The chairs were imported from Mexico. Great food and the scenery was magnificent.

I had passed this place a few times in the past and found myself in the area so I called and was greeted in Spanish! Authentic, check. And they were open for dine in, yes!
When I get there I was floored by the decor. If it weren't for COVID-19 I would definitely set up a dinner date party with friends here. Aside from the bright and cheerful setting, it was good to see the place following social distance guidelines.
So let me tell you how pleasantly surprised I was that they have the "fun meats" available that I like to eat. I usually go to SW Detroit, where there's is a large Latin community, to order Tamarindo de agua (tamarind-aide), lengua (beef tongue) and tripas (beef tripe) tacos, and menudo (beef tripe) soup. I was SO HAPPY that I could place this order here as well. And, yes, I ate all of it. 😁 Delicious 😋. I even ordered another taco dinner to go to bring to my hubs- carne asada (marinated beef) and al pastor (marinated pork), we'll see later how much he likes it.
Oh, and while eating my meal I noticed a steady stream of Latin folks come through. It's assuring to see this place is supported by the community. I almost forgot I wasn't in SW Detroit! I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area... I might even bring my laptop too since I saw an outlet next to the booth in the back. 🤓
Update: my hubs liked his take out and wants try this place out in person, so I can't wait to come here again.
Small place but very friendly, "real" Mexican atmosphere, no rice in the burrito ' big plus' for me,,,, now not so good - tacos need more meat in them [ I kno meat is expensive] but they really do need more meat in them if I can count them without touching the taco. Still good though, I'll go back for more.
1st off might want to call before going, hours are different because of Covid.
Good food. Love the decor. Lots of menu choices.
Taqueria San Jose is not only consistently good, but also very affordable and they have great authentic food. It's such a cool little place from their hand carved tables and chairs to the kindness of the staff.
