    First time here and the food was okay, but the service was terrible. The cashier was rude and got upset when I asked to switch salsa.
    Raymundo E.

    I came here for the first time and ordered three tacos (asada, chorizo, and suadero). The food was okay, but the service was terrible. The cashier was rude, more focused on gossiping than helping, and got upset when I asked to switch red salsa for green. As a first-time customer, I expected better.

    two pastors, one cabeza and suadero

    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.

    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.

    Best tacos in Richmond. If you like spicy food they make the tacos perfect for you. Overall the food is just delicious and the service is always great! A gem fr

    3 tacos de alpastor (with the chile tatemado and salsa roja I mentioned) my green grilled onions didn't make it on the picture.

    A hole in the wall! Their alpastor is . Their salsa roja and grilled cebollitas con Chile tatemado on the side are a bonus. I came across this place from a cashier at a taqueria in San Francisco. Lol to say the least. Definitely a local spot for me.

    Lindsey S.

    This place is hella good. Great customer service. 2.50 a taco for good meat. All around Thats great. I got one taco de al pastor and one taco de asada. I'd say the asada is better. The sauce they put on it is really good and not too spicy for a gringa like me.

    Tacos de pastor con todo y queso

    Pastor tacos NEVER miss for me! This is my go to taco place hands down. Can't say the same for the asada burrito I had once. I only come here for the tacos.

    no cream so dry

    Food is usually good here. However, the last 2-3 times I've visited our orders have came out incorrectly. Asked for 2 tacos de lengua PLAIN and received something differently. Asked for a burrito de carne Asada con crema received a dry ass burrito.

    Best taco stand I've been to since moving here. They're consistent, asada is tasty, and green hot sauce is good.

IN THE CHIPS: Kicking things off, the Chips and Salsa are now $3.85 for an order, but they were worth the money - light and airy, and the salsa just barely had a hint of heat to it. Just perfect. (5/5) THE BEANS.. Perusing the menu, whatever plate you order, you can specify the kind of beans you want (black beans, pinto beans, refried beans). I chose the black beans, but specified "no cheese" on them in a semi-futile attempt to stay on the healthy side. =) SEAFOOD TACOS I decided on the Seafood Taco Platter, where you get one shrimp taco and a fish taco along with a big side of beans and lots of rice. Each taco comes with a double layer of corn tortillas with grilled shrimp, or fish topped by shredded cabbage drizzled with a lime aioli. Instead of deep fried, the shrimp and fish on each taco were grilled to perfection, instead of deep fried. The fish filet was diced and stir-fried with a wonderful aroma. Instead of making a mess, I decided just to eat my taco by slicing and dicing it from the plate. Super good! (5/5) One of my dining partners had the mole here a year ago and loved it, so now that he was back in town, he made this place a prime objective for his visit again to the Bay! Yeah.. I'd tend to agree.. Worth coming back.

The staff is always incredibly friendly, the restaurant is clean with plenty of seating, and the food is consistently amazing. The tortillas are made in house, the salsas are the perfect finishing touch, and I genuinely haven't had a single thing on the menu that I didn't enjoy. The tamales are AMAZING. The fish tacos are perfect. And the beans? Chef's kiss. Honestly, even the sides deserve their own review. You can taste the time, care, and effort that goes into making everything from scratch, and the prices absolutely reflect the quality while still feeling very fair. This has become one of those places you don't just try once. You go back often. And we definitely do!

The meats on the tacos were tender and well seasoned. My favorite were the carnitas for their slight crisp. The salsas are spicy but have good flavor. I also love that they come with pickled veggies and radishes! Tamales have a good masa to filling ratio and aren't dry. I was surprised when I ordered the rajas con queso (green pepper with cheese) tamal and it had some red sauce inside. The chilaquiles were a solid breakfast choice too. I wish there was more service/interaction with the client. You pick up your food at the food counter and after you're done you buss your own plates. Parking is limited in their parking lot but there's plenty of street parking around the corner.
