La Frontera Mexican Restaurant

19 Bay Area Spots Where You Can Find Crispy, Cheesy Quesabirria Tacos

"A relative newcomer in Oakland’s heavily Latino Fruitvale neighborhood, La Frontera opened just weeks before the start of shelter in place, in the former Taqueria Morelia/Talk of the Town spot. Here, quesabirria is treated as a verb as much as it is a noun, as the restaurant has a whole section of its menu dedicated to applying the quesabirria treatment — the melted cheese, the consommé, the crispy tortillas — to a range of proteins. So, yes, there’s quesabirria, but also “QuesaPollo,” “QuesaCamaron,” and even a “VeggieQuesa.” Call in or order online; there’s also outdoor seating available." - Luke Tsai
