“My fave place to grab n go some homemade muy rico tamales! It's literally a window you order at, limited street parking, but you can get thicc delicious tamales hot and ready to eat or to keep for another day. They last a week in the fridge. But mine never last that long. Chicken is my fave, the cheese is good too. Veggies is my least fave but I still like it! Huge portions. Quality people and hearty tamales. Go get you some from Tamaleria Azteca!“

“It’s been so hot lately - pineapple green agua Fresca really hits the spot!
Love the fish tacos here- nice and crispy. Salsa verde on the side. We came around noon and there wasn’t a line.
Aloha club next door was open as well if you wanted to get drinks there.
Nice outdoor seating and vibe!“

“A Flavorful Journey to Zacatecas: A True Taste of Authentic Mexican Cuisine Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cecilia's Zacatecas Mexican Restaurant, and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience. As soon as I walked through the door, I was captivated by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The aroma of freshly prepared spices filled the air, instantly transporting me to the heart of Mexico. Cecilia's dedication to preserving the authentic flavors of Zacatecas cuisine shines through in every dish. The menu is a treasure trove of traditional delights, showcasing her expertise in crafting delectable recipes. The Birria, a slow-cooked stew bursting with rich flavors, was an absolute standout. Each spoonful was a heavenly blend of tender meat, aromatic spices, and a hint of smokiness. It was a true testament to the care and passion that goes into Cecilia's cooking. Another must-try at this restaurant is the Zacatecas-style Gorditas. These handheld delights are made with love and expertise, with a perfectly fluffy masa exterior encasing a variety of mouthwatering fillings. Whether you opt for savory meats or flavorful vegetarian options, each bite is a symphony of textures and tastes that will leave you craving more. To complement the meal, Cecilia offers traditional Mexican beverages that are as refreshing as they are authentic. The Café de la Olla is a fragrant and invigorating cup of coffee brewed with cinnamon and piloncillo, giving it a unique twist. And the Agua de Horchata, a rice and cinnamon-based drink, provides a soothing and creamy accompaniment to the vibrant flavors of the food. It's clear that Cecilia's passion for cooking stems from her upbringing and the invaluable knowledge passed down to her by her mother. Her dedication to preserving the culinary traditions of Zacatecas is evident in every plate she serves. Not only does she deliver exceptional food, but her warmth and welcoming nature also create an inviting ambiance that makes dining at her restaurant a truly memorable experience. In addition to her culinary prowess, Cecilia's persistence as a Latina business owner deserves applause. It is inspiring to see her success and how she has brought a taste of Zacatecas to our community. Supporting local businesses like Cecilia's is a way to celebrate culture and diversity while enjoying incredible food.“

“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.“

“The tacos and everything are very good, they just have to improve the issue of the lemons, where they buy them, because they don't have anything sumo, and you only ask and order lemon because they don't add any sumo, but otherwise the food and the tacos I love them“

“One of my favorite places to eat in the WORLD! I live in Missouri now and it was my first stop off of the plane when we visited! Chicken taco supers spicy.“

“If you’re in the mood for birria, look no further. This spot has such tender and flavorful birria that it may or may not make you forget all past birrias you’ve tried.
Victor is the chef and owner behind La Santa Torta and he has an obvious love for what he does, which honestly makes the food taste better. He made our tacos super quickly too.
If you like spicy, ask for the red sauce!
Their brick and mortar location has closed, but you can find them on 1025 3rd st in Oakland.“

“My first time trying Mexican food!!
If you are into original non glamorous places with fantastic food, THIS WILL BE UP YOUR ALLEY! This is a family own restaurant with a full service bar adjacent room. The micheladas are insane! They have cool variety of imported beer and local to choose. The birria go some and the tiny been tacos will blow your mind.
Just watch out for the life mariachi bands if you don’t like loud music.“
“What an incredible treat to experience--AND it's situated conveniently in a residential area for accessibility!
The churros are delicious in their own or with a variety of fillings. My favorite is the caramelo (caramel) filling that's made with goat milk. (It's like dulce de leche but warrrrrm.)
The people who run it are also the owners, which means they're invested in creating a friendly, community atmosphere and gladly cater to special requests.
Be prepared to pay either cash, use Zelle or get cash back from the nearby Mexican grocer. There's no option for card payments!“

“I’d give this place 6 stars if I could. Not only do they undoubtedly have the best Tacos on all of Oakland, they have incredibly honest and kind service. When I had a communication error with the store - they not only rectified the situation, but went above and beyond in their solution. I will be recommending this place to everyone I know. Great tacos, great leadership and great prices“

You will never leave this place still hungry and the people who work here are super-friendly. They also have a small parking lot behind the restaurant if you cannot find parking along the street.“

“Home Sweet Home in a Mexican Restaurant. Small but quaint. Always greeted with smiles and a warm Holla or Hello. With food being chopped, cooked and prepared right in front of you, you feel like your at home with grandma while the small of food is coming. The food is excellent and the pieces are reasonable. On point. They feed The Bay.
Vegetarian options: You can request no meat or dairy. They have fish tacos or burritos as well if that's your dietary type.
Parking: There is plenty of parking. Wheelchair accessible.
Kid-friendliness: Kids are definitely welcome.
Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely.“

“I grew up in The Mission eating El Farolito, but I now call Oakland home. This always satisfies the cravings of a Carne Asada Super Burrito as most Oakland taquerias don't quite compare in my taste. The carnitas super quesadilla doesn't quite hit the spot (however still good). Service is always friendly, parking is good at night, calling 5-10 min ahead of time always helps. Highly recommend.
Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible“

“Good food, but it took 20 minutes just standing around last night waiting to order. Place felt kinda sketchy, too. People begging right at the truck ain't good either. Had like 3 people trying to service 40 customers. It's better to go during the day.“

Mezcal selection is getting to be the best in town, bar manager is super knowledgable and happy to talk Mezcals to get me what I'm feeling. Friendly service, always a great time!“
