They go…read moreout of their way to please you and even make special dishes for me, which I really appreciate. The carne asada tacos and salsa are excellent, and the desserts are a highlight, especially the Mexican gelatin treats with whipped cream and the cheesecake. The place is clean, the service is good, and the music is nice. As someone learning Spanish, I also enjoy practicing with them while they practice their English with me. It is on the pricier side, not a cheap meal, but the food is high quality, often organic, and made from more involved recipes. For that level of cooking, the price feels worth it. Spanish La gente aquí siempre es muy amable y se alegra de verme; siempre me reciben con una sonrisa. Se esfuerzan por complacerte e incluso preparan platillos especiales para mí, y eso lo aprecio mucho. Los tacos de carne asada y la salsa son excelentes, y los postres son lo mejor, sobre todo las gelatinas mexicanas con crema batida y el cheesecake. El lugar está limpio, el servicio es bueno y la música es agradable. Como estoy aprendiendo español, también disfruto practicar con ellos mientras ellos practican su inglés conmigo. No es barato; está del lado más caro, pero la comida es de buena calidad, a menudo orgánica, y con recetas más elaboradas. Por ese nivel de cocina, el precio vale la pena. Putting the price comment last works well. It lets the food, service, and welcome land first, then explains why the bill is higher so it reads as fair rather than a complaint.

The zucchini was cooked perfectly and not overcooked or soggy at all, which made the whole burrito taste fresh and flavorful. We also got the appetizer with the chips, zucchini, arugula, and cheese and that ended up being one of my favorite dishes. Everything paired together really well and had a lot of flavor without feeling too heavy. I also tried the mango margarita with tajín on the rim and really liked it because it wasn't overly sweet. Super refreshing and balanced. The Dude ordered the chicken enchiladas with verde sauce and really enjoyed those as well. Customer service was also really good. They checked on us periodically throughout the meal and everyone was friendly and attentive without hovering. Overall the restaurant felt clean, relaxed, and comfortable. Definitely a spot we would come back to again. Especially a lot of vegetarian options ! Vegetarian approved!!!

I usually meet up with a friend to go for walks and part of our routine is to grab lunch. We are…read morebig fans of street tacos but haven't found one in the Concord area that we really like. We did find one that had excellent street tacos but they were very pricey, three tacos for $16.99 with no chips. I would need to get two orders so 6 street tacos with tax and tip would be well over $40 which is No Bueno. We weren't sure what to expect from La Tapatia but I liked that the menu had crunchy tacos. I ordered a pork tamale, a crunchy ground beef taco and some arroz. My friend ordered a chile relleno and a crunchy ground beef taco. The food came with complimentary tortilla chips and a salsa dip with frijoles. The dip and Chios were fresh and the salsa with blended with frijoles was enjoyable. The crunchy tacos were fried nicely and had a good amount of filling. I thinking about trying carnitas as the filling but there a bit of a charge. The tamale was pretty good. The masa was not too dry or too wet. The meat to masa ratio was about right. My friend liked his chile relleno. The rice was more well done than I usually prefer and needed a little more seasoning. Overall, the food was delicious, service very attentive and pricing was a bit higher than other restaurants but still fair. I plan to take the family next trip and try other dishes. For a good family meal or with friends, drop on in for good food and service. You won't be disappointed.

Feb 2 2025 3.5 stars…read more Lately our go to Mexican eats is Cinco De Mayo in Martinez. Christians-smh. It is Sunday and Cinco is closed. The server and service here at Isla was perfect. I pointed out to he waiter that he had a crumb on his chin and he wiped and chuckled like a nice champ. The music is pleasant but a bit louder than needed so I brought out the earplugs. The entire indoor setup is nice. Our food is arriving after what seems like a long wait meaning either the food is being served fresh, hot and tasty, or we are in for a mediocre experience. Our two plates arrived. Chilli relleno and Grilled chicken enchilada. I'm not a fan of the aesthetics of the smallish squair white plates. Reminds me of trying to look upscale. We own plates like these and that didn't work. Wife's enchilada plate was covered with three hot and very tasty chicken filled food bombs plus sides. The chili plate looked a little weak (too much plate showing) but that was the tastiest chilli relleno ever in 40 years of me enjoying these. Served hot with cheese filled up to the ying yang, an extra spiciness I have never had before that I loved and me wishing I had a spoon to scrape up the end of the sauce. Unfortunately the smallish rice and bean servings on both plates were luke warm and tasted so so. . I had similar hotter to those with tv dinners back in the day. The two plates and a coke at $43 has me scratching my chin on whether we will make that drive again. That is unless it is Sunday. Then possibly. .

Whenever I visit a Mexican restaurant, I always set my sights on the carne asada super burrito. The…read morefirst time I tried it at Isla, however, I was completely let down--the meat was bland and the burrito felt stale. After giving it some thought, I decided to return and explore what it was about Isla that everyone raved over. This time around, I ordered the fish tacos, and I was hooked! Isla's fish tacos are phenomenal--easily the best in the area and a must-have every single time. I usually go for the tilapia, though I've sampled the red snapper as well. They come out super crispy on the outside yet remain incredibly moist inside, with the salsa and toppings melding together perfectly. I also visited their new location today and was pleasantly surprised by the ample parking and comfortable seating. The space is beautiful, making it even more enjoyable to stop by for those irresistible fish tacos. Here's a quick rundown of my ratings: Fish (all varieties): 8.7/10 Birria: 7/10 (good, but not their standout item) Carne Asada Super Burrito: 5.8/10 When it comes to satisfying my fish taco cravings, Isla remains the only choice.

Great food: frescas, entrees and desserts…read more I ordered lengua , pork belly and shrimp cheese tacos. I loved the crunchiness of the pork belly and the flavor. The lengua taco had meat that was tender and delicious. Both tacos were lightly seasoned and not hot. The shrimp cheese taco was my least favorite. The shrimps were small and had no flavor. There was a lot of cheese, but again there was no real flavor that made you want to order it again. I believe if they used large grilled shrimp and no cheese , but grilled onions, this taco would be a hit. The tacos came either a side of avocados, different peppers and sliced radishes. The frescas were made in-house: hibiscus, watermelon and cantaloupe. I ordered the cantaloupe fresca and it was refreshing with just amount of sweetness . My husband ordered the birria tacos and he definitely would ordered them again. He ordered the hibiscus fresca and said it was very good. He wants to go back and try more of their food. We ordered churros which were made in house. They tasted like the churros we had in Barcelona. We want to order this again. Everyone who came with us enjoyed what they ordered. Overall, Tacos El Patron was a wonderful experience because of the quality of their food. We hope to return very soon.

I have to be honest, one morning I was starving and forgot my lunch ao I was forced to order from this place. I ordered a breakfast burrito with papas, huevos, chorizo and frijoles. It was a $12 burrito for something that was the size youd give a kid. I was so disappointed! I would have been better iff elsewhere. I gave them 3 stars for convenience but I will keep trying other establishments in the area that better suit my needs. I hear their birria is what theyre known for. But itll be a while before I head back.

My wife and I took a lil minute to figure out what we wanted prior to ordering and the cashier showed patience. We settled on burritos. I knocked two stars off because they messed up both of orders and that made me a little upset. They remade my burrito completely over, but they did not for my wife. They just gave her what they forgot on the side. She was not happy about it. She ate it anyway. We both agreed that the burritos were cold.. the meat, rice and beans. However, we were not going to complain again. I decided that I would add it to my review. I enjoyed the salsa and chips bar. All the fixings that you needed were found there and you could take a much as you wanted. Overall, we won't be returning back here. It was not that enjoyable.
