Food was delicious, especially the steak Fajita and steak burrito. Well priced and good portions! Service was good and friendly.

4 stars but only cause I really like the wet burritos and the staff there are pretty nice and friendly. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but when you go inside, it looks like a diner lol They have a big menu too, from Mexican and American style breakfast (pancakes, french toast, omelettes) to dinner, and then some weekend specials like menudo, pozole and birria. Their chips are so good, super fresh and crunchy. They give you a basket if you dine in, but also a small bag if you're taking food to go. I like the salsa that comes with the chips, but they don't give any extra salsa for your burritos... I didn't love that. We got their burrito famoso (wet burrito) and regular burrito to go. Normally a "regular" burrito is just meat, beans and rice but theirs comes with all the fixins. Maybe I'm just not used to the town, cause I always thought super burritos were the ones that came with the whole shebang but starting to realize it's different out here lol I originally wanted al pastor for my wet burrito but they said they were out.. It was Sunday at 5 PM btw. I opted for carne asada for both burritos instead. Both burritos came out hefty but they were packed full of rice. I do prefer more rice than beans, so I do appreciate that it wasn't super bean heavy, but they were pretty stingy with the meat. The burritos themselves don't have any salsa in them, nor do they grill the tortillas well, so the burritos were just pretty soggy. I don't mind that for my wet burrito but my bf wasn't happy about his. I liked the enchilada sauce that was on my wet burrito. It seemed like because they put cheese on top of the burrito, they didn't put any inside, but I feel like for $18 you could really sprinkle a bit in and out lol The two burritos plus a large horchata will set you back a good $42.. sheesssh! Their horchata is decent too, not chalky, but a little watery for my taste. Overall, I would def come back for another wet burrito but I'd request them to add salsa inside, and maybe a couple extra cups on the side for my burrito and chips. Hoping there isn't an upcharge for that. read more

Food is really bad, no flavor ! Huevos rancheros with no sauce. Flour tortillas hard. Will never spend my money there!

I've been coming here for over 15 years and have yet to have a single bad experience, whether it's the service or the food. There's a reason I keep coming back! My go-to order is a burrito Famoso with carnitas, drenched in salsa diabla, absolute chef's kiss. It may be a small, hole-in-the-wall spot, but those are always the best. read more

I been coming for about 15 years Very good service,Nice people ,very friendly and very good food

Traditional Mexican food at its finest , some sweet older Latina Lady's are cooking up a feast in the visible kitchen , anything and everything will be tasty and delicious, from the 4 caminos salad ( add the grilled onions and peppers for added flavor and some heat) to the Breakfast plates like Nopales with scrambled eggs and the Lunch / Dinner dishes like enchiladas and chiles rellenos are all going to make you happy you came here . In the Cold season come for the hearty and warm Caldos , you'll be happy you did. I've been coming here for years and I've never been let down by the food or service . read more

The red sauce amazing and the salsa spicy likevi need fresh too. This place is a gem and they definitely have a new regular customer. read more

Mar y Tierra - hands down the best dish everrrrrr. It's spicy, well seasoned and plentiful delicious.

We've been coming to this restaurant since I was in elementary..I'm 30 years young now...just recently went to take my dad for a father's day lunch...let me tell you this food here is comfort food to the soul. Food tastes the same this whole time, I enjoyed a plate of sopes dad had the fried fish plate (witch of course I wanted some lol) and service is always great and friendly. Hole in a wall type of a place but you will always leave satisfied. read more

