Friendly service and great, authentic food. Fairly small space for indoor dining but we prefer eating at the outdoor tables.

Taqueria la Plaza just catered my birthday party and it was a smash! They had all the food ready to go right on time. It came piping hot, and was most importantly of all, delicious. Authentic flavors, generous portions, and really nice people behind the counter. They are family-owned and I highly recommend this cute, tucked away place, for any meal - including BREAKFAST! Or to cater your next event! 10/10

The food is definitely tasty. The portion size for the price was reasonable. This is definitely a nice place to go for a meal. The staff was friendly and the service was great! There isn't much room inside but thankfully they have plenty of outdoor seating. Good for medium sized groups. The green sauce was saltier than expected and I removed a star because the food does seem to be seasoned for locals and they don't have buche. Their sign says "the real Mexican food in town" ...but if you don't have buche then you aren't delivering the full Mexican experience!

Been dying to come here forever as it's one of Robin Wood fav places... Taqueria La Plaza in the Lunaradis shopping center !!! It did not disappoint! It was great! Loved all the salsas!! And loved even more that the accommodated my request for a grilled fish taco... when I ordered it the woman behind counter said it would be as good.... But it was ... AMAZING!! Exactky what I wanted! I perfectly cooked grilled fish taco with fresh toppings. I also had the fried fish taco to compare, and it was excellent as well- not to heavy on the batter just great fish! We also enjoyed crunchy carnitas and chicken tacos! Delish! And a huge chicken burrito. Everything was fresh. We will be back!

Great food. Previously located in Concord near DJs Bistro but thankfully moved to the Palos Verde mail in Walnut Creek near Linardis. Everything is good but love the Al pastor and Carne asada. Do yourself a favor and check the place out. Support your local restaurants!
