“It’s the best Restaurant in town came with Family and we had a great time! Food was great and drinks 🍹 we all loved the dessert as well! Just amazing service and food! My Favorite for sure! 2914 College Ave Berkeley Ca“

“Try the newest special the Cajun Tropical Wet Burrito! It’s so yummy and amazing! 😋I highly recommend this restaurant. Also, great customer service and quick service. Great quality with great prices! 😉“

“Gordo's is just the frigging best. I know it is actually "Gordo Taqueria", but I've called it "Gordo's" for 25 years and I can't change! You guys are great!“

“I placed my Drive-Thru order on the mobile app before a chore run, well ahead of time, as I have done for years, at 6:21pm. I pulled up around 7:01pm and was handed my order immediately. A little confused, I shrugged it off though soon realized my food was cold and soggy.

I noticed on the bag that it was ready for pickup at 6:27pm, well before I was there. Upon returning to inquire, I was told that you cannot specify a time for Drive-Thru, and had to argue/insist that it's Taco Bell policy to not start making the order until the name is given at the Drive-Thru.

I had checked the website before leaving, so it felt extremely disrespectful to be argued with around the matter because they didn't want to admit the mistake. They finally gave in and remade my order as they should. I understand trying to get ahead of orders, but you shouldn't break policy to do so or this kind of thing can happen.

The situation was appropriately remediated and I feel bad if I stressed anyone out (thus the 4-star), thank you.“

“Great food, service, ambiance. From the time we step foot on your property till we left was very pleasant. we sat at the bar and enjoyed the bar staff. Danny was very knowledgeable of his mixes and very hospitable. All staff was very good. Food was great. My favorite was tacos and caviar and dessert. We will be back“

“Had a super crispy super burrito. It was very delicious. The avocado was very good and I love the fact that there is no rice in the burrito. Would definitely recommend. There was a line for sitting but I took it to go. The wait wasn't too bad.“

“Definitely Best Tacos in Town! 🔥🍻🤤“

“The food here is beyond delicious - every taco we had from carnitas, birria, rib eye, maitake mushroom, chicken tinga - was truly incredible. The quesadilla is a big serving and also very tasty. The horchata is creamy and perfectly balanced, and not too sweet as many horchatas tend to be. The mezcal they serve is wonderful as well. The owners are so nice and service is very attentive. They’re also showing the World Cup right now on a screen. Go support this gem of a neighborhood business!!“

“I thought this place was pretty good, but I wasn’t overly impressed, so I think it’s maybe a little overhyped. Food was good. Service is pretty good atmosphere was all right. We sat outside and it was pretty chilly and they didn’t have the heaters running.“

“Let me tell you something, this has to be on your list when you come to SF. This is where you need to stop and this is where you need to eat the family the food the everything about this experience was nothing short of wonderful. I live in SoCal so Mexican food is a staple but let me tell you something this was a different experience completely everything is crafted with care and love and you know it I got the poblano spaghetti and omg my mind was blown away. I hope this place stays around for a very long time. This made my entire trip to SF worth it.“

“I love it when a first try of something new to me is a sensational first impression as well! friendly staff and great food! I'll be back for sure!“

“Quaint & good food. Friendly restaurant & staff.“

“the chicken is the best around and the al pastor is to die for“

“We were looking for the best taco spot in SF and this place kept popping up. it was just what everyone described. The food was amazing, and they served big portions. The meat was flavorful. If you dine in they give chips and salsa while you wait for your food. I got the carne asada platillo and my gf got the alambre platillo and it came with avocado which is really rare. we also got a taco to try it and it was really good. The service was fast and the people were really nice. The vibe is 10/10 couldn’t beat it. Would definitely recommend for an authentic Mexican restaurant experience“

“Excellent food, wonderful friendly service“

“This is the food truck spot for tacos in San Francisco’s Mission District. The tacos are loaded and the sauces are nice and spicy. I love all the veggie’s they add on the side as well. Easy to pick up to-go or chill at the tables they have outside. I got 4 tacos for $17. Well worth the price and always happy to support small local businesses like this. This was a great way to celebrate Cinco De Mayo.“

“An incredible dining experience from start to finish. The chips and salsa feature a unique, intriguing flavor that is absolutely delicious, and the carne asada fajitas were flawless. The staff clearly pours a lot of love, skill, and passion into their food.“

“Delicious!“

“I always have an amazing experience in the wheels on this so nice and friendly. This is my favorite Mexican place. I love how they greet you with a warm welcome and they’re always ready to place you in a seat.“

“Newest restaurant open in Union Square. Incredible food. They are so kind and give back to the city.“

