Probably one of the cleanest and nicest interiors of any Mexican restaurant I've been to. There's plenty of parking on the street and the parking lot attached to it has several spots as well. The indoors has quite a bit of seating and the service and food are unbelievable. I called in my order and the pick up process was as smooth as can be. We were so hungry we didn't even take pics! We ordered a super shrimp burrito wet and it definitely lived up to the name. I will say, being from New Orleans, I've never found anywhere that has large jumbo quality shrimp like in the south. I can't knock them for it but it did seem the burrito was heavy on all the other toppings and the shrimp was very small and relatively scarce. Overall the burrito was amazing, but I am still holding out for a place that has large jumbo sized shrimp rather than the smaller ones in the Bay Area. The other order was a Carne Asada burrito wet, and from what I heard it was delicious and was rated a 7/10. I'm glad I came across this place and I definitely plan to try them again in the future. Give them a shot!

Service was really good, food was awesome, but food was kind of expensive specially the tacos about $8.00 per taco.

The food is amazing, considering they have a lot of different types of food to order every day of the week. The ambience is welcoming as well. This is my go-to Mexican restaurant whenever I'm in Hayward.

I've been coming to this place for years and it's always a great time. My favorite dish is the chilaquiles and obviously their tacos. Their customer service is great. Sometimes they take a while to bring out the food but they are very busy most of the time. The place is always very clean and feels comfy. Love going to El Taquito.

I went in on Valentine's Day with my family. I'm just leaving this restaurant. I get in and we order our food, my kids are crying because they're hungry, the power then goes out and we're told that our food is ready and that we have to pay with cash. We only had card on us all this was happening while sitting in the dark. They refuse to give us our food, I don't see why they couldn't just give it to us, they were going to throw it out anyways. They'd rather throw out the food than to feed my kids. I understand the power going out is out of their control but they need to figure out other solutions in case this were to happen again.
Best pinches tacos in the bay. Food is on point.. every time. Life is good... but El Taquito makes it better.

Great food and great service. The tacos are really big and filling. They don't mess around with portions. Where you usually buy four or five, you only need about two! Loved it here, and this place has been around for a long time.
