Tacos El Grullense C&D

Their tacos are BOMB! Not much of a fan of the burritos but they make some quality tacos, and they have the BEST Pineapple Fresca I've ever had in my life. Definitely my go to spot for quick tacos when at the mall. Really nice staff too.

Dropped by for quick snack. Ordered one crispy taco. And it comes in a nice little box with a lemon. Here are the results:- Taco shell tastes stale- beef is cold, dry, rubbery and under seasoned- lettuce is too watery so it tastes watered down- no sauce in the taco. - nice change to have Monterey Jack cheese thoughThe cost per person is about $5. Probably would not come back anytime soon unless this was a desert and this was the only place to eat.

Great place for tacos and burritos in the San Mateo mall. I had a regular burrito vegetarian style, which came with vegetables, rice and beans. I got it spicy and I would say that it was indeed very spicy! The wait wasn't too long and staff was friendly.

It's pretty good! The location itself is located in the dining terrace, and is very beautiful and clean looking! And the service was relatively quick (10 minute wait for 3 burritos). In terms of the burrito, it was pretty good too and I think this is the first wet burrito I had with a tomato on the side. The only issue I had was that the plastic knife was pretty bad at cutting through the tortilla so I had to pull it off with the fork. Though it was a small issue so it didn't affect my experience.Overall, it's one of the better mall dining experiences that I've had.

T L D R :Legit Mexican Street Tacos, Super Tacos, Burritos, Quesadillas & Horchata! Regular Street Tacos are just $2.75. Casual mall vibe, friendly happy order takers!I N T R O:Do not mistake this place for one of those typical mall eateries serving half-hearted low quality attempts at Mexican food. I've been a customer of Tacos El Grullense for over two decades now starting with their original neighborhood location on El Camino Real down the road in Redwood City. I was quite pleased to see them enter the big time here at the new food court at the pleasant Hillsdale Mall here in San Mateo.My usual order is one or two of their regular tacos and a Super Taco with either Al Pastor (marinated fried pork), Asada (beef) or Carnitas (shredded pork).. usually one of each! Asides from your meat of choice all tacos come with salsa, diced onion on double corn tortillas, soft on the standard tacos but gently pan fried to perfection on the larger super tacos. Super tacos also come with guacamole and sour cream and a bit more meat. PRO TIP:Be sure to scan the "bonus" menus near the cashier for specials such as shrimp, lengua (beef tongue), tripa, birria tacos, a kid's menu and breakfast burritos. Order up, and you get a pager that lights up and buzzes when your order is ready, usually within 4-7 minutes. Yummy stuff! Simply put, I always look forward to eating here! :)

I wanted a burrito and this was a burrito. It wasn't bad but it wasn't great. One of the most forgettable burritos i've ever had in my life.

I thought the tacos here were tasty, but not great value. I got 3 regular tacos for $12, but the portions were small, and there was not much meat, so it didn't really feel like good value. The flavors were alright although the meats were kind of dry.

I ordered a Super Steak Burrito and there's barely meat in it for $15. They also won't give you any sides unless you asked so when I asked the guy was kinda upset and only gave me pickeled carrots and no radish which I specifically ask for. For the price they should atleast give you a side of chips. They didn't even give me a side of salsa

Their nachos and horchatas are bomb. Maybe we lucked out and the cook working did a great job, maybe they're always this good, but they really hit the spot and the horchata had great flavor. It's been my drink of choice lately and I've been disappointed with them all until now.

I would like to give comments about your food We were just there, Mar. 03 2025 and i ordered tripas burrito and my wife ordered 2 chicken tacos. it was so good but the only problem we had was your food is getting too salty. I would recommend not to put too much salt. People will enjoy your good food more if you follow your customers' suggestions. Thank you.
