Nothing special, ordered chicken tacos and it was just a pile of chicken on two very small tortillas. Probably will not go back.

Burrito was insanely dry. I ate it because I was hungry, but I won't be back. There are too many other better options.

Great spicy Mexican food (of course plenty of non spicy as well!) the place is nice and clean the music can be a bit loud sometimes, the service is pretty average, add the Menu is pretty good, I highly recommend the al pastor Tortas! Super delicious!

Horchata is really good (5/5) highly recommend! Co-worker got the pepita salad and said it was good Another co-worker had the chicken super burrito, complaints I had 4 tacos: 2 chicharron, 1 Al pastor, and 1 carne asada. Chicharron was good, carne asada was good, I'll pass on the Al pastor (my local taco trucks have fresh Al pastor that they cut right off the spit, so I'm spoiled and my expectations are higher for Al Pastor) Chips and salsa was also a pass. The "salsa" had zero flavor and I ended up dipping the chips in the hot sauces. Orange hot sauce had my mouth on fire and green salsa was really good too. It gets really busy at lunchtime and parking is limited and kinda tight. Worth a try if you're in the area

I dunno. I like it but they're kind of cold. They misheard my order due to a language barrier and refused to acknowledge that they misheard, even though my spouse heard me repeat. Next time I'll ask them to read the order back to me, which would be good customer service to do without being prompted. Also, no other Mexican restaurant in Marin charged for chips except this place. The food is good though.

When I'm in the neighborhood and in the mood for good Mexican food I always make it over to Picante Taqueria! This place can get packed, so either plan on beating the standard lunchtime crowd or take out. With the nicer weather coming there is the outdoor seating option. Inside has booths and tables. Large delicious portions at a reasonable price. Beer on tap or bottles. Parking may get a bit crowded, but if the parking lot is full you can park in the street. I love their super burrito with 1/2 Al pastor and 1/2 carnitas. The super nacho a huge plate! If you're around, try Picante!

I am an SF mission burrito snob so I was a doubter when a pal suggested this spot in San Rafael. It's great. Best seafood super burrito ever and $12.50. Really reasonable prices. Spacious dining area. It's a gem. I'll be back for sure

It's not complicated. It's simply the best Mexican restaurant in San Rafael. If not in all of Marin. I have never been unhappy with a meal here

I received bad treatment from one of the cashiers yesterday, apart from the fact that they were not serving because I was talking to their colleagues, I bathed in an inappropriate manner.

Hands down best tacos in San Rafael, actually I'd say best tacos this side of the Richmond bridge. Very authentic Mexican food. The orange salsa they have is AMAZING.

Had a huge order of burritos and they had it ready in 10 minutes. Really great service and super quick. Would recommend going here for lunch.

Sadly, the quality has dropped a bit on the last couple of visits. They were cutting some corners on the machaca sadly.
