Recently we told you that after closing in 2008, El Gigante Burrito has reopened in a new location. Stop in for tacos, tortas, burritos, gorditas, quesadillas, birria pizza, and more.

Add this one to the list as well! After serving up authentic Mexican eats at 1338 S. Division Ave. in Grand Rapids for more than a decade, Taqueria San Jose closed in 2021. Later a new spot — Taqueria Yangas — took over the building, while Taqueria San Jose relocated to Edmore, Michigan.

Best news in years!

Anna left a glowing review,

I was honestly devastated when Taqueria San Jose closed in Grand Rapids. I have spent the past several years looking for a place that could maybe be as good with no luck. A lot of good places, but none that had what TSJ had. Their nopales tacos are truly the best I have ever had.
