24k burrito was gas... It def wasn't a typical burrito! rice was replaced w tater tots but so yum. Loved the garlic prawn! Quesabirria was yummy! loved all the fillings. Not the absolute best one l've had but still good taquitos were delicious!!! Chicken inside was so tender Guac was yummy! Wish it was a bit chunkier but that's just personal preference. The chips were rly good. Horchata was def my fav drink! Sooo good and I feel like alot of places make it so grainy Service was fantastic and great open space. read more

Suavecito Birria & Tacos - 24K California Burrito - Tacos Near Me - San Mateo, California

See all

Been wanting to go here for a long time now and I'm not sure that I'm glad that I did. The online pics looks amazing and the items that we got were the 24k burrito's (carne asada and al pastor), birria tacos and the churro donuts. I'm an al pastor burrito guy and this one was way too heavy on the spice/seasoning and kinda overpowered everything. Also there was barely any trace of tater tots which I was really looking forward to. My daughters ate the asada and said it was just ok. One thing is that the burritos are smaller than your super at El Farolito but they do pack it in there and it's pretty filling! The birria was actually pretty good and they gave a couple different sauces and cabbage and I would recommend it. I was also looking forward to eating the churro donuts on the drive back home because I thought they would be hot n good but that wasn't the case. They musta pulled them out from under a warming lamp because they were barely lukewarm to cold so that was a fail. Overall, it's not bad, but definitely pricier than most of the other popular Mex spots and now that I think about it, I probably won't go back because of it. There's plenty good Mex around for a lot less $$. I coulda gotten 3 super burritos from Farolito for $35 vs ~$75 that I paid at Suavecito. read more

Summary: Flavorful, but HEAVY Details: They just opened up a new branch in SF, but we wanted an excuse to hit up San Mateo, and Latin American is always a good enough excuse. While photos of their SF location suggest some seeing, this OG location is pretty much pickup/delivery only: a fairly literal hole in the wall, located along a random quiet street. Most folks would probably opt to take home or eat at one of the "nearby" parks, but we've gotten in the habit of just eating in the car, which... not so great for something as messy as birria lol. I'll say that for most folks, this would probably easily be more a 4 star spot, while for us, it's more a 2 star since we're unlikely to come back. That's not to say the food was bad: on the contrary, the flavors were quite good, and the consomme was less salty than some of the others we've tried. But their food is HEAVY. Not just the birria itself, but also the burrito we got, and heavier than other places we've been for some reason, with the birria sitting in a pool of oil soon after we picked it up. This probably isn't a deterrent for most people though, so take this as you will. Accessibility: Not too relevant since this is really just a pickup spot, with the pickup window being at the usual height you'd find elsewhere. read more

Quesabirria tacos and decked out in cheese and tons of beef so come hungry. Not really an option for you to get just 1 Quesabirria taco, which makes your to-go window meal all or nothing. 3 Quesabirria tacos will run you $21, then plus tip, you're at $25++ without a place to sit to eat. Is the food good? Yes Is it heavy? Yes Any place to sit? No Expensive? Yes kind of read more

On a calm Tuesday afternoon, I was really craving something to celebrate cinco de mayo. Thus, my partner and I found ourselves at Suavecito Birria & Tacos. This place was so awesome. It was just a window in the wall with a qr code to scan. Side note: prices on ubereats are the same as the price on their ordering system, so they don't have any extra mark up. Anyways, we had ordered the 24k California Burrito with birria and the Crispy Chicken + Cheese Taquitos. The burrito was so good. They do a nice thick layer of cheese as the base right on the tortilla then they absolutely load it with birria meat, avocado, tater tots, and orange sauce. It had a ton of flavor and though it was a little oily at the end, it was so delicious and rich. The taquitos were even better to me. They were so crispy and paired with sour cream and guacamole, they were genuinely the best I've ever had. Though you have to figure out where to eat it, the food here is so good and it makes sense why there are always so many people waiting in front for their orders. read more

Must try their strawberry lime agua Fresca! We really enjoyed the quesabirria tacos, consome was delicious. The guac is worth $10, the chips are thick and crispy. I really liked the shrimp burrito with mayacoba beans. I opted for the orange sauce and it was spicy & delicious. read more

