About Taqueria El Abuelo

Taqueria El Abuelo is a taqueria, so expect a short, meat-forward menu, corn tortillas, and salsas made in house rather than a broad sit-down Mexican menu. It sits in San Jose (95125), CA, independently run.

There is no star rating on file for Taqueria El Abuelo yet, so it is ranked here on how taco-focused it is (a taqueria scores above a general restaurant) and how complete its public listing is, not on reviews.

If a trompo is turning, order al pastor. Otherwise asada or carnitas is the safe read. Ask for everything con todo and work the salsa bar.

It runs late, which makes it a solid after-hours option when the sit-down places have closed.

It is on Lincoln Avenue in San Jose. Use the Directions button for turn-by-turn.

Call ahead or check the map listing before a special trip. Small taquerias change hours often, and our data refreshes on a schedule, not live.

In our San Jose taco guide, Taqueria El Abuelo is ranked #7 of 201, by taco specialisation and listing completeness. How we rank.
