Canasta Kitchen

Mexican restaurant · West End

"The Alameda outpost of this Concord-based Mexican restaurant serves everything from ceviche to burritos and antojitos, which are all totally solid—but this spot stands out for their excellent quesabirria. The meat is textbook perfection (flavor-packed, tender, juicy), complemented by gooey cheese and crisped tortilla shells. It’s $15.95 for three, including the small cup of dipping broth. A no-fuss meal at Canasta Kitchen is quick, laid-back and made even better by one of their stellar margaritas. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
