This place is a diamond in a rough spot! Being next to the train station can be a bit tough if you are easily startled, but if you can brave the occasional air horn, then you will find the best kept secret in DT San Mateo. The veggie burrito is massive! And it isn't all fluff and filler either! It is a perfect balance of flavor and sustenance. Ate more than I thought I would, and now im sitting in a theatre with a very-full belly! Do not skip the opportunity to taste delicious Mexican food! read more

First time trying Fletch's, very good cuisine and excellent quality. I loved the Hot Dog and Fries, toasty bun, bacon wrapped dog that's decent sized with mayo, mustard, diced tomatoes accompanied by french fries. I've noticed taqueria's make the best dogs! My friend loved the Chicken Enchiladas dinner plate comes with rice and beans. Everything was packaged thoughtfully for to-go order. Definitely will return. Give Fletch's a try! read more

I see all the reviews about the amazing tacos here but I needed a burrito for quick take home dinner. Regular burrito is $10.99 plus al pastor $0.89 -- I asked for spicy. The flavor was pretty good and the meat ratio was fair. Service was nice and quick. Fletch's is a little taqueria right off the tracks down town. read more

Steak super tacos are yummy, the quality of beef is good. Tortillas is fresh and soft. I am surprised it's not that busy, maybe it's the location? Hidden gem for me! read more

Had a taste for crunchy tacos. Came here while in the area. Tacos were tasty but they don't really do hard shells. The food was okay but I'll probably have to find a new place next time in the area. read more

One of the worst burritos I've ever had. I would never come here again. I got the super steak burrito and it was disgusting. Nothing had flavor but the cheese, meat was chewy, and I was so disgusted I just threw it out. read more

Wow. Really impressed. I got a chicken super taco and it was awesome. Great portion size, very well seasoned, juicy chicken - a perfect snack. Small space with limited seating - a grab and go or sit for a quick bite type spot. Highly recommend. read more

Went here to grab some burritos to go based on their reviews and proximity to the San Mateo CalTrains station. We ordered two regular burritos (chicken and steak), a breakfast burrito, and a steak plate. The food was made fresh to order; we could hear them sizzling the meats and smelling the tortillas. It did take longer to be ready than expected though which made us late for our next destination unfortunately. We didn't eat there but there's some indoor seating and a few outdoor tables. The place was welcoming and clean. I didn't see a public restroom. We ate the food in the car so I didn't take pictures. The burritos were average. Both of them had low meat to filling ratio (mostly rice and beans) but the flavor was good and the burritos were tightly wrapped so were not messy thankfully. The steak plate in contrast had a lot of meat. Not sure if I would return. The lady at the counter was very nice. The food was packaged well for travel. I just wish the meat portions were better. read more

Honestly one of the best taco spots, super affordable food, fast service, and a perfect place to relax after a long day. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who wants something fast and filled with flavor, everyone there greets you with a smile and i've never had any complaints about anything read more

Handmade tortillas are great. Carne asada on point. Always get the regular tacos. Never been disappointed. Everything fresh. Love this place. read more

This review is based on ordering a regular steak taco and super burrito steak. I give it a one star because the woman working the cash register was very friendly and the tortilla for the taco was very good. Otherwise the steak in both dishes was chewy and flavorless. Many of the bites were inedible and had to be thrown out. Thankfully the steak portions were not generous so I didn't have to struggle with chewing it. There are so many taquerias in San Mateo so I will definitely choose somewhere else to dine next time. read more

Amazing amazing food! SO good, and it's unbelievable how cheap it is for how good it is. I've been here multiple times and have tried their fish tacos and burrito. The meat is delicious, and the tortilla was soft and perfect, with great salsas! They also include tortilla chips and salsa with the meal. The staff who work there are so nice as well. Recommend the super taco with mango salsa! The place is small but has a cute vibe with nice decor. Great for takeout too. Location is convenient, next to the parking garage, but the train can be a bit loud passing by on the other side. Highly recommend this place! read more

