Wonk’s Street Tacos - Carne asada street tacos rice and beans - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

Wonks pulls up to my job every Monday, and honestly? It's the one thing that makes Mondays bearable. I usually go for the super carne asada burrito--it's hefty, packed with flavor, and the meat's got that perfect grilled char. Guac and sour cream keep it creamy without turning it into a mess. It's a full-on meal that actually fills you up. The simple taco is exactly what it says--no fuss, just solid flavor. Great if you're not trying to nap after lunch. Service is quick and the staff's chill. Just good food, fast. No indoor seating, so plan to eat in your car or take it back to your desk. Solid 5/5 for a workday lunch that hits every time. read more

Asada fries were pretty bad. Old fries and old meat were drowned in nacho cheese and orange sauce. Lukewarm. Very salty and felt like a pile of mush. Not worth $20. Service was nice and polite. No salsas available to help this mess. read more

There was a super long line at this food truck at the boots and brews concert. Longer than the other taco stand and I'm so glad I waited in line. The tacos were delicious, the meats were tender and grilled so beautifully! I was very impressed as it was a truck at a concert. I got three tacos and it was $4 per reg taco and the super taco was $8/each! read more

The super tacos are killer! First tried this truck at the Thursday night market and have sought it out since. The regular street tacos were okay, but I'm sticking with the super taco next time. Would also like to try their burrito. read more

Lady got mad attitude not with me but definitely with other people, that left a bad taste. Also the tacos mad dry and cold, how do you manage to bring out cold tacos as they come out the stove??? I will say they are fast but if you decide to bring your business to a festival you better be prepared to deal with the flow of customers, after the attitude a lot of people started to walk out the line . read more

Wonk's taco truck was at the SJ market so I decided to try it since the menu looked pretty good. I ordered the taco plate with 3 chicken tacos and rice and beans on the side. The rice and beans were standard, and the tacos were just okay. Chicken was a little dry. They have an orange sauce that was a great topping and a little spicy! read more

Very satisfied with my order. This was my first time trying Wonks and it was so delicious. I ordered the Carne Asada Fries and they were not a disappointment. There was an even distribution on cheese, salsa, sour cream and meat. They didn't skip out on the meat like other places do. I mean, see for yourself I posted pictures! Can't wait to try other things on the menu! read more

How has this place been around for months and I'm only learning about it now? Well actually I happened upon it on DoorDash after another order of mine got messed up.. but yay for a new spot! I'm gonna hop straight into it. I bought 2 super tacos and 2 regular tacos, (2 asada and 2 al pastor). The tacos come with 2 tortillas each and are grilled/toasted for that satisfying crisp. SUPER TACOS-- The al pastor came with pineapple bits, which was a nice touch since I don't usually receive pineapple in most of the al pastor tacos I get. The flavor is decent with a light kick of spice. It's not straight off the the meat wheel but it'll definitely do the job. The carne asada one surprisingly had beans in it, while the al pastor did not. The flavor is also decent, a little more tart than other carne asada but that's probably just how their recipe is. Both are topped with a drizzle of sour cream (I believe), onions, cilantro, and lined with cheese. REGULAR TACOS -- They're your average tacos, and loaded up with lots of meat! Topped with cilantro and onions too. The standard. [VALUE: HIGH] Ok seriously look at the super taco pictures. They're HONKERS. huge. Between the super and regular, the super is like 3x bigger yo. I had two and I was like oh man.. I'm kinda done LOL. $3.50 each. it's really a steal guys. Get two and that's a huge snack. I feel like you'll be paying more at other places. SAUCES/SALSAS-- All 3 salsas are not spicy, feel free to fire hose your tacos hahaha. The orange salsa is more creamy than spicy which I did enjoy. Salsa verde is your average salsa verde, as is the rojo. I requested they throw all 3 in for me and they did so I appreciate that a lot. Restaurants sometimes miss the notes. TAKEAWAY // 4 stars- better than average tacos with premier portions! It's hard being a taco truck in SJ where there are countless options.One thing I haven't seen around that they offer are KETO TACOS and HOT CHEETO FRIES. Both are creative options I'm here for. I think I'm coming back for the Hot Cheetos fries at some point so I may revise. d:^) If y'all are hungry come smack some super tacos! P.S it looks like they do sell drinks (I saw a Jarritos in a picture) but this isn't offered on Doordash. Just an FYI for those getting delivered. read more

