We did takeout, usually the shrimp burritos. They are quite good.
Ordered a beef, cheese, rice and bean burrito. When I paid for it, I thought it was pretty expensive. The darn thing showed up and was GIGANTIC!! Great place!!
Great tacos especially after traveling internationally. Thank God for bay area mexican food!

El Metate Taqueria is a popular place for delicious Mexican food. Their tacos, including buche, carnitas, and cabeza, are large and meaty with delightful textures. The fresh salsa bar and free chips are a plus, and the free deep-fried jalapenos add a nice touch. The "wet style" super burrito is enormous and very tasty, but customers should be prepared for a massive serving. The dine-in environment is beautiful, with painted chairs, tables, and walls, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The cashier takes orders quickly and efficiently, making the experience smooth. Takeout includes a bag, utensils, and napkins, with a station for reusable cleaned utensils and foil if packaging leftovers. While some feel the food could be more fresh and improved in quality, overall, the food remains solid. The giant fried fish plate offers a unique experience. Many customers recommend calling ahead to avoid long lines during peak times, such as Friday around 11:45 am. The restaurant accepts both cash and credit cards. El Metate Taqueria remains a great choice for a satisfying meal, especially for lunch or a quick stop during passing through or visiting Belmont.