I found this place on DoorDash and maybe that's why they felt they could take advantage of my patronage, however the pictures here and on DoorDash do not reflect the food I received! I was really excited to try this place but I feel duped and robbed. A sprinkle of meat, barely a tablespoon of guacamole, hardly and cheese on Super Nachos?! I'm offended! Please see pics and do yourself a favor and skip this place! read more

Service: Super friendly and great service. Cost: On par with the other taquerias in the area, maybe even slightly cheaper. Food: Wife and I tried their super tacos, regular burrito, and crinkle cut fries. - their carnitas, carne asada, and pastor were all very good, but our favorite was the carne asada. - their crinkle cut fries were probably frozen, but fried up and salted to perfection. The best crinkle cut fries I can remember having. Top 2 "Mexican" food spots in San Mateo. Other being Suavecito. We've tried most of the decently rated one in the area, and Fletch Taqueria surpasses most of them by a decent margin. Don't let the name fool you. Some people are hesitant to go because they use to be a hot dog spot (they do have a couple of hotdog and hamburger options). Don't let that deter you. Definitely worth a try!! read more

A solid carne asada super burrito. Pretty standard stuff. The beef tasted kinda strongly of soy sauce which I know is sometimes a part of the marinade. I'd go back and try some of their other meats. read more

One of the best tacos and quesadillas in town! Hand made tortillas, fresh ingredients, and friendly staff. Last weekend my family and I stopped by since we wanted something relatively new in the area and it did not disappoint. The carne asada was juicy and flavorful. The quesadilla had all the ingredients inside which was nice. The hand made tortillas for the taco made the biggest difference. Really worth giving them a try. Glad they're in San Mateo down town. read more

I definitely need to come back here for some more hand made tortillas! The place that my bf and I used to go to closed down due to covid but we always found that there was something special when a taqueria made their own tortillas. Everything tasted very good and the pico de Gallo was very fresh and chopped up a little finer than other restaurants. The workers were super nice and helped when we weren't sure what to get. Definitely stop by if you're in the neighborhood and support small business! read more

This place is a hidden gem for tacos. Their freshly made tortillas are so well made that they hold together perfectly, and the seasoning, flavors, and salsa are spot on. Their Taco Tuesday deals are also pretty great. It's a cozy, hole-in-the-wall spot that I will definitely be coming back to. read more

Check it out! Fletch has changed to a taqueria! I visited on Dec 26th. Authentic Mexican cook in the kitchen and simple but tasty menu! I had the steak quesadilla, and a side of beans. I look forward to having one of the burritos! read more

I used to really like this place as they have very special tortilla bread. Now it's getting more and more disappointing. I've attached a picture of a fish super taco. The total amount of fish is the size of my pinky. The last time I saw this was about two weeks ago and I thought it was just random--the young man who was cooking was busy. But this time it confirmed that it's just a regular size of taco fish.How can you call this a "fish" taco without seeing fish in it? I think I am not coming back to this place. read more

Solid carne asada burrito and red salsa, good price. Will update my review further if I try more meats.

This is a very good taqueria. I had a fish taco and Al pastor which came to about $9. Very good deal. Quality is comparable to a really good taqueria in the Mission. Highly recommend it. read more

The most characteristic feature about eating at Fletch's Taqueria is that every few minutes, you'll be interrupted by the flashing lights of the railroad crossing followed by the roar of the engine of the passing Caltrain. And yet, this tiny restaurant, built in the side of a downtown San Mateo parking structure next to the train tracks, deserves high praise for its surprisingly amazing food! To start, our server brought us a basket of tortilla chips and a super flavorful, chunky pico de gallo. We started with the California burrito, a flour tortilla encasing a filling of chopped carne asada, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, and the most characteristic ingredient, crinkle cut French fries. All the different components of this burrito came together nicely from the juicy steak to the refreshing sour cream and pico de gallo to the creamy guacamole and the crispy, starchy fries. It went particularly nicely with some of their thick hot sauce, which had a spicy yet balanced flavor. Next, I had the (Super) Taco Milanesa, which came with chopped breaded chicken along with lettuce, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, cilantro, and onion, along with sides of sliced radish, pickled carrots, jalapeño, and a lime wedge. But the best part about the taco was the puffy, chewy handmade corn tortilla that it was built on, which also came with a layer of melted griddled cheese. My favorite item of all, however, was the Special Shrimp Taco, also made with a handmade tortilla along with plump marinated shrimp, a creamy coleslaw (made with purple cabbage), and a tropical mango salad, all topped with guacamole and sour cream. What a combination--the spices of the shrimp were balanced by the refreshing coleslaw and the sweet cubes of mango, and the creamy guacamole and sour cream rounded out the flavors of every bite! Looking from the outside of this tiny, dingy eatery, you'd never expect such tasty food, but both the flavors and the value here were extremely on point! read more

