Tres Hermanas 12620 San Pablo Ave, Richmond Mexican • $$

“I ordered the chilaquiles rojos with steak...they were excellent!
The sauce was not overwhelming with spice or hot, which gave me room to add just enough to make it perfectly right to how I like it. The tortillas had fresh taste and they were still crispy, even though the chilaquiles had plenty of sauce. The steak was good quality beef also.

Overall, the best chilaquiles I've had in a very long time. I will definitely come back again and based on this meal...I highly recommend it!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 👍🏻”

When I got there I had to wait a minute, because they were busy but it wasn't long. They gave me an extra Thai iced tea on the house, I didn't need it. Yet it shows the type of business I'm eating at. The ambiance is very welcoming. The art work on the walls of the culture is beautiful. Would recommend friends/family to come and try this place out.”

“So glad to find out they reopened after being closed a while during the pandemic. Currently you have to pre-order a day in advance for pickup so it takes a little planning but so worth it.Their fried chicken is so crispy. I ordered it with waffle fries and they say they only fire up the fries just before your pickup time so that they're fresh. When I went to pick up my order, they let me know it would just be a few minutes because the fries were finishing and when he came out with my order, he said he accidentally made the salad but included both the fries and salad and threw in a vanilla pudding. Everything was so delicious. Even the bonus pudding had flecks of vanilla bean and tasted so much better than the instant stuff. The chicken and fries were enough for 2 meals.”

“This is hands-down the best acai spot in the Bay. Trust me—I’ve tried all the top-rated acai bowls around and none of them compare to the quality and flavor you find at Brazuca. They import their acai straight from Brazil, and it’s mixed to produce the perfect sweetness and texture. Go for the traditional bowl, which blends in condensed milk and milk powder for an incredible flavor profile. Even if you’re not near Richmond, it’s worth the drive! You won’t be sorry.”

“I'm not a fan of spicy food, but I am a fan of flavorful and delicious food! This place is the real deal, and worth EVERY dime spent. I can customize my food by asking for nothing spicy... and they comply! However, I must say that I'm addicted to the Crab Fried Rice!!! I don't have to customize any of it. I was even brave enough to order the Tom Tom soup which is Hot and Sour soup. This soup is a tasty medicinal soup for any stomach issues or cold and flu issues. What I like the most about this soup 🍲 is that my feet are dancing while I am basking in this flavorful dish You owe it to yourself to get wrapped up in the warmth and and flavorful aroma while healing your body and soul. I call this soup "A vacation in a bowl" and I challenge anyone to step up and try it, You'll thank me mm for the recommendation 😎👍. Toodles to all as I send you blessings, peace 🕊️ and safety to you and your loved ones ☺️🙏😎.”

“TLDR: Unforgettable quality and taste at a higher than average price. Top-tier quesabirria and consume, soft tortillas (possibly homemade?)

This restaurant is probably single-handedly keeping its plaza alive. I've been regularly eating here for at least four years and it easily has the most delicious Mexican food in the whole East Bay, maybe even whole Bay Area. When my friends come to visit, I always take them here to eat and they all agree with my sentiment. One of them still thinks about the quesabirrias to this day.
quesabirrias - the tacos and consume are match made in heaven
birria ramen - the tapatio container is aesthetic and easy for take-out. I can assure you it's not just simply instant ramen. Generous portion of beef
burrito - you cannot finish this in one sitting unless you have the appetite of a professional athlete”

“I wanted to love it. The staff and food were good & my server was great. The setup is awful. My meal began with ordering on a shared tablet. The food came out too quickly. I had a miso soup & salad -- but my entree came out before I was even close to done with either. Then the kids/mall of it all. A kid loudly banging on the piano outside, another kid refusing to put his phone away to eat -- kids screaming and whining. It's not the experience I want at a restaurant, certainly not at sushi. The restaurant has little to no control over that, so no stars off for obnoxious other guests. The TVs ruined the vibe. It's so cute inside, why ruin it with screens everywhere???? Paper menus, ask the mall to move the piano, ditch the TVs and it could be a really great place. Still good food and workers. Not sure if I'll go back soon.”

Phila Burger Station 1100 23rd St, Richmond Fast Food • $

“If you’re anywhere near Richmond and haven’t stopped by Phila Burger yet, you're missing out on great food. I've tried most of the times in the menu, and I've never walked away disappointed. The food tastes amazing and hits every single time. Fresh, flavorful, and everything you want from a burger.

What really makes this place special is Sam. He’s the kind of person who remembers your face and name, your usual order, and makes you feel like more than just a customer. Honestly, at this point, I’m convinced he should just run for mayor of Richmond.

It's safe to say that many people in the Rich know about Phila Burger for good reason. But if you’re coming from outside of Richmond, do yourself a favor and give this place (and the city) a chance. If there’s one meal that’ll win you over, it’s right here.

Richmond, this is something to be proud of.”