“This is right in the middle of financial district. Not sure about parking nearby as it is hard being SF. Food was decent and portions were big, but pricey as expected in SF. Drinks looked appealing. And, all restaurants are adding a 6% health tax for dining! It's ridiculously expensive to eat out in San Francisco. 😕 Sigh!“

“Fantastic, flavorful, juicy high quality Chicken Verde and Pork Verde Burritos. They got my special request of no sour cream and extra cheese perfectly. The guacamole inside was so fresh, as was the rice, chicken, and whole beans and real Monterey Jack cheese. This is our new go-to spot for excellent Mexican food. And very good prices and service!“

“We went in for early dinner at 5.30pm on a Saturday evening. It was pretty empty when we arrived. We started off with queso and chips which was pretty good. We had the mushroom tacos which were one of the best damn vegetarian tacos I have ever had in US!! Sweet potato tacos were pretty good too. Slightly pricy but the food and service make it worth it. Will definitely come again!“

“How cool that this Oakland gem has adapted during the pandemic! All of the delicious drinks and all kinds of new menu items all for take-out in...wait for it...compostable containers...even the bottles the drinks come in! Please support this sustainability-minded, amazing and delicious restaurant. They have a few outdoor tables, too. Go. Go now!“

“Been going there since the 70’s We loved their fresh made tortillas and masa for tamales. I did notice today the tortillas weren’t the same. I pray the masa hasn’t changed when we make our Xmas tamales. For the past 27 years I drive from Antioch to San Francisco for our masa.🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️“

“Kiosk for ordering, so no human interaction. I can’t really compare what I ate with other Mexican restaurants because of dietary restrictions. We had tacos: hand made blue corn tortillas! Meat had a charred flavor and was of good consistency. Quesabirria eas nice the consume was on good too. Overall great experience.“

“The tamales are so good!!“

“It was the friendliest salsa scene I've been to in years--Sunday at four to eight. And the food was gorgeous, and the staff super helpful.“

“Los tacos muy ricos y las salsas muy ricas también“

“This place deserves a higher rating than is average. I've brought many people here recently and have had it 3x times in a row. I love the grilled fish and the seared ahi tuna for the win. I highly recommend this unassuming place for people in the area!“

“Un lugar donde te sientes como en casa, como en tu México lindo y querido. Con la atención más cordial, amable y amigable del mundo. Lugar donde te concierten el paladar con la exquisitez de su buena comida y bebidas. Gracias Tio Chilo!!!!!“

“Muy acogedor el lugar, perfecto para un almuerzo en familia.“

“This modern restaurant is incredible; it surprises you in every way: food, music, service, and the paintings and portraits are truly fantastic. I highly recommend it. Luis is an amazing waiter.It makes you feel like you've known me for a long time and like family. Visit this place, I highly recommend it.“

“Great food, good service, and a wonderful overall experience.“

“Great value and the food is exceptional! Small dining area and no frills, but who cares! I had the super taco and it was outstanding! I only wish I could have had a margarita!“

“Food was Delicious. Staff was very friendly. The restaurant was very clean. Food was all fresh. I absolutely recommend them! We will be back.“

“Purchased catered food for a wedding rehearsal dinner.. JJ, the catering manager was great. Very helpful. The whole staff was helpful. The food was ready on time and delicious. My wedding party was very happy and couldn't stop mentioning how good the food was. Love the habanero salsa. Chorizo was on point. Best horchata I've had in a long time.“

“This is a family run place with outdoor seating. The food is quick, fresh and tasty. Women members of the family are nicer than the men, who can be clueless and unhelpful. Sometimes the meat is recooked in the crispy tacos which are otherwise my favorite. The flautas are also fresh and good as are the refried pinto beans.I like this casual place a lot—you can buy Russian River Brew next door at Raymnond’s excellent pizza place and sit in the sun with the locals.“

“Walked in one day and wanted to try some nachos. Had a great time. It was good fresh food. The service was amazing and the views from the windows are pretty. The restaurant is also decorated very beautifully. Will come back again to try the other things I was suggested. But unfortunately just the day was not just for me, which was decent.

Don't mind the to go box in my photos. I didn't want to dirty dishes when I was hoping to take most of the Nachos to go :)“

“Omg! this place ess awesome! the chicken & waffles were to die for.. I will be returning.soon!“

“We had a wonderful meal here! I got carne asada which was my favorite and queso birria which was good as well. My dad loved the shrimp tacos. The back patio is the perfect place to watch the World Cup! Absolutely keeping this place on my list of favorites! And they were exceedingly accommodating, my dad is allergic to cilantro and they accommodated him completely!“

“All of their food is delicious🔥🤤😋“

“This was the best Mexican food I’ve had in almost 15 years. I’m going to be visiting a lot. Good drinks and great food.“
