El Burrito Gordo, Oakland, California, Mexican Restaurant Details

Food:

My experience here wasn't the best. The service and the staff were friendly however, the food wasn't so pleasant. Received a taco salad without lettuce and replaced with chips (Nachos anyone?). The meat wasn't seasoned at all and the chips were sort of hard. I think I'm going to give them another try before I write them off. Me being Latin American, I know this wasn't the best that everyone has told me it was.

Food:

I ate here for lunch a bit after 1pm, and the place was thankfully not crowded. Tried their carne asada burrito, which was made amazingly fast and tasted good. I wasn't asked what type of beans I wanted, so I assume they just use refried, which was okay (I prefer pinto). Free warm chips and different varieties of salsa are a plus. I'll come back here whenever I need a burrito fix.

Food:

Friendly faces, delicious food, homemade salsa bar...what is not to like? :)

Food:

I love this place. When there's not a line, I barely have time to pick out salsa for my chips before my burrito is ready. Their chicken and pork tend to be more stewed type than grilled. First thing I had was the enchiladas, also good. Check it out.
