"I visited this restaurant today based on a recommendation and after reading the reviews. As someone who is familiar with Mexican cuisine and cooking, I have to say that this was the worst Mexican food I have ever had in the Bay Area. My group of six all agreed on this. To be honest, it tasted like leftover food from the night before. There were flies buzzing around the kitchen and tables. I would not recommend wasting your money at this place as our experience was terrible."

The food here is really good and has a similar style to San Diego. The flavors and spices are authentic and reminiscent of a taqueria. The prices are reasonable and they also have food trucks in the area, so I would recommend giving them a try.
