Bright-painted shipping containers, string lights, heat lamps, and a chalk-scrawled menu on the door: Tacos Oscar is a taco shop that treats the format as a suggestion. About half the menu goes vegetarian, leaning hard into California produce, and the rotating selection means whatever you order this visit may be gone the next. Weekend brunch pulls its own crowd. The Michelin Bib Gourmand and a spot on the L.A. Times' best California restaurants list give you a sense of where things stand.

Taco de huevo
“You’ll find a petite, homey breakfast burrito and a phenomenal taco de huevo, where a crispy, runny egg is paired with smoky salsa macha and cheddar.”
San Francisco Chronicle -
Egg taco
“The egg taco ($5) is one of the taqueria’s trademarks, a creature from the realm of late-night divine inspiration, where simple elements like an egg and salsa macha play off each other to create genius.”
San Francisco Chronicle -
Baba ghanoush tostada
“Equally ingenious is the smoky baba ghanoush tostada with charred sweet peppers and romano beans.”
