  This review is only for the Tacos. I see a lot of negative reviews for burritos and I cant speak to those but the tacos are perfect! 2 small corn tortillas, topped generously with meat, sprinkled with onions and cilantro, perfection! The carne Asada is the best I've had in the bay area, the chili colorado is my second choice and shredded beef also good. I dont eat much pork so I cant speak to those.
  We have also tried the chips which were obviously very fresh and generous portion.
  All the salsas are fantastic also, the pico has a nice bite, there is a medium heat smoky one I really love and the hot adds a lot of heat and good flavor as well.
  This is my go to place for tacos through Doordash and they always arrive in great shape, warm and delicious!
  Also you can get 12 tacos for $29.99 which is a great deal for the bay area!

  We came here out of curiosity. I didn't read any of the reviews until after we had our food. Honestly, we liked it! We got two carne asada super burritos and a nacho. People who say the food is bland are idiots. It was all great. My only complaints are that the burritos fell apart way too easily and early (oh well... Not a huge loss) and the drink prices are insane ($4 ea for the orchata and fountain drink. That amounts to highway robbery).
  
  Other than that, I'd come here for the food again in a minute!

  3 1/2  Humble little taqueria. (My favorite kind of taqueria.) I wasn't a fan of their chip-salsa. It wasn't super flavorful. To me, salsas are really important. I did enjoy my nachos.

  Here for the menudo. It has pata if u don't like pata u will probably have to ask them not to put it in! The pieces are too small and not cooked all the way! The flavor well it tastes like the pan no flavor really! My husband says it tastes too cowy! I gave it a 3 out of ten only because it's  a little pricey for mostly juice ur paying for!  My husband gave it a 2!!  The ladies could be a little friendlier! No smile? Come on, it's not gonna hurt to smile! Going to try the side order of flautas! Hopefully I'll come out of here a little satisfied! Btw Burritos look huge! Ok they took forever making a la carte flautas and pretty pricey for two small tquitos but was pretty good!

  El Dorado- the city of gold indeed. Small, family-owned, restaurant that could easily be overlooked due to its location in a strip mall on corner of Hamilton and Meridian. For two years I have debated putting a review up on this restaurant because it's one of my secret favorites... And once the secret is out, the dynamic may change. Well, thanks to DoorDash, the secret is out. And despite the increased hustle bustle, this restaurant has not lost its superior dynamic. The restaurant model is very simple: choose whatever you want from the menu, which includes an assortment of fresh cooked meats, handmade refried beans, and Rice which are visible behind the glass counter. My favorites, of course, are not viewable... or even on the menu including chilaquiles with eggs and the option of red or green sauce and my absolute favorite - Gorditas. I have my gordita with steak, refried beans, and their handmade hot sauce. They have a selection of amazing hot sauces! The refried beans are particularly awesome. I ignore my screaming arteries and enjoy a bowl of it.! Yum! The food is always consistently good. There is a small bathroom available to customers in the back, which is always clean and stocked with soap. What really makes this experience five stars are the sisters Who own this establishment- They are all kind, professional, and exhibit sincere hospitality. Every time I eat here, I feel like I'm going home because they treat me like family. If you're in the mood for delicious, authentic, affordable Mexican food in a clean, family friendly restaurant, try this one!
