He asked if I wanted the grande or supreme. I said no. He asked if I wanted everything in it. Sure! Waited about the usual time for one of those to be prepared. Then about 10 people showed up. Handed money to the guy and got food. Apparently you can call an order in. After half of them or so got their food the lady cooking asked if I wanted jalapeño and lime I said yes. Ok so it's done now I'm thinking. The last of the others got their food then I got mine. It was a little dark, the cheese and meat had no flavor at all except for two pieces had one tiny piece of onion on them. Somehow my $3.50 quesadilla cost me $5.00. I won't need to try this one again.

Vegan Mexican food in Oakdale!…read more Cocina Michoacana in Oakdale is not only a restaurant I repeatedly visit but also a spot I regularly recommend. In 2018 they added a dedicated "Vegan & Vegetarian Menu" alongside their traditional menu. Regardless of how many times I come back, I have to order the taquitos and I cannot stress enough that you HAVE to order the vegan bean dip appetizer. Whether you go standard or skillet style, both are delicious, and you won't miss a thing! Visit my blog at Yourneighborhoodvegan.com and on social media @yourneighborhoodvegan for more! Cocina Michoacana is also home to the "Mega Margarita," a 32-ounce frozen margarita available in several flavors. They often run happy hours and drink specials, making it a great place to stop for after-work drinks and shareable apps. They also have a dog-friendly patio that is shaded and perfect for group dining.

Hello my husband and I have been coming here for about six years and love there food. I had lost my mom in Sept, so we decided because we love their food that we would ask them to cater her celebration of life. We ordered 50 enchiladas, rice and beans and salsa not only was the food fantastic well packed and ready to travel, but the cost was so affordable and not only did we receive the enchiladas, but she included chips, salad and sour cream for sides. Our guests that came to my Moms memorial asked where we got the food, and they just raved about the flavor and how authentic it was. we can't thank the owner for going over and beyond to help make my Mom's celebration wonderful. If you need someone to make food for your special event, I would highly Taqueria Castillo. read more

The ONLY reason I am giving this review 5 stars is because of service i was provided by Esmeralda. One of the best servers I've had, she continuously made sure we had everything we needed and provided anything we asked her for with a smile and positive attitude. Although my service from her was outstanding, a negative I experienced was other servers glaring and never accompanying our needs. The only reason I'd ever come back is if I got the same experience I received with Esmeralda as my server. read more

Ambiance: This restaurant is quite large and can accommodate a lot of guests. Therefore you can easily walk in and get a table without reservations. Food: I have been here about 15 times now and neither myself or my family have had anything bad. Our favorites are the pollo a la crema, pollo en crema verde, steak a la Diabla, and tampicuena. We also appreciate that they give tortilla chips with salsa to start. I will say that sometimes the kitchen can be slow at times. This last occasion it took 30 minutes after ordering to receive our food and they weren't that busy that night. Service: the servers are very friendly and attentive.

What I got instead was what I can only describe as lightly warmed, paper-thin sadness. The meat was dry, completely unseasoned, and so thin I'm pretty sure it qualified as deli meat. I've had better flavor from airport food... and that's saying something. No sizzle, no aroma, no personality. Just a plate that looked like it gave up halfway through cooking. Service? Let's just say it matched the food--uninspired and forgettable. The only positive is that this meal actually helped my diet because after a few bites I had zero desire to keep eating. So technically... thanks for that? Would I come back? Only if I needed a reminder of what fajitas are not supposed to be. 0/10 for flavor 10/10 for reinforcing my self-control
