Taqueria San Jose

3.91,046 reviews ·Opens at 9AM

Taqueria San Jose is a Bridgeport favorite for tender, well-seasoned steak and standout cecina tacos served with beans, plus delicious carne de res nachos, chicken mole, fresh salsas, and horchata. Regulars appreciate the welcoming atmosphere, attentive service, late-night dining, and quick, carefully packed burritos—ideal for casual meals with family or friends. Portions can feel small for the price, and delivery reviews are less consistent than dining in.

The homemade salsas were amazing! All the food was delicious. Service, ambiance, and general vibes in this place were awesome, definitely coming back.

They have a new policy saying you can’t buy anything with card below 10 dollars which is insane

I ordered flautas and it was straight up burned, charred, and hard as a rock. you cant even bite into it. I was excited to eat too cause the top looked so good with lettuce, sour cream, and tomatoes. I was quite disappointed. tonight I go to sleep hungry rip

Ordered a steak burrito on my lunch break at work so I could keep working while I waited in my food, got here surprisingly quick, granted I work relatively near but I was still surprised with the service time. The burrito was delicious, the steak was tender to the perfect degree and had flavor, the whole order was packed really well which gave me relief, most places packed food horribly and by the time it gets to me it’s a mess but here it was actually packed pretty well. I was really satisfied with service and the overall quality of everything. I def recommend this place.

Came here cause my schedule limits me going out during a majority of the day, despite it being 1 in the morning a waitress sat me and served me throughout my meal with amazing service and hospitality, I had steak taco dinner with an horchata, the taco dinner was pretty good which surprised me because im typically picky on my how my steak is but this taco dinner surpassed my expectations, the rice was fresh and hot and the beans had a nice consistency, the horchata was also good. Overall I’d recommend especially for any students who need a late night meal after studying.

La carne tiene el punto de cocción perfecto, jugosa y bien sazonada. Se nota que utilizan ingredientes frescos, especialmente en sus salsas, que tienen ese toque picante justo para elevar el sabor sin opacarlo.
