La Santa Torta - Oakland

This is my second time here, after a good first experience I was optimistic about returning. Unfortunately, this second trip was really disappointing. I ordered a torta and it was mid at best. The portion of meat was meager, it was pretty much all bread, for $16+ dollars per torta I expected better.

They refer to them as red tacos because some people struggle to pronounce birria, but in my opinion, this is the best birria in the Bay Area. I have yet to find any other place that comes close. The service is fast, the staff is friendly, and they now have a semi-permanent location at a brewery. Overall, it is a fantastic experience.

I absolutely love this food truck in the area. Their birria is exceptionally juicy and flavorful, it doesn't even need any broth. They offer their birria in various forms, but my favorite is their red tacos. I highly recommend trying them out.

I haven't had the food because they are unreliable about being where they say they are going to be.

Delicious food, delicious birria tacos!!! Location is ehh; there's always some homeless person nearby doing something that makes you a little hyper aware but that comes with the location. Great food.
