"I've visited Los Garcias a few times and felt it was time to share my experience. It has been around for decades, and it never disappoints! I love supporting these mom-and-pop shops, and on every visit, I get to experience how much love this family puts into this restaurant. I usually order my norm, which is a carne asada plate with rice and beans. The cut of meat they use is top-notch and cooked to perfection. As many of you know, carne asada can easily be the best or the worst protein on your plate. For the record, LGR's carne asada has hit hard on every visit! It is tasty, tender, juicy, and just downright good! Their rice and beans here are always on point and pair excellently. Service is always friendly, and everything is priced just right. It can get a little busy during the lunch rush, but it comes with the territory when you serve great food. LGR will continue to be my carne asada spot of choice in the bay!"

This place was great. Food was super fresh and tasty. They also had a good size bar. Yelp needs to have my review 85 chapters long.

We've been enjoying delicious Mexican food both to-go and in the restaurant for quite some time, as we live nearby. The food is fantastic, and the atmosphere is wonderful—it's truly a hidden gem!

Love this place, it was my first time being here and the Carnitas were well-made, but the lingua is so, so good!! I really like tortillas they hand make their. To be frank, next time I intend on getting just two regular tacos instead of super since I don't like beans with my tacos.

A nice little place with a bat. Went at linch and had a good amount of people inside. First thing I noticed was a lot of margaritas on tables and bar. I would have got one but that whole work day thing. Again I ordered a carnitas burrito, they do not have a super so just a regular today. The flavor was good, very authentic traditional flavor. The burrito could have been bigger. I did say avocado, and got one slice. The food that was coming out to tables while I waited for my pick up all looked great, I will return and try another option. You can call ahead for pick up. Parking was tight. Staff VERY nice. View menu

It's a typical hole in the wall kind of place with minimal parking in the back, but that's how you know the food is going to be amazing!! You get a free tray of chips and three kinds of salsa and the chips were delicious! They feel homemade since I've never had chips like that. Refills cost money. There was a variety of different options, and I decided to go with the Super Tacos. They were huge I barely finished two. They were so flavorful and a tip is using the salsa they gave for the chips on the tacos! I would definitely go again! We were around dinner time and there was a line forming so it's best to go earlier.

Los Garcias is a family-owned business that has been serving great food for years. It's a local favorite. The restaurant faces Old Oakland Road. Though, the place is sorta hard to find, as it shares the same driveway/Parking lot with Alura Hotel. The inside has a bar with bar seating, in addition to inside dining. The place is small, and can accommodate groups of 6. I enjoyed my Burrito with Al Pastor. The meat was marinated well and cooked with bell peppers. They also include avocado and red and green chili sauces. Also, I had a taco with Carnitas. This was basic. I'll try another meat next time. Service was good. The cashier was sweet and friendly.

The three salsas that accompanied the chips were exceptional; my favorite was the creamy green salsa, but honestly, they were all delicious! The coffee was also fantastic. I ordered the chorizo con papas burrito, which was filled with beans, potatoes, and chorizo. My dad had a mulita, and my mom chose the plate version of the chorizo con papas. The homemade corn tortillas truly elevated the dishes—there’s just something special about them that enhances any meal, no matter how tasty it already is! I can't wait to return whenever I'm in the area. The parking is located at the back of the restaurant next to a motel, and it can be a bit limited, but that’s a minor detail. I was so excited about... View menu

In my humble opinion, I absolutely love Mexican food! Our friends recommended Los Garcias for dinner, and it was my first time visiting—definitely not my last! You could tell this place is popular, as it was bustling with people, but luckily we found a few available tables. The guys ordered Cadillac Margaritas, of course! Our friendly waitress was quick to take our order. We chose combo platters and a lengua platter, along with guacamole and chips, plus the complimentary chips that are served. Our food arrived hot and delicious! The beans were wonderfully creamy, and I have no complaints! I can’t wait to return! The service was genuinely friendly and courteous, and you can tell it’s a family...

We came here for Saturday lunch at 12ish. Los Garcias was surprisingly not busy. We got our order placed almost instantly and the food shows up in less than 10 minutes. Everything seemed to move much faster this time haha. As usual I got tostaditas with lengua (beef tongue), carne asadas, and carnitas (fried pork). OMG the meat was so good! I haven't been here for so long that the deliciousness of the meat blew my mind for a bit. Lengua was as amazing as usual, never tried their carnitas before and it was fried to perfection, carne asadas was delicious as well! Unfortunately, my vegetarian friends didn't enjoy their veggie burritos as much as I enjoyed my meat. Their veggie burritos were des...
