La Guerrera’s Kitchen Is Bringing the Tamales Back at Its New Oakland Restaurant | Eater SF

"Before it closed in 2015, La Borinquena was a Mexican deli-restaurant a couple of blocks away that was considered the place to buy tamales in the East Bay for decades, so La Guerrera’s return to Old Oakland feels like a meaningful full circle for the neighborhood." - Luke Tsai

I order rice with fried pork and tostones. The tostones don't even look like tostones. The mayoketchup was inside with tostones and heat melt the cap. Should be outside heat doesn't do that "tostones" weren't not even crisp. Carne frita was ok seasoning. Rice doesn't taste like pigeon pea rice. The person taking orders was lost, and having a bad day letting customers this by attitude lack knowledge what offer and getting aggravated if you change your mind. Need better cook and customer service. The lady was told I will be waiting in my car pointing at it in front food truck she send a guy was there looking around when she was told where I will be. Pasion fruit juice don't even look natural as she said would be (see pic) First and last time. Other customers left because lady didn't know how to explain menu. Price I think a little high for example tostones order $5.50 La señora tomando orden estaba perdida, frustrada y poco amicable. Ordene arroz con gandules (unico arroz) y carne frita tostones y jugo parcha dis q natural. Los tostones no estaban crispy no parecen ni tostones. Artoz desabrido y carne frita un poco de sazon. El jugo no es natural miren la foto. El mayoketchup o condiments no se ponen dentro de lo caliente el mio se le deritio la tapa. Necesitan personal q tenga buen servicio al cliente no se frustre y sepa como describir lo q venden. Primera y ultima vez

First time trying La Boriqueña and me and my man loved it ! We ordered Arroz con guandules y Pernil which came with a salad. I also had the parcha which was amazing. Authentic Puerto Rican food, friendly women and comfortable seating. Te amo!

Was not able to order any food this time but I ordered to fresh drinks. The one on the right was a mango drink and on the right is tamarind . Roman was inviting nice and even educated us on the tamarind fruit . He was swift while blending the drink and very welcoming . The ambiance was great and if I hadn’t eaten previously I would have ordered a plate as the customers were eating there food excitedly. Would highly recommend

Used to go often to this place, prices were a little high but food was great, after a few month's i came back to eat with a friend and we ordered Mofongo and Carne Frita. They told me it was going to take 20-25 min to be done. After i waited for 38 min i stood up and asked if it was close to finish, and apparently they dropped my plate in the floor and it was going to be another 30 min wait. Which is unacceptable, first because i saw when he gave a plate to a guy that recently arrived which contained the same thing i ordered. What are the odd's right? Anyway; i'm never coming back and neither my friends.

Great place to get something authentic style PR food. The Alcapurias were filed with more beef or crab then actual crust (massa), the tripleta sandwich was straight from the Island, the flan was delicious as well and you can chase all your food down with either Malta, Gasolina (Sangria), Medalla's or other soft drinks. Mr. Roman, the owner/ operator was very accommodating with recommendations, freshly on the spot cooked food but it's well worth the wait ! If you don't want to cook for family gatherings or UFC/ Boxing or other sporting events Mr. Roman does catering to your specifications ! My Family and I will be visiting La Boriqueña soon enough ! Buen Provecho !
