I come once a month for the most delicious pozole on God's earth. The service is swift, the people are kind, and the pozole is ridiculous.

The cashier is always accommodating whenever I want to switch my order or try something new. They give me a sample before I purchase. I called and made a phone order and my food was made by the time I made it to the restaurant. The restaurant is small with not a lot of seating so I mostly order to go.

This is our neighborhood Mexican restaurant and we order from here often. Their plates are packed full and we usually end up with leftovers. The carnitas plate with refried beans is a favorite, as well as their enchiladas. We tried the carne asada recently and it was super tender and flavorful too. It's priced higher than other Mexican options around town, especially considering it's only take out, but we love supporting local businesses. Plus they're always so nice.

Love this place. The food is fantastic, love their chicken options. They gave us two free samples of the soup while we were waiting and the chicken enchilada soup was so good that we had to add one to our order!

One of my new favorite spots. So far, everything I've tried has been amazing! Personal recommendation... the chicken enchilada soup. Made from tomatillos and chicken, it's hearty, but not too chunky. Except for the chicken, which they give you a pretty decent amount of. The pupusas are also very tasty. They come with a side of slaw and tomato sauce, that's a delicious addition.

Service - 4/5 Food - 5/5 Popped in here midday on Saturday and had a good experience. Quick service and good food. Ordered the carnitas torta and would 100% order this again. We also ordered the bean and cheese Pupusa and cheese and pork pupusa. Both were delicious but I preferred the simple bean and cheese one.

Secret gem in alameda for the best Mexican food. The place is really small like 4 tables, it's more a take out spot than a dine in spot, but the food there is insane. Also pro tip their green sauce is amazing get extra. Out of all the Mexican places I've tried, this one just gets everything right, it doesn't hurt that it's around the corner from me. Would recommend to anyone looking for traditional and flavorful Mexican food at no fuss. If ur looking to sit in an instagrammable restaurant this is not it tho.

Just want to express my LOVE of this place again! And love love love the new chicken Al pastor! Soooo good! I'm currently on a keto/low carb diet. My go-to's are the two super tacos with the chicken Al pastor. They load them up! I take them home and scoop them onto my own Keto tortillas and they are absolutely fabulous!!! Also the chicken tortilla soup is the best I have ever had! Great for keto diet (as long as you don't put the tortilla strips in it, and trust me it doesn't need it.). Super hardy with big chunks of chicken and vegetables. Big fan! And as always the staff is amazing and super friendly. They are the best in alameda!

El Caballo Wraps is a small hole in the wall Taqueria on Lincoln Ave in Alameda. The menu is quite extensive though offering every type of burrito imaginable, tacos including snapper fish tacos, fajitas, pupusas, and the list goes on. They were kind enough to let us sample their chicken tortilla soup which was fresh and homemade. While sampling the soup we order one of their special burritos called Super Seafood Burrito. Super Seafood Burrito: at first I was taken back by the total which was $19.88 with tax included. But in defense, burritos on this side of the bay for whatever reason have inflated to that price. I wish someone would tell my employer, I shouldn't have to work so many hours just to buy burritos. But I digress... The burrito was good tasting and every bite had shrimp in it. That makes it a winner in my book. No skimping and good SABOR. El Caballo is definitely a spot to check out for solid Mexican food in Alameda.
