Lodi · Est. on E. Pine St.

Tacos worth
crossing the
freeway for.

A small weekday taquería on East Pine doing the basics very, very well — asada with a real sear, carnitas that drip, and a breakfast burrito locals keep quiet about.

Asada tacos
★ Most Loved

Asada Tacos

Hot griddle, charred edges, plenty of meat. The reason regulars keep coming back.

"Probably the best asada tacos I've ever had." — Mike
Carnitas tacos
★ Don't Skip

Carnitas Tacos

Juicy, generous, and packed in. Even mixed reviews single this one out as straight-up bomb.

"Juicy and lots of meat." — Brandon
Burrito
★ Hidden Gem

The Burrito

Tortilla so fresh it smells homemade. Wrapped tight, no skimping.

"Seriously the best burrito I have ever had." — Nicki
Chorizo
Locals Tip

Chorizo Tacos

Recommended right alongside the asada. Bold, smoky, fully spiced.

"Highly recommend the asada and chorizo tacos." — Alan
Breakfast
Open at 7AM

Breakfast Burritos

Loaded, hand-rolled, and ready before the rest of the block is even open.

"The breakfast burritos are delicious too." — Alan
Horchata
★ Order This

House Horchata

Cold, creamy, exactly as cinnamon-forward as it should be. Get one.

"The best drink I've ever had." — Nicki

02Our Story

A weekday
kitchen on
E. Pine.

Peña's Taquería #2 is the kind of place Lodi locals quietly tell each other about. Tucked on East Pine just off the freeway, the kitchen opens at 7 in the morning and runs straight through lunch — breakfast burritos sliding out the window before some restaurants have even unlocked the door.

The point isn't fancy. It's a charred asada taco, a carnitas that actually drips a little, a tortilla so fresh it smells like it was pressed five minutes ago. We do that, every weekday, and we go home.

Closed Saturday and Sunday. Catch us Monday through Friday.

Lodi has some amazing selection when it comes to tacos and food in general. Peña's has probably the best asada tacos I've ever had of recent. I'm happy that we locals have choices.

Seriously best burrito I have ever had or tasted — the tortilla smells just so fresh I almost think it was homemade. I got Horchata and it was the best drink also. Super hidden gem! You can tell they really take pride in their food.
