We got their #1 most liked dish on doordash- the 3 quesabirria tacos with consome. It arrived without consome which was pretty disappointing. Wasn't packaged too well either, one of the salsas had come open and spilled on everything. I do appreciate that they had options to swap out meats from the traditional beef option, I picked carnitas. Wish they had al pastor for this dish. The food was pretty mediocre but the missing consome & spilled salsa at delivery made me take 2 stars off.

Extremely greasy food, sticky tables, and flies are available here. The tacos sit in pools of oil and the quesabirria starts dripping grease when you pick it up. I don't recommend visiting this restaurant. Vegetarian options: Tacos without meat are available Dietary restrictions: Food can be customized, ask employees for more information Parking: Public transit is recommended, street parking is available Kid-friendliness: Would not recommend bringing a child or anybody here Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible

The worst French fries I’ve ever had!!! I ordered the carne asada fries and paid $16 and didn’t get anything on it but cheese. No guacamole no sour cream, no pico de gallo. The carne asada was dry like leather. What a waste of money. I’m a chef and worked in the restaurant business for over 30 years and I don’t know how anyone could mess this up so bad.

Typically, Oakland, Ca. is known for its awesome mexican food trucks and restaurants that are some of the best in the Bay Area, this particular restaurajt i found while beouwsimg froupoms and i thohgt i tru ot out and qas disappoinyed. Upon my arrival at the restaurant with little to no parking, only one other duo dining, and overall forst impression of cleanliness was disastrous. The food is overpriced, not cooked well and not as advertised in menus. To top it off they had a self ordering digiral tablet that didnt work Once I received my steak fries and steak vurrito. I opened it before I left and noticed there was not any sourcream, guacamole, pico de gallo and the fries looked as if it had been sitting for too long as well as the steak. I had to request sourcream and sauce that i added. An overpriced, dry meal that had my stomach churning after the first bite. Not happy

Not a very welcoming attitude first of all, but not unpleasant either. We told him this was our first time there , and got our days mixed up. We wanted to try their $1 Tacos to see how they taste. But he didn't care. Our order which consisted of some Barbecue wings, 6, which didn't look very big or good for that matter, for the nineteen dollar price, and that was with tax. Two small Birria Tacos, with a small dipping sauce, and a small French fries, with some radishes and onions enclosed, but not very much. Sorry, I didn't think to take a photo because it took much longer than the five minutes we was originally told. Much longer. I was so disappointed by the time we got the food, I let my twelve year old Grandson eat it all himself. He said, it tasted real good when he got home and ate it, and he would go back. So that's why the three star for the food, just for him. Although the size of a full size man, what do he know! Our 5 minutes turned into almost 30 minutes. I sat in my car and watched several people, who smartly placed phones orders, come and pick up their food and leave, and watched what I assume was the cooks leave. I say that because they had the hair nets on, leaving the person who originally took my order, to now finish preparing our order. I assume he cooked it because, it took that long for our 5 minute order to be ready. They are located where Talk of the Town, the Best Mexican Food Restaurant EVER, was originally located. But they No Way compare to Talk of the Town, not even in their wildest dreams. I wish they would come back! There's NO Mexican Restaurant in Oakland who compare to Talk of the Town Periodt, in my estimation. The place looks clean, but there was no good food smells emanating from there at all. I was expecting to smell some good food, but nothing. Nothing we received looked like their published photos, was the disappointing part of the whole experience. Maybe I got there at the wrong time. It was completely empty in there. They have all the latest touch screen gadgets so you can order your food yourself. I personally will not be going back. But my grandson will most likely, with somebody else driving him. Everyone's taste buds are different, and maybe you'll be treated differently. Go to their website and see their food and place a phone order instead if dropping in which we did. Give it a try, I would like to hear someone else's experience.
