La Esquina: Reviews & Ratings
Best burrito in South Bay - no one comes close. This will become a monthly spot to hit when I travel to the Bay.
Awesome and friendly staff and variety in the menu. We tried the birria tacos which were so well marinated and tender - just wish it came with the yummy sauce to dip but I guess our cholesterol appreciated the cleaner version. Cheese enchilada was surprisingly and delightfully garlicky. The carne asada burrito had a great toasted tortilla.
Absolutely the best fish and shrimp taco I've ever had. The hibiscus drink is also really yummy. You won't be disappointed I highly recommend it.
Love the food and vibes from the staff. This is once in a lifetime. The food is amazing and the vibes are great. I work down the street from Burton Design & Construction and this is the spot to unwind and have a great meal. Thank you
This small taqueria has some inside and outside dining. It was a nice surprise that they offered table service vs ordering at the counter. Our waitress was so helpful, as she offered menu suggestions, told me which meals were too spicy for me and then offered a dish created just for me ! Wow, gotta love that. The meal was tasty and nicely presented. My Chicken Ranchera was delicious and I had to stop myself from eating all of it, as it was a large portion. Once again I was surprised by the servers as they came to check on us and ask if we needed anything. This little place offered more service than some of the nicer restaurants in the area. For a taqueria, this place certainly exceeds expectations.
