“Second time at Bombera. Just as good as the last time. Atmosphere is inviting. Multiple dishes for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Took the two most picky eaters i know, and they enjoyed every dish more than the last. Staff is great too. 👍🏾 It's a great location for drinks, celebrations and just a good meal. Only slightly negative is be aware it is noisey and lively inside so don't go here if you are trying to have a quiet dinner.“

“Im suprised I hadnt done a review of this place. For the past few years. From the moment I learned of this delicious food. I have been coming here and bring any visitors I have to this location and anytime. I have traveled no matter how far I've moved away to have their delicious food. I am an avid supporter and recommend anyone who wants to try birria tacos to find any place better in the bay. Hands down Nutting you order from their locations is gold. The flavors, the authenticity. Check this hidden gem out. Leo and the team are amazing people who always find a way to give back. Best Birra truck I've ever tasted!“

“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.“

“I love their food and service. The tamales and excellent and the masa is always fresh and delicious. Sometimes they have daily specials which are also delicious such as tacos dorados and eliotes in a cup. Yum.
I don’t eat pork so the owner makes the masa with oil instead of lard, if I place a minimum order. Thanks Sergio for accommodating my diet restrictions.“

“Delicious tacos!! I got a fish taco and a birria taco & horchata to go. The fish taco was pretty good, but AHH the birria!! The best birria taco I’ve ever had (I wish I got like 5 more), and the horchata tasted super distinct and was great as well. There’s a little parking lot on the side too and an eating area in front of the truck. Ugh but yeah the birria taco is insane.“

“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“

“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.“

“10/10 would recommend! What a warm space and greeting we received! I ordered the sausage breakfast burrito and it filled me up from late breakfast through lunch time, and was so delicious!
Vegetarian options: Smoothies, vegetarian burritos, etc.“
“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!“

“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.“

“If you're looking for Americanized Mexican food, this isn't the place for you.
My dad picked this place for his birthday lunch because the food is pretty good, since he's a harsh critic.
To start we had tacos de frijol, not the usual appetizer, with salsa and cabbage. Bit of lime to top it off.
My dad and brother ordered the birria plate, which came very juicy and with a side of tortillas. They voted 9/10.
My sister ordered quesabirrias and also voted 9/10.
I ordered the super nachos with birria and enjoyed every bite. Usually I'm not a fan of nachos unless I make them myself, but these were exceptional. Was only able to eat half but everyone else scared the rest so not a crumb was left behind.
Also, if you like horchata, theirs is pretty good. Not too sweet so if that's your jam, 9/10.
*side note, we all ate birria de chivo as this is the traditional type of birria we are used to. If you prefer beef, I have no notes so you're on your own * (:“

“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“

They are only open til 4:30p so go before they close! Absolutely amazing!“

“Tacos Sinaloa in Oakland is hands down the best taco spot around! Their food is consistently delicious, with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors that keep me coming back. I love their tacos, burritos, and pretty much everything on the menu! The staff is always friendly and efficient, making sure you're well taken care of.
Tacos Sinaloa even catered my wedding, and they absolutely nailed it! Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food, and it added such a special touch to our big day. The team was professional, punctual, and made the whole process seamless. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or need catering for a special event, Tacos Sinaloa is the way to go. Highly recommend!“

“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“
