Taqueria Tlaquepaque, in San Jose, has been a fixture for 35 years, evolving from a simple taqueria to a full-service restaurant. Founded by Ubaldo Navarro-Castillo, who learned cooking from his mother in Mexico, the restaurantâs authenticity shines through its extensive menu. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, which drastically reduced their workforce, Navarro-Castillo remains committed to delivering quality Mexican dishes. His dedication to culinary excellence, started in childhood, continues to resonate with loyal patrons at the Willow Street location.
"I learned to make Chorizo con Huevo old style from her. That was where my dream started, and most of our recipes came from there."
"We had tacos, burritos and quesadillas. Just basic Mexican plates. Then we started making different kinds of enchiladas, but the menu was not as big as it is now."
