3.5 stars The local vibe was heavily present. As a first timer, it was nice to see the folks behind the counter know peoples orders without them ordering... we came end of day and didn't get any of the meats we wanted. No more chicharron or chile verde. Another usual customer was surprised to hear chile verde sold out and muttered "but that one never sells out..." Good enough deal to get the burrito and can soda for $14. Burrito itself was good enough. Not something i would crave for though. The tortilla was my favorite part. I wish they tightened the burrito roll. They don't give a lot of meat. The steak one was basically falling apart while eating it. The Carnitas was not chopped up, just few big dry chunks to work on... no slurpability to my burrito which knocks off a star... the salsa was definitely medium to hot heat level spice. I for sure needed the coke to help me finish my burrito without suffering from the heat too much. I will definitely want to try coming again for the chicharron. Hopefully it will be a better experience considering we went closer to the closing time. It's nice that their front is open for folks to just enjoy the space without cars, so that ups the appeal a bit more. read more

Mi Burrito in downtown Alameda serves up delicious and authentic Mexican food, primarily burritos. The restaurant was formerly known as Ramiro & Sons Taqueria, where the talented cooks and staff decided to purchase it when the owners retired. The staff is incredibly friendly and eager to assist you with your order. They were the heart and soul of the taqueria, so it's no surprise that it now operates as Mi Burrito, with the staff now owning the place. As a result, they have a long line out the door. Locals flock to Mi Burrito for their authentic Mexican cuisine. The food is prepared right in front of you at the counter, and it's a delightful experience to watch the deliciousness being made. While the restaurant has limited seating inside, there are plenty of outdoor seating options at the community tables. read more

Craving for nachos, ended up here. Easy ordering with the cook then then you pay the cashier. Had the chicken nachos. More chicken than chips, it would've been better if the chicken was actually seasoned instead of just plain shredded chicken. I like my nachos soggy so yes it definitely was soggy but it not enough chips. Prices are very affordable. Will come back to try the burritos next. read more

I had a super quesadilla with chile verde. It was tasty! The service was fast though a little inefficient - I repeated my order three times, twice to the cook & once to the cashier. No biggie. The restaurant was clean and had lots of sunlight. And it's right around the corner from Tucker's Ice Cream! If you want to have a nice siesta, eat at both & enjoy your nap! ;) read more

I have been going to this taqueria since the mid 90's, as a student of Alameda High School. Never have I felt so disrespected and as disappointed as today, being addressed as a "Negra", by the owner! The tall older man making the food.( Negra meaning black girl) A business should never address a customer by their ethnicity, I felt highly disrespected. That's like me saying, "Hey white girl" to and a respectable Caucasian adult woman, who has patronized my business for decades. That just showed me, they didn't deserve my money. Plus I haven't been a girl for over 30 years. Then he laughed afterwards like it was a joke. He was speaking in half Spanish and half English the entire time, knowing that I don't speak Spanish, then ended with Negra, and laughed a sinister laugh. I will never spend my money there again, and advise that any person of color, do the same. Written by the account holder's wife read more

Very good burritos in a foody part of town. Decor is 1980s taqueria which gives hope. They make it right in front of you. I got the supreme burrito carnitas with everything. A nice large portion. Not quite two meals worth but certainly 1 1/2. Lots of avocado and sour cream made it delicious and the carnitas was juicy and tasty. I was salivating by the time the owner was chopping it all up. Not too much indoor seating but plenty outdoors if the weather is nice. Not giving it five stars which is my "I'll drive across town to eat at a place it's that good" but it's certainly a four star "if I'm in the area and have a hankering, no hesitation" score. read more

Food on point everytime for the past 25 years I've been going. Service is always the best! Ambiance is clean, but never eat there because it's always to go! read more

Huge shout out to Mi Burrito for an epic catered build your own taco spread. Super affordable, delicious, and definitely twice the food we expected... Every one of our guests was raving about the food and we have eaten tacos for days! Birthday boy was so happy! Highly recommend to dine in or have them cater your next event. read more

When I lived in Alameda back in the '90's, this was my go to taqueria. Stopped in today for a super taco and it's still the best! Super clean, friendly staff and the best food. In addition, the street out front is now blocked off and there are tables to eat outside. Love it! read more

Taqueria Mi Burrito - Street blocked off with outdoor seating. - Tacos Near Me - Alameda, California

Best burrito in town and the best price. Worth the search for a parking spot. Picnic tables right outside the door or eat inside the shop.

