This place sells the most delicious Mexican food in Oakland, and what's even better is their prices are extremely reasonable. If I were to change anything, I just wish they would link up with one of the food delivery services available in Oakland. Being a disabled senior, getting out is sometimes prohibitive for me.
Been coming here for a while. Great place friendly ppl. Good seating with parking available. Prices are awesome with great taste and portions.
Man I haven't had a good good burrito in a long time. The cook takes pride in his food. It looks appealing, it's very cleanly wrapped. Good portions as well. The location is hard to park so call ahead if you want to grab and go. Inside is clean and well kept. If you're looking for a good Mexican spot, this is it.
