    Chile Rellenos, rice and refried beans. Disappointing. #TooGoodToGoApp
    Mia S.

    I found out about this app called TooGoodToGo via an IG foodie in Texas I follow. I decided to download the app and see what was available in my area. The app allows you to reserve surprise for bags for a discounted price. However, with it being a surprise you don't know what you're going to get and it's usually food the restaurant doesn't want to waste. So, pickup times tend to be close to closing. Today I decided to try my luck for a second time with a different restaurant than the first. My son and I both prayed we would not get Chile Rellenos. Regretfully, it's exactly what we got. Another person posted a photo of the same exact meal utilizing the same app. The app was named under their meal. I'm convinced that this is the "go to" meal when using the TooGoodToGo app. The rice was ok, the beans were good, the Chile Rellenos left much to be desired. The Chile Rellenos gave me a headache and left an after taste in my mouth. My son's stomach was upset and it left an after taste in his mouth as well. Needless to say, we are apprehensive about giving this place another try, let alone pay full price for the menu offerings. The ambiance of the restaurant was very casual. Not too busy. Service was friendly and fast. We were greeted immediately upon entry. The food was ready in less than ten minutes and that's a stretch, which leads me to believe everything was premade and warmed up for pickup. No utensils were provided or offered. No complimentary chips and salsa which tend to come with many Mexican meals whether dine in or to go. We tried and it turned out to be a HARD pass for us.

    I ordered from TooGoodToGo and I received the Chile relleno and two sides of rice. I didn't have to wait too long for my food at around 630pm. Service was quick, kind and food was hot. It had the perfect amount of lingering spice and I thought this meal hit the spot! I didn't even know I liked Chile rellenos! I will be back for sure.

    Got this from a catered event. The pictures speak for themselves. The steak was tougher than an UFC fighter and the chicken was worse.

    After living near this restaurant for Years!!!! I finally got the time to try this place out ! We went in an hour or two before closing the service was okay ! Lady was nice and let me tell you ! You must try the pineapple and cactus drink it sooooo damn good !! I got me the seafood soup which was came in a very big bowl worth the price And my hubby enjoyed his camarones a la diabla

    I found this place via too good to go and wanted to try. It is on International Boulevard although I didn't see easy parking near by. The food was fresh and just made in decent sized portion.

We tried coming here on a Sunday and couldn't find parking for 15+ minutes so we ended up leaving. There is some street parking but we prefer to park in the lot. Once you get inside you order at the counter. If you're getting tacos they're all the same price so the cashier will write the number of tacos you bought and you take that receipt and get in the line. Once you get called up you put your receipt in the basket that the worker hands you and tell them what kind of meat you want in your tacos. Today I tried the asada, carnitas, Al pastor, and tripa. They all were delicious, my favorite was the tripa. Portions are good ($4.50/taco) and they have a variety of salsas, jalapeños, limes, etc in the seating area once you exit. I also got a hibiscus (Jamaica) agua fresca that was good. They do accept credit card but they'll charge a $1 fee so try to bring cash if you can. Definitely recommend, this is now one of my top taco spots in Oakland.

    Amazing. Purely delicious, cuuute ambiance…read more They make their own tortillas, which is always a plus. The flavors of each taco were outstanding. I ordered everything on their current menu. Tostada beans gigante, the pork shoulder, barbacoa, charred broccoli, mushroom, and chicken tinga. Just a lil lime on top, and enjoy! I didn't even need to add more salsa, which I would usually add to my tacos at other places. Tostada vegan was my fave. All the meat tacos were also fantastic, all were tender and juicy. Your taste buds bout to be blown away. They have patio style seating in the front and the back. cute for a lil date night without breaking the bank, or to go out and entertain friends outta town, or just to treat yo'self real good. so happy.

    I have been wanting to try Tacos Oscar for a while, and finally got to try it. It was Sunday around…read more11am and there was already a line, but it moved fast. They have outdoor seating both in front and in their back patio, the front being sunnier while the back was cooler and shaded. It does seem like it can get crowded there due to the amount of customers who may choose to eat here instead of takeout, though. The food came out within 5 minutes. They also have a self-service water pitcher, and pitchers of half-and-half and oat milk next to it, which I assume is provided for those who get coffee (I didn't read through the entire drink menu). I got the vegan breakfast burrito, which has pan fried potatoes, roasted peppers and onions, mayocoba beans, chile morita mayonesa, avocado, corn, cilantro in a flour tortilla and it contains soy. It was savory, just a little bit spicy but tolerable for someone who can handle just mild level so I felt it was a good addition for providing more flavor given vegetarian burritos can otherwise often end up very plain. Quite a bit of avocado. I liked the potatoes and beans, and the insides didn't feel too mushy texture-wise. Admittedly not the hugest quantity for a burrito of this price ($15 before tax/tip) but I appreciate that they have several vegetarian and vegan options on their menu. I also ordered the strawberry agua fresca - listed as agua de fresca on the menu and this is the only flavor available, for $6. It was pretty good, fruity and sweet but not overwhelmingly so. I tried some of the chips and salsa morita that a friend shared with me, and thought it was decent - they give a massive quantity of chips (it would be good for sharing with a group) which are crispy and lightly salted, and the salsa is tasty and very mild in spice level.

The whole team carries that same energy; they're always happy to receive you like you're family. Let's talk FOOD. Where the culinary ways of Mexico and California intersect. Exquisite!!!! Thoughtful!!! Beautifully presented!!! The flavors are layered, the spices are intentional, and the details in every dish keep me coming back. I honestly haven't made it past ordering the roasted chicken, the signature salad with seasonal fruit, and those carrots! Listen, you may think, "Carrots? Really?" YES. Really. These carrots come surrounded by black beans in a chili sauce, topped with toasted almonds. I've never tasted anything like it. It's one of those dishes you think about later. Perfect for everything: Girls' night (like we did this past Friday), birthdays, graduations, date nights, I've even come solo. The food and service are that good. And I have to give a huge shout-out to Estilo, one of my favorite servers! He always welcomes every guest like they're his favorite person in the room. He talked us into getting the beets, and they were ON POINT. He checked on us throughout the night, joked with us, and honestly enjoyed our table just as much as we enjoyed having him. He even said, "You all look so great, let me take a picture of you!" and captured such a sweet moment. They've got indoor and outdoor seating, great vibes all around, and THE BEST tortilla chips you will ever have. I recommend making a reservation, however, they do take walk-ins. If you're in the San Francisco Bay area, it's a must! You'll definitely thank me!

I'll be honest: I came in to the dinner a little skeptical at the slightly lower reviews, but seeing that most of them were chalked up as service qualms (and being used to Chinese restaurants), we opted to give it a go. And boy, the food was t.a.s.t.y! Pozole and the carrots and beans were the highlights of the meal, both coming with a super smokey and fiery chili that we absolutely adored, but everything else we had was enjoyable, and not overly seasoned, which is always the concern when we go out these days. I can see where some of the service complaints might have come from because the staff seemed pretty slammed and harried, but we actually found the service to be quite friendly. Accessibility: Outdoor seating is technically accessible, not not always comfortably so. Some tables are situated on slightly-too-steep inclines, which means you may be scrunching or bracing for the entirety of your meal.