Got the asada Torta, pollo taco, and horchata. The ingredients were fresh and flavorful. They had some of the best homestyle horchatas and tortas I've had. I could see that they put effort into their food. The only flaw I found was that the meat to topping ratio was extremely low compared to most other places. read more

Respectable. The salsas and corn tortillas are good. Tacos and burritos were a little dry and under seasoned. Everything needed more salt, more lime, more salsa. I wouldn't turn it down but I wouldn't seek it out either. read more

Ordered a steak super burrito and it was overall tasty, but unexpectedly quite spicy, which I was quite surprised about because there was no mention of spice level or way to modulate it during the ordering process. It was a big portion though, enough for two meals for me. read more

Don't let the name fool you out of getting a great burrito! This is where the good stuff is!!!

We walked in and thought great no one is here so it should be pretty quick, nope. We were the only people there and it still took over 30+ mins to get our to go order. Now moving on to the food. We ordered the steak plate (3/5 beans are super dry and steak is okay), quesadilla with chicken (3/5 super greasy but good flavor to chicken), super wet burrito with steak and chicken (1/5 charged for super but had no sour cream, no cheese, no guacamole- so where's the super part?), and lastly 3 tacos (2/5 made with handmade tortillas- al pastor, steak, and carnitas). I was bummed out that they had run out of carnitas and it was barely 6pm, so since I had already paid for my order I substituted fish since they are priced the same. Overall disappointing due to lack of flavor, burned tortilla, and missing condiments of the super that I paid for. Doubt we would be back ever again. read more

I have to be honest. Fletch's should have stayed a hot dog only place. I thought I would give this restaurant a chance after reading the positive reviews for the mexican food - but I was fooled. I decided to order the regular carne asada burrito but man was I underwhelmed. Keep in mind, I was starving. Came home and took my first bite and got a big chewy piece of fat. That was only the beginning. The rest of the burrito was the same. After spitting out most of the meat- I knew I made a mistake. I realize they still serve hot dogs and burgers so that's what I would order if you come here. the service was very friendly and the chips were decent hence my two star rating. there are other mexican food options in the area - just not sure fletch's is where you'll want to go for that. read more

This was previously a great slider/burger spot back in the day. It still is, but now it's also an excellent taqueria! Homemade tortillas and fresh, tender flavorful meat. I had a birria super burrito, and three super tacos (birria, asada, pollo). All were excellent and I'm definitely going back! read more

I met my friend for a quick bite to eat before the movie. I wasn't too hungry, so we shared the Super Street Tacos (carne asada). It comes with 3 tacos and it was delicious! We'd definitely come back again! read more

Great food, and quick service. The staff who work there are so nice. Great place. I highly recommended .

We stumbled upon Fletch's while walking around San Mateo downtown hungry, we decided to give it a try and I'm so glad we did. We got the chicken tacos and chicken quesadilla. The food was delicious! Loved the tortillas, very fresh. Staff was friendly and the place looked clean. Definitely recommend it! read more

I stumbled upon Fletch's after parking. I saw the menu and decided to take a chance on some Mexican Food downtown. To my surprise, it's delicious!! The tortillas are definitely hand made and one of the best I've had in the Peninsula. Everything tasted really fresh and never left me with a groggy feeling after (I always feel like napping after Mexican food) Definitely give this spot a try! I loved the Fajitas, Tacos, and Quesadillas. read more

The shrimp street tacos are amazing!! The Jamaica is one of the best I've had. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu.
