The Bay's Taco Truck - Berkeley — Restaurant in Berkeley

The Taco game is heating up in the East Bay, with over 50 taco trucks in various locations that were not there 10 years ago. It's like the world is finally waking up to how great tacos are and taco trucks are spreading like a virus, but a virus we love, and want to get all the time.

The Bay's tacos, a small independent chain with four or five trucks in the East Bay, are making a strong showing. I ordered some suadero tacos that didn't have that "Comal", taste that I like, (infused with Longaniza and Manteca flavors) but it did have chunks that were "doradito", (crispy and golden) which I thought was a nice twist on the classic. The tortillas were really fresh, and the horchata, was sweet.

One thing I did notice though, was that the salsa here is a little better than the salsa at a lot of the other trucks. Some of the trucks in the East Bay, serve great tacos, but they don't really have a tight salsa game. The Bay's taco truck, has top shelf salsa. Another win for taco lovers in the Berkeley...

Delicious tacos, quesadillas and fries. We especially love their grilled steak, shrimp, and tripe. Both their corn and flour tortillas are tasty, we can taste fresh corn out of it with no weird tastes of preservatives like commercial ones do, they are thicker corn tortillas compared to others, which is good filling. Their flour tortillas is a bit layered, thin and soft in texture which I like very much. Their grilled chilies are killers, tasty and spicy! We like all the pickles they offered. I can say they use fresh ingredients and heart making their food. We requested them to use our containers to pack our food, and they arranged them like a pro! They accept all kinds of payments, including Apple pay and all...

Eh. Tried the pastor, lengua and the cabeza. Still haven't been able to find decent cabeza on the west coast. lengua was fine BUT there was too much meat water :( in both the cabeza and the lengua. I asked for no salsa but the kitchen put salsa on the tacos anyways. The pastor and the cabeza were both not fatty...
