"I'm hearing that a new taqueria called La Esquinita is coming to Rockridge at 5400 College Avenue (the former Filippo’s space), led by Thomas Schnetz of Xolo and formerly Tacubaya along with longtime employees Jorge Rosales and Juan Zarate Jr. It won't be a redux of Schnetz’s other spots, but there will be some overlap—tacos and burritos—while the team hopes to offer items such as albondigas tacos, fish tacos with salsa Veracruzana, and homemade chorizo with papas; the menu is still being finalized and the plan is to open in late May or June if everything goes smoothly." - Dianne de Guzman
