Red oak grilled trays, office breakfast and lunch, and on-site taco truck service for parties, weddings and corporate events.
Tacos El Gringo has been catering Orange County since 2018, starting at local breweries in Santa Ana. Every meat is grilled over red oak for a smoky flavor you won't get from a hotel buffet or a flat-top. We cater birthdays, graduations, weddings, quinceañeras, baby showers, game days, corporate events and office lunches.
Pick the setup that fits your event: drop-off trays you can order online, boxed breakfast and lunch for the office, or our taqueros cooking fresh on site.
A half tray feeds about 10–12 people and a full tray about 20–25. Meat trays come with warm tortillas, house salsa, onion, cilantro and limes.
