Welcome Watsonville Munchiess: Birria Pizza And Crispy Cheesy Tacos
There is a new food truck in Santa Cruz County, and it is doing something wildly dangerous in the best way possible. Birria pizza and crispy cheesy tacos have officially entered the chat, and they are coming in hot.
Santa Cruz, say hello to Watsonville Munchiess, a family owned food truck that clearly takes their food seriously, especially their birria.
You can tell right away that this is not an afterthought recipe. It is the kind of thing they have been dialing in for a long time.
They are serving classic quesabirria tacos with consomé, and yes, they absolutely deliver. Rich, beefy, dunkable, and comforting in the way birria should be. But the real reason you need to find this truck is the birria pizza.
The birria pizza comes loaded with meat and cheese, so much that we did not even consider doubling the protein. The birria was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor, and the cheese situation was already out of control in the best possible way. Every slice held together and somehow still felt indulgent without being sloppy.
Then there are the crispy cheesy tacos, which deserve real attention. These are not street tacos. These are hefty, meaty tacos wrapped in a crunchy cheese shell thanks to a proper cheese skirt. That crispy edge adds texture and richness and turns a familiar format into something you actively crave again.
Here is the move. Bring your friends. Drive to the liquor store. Walk over. Order the birria pizza and the crispy cheesy tacos. Eat. And realize you have a new favorite food truck.
