My go to spot every time I'm in the area. They recently renovated and took the restaurant to another level! The furniture is upscale and unique. For now, we ordered at the counter (next to their full bar!) and they delivered the food to us. They said it is soon going to transition into a full-service restaurant. The taco patron and birria taco were large in portion size that I could not finish it. The sauce bottles are a perfect size to hold in your hand without over pouring too much. They also have free sides including refried beans, cactus, radish, and onions. Can't wait to come back to experience their full-service!

This place has been completely remodeled and the staff makes you feel like you're a guest in their home! This is my adult son's favorite Mexican place in all of the East Bay. The rest of the family had never been so we decided to go together for Cinco da Mayo. It was PACKED but the team handled it like pros. They told us how long the food would take before we ordered and then they kept bringing more water, chips, and salsa and making sure we were ok until the food arrived. And the food was right on time even though they were totally slammed. Everything was amazing. I have to say the Birria taco was such a nice surprise. I used the sauce on my burrito and made sure not a drop was wasted. My wife LOVED their jalapeño margarita as well. The burritos and quesadillas are huge portions and so delicious. There aren't as many vegetarian options but a simple meatless burrito or quesadilla is still yummy. Whether you take out or decide to eat in you will love the food. The parking lot is right but we managed to get a spot on what has to be the busiest day of the year so I am sure you'll be fine!

Found this place on Yelp. When we drove up, we saw folks waiting outside, which to me is always a good sign of great food. Walked in and saw all workers busy and hustling. Every table was full. Music playing, not too loud, which gave a great vibe. We ordered food and waited for a table to clear as you seat yourself. There were 8 in our group so the owner helped find us tables as others left. We ordered quesabirria tacos, chicken and asada street tacos, chicken nachos and a fish taco. Everything was super amazing but the quesabirria was fire!!!! So good!!! This is definitely a new favorite and somewhere we will frequent. Hands down five star!!!

Love this place! The food is always good. Now they expanded the restaurant and have a new dining room--AND FULL BAR!!! The food is delicious as always and even though it's still line up and order at the counter--they have servers bringing food to the table and refilling chips and salsa frequently. Food here is 5 stars, service is 5 stars (I really wished they'd just take the orders at the table too since they have so many servers now. I hate waiting in lines for food. Sometimes after a long day...you just want to sit and relax and eat good food, and not have to stand in line). It's such a great restaurant I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for delicious authentic Mexican food.

This is the SPOT! Came here on a busy Friday night, ordered two super burritos and a horchata to go. They got slammed with patrons after we ordered so we waited for quite some time at the bar. Ordered a beer and one of the employees kindly asked us if we wanted chips and salsa while we waited. Took the burritos home and that first bite was so good. All the flavors were so delicious! Giving much recognition to the very spicy habanero salsa (which I wanted to bottle up). I loved it so much but beware, it'll make your mouth go a little numb lol.

i ordered on doordash, was looking for a hearty, delicious carne asada quesadilla and chose this place after looking at yelp pics. this place delivered!!!! it was DELICIOUS, not skimpy like other places. loaded with cheese and their carne asada was perfect, not fatty and crumbly like other places. tasty, thick cuts of meat. they also listened to my special instructions regarding adding a side of extra salsa (THANK YOU EMPLOYEES!) and im pretty sure they gave me two sides of ALL their salsas which was AWESOME! i love trying new salsas and i ended up finishing them all. pico was fresh! as you can see in the pic they really hooked it up! guacamole 6oz (their "small" size) was super generous and the BEST GUAC i've ever had, and i'm picky and have had lots. you can really taste all the flavors even the subtle hint of lime! super flavorful and the taste was just right. oh and they included two sides of chips for my salsas!!!! that was a great touch. this is my new doordash mexican go-to, and if i'm ever in the area i will definitely be stopping by. i just ordered on dd yesterday and honestly might re order today bc i'm already craving their quesadilla lol. might try a burrito too. prices were great. i will be re ordering very soon!!!! thank you owner and employees for a great experience!
