La Esquina is truly a hidden gem tucked away on MacArthur Blvd. 🌮 With its colorful, rustic decor, it feels like you've stepped right into a cozy Mexican eatery.

I ordered the quesabirria tacos - they were absolutely incredible, filled with tender meat and served alongside handmade tortillas that were to die for. The friendly staff made my visit even more enjoyable, especially with my little one in tow.

If you're in East Oakland, don’t miss this place for authentic, flavorful comfort food! Just a heads up, they close at 6:00 PM, so plan accordingly... 😊
