Ordered a couple of burritos to go and they were GIGANTIC, probably weighing at least a pound each! Embarrassingly I finished mine completely, vegetarian with lots of fresh veggies, beans & rice, as it was delicious. Ordered guac, pico & jalapenos extra. Hubby enjoyed his Super Burrito with chicken. Fun to watch the soccer game on wall mounted TVs and the gals in back cooking while waiting. Walking distance from Days Inn. Would definitely eat here again ~ we are so done with corporate fast food chains !!!

The food was fabulous, all fresh and delicious. Small restaurant, but great service. Would return when in the area.
8. El Pollo Loco
Reviewed By 205kiml
We do not have El Pollo Loco's in the midwest. I LOVE El Pollo Loco. I was so excited to take my husband here when he went out west with me once and he said it was worse than Taco Bell. Well no worries........I love El Pollo Loco and there seems to always be a long line when I am there so someone else also likes it. The chicken is very flavorful and seems very fresh. The taco salads are wonderful and I just love the creamy cilantro dressing YUM!!!!!!!!!!!
7. La Lupita Mexican Eatery

Located in a new strip mall, La Lupita is very new and clean looking with interesting wall art. The staff is very friendly and solicitous. However, the food was not very good. (Maybe because it was a Sunday evening.) When evaluating Mexican food, the "gold standard" for my wife and myself is carnitas. My wife ordered the carnitas tacos and I ordered the carnitas super burrito. Unfortunately, the carnitas were dry and tasteless. Interestingly, on the wall were taped pieces of paper and a white board with East Indian food items listed. Apparently, there is an East Indian connection to this restaurant, but we could not find out due to the language issue. We will not return.

Second time I've eaten here in last year. I don't live in the area, but pass through frequently. Good food with quick service. I especially liked their Pico de Gallo. Very diverse patronage so it appears the residents in the area have taken to this place
5. Taqueria Dona Maria
Reviewed By KEZC29
We were just introduced to this place by our friends who are regular customers and who love to go to Mexican restaurants, but told us so far this one has been the best!The place is located in a small shopping center, it has about four tables indoors and some more outdoors.Taqueria, literally means tacos's store, and this place offers a good selection including soft and crispy ones, choose of pork, beef, chicken, fish, prawns, or veggies! Besides the "Burritos" menu is pretty good too. And their "Mole Poblano" (made with dark chiles, spices and chocolate" its said to be the best in the area! Of course, they offers the pozole, menudo, quesadillas, nachos, enchiladas, tamales, chile relleno, tortas (mexican sandwich), soup, salads, breakfast, "aguas frescas", fresh squeezed orange, and carrot juice, rice pudding and the mexican flan!I ordered the "sopa Azteca" which is a chicken vegetables soup served with the side of mexican rice, sliced avocado, cilantro, slice lemon, and chopped onions. And the portion is really generous, and the flavor was good too. My friends order burritos y chimichanga (deep fried burrito) and they are really big too!The girl at the register is very polite, and attentive, and was making sure we were well served.We have to go back with my husband too, and I know we will like it even more than me, because of the selection on tacos and burritos!

Arrived here by chance, since all other Mexican restaurants are closed in the street. I really liked the pupusas. I found the service to be friendly. Also, they have a salsa bar that has multiple toppings.

My four years old daughter likes "Pupusas" and this is the place for the right ones, since they offer a whole selection: cheese, cheese and veggies, cheese and lorocco, cheese and chicken, pork, and ⦠besides that you can choose from corn flour or rice flour or both!This time we got our to go! For my daughter I got two cheese pupusas. And I also got two dinner pupusa plates that include two pupusas with rice and beans, and again you can choose from whole, pinto, or refried beans!I got the cheese and veggies pupusas one made from rice flour and one from the corn one! And I can say that the rice flour has a little different flavor, but I like it. Besides the rice is just delicious, is different to the red one served at Mexican restaurant!Another plus was that we were there after 5 p.m. meaning after lunch and just before dinner so it was not busy, but they had some orders to go. And usually this place gets busy at the times! So, just keep this on mind if you want to enjoy your meal.If you want just made pupusas you have to way to be cook, so please just be a little patience, they are not like fast food!Every body was really polite and courteous and have a nice conversation while we waited for our order.
2. Los Cerros Mexican Food

We eat at Los Cerros frequently. It's reasonably priced and unlike the larger chain Mexican restaurants. Its family-run and now in a new and larger building just up the street from their former location...4241 Valley View Road, El Sobrante (corner of Sobrante Avenue). Very friendly staff and clean, comfortable environment. Been in business in the El Sobrante community for 20+ years. That in itself is a great testimonial!