Will was hired for my private event of 80 guests. Food was horrible. The carne asada was salty overcooked and tough couldn't even eat it. The pastor was salty gross and looked undercooked. The rice and beans were salty. The only thing good was their pollo tacos. Also the lady worker was very rude to myself, my mother, my daughter and most of my guests that day. Also some of my guests had to ask the lady worker for their rice and beans. When they asked her, "where's the rice and beans" she rudely said, "well you didn't ask for it." This is unacceptable and unprofessional behavior as I payed for 80 guests to receive rice and beans in all their plates, they shouldn't have had to ask for it. They also ran out of foil and left early. Will the owner never informed me when he got there or when he left or if there was any food left over, (I had to call him the next day to find out, in which he stated there was nothing left. Mind you i don't feel he even brought enough food to feed 80 people.) The only communication I had with Will Wonks street tacos on that day is Will asking me for payment at the beginning of my party (in which I pay all my vendors at the end of service.) And most IMPORTANTLY he did not let me know when the food was ready. Therefore, my guests didn't start eating until 45 mins later (6:45pm). He was hired for 3 hrs (6-9pm) and told me, "sorry I'm still leaving at 9pm." Very Unprofessional!!! I had a grad party for my son who just graduated from the University of Reno Nevada. It was a private event for 80 guests which included mariachis, dj, decorator, security, etc ($5,000 party). Prior to my event I went and sampled his food on Thursday June 9, 2022 at the Gordon Biersch Night Market in SJ. I was pleased with the food I sampled, Al Pastor Tacos, Asada Tacos, Pollo Tacos, rice, beans and the 3 salsas (in which I was to have for my party.) I then asked Will (owner) what would be the cost for 80 people and what did that include. He said everything here, "the 3 meats, rice and beans, 3 salsas, two flavored waters of your choice and mini quesadillas for $1000." And that he would be serving for 3 hours. I agreed and hired him for my event for June 25, 2022. I then asked if I needed to pay him a deposit and he said, "no usually I charge a $200 deposit but its ok you don't need to I'll be there." (I'm assuming he said this because my cousin is his good friend and roommate.) That same day I text him that I would feel more comfortable with a contract and paying the deposit of $200. He never text me back that day so I phoned him the next day on Friday June 10, 2022 and asked him for a contract and to pay the deposit, he replied, "Can we do this on Monday." So he sent an invoice (not contract) on Monday, I paid the deposit and then the following week I text him about the flavors for the 2 waters. He then said, "I NEVER included the waters and the quesadillas in the price and they are an extra charge of $40 each." I told him no you said, "that the waters were included along with the mini quesadillas for $1000." And the only thing you said that would be an extra charge was the queso birria tacos, which we weren't getting at all! I then reminded him that our mutual friend Marrianne was there and she stated you said the same thing and you replied, "Who's Marrianne?" I was a little confused with Wills reply being that she is the one who spoke with him prior and referred me to him. At this point I just went along with everything because I didn't want to be left with no taquiero and I didn't have time to look for another. BEWARE! This owner says one thing and does another. Very UNPROFESSIONAL! His lady worker is RUDE! The food is salty and horrible! The food was not the same as I tasted prior. He changes what's included in the price, so get it in writing the minute after you hire him. Don't be like myself and wait because then what he writes in the invoice (not contract) and says in person is two completely different things. Most importantly look for the signs of UNPROFESSIONALISM and choose wisely. Other than the food my son had a beautiful memorable graduation party! Take a look.. read more

They were at Gordon Biersch night market and I ordered their Carne Asada Hot Cheeto fries. $15. Nothing special. Fries drowned in nacho cheese and paltry pieces of asada and sprinkled with a small bag of hot cheetos. Literally. I get that they had a lot of orders but I waited like 20-25 mins for one item. Also, they should have a receipt system for customers. Because quite possibly ANYBODY can grab an order without any confirmation. 2/5 for me read more

That creamy sauce wasn't really for us, but the meat was awesome as were the tortillas and salsas. I wasn't aware about the sauce, I'd definitely go back here again and just leave it off (or get it on the side if it's your first time). Prices might seem high but these are HUGE tacos, worth every penny. read more

