Services awesome food is delicious. This restaurant was recommended to us by our plumber. Very authentic Mexican food. Unique dishes that are not made in most restaurants like the juice in its meat that has beans in it etc. fyi: just a little spicy! Handmade tortillas are thick and delicious, and Fresh aguas frescas. Very nice attentive staff. read more

First time visit after seeing so many reviews. Upon arrival the cashier took long to attend us since he was busy making drinks( bad first impression) Food took a while for it to come out but it was worth it. Tacos de asada and lengua I recommend. The toppings are served separately so if you're used to having them served, not here. I'd definitely give it another try and will update. read more

I am not a fan of leaving bad reviews. I've been coming here for years because the food is good but sadly I have never been so disappointed. For starters, my Togo order was for an Al pastor burrito-I received carne asada instead. I said ok, the food is good so I'll deal with it this time. NOPE! It was horrible. The meat inside was completely inedible. It was all tough fat trimmings!! This is completely unacceptable. I thought this establishment cared about what they served. I guess that's not the case anymore. Save yourself the $15 on a carne asada burrito. Cause who wants to pay that for basically rice & beans! Certainly not I. :( read more

I used to love this spot! I would order a couple of times a week. Lately though, not sure what has changed. I've ordered a handful of times and the taste and freshness isn't quite there anymore. I've called in to place orders and they've answered with hello? Not the usual business name. They've also been out of items first thing when they open and they said it was because they hadn't gotten the ingredients for the day. It sucks because finding a food Mexican food spot around here is difficult! read more

Love this place! The gorditas are amazing and every time I go to Kaiser this is my first stop after! Yum

After one of my favorite Mexican restaurants closing in the area I was on the hunt for a new one that my family would enjoy. Well I found it and my family is more than happy. We come in at least once a month and always leave happy and full. I get the carne asada nachos and tacos and my husband will get a vegetarian wet burrito and a can't forget to get horchata to complete our meal. This is definitely our new family spot. read more

Stumbled across this underrated restaurant with my friend for dinner. The interior is clean and well kept. The girls working also added to the welcoming interior by greeting us and offering recommendations when we asked. There were a lot of to-go orders when we arrived. The menu is different from other Mexican restaurants, which I really liked! The meat options also span farther from the ones offered typically. Wanting to try something new, I ordered a Bistek Nápoles Perrona. Looking at the price, I expected it to be small but the portion was so good for the price point. The steak was super saucy and the flavors were on point! There was a slight eggy taste (I couldn't find out where it was coming from). My friend ordered a burrito and that was good as well! I ordered a horchata which was not too sweet with just the right amount of cinnamon. I can't wait to come back to try their other items! :) read more

Our absolute favorite spot!! For a while, this place was our Gordita spot & that's the only thing we'd get (aside from like horchata). We came with a friend & he decided to get a burrito.... It is now our Gordita & burrito spot. We crave this place about 1x/week if not more. The carne asada is seasoned very well & just keeps getting better & better each time we try a new item. This place is a small, family run business. The staff is very nice & welcoming each time we come in. I can't rave about this place enough! read more

El Burro Veloz - Super burrito (no onions or cilantro) - Mexican Near Me - Antioch, California

Basic experience. I was looni g forward to trying it, since I'd heard good things about it. We had a few things. The al pastor super burrito (It was ok, it had some fatty pieces,the meat was lacking in authenticity and very little avocado). The gorditas, one picadillo and one chicken tinga (The chicken tinga was good but very little, beans were very runny. The picadillo was bland). The best was the barbaco taco ( flavorful meat and tortillas). I did like the onions, cilantro and limes that were provided. The agua fresca we had was the cucumber and lime , that was delicious. No complimentary chips though, they cost an extra 2.99. All in all it was an ok experience. Not the best, not the worst. With so many taco places in the area, it comes down to the little things. We may give it another chance. read more

If you would like to try something different in Mexican food, check this place out. Besides the standard meat choices, they offer Guisado, which is a stewed method of cooking the meat, and it's fantastic! You just have to try it to see. One of my favorite items is the Perrona, which translates to "kick ass," and it is! A quesadilla on a thick, house made tortilla and filled with a Guisado, can't go wrong! The place is clean and well lit, the staff are friendly and helpful and the food, again, is the best around! If you like Mexican food, you'll like this place. read more

