Good place for a meal. Table service with casual Mexican food.

Close to San Bruno Station.... Nice place.... Not to expensive but they asked me for a big tip

Most terrible service and food you’ll have around the bay. Very slow, very rude, and meat is dri, burritos have a funny taste, don’t even get me started on the chimichangas. The only good thing about the place is the hours and it’s location. NOT WORTH IT unless it’s last resort and you have time to waste

This is where people eat out late at night when artichoke Joe’s closes their bar and restaurant at 2am.When San Bruno decides to have a traditional power outage. (Araujos’s uses a back up generator to continue operating. . .)While the Emergency Team of PG&E’s Top Elites are rushing out… busting out safety cones for their crowd control division agents to just stand around in their upgraded neon lifesavers jacket, looking like their head is above water… …. …..This is why they need another complaint box next to their comment box…Oh…. And the food is great here btw 1 + 2 + 3 Stars! Try out California fries…Here is the Home of the California fries

One word: vomitMy friends came from Canada to visit me and I wanted to take them to a non-fast food mexican restaurant, so we went here.Let's talk about the food, we ordered some burritos, some enchiladas, some tacos and some of their "famous California fries". The shrimp burrito was bland, the chicken burritos, according to my friends, was nasty. They tried the nachos and the cheese tasted wierd. I got the fries. The fries were horrible, they tasted metallic, as if they hadn't changed the oil in ages. The fish also had the same taste. We had two shrimp orders, they both had those small little orange colored fake shrimps that were gross. We ate it because we were starving. After leaving and going home, 2 of my friends threw up a bit.We took the food that we didn't want, which was most of it because I felt they would reuse it and serve it to someone else (I think that's there the fries and fish were from, a previous order).Service was ok, awkward mostly to be honest because there was only one person, who seemed to be the owner, and she had to deal with waiting tables as well as dealing with delivery drivers and phone calls. At the end, she charged us a 20% tip even though she had not let us know before this. (I was going to give 15% for meh service, but if you're going to charge me 20% without asking or telling me, then you get 0). She then started aggressively asking if there was anything wrong with her service and I said not really. It did bother me that the fact that she was probably the owner who was making all of the money from the restaurant.In hindsight, I should have told her that I would give her a full tip if we didn't have to pay for the things we found horrid. (The nachos, California fries and the chicken burritos.I felt horrible for taking my friends from out of the country to this place thinking they can try some good mexican food. They swore they would stick to fast food on the way back to avoid instances like this.

Used to love Mexican food but I will never eat Mexican again after eating the food here. Don’t recommend the prices are crazy high plus a mandatory 20% tip

Their quick service, fast and very polite. Food tastes very good and just enough on the plates. Waitress kind and comes back many times refilling your coffee. It's a great place to dine it with friends and family. ?

We order from doordash but food wasn’t that good. I order Chile rellenos and they were not good at all. No seasoning at all I had to add salt to my rice. Who messes up rice?..lol. Last time ordering from here had them awhile back it was better I don’t know what happened.

Like home service and great cheap food

Really good Spanish dinner plate. Unfortunately, this was my 4th attempt here. Doubt it's happening again anytime soon. Service is lacking. The lady that gave me my food (after standing in front of her for 20 mins) didn't double check the order that came out. I didn't get everything on the menu that was paid for. Then was put on hold for 45 mins and forgotten about. Then hung up on. So if you've got the time to wait, and don't mind not getting everything you order. This is the spot for you
