Alva's Food Truck — Restaurant in Redwood City

4.5 stars- as someone that grew up in San Diego, I wasn't expecting to find decent street tacos in the Peninsula, but Alva's Food Truck has been really delicious! I've only ordered their street tacos so far, but I'm really happy with the meat options (they have lengua!), garnished simply with onion, cilantro and a classic tortilla. The owner is very friendly, efficient, and I also appreciate that you can order ahead by phone or on Uber Eats. Overall, a really great neighborhood food truck, prices are reasonable, and the food...

The Bay Area has some of the fiercest competitive markets for Americanized Mexican food in the world. Of the many fine burrito-centric establishments I have tried here, Alva's is one of the best.
