Having read in a news article about the Richmond "tacos corridor" or 23rd Street, we decided to venture forth and tried out a few places, as we lived in Richmond so this is literally like in our back yard. First tacqueria we tried was Tacos La Raza. Tucked in a corner of the parking lot of the La Raza Market, this place has a few tables outside, but otherwise it is mainly take-out. They are known for unusual meats, so for our first try we ordered cabeza (meat from cow head), and suadero (rose meat, or the smooth muscle between the cow shoulder and belly), in additional to our usual- al pastor. The pastor was very good. The marinated pork was juicy, just chewy and fatty enough, and topped with a spicy salsa roja. The cabeza was chunky and meaty, full of flavor and also topped with the salsa roja. The Suadero was like a braised brisket, very tender, and very tasty with either the red or green salsa that were provided on the sides. The parking lot gets full by noon with people shopping at the market, so get there early or you will be circling around the blocks looking for parking. read more

Okay, average at best! I used to come here a lot but they've been slipping the last few times. The burritos are generally good and you can't go wrong with steak. However the last few times I came here, the meat on the al pastor tacos was super fatty and the tortillas were dry. Also be aware, they charge for extra salsa! But there is still some good, plenty of parking and they're always quick. Also you can't beat their price of $2 tacos. read more

I wish I could give this more than five stars this to me is a 6 Star Pl. all day every day. I just had had the best Asada super burrito I've ever had in my life the way it comes with green sauce and red sauce on the side it was so good and tasty. I had to call people to tell them how good this burrito is. It came with a side of radishes of grilled Serrano and a grilled onion, which were all equally as tasty, I have never had a better burrito in my life. It may be in a parking lot in the corner with two green tables, but this place is the best. The people behind the counter are extremely nice. read more

Tacos La Raza is a food dispensary in the left corner of the parking lot. it's not a food truck nor is it in the Market parking lot. just 10 ish parking spaces. 1 table for dining in. offerings: tacos, tortas, quesadillas, drinks eats: suadero, lengua tacos @2.25 -garnish of onions, cilantro, salsa. -suadero tasted mushy, don't usual eat it since i seldom see it. -lengua was tender, moist, -portions decent sized, tasted fresh, good flavors. *couldn't real enjoy food here, felt guilty eating in my car while everyone was looking for parking, so i left and ate elsewhere. frijoles refritos: -menu is short, dated, simple -street parking isn't easy either. -wouldn't repeat as i doubt i could find parking again. food better than average. read more

So, you like tacos? Rhetorical question. Everyone likes tacos. The question then becomes, how much do you like tacos? & how far would you go for a really great taco? Those are questions I've begun asking myself recently. You see, I've been to the top of the mountain. For tacos, that lofty peak atop Everest is Tacos El Gordo way down in Chula Vista. That is the gold standard by which all others are measured. For quite some time, I'd given up on finding its equal in the Bay Area. I may never find its equal. But I've decided to give it a go anyway. & I decided to start this taco quest in my own town of Richmond only a couple miles from my 'hood. Tacos La Raza looked promising with a high average rating & mostly good (though less than a dozen overall) reviews. Driving up & parking on the street (though there is a parking lot, that was mostly empty) around 6:00-ish on a weekday evening, it wasn't busy & there wasn't any line to order. Looking over the menu posted on a sign outside, what I noticed 1st & most importantly is that they have Cabeza! Tacos de Cabeza are my absolute favorite taco. I got a couple of those & a couple Tacos al Pastor. The number of meat options for tacos on the menu are quite extensive so I'll have to come back & try more. My order didn't take long. The moment of truth... The Cabeza here is good, really good. I'd rate it 4.25 out of 5 & say it's comparable to the Cabeza I've had at Tacos Mi Rancho, the taco truck parked near Lake Merritt. This alone, for me, is worth coming back for. The Pastor was a letdown. Other Yelp reviews praise the Pastor here, but I don't see it (or more precisely, taste it). The Pastor seemed a little dry, a little overcooked, & under-seasoned. I'd rate that 3 out of 5. Other than the tacos, I also had a Horchata & took a Carnitas Torta to go. The Horchata was exceptional, hugely flavorful & creamier than any other Horchata I can remember (5 out of 5). The Carnitas Torta was just OK (3.5 out of 5). I'd rather have the same Torta from Las Montañas in San Pablo. Averaging it all out (a little over 3.9 out of 5), I'll give Tacos La Raza 4 stars. They serve my favorite taco & they do it well. They also have a killer Horchata. It's not the top of the mountain. But it's also only a couple miles from home rather than the 500+ miles to Tacos El Gordo. read more

