The menu is sort of confusing because there is the original burrito (only the veg version comes with avocado, sour cream, and lettuce) and the regular burrito but no listing for a super burrito with all the fixins. They told me it wasn’t on the menu but they sell it. In the end, I got the chimichanga which came with a great, refreshing green sauce.

Found this place via googling “Best Tacos in San Jose,’ and I wasn’t disappointed. My gf however, was disappointed because they didn’t serve enchiladas, but we didn’t google ‘best enchiladas,’ now did we?

Dos tacos de barbacoa con todo. Went there for a quick lunch. I ordered a couple of tacos and an horchata. My coworker had a fish taco and a shrimp taco, it looked good. Mine were tasty too. Good flavor, smelled tasty inside, quick service, nice customer service. Good prices. Not much for decor inside, but that’s not why I go to some of the small taquerias. There’s only 6 or 7 parking spots in back.

Food and service was great and fast! I got the El Pastor plate & it was cheap in comparison to other Bay Area food! So delicious as well! Lastly, the staff was so nice and welcoming. Will be coming back!

Great Mexican food right off the freeway on Old Oakland Road. Love the burritos here as well as the tacos. Favorite is the carne asada burrito with all the extras (sour cream, avocado and cheese). Plenty of parking in the parking lot.

Found this fun place coz it stays open super late. Tried the carnitas burrito and chimichanga so far. The salsa and the meat is super tasty. Guacamole n cheese is the plus menu though – we ordered wrong the first time, so that was a good thing to find out.

I used to live a block away many years ago and this place had excellent food, especially tostadas. I haven’t been here in many years since I moved but was passing through so I stopped for a carnitas super burritto. I noticed right away the place had been fixed up, service was ok and food was ok but not as good as it used to be. The burrito had too much rice and not much meat. It looks a lot nicer now, but the food was a lot better about 10 to 15 years ago when we used to come.

One of the last reasonably priced places in San Jose. A bit run down, they could decorate to make it look better.

The Chile verde kind of salty. Rice and beans were good. Laid back atmosphere but need to have the AC working.
