    The super burrito is excellent, certainly one of the best in Mountain View. This is my go-to burrito shop for carnitas burritos.

    Good prices. 2-3 tacos is a solid meal and tastes great. Horchata is good, tastes eggnoggy. Skip nachos but definitely grab chips and salsa.

    The veggie quesadilla with added carne asada is bomb! I loved the camarones a la diabla, be careful bc they are incredibly spicy! All tacos are good. Super burrito is really good. Great discovery.

    The enchilada plates are perfectly portioned and didn't induce a food coma after eating them. Pro tip: get the grilled jalapeños as a side!

    Breakfast burrito, coffee, fresh-squeezed orange juice: best breakfast in downtown Mountain View.

    Delicious carne asada tacos on corn tortillas. The small restaurant is exceptionally loud 11:30 to 1PM. Go later!

    My favorite weekend lunch spot. The menu is expansive, and every single item is really good. Kids friendly.

    Try out the super burrito, but as for roasted chilis in the burrito. For extra fun, snag a side of habanero salsa. Delicious!

    for breakfast, maybe choose the “mexican” breakfast burrito over the “regular” breakfast burrito

    If you're even remotely near here, stop and have a burrito... their Super Burrito is one of the best in the Bay Area.

    I wasn't a fan of this place . Food has to be sitting on a warmer in back bc we got our food in 2 minutes and there was 4 of us and it didn't taste fresh.

    Don't get their carne asada. Super dry! They try to over compensate by adding too much sauce. Friendly service, though.
