Taqueria Mana

This is my favorite hole-in-the-wall Mexican spot in northern California. The price is right, the owners are friendly, and the food hot, fresh, and delicious. I'm fortunate to live nearby and leave work early to grab to-go for dinner. My go-tos are one of the combo specials - either 3 tacos (+ chips and soda) or baby burrito (+ chips and soda). A steal at around $12 each. ALWAYS GET THE EXTRA SIDE OF SPICY SALSA (SO GOOD)! Separately, I recently worked with the owners (Jose and Julia) for a large catering order for my company and they put together a fantastic taco bar spread (chips, pico, all the fixings for street tacos, plus rice + beans) - it was very well received! Trying to figure out how to convince my company we need a taco bar spread every month ... (suggestions welcome!).

made it a point to get a burrito while I was on the west coast, and I'm so glad I picked this spot! Everything on the menu looked great, the service was friendly and efficient, and the prices were more than fair. The burrito I had was perfect! I think out of all the meats I tried, the carne asada took the cake, but the al pastor was good too. It was a quick walk from there to Chinatown, too, so if you're doing touristy stuff, this is a great pitstop along the way.

This little place has great food at an excellent price! It's a little hole in the wall right next to the tunnel. They have very nice people who run the place. We ordered the baby burrito lunch plate and it was not baby! This baby burrito came with chips, salsa, and a cold canned drink for $8.75. Highly recommend if you want a quick, authentic, yet budget friendly lunch!

My experience eating at Taqueria Mana was very positive. The food tasted fresh and i enjoyed watching my food prepared in front of me. I chose the Baby Burrito special which included a Chips, Salsa, and a Soda. The Taqueria only had 2 tables and counter seating for 3 people. The menu offers many specialty plates such as Tamales, Enchiladas, and Soups. The staff is friendly and helpful if you have questions about the food. The Salsas vary from Pico de Gallo to Salsa Verde. The ATM machine is broken but the Taqueria accepts Credit Cards and Cash. Important to know you can access the Taqueria by bus and walking. The parking garage across the street is expensive. I recommend a visit.
