Tacos El Noa Noa in Sunnyvale is a hidden gem serving up delicious street tacos. Here's what impressed me:
Fresh & Fast: There's a small parking lot, but be aware – the signs say it's for takeout only, encouraging you to free up spots for others. There aren't any tables on-site, but they do have chairs outside the truck for waiting.
Taco Time: They offer a variety of quesadillas, burritos, tacos, and tortas. I opted for the carne asada, carnitas, and al pastor tacos. They were packaged perfectly for takeout, arriving home warm and secure.
Flavorful Fixings: Each taco came with a game-changer: caramelized onions! Lemon, radish, and a side of their red and green hot sauces rounded out the package.
Delicious on Its Own: Honestly, I didn't even need the hot sauce. Every taco was fantastic – generous portions of tender, juicy meat with perfectly balanced flavors.
This is a top contender for the Bay area's street taco scene....

I tried their signature Quesabirria tacos which were $4 each. It’s tender beef and cheese in a semi-hard corn shell. It comes with a dipping sauce, as well as the usual red and greed sauces.
Squeezed a bit of lemon and dipped it in the sauce and OMG, this thing is juicy delicious! Insane! Just a slight crunchiness from the shell and a totally tasty melt-in-your-mouth perfectly spiced bite inside. The dipping sauce was so good I just drank what was left after the meal!
The green sauce was also excellent as a dip. The radish slices were great to cleanse the palate between tacos.
Highly recommended, especially if you are tired of the typical taco truck and want to try something new like this...
Read moreAfter getting my teeth cleaned today I decided to get my choppers a bite to eat. I was craving a Quesabirria. After searching my Yelp app I stumbled across tacos el Noa-Noa food truck. The run down: #1.Kind of hard to get to due to construction going on all over the place, I parked across the street and took my chances J walking. #2. It’s located in a dingy parking lot. #3. Windows on the truck are filthy. #4. Lots of oil used to cook the corn Birria shell. #5. Comes with a green sauce, red sauce, and Birria au jus. The au jus was pretty much flavor less, the green sauce was tangy (like it was spoiled) the red sauce had a little heat and was very smoky. #6. The highlight of the Quesabirria was the sautéed onions on the side. As for the Quesabirria I found the meat lacking in flavor, lots of cheese and very oily. Bottom line I can...
