“Just the best taco place in the area. Creative, unique, and incredibly flavored tacos. The charred broccoli taco and all their seasonal vegetarian tacos are always incredible. I’d strongly recommend this place to people like myself who love a traditional Al pastor/carne asada taco, they have fantastic meat options and you will be very impressed the veggie options - and you absolutely must come if you are vegetarian/vegan. My only complaint is that they aren’t open enough for how much I crave their food.“
“Amazing restaurant, Service was awesome, pricing is completely reasonable and affordable.Atmosphere is cozy and very friendly. Brian the owner came to check on us and was hospitable and cheerful.Let's get to the good part. FOOD.I have eaten many plates of chilaquiles in my day and I can honestly say this establishment IS THE BEST I'VE HAD. The super burrito was perfect as well.If you haven't been here you are missing out.Well worth the visit, I will be returning to try the many other dishes that are offered.Great job Brian ◉‿◉PS photo is of the chilaquiles rojo“
“Amazing food and wonderful service!! I just passed by seeing this place on the side of Clayton road and it did not disappoint!! Really good Mexican food and very affordable. Great portions as well. Even the chips and salsa are amazing. Will definitely be going back. Highly recommend!“
“The best damn tacos in Oakland, full stop. Usually carne asada is a throwaway order, bland cardboard for white people (like me) who don't know anything about Mexican food (fortunately not like me). Not here. A friend who used to be a Michelin star chef proclaimed this the best carne asada he'd had outside of Mexico, and I agree wholeheartedly. And that's not where the show stops. Super legit pastor, fire fish tacos, solid vegetarian options, and don't skip the specials--I have yet to be let down. The brisket barbacoa especially is one of my top three tacos I've had in my entire life. Get the handmade flour tortillas, it's worth the extra money. And did I mention unlimited guacamole? Show me another place with unlimited guacamole. Not to mention the otherworldly salsa matcha. Don't sleep on this spot.“
“This place is a winner. I've had several burritos (carne asada, al pastor, and pollo) and tortas (pollo both times), and they were all excellent. Not dry, tons of everything, large portions, not over-priced. I hope these people can stick around. Support them!“
“The best al pastor tacos in the bay. The service is excellent and the prices are very affordable.Any Mexican restaurant sells pastor but it is pure grilled enchilada meat with a very bad flavor.This taqueria has been the best I have found since I left Mexico ♥️“
“This place is a weekend go to! I like the Camaron taco most, and the Pollo tacos are really good too. I’ve tried nearly all the vegan tacos in Oakland, and this is my favorite by far.Heart and dagger is around the corner, and they let you bring in food, so that’s a nice option, or the live music at the farmer’s market Saturday afternoons.“
“One word to describe this place "WOW." The food was honestly beyond our expectations. We were looking for something near by to eat and we came across Pipirin. The order was ready within minutes from ordering. We order tortas and tacos of pierna, carnitas, birria and Lengua all meats where so good to say the least. This is a must try.“
“This taco truck is definitely built off of love. Their meats are proper and this is definitely a place I'd even wanna work at. These guys know what their doing , and so when you come here,please pay it forward to these men, drop a couple dollars in the "VIP SERVICE" Tip jar .... You won't regret it(:“
“Nice lunch spot. Dinnner is much more chill. Very clean location, always friendly & fast service. The food is standard fare, the flavors are right but not super spicy, probably to accomodate all clientelle. I appreciate the salsa bar & that Door Dash is an option. Always a good experience.Vegetarian options: 5 items.Parking: Busiest at lunch but shopping center is large.Kid-friendliness: High chairs and booster seats. Cups with lids. No kids menu.“
“I went to both the scarbs food truck and the subi and both times ughh, it’s been SO good! And I’m picky, the flavours were immaculate,soft beef, and the consume was delicious. It’s addicting and so worth the price ? very friendly service “
“I came here for my birthday, and Jenny (bartender/server) was amazing. It was our first time there, and she was very patient and friendly, explaining the menu to us. The food was fantastic, and the shrimp were on point. Manager Gabriel is also very courteous and made sure we were all happy with our food. Came ba k again and tasted the salmon chowder, and that was AMAZING.... I LOVED IT.....Great food and atmosphere, keep up the great work.“
“If you ready for a fingerlicious experience,You need to come here!!Parking: Is behind the building , a lots of spaces but a bit difficult to get inKid-friendliness: Outdoor and clean space so kids can be kidsWheelchair accessibility: Access big on the street side is plenty of room ?“
“Nice little hole in the wall Papuseria. The food was delicious, especially the fried plantains! We ordered a wet burrito, different types of papusas, yuca frita and plantains. Let's just say, all my kids gobbled down their food w no complaints (unheard of).Service was fast, friendly owner and cooks. Def not a sit down restaurant type of a place. It is more for dropping in and having a quick bite or getting your food to go.Parking: Parking available in front and on the side of the restaurant. It is not located in a place where there is heavy foot traffic or shops etc.Kid-friendliness: It's very laid back.“
