Chilaquiles red .
Mirna P.

Ambiance quite not to busy. I was excited to try this place considering the good reviews and food looks great from the pictures . Came on a Wednesday to avoid busy weekend crowds got my favorite chilaquiles and service was ok felt a bit rushed but I by passed that food looks amazing but was lacking flavor their was no seasoning at all and not a well rounded dish I ate half and left the rest however chips and salsa were delicious! I will give it another try but maybe pick something more common like tacos or burritos.

Omg i haven't been in a while and omg i forgot how delicious it is ! The service is still amazing and the menu has changed a little so many great options! The burritos are huge omg so worth it and the nachos are soooo good. They do have Taco Tuesday specials too.

Quesabirrias tacos

I found this spot near my hotel, which was the courtyard in Richmond and when I parked, I actually hesitated to go inside. The shopping center that it's in is pretty much abandoned and the outside of the restaurant wasn't too pleasing to the eye. When I walked inside, it's actually really small with three tables and not too pretty inside. But I wasn't ordering to eat there so it's all about the food. . I was pleasantly surprised with my food. I ordered the quesobirria tacos. They were very generous with the meat and cheese. The shell was so crispy without being oily. It was super delicious. Service was quick and friendly.

Still the same flavors! I swear the burritos have gotten bigger (though prices have increased 2-3 dollars since my last visit...). Salsas are a great accompaniment to the burritos. Definitely want to try their Birria Pizza someday!

Authentic mex! Pueblo style, don't let parking lot deter you! Highly recommend. Salsa is ! Will be back

Pizza Birria
Catherine T.

Get the Pizza Birria - it took me us to Flavor Town! She's a pricey one at $40 but we were curious first timers and it proved to be quite worth it! Chef is very generous with the pulled stew beef and birria sauce.

I have uploaded some pictures and attached notes so you will know what to expect. Overall 5 stars for the food. It's more expensive than some places but worth it if you will pay for quality taste. We had the carnitas super burrito for just under $19 tax included.

Birria Plate
Sorayah H.

The birria had NO flavor!! I visited this spot on a quiet Tuesday afternoon, and while the service was quick and the portions generous, the food itself was disappointing. The birria lacked any flavor. I even grabbed my own hot sauce from the car, but it didn't make much of a difference. Overall, the experience was just okay at best.

Carne asada Super Burrito

My husband and I were starving after picking up some items that we purchased near by. After a brief Yelp search, we decided to dine at El Sabor De Guadalajara, which is across the street from where Hilltop Mall used to be. The restaurant is cozy with limited seating, so just keep that in mind if you plan on dining here. Upon entering, we approached the cash register where one of the young workers was doodling on one of the ordering sheets. She was quite knowledgeable of the menu and even brought our food out to us once it was complete. The food is delicious! My burrito and my husband's street tacos were well seasoned and quite savory. They give you decent portion sizes as well, so we left full. Overall, El Sabor De Guadalajara has delicious food! Give it a try whenever you are in the area and craving Mexican food!

SUPPORT FAMILY OWNED LOCAL BUSINESSES! Wanted to try someplace other than my go to's and stumbled on this gem. Ordering is easy. They have menus on the wall, tv, and a classic menu. We ordered the quesabirria and a veggie burrito. Very fast service. From order to take out, I was gone in less than 15 minutes. For the vegetarians, the rice is made with chicken broth, the beans are vegetarian. Made with fresh ingredients, I even had cucumber in my burrito which added a mind blowing crunch to it. Dine in or take out, cash or card, serves breakfast, parking lot.

