Customer Reviews
WARNING the advertised online menu does not reflect what is posted in at their location. A shrimp taco listed online is $6.50, in person cash price $7.98, credit card price $8.22. That’s $2 more than what is marketed on their web menu. What a way to bait in customers. Folks should call this out when ordering from them prior to paying to have them honor their false advertising. Talk about a rip. Another surprise is the ingredients listed. The shrimp taco is displayed to be only cheese, shrimp, and coleslaw. When in reality it turned out to be a shrimp fajita taco (peppers and onions). Fortunately this isn’t the only location to get tacos at. Places like this are a dime a dozen in Pinole and the surrounding area.
Nice people but very skimp servings. For a $20 burrito you’d expect something loaded. I’d recommend driving down to San Pablo or Oakland to a taco truck instead. It’d be cheaper and worth your money
Don't know if it was just an off night but it took about 40 minutes to get 2 burritos and 1 chicken enchilada, there were only 4 other people inside the restaurant. Once we received our food everything was cold. Flavor was ok. Tortilla chips were stale. The salsa station needed some cleaning up, one is salsas had a little round container that someone had dropped. Last thing is that this place has gotten pretty expensive total was $70 for 2 burritos, 1 enchilada, 2 drinks.
Damn Good ~ Carne Asada Super Burrito for $16.52. good portions, delicious flavour, killer salsa bar
The meat of the cabeza tacos was bad, it tasted like if it was definitely not freshly made. The lengua tacos were very poorly served with meat, while eating I could only taste the the tortilla because it had so little meat, I made the cook know about it and he just ignored me.
