…It was on June 2003 when we found this place. This was Macris dream coming to reality, it took us about 45 days to put this nice place back to work, it was a family and friend effort. We are from Ensenada Baja California a very nice place to be, more like Alameda, temperature always on the 70 to 80 degrees, ocean next to us… Beatiful!!!
Ensenada specialty is Fish Tacos, same here “but better”, also the ceviche make with shrimps “alway tasty specially with a cold beer”. Meat for carne asada alway been and always will “arrachera/flap meat” (this is one of the most expensive meat for carne asada, but we dont care as long as our clients enjoy it).
Tamales are also really good, made everyday same as the chile rellenos
Brick-front neighborhood spot for generous portions of burritos & fajitas, plus a chips & salsa bar. Based on 591 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.3 stars. Price $

Yummy street style tacos with very good quality meat and friendly service. They lack the salsa bar but the salsa is really tasty as well. Plenty of tables and chairs inside, outside and back-side patio!! Happy to support this family owned business.

We’ve been looking to find the best burrito in Alameda and our search continues. We ordered two super burritos for take out and we’re very disappointed with the result. It took about forty minutes from ordering to actually getting our burritos. We brought the burritos home to find that none of the “super” ingredients were in our burritos. No guacamole, very little sour cream, etc.

Just moved to Alameda and trying out the burritos in the area. Ordered an asada burrito and it was decent. 14-15 bucks out the door for a decent burrito, but I’m going to keep looking.

I just want to say I’ve been here a couple times and the food has been great. Not sure what happened today but I ordered some Chile Rellenos and they were awful. Had a sour smell to it to. Maybe it’s because I ordered 20 mins before they closed so I probably got something they cooked in the morning. I’m considering never going to this place again, or at least not near closing time…

The last time I went here on May 16th, 2022. I would come here constantly when I was younger, but haven’t tried this place in years. It seems to have gone downhill. I ordered and paid online around 6:20 and came in about 7 to pick up my order. The cashier gave me the run around because my order didn’t print out of their receipt machine, something I as a customer have absolutely no control over. She persisted that they were not going to make my order unless it printed out of the machine. My friend and I argued with her in English and Spanish for about 5 minutes until we asked to speak to her boss. He came out of the back and checked their online ordering app on the store iPad and confirmed that my order was there and they had checked it in already but there was no order made or given out. It seems like she was waiting for us to accept that she didn’t see our order and just leave empty handed. It was $33 for a super burrito, a small burrito, a cheese quesadilla, and 2 drinks. Not cheap and wasn’t worth the money or effort we had to put in to get our food. I wanted a refund, but they made the order instead and it was worse than subpar. Only positive I can give is that it was warm, not even hot. The carne tasted like chicken; my bean, cheese, rice, add sour cream burrito was missing rice; said burrito was sloppy, soaking wet and burnt tortilla, fell apart when I tried to pick it up (which seems like it was on purpose considering we gave the cashier a hard time about not bothering to find our order), and the chips taste like old oil. You will be better off ordering from the ‘Mexican’ fast food location down the street that doesn’t wear gloves. Never coming here again. So sad because the inside of the place is beautiful and spacious! Hopefully they get back to how they were a few years ago; who knows maybe the tamales are still fire.
