    Tried their chicken burrito and found it to be pretty decent, nothing really extraordinary. Will probably try their tacos next time.

    True authentic Mexican food. I've ordered for pick up several times here & food is always delicious! My last visit I decided to eat inside. I ordered asada & shrimp fajitas. Everything was well prepared and seasoned & omg the HANDMADE tortillas! So yummy. Highly recommend this place!! Comida Mexicana auténtica. He pedido ordenes para llevar varias veces y la comida siempre es deliciosa! En mi última visita decidí comer adentro. Pedí fajitas de asada y camaron. Todo estaba bien preparado y sazonado y Dios mío, las tortillas HECHAS A MANO! Muy delicioso. Recomiendo este lugar!

    I have driven past this spot many times and have yet to stop in! That is until I was doing the Concord Taco Trail and this is one of the spots on the map! I am glad that I was able to finally discover this amazing little spot! Since I was hitting many spots on the list the day I stopped by I went for a single taco. Risky I know! Everything was riding on this singular taco! I ordered a street style carne asada taco. It came on 2 corn tortillas and with carne asada, cilantro, onion, salsa and a lime on the side. Just how a street style taco should! I drizzled the lime over the taco and dove in! WOWZERS this taco was so tasty! The steak was cut up into nice small pieces. It was super flavorful and nice and tender! No chewy pieces at all! The salsa had some great flavor too! A little bit of a kick but nothing too spicy that it overpowered the steak.

    Shrimp and fish tacos

    The restaurant was clean upon entering.. I ordered a fish taco [it came out perfectly grilled, full of flavor, and flaky] and a shrimp taco [ meaty shrimp with great flavor] char on the tortillas.. our chips were warm and well seasoned, not too salty.. employees were very friendly..Can't wait to go back to try other dishes

    Regular burrito with steak, side of medium salsa

    I'm updating my review because I have continued coming to this restaurant and I continue to be impressed. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The food is always made super fresh. And I've been ordering the carne asada plate lately, and they just give you SO much meat! It's always cut very thinly and tastes great. We have always eaten in the restaurant in the last but here is a photo of the order when we took it to go. Everything was still kept to the same level of quality and still an abundance of rice and meat. It was a great take out as well as eat in. Highly highly recommend!

    This steak burrito was sooo good.

    The Dude and I came to El Aguila Mexican Cuisine on 5/24/26 and this ended up being such a good…read morelunch spot. I ordered the zucchini burrito and it was really good. The zucchini was cooked perfectly and not overcooked or soggy at all, which made the whole burrito taste fresh and flavorful. We also got the appetizer with the chips, zucchini, arugula, and cheese and that ended up being one of my favorite dishes. Everything paired together really well and had a lot of flavor without feeling too heavy. I also tried the mango margarita with tajín on the rim and really liked it because it wasn't overly sweet. Super refreshing and balanced. The Dude ordered the chicken enchiladas with verde sauce and really enjoyed those as well. Customer service was also really good. They checked on us periodically throughout the meal and everyone was friendly and attentive without hovering. Overall the restaurant felt clean, relaxed, and comfortable. Definitely a spot we would come back to again. Especially a lot of vegetarian options ! Vegetarian approved!!!

    Located in the small shopping area off Contra Costa, right across from Pizza My Way, you will find…read moreEl Aguila Mexican Cuisine. First off, the place is pretty big. There's a ton of seating inside, and everything is very spacious. Though, I do have to say it always feels incredibly empty for some reason and there's never anybody actually inside outside of a few tables, but they do have tons of takeout so perhaps that's the tradeoff. However, don't let the lack of eating patrons inside the place put you off. This taqueria offers a good variety of different options as any taqueria would offer, and many of the options have pictures and stuff with it. The service here is, kind of hit or miss. The people in the front usually aren't overly friendly, and will sometimes feel like they're just there until the clock turns work over. Sometimes they're bordering on rude as they just kind of give you an indifferent stare as you're ordering, or will just feel as if they're half listening and not even looking up. The service was a bit better when I dined in, so perhaps maybe it's just the takeout, although it's usually the same person for both. Price wise, it's certainly not going to be cheap. If you want the best bang for your buck around here, El Aguila probably won't be it as there's a plethora of taquerias in this area. Food quality wise, it's pretty good overall. There are some tasty dishes here that will certainly warrant the little bit of extra cost here compared to other places. Things that I have tried here are the burritos and the torta. The burritos here are yummy as they they will have ingredients inside the burrito that is slightly different than your cookie cutter burrito at any other place. It really does help adds layers of flavor to it that other places do not offer. However, the best part of it is indeed the fact they grill the outside of the burrito to get that nice flakiness that wrap, and makes it a oh so rewarding experience. Meat portions was okay, but wish it had more especially for the cost. The torta I got was pretty good, as the ingredients inside were pretty typical so nothing really stood out. The break was toasted well, but I do wish it was a bit softer as it may have been to toasted. Should be toasted outside and soft inside, but this one just felt toasted all over. The meat portion also suffers from the same issue as the burrito as that it's not as generous as it could be. However, the flavors and taste were fine. It's certainly a nice place for those who want a bit of a different style of their Mexican cuisine. They have some flavors here that will be atypical of most of the cookie cutter taquerias around. While they are a bit expensive comparatively, the portions are actually decent (minus the meats). You can certainly be filled with just a single burrito. Worth a visit.

