My husband and I lived in Alameda for 4 years and ate at La Pinata at least once a week, if not more often. It was a mainstay especially when we had our first baby - the take out is just as good as eating in the restaurant! Chips and salsa are incredible. The fajitas are to die for - they are so big you could never finish it in one setting. I could get about 3 meals out of one order. They have onions, peppers, tomatoes, lots of cilantro - it's making me hungry just thinking of it! And the rice and beans are amazing! The hours also are great - 7 AM to 3 AM, so anytime you're hungry - you're all set!!!
Pros: Great hours, Incredible food
Cons: Crowded on weekends
