“I luv their all their food and beer good prices and great good we always clean our plate off completely recommendation“

“Love this place and will come back for sure. I ordered birria sampler and birria taco. The fried birria sampler is much better than my expectation, I never ordered fried taco before. The chili is so fresh and balanced. Personally I love soft taco more.“

“This is the best taqueria in Gilroy! We usually get the shrimp taco and just tried the chile relleno for the first time, WOW !!! All the ingredients are top quality, and there is something for everyone. The service is fast and friendly. You'll love this place !“

“I may not know Mexican cuisine, but I know when food is good. And damn, the food is good here. Everything tasted like some old grandma invited you over for a fiesta and she personally cooked everything herself. We ordered the beef and veggie soup for our children. I couldn't stop stealing it for myself! It reminded us of this one Cantonese soup with pork bone, carrots, and radish. This one used beef rib, kinda like galbi tang. The meat was so moist. Then came the tacos, enchilada, and shrimp cocktail. Everything was huge and bursting with flavor, although slightly overseasoned (read: salty) for our preference. Even the rice was noteworthy. You can see the leftover tomato skin -- it's not just tomato paste like some restaurant use to cut corners. We even enjoued their Pico de Gallo and salsas. They reshly prepare their corn tortillas. I could eat those every day! The best part of the meal was the gal working as hostess, waitress, and server. She made us feel so welcome, patiently answered all of our questions, catered to our every need (we're a family with young kids), and checked on us several times. She even get us an extra order of rice which our kids devoured -- for free!“

“Finest chimichanga in this universe! 👌👅🌈“

“LOVED THE HAPPY HOUR ❤️ SO GOOD 😊“

“The best of Gilroy ! The food is so good but we are always greeted in such a friendly manner . The family owned restaurant makes you feel at home with Carmen or Patricia (usually) greeting you and they are all so very friendly. The atmosphere is fun and festive with a tree that stays up all year long decorated by Carmen for every Holiday !
The food is delicious and my favorite is almost everything I’ve ever ordered“

“Great tacos and burritos for a great price! This is not a fancy place but it isn't trying to be. It's a great, down to earth local mexican restaurant. If you want something different, get the elote (corn) as a tasty side! The burritos are generously sized and well worth the price. Definitely recommend!“

“Todo muy sabroso no se diga la barbacoa“

“Really tasty enchiladas, sopes, and chili rellanos. The salsa, chips and frijoles refritos were so good. Great California flavors.“

“My favorite every time!!!“

“Great place good food love it!!!!“

“Phenomenal choice for tonight's dinner. It's not too often I have so many choices that sound so tempting. The menu is well varied while also being very cohesive. The staff are super friendly, especially the bartender Jacob! That dude is the man! The outside area was super inviting and absolutely gorgeous. Even our baby was enthralled the entire time we were at the restaurant. Highly recommend 👌

That curry katsu was fire, the crab and artichoke dip was FULL of crab, and my fiancés galbi was perfect“

“awesome staff and great food. They are supporting the community by giving back to the families from the tragic shooting in Gilroy.“

“Best kept secret in California...and I don't say that lightly! WOW, the food is good! If you like shrimp and bacon...try the Camerones Momia. Of course that dish is rather rich...so consider getting a Tostadas de Cameron's Pescado o Pulpo to go with it...AMAZINGLY fresh and bursting with flavor! This place is EXACTLY why you need to adventure and try new places. Just wish I had found it sooner...and/or it was closer to Ohio.“

“We were passing through Gilroy and decided to stop at this restaurant because they were dog friendly and we were so pleased with our experience. We had the Terra de Mariscos and two quesabirria tacos and it was SO GOOD! They had a live mariachi band playing at a perfect volume to be able to listen and have a conversation. The place had a fun atmosphere and the food and drink menus had so many cool things…we wish we could’ve tried it all!“

“I was traveling with my mom, visiting family, and we happened upon this food truck while grabbing a quick cup of coffee before hitting the road. The truck was parked next to the coffee shop, and we thought that maybe it would be wise to eat because the food looked so delicious. Brandon, the owner, was so helpful and friendly in helping us pick out the perfect dish. Let me tell you, this decision did not disappoint and the food was top notch extraordinary and so worth the stop. I highly, highly recommend making the stop as well. As a foodie, I feel it’s my responsibility to let everyone know where the good food is at, especially for those who also travel and look for the gems. Go here. That’s that. 🙏🏽😛“

“The taco's are consistently delicious and so worth the cost. If you're feeling like having tacos at any time, breakfast, lunch, or dinner... well, you will be doing big things if you choose to satisfy this craving at this restaurant.“

“I ordered the Thursday special:
Carne Asada Super Burrito + Soda for $10!

The burrito was delicious!

Super Burrito contains carne asada, rice, beans, sour cream, onion, cilantro, cheese, and avocado.

Glad I stopped!“

“excelentes platillos excelentes servicios y excelentes precios“

“We stopped here on my way home from Santa Cruz. The Super Burrito de birria con todo is massive and delicious! The torta de carnitas con todo is huge and so good!! Will return. I suggest you have wipies with you to wipe down the table before and after you eat. FYI it's always windy so be ready to fight nature for your food LOL!“

“This is the best chicken burrito in the state.

One of the reasons is the chicken is smoked and juicy. But more than that, it’s the evenness of it all. The balance of creama to beans isn’t drippy, the tomatoes in the pico are perfectly ripe, the freckled tortillas aren’t overly thick or thin, it’s the cheese spreads evenly across the interior like the perfect amount of butter on toast, the onions are cut to the perfect diameter. The ingredients are across the board, fresh, considered, and proportionately perfect. I think about this burrito all the time.“
