Best Hot Sauces from Local Restaurants to Spice up Your Shelter In Place Cooking | Eater SF

"At the 20-plus-year San Jose taco icon I found the creamy orange sauce of legend — a nostalgic taco condiment — and you can buy a 12-ounce bottle for $6 at any La Vic’s location." - Luke Tsai

This location is super rough for Saturday night, so partially my fault. I came by after a night of drinking and La Vic's is one of the few that is open later than others. It took about 40 min to get the burrito after I ordered. $15.26 for super steak burrito was a bit skimpy on the meat/portion sizes It is super slow and packed during this time. Parking can be super tough. In my eyes, definitely not worth the wait.

Tried their Beef Quesadillas, truly one of the best I've had in SF. The meat is so tender, packed with flavors. The whole wrap had generous amount of fillings, all that complemented each other beautifully. This is a very fulfilling meal! I'll come back to try the other items. Also the orange sauce that came with the dish was sooo yummy, it had a nice smokey kick with hints of lime. Such an amazing sauce I'm thinking of buying an entire bottle next time!

Food and drinks: The Flautas -The flautas are excellent. I would says that maybe adding a few more to the order would be killer The Chile Relleno - Not my favorite. I was already kinda full but maybe on a different day it would be better. Still nothing spectacular. In their defense I am accustomed to an elite chile relleno from my mother's cooking. Hence why I decided to try theirs. (I'm on a mission to find one that competes) Agua Frescas Can't go wrong with the Jamaica 💯 Always a good choice! Service and Operations: Good customer service and an excellent late nite option in downtown San Jose. (Please forgive the lateness on this post, have a lot of reviews I must catch up on)

The super flour quesadilla with asada is the way to go! I always make a stop here whenever I’m in town. So glad to see this place still going strong, the food is always delicious and the staff are consistently friendly. Highly recommend!

Great place for a quick bite - not a true “restaurant” but more of a hang-out. Lots of choices, Super Taco is only $6 with whatever meat or Veggie-style, but get the orange sauce, it has a kick, get 2, orange is good! Not much of a wait.

I’ve visited this restaurant a couple of times with friends, and it’s become a must-visit spot for us. The food is consistently great, and the atmosphere is welcoming. Among all the items we’ve tried, the chips and pineapple juice stand out as absolute must-try dishes — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every visit has been a satisfying experience, and I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for tasty food and a chill vibe. Sharing some pictures of what we ordered to give you a glimps

This location brings back great memories from high school. My friends and I used to come here a lot. My siblings and I also frequented this La Victoria location in downtown San Jose. The only issue with this place is you can never find parking. The best thing to do is park far away and walk over or just Uber here. This place is open late and the food is good. I'm just used to homemade Mexican food which is even better but this place gets a pass. The orange sauce they gave is too good to the point that they sell it in big bottles for you to take home. They started the orange sauce trend over fifteen years ago. It had lard or an animal product at first and the people that don't eat last such as myself put in suggestions. The owner or manager took it into consideration. They made a vegetarian sauce and then I think the sauce is vegan now! Yay! All inclusive.

Ordered super burrito. Good size portion. Clean food.. Taste was average at best. Table sauce was bland so that didn't help flavor of food. Would go back again if I was hungry but wouldn't go out of my way.