Best taqueria on Alameda!! I got a carnitas super burrito and with tax it was only $13.50. It was also really big!! You'd have to be pretty hungry to be able to finish it. Loved that the proportion of everything was even throughout and that they grilled the outside of the burrito. The super comes with fresh guacamole, sour cream, salsa verde, pico de gallo, pinto beans, rice, and cheese. Also everyone should works here is really nice! read more

WOW! Best beef burrito I have had in awhile! In the last month or so, I've been trying mexican food trucks in the Fruitvale area, and none of them can match this Beef Regular Burrito from "Taqueria Mi Burrito" in Alameda. It was Wednesday, just before 12 noon, and I just happen to be walking by and notice "Taqueria Mi Burrito" on Alameda Ave. I have heard about this place, and it's about time I try it. So I went in, looked over the menu, and ordered a Regular Beef Burrito w/ Green Sauce. BTW, you need to upgrade your menu board to handle prices above $9.99. A Reg Burrito is $10.50. not $1.05. Someday, someone will get confused and make a big deal out of it. So I take my beef burrito home. I weigh it, measure it, and slice it open. It's pretty much the same in weight (20-oz) and length (8-9 inches) as other places. What's different is the filling.....lots of beef. Beef, rice, beans and salsa. Good, tasty, and easy to eat. A touch of heat to grab your attention. All those 5-star Yelp reviews are legit! This is great food, prepared by a great restaurant! The restaurant has a spacious interior, with some small tables. There's an outdoor dining area in the street, and that's why Alameda Ave is blocked off. There's a public parking lot right next door, and meter spots on the street. Located on Alameda Ave between Park St & Oak St. Welcome to The City of Alameda, and Support Local Business! read more

Friendly owner, good portions and tasty, cute decorations. Got the super burrito with chicken. Saw they even have a child size burrito for $8.50. Salsa is a bit spicy! Would come back again read more

Looking for a new place for burritos in Alameda, and Mi Burrito did not disappoint! Although I got a quesadilla instead of a burrito, the food was amazing! I even loved that the majority of the clientele was Spanish-speaking which tells me this is the place for the best quality, fastest available food. We will be back weekly! read more

I come to this place every time that me and my boyfriend come and see a movie and this is honestly a good restaurant. The food is good and great service! read more

Very racist & rude cashier (a lady). Ignored us. Seemed upset while helping us yet very chipper while helping others. Didn't put our food in a bag or offer us FREE chips as she did every other NON-BLACK customer. The steak burrito was decent. The chicken on the chicken nachos were unseasoned and threw together. Spent $30 on a super burrito, super nachos and a coke. Very uncomfortable experience. read more

Taqueria Mi Burrito - Super taco, guacamole, beans and chips. Delicious! - Tacos Near Me - Alameda, California

This is a quaint place that is not only spotless, but easy to follow menu! Very much like a cafe! The staff is extremely polite and all of them are helpful and happy! The cook came up and took my order then went to the back and began to make my nachos! The person at the register was busy and still smiling! The tables were small and great for eating and shareables, which the nachos we shared suited just fine! I strongly recommend for a quick bite that will fill you up! Lots of street parking and a lot of side parking lots. Very clean restroom. read more

