Angelou's Mexican Grill
Angelou's Mexican Grill is a family-owned restaurant in downtown San Jose known for oversized burritos and potato tacos.
Overview
Time Out's 2021 guide to San Jose's Mexican restaurants listed Angelou's Mexican Grill, a family-owned spot downtown. The guide highlighted its specialty burritos, the Moco Loco and the Cali-Moco, as well as its taco de papa, a potato taco. It noted that the restaurant is open daily for breakfast and stays open until midnight on Friday and Saturday nights, making it a late option downtown.
Context
Potato tacos, often fried until crisp, are a common meatless offering at California taquerías. The Cali-Moco name plays on the California burrito, the San Diego-born combination of carne asada and French fries that spread across the state. Sources consulted do not give a street address or founding date.
