Delicious food! We had the carnitas burrito and carnitas plate — both were full of flavor and big portions. A little on the expensive side, but worth it. Friendly service and we’ll be back!

La Esquina is a great low-key spot that feels like a small-town Mexican restaurant—a refreshing break from the over-the-top and overpriced for what you get dining scene in Los Gatos. The chicken mole was excellent—rich, flavorful, and made me want to explore more of the menu. The al pastor street tacos were fantastic, full of flavor and cooked just right. I probably won’t order the chile verde tacos again, but everything else was strong enough that I’m already looking forward to coming back. Friendly, relaxed atmosphere and great food—what more could you ask for?

We ran into one of our favorite restaurant owners. Jesse, former owner of Casa Teresa. we stopped by his restaurant in Los Gatos called La Esquina Mexican, located across the street from the Los Gatos DMV. The food was great. The atmosphere was nice and his coworker Melissa was a very nice person and very attentive. It was fun to catch up and talk about old times. If you have a chance, I encourage you to stop in and say hi and have bite to eat.

My wife and I were actually on our way to eat at Oak and Rye when we decided to pop into La Esquina Mexican food. I had a carnitas burrito and my wife had the street tacos. We were both extremely happy with our choices. My carnitas had some crispy pieces that made my day. My wife said the tacos were moist, tender and very flavorful.
