Food is quite tasty especially with the orange sauce. We generally order the following items: veggie super nacho, veggies corn quesadillas crispy, potato and egg burrito from the breakfast menu. Service was fast and order placement over call was smooth. The only issue is with the packaging, food gets soggy by the time it gets home. They need to figure out ways to keep crispy items, crispy. The location is in the middle of many hotels... pretty safe and the ambience is not bad either.

Whenever talking about the best burrito places in San Jose, La Victoria is commonly mentioned. On my list of best burrito places you can find that number two or three, depending on which location you go to. This particular location can be a little bit hit or miss, but most of the time, they get things right.
I can't place it at number one because the item that really makes the meal is the orange sauce. The orange sauce here is so popular that it's even sold separately, and it adds the majority of flavor to most of the dishes. I can't recommend the orange sauce for everyone because it's mayo-based, and on the spicier side. So, if your stomach is particularly sensitive, you may want to avoid it. If you're into spicy things and looking for a good burrito, this is the place.
I hate to admit it, but there are some downsides to the ordering process. This location has a self-ordering system where you can pay without talking to anyone, which can seem like less of a hassle than dealing with the staff here. Even when I paid with a credit card, the person taking my order conveniently shook the tip jar, and I couldn't help but think that's something you should have integrated into the credit card payment system.
Asking for a tip on digital devices has become a hot topic lately, but considering how many Americans are only carrying plastic, it seems a bit shortsighted not to have a point of sale system that asks for one every single time. Whether or not customers believe it's okay is a debate for another time, but it seems to be an overall benefit to the people working there, so I can't really find many drawbacks to having it.
When it comes to the burritos, they're not the best in my opinion, but they're pretty high up there. The one advantage La Victoria has over some of the other burrito places in the area is that they serve breakfast. If you're looking for a delicious breakfast burrito, there's probably no better place in town than law. Victoria.

It was fine. I’d eat here again (after visiting the bowling alley next door) but not go out of my way to eat here.
✅good size carne asada chunks
✅good size portions
✅friendly and fast service
✅very clean dining room and bathroom
✅orange sauce
❌round tortilla chips
❌beans on tacos
❌guacamole very liquidy
❌didn’t give us lime wedges
The orange sauce is the biggest rave but the food accuracy was a big miss. My order was not correct, I asked for the super veggie burrito but they gave me jalapeño and cheese. It was pretty loud and also the plastic barrier they had didn’t help out either. The service is fast and atmosphere is really busy.
La Vic has been my go-to Taco place over the years! Living in the south bay we are spoilt for choices when it comes to good Mexican food and La Vic is consistently one of the standout ones! Tacos are really good and coupled with their special Orange sauce (and the green salsa), they become out of this world! My little one devours their Cheese Qaseldias. Easy parking, open late, quick service and yummy food - what's not to like!
I tried the plates, you can choice meat you want.
There are bean, rice and tortillas in the plate.
The whole plate very large, I can share it with my wife.
Being a lover of tacos, I was delighted to see a taco spot closer to where I am staying. The restaurant is large and clean with good options. I went for a grilled chicken super taco and the veggie taco. They come very stuffed and wrapped in paper. I liked the tortilla combination. The grilled chicken was great. They put rice, beans, salsa, guacamole and sour cream on the tacos.
It was nice to eat outside as the weather was lovely.
Maybe don't put saucy fries on paper that dissolves into the food.
I was eating the paper liner of this super nacho fries.
Otherwise the food is good.
Also why the beans on tacos. They add beans to everything to fluff it up I guess.
Orange sauce is good too.
Great taqueria with plenty of options! I've now been to this exact same location twice and it was just as good the first time. I got five tacos in total between the two visits, al pastor, carnitas, Chile Colorado, buche (pork stomach), and veggie. Rookie mistake, the first visit I got three tacos thinking that I would be hungry and would order more afterwards. The tacos were stuffed with so much meat and beans and other filling that after two I was already full, but powered through and ate the last one with the coke. It was tasty, but it definitely left me in a food coma afterwards. Second visit, I wised up and got a veggie taco and a super buche taco. Tasty without the stomach ache from being too full. All in all great experience both times, tasty food, fair price, great selection. I will definitely be back soon.
They have the best breakfast tacos. Fairly large in size. 2 filled me up and the chorizo was my favorite!! Also their orange sauce is spectacular. Get an extra for sure!!
