Reviews
"Better than expected. The ladies are holdin it down in there. Carne Asada was on point, very tasty, not dry or bland. Chicken was just right too. Friendly staff and it felt like i was out of the country for a second. That's a good thing lol"
"This place is a hidden gem. I have been going here years and the staff are always great. They communicate with you well and serve you in a timely manner. The food has always been consistently great. They have the best carne asada burritos in Oakland hands down."
"Vegetarian burrito here was at the bottom of the taste scale we have experienced so far: All ingredients tasted at least day-old, the lettuce was yellow and dry, rice-beans-cheese were mushed together beyond recognition, and the salsa was way too spicy (we had asked for something mild, like pico de gallo). In addition, they had no black beans, just pinto or refried, and my son ended up with stomach cramps all evening. Minor irritants were that it took comparatively long for the burrito to be done (especially since no other guests were waiting to be served at the time); the outdoor table at which we waited was sticky with food leftovers (the server had cleaned other customers' table earlier - why not this one?); the burrito then arrived so piping hot that we had to take it home instead of eating it on the spot; and it was way overpriced, at $14 for a blech basic burrito and a small agua fresca. Speaking of which, that "agua fresca" came in a styrofoam cup (not a green business practice) and had very little strawberry in it, just some artificial-tasting flavor in lots of water. Hm. Not at all what we would have expected from a place with otherwise good reviews, in a Latinx neighborhood. Quite disappointing!"
"Over priced &for the amount of food its not worth it. Was going to eat at the taqueria across from it, but the reviews were better for this one. So it was disappointing&misleading. I ordered chilles rellenos,which in the menu was priced at about $9 and got charged $12. Just two plates&2drinks and it was about $45! Which wouldve been ok if the portion of food was actually a good amount. The food tasted ok&was edible, but definitely not the best. Not worth it."