Awesome Al pastor tacos. A little stingy when you ask for sauce on the side but it's whatever. I'm normally a burrito guy but I suggest the tacos. read more

TL;DR: Great tacos with very decent portions. My local apartment does Food Truck Wednesdays where they have one food truck come by and Wonk's was today. I actually had been craving tacos and it was pretty solid. I ordered 2 al pastor and 1 shrimp. My friend ordered the keto friendly shrimp taco as well. Each of the tacos comes with 2 corn tortillas that are grilled. They weren't crisp, but I think the juices from the meat soaks through them. The al pastor taco is about 4 inches diameter and had a really good combination of crispy pork bits that reminds me of bacon pieces if they were in bits as well as some small surprises of pork fat in them, which I love. It provides for a well balanced mixture with the cilantro and and onions. Another reviewer mentioned there was pineapple in her al pastor, which I didn't notice, but I also consumed these tacos within 10 minutes of sitting down and seriously enjoyed it. It's possible that it helped balanced the saltiness that can sometimes overwhelm a pork dish. It came with a good sized lime, about 1/4 cut of a lime wedge. The shrimp taco was about 6 inches in diameter and came with onions, cilantro, onion, cabbage, and bell pepper. It may be seasoned with some salt, pepper, and cayenne, because I got a kick. I love spicy stuff and have no idea where spice would have come from, because the red and green sauce I was given was not spicy at all. The shrimp is probably frozen and pre-shelled, but whatever they used, it took on the flavor well. A great balance of seasoning, because I tend to over salt my shrimp at home. The al pastor tacos were $4 each, which was basically like getting 4 tacos for $1. Make sure you eat your taco over the extra taco, so you can reap the benefits of a lot of meat. The shrimp taco was $5. I'd say overall, I had a very good haul for my appetite! 4 small tacos and 2 large ones? I'm gonna be solid until the next meal and I don't feel sick from the food. Thoughts: I wish they were a little faster. It took me about 20 minutes to get my order from them. I also wish they had some sort of drinks to offer, but I understand that can be a pain for food trucks that are only run by 2 people and for like 4-5 hours. I got impatient, because it wasn't like a food festival, so they seemed a little understaffed and would have run slightly smoother with 3 in the truck. I don't have any pictures of my food. I usually take pictures, but was hungry and honestly ate every single bite quickly. read more

Amazing classic tacos and not too pricey. Highly recommend. Really nice people very accommodating because their rice is so good that my family got a whole plate, even though it wasn't on the menu The ambience definitely depends on where they are parked , but when they're at the running shop in Hops, it seems organized. read more

My husband had ordered a burrito from this truck and it gave him food poisoning absolute garbage

Tried their truck out, which was a vendor at the Flea Market, and because on yelp, it was 4.5, I am sad to say I was disappointed. The line was long, which hyped me up to think it was good, but after a 40-45 minute wait AFTER I ordered, the tacos and quesadilla I ordered were dry and tasteless. So disappointing, especially waiting for so long. After I ordered, there was still a long line behind me and they announced they were out of carne asada. read more

Asada tacos were seasoned well and tasty. Would go again. Yellow corn tortillas were a nice touch

Got nachos with carne asada and hot cheetos because they ran out of fries. The carne asada was flavorless and only tasted like pure salt. $13 for the worst plate of nachos I've had. Appreciate them going out of their way for subbing fries for nachos but the food was disgusting read more

My family and I are frequent visitors to Wonk's Street Tacos and have been since they opened! My 7 year old son is the pickiest eater but often requests Carne Asada Tacos and Nacho's from Wonk's. They also are known for their Hot Cheeto burrito which is so delicious and the birria tacos are huge compared to other places. I've never had a bad encounter nor has anyone of his staff been rude. I highly recommend trying them out and booking them for your next catering event! read more

Wow! I have been wanting to try this place out since I live so close and I finally did! Don't let the small amount of reviews change your mind on trying this place out. I ordered for the family so we bought 12 tacos 3 super tacos and one asada fries. Omg it was so good! I would say go for the super tacos definitely worth it. The asada fries are loaded. Some places make their asada fries so sad with little fries little nacho cheese and little to no meat. This place their fries were really good they filled the food container. Sorry no pictures because my family started eating before I could write this review. read more

The food is amazing! 10/10 would recommend the hot Cheeto nacho fries! Plus can't beat friendly staff!
