We got the nacho plate with two kinds of meat - Birria and Al pastor. Both meats were incredible,…read morethe birria was stewed well, flavorful and tender and not grisly like some stew meats can be. The Al pastor was nicely grilled and not too fatty, much better than the last time I was there. My only complaint is the guacamole does not taste nor look like it was made on premise. Otherwise, it was one of the best nacho plates I've had! They have an open salsa bar with lots of choices for salsas as well as pickles and pico de gaio. Chips are the thick restaurant style ones I like.

So after 7 months of living in Castro Valley, I finally made time to give this place a try. Ive…read morebeen told by a lot of folks that the food here is delicious and judging from the line I saw when I came in, it looks to be the case. Note, this is more of a review of the taqueria attached to the market and not the market itself, though it looked like it had all the essentials. Meat wise, it's definitely missing my favorites but in this case, it's actually a good thing because it means I'll order things I dont normally order as much. I went with a chivo (goat meat) taco and a super carne asada (grilled steak) burrito. I also picked up a bag of chicharron con carne (pork cracklings with meat) and a side of refried beans. They lady that took care of me was super nice. I love places like this because it gives me a chance to practice my Spanish. What's so awesome about this place is that they are grilling the meats right in front of you, which makes me want to order everything. I took everything home to the family they all loved it. The steak was super juicy and it might be one of the better carne asada I had. Everything tasted super fresh. The chivo taco was very moist and delicious as well. As for the chicharrons, it's chicharrons, it's almost always going to be good and the beans, were delicious as well, wish I ordered some arroz on the side to go with it. I bought the pre-packaged chicharrons by the checkout but if you want yours a little warmer, you can buy at at the meat department in the back of the store. All in all, Im definitely coming back and looking forward to trying their other meat options like al pastor and barbacoa. Given how small their work space is and how busy they might be, be prepared to give some extra time, especially if you are like me and bringing the food back home.

I used to live in the East Bay about 10 years ago and would always hit up this location for their…read morecheese fries and agua fresca. The location has been consistent in delivering great food--I always get either their carnitas cheese fries or their barbacoa cheese fries with a bit of consommé (broth) added to it. Their cucumber limon agua fresca always hits, and I recommend their sandia fresca when it's available. Over the years, it's been a place where I have positive memories, as it carried my wife and me through tough days back in college. This was, and still is, a great and affordable meal that acts as both lunch and dinner due to how generous the portion is. The only caveat I have since trying the location after a few years of not stopping by is that they changed their French fries. I think right now they cut potatoes and deep-fry them, versus what it was before, where they were more "restaurant style" fries. The texture is slightly different; however, the flavor has been consistent and still tastes like what it was 10 years ago. A true hole in the wall--the only issue is parking can be quite hard to find, lol! Service is fast if you make it before peak lunch or dinner hours, haha! Love this place.

Really wanted to like this place, but sadly it was a let down. Fiancé and I ordered delivery and…read morethe food came fast and warm. My fiancé was super disappointed with his carne asada plate. The carne was more of a bistec than a carne asada. The cut of meat was tough and flavorless. I opted for the Friday fajita special which comes with chicken, shrimp and steak. The shrimp was solid, cooked perfectly. Sadly the chicken and beef were overly salty and the beef was chewy. The standout was their rice, it was excellent. Not sure we'll be back especially if they use this "carne asada" meat in other dishes. Definitely better options around!

Food: Al Pastor Taco - good, generous amount of meat, topped with diced onions, cilantro, and salsa verde, the al Pastor had good flavor, wish there was a bit more char and pineapple but pretty tasty, corn tortilla was excellent, soft and pliable with nice toasted corn flavor Carne asada - very good, perfectly cooked steak that was tender with a char from the grill, also topped with onions, cilantro and salsa verde, same great corn tortilla, favorite of the proteins that we tried Suadero - okay, brisket was a bit dry and had the shredded texture reminding me more of carnitas, same toppings as the other taco, generous portion of meat, this one benefited from an extra squeeze of lime juice and some salsa roja from the salsa bar Service was solid, order at the truck window grab a number and wait for your corder to be called. Wait for our food was about 10-15 minute. They do have a topping and salsa bar with two types of salsa, limes, radishes and cucumber. Overall really enjoyed Tacos Gonzales, more of a 4.5 star overall, food was flavorful and freshly prepared. The carne asada was some of the best I've ever had in the bay area.

We were brought fresh tortilla chips to start, which were great, along with a Lazy Susan-style setup of salsas and toppings. Unfortunately, this was a bit of a miss for me--there were raw onions, raw jalapeños, a green salsa, and more of a plain red hot sauce rather than a true salsa. I would have preferred something more traditional like a good pico de gallo or a more balanced house salsa. Ordered a bottle of Dos Equis, which at $7 felt a bit steep. Most entrées were priced between $17-$25, which is pretty standard. I had the carnitas and they were excellent--really flavorful and well-prepared. I also tried a bite of the chile relleno, which was solid as well. Overall, the food was good and the service was strong. That said, it's a bit out of the way for me, and while I enjoyed it, I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back.

Tacos Mi Reynita has officially ruined all other tacos for me nothing compares to their quesatacos!…read moreThe flavor, the quality, the crispiness... absolutely unreal every single time. You can tell everything is made with care and it shows in every bite. I also LOVE that they give you grilled onions and serrano peppers on the side. Un platillo mexicano nunca le puede faltar unos chilitos asados It just makes the whole experience that much better and more authentic. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. It's hands down my favorite taco spot. My only complaint? I wish they opened earlier because I'm literally craving their tacos all day every day! If you haven't tried them yet, you're seriously missing out.

When we walked in, there was only one person handling everything--taking orders, working the register, and serving food. At first, we thought it was a semi self-service setup, so we ordered at the counter and then found a seat. My husband ordered the steak breakfast, but the steak was unbelievably thin. I got the super burrito, which was not "super" at all--the portion was smaller compared to other Mexican places, and the flavor was pretty bland. We spent about $46 in total, including tax and tip. At least we got to try a place my husband had been curious about, but unfortunately, it's not somewhere we'd come back to.
