Pulled up on a random Tuesday afternoon in Martinez and was craving a breakfast burrito. Ordered the Birria Breakfast Burrito online and the staff was very friendly when I walked in to pick it up. The burrito itself was large and filled with Birria which was juicy and delicious! The 2 salsas it came with on the side were also on point, the green being my favorite. If you ever are in the area I'd definitely recommend, especially for any dish involving their birria! read more

Tacos Don Chai - Birria Breakfast Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Martinez, California

Best burrito I've had in the Bay Area. Big statement, I know - but holy cow..... their super burrito is MASSIVE, but that's not what makes it shine. We got one asada and one chicken and man, were they outstanding. The meats are seasoned so well and their ratios of meat, rice, beans are perfect. I think there was some sort of sauce in the burrito as well, but hard to tell. The tortillas taste homemade and are slightly grilled. Their salsas and sauces are unique and crazy good! I've found my sure fire go-to. read more

Just moved to the neighborhood and I'm in love with this place. So great having such an amazing little spot down the street. Food has been amazing so far and there are lots of more interesting dishes I'm looking forward to trying. Staff is very cheerful upbeat and friendly. I was running in to get a breakfast burrito for my wife at 9am on a Saturday. They said it would be a bit as there were 30 orders ahead of me. When I told them I was bringing it to my wife in the hospital for her first solid food in three days they kicked butt and had my burrito ready in less than 5 minutes. Very clean inside and out. Patio is really cute and peaceful. It's already getting five stars here but I do wish they had beer. A burrito and a beer on that patio would make for a great afternoon lunch read more

Had steak tacos which were great and hubby had carne asada super burrito which was also really good. The only thing we didn't like were the mini containers of salsa. The red and green were too spicy and there was a third kind that tasted like fruity salad dressing. If we lived closer would definitely make this a regular. read more

If you suffer from kuchisabishii- (lonely mouth needing food) Tacos Don Chai can help. I got my emotional support birria pizza -kuchisabishii satiated- for now! Pro tip- eat it at the restaurant- keep the integrity of the crunchy crust vs juicy birria read more

Best Mexican food in the neighborhood and outstanding customer service. They never disappoint!

FIRE BREAKFAST BURRITOS! the homies and i pull up every other day Highly recommend! Shout out John! Best customer service! read more

Very clean inside. Not a lot of indoor seating, mainly outdoor seating with shading. Plenty of ample street parking. The staff here is very friendly and they have a taco Tuesday special with every taco costing only $2.50. They have a unique menu, with items like quesabirria, to to Birria ramen to the don chai pizza. The tacos are decently sized and packed with lots of flavor. The tacos came with 3 sauces: one red hot sauce, a white pineapple sauce and a green mild sauce. The white pineapple sauce is FIRE with the Birria tacos 10/10 sauce and would definitely go back because of the flavor combo. The consome isn't oily and not too salty, I think I'll try the Birria ramen next! Overall, would recommend this hole in the wall! read more

Birria Taco's and the Carne Asada Super Burrito were delicious! Will definately come back and try more from them. The manager John checked on us several times and was friendly. 10/10 I recommend. read more

We had the chicken super burritos and they were delicious. Very moist. Chicken was shredded and chopped. The right amounts of everything. I liked the mild and medium sauces but my husband said his didn't need anything and gobbled the whole thing. My to go order was taken easily and was ready in the time they said. I parked around the corner as no parking in front but it was easy. Very friendly peeps will go again. read more

Absolutely incredible service and food! I stopped in today and was immediately impressed--not just by the food, but by the honesty. Before we even placed our order, the owner came up front to let us know there would be about a 30-minute wait. What restaurant does that these days? Most places just take your order without a second thought about your time. That level of transparency really stood out. But honestly, I'd wait an hour for that burrito. It's packed with flavor from the first bite to the last. I had it last week and couldn't stop thinking about it, so I had to bring my son back to try it--and he agreed, it's absolutely amazing. If I had one tiny complaint, it's that they close at 5 PM. But maybe that's for the best... otherwise I'd probably eat there every single night! If I could give it 10 stars, I would. read more

The super burrito is SUPER DELICIOUS, I recommend coming here if you are looking for a good Mexican spot. Definitely coming back to try the other items on the menu. read more

The best Mexican restaurant in Martinez! Best breakfast burritos and don't pass on the specialty pizza they offer! All their side salsa are amazing, but my favorites are the piña and the Verde salsa. Service is always quick and they're so friendly in there highly recommend read more