We ordered the lunch specials to go: Hunan Beef (it was tender with the right amount of spice and sweet and veggies) with Chow Mein (plump and juicy) and Sesame Chicken (crispy, tender, flavorful, coating on a few pieces were a little excessive..but it was edible) with Fried Rice (very tasty, wasn't dry, no soy sauce needed). Overall the food was delicious and I need to kick my own butt for not discovering this hidden gem in Point Richmond a long time ago. I think this will be my spot from here on out, and yours, if you give it a try! Side Note: the restaurant name is hard to see and needs to be repainted but it is directly across from the library.”

“If you’re looking for real, authentic Mexican food this is the spot. Honestly, it’s the best I’ve had outside of my mom’s cooking (and that says a lot). The homemade tortillas are amazing, the salsa is full of flavor, and everything tastes fresh and made with care.
I originally came here craving menudo, and now I’m completely hooked. If it were closer, I’d probably eat here every day but it’s 100% worth the drive.
The staff is incredibly kind, the place is clean, and it has that cozy, local atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. Prices are fair for the area, and the portions are very generous. Highly recommend”

“Ive been coming to Tacos La Raza for some years and they consistently deliver on flavor. The tacos de suadero are juicy, well seasoned and cooked perfectly. I just had the packed steak super burrito and it was delicious. Salsa roja is perfect not overbearing.
My only complaint is the meat portions on the tacos are inconsistent. For some reason that bothers me.
The ladies are welcoming and friendly.
Overall, solid spot. 👌”

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Hidden Gem in Richmond – Carnitas Done the Right Way

If you know carnitas, you know there’s a difference between good and Puebla-style done properly — and Carnitas Poblanas El Canelo absolutely delivers.

This place started as a humble food truck and has earned its reputation the right way: through flavor, authenticity, and consistency. No gimmicks. Just real-deal Mexican cooking.

🔥 What I Ordered
2 x Large carnitas tacos on handmade blue corn tortillas, piled high with creamy avocado, shredded cabbage, and finished with fresh lime and radish. The meat? Perfectly slow-cooked — tender inside with those crispy caramelized edges that make Puebla-style carnitas legendary.

On the side, their salsas:

The green salsa brings serious heat (in the best way).

The red salsa is deep, smoky, and rich.

And the strawberry horchata? Next level. Creamy, refreshing, slightly sweet, and served ice-cold — the perfect contrast to the savory carnitas.

🌮 Why This Spot Stands Out
Authentic Puebla-style carnitas — slow-cooked and crisped properly

Handmade tortillas (you can taste the difference immediately)

Fresh ingredients throughout

Quesadilla de chicharrón prensado that locals rave about

Fast, friendly, family-run hospitality

Casual setup — the focus is 100% on the food

It’s not fancy. It’s not polished. It’s not trying to be trendy. It’s authentic, flavorful, and consistent — which is exactly what makes it special.

Some of the best carnitas in the Bay Area? Absolutely.

If you’re in Richmond and you appreciate traditional Mexican cooking done with pride, this spot deserves your attention.

Highly recommended. I’ll be back. 🌮🔥”

“I am thoroughly impressed with the Krispy Krunchy Chicken spot located inside my local convenience store. Its close proximity to my residence makes it a convenient dining option, enhanced by the availability of various snacks and essentials within the store itself. The staff at this establishment are efficient and courteous, ensuring prompt service without compromising on quality.The chicken here consistently exceeds my expectations, always cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. I am particularly fond of their honey mustard dipping sauce, which adds a delightful tanginess to the crispy chicken. Additionally, the jambalaya stands out as a highlight on the menu, offering a perfect balance of spice and flavor.The honey biscuits and honey blueberry biscuits are delectable accompaniments to the chicken, while the potato wedges are a hit with my kids for their quick and satisfying snack. Personally, I recommend the chicken tenders for their juicy tenderness and exceptional taste.In conclusion, Krispy Krunchy Chicken provides a delightful dining experience with its flavorful offerings and efficient service. Whether you're in the mood for crispy chicken tenders or a spicy jambalaya, this spot has something to satisfy every palate. I highly recommend giving it a try for a truly enjoyable dining experience.”

My husband tried the ribs which he said were the best he’s ever had and half the serving went home with him. It was huge! Desserts are exceptional especially the flan.

“Self-serve. No hassle. Great food at awesome price. Definitely will try their dim sum dishes next time at an earlier time. They actually use ceramic/actual bowls and dishes and not disposable/single-user like many other places of similar food.
Would love to see maybe next time they will have their own home made chili oil!

Update: visited two more times after initial review a month ago. Seems like the secret is out so it's getting crowded here. If you arrive after 1:30ish they only offer to-go because they close at 2 and it takes 20 minutes to freshly cook the food.

This place is run by a small team with only one person at the counter who is also responsible for 26 other tasks so please be patient and understanding. They probably don't mind losing business from potential customers who are in a hurry or turning away due to long and slow line; this place is probably not for you and try again next time when you are not in a hurry.”

“Portions are solid, food is good for the most part. Biggest issue for this location is the frequency they change their oil. All 3 times we have gone the chips have a much darker color and poor taste compared to any other Chipotle. Not sure if they are trying to go cheap and not change the oil as frequently or if it's just laziness, but dont get chips here, you will be disappointed”