Menu (October 2022)

We drove out to this little taqueria not quite knowing what to expect, but also having sligthly elevated expectations based on what we had read thus far. We decided to go for the much talked-about quesabirrias, and each of a chicken taco and shrimp taco. I am no expert on quesabirrias, but all I can wholeheartedly vouch for is the deliciousness of this dish. I guess it's not easy to go wrong with melted cheese on seared toasty tacos enveloping very well seasoned shredded meat. But I tell ya, the flavour profile got amped up when you dip it in the "au jus" (if one can call it that) and have all that spicy greasy juiciness dance with your tastebuds. It's definitely not for those on a diet, but it's ok as a once-weekly taco-treat. Speaking of tacos, the lovely seared chicken in the chicken tacos weren't bad either. I loved the seared diced chicken but it could have used some salsa on it. It was a little dry but full of flavour nonetheless. The plump and juicy shrimp taco was not lacking in succulence. It, however, could have used a little more sear, and a slightly tangier salsa verde. Which leads me, last (as well as the least), to the Chips and salsa. The green salsa was mild and runny, while red had the right texture and packed quite the punch. Alas, most of the tortilla chips were shattered and at least a third of it was just odds and ends. But hey, we didn't come here for the chips and salsa (though it wouldn't hurt to improve those). Come here for the food. Not for the ambiance. Cards accepted. Order at the counter and they will bring the food out to you. There are a couple of tables outside (and it can get pretty fumy inside when they fire up a that griddle).

Craving Quesabirria I usually go to my favorite spots but decided to give a chance to a local shop. Yelp to my rescue Once I arrived tons of patrons in for lunch. Seating is limited but you can always opt to sit outside. Results= great flavors and satisfied

A local family-owned spot serving fresh, well-seasoned seafood…read more Mississippi Catfish in El Sobrante has been around for years and was previously located in Richmond. It's always nice to support a family-owned business that has built a strong local following. I ordered the D & D plate which comes with prawns, hush puppies, and 2 sides- I ordered fries. Everything came out fresh, hot, and well seasoned. The red snapper was cooked perfectly crispy on the outside while still tender inside, and the seasoning was just right. The hush puppies and fries were a great addition to the plate and paired well with the fish. Simple, flavorful food done right. Service is excellent. Definitely feels like family Loved the meal and will definitely be back.

We've tried the fried catfish, snapper, prawns, and chicken, and everything has been fried and seasoned to perfection--crispy on the outside, flavorful and tender on the inside. The portion sizes are generous for the price, making it an even better value. If there's one small drawback, it's the limited side options--fries, potato salad, or coleslaw. A few more choices would make the experience even better. Overall, we highly recommend it. You will definitely leave satisfied!

Its a casual, Korean cafe located in a small strip mall and adjacent to Hernandez Park. The name is a bit of a misnomer. Yes they specialize in a variety of bone-in, Korean Fried Chicken with multiple flavor options. But turn the menu over and you'll see even more options for bento boxes, tofu soup, hot stone rice dishes (dolsot) and more. Service was fast and friendly, but don't overstay your welcome since the restaurant is small and very popular. Bulgolgi bento was awesome - it comes with ita own banchan, japchae, fried gyoza, and a food portion of beef that our 6yo som devoured by himself. Chicken Dolsot was also a solid dish - I like having veggies, carbs, and proteins all in one on a sizzling bowl with a fried egg. Wife and her bestie shared a half order of soy garlic KFC, which were large, crispy, and sticky. Its my favorite KFC flavor and wished we got a full order so I can have some more, LOL. Definitely keeping this place in mind for future visits. A good dinner takeout place if I ever need to work late from Richmond during evening commute.

Okay, Rockin' Crawfish!…read more I recently heard they were under new ownership, and I'll admit I was a little skeptical. But I decided to give them a try, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. Our group ordered just about everything on the menu, and honestly, almost every dish was a hit. The only item that fell a little short for me was the fish sauce wings--I think those could use some improvement. Other than that, everything was flavorful and well-prepared. The service was also incredibly pleasant. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely sweet. While we did have to ask for a few things multiple times because they were initially forgotten, they were always quick to help and eager to make things right. My only real complaint besides the wings is the pricing on some add-ons. Charging $8 for six small pieces of sausage feels excessive and is hard to justify, especially when compared to the portion sizes of everything else. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience. Good food, great service, and a noticeable improvement under the new ownership. Despite a couple of minor complaints, I'll definitely be back.

