9/10/20 The Huevos Rancheros with Chorizo is really tasty! 3/27/20 We have been enjoying their food "To Go" recently! Some of our favorites as well as trying out other items on their new menu! Food is delicious as always!

Had their Fajitas Super Nachos, they were scrumptious! 🥘 Tasted as if I was in San Antonio! 😋

Amazing authentic Mexican food! Will definitely recommend.

This unassuming little place served some of the best Mexican food in the East Bay. Not to mention friendly service, easy parking and outdoor tables.

Found this little gem tonight. My daughter had the shrimp fajitas and I had the chicken fajita salad. 10/10!!! The flavor was outstanding! Friendly service with a relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely be back. Thanks :)

Food here is so delicious! And Allison, who was our server, was so helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, kind, and really really just a fantastic server. We will be back!

Stopped by with a group of friends after pickleball for a quick bite. It was about 20 minutes before closing but they immediately welcomed us in and were very friendly. None of us had tried this place before and we all got different things. I can't comment on everyone's dish but I did get the lengua burrito with cheese, guacamole, and sour cream. The burrito was a little too wet for me probably because I added all of those extras, but it was still delicious. The lengua was great. It was tender but still had just the smallest bit of chew. Kind of like a medium rare steak. The chips and salsa and guacamole were really good too. You can tell the salsa was made fresh and had a nice spicy kick to it. The woman who rang us up and served us was so sweet. Definitely a nice little spot for some good Mexican food. I would definitely recommend.

This place is absolutely delicious. The flavor this place puts out in their food is 5 star. So much flavor in every bite. Might be my number 1 for sure. Great service as well.

This is our families go to for tacos and other Mexican food yummys!! I love the tacos Americans with ranchero chicken. We often get our order to go and eat at Orinda park across the street. It's a small restaurant, so seating is limited, but we usually always find a seat. Mostly indoor seating, with a couple tables outside. They also have tvs so you can watch your team while you enjoy their food!

Great little hole in the wall location. Food was good, the seasoning of the food is more Central American than the American Mexican food we see most often. Loved the deeper earth tones of the food. We both enjoyed our burritos immensely, and the customer service was wonderful. I would venture to guess it was the owner serving us. Parking was okay, music was too loud for us. Otherwise a very enjoyable experience.

This isn’t your 2am after the club fling. This is the real deal Holyfield. This is the burrito you take home to meet your mother. It’s the type of burrito that your father would be proud of you dating. Enjoy every bite…skip the guac and make your mouth talk !!

For Orinda, this place checks a lot of the boxes when it comes to standard Mexican fare and covering the basics when you have a major taco/burrito craving. It's a very plain neighborhood joint, no frills seating and decor, but there is a TV that usually plays whatever is the main sporting event of the day. Also you're there because you're hungry and you need 🌮 in your belly stat. Burritos are a solid B (nothing will blow your mind but you will leave feeling stuffed and happy).

Very tasty! Mexican comfort food!! Will go again!

Folks were friendly enough but my burrito was a bit on the salty side. The music was also a bit loud. Plenty of parking outside and the shop is located in a cute town.

Just okay food, horrible service. Do yourself a favor and try the other Maxican place on the other side of Orinda village called Maya! Much better food and wonderful, kind service!

Food was decent Mex Cali fare. Order at counter for table service. Server forgot tortillas with dinner plate. I asked once and he said hang on a minute. Waited 15 no tortillas. And radio was too loud to make it comfortable environment Edit: thank you for taking my review and taking steps to better the experience

We have not ordered from this place in a while since they kept getting our order wrong or missing items. We decided to give them another try again tonight. They did get our order wrong again and as a bonus my son got this plastic piece in his burrito. No surprise, this was the absolute last time we ordered from here.
