El Cancun - Somerville

Type of dining experience: Dinner Cost per person: $10–20 Food quality: 2 Service: 3 Ambiance: 3

The food and service at this restaurant were excellent. We dined in for lunch and found the price per person to be between $1 and $10. The food and service both received a rating of 5, while the atmosphere was rated a 4. We highly recommend trying the Queso Dip.

My wife and I have dined at this restaurant many times, but our most recent meal was exceptional. The service was pleasant and we enjoyed the Flautas Huasteca and Molecajete dishes, which were excellent. The salsa is the best we've had. Unfortunately, the iced tea was not great, but it seems to be a common issue at restaurants these days. We have tried a variety of dishes like Pollo Con Crema, Tacos Roc, Quesadillas, Taco Salads, and Fajitas, all of which were very good. Like any restaurant, some days are better than others, but Cancun is just as good as any other Mexican restaurant in Oakland. Just be aware that they now charge a fee for using a credit card.

The food is not exceptional, but the service is excellent. The margaritas are always wonderful.

I highly recommend this restaurant to friends and family as they offer generous portions at a great price, and the food is delicious.