Called in an order for pick up. Customer service over the phone was great! It was our first order from here so we had questions! The person that answered was courteous and gave us advice. We ordered barbacoa burrito and super nachos. Ingredients were both fresh and flavorful! Pleasantly surprised by quality and flavor. All of the salsas were very spicy. I hope they come up with a milder version. We'll be trying more options from here. read more

I have to say this place is really good! This was my second time having it. The first time we had the perrona & my daughter loved it! Second time around we went there at her request! Keep in mind she is a picky eater so I was quick to take her. The perrona is a shareable size, the tortilla is really nice & fluffy! I also got some gorditas de chicharrón & those were also so delicious. The gentleman at the front were really nice & greet as soon as you walk in the door. Very good food & good experience. read more

Let's start with SERVICE - simply said, outstanding! Everyone behind the counter and in the kitchen were very nice, smiled at me and I felt like I was a 'regular'. The fella who took my order was great in advising me about the Perrona with Guisados - since there were several selections, I asked what he would order and he did not hesitate and he said "Oh, you have to get the chicharron!" So, I did, and darned if he wasn't 101% right. FOOD is next... In addition to the Chicharron Perrona, I also ordered a chicken/cheese quesadilla and one barbacoa taco. My granddaughter is a quesadilla FREAK and she said it was AWESOME with two thumbs up. The taco was small (street style), but mighty GOOD! AMBIENCE Well, I always equate ambience to fine dining, but there is also ambiance for Mexican restaurants and their 'ambiance' was fine - nothing to write home about, but the place was clean, spacious enough so you weren't constantly moving chairs and tables to squeeze by anyone, and had ample waiting area for to-go and delivery orders. OVERALL - I want to thank the reviewer Don N. for mentioning the perrona - you were 100% right - great choice! The place was clean and orderly, the staff worked well together, considering that there were at least 5 people ahead of me already waiting, they moved us along nicely. RECOMMENDATION - Hell Yes, you NEED to go there. NUFF SAID. read more

MUST COME AND TRY THE FOOD HERE ASAP!! Food is always hella good, lowkey my girl put me on and whenever we crave Mexican cuisine. I'm heading straight here. We ordered ahead because I was hungry and not trying to wait, and surely enough - the food was ready on time and still very fresh. The staff here is always very positive and friendly - never not see or hear them engage with their customers' It makes me very happy that they take pride in their restaurant and want to keep it that way with the overall experience. The place is big enough so it's hard to not find a seat, they got a lot of room and they keep the place as clean as possible which I very much appreciate' They have 2 tv's always on and it is never hot inside, so we can eat comfortably - which is always a plus in my books' Overall 11/10 if you don't stop by here when you're craving Mexican food, idk where you are going' Very happy to stumble across this place, Officially BUSSIN FR read more

First time trying this place out and I am not disappointed! I got 3 steak tacos cause I was hesitant about getting too much but looking at the other reviews saying this place was good I trusted my fellow Yelpers and they were all right. Tacos were bomb! They give you, your onions and cilantro separately for those who are picky about what they want on their tacos. Meat was perfectly cooked with good flavor and their hot sauces both green and red were good too. I will be coming back to try more on their menu! read more

The SLOWEST service ever for 6 tacos and a quesadilla. We had to wait almost 45mins. Never again

The fact it was packed on a Thursday at 6PM comes to show how good the food is here. We came before that crazy rush, but you have your menu on screens. From tacos to gorditas, they have a varied menu. I went with their Burrito Veloz: a solid burrito thh. It was packed w rice, beans, protein and pico. You can also go w a super burrito. Horchata was Ambiance is amazing, as it stayed busy throughout the night and with the soccer games on, it was a live environment. What a gem in Antioch! read more

El Burro Veloz is a great spot for some delicious tacos and more. El Burro Veloz never disappoints. We've tried everything from the asada to their picadillo and it is excellent everytime. Our go-to are the pastor/asada tacos and puerco in salsa verde gorditas. We'll also grab some lengua or barbacoa. Auga fresca is good and not diluted. The staff are friendly and quick to get out food and bus tables. They make sure you have salsa, cilantro and onions. read more

