ask, they'll give you a lime. This taco truck is pretty fast compared to some of the Richmond ones. The men and women inside the truck are super friendly too. I've found that some Richmond taco trucks get angry or upset if you don't speak Spanish, but that's definitely not the case here. I'll always be a customer at Tacos Rodriguez. read more

Tacos Rodriguez - Steak Tacos - Mexican Near Me - El Sobrante, California

READ: i ordered 6 tacos. 2 asada, 2 carnitas, 2 tripas. I ordered them with onions and cilantro and added refried beans. I have to say, and i domt say it lightly, some of the best tacos ive ever had. Theres only one other place that is on this level and thats in oakland. This is why: the tortillas werent falling apart, the tortillas werent greasy, they werent soggy either or hard, just right. And the meat, excellent not over or under cooked and the seasoning was excellent especially on the asada. Not everyone likes tripas but if your fan this was excellent they werent hella greasy and they were crispy but not too crispy. And last but not least the salsa was one of the best. On the spicier side so its not just tomatoe sauce for those that dont like it too spicy i say lightly add it for those that want the full flavor add all of it, its not too spicy but very flavorful. Everything was very fresh from the meat to the torilla everything. I also had an horchata, it wasnt too sweet which i hate good cinimon flavor right on, id like it even less sweet but this was tolerable. I would give this place 8/10, they even had tables i would add some umbrellas cause its gonna be hot and i would say the lady should smile more but she wasnt rude oh and they take card! read more

My absolute fave, burrito de carne asada con queso y culantro con salsa verde!! mmmmmm good prices for good food!

I've come here a couple of times with my boyfriend and it's pretty good. I usually order the steak burritos and let me tell you that they are huge especially for a cheap price. The burrito is probably the size of my forearm in length. They are super friendly here and fast. As for the taste with the steak burritos, sometimes it's a hit or a miss with me. I do want to try their tacos of course, actually I want to try it all! read more

Subpar burritos. I've ordered from here a few times now because I like to give second chances. This time we ordered a veggie super burrito and it was extremely disappointing. The people working were friendly enough, but the burrito barely had any veggies and we couldn't even find beans! Just lettuce, carrots and pickled jalapeños. My son enjoyed tacos from here, but I'm not sure if this will be our go-to spot. read more

It's been years since I've tried tacos that are not from LA FLOR DE JALISCO on 21st in Richmond or LOS PRIMOS... But here they come right close to them both! I always get asada and al pastor, they have no fat and the portions are just right! Their salsa is the bomb too! The only minus they have is they charge for extra salsa, I didn't ask for a whole lot, but eh, will come back, there close to home and good tacos. read more

Fourth time's a charm? Ugh...I give up. Not on eating here, but on expecting them to get my order right. The food is good. Maybe ever 4-stars (by my scale). Tasty Carnitas and Al Pastor. Carne Asada is OK+. Chicken is meh... Still, pretty good food. But, for the love of Christ, they never fail to screw something up! Tacos in stead of burritos...burritos instead of tacos...wrong meat on wrong thing...sour cream out of nowhere...cheese completely missing when I clearly asked for it... Ugh. I get it. English isn't their first language. Fine. But, we're talking about tacos, burritos, cheese, and sour cream. It's not a flippin' English exam. So, if you want some reasonably good taco truck food and you're in the neighborhood, stop by. Just don't expect exactly what you order... read more

Everytime I drive past this truck, there's always a line so I finally tried it. My fiancé decided to grab us a couple of super burritos to try, chicken for him and steak for me. We also switched and took bites from each other and we both agreed that it was good. I actually didn't go to the truck myself but the mister said that the wait took a while. I personally thought it could've been slightly bigger since it's a super but the length was longer than the average burrito. Every place have different versions. read more

The quality of their tacos are consistent and delicious. The burrito is pretty good too. Can't really write to much about a taco truck except saying if you're in the area and want a quick cheap bite, stop here! While you are here go inside to Central Market they have a great meat department! read more

I'm giving 3 stars because although the food is good, the ladies behind the counter are rude as fuck. No manners. I even said please and thank you after everything and still didn't get a response. I don't think I will be going back and if I do I will end up telling her off. After dealing with her it makes you not want to even eat the food. I've been going there for years and it's always the females that have shitty attitudes. The men were nice but haven't seen them in awhile. read more

I ordered a burrito from here before, the rice tasted super old! Almost as if they gave me rice from the day before. It seems to be a popular spot so maybe I just got a bad dish that today. Not sure if I would spend money here again though. read more

The best Mexican food In El Sobrante! I love their tacos, burritos and sandwiches. An added perk is you can get amazing fresh meat from the butchers at Central Foods for dinner while you pick up lunch. Love their free pickled carrot, radish and jalapeño side as well. A must try !!! read more

I usually get the carne asada super burrito and I've never been disappointed. Salsa verde is good too.

The Tacos are so good!!!! I don't like the burritos doesn't have enough flavor for me.

I live right down the street we always pass by and see the long line but never had tried it but today we did and it was great! It was good service and yummy food. read more

Horrible!!! Nothing at this truck is tasty. I domt know if its the meat their using or the seasoning. It's horrible.

THE BEST TACOS. period. My husband and I tried this taco truck on a whim a few years back and we have been faithfully returning ever since. It used to be our weekend ritual to ride our bikes down the road to enjoy these tasty treats, but it got a little out of hand, so now we go for a special treat. If ever we have company from out of town, we insist they try their tacos. Just delicious! We usually get tacos, but their burritos are fabulous. It doesn't get cheaper and the flavor is literally the best I've ever had - moist, tender meat and incredible spices. I might go down and get another right now. I think it's Sunday that they're closed. I've discovered that as a sad surprise when I've gone there hoping for a hangover cure. Oh, and Central Market is great, too. Super friendly staff and excellent produce at the best prices. Also, great selection of beans. Their avocados are always the cheapest. We also like to go in and buy a few while we wait to put on the tacos/burritos. FIVE STARS!!! read more

Carne asada super burrito! Yum. Their salsa verde inspired me to grow tomatillos. This is my favorite taco truck.

picked up six burritos today 07/20/14 4 carnitas and 2 pastor, I was there about 3 weeks ago and was very disappointed, Thinking maybe a bad day. So I decided to try again everyone deserves a second chance No again burritos very small, bland flavor, too much rice, sauce on the side tasted stale, I found this truck about a year ago on yelp and was happy with them but it seems quality is lacking. read more

Haidet the service. Very rude. Would not return my money. When I stated that I did not like the Barito. No seasoning. Just tasted like plain meat on a burrito. read more

I am lucky to have this place close to where I live, there Carnitas tacos are the best I can think of and at $1.25 to boot. my only complaint is the customers. come on people am I the only one that tips here? how hard is it to tip 50 cents when ordering 2 tacos. I am going there right now to get some great tacos :) read more

Even tho the burritos are small!THEY SRE PACKED WITH FLAVOR.they had great meat n the rice is never cold

I just went here for the first time in over a year and ordered a pastor super burrito an it was just straight up awesome. You can take a man out of El Sob, but you can't take El Sob out of a man. Extremely satisfied! read more

This gotta be the nastiest Mexican food I've ever had. I have no idea how there's a line. Don't even get me started on the horchata

I used to go very often but always when you asked for extra salsa they don't give to you and want to charge more and to be honest the salsa is the one is good not the tacos read more

The best Mexican food in town !!!! We have tried most all Mexican food places in the area and they have the best food so far

the famous richmond ca, steak burritoe flavor. Youll find it in mexico , la. oakland, and here. el sebrante. lol.