4 Caminos Restaurant - Sopes...and a piece of fried fish - Mexican Near Me - Oakland, California

4 Caminos is located on San Leandro b/t 38th and 39th in Oaktown, around the corner from the Fruitvale Bart Station. I came here with a friend after a Raider game, and before heading to Oakland Airport. I saw the siete mares on the menu, and despite the price ($4 more compared to So CA), I decided to go for it ($18.95). My friend ordered the chicken mole w/ rice & beans ($12.95 - not pictured). Both dishes come w/ homemade flour or corn tortillas. 4 Caminos also offers a variety of authentic plates w/ or w/o seafood. The broth of the siete mares was very good. You could taste the fresh vegetables and epazote that infused the broth. However, the fish was not completely de-boned, and there was not that much seafood in relation to the price: 3.5 Stars. My friend really liked his chicken mole. He thought the taste was much better compared to Juanitas in Alameda (late night place we frequent): 4 Stars. Lastly, the chips and salsa were also better quality compared to Juanitas. The ambiance is very quaint, but nothing to speak of. There are 10 tables, 3 booths, and some seats at the counter. You can see plates stacked up high on the counter in front of the kitchen: 3 Stars. The service was not that good. My dish came out way after my friend's, and another couple seated next to us. In fact, the couple seated next to us received 4 complete dishes well before I received my soup. In addition, the waitress didn't check on us and we had to ask for a water refill: 2 Stars. I would come back and try some other plates, but I won't order the siete mares again. The dish took too long, and the cost was too high for the amount of seafood. I can handle the inattentive service. Maybe I'll drink some cervezas next time! LOL!!! read more

Food is good service is a hit or miss depending who is there but there 4 caminos salad is great

Authentic down home food at a "cannot beat" price in an unassuming setting. If eating in the restaurant in person, you can watch staff making homemade tortillas as you eat. read more

This is a hidden gem for sure !! Friendly staff, real good authentic Mexican food. For a decent price. I love their quesadillas order with rice and beans especially because they give it you in a party tray ( Ahahaha yes it's filled) not to expensive either for all the food I share it with my boyfriend and it's perfect. The carnitas burrito is another YASSS for me! I don't like burritos in general but this one takes the place all day! So juicy , yet crispy meat, etc. you know the goodness! But like way better ! Enchiladas verdes were pretty good. The green sauce itself was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Taste homemade not no can sauce.. I usually call to pick up takes 15-20 min not to shabby. I do window tint across the street hehe so it's a short walk for lunch. (: read more

I enjoy coming here for the Caldo de Res. The beans and rice feel light and healthy and the tortillas are the best I've had since my trip to Mexico City. I also got the Pollo a la Plancha last time and was in awe by how much chicken they gave. I left full and satisfied. read more

We went to this Mexican restaurant on Monday due to seeing good reviews on Yelp. The food here made us super sick. Both of us got really bad indigestion and diarrhea almost instantly. I'm not sure what oil they are using but they really need to be careful. I'm not coming here again though. read more

It really depends on what you order, so you may be disappointed but overall it is one of my go to places when I'm in the mood for a huge Chile Verde or Carne Asada burrito. You need to request cheese, sour cream and guac but both of these are amazing and well worth the $12 price tag. I've had the spicy shrimp which was not good at all and the steak fajitas were very filling but mediocre in taste. It's very popular with the locals and usually pretty busy so I usually order to go since it takes about 15-20 minutes I like to phone in my order but it is definitely worth the wait for their burritos. read more

Good service; fresh ingredients; food is a bit underseasoned but easily remedied with salt, the offered salsa and Tapatío. Will ask for pico de gallo next time. Pescado frito a la diabola was perfectly done when asked for "not too crispy"! Will return for that and the housemade corn tortillas. Really liked the crispy masa of the sope too read more

My co-worker suggested that I give this local Mexican restaurant, which was near the Fruitvale BART station a try. Located about three blocks away on San Leandro St, this non-discreet place has a parking lot for about a dozen or so cars. We were greeted upon entrance and said we could sit at any available table. The small restaurant has about a dozen tables and it was definitely a local place. A family of six was at one table and the rest of the patrons were locals. A true local Mexican restaurant. After getting our drinks and the chips and salsa, I ordered a shrimp burrito. It was a large size burrito and can't imagine the size of the super burrito. Good amount of tasty shrimp with cilantro and the rice was soft and buttery tasting. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4-caminos-restaurant-oakland?select=Z8hu6jPSzicbBzh94D24Sg#QuQ5p9mbEoKRI9Q1_THBRg) I'll be back to try their other offerings from their extensive menu. read more