Took a wrong turn on my way home, and decided to get lunch here... and Damn, this place is good!!! I been up in this area for years and figured nothing would ever come close to my favorite taco shop in San Diego. Taco's Don Chai is now my favorite taco shop! The service was top notch too! read more

Delicious!! Stopped here during a break at a softball game with the whole fam. Staff was nice and helpful! The salsa options were refreshing and meat had a great flavor or it. Will be back! read more

I love this spot probably the best Mexican food I've had anywhere in the Bay Area. The steak is so good and there isn't a lot of chew inedible pieces like at other spots, the chicken is seasoned so well and so juicy and I'm not a fan of chicken at Mexican spots for some reason, the birria well seasoned and so delicious!! I've had the quesotaco, chilaquiles, breakfast burritos, and divorced eggs, all have been so amazing! The sauce they give you is the only place I've had them before and all of them taste great one has sweetness, one has more kick, and the other is a nice mix of both. Highly recommend going here just make sure you have no plans after might be in a food coma after read more

I had to plan a work event in the area, and provided lunch for a crew of 10. I called Taco Don Chai, and Jon helped me place the order, provided a large amount of utensils and sauces for our order, and beverages. He even helped me load the items in my car. So kind of him! Food was 10/10 and the custom service was so amazing! My team was extremely satisfied and happy, THANK YOU JON x TACO DON CHAIIIIIII read more

Food, service, awesome owners, ambiance - all 5 stars! Only great Breakfast burritos in this town.

Food is solid at this little spot! Employees are friendly and welcoming, and services is very prompt. John welcomed me in and immediately greeted me and got my order in no time. Top service. Hit this spot for your Birria needs! read more

I can't believe I've never tried this restaurant before! It deserves a rating of 5 stars! 1.) The level of customer service they provided was exceptional! They're very attentative, one of the employees named John was very nice and asked if there was anything else we needed while we dined in. 2.) The authentic flavors and aroma of the food is exceptionally delicious. We tried a breakfast menu the first time we ordered and another time a lunch/dinner menu. And both times the food was phenomenal! A must try is their chilaquiles rojo, chorizo breakfast burrito with the different sauces (pineapple sauce my my fave), Birria tacos and the Torta Birria. Don't forget to try their Passion fruit and Dragon fruit drinks, they had the right amount of sweetness 3.) The cleanliness of the restaurant inside, outside patio dining and the surrounding areas are kept well and clean. 4.) The ambiance and music they play provides such a positive vibe, it's a pleasant experience to sit outdoors and feel the cool breeze while you enjoy your food. It's a family friendly restaurant. 5.) They provide parking spaces for customers, there's also parking on the side of the street. I definitely will be recommending this restaurant to family & friends! read more

Probably the best breakfast burrito I have ever eaten. Great service, great price. Wish I lived closer because I'd be back often

Update: I'm truly grateful to the owner for reaching out with such kindness and hospitality. It really made me want to give this restaurant another try. Supporting small businesses is important to me, and I appreciate the care and effort they put into their food and service. I'm looking forward to experiencing more of what they have to offer and cheering them on every step of the way. 1 out of 5 stars Tacos Don Chai - I wanted to love you, but no. Saw this place on the news and thought, okay, this must be something special. Spoiler alert: it wasn't. I tried the birria ramen and was so confused. The meat was tough (like, chew and question your life choices tough), and the noodles? Not even ramen! They were thick, almost udon-style noodles -- not what I expected at all. It felt more like a hot pot accident than a crave-worthy ramen bowl. Then we had an asada taco... and whoa, the grease. I mean, I love flavor, but that thing could've lubed a bike chain. I gave it one more shot with a chicken taco, and okay -- I'll admit, that one actually slapped. Juicy, seasoned right, and not drowning in oil. If I ever came back (big IF), that's what I'd order. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and tastiness of my chicken tacos. The meat was tender, the guacamole fresh and the roasted tortillas were an added bonus. They also suggested a pineapple sauce that offset the other flavors and made my tacos delightful. I will be going back for more. read more

While my car was getting worked on by my personal mechanic I was super hungry and he recommended this place. It was right across the street, looked it up on yelp and really great reviews! It was a bit late for breakfast but still craving breakfast! I was really craving something new for breakfast really wanted a concha French toast but unfortunately they had sold out! But I was not too upset I did go in a lil bit late for breakfast. So I decided to go get chilaquiles rojos! Yumm!!! I absolutely loved it! To top off my experience the cashier was very nice, friendly, and helpful to helping me decide what I want. I definitely will have to come back with my bf so he can try it for himself! read more
