Dos Raíces

Dos Raíces is a food truck based in Berkeley, regularly found at Gilman Brewing, whose Baja fish tacos the San Francisco Chronicle ranked second-best in the Bay Area.

Overview

The truck does not keep a single fixed address. It most often parks at Gilman Brewing in West Berkeley, and the Chronicle advises checking its online schedule for its exact location on a given day. The name translates as "two roots," a phrase often used to describe a dual heritage.

Fish tacos

In the San Francisco Chronicle's ranking of the ten best fish tacos in the Bay Area, critic Cesar Hernandez placed Dos Raíces second, behind only Hook Fish Co. in San Francisco. Orders come three to a plate, and what sets them apart is the sauce: a Baja-style crema infused with charred scallions and habanero chiles, which brings both smoke and heat to the fried fish. The listing made the truck one of the few mobile operations on a list otherwise dominated by restaurants.