I love the freshness and flavor of the asada. The shells are really fresh & they have hibiscus which is my favorite drink read more

Cinco de Mayo was a gangbusters day, Veloz was busier than usual, but there was a minimal wait and I was in & out in no time. Their website says family-owned Mexican restaurant in Antioch, CA that started as a backyard grill in 2011. I believe it. This is as authentic as anything you've tried. I don't know where you've been, but this is the closest to food truck heaven as I've tasted. read more

They catered my large community event at Antioch High School by preparing and providing 400 burritos for our students and families, and they were delicious! They were very professional, on time with our delivery order, and also provided coolers to keep the burritos warm. Each and every burrito was filled with meat, cheese, beans, and salsa, not an inch was spared. They were consistent with the amount of ingredients and flavor. The favorite among our guests was the chicken burrito. I would patronize them again for our future programs and for my own personal parties and events as well. read more

Been a while since we last ate here, all is delicious as usual. I saw they had a few new items on offer but neglected to take an updated menu photo. Will partake and update next time. read more

Excellent food. Super burrito is fantastic and has great flavor. Highly suggest, just bring an appetite!

First time here. I've heard a lot of great things about this restaurant and today we finally had the chance to try it out. We ordered 3 super burritos: al pastor, barbacoa, and asada. The burritos were enormous, I was barely able to eat half. Now as far as flavor, mine, the barbacoa I thought was a tad salty...but it could just be my taste buds. Besides that it did have great flavor. The other two said asada was really good but the pastor was missing some flavor. One issue we had was you could not tell what was what in the burritos. Usually when you look inside the burrito you can see the rice, beans, meat etc., but with these burritos you could not make out any of it. It was like all mushed up...don't know how else to describe it. Besides that. Service was great, the wait wasn't long at all, definitely fast service. 5 stars for the size of the burrito. But the mushiness, brings it down. If you don't mind it then for sure try it. read more

I'd give this place 3.5 stars. Food is good But from first impressions when waking in was only clean spot to sit was the bar top and almost every table was messy with customers leftover and trash but drinks and food and salsa was good. read more

This place is HEAVEN SENT! The menu isn't big nor is it small too. The few options they have here are honestly perfect for someone who has not had this kind of Hispanic food. And I will tell you now, the only option I knew anything of was a taco - LOL. Me and my husband had a Gordita each and a Perrona each as well. Mind you, we both thought, oh it might be small so lets order 1 each. Yeeea big mistake, because these thangs were super packed with tender meat, cheese, beans and most of all FLAVOR! We all love flavor. Both dishes were honestly the best I've had ever and priced fairly and honest. Also, do not get scared when they only bring you your food, they will give you salsa, onion, cilantro and radish on the side. So don't go thinking, "is this it?" cause they will bring it to you, just be patient. As for their pepino and lime agua fresca, it was THE BEST pepino and lime I've ever had. Sweet, but also sour and I love a perfect balance of sweetness and sour. I would honestly go here just for it. If I could order the whole jug, I honestly would! So, don't go taking it all when they have it out there. read more

I wrote a review when they first opened, & they were good , but they had gotten better! The food is unique & authentic Mexican Cuisine. They have gorditas made of guisados like chicharrón with queso fresco , queso Oaxaca , bistec con chile , puerco en salsa verde nopales etc. I don't know any other restaurant around this area that offers that, they also have your average Mexican menu tacos, burritos, etc.. Their aguas frescas are the best, sweet but refreshing! My favorite is Limon con chia & cucumber but when is not available I'll take pineapple & mango, they have a variety of aguas from your traditional Horchata & Jamaica to exotic flavor. I pretty much had try everything in their menu, I'm a regular here , I'll come here least once a week. The restaurant is always cleaned. Their customer service is always above & beyond , Ernesto, Ema, Ivan & the rest of their team have always an smile & great attitude! Highly recommend this restaurant, their prices are very reasonable & there's huge parking lot! read more