Suavecito Birria & Tacos - Quesabirrias - Tacos Near Me - San Mateo, California

Through a small, inconspicuous order/pickup window on the side of South Amphlett, you'll find perhaps one of the best birria in the Bay Area. With no sit-down dining area, this is a to-go or eat-in-car situation, which is totally fine by me. Order at the window or better yet, order online in advance of pulling up - orders can take 5-10 mins or longer when it's busy, but I assure you, the food is well worth the wait! The consommé is simultaneously rich and complex, while also not being too oily or heavy - you can taste the beef, chilies, spices, and dried herbs in each delicious sip! Unlike other birria joints where the meat can be a bit dry, here the meat is tender, juicy, and flavorful. Their quesabirria tacos ($17.95 for 3 + consommé + chili oil + pickled salad) are to die for - really delicious corn tortillas, crispy cheese skirt, tender, juicy beef, and melt cheese - the perfect vehicle for dipping into the consommé and tomatillo-avocado salsa that comes included. It's admittedly a bit messy to eat, but so worth it! If you haven't checked this place out yet and are a fan of birria, get down here asap! You won't regret it! read more

If you love birria and trying new things. Suavecito Birria & Tacos is the place to go. I tried the Birria Pizza and Birria Grilled Cheese. This was some of the best Birria I've ever had.

I went to Suavecito Birria & Tacos a year ago and never got around to reviewing it, but recently ordered this for takeout. This is definitely a hole-in-the-wall spot, literally just a window to pick up your order, no seating. The food is okay. It's not bad, but nothing that stood stood out to me as exceptional. It's on the pricy side for what you get. I tried their salsas and thought the orange one was just okay; I preferred the red. Overall, it's a decent option if you're nearby and wanting birria, just nothing crazy enough for me to go out of my way for Their customers service was okay; last time I didn't know they had no seating so we ordered and waited around 20 mins. They do have street parking. read more

Suavecito Birria & Tacos - Quesabirrias - Tacos Near Me - San Mateo, California

It was taco Tuesday and I haven't tried this spot out yet so here I am. I ordered the Quesabirria which comes with 3 tacos for $17.95. Lemme tell yall, these hit different! I really enjoyed the cheese pull and the consome was good to. This place is essentially a ghost kitchen. It's located in a lowkey sketch alleyway. You can order online and then pickup at their window. They also have a QR code at their pickup window in which you can use to place your order online. The only reason why I didn't give this a 5 star rating is because, the app never gave me a confirmation on when my order was completed, so I had to keep coming back to check in at the window. Anyways, try it out if you like. :) read more

Got a bunch of tacos! Al pastor taco- easily the best taco here! Carne asada taco - large quantity of real good quality beef. So flavorful!! Garlic prawn tacos - 4 prawns, but it wasn't as garlicky as I would've liked it to be. Chipotle chicken taco - it tasted good, but didn't really stand out. Good quality food, pricey but you pay for the quality! There was a line when ordering the food, so I recommend ordering online. read more

It's surprisingly hard to find a quesobirria taco place in the Peninsula, so we were pretty excited when we discovered Sauvecito! The place itself is a hole in the wall next to the 101 freeway in an area one wouldn't expect. There's no seating since it's a grab-and-go spot. Parking is street parking and generally easy to find. Each order of quesobirria tacos comes with 3 tacos, consomme, and some slaw. It's a bit pricey (almost $20) for 3 tacos and initially we were taken aback by the price. However, after eating it, we decided it's something worth treating ourselves to once in a while. It was so delicious and enough to share between 2 people for a snack or a light meal. read more

10/10 would definitely visit again This is literally a hole in a wall place next to freeway 101. Me and my boyfriend shared the 24k California burrito and it filled the 2 of us. That was surprising. The burrito is definitely worth the $20 price. It was huge and flavorful and they are very generous with the carne asada we chose. It's different from other Mexican places where they'd have some sauces on the side. This place directly puts it in the burrito so we didn't need to get our hands messy! Definitely would come back here to try it out again. If you feel it is sketch to order there, you can order ahead online and pick up as well! read more