Taqueria Mi Burrito - Nachos - Tacos Near Me - Alameda, California

Date: 4/6/2023 Time: 7:15 PM 54° Cloudy Supposedly today is Happy Burrito Day. Since my husband and I are in the 'hood, we decided to stop in for my burrito fix. It has been ages since I have come in here for a burrito, when it was called Taqueria Ramiro & Sons. Because this burrito shop showed up on my Facebook news feed page, and seeing the four star reviews, okay, I had to check out their menu board and see their selection. Based on my observation, the seating capacity indoor is 12 people. However, there is outdoor dining in front of the business. Street parking is slim or none. No worries, as there is a public parking lot next door. Specialties: burritos, tacos, nachos, quesadillas, a variety of sides (rice, beans, chips), canned sodas and bottled beverages, paletas for $2.00. Eats: super carne asada burrito with the usual fixings of beef, rice, cheese, pinto beans, tomato salsa, sour cream and guacamole. Cost: $13.29 (tax included). The beef was a tad bland, but the rest of the ingredients made up for blandness along with the small container of salsa verde. (3.5 stars) Service was friendly and quick. I didn't have to wait long. Male employee taking my order worked it like clockwork. LOL. What's lacking? Agua frescas (piña, mango, sandia, cantaloupe, horchata in the large barrels) and tamales. Rating is rounded up to 4 stars. read more

Average in quality- but not the honest deal from La Cumbre or any other. Asked for REGULAR burrito. Old guy asked 'with this and this and this? (reg ingredients). Yes, thanks. Charged not $11.50 but $12.82, before tax, just under a super. Probably the white person discount, si? read more

I am a lifelong customer from when it was Taqueria Ramiro and now Mi Burrito, but I was also a customer when it was Joe's Talk of the Town in Oakland. I've been eating their food for over 40 years. The salsa recipe is the same and I drench my food in it. This is the place I go to when I have had a bad breakup, no lie. I'll have a chicharron burrito or chicharron plate and will start feeling like the bad b*tch that I really am immediately. They don't mess around here. Good portions and fast service. They will often be making five other orders while making yours, so if you think they are getting your order wrong, they are not. Just mind your business and wait for your food. This is a good place to practice your Spanish too. I always order in Spanish and the person taking my order will help me pronounce words right. If that's not community, then I don't know what is. I hope to continue to eat their food for another 40 years. read more

I've been eating here since I was in high school (in my 50's now) and it will forever be our family's fave burrito spot. My children and now grandchildren love the food too. We drive out from Livermore just to pick them up. The carnitas burrito is always my go-to. Ingredients are authentic, fresh and consistently delicious. The service is always friendly and fast. Hoping this spot will be here for many more years! read more

Same delicious burrito that I loved growing up. When they changed their name I was a little worried, but ordered my fave bean and cheese with rice and tomatoes with a little bit of sour cream and hot sauce on the side and it was actually even a little better than the old ones at Ramiro and Sons. Was a little less soggy and the hot sauce was spicier which I loved! My all time fave burritos. We visit whenever we are in town for our burrito fix. read more

Love this place! I've been coming here for over 25years and will continue to come back. The food is delicious and the service is always A+.

I ordered a beef super burrito for takeout. I don't normally get burritos as they make me feel really full and borderline groggy after eating them, but this burrito had a really clean taste to it. Every ingredient complemented each other well, and the proportions were good. Plus, the burrito was really big, so I was able to save the other half for a second meal. Inside, the restaurant is really clean and kind of big too. When I went on a Sunday afternoon, there was no other customers there. The service was pretty standard. I would definitely come to this burrito spot again as I am now a burrito fan thanks to Taqueria Mi Burrito! read more

Pretty good food, not super flavorful. The burrito was HUGE very well made just not a lot of flavor. The cashier was super helpful and they had a few workers that made the food very fast. The place is kinda small but they did have nice seating in the street in front of the restaurant. read more

Wow that honestly might be the best regular bean burrito I've ever had. Nothing fancy- pinto beans, rice, cheese, salsa Fresca and I got hot sauce in mine. Salsa Fresca actually had ripe tomatoes in it. Hot sauce a was a spicy green salsa. It really felt homemade. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked good and like the people cooking really cared. read more

A cold, unheated tortilla wrapping a handful of mediocre ingredients. I regret this meal. There are better burritos a stone's throw away.

This was originally owned by a husband and wife and is now taken over by the workers. These guys are very friendly and the food is consistent. Stop in for a taco or burrito. You will not be disappointed. read more
