**CASH ONLY**Warriorrrrrrrrs! I stumbled across this article about former Warriors player, Juan Toscano-Anderson's grandma, owns this shop. Moved by the article, I decided to check it out.AMBIANCE:Parking: A small shared plaza that can fit about 15 cars.Seating: Good for individuals or pairs, maybe a total of 15 people, 4 groups.Vibes: Not the most flashiest parts of the Bay Area but your under the radar grit and grind area that contributes to the beauty of NorCal. It's relatively close to the freeway with a CVS and neighborhoods with a lot of history. You're welcomed by the hustle and bustle of the kitchen, flow of people, and Mexican music in the background. The aesthetics reflects it's business with a sense of cultural pride, you'll have equipment and supplies stacked around with a ofrenda alter, paintings, and finally photos of Bay Area legend- Juan Toscano-Anderson. Great spot for a quick dine or grab and go.FOOD:Taco Quesadilla - Pork (Recommend)Lovely, the pork was flavorful and savory with a good amount of cheese.Small Burrito - Lengua (Recommend)Deelish. A sizable burrito that is packed, a good portion of meat, beans, and rice for those with a small stomach. The lengua was tender with good flavor.CUSTOMER SERVICE:Great! It was busy but the servers took care of business with a great attitude!TL; DR OVERALL:4.5 Stars. Freakin awesome! Good food, simple choices, all at a reasonable price. I think what makes this place standout is their delicious food all at a fair price. It's great that it's off the freeway too! Best wishes to Dona Maria, JTA, and the Taqueria La Mejor family. Thank you for your affordable and delicious food!TIPS:* Remember, Cash only!* This is no hidden gem, loved by locals so be sure to come early to beat the rush

This place is delectable!!! The tacos are mouth watering and the burritos just mwah! I even dream of their beans, rice and cheese burritos. :)The service is sweet and the ladies working are super kind. We nicknamed the place moms cause we noticed moms doing all the cooking. Who can ever beats moms cooking? Don't be nervous of the neighborhood. Brave it as you'll be bummed it you do. The place has about 10 tables inside.Oh and note: this place is CASH ONLY! and it's not crazy expensive. I spent $20 for two burritos and two tacos! Go get some!

Ok, this spot is super unassuming. I went there cause it's next to the spot I do my laundry and I was hungry- but not super hungry. So I just ordered the six dollar baby burrito with spicy pork. Now why this thing only slightly smaller than a regular burrito lol. It was delicious and such a good deal for the amount of food.

It might seem like a little hole in the wall, but it's great takeout! I haven't tried the tacos but the tortas are definitely on point! Yum! Choice of meat- I get the carnitas and the steak (separately) as my choices. They're big enough that I can eat half and save half for another meal. It's cash only, so some people might take issue with that, but it's not a problem at all for me. They have drinks in the cooler if you choose. The tables are few and simple for dine in. The ladies are working hard in the kitchen and everything is served fresh. I ate my torta (Mexican sandwich) before I could take pictures. Yum.

Not bad for $11-$12 burritos. Been there a few times and never had a bad service or a complaint about the burritos. The parking space is small and can get really tight with other people driving in and out the lot. At times. Not all the time. Just sometimes. Other than that no complaints from my end.

Taqueria La Mejor... it definitely represents it's name. This little hidden gem is located off of 580 E. High street exit. There's always somewhere to park and the atmosphere is peaceful and the service is great. My go to on the menu are the $6 dollar burritos because I can afford to treat whoever is riding with me. But more so the food is always cooked daily and yummy to the tummy!! In addition, the place is clean and I give this Taqueria five stars for their love and effort! Maria Chavez

This is a fantastic place, I am almost reluctant to review it because I do not want crowds of foodies to spoil it. My personal favorite is the chicken super burrito, a staple food you can find anywhere but at La Mejor it is elevated by the use of the freshest ingredients to evoke a bite of mama's food. It is generous, juicy, fresh and delivers an infinite amount of taste and comfort. The staff is super friendly, and there is ample parking