“Another case of Kevin forgetting to take pics of the food! But don't let that stop you. My carna asada buttito was super tasty. Filling but not gut busting. Nice flavor, good pieces of meat, decent amount of beans and guacamole. Could have used some extra heat - next time going ask for jalapeños to be added when its being made. Shrimp burrito had plenty of shrimp for our son. He enjoyed it. Wife was initially puzzled by her burrito since it started out all meat and rice before she hit her guac and sour cream. Good experience. Decent pricing. Super friendly service.“
“One of the best tacos I've had... tortilla was a little crispy soo good the meat well seasoned... I was at the White Elephant sale yesterday and after doing some shopping my mother and I got a bit hungry we decided to try this taco truck and buy some tacos, it did not disappoint... whenever I come to Oakland again and I get hungry I'll be sure to look them up again...“
“I've been driving past this amazing kitchen on wheels for the past yr and never have I bothered to stop & look. This ain't just a taco truck, they do breakfasts, burgers & birria. What more can you ask for. Run by nice folks. I'll definitely be back.“
“I worked the AV Fair and had their tacos on two separate occasions. Meats were juicy and tender, salsas were flavorful and spicy and my favorite part was the finely chopped onion and cilantro. If only I lived closer I would be able to have their food more often.“
“Once I tried this place I got f****** hooked Las salsas ni se digan every sauce they give you is so f****** good they add hella meat to your food they give you your money's worth and more, highly recommend this spot. When I was pregnant los primos was all I craved My daughter is know a 1year and 8 months and she loves the tacos.“
“My son and I came here two times during our visit to catch some baseball in San Fran and Oakland. Don't let the area distract you. It is heavy industrial and is fairly safe and the food here is exceptional and some of the best tacos I have ever had. For 10 to 12 bucks a person you walk out of here very full and can't complain a bit.“
“Delivery only review. The food is really good. I've tried quite a few of their dishes. My favorites being the Picadillo Plate and the Ensalada. They are the go-to dishes. The Ensalada is packed with veggies and a good amount of meat. I've tried the chicken, Carne asada. Both solid picks. The Picadillo Plate is very flavorful. Love the plantains. The ground beef is packed full of flavor. The sandwiches are good as well. The French bread is always a hit. Chips and guac is also good.This restaurant is in my steady rotation.“
“@ the Barbara lady - do you think the other vendors you mentioned don't use can beans - com'on get a grip! $15 is nothing compared to the great taste, customer service and the quality.The Burritos are delicious - Super Burrito's (2 meals in one) they are not street tacos by any stretch. Leave it to people like you who try to hurt small businesses with your negative vibes. We wish you well!“
“Went here based on a review on the Lakeside FB page picture. Ordered the, cannot spell and dont feel like looking up, fried pork bites (maybe belly). Unfortunately, ours were way over fried. Very dark brown and a hard chew. If not over cooked; would be awesome! We ate a couple but left the rest. The place is small and very clean. Very nice staff. Real coke, in the bottle, with a cup of ice. Cane sugar... it is different, if you didn't know. Therefore, no refills here. Also, you do not get free chips and salsa just for sitting at a table. You will pay about 5.00 for chips and salsa, you want cheese dip? Another 5.00. Fine. Do you want authentic flavor? (My opinion) Shed your Americanized view of hispanic foods. Look at the menu, you get the chance to eat things that you've only seen on the Food Network or if you were in an hispanic country. We also had a taco salad. Lovely and crispy. The bottom layer was some hot red sauce (both in heat and nicely spiced - so delish, not killer) - rice, shredded cheese, steak bits (chix or shrimp is also an option) iceberg lettuce (not uniformly shredded), guac, sour cream, few diced tomatoes and a bit more shredded cheese (mostly yellow - assume cheddar but to little to tell)Bottom line. The taco salad was awesome - get a fork-ful of it all. All of the flavors blended. We loved that the steak was charred but still tender. Tiny diced bites of diced steak, but it was good! We would have like a medium cook, yet charred - but even fully cooked, they know how to slice the steak, so it was not chewy. After you eat here.... Go a couple doors down for the in-house made ice cream. Try the pine nut "pinion' - or any that strikes your fancy. Put it on your list.“
“Great folks on staff, always ready to recommend good beers. They always have a good food option, with different vendors coming in on different days. ALWAYS an amazing beer selection, be sure to get some beers to go from the fridge doors as “
“Must Try! I went for the long awaited first time last week and I loved the place! I asked for 4 steak tacos with chips and guacamole to be divided into 2 to go bags and they cheerfully split the 1 order of chips and guacamole. They were busy and they worked together as a team getting the food out fast and a problem with the cash system working. It's a great family feel, with high quality ingredients. The best thing is the steak is so tasty!! I'm impressed with the from scratch guacamole, everything is very fresh. I noticed the tall rotisserie of marinated pork and I'm excited to try that this week!! It's such a great edition to The Glenview.“
