    Fish tacos!
    Yahaira M.

    While visiting a friend in Vallejo, we decided to satisfy our craving for Mexican food and ended up at Linda Patria. What a pleasant surprise. I ordered the fish tacos, and they were absolutely delicious. Even the salsa served with the chips stood out because it tasted incredibly fresh. The real showstopper, however, was the watermelon margarita. They literally cut a fresh watermelon and blended it to order. That alone deserves extra stars in my book. The service was excellent from start to finish, and we had no trouble finding parking despite the lot having only about ten spaces. The day we visited, they were playing '90s Latin pop classics from artists like Cristian Castro, Ricky Martin, and Fey, and I was loving every second of it. The restaurant has plenty of seating, a welcoming bar area, and a fun atmosphere that made us want to stay awhile. My friend and I left feeling like we had just discovered a new favorite Mexican restaurant, and we will definitely be back.

    Steak and shrimp burrito
    Marie E.

    I ordered the steak and shrimp burrito this time through DoorDash and it did not disappoint. This burrito is absolutely massive and packed with flavor. The steak and shrimp were seasoned well and they didn't skimp on the fillings. I ordered it without beans yet it was still incredibly hefty and satisfying. I really like Linda Patria and I'd definitely recommend this burrito to anyone looking for a delicious, filling meal.

    Ground beef enchiladas
    Karen C.

    We ordered 2 ground beef enchilada dinners for delivery. Bevause we had to pay extra for out of area delivery, with tip, taxes, and fees it was $91. Pros: The enchiladas were tasty, the salsa was the bomb - spicy like I like it, and even the chips were good. The refried beans and Spanish rice were good as well. Everything was fresh, and still reasonably warm. What could have been better? We ordered red sauce but received green, and there was very little meat in the enchiladas. Minus 1 star for these faux pas. I would definitely do it again!

    The food was authentic and very delicious, top Mexican food I've had. The margaritas were amazing, and they did not pour light! Service was excellent, our waiter was attentive. Surprised this place wasn't packed

    Delicious steak Burrito .

    After 30 years here in town, coming from the Mission District in SF, we finally found a great Mexican restaurant. We shared the wet burrito and taco shrimp ceviche and they were delicious To top it off, the staff were friendly. They have: Easy parking, bar, and good for small group.

    I did not dine in so I can't speak on the ambiance inside but the food is 10/10. These were some of the most authentic tasting quesabirrias I've had in a while. Can't wait to go back.

    The interior had a very family feel with a traditional Mexican flare. Decent bar. Friendly and attentive customer service with a very obvious intent to please. Great beverage selection to choose from. Menu had plenty of options, but not overwhelming. The food came out at a good pace considering it was a Sunday afternoon and we were behind a big crowd. Food was absolutely epic. This oils my third visit and was pleased more each time I have gone.

    Machacas, so good!
    Steven T.

    I may have a new favorite local restaurant! This really says something as Vallejo is FILLED with great mexican options, but we really, really loved everything about Linda Patria. Service was great, food was fantastic, and the vibe of the place was awesome inside. I especially love that they have machacas which is my fav thing for mexican breakfasts!

    Great Mexican food! I enjoyed my lunch and will be coming back. The server just need to smile more :) but he is nice.

    Newish restaurant in town! Opened a few months ago, but randomly checked Yelp and stumbled upon it. I went for a lunch special where I got an enchilada, soft taco, beans and rice for less than $20. Service was fast and efficient. They had a wide range of food selections that I appreciate it. My enchilada was so flavorful and the meat wasn't dried out either. They did not skimp on the filling in which I know a lot of places do. This was hefty and you can notice how stuffed it was. My taco was simple, but I liked how the tortilla actually held up. No need for a double stack of tortilla. Decor is pretty similar to what the previous restaurant was before so it's more on the nicer dining side. I will be returning and can't wait to try out what else I can get my hands on.

    5/7/25 FYI. Super burrito
    Lee D.

