The sope de chorizo was delicious, and the tacos de cabeza and lengua were good. My kid ordered the nachos de carnitas & he loved them. The chips weren’t soggy. Customer service could be warmer.

This taqueria is local, and it’s very close to my job. To somebody, nobody really speaks English. I can tell that the people are very nice, but it’s hard to communicate what you’re trying to accomplish during your order. The food is good, however I feel like it’s a little pricey. I wish they had more of a meal instead of a la carte. The atmosphere is pretty good. The restaurant is clean but sometimes when people talk loud it echoes and could be very loud. The TVs are way too loud and off sink. It’s almost like urine echoes from one side room to the other. That could be annoying while you’re eating your food. Besides that great food clean place as long as you understand the above.

Quality is not the same anymore. I ordered two wet burritos and two salads, they put the wrong meat in the wet burrito and didn’t include sour creams on the side. The chicken is for some reason in super small pieces and tastes lower in quality, and you can barely tell it’s in the burritos and salads unfortunately. El Metate in Belmont is still my #1.

A chill hangout for delicious, budget-friendly Mexican eats.
I stopped by on a Friday evening — it wasn’t packed, but there was a good buzz in the air. We went for the Super Burrito and Meaty Fries — both were absolutely loaded and seriously delicious. For just $15 each, it’s a total steal!
If you’re craving tasty, affordable Mexican food near downtown Redwood City, this is the spot!

The flavors and quality here still make this my favorite spot in Redwood City for burritos. I love their pastor and the depth of flavor it has. Their tortillas are fresh and excellent too. I’m confused why salsa isn’t included in the take out bags, and I’m never asked if I want any, so maybe I’m expected to ask. I also wish they included chips or had an option to purchase them.

This place restored my husband’s and my faith in Mexican food. We come from Singapore with pretty dismal choices for decent Mexican food so I tried this with no expectations.
However, I was really, truly blown away by not just the size but the astounding quality of my order! The wet burrito was SUPER loaded with ingredients and the green salsa hit the spot as the burrito skin soaked up its goodness. The chimichanga was the real winner here as I was truly surprised by how BIG it was! The sour cream complemented the salsa very well. There were huge chunks of cheese nicely folded into the flour base and the only gripe I had was that it was too sinfully calorific as it was huge and fried. It was very oily and I was already plenty full from eating the filling only.
We could not finish our meals at all and I think one main + one side would be just nice for a couple to share. It has been 3 weeks since we ate here and my husband is still wistfully reminiscing the awesome Mexican food we got. Pity that the branches are only around the bay area and nowhere else in US.

The best tacos de tripa you’ll find in town. Place is really clean. They also have a new outdoor sitting area that is petfecy for hot days. Service was okay. Dude that helped made the error of red salsa in my tacos so they had to redo them, overall not too bad.

TERRIBLE BURRITOS! I ordered a super burrito and asked for extra sour cream because i previously ordered a super burrito from here and it barely had any sour cream. They fully gave me a sour cream burrito. There was hardly ANY meat in there and my stomach is still hurting from all the sour cream they put on my burrito. That was so rude and whoever was cooking at 8pm on 2/3 should not be making the burritos.

Yes it may take you 20+ minutes to order and get your food, but that simply due to how popular it is, and yes it’s so worth it. Amazing and authentic Mexican food work all the trimmings, and at a very low price. Has a large seating area both inside and outside.
