Tacos El Gabacho

Great food and service! Tacos el Gabacho catered one of my friends birthday party and it was a hit. The salsa, the beans, the rice and omg their handmade tortillas. The best!!!

I called them to do a catering experience for my nephew who wanted tacos after his small wedding. He is pescatarian so it was important that the taquero did fish tacos. I called and spoke with Devan and at first he said they don't do parties of 20 when I told him for how many. He then quickly changed his mind and said he would cater our affair after I told him I saw him on Yelp. I was quoted a very fair price which included fish tacos and all the other fixings which come with the tacos. I then told him how we would like to set up for the day and the kitchen and sent him pictures and came to a conclusion to serve in our kitchen and cook out in the front. Before the date I had several emails in which I kept having to repeat my intentions with his wife Maria about set up.On the day of the catering it seemed as though there had never been any conversation of how we wanted things setup. I showed Maria and her granddaughter where we wanted to serve in the kitchen.The tacos were all tasty. Kudos for the fish tacos. They use Red Snapper and fried them in panko crumbs. The Carne asada was chopped the finest I had ever had and tasted no gristle or fat. The adovada was good and the chicken was chicken. Service was fantastic which prepared and serve the food. The family really liked their rice. Be carful with the red salsa, Maria said it was hot and it was! The jalapenos she gives you have a great taste. We had plenty of leftovers as promised.When it came to paying I was quoted a different amount then what I received on the initial quote. It seems Maria sent another quote on the Friday before the Saturday event and there was an increase on that quote. I was not happy that the price had been increased at the last minute as I did not check my email that Friday. I did pay it without issue and my wife was going to send more gratuity until I told her it was included in the price. Please be aware that they do add a 10% Service Fee and a 15% Gratuity with their quote. I'm sure the next experience will be a lot better. Thank you for taking on the catering that day for my nephew and his new wife and fulfilling their request for fish tacos as their first married meal.

Wow what great service and food! We had a party of 40 people and everyone loved the tacos. The homemade tortillas were amazing! The setup was beautiful and service was wonderful. We even have lots of leftovers to enjoy! It was so nice to have great food for the party but not have to worry about any of the cleanup. They handled it all! If you're having an event I highly recommend this company!

My son's Cub Scout pack was having a year end camping trip and I was tasked with finding a caterer. Tacos El Gabacho was willing to make the drive to our campground, and helped me with the logistics of getting them into the county park. All of the food was amazing, some of the best tacos I've ever had, beans were so good, great salsas, everyone was extremely pleased with the food. I can't recommend them enough! If you need a taco caterer give them a call.

They came up to my home for my father's gathering to Upland. They were great, on time and everything ran as expected. Food was great!! I will use them again for my next party. Thank Devan n Maria...

This place made yelps top 100 list. I can see why. Pretty great Has to post a review because god is good and I hope he blesses you and your restaurant.

Tacos El Gabacho was the BEST! They came out and set up in our driveway for a party of about 30 of us. We had the best time getting to know them, and the food did not disappoint. They are the nicest people with the funniest stories to tell. All of the meat was amazing along with the toppings and beans and rice. It's a must for your next party!! We will for sure be calling them back (:

Outstanding street taco catering cart. First rate service. Can't say enough about how Devan and Maria helped us out for a last minute request to cater a 30 plus community party.

Tacos El Gabacho provided excellent food for our combined garden grad party. Everyone said how good the food was, which is really important when you're serving a crowd of friends. The pricing was also very competitive.There were a few things that could have gone better, and I note them here in the hopes of being helpful and encouraging future customers (and the vendor) to be mindful of them. They are all things involved in communication and can be remedied.One thing was we had hoped to have the food set up in our back yard, and I communicated this early on in the quote process. I offered measurements of our yard gates but was assured they could go to the back yard. (I figured they had a way of cooking on tables rather than their (cute) cart.) When they arrived the cart could not fit in the party yard. They offered to cook food in the driveway and transport and serve it in the back/party yard. In the end we managed to get the cart into the side yard and it worked out fine, just not as I had hoped/planned.Another issue was that the food was meant to be served from 6-8 but wasn't actually ready until more like 7. Again, not a deal breaker, but to be considered.Lastly, though the deposit payment went well, the final payment process was snafu'd and stressful (for me). I would suggest that future customers request a payment "request" from the vendors.That's it -- food was really good and a good price, the communication could be better.PS - one extra issue -- it would seem that something (grease from cooking?) was spilled or poured behind the cart, in a pebbly area where the dogs have access to. My lab spent a good amount of time licking the ground before I realized what was going on. She "expelled" a lot of rocks she must have eaten while licking the ground. Thankfully she seems ok.

We had a Cinco de Mayo birthday celebration for 40 guests this week and Tacos El Gabacho did not disappoint! They exceeded my expectations with delicious tacos, wonderful setup and service, and great value. Every thing was freshly cooked and prepared including the handmade tortillas. We had carne asada, pork adobada, and fish tacos, along with all the fixings. The setup was beautiful. Thank you to Maria for providing such delicious food with your lovely smile and professional service.
