It feels like home! Connie you're the best! I ordered the Chilaquiles con arroz y frijoles, the food threw me back to Mexico's breakfast meals. Its worth every penny and let me not forget to mention her coffee. The coffee is sweet with hints of cinnamon and chocolate! Not one other restaurant bets Connie's authenticity. She's operated this restaurant for 27years!!! Iconic! Oakland spot check it out!

I’ve been there twice for lunch. No one home but Connie. We sat on the patio which was cool and comfortable. We ordered quesadillas and they were delicious! Maybe they didn’t look authentic Mexican but they were a welcome change to the same old Mexican lunch. Prices are very reasonable and I definitely will be back for dinner.

Connie runs the place pretty much on her own, so don't come if you are in a rush. However, if you have the time the food is excellent. Fresh, tasty, and a perfect pairing for cold beer. Make sure you swing by when you get a chance.

Went in today Thanksgiving Eve for some beef enchiladas and let me tell you these had to be the best beef enchiladas I have had from anywhere!!! The flavor was complex and immaculate, and I literally could not save even one bites for later, lol! I am so happy that I gave this gem a try today, as I am very happy with Connie and her ability to cook with style and love:)

Connies food is amazing. You can’t call it Mexican food as most know it. She makes everything from scratch and that’s why it takes a little longer that what most are use to. Sit on her patio, have a beer or sangria and enjoy the experience. Her flavors are amazing, like nothing you’ve had. So...if you like Tex/Mex this probably isn’t the place for you. If you love amazing flavors and sauces you’ve probably not had much in this flavor, this is the place. Connies been in the business many years in South America and Louisiana.. now you get the flavor!
Try it, you will love it!!

Connie is great and I feel honored to have such a gem in the neighborhood! The place looks nice with cloth napkins but is one of the most affordable options around, so I think a lot of people miss out when they're looking for a casual dinner. The food is lovingly prepared and the decor is comfortable, if a bit retro (which I appreciate). I am usually vegan, but cheat for the cheese in her vegetarian corn burrito!

Who wouldn't want Connie's as a neighbor? :-) We've had the best burritos mojados, enchiladas and soup here. The service is excellent, and sweetly done.
The ambience is intimate -- not too bright, and the decor is eclectic and busy but not overwhelming. Cozy!
As others have noted -- this is a no-rush experience. Don't hesitate to ask for things. And, if you have ever dined in a restaurant in Mexico, then you won't be surprised that your host lets you stay as long as you want... To that end, you'll need to ask for your check!

This cantina is like being transported to a Mexican Villa. The food is authentic, delicious, and home style. The owner, Connie is always here working away and her passion for her business shows in the food and decor. These are the independently owned small businesses we need to be supporting with our dollars. Enjoy!

This is the best Mexican I have had in a long long time. Connie is amazing. I told her I was allergic to dairy and asked her what to eat and she served me proper!! Also, the sangria is a must!!

Connie is here every night. Connie cooks the meal. Its wonderful. Quiet, cozy, comfortable. A rare restaurant in the super-foodie crazed landscape. Just food. Just people. Just right.

BEST Mexican food in Oakland. Authentic flavor, delicious salsa and Connie is amazing. I feel like I'm eating with family.

Hands down the best quesadilla I've ever had. I got the super dilla for $9.75. Well worth the price. I highly recommend this place.
