Where is the Best Mexican Food in Oakland, California?

I started eating their amazing pan-fried burritos almost 20 years ago before the burrito craze hit! Then they added the hand-rolled burritos which are wonderful. But their best dish is by far the Enchiladas Verdes which is chicken enchiladas in green sauce. Their other enchiladas are great too as well as their flautas. The portions are great; the cheese, rice, beans, and sauces cover the hot plate. This is a heart-warming place, full of history and happy memories for my family. Their spicy salsas, always on the table, kick butt.Pros + Great value, Family place, Great food

A word to some other reviewers: tapas ARE small. They are not supposed to be a meal. They are supposed to be a compliment to an evening of drinking and socializing. That said: yes, it’s a bit pricey, but the food is so good — every single tiny tapas morsel — is absolutely scrumptious. Michael, manager/host, is always professional and accommodating. The drinks are stiff, unique and delicious. The service has always been good. I admit that my son cooked there for a time, so I probably got some “special” treatment, but my portions were the same as everyone else’s and the drinks were, too. This is a terrific place to have a lively chatter with friends, wonderful drinks and truly wonderful tapas. If you want to fill up a bit, try the black beans and/or guacamole and chips, a hearty portion of refried black beans or guacemole with chips is really affordable and very good. The meat and fish dishes are more expensive and lesser in volume, but well worth it. When scallop ceviche is on the men