Gotta love California style Mexican food. This place really hits the spot. It's a kitchen with a window that's takeout-only in a residential / industrial area. Very clean looking and seemingly quiet / peaceful inside. The food is satisfying every time and their presentation is pristine. I never really struggle eating this food in the car overall, so that's really appreciated, although if you order more than one boxed item, their thin and tight paper bags could be hard to juggle / maneuver food. The 24k California burrito includes perfectly crispy tater tots and their signature orange sauce. It's pricey but also too large for one person in one sitting, so you can split it. I really love their tots! Their quesadilla is also perfection. I've been having a hard time finding just straightforward, non oily/greasy quesadilla, but this place is it. Only complaint on this dish though is that it doesn't really come with any hefty sides (e.g. sour cream, pico de gallo) which to me is surprising and for the price, I'd really expect something -- especially compared to other menu items like their chicken taquitos that do include sides / multiple dips for less price too. The chicken taquitos might be the best my husband and I have ever had. They're huge and hefty, generous portions and come with guacamole and Mexican cream / sour cream. Their birria are also delicious but I tend not to crave birria as much. I also love their house horchata. A great balance of cinnamon flavor, and a super cold bottle coming out of their industrial refrigerator. Service has always been really prompt! read more

First time here and it's a tiny little stall with a QR code that you can order from in person or online. I got the Quesabirria and my friend got the Suavecito Burrito with Beef Birria meat. She enjoyed her burrito. I thought the Quesabirria was very good and filling! The consome was a bit different than other consome that I've tried, but it was still good. The pickle cabbage on the side was fresh and a nice break from the Quesabirrias. They packaged everything really nice and neat and provided utensils and napkins as well. Make sure to come hungry because the portions are a good size! It's a little bit on the pricier side but food was good! There's only street parking too. read more

Looking for my favorite chicken burrito place and this is up there with favorite chicken burrito in the peninsula. It is a store front so don't plan on dining in there. There's street parking only so peak times might be more difficult to find a spot. We ordered there but plenty of others were also ordering there and hanging out until their orders were ready. Food ordered: Chicken tacos (4/5): Tacos were good and the order came with 2 tacos, each with 2 street style corn tortillas and bbq chicken, an onion, cilantro topping, and slices of lime. Of course messy to eat but yummy. Chipotle BBQ Chicken Burrito (5/5): Okay!! Yum! This is a very delicious burrito. It's not your traditional nor authentic flavors at all with the sweeter and slightly saucy chicken, but if you like BBQ sauce, this chipotle bbq choice of protein is a wonderful choice. Churro Donut (3/5) I appreciated that the donut came with a thick chocolate sauce. However, it is more cake donut texture and sweetness whereas I expected more yeasted donut. Not bad just not what I prefer and expected. Overall, a great pickup good tasting food and go hole in the wall establishment. Would order again if in the area. read more

The quesabirria tacos: 4/5. Very nice and good flavor. The problem: consomé: 0/5. This is not a real consomé and a huge fail for a place calling themselves birria y tacos. It's consomé from the powder. No flavor other than salt. Really disappointing. You can see the powder floating in the broth. Gross. If you are expecting a real consomé, this is not the place. read more

If you want a new spot for amazing food. Gotta try Suavecito. As you approach the window, you are greeted by a very nice lady. Don't know what to order? She can help you with that.

Let me tell you this place doesn't skimp on the meat. It had tons of small cubed, flavorful and tender carne asada. The red rice was also amazing. This place is definitely a must eat spot. read more

Must-try birria spot - I keep coming back for a reason. This place is on my list of must-tries for Mexican food, and I've been here countless times at this point. The beef birria tacos are SO good like the flavor, the birria consomme, the sauce, the meat. Everything just hits right. This is a legit hole-in-the-wall kitchen, and that's exactly what makes it special. No frills, just really good food that keeps you coming back. Every time I'm craving birria (which is often), this is where I go. The quality stays consistent every single visit, which is huge. You know exactly what you're getting and it never disappoints. For the price and taste, the value is excellent. You're getting authentic, flavorful birria without paying sit-down restaurant prices. If you're in the area and craving some birria tacos, do yourself a favor and try this place. It's the kind of spot that turns into a regular rotation real quick. Trust me, I'm proof of that. read more

Just standing outside waiting for my order to be prepared, the aromas were wonderful. There's a wall with a window cut into it. If the doors are open, it's worth a stop. If the doors are closed, keep on driving. There is no restaurant. The building faces a soundwall that blocks off most of the noise from the 101 Freeway. The orders are made to order so you can expect a wait unless you placed an order in advance. Be sure to wear a sweater or a jacket if you're sensitive to cold. It can get windy here. Service was terrific. The order taker answered all of our questions. The menu is pretty small and simple. Best to check it online before you arrive. We ordered two sets of Quesabirria Tacos. Each came with three tacos, consomme, pickled cabbage, salsa verde and lime wedges. Use the condiments, dip the tacos in the consomme and eat! When the tacos are gone, drink the remaining consomme. Then burp and prepare for the full belly coma to come. The tacos are loaded with flavorful tender beef and tons of cheese. I would have liked a bit more cilantro but I'm just a greedy person. The consomme was absolutely perfect, not a salt bomb like so many other places. We also ordered Agua Frescas to drink. She got Strawberry Lime and I got Horchata. Those are house made and packaged in plastic bottles. Ask the order taker nicely and they will provide you with cups of ice if you like your drink super cold. We thoroughly enjoyed our food and will be back to try more flavors. read more

