What National Day likes about Connie's Cantina:
This restaurant feels like home! Connie is amazing! I tried the Chilaquiles with rice and beans, and it reminded me of breakfast in Mexico. It's definitely worth the price, and her coffee is delicious with notes of cinnamon and chocolate. No other restaurant compares to Connie's authentic flavors. She has been running this restaurant for 27 years - truly iconic! Check out this Oakland spot! View all feedback. What Torgny Wikström doesn't like about Connie's Cantina:
This restaurant is a disaster waiting to happen. The meat looked questionable and the kitchen was dirty. I ordered a burrito and a torta, but watching the cook prepare the food made me feel sick. It seemed like the meat in the burritos was old and undercooked. I'm surprised this place hasn't been shut down by the health department in Alameda County. View all feedback.

I had a delicious burrito during lunchtime at this restaurant. The taste was exceptional and it was priced at an average of $10. Thank you!

Connie's food is exceptional! It's not your typical Mexican cuisine - she makes everything from scratch which may take a bit longer, but it's worth the wait. En...

The atmosphere was enchanting, and both the food and the owner, Connie, exuded a romantic charm in the most delightful way.
