I've been coming here for over 15 years. I LOVE this place, I recommend everyone to come here. BUT…read morethe last 2 times I've been here, at least a month apart it's been awful! I don't know if they fired their cook or what but fire them now. The fries are always so overcooked and UNSALTED, no sour cream and the meat is thick and chewy. And the cheese isn't even melted!!! So disappointed!

Always good! I've been going to Tacos los Amigos for decades. Steak cheese fries are my favorite.read more

Tucked near the Oakland flea market is a street sprinkled with authentic mexican pop stands. Our…read moreal pastor craving led us here for weekend lunch. Glad we made the trek out here. It's not the most convenient and typical location. More of an Oakland food adventure, you can to see more of the local vibes of food offerings. The spot is marked with the spinning trompo and this is their specialty. We sat down and our al pastor taco orders were off. They were definitely busy during lunch time and we were able to snag a table. Food is definitely made to order and sprinkled with pineapple. The al pastor was nicely charred and tasty. Table side salsa provides the option of the green salsa or fiery spicy red. The red salsa kicks a bunch but it burns so good. There's also pickled onions just beware of the orange slices as those seem to be habaneros. The staff are super friendly and we'll be coming back for more cravings. Cash only.

I recently checked out Tacos Al Pastor Estilo Puebla, a food stand located about a block from where…read morethe flea market sets up near the Coliseum. It had never been on my radar before, but after seeing some buzz about it on r/oaklandfood on Reddit, I had to try it. All I can say is: WOW. Do you know how The Cheesecake Factory has a massive menu with 200 items, none of which are done well? This is the exact opposite. They do one thing--Puebla-style al pastor, cooked on a trompo--and they have completely mastered it. The al pastor was cooked to perfection--not oily or greasy at all (which some places struggle with). The meat-to-tortilla ratio was spot-on, and the pineapple chunks were fresh, a real treat, and perfectly proportioned. A really nice touch is that the plate came with a flat tostada shell, so you can scoop up any filling that falls out. They offer two types of salsa picante: Salsa roja - Flavorful and seriously spicy Salsa verde - Milder but still delicious One word of caution: onions with habanero slices are on the tables. They are delicious but go slow--I overdid it and had to take a break. The stand has plenty of seating, it's very clean, and the people running it are super friendly and happy to answer questions. This is a top-tier taco spot. Highly recommend checking it out! Cash and Zelle / no credit cards

DON'T EAT AT THIS PLACE!!!!…read more I used to love this place. However, the burrito I got last week ago gave me severe food poisoning. That was the only meal I had that day so I know for a fact that it was this burrito that caused the poisoning. I was out of commission for the whole week with constant vomiting and diarrhea. This place should not be serving food without a health inspection.

First of all the consome was very oily, second the tocos were soggy by the time we got them and not at all crunchy, third the passion fruit drink was very bland and mostly ice for $9! Overall would not recommend, there are cheaper and tastier options in Oakland!

A tamale and some slaw with green sauce for $2! And these are the best tamales in the Bay Area!!!…read more I've been coming here for probably about 5 years now. It's a little stand at the corner of Fruitvale and International Blvd in Oakland. They are only open in the morning, from 6:30 am to 11 am. I first noticed this place when I was driving by and saw a long line of people. I had to stop and find out what was going on. Since then I've been hooked. My husband was NOT a tamales fan until I brought home one and made him eat it. Now he loves these tamales. They have pork tamales, chicken (red and green sauce) and some kind of sweet one the last I checked, but since I don't care for a sweet tamales I only stick to the pork and the chicken. The pork tamales are my favorite. Light, almost fluffy masa with melt-in-your-mouth pork with red sauce wrapped in corn husks. The vinegar based slaw and green sauce are self served. The slaw and the sauce both has jalapenos and has some kick. Try it out!

The hot link was perfectly grilled and juicy with just the right spice. The knish was slightly crisp on the outside, the mashed potato mix fluffy on the inside, with a strong taste of spinach and just a hint of garlic and onions. It was a nice savory treat, especially dipped in ketchup. The lines at the food stand went quickly, service was sufficient, and the wait for my order was just a few minutes, with self-serve condiments available on the side.
