Pair either one with the red salsa, and you really can't go wrong. Oh, and get some horchata--it's great. I've always had friendly, efficient service here. Even when there's a line, the staff keeps things moving, and the food comes out fresh and fast. Okay, it's a taco truck--nothing fancy, but that's part of the charm. Standing outside with your food, soaking in the neighborhood atmosphere, and enjoying authentic Mexican food straight from the grill is exactly the experience you're looking for.

I caught them 30 minutes before they close but that didn't matter because everything was made FRESH! I had the Cesar salad and chicken wings. I have not had wings this good in YEARS!

The workers were very kind also and the inside was very clean - much nicer than I anticipated!

Went in with zero expectations and left planning my next visit…read more Stopped by Tacos Mi Rancho near Lake Merritt and honestly didn't know what to expect. From the outside, it looks like a straightforward taco truck, but wow was I surprised. I ordered the Carnitas Super Taco, which came loaded with lettuce, cheese, cilantro, onions, sour cream, and guacamole. Everything was fresh, well seasoned, and packed with flavor. My only complaint? You only get one taco per order because I definitely could've eaten another. The Kid ordered the Carne Asada Super Taco and before we even pulled away, she was asking for a second one. That's usually a pretty good sign. We also tried the horchata and jamaica, and both were delicious. The horchata was creamy and flavorful, while the jamaica was refreshing and not overly sweet. What surprised me most was how quickly they got the food out, especially considering how popular this spot seems to be. A few things to know: * Cash or Venmo only * Parking can be a challenge, but it's worth it * Keep an eye out for the new speed cameras in the area Their hours are another plus: Open daily, 9:30am- midnight Overall, this was one of those pleasant surprises that reminds you not to judge a place by appearances. Definitely looking forward to coming back.

My go-tos are the Cali-style burrito with asada and the Xingones nachos (with extra cheese). Good quality ingredients and portions that are generous enough that I almost always have leftovers.

Our food came out pretty fast. Before our drinks did, surprisingly. :) The food was good. Nothing extraordinary, but honestly, about what you'd expect from a bar/cantina, maybe even a little above average. Solid food to have while you're hanging out and having drinks. The drinks were the highlight for us. Plenty of choices and a great variety on the menu. I ordered the Paloma, which was good! Refreshing, not overly sweet, and a solid drink overall. I'd recommend Xingones as a cool hangout spot. It's a solid place to go for a good happy hour after a regular day of work, grabbing drinks and food with friends, or hanging out with coworkers. The open space and atmosphere make it easy to sit around and hangout for a while. Plus, there's plenty of parking, which is always a win! Would come back, especially for drinks and happy hour.

Food is always top tier (especially when you tip) ALWAYS tip your service workers!

Not worth $18 for a shrimp burrito…read more Everything better be sourced from the most high end farms to be charging like that. It's cool to charge $15 maybe even $16 tops But $18 is Rape I know my people enough to know that that ain't it. Didn't feel the love in the food. It shouldn't be about the money you charge because you can because you one of the few places in town. Should hold yourself up to a standard regardless of anything. Didn't feel the $18 burrito experience felt more like $12 dollar experience the way the burrito was. I know taste. Anyway the people sometimes judge, give dirty looks or act as if, so manners and kindness and integrity matter so much. People pay you for a service not just food.

There's a great variety of food trucks lined up in front of the Oakland museum. I'm always partial to the Southern Comfort restaurant. I've had their po'boys, shrimp, and heavenly seasoned fries. But I also love when Señor Sisig and anything that sells ice cream make an appearance. Customer service is always awesome and as fast as they can with the amount of people that show up. Highly recommend going to this weekly event at least once!

I got over my fear when Shakeel, the Market Ambassador at that time convince me to come. Even the other Market Ambassador Elon kept me company making sure I was OK at the market. I will admit every Friday Night I am at Off the Grid outside the Oakland Museum of California. I will admit I overdid it by checking out the exhibits at the museum weekly where I made a friend Preston, the Emcee at the Oakland Museum of California. Over 10 different food trucks to chose from. The highest food trucks they had at the market was up to 20 during the summer time. It is worth coming down to Oakland Museum to see all the different food trucks they have. I will admit I miss the past Market supervisor that ran the market (Adam, Alex, Paul, Henley, whomever ran the market that I can not remember their names). Ben, the current supervisor got this market running smoothly. I been enjoying the market. What makes this market to go to on Friday Night compared to going to Fort Mason is discount on museum tickets. You have a museum to go to while getting food from the food trucks. They also have a garden where children can run around in. The live music at the Oakland Museum of California is amazing. It is worth checking it out. This is the market to check out Friday Night.

I went to a handful of restaurants, but it wasn't giving Crusteations. The ChillFactory came up in my Yelp search. Now, they do not taste like Crusteations.

People usually come for pupusas which are good and a great deal ($7/2). I come for their tamales. The masa is so flavorful and the banana leaf keeps it very moist. It comes piping hot and with curtido and your choice of red or green salsa. I always order pork for more flavor. They also have other plates with fried plantains and other Salvadoran staples. It's an impressive spread for a food truck!

This place is fire!!! Yes the wait is super long (I waited closer to 30min and they told me…read more15-20min) but if you can't wait that long for good ass food then gtfo of the line. I got the garlic shrimp and noodles and it's so good. It comes with a sauce on the side that is amazing. The portions for $17 are also insane. The plate is huge and could last you at least two meals. Don't come here if you can't do the long wait for amazing food. The people running this are nice but there are only 3 of them serving everyone so be patient and you will be rewarded with the best plate of food you've had in a while.

Beef skewers 3.8/5, good but nothing to brag home about or drive out the way for. Garlic noodles 2/5, overcooked soggy noodles w/ fake butter and garlic, not worth the calories or carb consumption. Shrimp 3.5/5, hot and crispy, crack sauce was mid. Needed more lime. 2 bites and was done. Gave it to a homeless person nearby. Service - Friendly. Wait time was 25-30 min. They need to revamp their menu/food photos. Pretty bad quality and size. If you park on the side road, they will bring it to your car. Not sure why the wait is long, the only thing piping hot was the shrimp. Everything else was just warm. Ambiance - Mural was beautiful. VERY DIRTY picnic table and benches, loud music, and across the street from the bart station. I had high hopes for this place especially it being family owned, but the influencers must be getting free food or something to hype this up because this was not it. There's so many better options in Oak. Sorry won't be back.