Tried these tacos today for the first time, after hearing a lot about it and I wasn't mislead. The tacos are pretty good and the salsa was GREAT super savory. I tried one al pastor which was delicious and one asada which I felt could use a little more taste but their salsa saves it. The wait time for 2 taco was a bit rediculious, almost 10 mins. And it wasn't even busy. But all and all the tacos were very good. read more

I'm not a huge fan of burritos, but when i tried it at this place I couldn't have enough of it. My boyfriend and I come here often, with every meal they include something extra. For example with our super burritos we get grilled baby onions and fresh radish that happens to go perfectly well with the burritos and your choice of red/green salsa on the side. They offer variety of different meat choices as well as drinks. They are also open late nights, I definitely recommend this place. read more

I really like the food here but they're always messing up my order I usually always check my food before I leave and ask them to fix whatever the problem is and they do but man it's annoying. This last time I went my son was fussy so I grabbed my food and left without checking it. I had to come home and add my sour cream and cheese that I paid extra money for and they forgot to add . Also no limones cebollitas nothing and I love all that stuff they usually put it but I'm not sure what's going on. Again the food is pretty bomb but I might just start taking a longer drive to el trompudo in el sob that place is super good! read more

I have been eating here for years. The food was always good. However, instead of the generous sized burrito I usually get I now get pinners. Additionally, $14 for a burrito is just a bridge too far. There is no way to justify this outrageous price when your food cost is around 15%. The trend with restaurants lately is to gouge their remaining customers for a post Covid bad couple of years. I'm out. read more

This place sits in the parking lot of the La Raza Market located on the corner of Mcdonald and 22nd. Love the Carne Asada tacos or super burrito. Best crispy tripas tacos in town.

Amazing burritos! They have a decent variety of Mexican food, but I can't get past how amazing the burritos are. Everything is placed perfectly inside a soft tortilla so you never get a mouth full of just rice. There is a bit of a problem with the parking as it is attached to La Raza market in a busy area of Richmond, but it's usually empty in the evening. If you go in the day, you can also grab some bootleg movies if you're into that. read more

The menu offers a good variety of Mexican inspired dishes, from tacos and birria ramen and burritos. Everything we tried had great flavor and was clearly made fresh. The sauces, seasoning and overall balance of the dishes were definitely the highlight of the meal. We ordered quite a few items including quesabirria, shrimp tacos, a burrito and birria ramen. The shrimp tacos were especially flavorful, topped with a creamy sauce that paired really well with the shrimp. The quesabirria tacos also had that nice crispy texture with the rich birria flavor that people look for. The restaurant itself is clean, organized and well set up, with outdoor seating available which is nice on a sunny day. It has a relaxed vibe where you can sit down with friends and enjoy your food without feeling rushed. The only thing I noticed across several of the dishes was that the portions of meat felt a little light compared to the tortilla or toppings. The flavor is absolutely there, but a slightly more generous portion of meat would make these dishes even better. Overall, solid spot with great flavor and a fun menu.

I told one of the male staff members there was plastic in his dish, and he just said, "Sorry, it was probably the plastic from the bread's packaging," and then walked away. A few minutes later, I saw the waitress and pulled her aside to discreetly tell her there was plastic in my brother's meal. She told me she wanted to see it ( kind of with a tone of 'I don't believe you'), and I brought her over to the dish to show her. She didn't say anything, so I said we would happily pay for the other dishes, but could my brother's meal be comped for the choking hazard? The waitress turned and went to the kitchen, to, I guess, talk to someone about it. The waitress came back out, took the dish away, probably to show whoever was in the kitchen. A while later, she came back out with the check, but did not bother to explain to us what the plan was from there. We did see a 50% markdown on my brother's dish. It was really awkward because the waitress did not have a very pleasant or inviting attitude; she stood there glaring as we reviewed the bill and figured out the payment method. There was a serious lack of communication (not due to a language barrier; we are a Spanish-speaking family) and an unnecessary, blasé and mean demeanor from the waitress on Mother's Day.

I did pick up on a slight pineapple flavor but it wasn't redeeming. I was disappointed by the texture and flavor. I was hoping for a trompo slow cooked, thin sliced, with hints of smoke and char type pastor. The staff are attentive with questions and were friendly. Parking in the back was helpful.
