“The food is in good season, well prepared and the portions are large. I really recommend the roasted chicken catering menu, it is delicious and delivered warm. The beans are excellent. The "fried mojarra" dish is not mojarra. It is tilapia and almost no bones compared to a mojarra.“

“I do not frequent this area often but was in town for work. Was looking for a lunch spot and saw the great reviews and photos of the food. I opted for the Chilaquiles with carne asada red sauce. I'm telling you...it was the best serving of Chilaquiles I have ever had. Perfectly soaked chips with great sauce and onions...the meat was super flavorful. I will 100% be stopping by every time I'm in the area so I can try it all. Give them a try!“

“I have been coming for years to this restaurant , it has its own parking lot however you can usually find parking on the street. The food reminds me of when I visit family, everything tastes homemade. I usually order their burritos, their mole.“
“There is a second part to this review, which is 1 ⭐️ . I will get to that in a moment .
Let me start off by saying I am a burrito guy. I realize this place opened in my neighborhood and decided to give it a try after reading the reviews. They’ve got a couple of reviews talking about how the food wasn’t that good etc. I live off of burritos and that is far from the truth.
The burrito itself was very tasteful. The seasoning was perfect. The rice is good. The shell was cooked exactly how most people would like it.
Let me get to the one star part of My review now.
First at the counter, the guy worked in the counter, gave him my order. It was hard for them to understand kept repeating, and I gave them specific directions slowly on how I wanted my burrito made. When you tell somebody no beans and then two minutes later they come back and say you don’t want no beans no I don’t. When you tell somebody I want cheese and then they come back while they’re sitting there typing something in and say do you want cheese. With that said that’s minimal here’s the bad part. My wife cannot eat dairy I told the first person three enchiladas and no dairy, no cheese and no sour cream. I said all three of those things however I should’ve only been able just to say no dairy and they should understand that, but I specifically said no cheese and sour cream.. Specifically said my wife cannot have dairy. After talking to the lady in the back going back And fourth. The lady comes out and continues my order. She’s really a hard worker and tries too hard but I think it’s a slight language barrier. She repeated to me no sour cream and no cheese and I said correct as I’m leaving getting my order she opens it to show me, how the enchiladas were and I said oh is that sour cream she said yes I said no sour cream. My wife cannot eat dairy no cheese and she goes oh no cheese?. So she takes the tray back rather than make a new one she scraped the sour cream out of the tray and was not aware of that at the time when I got home, I had to wipe it out with paper towels. I think they personally should’ve grabbed another tray possibly remade the order if it was the neighborhood of dairy. That’s just my opinion, but the food was great. Have a good day.
I went well before lunch place was not busy only one other customer there so no reason to get mixed up here. So I don’t want to dock them for the food and trying just making people aware who can’t have dairy. Be careful.“

“So happy to find a delicious and friendly restaurant that doesn’t close in the afternoon in my neighborhood. We have been there several times in the past couple months and I’m still trying new things on the menu. 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. I’m still exploring their vegetarian options but so far my favorite is their version of chili relleno. Come and relax and enjoy the food and friendly atmosphere!“
“I loved the hospitality that I received from Chef Henrik's and the food that was delicious, every bite was an explosion of flavor, everything was very good.

“My family and I have been going to El Sol since 1984. The food is excellent, reasonable, large selection, quantity and the staff are so friendly, it’s like one big family. Their enchilada sauce is my favorite!“

“Quite possibly one of the best taquerias in Richmond, and that is saying something as there are lots of taquerias in Richmond.
The carne asada and al pastor are tasty. They also have fish or shrimp as an option too, which are just as delicious. Veggie options are available too, including butternut squash.
But my favorite cut of meat is actually the campechanos, which is a mix of beef, chorizo and pork. It’s cool to see a unique type of meat that not everyone offers.“
“Always amazing! This place....I’ve been to about a dozen times, but this was the first time since this Covid-19 business. I walked up to the front door which faces the street, and ordered at the new ordering window, my mask donned. La Bamba remains delicious, Covid be damned. The Pupusas Revuelta was tender, juicy, handmade....perfect. Never gets old. The pickled cabbage, pickled to perfection. The salsa....a nice kick but not overbearing, not gonna overpower the pupusa, and provides a nice little bit of heat. I doubt I’ll ever get tired of this place.“