    What a roller coaster experience. Jump straight to "service" for an explanation of the roller coaster.. Quality/Quantity - Complimentary Chips - Good. I actually like the slight "kick" on the sauce. Wet Burrito - This was HUGE! Hope you can tell from my pictures. Good flavors. I also liked the fact that they gave me hot sauce on the side so I/we can control how hot or not we wanted. See below service comments also. Super Burrito - My daughter also enjoyed it. We both took half our burritos home. Again, they were HUGE! Atmosphere - Small local business. Indoor and outdoor seating. Clean open kitchen Small private parking lot. The restrooms had an unusual smell... Paper towel dispenser did not work, but there was another small roll on the counter. Open 7 days a week from 9am or 10am to 8pm. Service - Drove into the private parking lot = Happy. Really appreciated safe and private parking lots to minimize auto break ins. Walked in and stood behind the "Please wait to be seated" sign and was greeted with a "WAIT." No please, nor I will be right with you... Okay, so we waited and waited. No big deal. Sat down as the 4th customer/party (4th table, approximately 10 people total in the restaurant) - Okay, maybe he just could not handle the 3-4 tables?!?! No problem... I watched as he was "running" around working hard. I felt a little better as I am understanding and compassionate. After ordering and getting our food, he flew by us 4 times and checked on us, thanks. Got us extra salsa for the chips, thanks. The food came out reasonably fast and of very good quality. Even gave me hot sauce on the side, thank you. Then the check came (and if you are following, I have had to resort to checking all my receipts as discrepancies happen now more often than not...). Sadly, I got overcharged $1. He tried to explain to me that I saw the wrong price on the menu, that there was extra cheese and... He then walked over to the menu and realized that the price on the menu was $15.99. Flipped a few pages over to show me the "Prices subject to change" sticker. Now I'm ready to just leave. If you would have just told me that my order was going to be $16.99 when I ordered, all of the above could have been avoided, and I would have still ordered what I wanted. But I do not appreciate the "bait and switch." Price - $35 + 15% tip. I did not want to "punish" the employee for the owner's pricing differences. Well I actually usually tip more than 15%, so maybe he could have handled our exit better. Owner Comment - Please invest the $$ on your menus to have the CORRECT prices. I will probably not be back as this left a bad taste in my mouth. Pun intended.

    Are there any vegan options?

    They offer vegan nachos, salads, and you can opt out of having any meat in your burritos. Hopefully that helps.

    I love this place. I've been here several times. I definitely need to put a photo next time…read more Pros: It's away from the busy part of downtown Walnut Creek so its easy to park without getting charge. They have a big parking lot in the back. Its nicely done inside, clean and the outside patio is very quaint. Although the view is the street and the postal office, its still nice to sit outside on a nice warm day. Service is always warm and friendly. The bartender is always greeting people and the waitresses are always checking on you. The food is great! My husband always orders the trio enchiladas. I normally get the Arroz a la ezkina because it reminds me of a paella. I tried the street tacos and fajita too. Cons Sometimes the arroz can be salty. But I'm sensitive to it so it might be different for others. I still order it over and over again and let them know to go easy on the salt. Last time we were charge for chip refill. That's fine but surprising.

This Spanish/Mexican restaurant is simply EXCEPTIONAL. It's located across from the Post Office in Walnut Creek, just a short distance from the swanky North Main Street restaurant and bar scene. "Ezkina" is Basque for the Spanish word "esquina" which means "corner," and you can spot the difference the minute you walk in: real cotton/linen napkins on every table - none of the polyester or paper nonsense. Order a drink. Every cocktail is top-of-the-line. My wife had a margarita, and I had a Manhattan. Did the bartender go to Harvard's Bar Tender's School? We savored every sip. We enjoy trying new dishes, so this time I had the Chicken Mole De La Casa, and my wife had the Huitlacoche Stuffed Chicken (Huitlacoche adds sort of a smoky, woody, mushroom, and black truffle taste to the dish). Both were out-of-this-world delicious. AND, as a surprise, they offered an off-menu dessert: Carajillo Bread Pudding (a rich spiked bread pudding with notes of coffee and Licor 43 topped with vanilla ice cream). So the next time you're heading to the Post Office, bring a thirst for something new and visit Ezkina... there's a ton of free parking behind the restaurant. Main Street eat your heart out.

Definitely recommend checking this place out! Try to come early, especially on weekends, because it gets really packed. It's not a big of a place so gets busy, ambiance is very casual.

Now for the bad news: I hate to write this review because everyone was so immensely nice but the super burrito was genuinely a let down and honestly difficult to finish. Problems: the burrito is enormous and incredibly mushy. So mushy that I literally couldn't lift it up without it flopping around. There is just zero structural integrity because the tortilla wasn't toasted/seared. The lengua was almost too soft which is crazy to say but the whole thing felt like baby food in my mouth. There was also no texture. Other than the meat everything else just tasted like one homogeneous mush. That also compounded with the flavors because they were all one mush as well. I couldn't tell there was sour cream in the burrito and it didn't taste like there was any salsa either. All to say there was nothing to cut through the fatty oily taste of everything else in the burrito. The tortilla was soft and oddly wet too. Overall, I cannot recommend the burrito here. It's not worth $20. How to improve: add more rice/lettuce/beans/something hard for texture (maybe even cook the meat longer to make it not so soft), and add more sour cream or lime or salsa to cut through the fat. Finally and most importantly grill or sear the tortilla at the end to give it some structural integrity. I really hate to write this review but I was just so disappointed after such an excellent experience in the restaurant. I'll be coming back but I won't be ordering the burrito.

I will preface my review with the caveat that if you are in a hurry, order ahead for pickup or choose to go somewhere else. Busy times of the day could mean longer waits. I have been living in Contra Costa county for almost 4 years. Finding Mexican food to our liking has been difficult until we found this place. Here are the reasons why we like it. 1. Everything is house made. Chips and salsa both freshly made and salsa has a kick. The restaurant doesn't charge you for these delicious snacks. 2. Best ever skinny margaritas which means they don't use a premade mix and the house blanco tequila is decent. 3. The choices for protein are good. Not many places have a ground beef burrito. 4.
