Living in San Jose, I've tried many authentic Mexican food, so I didn't expect much from this area…read more but wow, was I proven wrong! The Birria is an must-try. I was initially skeptical of the high price, but the portions are massive and very filling--I was completely stuffed after just two. For the other tacos, the Taco de Pescado (battered fish) was a standout. It was loaded with veggies and paired perfectly with their chipotle sauce. The Taco Patron Shrimp was decent--a simple shrimp and cheese combo--but the guacamole that came with it was great. To drink, the Horchata had authentic, homemade flavor that wasn't overly sweet. It was a little grainy from the blended cinnamon, so I wish it had been strained a bit more, but the flavor was still great. On top of the food, the customer service was excellent, the space was clean, and the overall vibe was great, with full bar. Plus, we got a pleasant surprise when our bill was $1 less per taco thanks to their Taco Tuesday discount! Highly recommend.

No more pico de gallo??!?!?…read more I've been coming to this taqueria for 20 years and the move away from pico de gallo and to only nopales salsa in the chip bar is the worst decision I've ever seen.

The menu was huge, there's definitely something for everyone. Hot dogs, pupusas, burritos, soup, and even ceviche. I also really loved the free chips and salsa bar! The loroco pupusa had a generous amount of loroco in it. Most places I've been to are pretty stingy with that part. The nacho fries were so big, could easily feed 3 people. The staff were super busy in the kitchen so they were fairly hands off other than taking your order. There's a pretty small seating area so if you want a table, be prepared to wait. Especially if it's busy!

When I walked in, I was the only customer there, but the chef immediately greeted me with such a warm and welcoming attitude that it instantly made me feel comfortable. He took the time to give me suggestions and made the experience feel personal instead of rushed. I ended up getting the chicken sandwich with fries, and wow... that sandwich was incredible. Every single bite was dripping and oozing with flavor and sauce in the best way possible. The chicken was juicy, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. It honestly tasted like one of those meals you keep thinking about afterward because it was THAT good. And the fries? Somehow they reminded me of a perfect mix between McDonald's fries and Wingstop fries. Crispy, flavorful, addictive, and impossible to stop eating. What made the experience even more memorable was the atmosphere. While I was enjoying my meal, there was a gentleman in the back playing bongos/music, and it created such a relaxing and unique vibe. The combination of amazing food, warm hospitality, and live music turned what started as a lonely Valentine's Day into a genuinely comforting and unforgettable night. Definitely a hidden gem, and I'll absolutely be back again.

Located in the small shopping area off Contra Costa, right across from Pizza My Way, you will find…read moreEl Aguila Mexican Cuisine. First off, the place is pretty big. There's a ton of seating inside, and everything is very spacious. Though, I do have to say it always feels incredibly empty for some reason and there's never anybody actually inside outside of a few tables, but they do have tons of takeout so perhaps that's the tradeoff. However, don't let the lack of eating patrons inside the place put you off. This taqueria offers a good variety of different options as any taqueria would offer, and many of the options have pictures and stuff with it. The service here is, kind of hit or miss. The people in the front usually aren't overly friendly, and will sometimes feel like they're just there until the clock turns work over. Sometimes they're bordering on rude as they just kind of give you an indifferent stare as you're ordering, or will just feel as if they're half listening and not even looking up. The service was a bit better when I dined in, so perhaps maybe it's just the takeout, although it's usually the same person for both. Price wise, it's certainly not going to be cheap. If you want the best bang for your buck around here, El Aguila probably won't be it as there's a plethora of taquerias in this area. Food quality wise, it's pretty good overall. There are some tasty dishes here that will certainly warrant the little bit of extra cost here compared to other places. Things that I have tried here are the burritos and the torta. The burritos here are yummy as they they will have ingredients inside the burrito that is slightly different than your cookie cutter burrito at any other place. It really does help adds layers of flavor to it that other places do not offer. However, the best part of it is indeed the fact they grill the outside of the burrito to get that nice flakiness that wrap, and makes it a oh so rewarding experience. Meat portions was okay, but wish it had more especially for the cost. The torta I got was pretty good, as the ingredients inside were pretty typical so nothing really stood out. The break was toasted well, but I do wish it was a bit softer as it may have been to toasted. Should be toasted outside and soft inside, but this one just felt toasted all over. The meat portion also suffers from the same issue as the burrito as that it's not as generous as it could be. However, the flavors and taste were fine. It's certainly a nice place for those who want a bit of a different style of their Mexican cuisine. They have some flavors here that will be atypical of most of the cookie cutter taquerias around. While they are a bit expensive comparatively, the portions are actually decent (minus the meats). You can certainly be filled with just a single burrito. Worth a visit.
