Cocina Hijole Maria - 'Oh Whateva' is a real deal, family-owned restaurant in a quiet area of Concord offering an incredible, homemade dining experience. The menu is small but focused, featuring dishes made fresh in-house with high-quality ingredients and clear care. Standout items include the mole chicken enchiladas, the to-die-for green pozole, quesabirria, shrimp tacos, fish fried tacos, and the quesadilla frita. The homemade tortillas, chips, and salsa are consistently praised. The full bar serves fantastic margaritas, like the Hijole Pineapple, along with awesome horchata.
The cozy, small space has a good atmosphere with good music, fostering a warm, communal vibe. Service is friendly and amazing, making guests feel at home. Note that the food takes time to prepare, which can lead to waits when the place is crowded and busy. The restaurant offers outdoor seating, happy hour Tuesday through Friday, and Taco Tuesday specials. It is a spot with honest food, warm people, and recipes that matter, providing an SF-worthy experience right in Concord.
