Pupuseria Rosita is one of the best taco truck in Oakland. The service is fast,the people are super nice, and the food is just plain delicious and has tons of flavor. Theres an area to the side with a tent,tables ,and chairs if you want to eat your food then and there. Usually they have 3 flavors of aguas frescas daily so dont miss out on that to go along with your order(last time we ordered a horchata and also their watermelon one). I always order their chicken tacos with everything on it,thats my favorite of theirs

Simply the best! Their pupusas are so delicious and fresh and they have so much variety! Tamales, quesadillas, platanos, and fried chicken plates! Very much a fan, and they also run a super friendly and clean operation!

As 2023 presses on I continue to try new places to eat. Today I stopped here for some tacos. The parking was fine (due to the fact it was mid day). It's conveniently next to a local liquor store just in case you want additional snacks. I purchased 3 tacos (beef, shrimp and chicken). The shrimp was the best taco though it was 2 dollars more. The only downside to this place is that they don't sell chips and salsa. That's a must for me

Great service and delicious food. There’s a spot in the back to eat your food and a liquor store right next door in case you want a little something extra.