“Have been here a couple times, and it’s always utterly delicious. Plus, the folks who work their are so kind and friendly. I asked for veggie tacos one time, and not only were they flavorful and overflowing, but they even checked to see if I wanted their fresh handmade tortillas — anyone can do a great meat taco, but veggie tacos are harder to pull off without actual spices and attention to detail. Salsas are fantastic. I am in love with this place.“

“NOTE: El Paisa in Oakland, and this place, are neck to neck in the east bay taco competition.The best suadero and carnitas tacos I've had East Bay, hands down, sometimes even better than El Paisa in East Oakland and I never ever thought I would say that. The old Guy running this place knows how to work a Comal (Choricera/Fritanga)I'm still reeling from the implications.Was told that the neighborhood's a little rough which is fine with me, I'd advise out-of-towners To come in the afternoon though. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Taco heavenUPDATE: One week later, and I've had tacos there five more times and each time it just got BETTER.UPDATE: after three months eating there, I realize they have hit-or-miss days.“

“Ferociously respectable tacos here. Carne asada, carnitas, and al pastor we're all absolutely on point, and their salsa roja, is rich and smokey almost like a mole, and the staff is hella cool. Five stars across the board.
Directly adjacent to La familia market, on McDonald.“

“DAMN GOOD MEXICAN FOOD! I don't care what anyone says in the reviews, anyone giving this place less than a 4.5 does not know what they are talking about. This place is literally one of the only good places to eat authentic Mexican food. Their regular burritos are 10.95 and they are literally the size of other restaurants that charge you 13$ for "super" burrito and them shi be nasty. Bomb ahh asada fries, the guacamole is so good, it has a perfect mix of lime, pepper, salt and avocado. The tacos taste the same as the ones do in mexico, you want authentic? This place has tacos that are literally the same thing that they sell in Mexico, literally where tacos come from! (Specifically the ones from guadalajara, those are the ones it reminds me of). Burritos are fantastic. The asada is the best from every other taco place. If you want to find a better place you have to drive at least 30 more minutes south/southwest. This is an honest review by a real Mexican, not a gringo that only knows shell tacos and chimichangas.“

“Working out of the parking lot behind La Loma market on McBryde and San Pablo and Bringing that real Sinaloan, and Jarocho flavor, Carlos's tamales, that come in potato and sausage, cheese, Chorizo, sausage and beef, are homemade delights, so hard to find in this world of fast food. Carlos is an expert chef, who sells out his excellent salsa first thing every day. So try to get there before 1:00 p.m., and get some while it's still there. These are the most delicious tamales in the East Bay area, made by a real craftsman who knows true Mexican tamale flavor.“

“The tamales here are scrumptious! My absolute favorite is their corn one but all are good.
The portions are huge and usually one is more than enough to satisfy me.
No discounts for ordering a dozen or more. Priced per item“
“Great quesadillas, and tortas, they had a very different texture but surprising taste that was very delicious. I recommend these dishes and the service was great, other than the feeling of being rushed in a way when the waiter suggested many things on the menu.“

“It is a small restaurant, but great in its quality, attention, service and its prices are very affordable, I recommend it for its breakfasts such as chilaquiles, eggs with chorizo and eggs Benedict's, its sound is generally attentive to all its customers, because it has a large number of regular customers.“

“This has to be the best Mexican restaurant in the bay area.
I ordered 2 tacos for a snack and ended up with enough for my daughter and myself for dinner.
The food was plentiful, fresh, and delicious and the staff was super friendly!
We had just pucked up some take out from the Chinese restaurant around the corner, but we wouldn't get home for another hour and a half, so we decided to have something small before we got home.
The $5 tacos were so good and so much that we didn't feel hungry later.
I will be driving 1 1/2 hrs in the near future to try one of their dinners.
Finally I found a new favorite restaurant again! 😃“

“Simple yet delicious..
I've been coming to this burrito place since I was a kid.. over the years, the outside has changed, but not the taste of the food. Which is very important in my opinion.. must eat here if you haven't. Start small n get tacos and work your way up to other stuff.“

“I've been eating El Tapatio since I was a kid. I remember when it was the rest and a truck. And I love how they kept the taco truck look. Great job ladies and gents. I always enjoy your food and service.
Kid-friendliness: It's very family oriented. Loving and relaxing
Wheelchair accessibility: Great tables to wheel and dine in.“