So I know my way around this dish. I ordered to-go 1lb of clams and 1lb of shrimp head-on, mild level, and rockin combo flavor, and an appetizer of Calamari. When I got home, I saw that they didn't give me salt/pepper and lemon, so that was very disappointing already. The food was okay, I didn't really taste the garlic, and towards the end, I could only taste pepper-ish seafood. Unfortunately, it was not a good experience. So bummed because it's near where I live.

We were a group of 10 on a Saturday morning and it was busy but not so crowded, but I did hear it fills up fast later in the day with live music. Foodwise, the food was solid. Like all restaurants these days, prices were a bit high for value, but sigh, that's everywhere. But for middle of nowhere, the food was good! I shared the fish & chips and the baked eggs. The baked eggs were a 3, they lacked something! The fish and chips were 2 big deep fried pieces and delicious fries. More tartar sauce, always, please! I enjoyed the cucumber and watermelon salad the shisito peppers the most! Overall, such a unique spot with solid food. Your paying for vibes and ambiance. We did a little baby "sprinnkle" there and it was the perfect spot!

Solid food, terrible customer service…read more Really disappointing experience. We got there around 2pm, and our server was mumbling, not very personable, and didn't even write down our order. I'm not sure if that's why our food took over an hour to come out, but it definitely made the wait even more frustrating People who sat down after us had already gotten their food, finished eating, and paid by the time we even received our meal. We drove 45 minutes each way to come here, so waiting over an hour for food with no explanation or real acknowledgment was super disappointing!!! What made it worse was that there was no concession or attempt to make up for the experience. When we finally paid and got up to leave, another server rushed over with the POS asking if we had paid. After everything, it just felt like one thing after another. The woman managing was very sweet, which I appreciated, but unfortunately the overall experience was just really poor and absolutely not worth the 90-minute round trip. Also the server who was stepping in to help in place of our original server kept apologizing and let us know the kitchen was slow. What am I supposed to do w that information. For reference we were originally at table 1 and were moved to table 16.

While some of the dishes hit the sweet spot for me, others left me wishing for something different. Our group ordered 6 different menu items to share and everything came out in quick succession: Nam Khao, Yum Pla Muek, Khao Soi, Pad Thai, Som Tum Gai Yang, and Massamun chicken curry. Of these dishes, the star was the Nam Khao. I loved the crunchy little grains of rice and the fermented pork added a nice tangy flavor profile to each bite. It would've been great if the dish had more pork pieces in it though. Yum Pla Muek (squid salad) had a spectacular sweet and sour dynamics overall, but ratio of protein to veggies needed an improvement. Despite the name, the dish felt more like a scavenger hunt for squid pieces hidden inside the sea of cabbage. Khao Soi was great in that the broth leaned more on the clear side rather than being overwhelmingly drowned in coconut milk. Flavor-wise, it was delicious but a bit oversalted for my taste. Pad Thai is pretty decent. The sweet and tangy mix was definitely present and the noodles were cooked to perfection. Somehow, I felt like it was missing something within its aromatics profile. Perhaps the green onions should've been lightly tossed with the noodles at the end rather than sprinkled on top as a garnish. Som Tum was dissappointing in my opinion. Judging from the appearance of the papaya shreds, the preparation process might've skipped the authentic "tum" (pounded) part in the goold ol' stone mortar and pestle. The flavor was also a bit bland and the usual basic ingredients like peanuts, green beans, and dried shrimps, were nowhere to be found. Gai Yang (grilled chicken) pieces were pretty good. However, instead of steamed rice, they really shoul've included sticky rice to keep the dish's authenticity. I wouldn't recommend this dish if you're a die-hard fan of the original version. Massamun chicken curry was a bit too thin in the curry part. I didn't personally try this dish, but the general comments from those who did was that it was just mid. Overall, there's no doubt I'll be hitting Sue's Kitchen up again soon. Service there was quick, attentive, and efficient. Their price-point is also very reasonable for the portion size of the food. I'd recommend this place for anyone who wants quick and delicious Thai-Laotian food in a more quaint neighborhood of East Bay.
