"This self-proclaimed "Mission-style" taqueria features an addictive bacon-wrapped hot dog on the menu, as well as a vegan version of pozole that affirms its dedication to serving the community around it. The casual spot comprises of a patio, a mezzanine, and a dining room, offering selections of Mexican beers and six-ounce glasses of wine." - Ellen Fort, Eater Staff

"If you’re looking for a quick bite to avoid drinking in Uptown Oakland on an empty stomach, head to Xolo, an excellent taqueria right around the corner from the 19th St. Bart Station. They make fantastic al pastor, crispy tacos with beef, and burritos. And on Fridays, they’re open until midnight. Xolo is also a great hangover spot (get the Vampiro taco with al pastor and fried cheese), but just know the lunch lines can sometimes get long." - Lani Conway

Best vegetarian tacos around. This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. The people are great and the restaurant has tons of seating, including a small outdoor area out back. The portions are generous and I love coming here alone and with my friends as well!

I love this place! The food is delicious, the people are great, and the space is beautiful. I'm especially a huge fan of their gorgeous patio in the backyard.

I was craving a breakfast burrito and wanted to try a new spot. I've been here before but I never tried their breakfast burritos. I'm always greeted with positive energy when I enter this place. The serving portion sizes are large and the food is always tasty. If you can find parking, you definitely want to consider stopping here for breakfast.

This place was great! June 2021 and indoor dining is open. I ordered the surf and turf burrito. My girl ordered shrimp tacos. I love the decor and the taste of the food here. Shrimp here is really good! They sell Little Giant Ice Cream too. I'd come back again.

Amazing tacos! I has the fish special and the asada and both were among the best tacos I ever had. The crispy tortilla on the beef taco was a great surprise. The fish perfectly fried and everything over it was perfect. Great value too! And friendly and accommodating service. Expect a classic authentic taqueria ambiance and fragrance throughout.

Excellent food. I had a Chile Verde burrito, a flour quesadilla, chips & guacamole, and a salad. All the ingredients were very flavorful and obviously fresh and high quality. I also had a strawberry aqua fresca that was especially tasty. All of the staff at Xolo were very friendly and accommodating. I had been wanting to come here for years and now I very much regret not making the effort sooner... But, now I know for myself how good it is and I look forward to many more visits in the future. Parking can be tricky and definitely do not leave anything of value in your car, at least not visible.

I had the Pollo Burrito, it was very tasty and just the right amount of food! The bathroom was destroyed by a guy and no one bothered to fix it, and I couldn't use the bathroom. Otherwise, this is a great place to have a quick bite to eat.

We had done a takeout from this place.. 2 veg tacos and one fish taco.. It was supposed to be a battered tilapia ... there was batter made of stale stale oil and th3 fish was basically missing ... we still paid a premium bec it was fish tacos.. the food was very dry, tasted old and the tortillas had this godawful old socks smell.. what are you guys doing ?? Personally, I wouldn't come back here..
