There is a new location! The menu is very similar (perhaps even the same, I don't have a head to head to compare) and the food just as good. The restaurant is much smaller but very clean, bright, and with excellent service. Seriously, we are so jazzed we can now go to our favorite place much closer to home. Our faves include the enchiladas suizas and rojas, the seafood chimichangas, and the guacamole. I also like to get a side of the grilled jalapeños to slice into my meal. Yum!! Tonight we were lucky enough to dine at the grand opening. We both got enchiladas (plus jalapeños for me!) and were delighted to experience the familiar flavors we know and love. In addition my husband had to sample a margarita, and he was not disappointed. Get here and get your fill!

Who ever heard of a Mexican restaurant that didn't have hot sauce bottles on the table? Beware, this place charges a dollar if you ask for hot sauce, another dollar if you ask for refill of tortilla chips, and another dollar charge for every take-out ltem. So just can't recommend eating were they have such disregard for customer.

If you're in the mood for Mexican food that hits different than what you're used to, you'll find it here. They put their own unique flair on everything from the salsas to the drinks to the burritos. My all time fave is the mission burrito, packed with healthy ingredients but loaded with flavor and sauces. It's delicious! It's a fun atmosphere and all the servers we've had have been super nice and helpful. They also offer a convenient lane outside for takeout so you don't even need to leave your car.

I stopped in on "Free Cookie Wednesday" (love that, btw) and tried their Al pastor tacos and their signature taco. Both were amazing! Their tacos are so flavorful, and the salsas are as well!

I opened up Yelp and found this little taqueria in the cute downtown of Belvedere so we decided to stop here. The inside definitely makes you feel like you're at a family owned restaurant. It reminds me of all of the pizzerias I went to as a kid in New York. The staff are all incredibly friend and funny and were cracking jokes the whole time to our table. They offer a wide selection of Mexican specialties from some of the more common ones to some of the harder to find ones. Lately, I've been on a Gordita kick so I ordered the Gordita dinner. The rice and beans were so good, and the fresh tortillas, along with the beautiful meat inside were all perfect. I wasn't expecting to have such incredible Mexican in this part of the US, but I need to reassess my biased because this was fantastic. Highly recommend!
