Taqueria Cali started the way the best taquerias do — in a home kitchen, with a recipe that had been passed down through generations and a conviction that the tacos should taste exactly like abuela made them.
Today, we keep that same standard. Every batch of masa is mixed by hand. Every chile is toasted and rehydrated for our salsas. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is frozen.
We opened our doors in San Jose because this city deserves a taqueria that treats every taco like it's the last one on the grill. That's not marketing — that's just how we were raised.
Every salsa is made from scratch daily. Roasted, blended, and ready — pick your heat level and let us know.
Tomatillo-based with jalapeño and cilantro. Bright, tangy, and the perfect partner for carnitas.
Dried guajillo and pasilla chiles, roasted garlic, and a touch of vinegar. Deep, smoky, and balanced.
Fresh habanero, mango, and lime. Sweet heat that builds slowly. Not for the faint of heart.
Diced tomato, white onion, serrano, and cilantro. Simple, crisp, and always fresh. Made to order.
Smoked chipotle blended with crema and a squeeze of lime. Cool, smoky, and irresistible on anything.
Sweet mango meets salty chamoy with a chili finish. Perfect on fruit, elote, or as a taco topping.
