    Burrito
    Vanni C.

    So I came here twice the first time the taquito (flauntas) were fine. Little crispy but ok .. my partner enjoyed his burrito I came here. Second time and ordered enchilada tacos and burrito for a few people.. and this experience was not as swell.. the flavor of the enchilada were very basic and the tacos toppings were served separately the steak was very fatty .. the chicken was fresh There was a spoiled smell inside which should have been telling .. I would probably only order the flauntas in the future

    I placed an order thru Grubhub at 1000am, Bean and Cheese Enchiladas with steak. Guacamole added on the side. Order arrived on time, everything was intact. Food is delicious. Seasoning just right, not overly salty. This is my 3rd order during the Covid-19 shelter in place. (Grubhub offered $5 discount)

    Whole fried red snapper with garlic

    I've been coming here for decades now with my family. The epitome of an authentic Mexican hole in the wall restaurant that has stood the test of time with the same ownership. Parking can be rough at times but on the weekends the small lot between them and a tire shop is available. The area is kinda sketchy but you shouldn't have any issues The food has gone from great to ok to great and right now with my recent experience on mothers day I'd say they're ok right now. The sopes is my go-to every time, still better than anywhere else that I can think of. Fluffy, airy, moist and flavorful is how I like em. Some people prefer dry, crunchy sopes and that's on them, this isn't the place for that lol. They carry a variety of seafood plates/platters mariscos that I highly recommend too, fresh and tasty. My family often order the whole fried snapper fish de Diablo which has a nice spicy kick to it. Pretty big portion and cooked to perfection.. Tijuanas won't win any style points, but its a better than most establishment for a meal to hit the spot.

    Caldo de Chile Relleno! Yes! You heard me...Chile Relleno Soup is served at this Mexican restaurant. My mom used to make it this way. It was good. The broth was taste and served with Homemade Corn tortillas (super soft) The place is not upscale at Allan's the outside curb appeal is not nice at all but the Caldos are popular here. I'd come back again for the Caldo de Chile a Relleno Soup.

    I eat here with my mother all the time and they serve amazing food but I should have checked my TOGO before I left. I never had to do this before cause this never happened once. I PAID 16$ for this?!?! I don't think so. Good to know how they treat loyal customer. La cagada!

    Birria seca de chivo

    I am so going to miss this place. Recently relocated and visited this place before we moved. My fave was the Birria seca and the levanta muertos. The best part? Freshly hand made tortillas.

    This spot is located along the "stroll". If you drive too fast - you'll surely miss it. It's a family owned dive with expensive prices but authentic Mex food. The food is just hella good. I like the fact that the seafood is fresh and doesn't include food poisoning. My fav dish is the surf n turf which includes massive butterfly prawns sauteed in garlic and butter. The rib eye steak is cooked in its own juicy juice. On top of both are massively large half cut garlic cloves. This meal comes with a very fresh side salad with homemade thousand island dressing and a fat avacado slice. Rice and beans included. I get the whole pinto beans separate cuz I don't like them touching my other food items. This meal also comes with a thick butter garlic sauce and I definitely pass on that. But their pico de gallo is homemade and very different from any that I've had before. You get a choice of flour or corn hot tortillas. It's enough for two people or two dinners - unless you're a piglet. Free parking is adjacent to the building in a gate enclosure. I sit in my car and order which takes about 10-15 mins. They have inside dining if you ask nicely. Breakfast is the bomb too. My fav is crab omlette and it is just ridiculously DELISH and super fresh.

    I took a photo of the menu to remind myself what I ordered but to no avail

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.

    Such a beautiful place! The vibes, the food, the people - all 10/10!…read more First off - I'd suggest to make a reservation! We sat indoors but they do have an outdoor tented area. Second - we didn't have any issues parking on the street. The restaurant is tucked away in a semi-residential area. Third - the experience start to finish: Staff - super friendly, and welcoming! There was a seamless handoff between checking in, to the person helping with our order, to receiving our order. Drink - I had the house fermented soda and at that time - it was featuring dragon fruit. OMG - incredible, tasty, and refreshing! Food - we had SPICY CARROTS TOASTED ALMOND MISANTLA (11/10), BLUE CORN QUESADILLA (10/10 - everything handmade/fresh), and BLACK MOLE ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH (11/10 - whoever's came up with this combo - chefs kiss!) and more!

    Summary: Delicious food with explosive flavors…read more Details: I can't recall how we landed on Bombera while we were looking for anniversary dinner options, but we were sure happy it did! 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.
