I  found this place online when searching for a breakfast burrito this morning. Online prices have not been... updated, therefore, are misleading, The first thing I did when I walked in the restaurant was go to the restroom. I found itclean, tidy, very presentable and acceptable. The restaurant was also clean and appealing. I ordered the breakfast burrito withthe Aidelle chicken apple sausage. I was surprised when it rang up $18.52. The Online Menu listed it at $7.90 plus $2.50 for thechicken apple sausage. The Latino woman who took my order was very courteous, polite and kind. I am a black man so I alwaysappreciate that. She explained to me that the online prices were different and I decided to still try it anyway. I struggled tofind anything special about the breakfast burrito and will not be ordering it again. There seemed to be hardly any meat or eggsunless the eggs were chopped up too fine. The meat didn't seem like it was freshly warmed up and may have been preppedbeforehand, so I enjoyed it for what it was. It was not the worst burrito I've ever had and I can't classify it as the worstburrito I have ever had but I definitely cannot say it was one of the better ones. It was just run-of-the-mill average. As itdid not meet my expectations for the price, but I may come back and try the tacos or the tamales someday, but I  already havethe best tamales restaurant that the world has ever known, so it's hard to believe they can out-do the La Corneta Taqueria inS..F.. I thought she told me she added on the tip automatically when we were discussing the price of the burrito which is why Iopted not to tip when the option came up on the card reader machine when paying. But after I left the restaurant, I looked atthe receipt and saw that she had not added on a tip, so I went back and gave her a $5 cash tip. Again, I'm a black man so Ialways appreciate the courtesy and the politeness and kindness. I would just recommend that people try this place forthemselves. Read more

Everything was perfectly seasoned and the sauce was delicious. I?ll definitely be coming back. Read more

I remember this place from back in the day when it had more limited menu selections, but now that it has been reborn as a... taqueria, and Mexican restaurant, all I can say is. W.O.W. Though I didn't plan on it, I hit it on the nose and walked in hereon a taco Tuesday and the tacos are $2.50 each, and they don't skimp at all. All. I decided to try the works and got one ofBarbacoa, one of Pollo Asado, one of carne asada, and one of what they call heritage carnitas. Now let me just lay it down here.Heritage carnitas are the kind of carnitas that I like above all others. Soft and moist with bits of fat, absolutely tender tothe bite, and full of pork flavor, these are the kind of carnitas you would find in Uruapan, in Michoacan, Mexico, at one of thestands like Los hermanos olivos. The Barbacoa, was incredibly tender, reminding me of perfectly cooked "Ropa Vieja", a Sauteed,slow cooked Cuban skirt steak, and the amount of meat they put in every taco as I said before was impressive. I got called awaybefore I could finish the other two tacos, so, rather than review them at home after reheating them I decided to go back downthere later this week and I will give you guys another review then. But all I can say right now is, that this place is anabsolutely solid taqueria and Mexican restaurant, with a really nice staff and located in the flatlands of Berkeley and Easy toaccess from just about anywhere. Highly recommended! Read more
