Taqueria San Jose

Great authentic restaurant in Goshen. Living in California I have my share of authentic Mexican Restaurants at my finger tips, so I was hesitant on Taqueria San Jose. My concerns were unwarranted.  The tacos (lengua and pastor) had so much meat on them that I was stuffed. The place is clean and the staff very friendly. I will surely have to return.

I had high expectations for Taqueria San Jose. With the plethora of choices to eat Mexican in Goshen and around Elkhart County I guess there has to be a real dog in the bunch. The restaurant itself was very clean and service decent but those are the only notable high points. The food is where the real issues lie here. I hadn't ever seen pink chorizo in my life(nor do I ever want to see it again) until I had my plate sat in front of me. The al pastor was gamey and very chewy and the asada was incredibly dry and comparable to chewing cork board. My tortillas were either stale before they got put on the grill or were left on for a ridiculous amount of time but I'm guessing it was probably both. The sauces for the tacos were rather bland and didn't add anything to the meat. With so many wonderful taquerias around the area that do things right it is wrong to frequent this one.

Very fresh and authentic Mexican food, in a cute and clean diner. The food was very good, including the menudo. Also very affordable prices and friendly service. Would come again!
