El Chilar Antojeria Mexicana - Oakland

I recently discovered this great spot for street tacos across the street and decided to give it a try. I ordered 4 tacos but could have been satisfied with just 3 due to the generous amount of meat in each one. I tried carnitas, Chile verde, and asada, but my favorite was the Chile verde for its delicious flavor. The tacos came with a complimentary bag of chips and there was a self-serve salsa bar available. I also enjoyed a refreshing horchata, which was one of the best I've ever had. Unlike most places that serve it with ice, here it was served directly from a glass jar without any dilution over time. The tacos were on point, served on doubled yellow corn tortillas with cilantro and chopped onions. Despite the slightly higher price of $3 each, I believe it was worth it for the ample portions. The cozy restaurant has only 2 bar-style seating areas by the window, but the service was quick. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for delicious street tacos.

I frequently visit this restaurant to grab lunch or dinner to go on my way home. The menu options are always delicious and affordably priced. If I'm just looking for a little extra to add to my dinner at home, I'll grab a single taco. You can't go wrong with this place!

I really enjoy the burritos at this place. It can get quite crowded during lunchtime and there aren't many comfortable seating options while you wait for your food to be prepared. However, the food itself is delicious.

Love the burritos here. it is busy during the lunchtime and there is no convenient place to sit while waiting for the service and preparation of your meal. but it's good to eat.

Customer service is terrible. It is also over priced, they were asking for $7.50 for a baby burrito and the written menu had $5.50, I asked why they were asking for that money when the written menu had a different price and their excuse was that the correct price used to be on the tv screen, but they didn’t have internet at the moment so I couldn’t see the price. Do not even bother trying this place.
