I ordered a burrito here and it was OK. Nothing to go crazy about very average, flavor was bland too, I had to use a lot of salsa. Also DO NOT come around 12pm that’s when all the high-schoolers are getting lunch and it’s obnoxious/crowded. I even called in and still had to wait in line, not worth the wait, I’d recommend going to one of the other Mexican locations in Alameda. The burrito I got was $14 which I also thought wasn’t priced right.

Quite disappointing, we stood in line for almost hour to try their pancakes, was disappointed. Not as tasty as people rave. They did try to accommodate and open the other sections for us to be seated quicker. Food was big portioned. The hashbrown tasted very oily and a weird taste. Hard to find parking especially on weekends

I have been going to this place since forever like when It was formally know as Alameda Taqueria. This is hands down the BEST Mexican food I have ever had. I have never once had a bad experience. The food is always fresh and delicious. The staff is absolutely amazing and not to mention the root beer is the best that I have ever had!! If you haven’t eaten hear then your missing out!!

The best mexican food around! I have been going here for 20+ years, and through a rename and several closing / reopenings the food and staff have been mainly the same. Carne Asada, an Pollo Asado are the best meats in my opinion. My personal order is a Carne Asada Super Burrito with light rice and extra salsa fresca. Both red and green hot sauces are delicious!

This establishment has some of the best food I’ve tasted thus far. The Super Nacho is my favorite. It is a great size and comes with a great deal of food. The cooks are super respectful and great at what they do. Also, shout out to the young lady who takes orders, she is super helpful and suggests the best things on the menu. Please check this place out if you haven’t already.

Wow! The food was great. I love coming across these cute little places. The staff was nice and served us promptly. I had the super burrito with carne And I couldn’t finish it. We also had the guacamole and chips. It was very tasty. There wasn’t any clean tables when we arrived but they were super busy. There is a good selection of food here and you should definitely leave full. It’s located in a good location. The parking is limited but there is a parking garage within walking distance. If you park before 5 in the garage there was a charge.
