So good. I haven’t been in the area in 10+ years but stopped for lunch. So glad we did I absolutely loved the carnitas plate. I asked for extra spicy and the sweet hostess/server checked in on me a couple times after it came and as a person who literally puts chilis in my coffee it was the perfect amount of spice. Loved how it wasn’t shredded but sliced and had a secondary pan fry crisp. Really great it’s been a couple days and I’m still thinking about it.

I got a chimichanga. I wasn’t sure if it was even fried. Seems like they just gave me a regular burrito with guac a cream spread on top. You should try frying your chimichangas until they’re actually crispy.

There are places you eat, and then there are places that feel like home—La Hacienda on MacArthur in Oakland is the latter. No pretension, no gimmicks, just damn good food served with warmth and a sense of place.
The carnitas burrito? A masterpiece—crispy-edged pork, rich and juicy, wrapped in a tortilla that actually holds its own. The fajitas sizzle and smoke like they mean business, every bite a reminder that sometimes, simple done right is all you need. And then there’s the bean dip, an unassuming little gift at the start of the meal, creamy and savory enough to make you wonder why more places don’t do this.
But the real magic? The people. The owner steps out, chats like an old friend, and suddenly, you’re not just eating—you’re part of something. A family-run spot that understands hospitality in a way that corporate joints never will. This isn’t just a recommendation; it’s a command. Go. Eat. Feel at home.

As appetizer we got chips and a sauce of beans which was very tasty. I ordered an Enchilada & Burrito. The Burrito was very good, the Enchilada so so. My friend ordered Enchilada, tamales & tacos of shrimp. The tamales weren’t good and the tacos just OK.
The attention was very good.
I would give 3.5 stars, but since there isn’t, and attention was good, I put 4.

Don’t let the outside discourage you from missing out on some flavorful Mexican food. The food is great and the service is even better. The Chimi with steak . Don’t forget to get some guacamole!

Old school Mexican restuarant in the Dimond. Complimentary bean dip and friendly service are a bonus. I wish it was busier, whenever I go it seems only to be takeout orders. They serve many traditional dishes but the homey enchiladas Michoacanas are the real deal. 5 enchiladas cooked with chile rojo topped with carrots and potatos similar to what you would find Patzcuaro, Michoacan. Big portions enough take some home.

I love this place, it reminds me of home, I’m from Socal and just wanted some comfort food and here I have found it. Great service, wonderful staff, I’ve found my Norcal favorite chilaquiles. Everything here is great, also they give you refried beans with the tortilla chips.

While on our way to the Golden Gate Bridge we decided to stop by after looking at the area I was a little weary however breakfast was amazing for all of us!! Although it does look like a place most people just use as a takeout option but they have plenty of seating and are kid-friendly

I ordered a plate of eggs with chorizo rice and beans on the side. It was definitely a good taste in the good serving portion. It came with 3 tortillas you choosing corn or flower, I ordered flower the I my thing is they heat tortillas on the microwave, don’t taste bad, but for me tortillas taste good heat in the grill, service was good, the lady kind, and she smiled all the times, she asked if anything is need it, definitely I’ll come back.
