The 24 Best Restaurants In Palo Alto - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"Taqueria El Grullense M&G is part of a group of similarly named taquerias across the Peninsula that are all owned and operated by the same extended family. This small location is Palo Alto’s version, and it’s the best taqueria within city limits. The menu is long and all of the meats are tender, but the differentiating factor is their salsa—specifically, the fresh green tomatillo with a tangy kick and the ever-so-slightest hint of smokiness. Douse your tacos in plenty of it. They’re open from 8am to 11pm, seven days a week, so you can get your asada all day long." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, gabi moskowitz

We got a California Burrito and some Tacos. It was delicious. They weren't stingy for meat servings. The staff was kind and patient. We also got some horchata which was great. It's authentic Mexican food. The environment is very down to earth, which I like. It's a casual place to eat, and it's still delicious. Would definitely come back

Lowkey I would not get the tacos, they were small with not that much meat in them & really greasy. The Jamaica is good though & staff is nice :) Pretty affordable too

Wow, Amazing ! Just look at the size of this wet Burrito ! It was Soooo delicious. The green sauce was phenomenal ! And this meal as pictured with soda, chips, and side salad is reasonably priced for the Palo Alto area. This Burrito is so big, i will eat half for dinner and save half for lunch tomorrow. I recommend and will return for more !

Excellent across the board. I had a "super" burrito - very delicious with fresh ingredients. The salsa was also something else. Delicious and very generous dish sizes! Also staff is very friendly.

5 stars Meaty Fries, 3 stars chicken super burrito. Five stars for the carne asada nacho fries—absolutely god-tier and the closest thing to Southern California-style fries I’ve had, maybe even better than a lot of SoCal spots I’ve tried. The fries were hot, super crispy, and perfectly cooked. I did notice some liquid in the carne asada, which makes me think they might boil the meat, but I’d need to try it in a taco or burrito to confirm. Two types of cheese processed nacho cheese and melted real cheese. Despite being drenched in sour cream, these were easily the best “SoCal-style” nacho fries I’ve ever had. As for the chicken burrito, it’s a solid three stars—pretty average. The pollo asado chicken was heavy on the black pepper, and the beans and rice were nothing out of the ordinary. It was also overloaded with sour cream, which made it feel a bit too heavy.

Very nice people, but I got a chicken super burrito and honestly it did not taste good. I thought the flour tortilla was super thick, and the contents within tasted off. My tummy is also not very happy unfortunately. Will not be returning.

This was my third time here and I won't give them another opportunity. At 10am I ordered 2 breakfast burritos and was told they were out of potatos. A few minutes after ordering I see the flat grill full of potatoes being cooked. When I asked why she told me they were out she explained, they're not out of potato it just costs $2 extra per burrito. What? Why? The menu says, "potato, egg, cheese and choice of meat" so an upcharge at that point is dishonest and feels very underhanded. So I obviously wasn't going to pay $17 for a breakfast burrito after that so I just stuck with rice. Well that's exactly what I got... 2 rice burritos. The attached pictures are of my burrito at 1/3 eaten and then again at 2/3 eaten. 95% rice. I never tasted chorizo, never came across cheese and barely saw a tiny bit of egg. My other visits to this location had similar problems. I'll add: the tacos are pathetic here. ZERO value for the money in my opinion.
