“The restaurant is the most authentic and upscale Mexican cuisine in California, and you would never know it. I don't write lengthy reviews, but to summarize: - The food is excellent - The drinks are even better! - The staff is kind and extremely polite/professional (despite what some of the haters say below - I don't have skin in the game here so trust me when I say they are lying). - And they play GREAT live music and carry a very fun, safe, and upscale vibe. Tell your friends about it, because all small businesses struggle and this is one I would personally love to see hit 4 stars+ on Yelp and more importantly bring a sense of cultural awareness to one of the best communities in the Bay Area (WC).

“Food is always fast, fresh, and tasty. I've done both breakfast and lunch here, and had great experiences each time. It's a pretty cozy seating area, but there seems to be a high turnover of tables, so seating is only an issue during peak hours. Takeout is always ready very quickly.“

We were thinking of going to a restaurant next door, but we had to stay here! The super tacos were delicious and generous. The chips were nice and hardy too. Will be coming back if I'm in the area again.“

“Delicious, fresh food! Opening day and I went in and ordered some Chile Relleno plate and a Pastor Taco. The Chile Relleno was perfectly cooked and the red sauce had a spicy bite to it. I chose the refried beans and they were very good! The Pastor Taco was really good, very tasty. I really liked the flavor of the meat from the marinade they used on it. Really good stuff, I will be frequently visiting for the other menu items! Welcome to the neighborhood Taqueria Limon!“

“Tired of going out to restaurants so we decided to go to whole foods and check out their buffet on our trip down from Washington. They're buffets are always amazing. My wife got a curry dinner and I got a chicken breast with two side salads. they advertise my dinner was $10 but I end up paying $12 not sure how that happened oh well maybe they're going to donate to some of the drug addicted mentally unstable people stumbling around the city streets here. ( normally called homeless people)“
