“The fish tacos were really good, one of the best I've ever had“

“A gem of a neighborhood joint. Food was outstanding. We had a party of 12 and from the amazing chips and salsa to the outstanding margaritas, everything was wonderful. Of particular note was the exquisite mango salad. So good that we came back 2 days later to have another and try more of their dishes. Delicious!!“

“Great Food, Great Service“

“Love this place, the food is fantastic, very much a taqueria. The Cameron’s taco are fantastic. Everyone that works there are really friendly, you can tell they like it there because it is the same faces.

They moved in and painted the place bright pink. They replaced another favorite that was not able to survive COVID.

If you get take out, check you got your chips, they love to leave those out of your bag. 5 stars if not for the many bags of missing chips.“

“Excellent costumer service love their drinks and happy hour. Food is delicious I recommend it to have drinks !“

“It was my first time going there. My family and I ate some tasty pupusas. I got loroco con queso and they got frijol con queso. They were a pretty decent size and they were good. They also have tables and chairs for you to eat there. Reasonable prices.“

“This place has been one of my favorites since I came but this last time I went it was not pleasant as always we ordered some enchiladas chapinas and they were older and harder I couldn't even get my teeth into the tortillas then the curtido smelled ruined l3 I said to the waitress and she didn't like my comment the yevo were the tortillas and the same chuco tanned they put them we ordered some corn tamales anyway ☹️ they were very hard and I say this seriously because I am a cook and one knows when things are not fresh that Don't mind if comments are made, it's for improvement, it's not for anyone to be ill-intentioned. If I put my business up, I'd like my clients to tell me if they don't like something.“

“Pupusas are made fresh. Get your revueltas, or jalapeno y queso here. Takes 15 minutes or so to make so come ready. 2.50 for any pupusas. Tacos here are also delicious, comes with a lot of meat and very well flavored. 2.00 each. Horchata isn't super sweet which I like but cost 3.00 each.“

“I’m vegan and got fed very well here. The crispy potato tacos w a side of cabbage salad was so delicious and filling. Their house made hot salsa is out of this world with flavor. I’m rarely in this area but will come back for these tacos. Can’t wait to try their rice and beans.“

“The perfect atmosphere to settle in and finally get some much needed work done.
My latte was genuinely lovely! Smooth, balanced, and rich without being heavy. You could taste the care in every sip, and the milk was steamed to that silky perfection that makes a latte feel indulgent rather than routine. The latte art itself was so picturesque it almost felt wrong to disturb it. Delicate, precise, and quietly beautiful, like a small piece of art meant just for me. Alongside it, my tea was soothing and fragrant, grounding me even further into the moment. A spot you must try if you haven’t and a spot you definitely want to return to if you have.“

“I popped into Jalisco Méxican Food and had a really satisfying meal. The tacos and burritos I ordered were flavorful and felt genuinely Mexican — simple, hearty, and not overly fancy. The portions were generous for the price, and everything came out fresh with plenty of traditional toppings like salsa and lime.

The vibe is casual and laid-back, perfect for a relaxed lunch or quick dinner. It’s not a fancy sit-down spot, but the flavors and value definitely make it worth a stop if you’re craving solid Mexican comfort food. I’d go back for another round of tacos or to try some of their other classic dishes.“

“One community advocate. Great cause.“

“First time there…food and drinks amazing.. will definitely go back..👍🏽“

“Cashier super rude, Menu doesn't have prices on it.“

“Bengan mis queridos amigos no se van a repentir“

“The best Chapin bread and that's it. I am Mexican and Mexican bread is very delicious but I like this bread better. In addition, Oakland is already getting its act together and is cleaning the streets of all the trash there is. So now the bakery is more accessible.“

“I eat here almost everyday for the past 5 years, and I still haven't tasted everything on the menu!!! =) so much to choose from . thumbs up!“
