17 Best Mexican Restaurants in Brentwood

“The vegetarian bowl was a little bit on the small size as the same price as a meat bowl which doesn't really make a lot of sense to me. Beans rice some lettuce. A little salsa and they should make the bowl a little bit bigger because they're not putting the the beef and the chicken and whatever else they usually put in there. I think that would be great. Otherwise the flavor was good. Wasn't a Chipotle that's for sure, but it was more expensive than Chipotle. I think a good price for what I eat would have been around $ $8.50“

“Second time getting food here. Sweet people, and the chile verde & carnitas some of the best I’ve had in a long time! Extra crispy hash browns for breakfast, the way they should be done. Perfect breakfast to start the New Year! Our new go to for sure!“

“This place is really good for a quick lunch or dinner price point is reasonable normally do take out and never have we eaten on site. I do enjoy thier breakfast burritos they’re really yummy ! Overall this place is solid for food and service. If you’re looking for a quick and reasonable meal this is the spot !“

“Very good food, nice atmosphere, great service.“

“Stopped in last night for my first time at the restaurant. There were 6 of us. 6 different cocktails were ordered, and 6 different dinner options were ordered. All were 10/10 😊“

“The best!!!I highly recommend this place ..Best food and great customer service..Our favorite is quesabirria🥰🥰🥰.“

“Simply the best Mexican restaurant in the Bay Area. Their seafood is the 💣 bomb and their customer service is an A+…my whole family loves it.“

“I ordered the Chilli relleno burrito. The best burrito I have had in years. I've had their street tacos at a party they catered years ago. The best Mexican food in the area. You should definitely try them out, you won't be disappointed.“

“The mole poblano was great and I’m pretty sure based on that alone everything else is probably amazing as well. There’s other comfort dishes on the menu that I can’t wait to try in future visits (the pozole and the albondigas). The service was charming and polite. I’m definitely coming back here! 💖“

“I can’t believe I haven’t had breakfast here before?! I had the best virgin Bloody Mary of my life! The Tina’s omelette was amazing too 😋 I will definitely be going back 😊“

“Im am absolutely SHOCKED this place is not a full 5 star.
these ARE the best tacos in the bay.

Crunchy taco, The chile verde is amazing.
Fully loaded, with beans and cheese that stretches from the taco to your mouth.

1 is good, 2 if you are starving. You wont be able to eat 3, they are that big.

Every single time i go to brentwood i stop at this shop…EVERY TIME.“

“Their food is delicious and service was great! We got lumpia, torta and Silog. All were fantastic!“

“This place is an amazing hidden gem. I wish they were located in a spot that is easier to find because I want others to enjoy their food. There is another mediocre place in town (that shall remain nameless) that everyone raves about but this tiny, family owned taqueria located inside a Mexican market is 100 times better. Please go there and spend your money. They deserve the support and the other place already gets plenty of business because of their location and the fact that most people think it's the only place in town. Let's make Nena's the next best of Brentwood!“

“Combo plates(chile relleno, cheese enchilada and soft taco) carnitas nachos and sizzling carna aside very good!!!“

“Great place to eat & drink ! Two things that will never grow old Charlie Kirk & Charlie Kirk jokes !! Pay no attention to the fascists faith fomented foppery, if you're an ignorant, illiterate, inbred imbecile go elsewhere - the management & regular customers don't like you !!!“

“Great, Attentive service and cool Route 66 diner vibe. 1st visit ordered their Eggs Benedict: Poached Eggs cooked perfectly, Ham was tender and flavorful but English Muffin didnt seem to be toasted? Also believe the green Tabasco at the table, preferred over the orginal red sauce, might been out of date? Hashbrowns were cooked well.

Overall was Good experience“

“🌮 Instant Favorite. Would Come Back Just for the Salsa. 🌶️

Let’s start with the salsa—because wow. I’d come back here for the salsa alone. It’s seriously some of the best I’ve ever had at a Mexican restaurant. Fresh, flavorful, just the right amount of kick—and the chips pair perfectly with it. You know it’s good when the appetizer steals the spotlight.

But then came the wet burrito. And just look at that beauty. Smothered in sauce and cheese, it was everything a burrito should be—massive, comforting, and delicious. Pro tip: come hungry. You’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit.

This place nails the basics and then some. Friendly staff, cozy vibe, and food that doesn’t miss.“
