Lots of food. Pricey but par for the course in over priced Alameda/California

Food was good, but service was weird. Appeared multiple people were acting as our waiter but service was still disjointed and slow. Canned or bottled sodas only, and $3.50 for a single can is crazy. Chairs and table were extremely uncomfortable, chair was hard and table seemed low. Not sure I’d return.

This location is so much better than the location on Park Street. It’s a little out of the way to get to but I feel it’s worth it. The staff is friendlier, the restaurant is cleaner, the atmosphere is nicer because it’s on the water, and the cook on the food is better. This is the only Mexican restaurant in Alameda that I will gladly go to and spend money at because it’s worth it, all the other Mexican restaurants on the island are below average. I came with my dad here because he was craving the sizzling fajita steak plate, I got the shredded chicken burrito and it was all very good! Will definitely come again.

Solid breakfast burrito. I ate outside on the steps so I can't comment on the ambiance.

It's basic American Mexican food but really good. They kept the chips coming. Service was incredibly quick. It's a nice place to sit outside on the water.

Setting is nice, food is grossly overpriced and the service was terrible.

2 small beef tongue tacos for $12
They were tasty and filling.

They have multiple locations and food trucks! The food trucks are a go-to but when the trucks aren’t open we love going to the restaurants. The view and scenery at this location is super nice and the weather is always great. The food is delicious, especially the street tacos.