When I come to Oakland, I'm schooled but not in a bad way. I learned something very interesting from a very special Chica in my life. I learned that St. Patrick's Day is best spent in a Mexican Restaurant when you want to avoid the crowds. We weren't in the mood for a full-on meal but definitely a snack was in order. So to satiate our urge, we went for flautas (can't remember what meat we decided on) with rice & beans along with shrimp tacos. All of the favors were outta this world and about as authentic as you can get. Sure the neighborhood isn't the best but I was able to look past it, so can you if you're really wanting the good stuff. Now I'm curious about those super burritos, hmmmm... read more

4 caminos is one of those little hole in the wall joints with great food. They have been around forever... they have the best wet burritos in town... matter fact they have the best wet burritos ever!!! Also they have the best salsa ever... they have good customer service and their restaurant is clean. I like how the kitchen is exposed to the public so you can see what's going on back there and makes you feel comfortable about how your meal is being prepared, it also gives it a very homei vibe. The only down fall is that the restaurant is a bit small. So all in all 4 caminos is a great spot to get some authentic Mexican food. Not a fancy place but great food. P.S. their micheladas are pretty good too read more

4 Caminos Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Oakland, California

To make it simple, get the "Burrito Famoso Bañado A La Diabla", if you like spicy food, this is for you! Get it with carnitas, the carnitas are so tender and crispy all together, so good! I usually get a side of carrots and jalapeños to compliment the burrito! Highly reccomend these burrritos people, this is what I get all the time, and NEVER DISSAPOINTS! read more

I sat a watched them serve Latinos 1st. The manager today acted like they didn't see me. she made a fuss over the table that came in after me. I complained, she got defensive and roles her eyes. They can care less how they treat blacks. They are only concerns with their own race. read more

What I Liked: - Parking and ample indoor seating. - Chips and salsa - The regular burrito is the size of a guinea pig ... the super burrito is the size of my forearm. - Watching my friend eat the entire super burrito without breaking so much as a sweat. - Extensive menu so something for everyone. What I didn't like: - Only 1 round of chips and salsa which we consumed before orders were taken. They never brought us more. - TV was turned on way too loud ... but maybe I just notice it because I can't understand Spanish. - Bathrooms were clean, but every time the doors opened, I could smell the Lysol. I had the chili verde which was pretty good - standard, but it used much more fattier pieces of pork than I'm used to. Probably not a place I'd go out of my way to visit, but it was inexpensive and not bad. read more

May have the best smothered burrito in the east bay. I also enjoy the Mar y Tierra , served with fresh hand made tortillas.

Food is good here, service is fast which makes it a nice spot to stop for a quick lunch. Today I had mar y tierra it was bomb but it was also very spicy!!! The jamaica is good here as well. Overall good little spot to checkout. read more

With all the famous or I would like to call more familiar Mexican food spots around the area, this particular one is a hidden gem. I tried it once several months back as I moved new into this area and from then I have been a regular. I love their caldos in particular. Everything else like their plates, burritos and tacos are really good and don't forget to try their breakfast plate. They are simply Bomb.com. read more

My sister and I decided to try this hole in the wall place one day because we pass by this place everyday going to the post office for our company. We called and asked what time they opened and they said 8am...I was like wow that works our for us. so, we ordered 2 Al Pastor Supper Burritos with crema and 2 aguas de horchata. Lady said be ready in 15 min. NOT bad. So i took my trip to the post office on 34th and when I got back order was ready. I think maybe the agua de horchata is a little pricy maybe only because I am use to this one spot we like and the large is very cheap like 2 bucks this place i think charges like 4 buck or so for a large. Still not bad. Anyway the burrito had a very good taste it was delish. The water was also very tasty. I like this place a lot. Maybe next time I will order something different to switch it up. Overall i really do recommend this place. read more

Small portions , bland. Not authentic Mexican food if you speak english even if you're Mexican! I have gone a few times, and when I speak Spanish I get ok food. When I don't I get smaller amounts, and charged over twice as much for certain things. Not recommended at all. read more

Excellent authentic Mexican food, with good sized portions. I order here regularly, it is one of my favorite spots. Their homemade tortillas are unlike any other, you can taste the effort put into preparing the food. If your looking for legit Mexican food in Oakland , try this place! read more