    A Great Weekend Lunch with Flavorful Dishes and Amazing Warm Dips…read more We had lunch here on a weekend and found plenty of tables available both inside and outside. Don't let the underwhelming plaza and ambiance fool you--the staff are great, and the food itself is incredibly flavorful and tasty. As soon as you are seated, they immediately serve you warm tortilla chips alongside salsa and a warm, cheesy bean dip that is absolutely amazing. The entrees completely delivered on flavor: * Wet Super Burrito: I got this with steak, and it was delicious. It comes loaded with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole. My only minor critique is that the guacamole was just okay, and hopefully they can improve that flavor in the future. * Ground Beef Enchilada: My son got this, served with rice and beans. It came out perfectly warm, very flavorful, and he absolutely loved it. * Chicken and Shrimp Fajitas: My wife ordered these, and they were served on a fantastic, sizzling skillet. To drink, we ordered a pitcher of frozen margaritas, which was nice and refreshing. We also finished the meal with the flan for dessert, which was not bad at all. Our only real complaint was a situational one regarding the outdoor seating. The wind was causing the outdoor drapes to repeatedly hit the metal frame, creating a loud, disturbing noise throughout our meal. Aside from that background noise, it was a wonderful lunch. If you are looking for excellent flavor and great service, this place is well worth the visit!

    Feb 2 2025 3.5 stars…read more Lately our go to Mexican eats is Cinco De Mayo in Martinez. Christians-smh. It is Sunday and Cinco is closed. The server and service here at Isla was perfect. I pointed out to he waiter that he had a crumb on his chin and he wiped and chuckled like a nice champ. The music is pleasant but a bit louder than needed so I brought out the earplugs. The entire indoor setup is nice. Our food is arriving after what seems like a long wait meaning either the food is being served fresh, hot and tasty, or we are in for a mediocre experience. Our two plates arrived. Chilli relleno and Grilled chicken enchilada. I'm not a fan of the aesthetics of the smallish squair white plates. Reminds me of trying to look upscale. We own plates like these and that didn't work. Wife's enchilada plate was covered with three hot and very tasty chicken filled food bombs plus sides. The chili plate looked a little weak (too much plate showing) but that was the tastiest chilli relleno ever in 40 years of me enjoying these. Served hot with cheese filled up to the ying yang, an extra spiciness I have never had before that I loved and me wishing I had a spoon to scrape up the end of the sauce. Unfortunately the smallish rice and bean servings on both plates were luke warm and tasted so so. . I had similar hotter to those with tv dinners back in the day. The two plates and a coke at $43 has me scratching my chin on whether we will make that drive again. That is unless it is Sunday. Then possibly. .

After giving it some thought, I decided to return and explore what it was about Isla that everyone raved over. This time around, I ordered the fish tacos, and I was hooked! Isla's fish tacos are phenomenal--easily the best in the area and a must-have every single time. I usually go for the tilapia, though I've sampled the red snapper as well. They come out super crispy on the outside yet remain incredibly moist inside, with the salsa and toppings melding together perfectly. I also visited their new location today and was pleasantly surprised by the ample parking and comfortable seating. The space is beautiful, making it even more enjoyable to stop by for those irresistible fish tacos. Here's a quick rundown of my ratings: Fish (all varieties): 8.7/10 Birria: 7/10 (good, but not their standout item) Carne Asada Super Burrito: 5.8/10 When it comes to satisfying my fish taco cravings, Isla remains the only choice.

The parking lot in front is small. There was one open spot so we grabbed it. I think there may be more parking out back but I don't know for sure. No street parking on Monument so if you strike out in the front lot, check in the back. We walked in and it was fairly crowded at 6:20 n a Saturday night. They seated us right away but it was the last open table - and it wasn't a great table, right by the front door and everyone waiting for take out or a table! But we were happy to be seated. They brought chips and 4 bottles of salsa in squeeze bottles. They were all delicious but one was super spicy so be on the lookout for that! They took our order, brought us water and our beers. All were very good. Then the food came! My 2 favorites were: the taco pork belly (pork belly, cilantro, guacamole and red onion) and the norteno taco (Anaheim pepper, cheese, carne asada, cabbage and onion). $7.25 each. These were out of this world good so be sure to order them. My birria burrito $15.75 was huge and delicious. I brought most of it home. We saw some families and couples here. Great table service.
