The Molcajete Mixto was hands down the best I've ever had--loaded with incredibly tender ribeye, perfectly seasoned chicken, flavorful chorizo and delicate shrimp, all sizzling in a rich, flavorful sauce. The tacos de camarón are to die for: perfectly beer-battered shrimp drizzled with smoky chipotle, crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and bursting with flavor. Easily the best shrimp taco I've ever had. And the churros were such a fun presentation--four warm, crisp churros arranged like a little star around a dollop of silky custard in the center for dipping. The perfect sweet finish. Huge thanks to Luis and the crew for such amazing hospitality. If you're in the area, it's a must! 100/10 recommend!!!

The inside has a lot of personality, and the restaurant is very clean and organized. Whenever I eat here, I usually like to get the enchilada combo plate and tacos. The type of meat varies, but I typically like to get carnitas, asada, or pollo. The enchiladas are delicious and I love how they're drenched in sauce. The sides always hit the spot as well--I'm a sucker for Mexican rice and this places cooks it perfectly. I can't believe I only heard about this place recently despite this business being here for a long time. This is definitely a staple in my book now!

You'll find it at the ultimate Taqueria in Vallejo when you visit La Piñata Taqueria. I paid exactly $20 (after tax) for a ridiculously sized burrito that included EXTRA ASADA and some avocado, that as a whole, was nothing to laugh at. In 2026, this might be the ultimate deal you will come across without the requirement of a coupon. Parking is readily available, and you'll notice there's always people waiting for food: a sign the food is worth coming for. My food came with a small complimentary side of pickled carrots and peppers, some onions, two salsas, and a small bag of chips. This really truly is the best in Vallejo.

I used to come here after school exams for burritos and tacos. You can't go wrong with either, but I highly recommend the suadero, their rose meat. It is easily the best thing on the menu. The burritos used to be about 12 dollars and are now around 16, but the quality and portion still make it worth it. I recently came back after about a year and it tasted exactly the same. Their service is always quick despite the long line of people there. Their complimentary pickled onions, grilled onions, and carrots along with their homemade sauces really take the burritos and tacos to another level. They have added more seating so you can eat there fresh and hot. Parking is still tight with only a few spots nearby, but it is worth it for the food.

I'll never forget standing around eating one after another between swigs of Modelo with friends... California tacos have always been generally great, but this place is special. Since Oaxaca, I've only had as good al pastor in Mexico City last year in a similar setting. So I'm super excited and grateful that Vallejo now has its own amazing popup serving these incredible tacos, and more. My husband is a burrito guy with a big appetite, yet the servings are so hearty he can only eat half in one sitting. And my al pastor tacos sent me back to that Oaxaca bus stop with adventures ahead. Sitting on a busy corner parking lot, this place is super popular so expect to wait, plus parking can be tricky. All said, the service is efficient and people are patient to wait for what they know is a good thing. While waiting you can bag up your own garnishes like pico, salsa, pickled peppers, sautéed or raw onions, and more. I saw some people enjoy their food in their cars, but both times we brought ours home since we live close and the packaging keeps everything together well. Truly the most authentic Mexican al pastor and more you'll find in Vallejo.

Then you have customers hyping it up before you order, making my mouth water drool but when you get your order and take a bite you like yuck This is not a 5 place neither is it worth 4 . At best it's rated a 1 . The food is not even seasoned. Yes it's big portions but no season in the taco meat. I got 4 asada tacos and 1 asada torta for the cost of $29 and both orders weren't seasoned. Service was low level. Ambiance is a parking lot. The music was the only thing that was good. I really can't believe people be so excited to be in line for unseasoned food. Never again. So yes this is not a place I'd recommend to anyone.

I love spicy salsa, so I got the habanero in addition to the regular mild red sauce provided with the chips. That habanero salsa is the bomb. High on the list of favorites. And this whole platter only cost me $10

The food truck is parked by the Grocery Outlet parking lot, it seems sketchy but just go during the day if you're not comfortable being at the area.

We order ahead because we're on a tight schedule -- I'm a busy, involved parent getting him to the gym after school. A few weeks back, despite ordering plain chicken, his plate came out with pico de gallo. He won't eat it that way. I didn't have time to drive back, so I let it go. The following week, we ordered in person and the waitress assured me she double-checked the order. My son's meal came out correctly -- but my plate was made plain instead of how I ordered it. Not a big deal. I can eat it. I called simply to let them know there was a mix-up -- not demanding anything, not asking for free food. What I wasn't prepared for was being called a liar. I was told the order was made correctly and that if I wanted it fixed I had to bring everything back immediately -- including the salsas. I explained we were on a time schedule for my son's gym session. Instead of understanding, I was told my "games won't fly" there and that I was being a "Karen" looking for free food. My son was hungry and upset during the call. She heard him. We drove back anyway. I placed the plate on the counter, and once she saw it, the mistake was obvious. Only then did she offer to remake it. At that point it wasn't about the food -- it was about being accused of lying and being publicly disrespected in front of my child. Weeks later, I noticed the order was never refunded. I had to dispute the charge with American Express to get my money back. I've supported this restaurant for years. This wasn't about a wrong plate -- mistakes happen. It was about how we were treated when trying to resolve it. I can't return after being called dishonest and a beggar over a simple order issue. He sido cliente de este restaurante por años. Normalmente voy los jueves después de la escuela porque mi hijo siempre pide pollo simple con papas. Ordenamos por adelantado porque tenemos poco tiempo -- soy un padre involucrado y después lo llevo al gimnasio. Hace unas semanas, pedimos el pollo simple y salió con pico de gallo. Mi hijo no lo come así. No tuve tiempo de regresar y lo dejé pasar. A la semana siguiente hicimos el pedido en persona para evitar otro error. La mesera aseguró que revisó la orden dos veces. El plato de mi hijo salió correcto... pero el mío salió mal. No era el fin del mundo. Yo me lo podía comer. Llamé solo para avisar que había un error, no para pedir comida gratis. No estaba preparado para que me llamaran mentiroso. Me dijeron que la orden estaba correcta y que si quería que la arreglaran tenía que regresar de inmediato con todo, hasta las salsas. Expliqué que teníamos que ir al gimnasio. La respuesta fue que mis "juegos no funcionaban ahí" y que estaba siendo un "Karen" buscando comida gratis. Mi hijo estaba llorando de hambre mientras escuchaba todo. Aun así regresamos. Puse el plato sobre el mostrador. Cuando lo vieron, quedó claro que el error era real. En ese momento ofrecieron rehacerlo. Ya no importaba. No era la comida. Era el respeto. Semanas después noté que nunca hicieron el reembolso. Tuve que llamar a American Express para disputar el cargo y recuperar mi dinero. Un error en una orden es humano. Acusar a un cliente fiel de mentiroso y de mendigar comida no lo es. Perdieron mucho más que el valor de un plato esa noche.