The food here is fire! Fast service, and like it's a walk up window where you can order from your phone or with the actual cashier. I've even here three or four times the consistency is there.

Can't eat here every day definitely a treat, but worth it. read more

My husband and I saw this place on Instagram as a literal "hole in the wall" spot. We were passing by San Mateo and planned to stop by Suavecito for a late 3pm lunch. I swear it wasn't just the hunger but everything was so good. I even forgot to take pictures of everything. We tried the 24k carat California with carne asada and camarones. The shrimp was so plump and fresh. Tater tots weren't as tater totty crispy as I expected but then again it's in a burrito. I did prefer the tater tots compared to fries in the usual California burrito. Quesabirria was cheesy, with a generous amount of meat, and delicious consommé. The chicken taquitos were so crunchy and refreshing dipped in their fresh guacamole. We parked alongside the road and ate in the car. Lots of cars came by and picked up orders during that time. Good flow of customers and service is quick and friendly. read more

I placed an order through doordash. My food was amazing. I ordered: 1. Quesabirria- it had all the fix-ins. Picked cabbage, salsa verde, chile oil, and lime. This was not something I'm used to. It didn't need all of that. The quesabirria on its own was delicious. It didn't even need the consome. 2. Carne asada burrito - perfect balance of steak, beans, and riuce. 3. Chips and salsa - Chips were fresh, and it tasted like they were made fresh in-house. 4. Churro donuts with chocolate sauce. - donuts were a little dry, and the chocolate sauce didn't help it any. I can't wait to try more items. I appreciate how everything was labeled with a sticker, clean, and organized. read more

They would be a 5 on food alone. Definitely recommended. But I did a Yelp search and found them without realizing they had no seating area, so I had to eat it in my car. Made a total mess. I added guacamole and sour cream to the two tacos I got and they were not skimpy, but it was a mess. Hopefully they will offer seating at some point. Even on the sidewalk out front might be fine. I felt like I spent twice what I planned on the food, then realized it was actually twice the amount of food I needed to eat. So it was fair. The tacos seemed expensive but they were huge especially with guacamole and sour cream. Highly recommended. Just a mess to eat in your car like I did. read more

This place is amazing! I got a little worried when I noticed something different written on my foil around the burrito, but it turned out to be the 24k California burrito I ordered--and it was delicious! I also tried the horchata and churro donuts, and everything was fantastic. It's on the pricey side, but supporting a local business makes it worth it. Just keep in mind that street parking can be limited depending on the time and day. There's no seating here; it's strictly pick-up and go. read more

This place was recommended to us by San Mateo locals. It offered pretty good Mexican food for takeout or delivery, with the ability to order ahead or at the window. We ordered at the window, with about 10-15 minute wait for the food. We had the cauliflower, mushroom tacos and the bbq chicken tacos followed by churro donuts. The cauliflower was mildly spiced balanced well with the perfectly cooked mushrooms. The bbq chicken tacos were more flavorful than the cauliflower mushroom tacos. Would recommend the chicken for a bit more flavor. I may even return to try some of the birria tacos which I've heard were pretty good here! Churro donuts were delicious, sweet but overly sweet even for being coated in sugar. I would recommend having it with the chocolate sauce they offer. Overall, I would come back when I'm in the area. Happy eating! read more

Every once in a while I will find a like This that is 100% legit. My only regret is not discovering it earlier. The quality and portion are phenomenal. I can't finish the Quesabirria in one sitting and I usually eat a lot. It's 2 meals. I also never seen a taqueria give such a big bag of tortilla. I heard they are made in house too! Can't beat that. This place is so hidden, but once you find this gem you won't want to share it. It's that good. Everything from ordering to the way the food was packaged is top notch. Whoever is running this place is doing it right. I would want them to be my business partner. My only wish is this place was closer to my house. I will be back to try their other menu items, and will bring my family and friends. read more
