Was craving a hearty soup and I remember such good things about this place years ago when I was still in a high school. Decided to give it a try, and wow I'm glad I did! The pozole was soooooo packed with ingredients. Especially the chunks of chicken!!! We also got the chicken quesadilla, and we loved the grilled flavor of the chicken. Chips + salsa were complimentary!
Service was amazing :) and the restaurant is large and roomy. I would definitely return!!!Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0 - Chase N.Union City, CA375629Apr 18, 2024Updated review

Been coming here for years, I love Tu Mero Mole and looks like they expanded their eating area so that's exciting!
Huge huge huge fan of their orange sauce (it's peanut based) and 10x better than la Vic's not to mention their burritos are 100x better in the first place.
Portions and prices are solid. 5/5 not much else to say, try it for yourselfHelpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 1 - Linda T.San Jose, CA2621225Jan 27, 2024
I find it hard to find good burritos that are not from a food truck (not sure if it's the stove that helps make a difference), but I love how they cook the burrito meat here! Each bite gives you a consistent texture and flavor. I usually like to drown my food in sauces, but here, no need. However, I do make sure to drink their green sauce if there are any left over!

Aargh! Is there new ownership here? Who messed up my most favorite Mexican place?????
The shrimp tacos used to be unsurpassed and my regular jam here. I was so disappointed the last few times I ordered these - there are a measly 2-3 shrimp pieces in the taco and a whole lot of potatoes in it!! Whaaat? Why mess with perfection?
The upped the price which I wholeheartedly support, but there's simply no excuse for nickel and diming customers by stuffing fillers into the taco and ruining it. The time before they picked chicken instead of shrimp in my takeaway order of shrimp tacos and I thought it was a mistake but now I'm not so sure.
Please WAKE UP whoever is running this restaurant and go back to your previous standards!!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jun 23, 2023Updated review
Came back after few years and this time I got the mole chicken enchiladas. They were so good! the mole tasted authentic and was perfect! We also got some chips and salsa and there was one peanut salsa which was something I have never seen at a Mexican place and boy was that spicy!!!! in a good way. :-). Next time I would like to try their churros and flan. :-)

They have a salsa bar to go with the complimentary chips they give you upon ordering food. I thought the salsas were good but could've used more flavor or spice. None of them were really spicy which works for some people. But I like a spicy salsa sometimes. I ordered chicken and shrimp fajitas with pineapple agua fresa. The chicken is dark meat and I'm not much of a fan of dark meat. Shrimp was good but again I felt like this dish could've used more flavor. But it wasn't bad. The agua fresca was yummy! The place has a nice vibe inside. There are about 6 tables total in the place and it could get crowded. Would like to try the churros and icecream next

Still my favorite go to place for burritos. Service is speedy and professional (and friendly!!) and the food is fresh and delicious.
Hubby and I get two burritos. We love the carne asada and I wanted something different and have been doing the shrimp burrito lately. Anyway, we cut them in half and eat half for lunch and half for dinner (or the next day's lunch)
I've been trying other places and my biggest complaint is you don't see the meat (or shrimp) when you cut it in half. I haven't found many that do a well filled burrito.
That's why I keep going back to Tu Mero Mole. Plus, they put in chips when I do takeout. Other places don't. And charge more. So I'll vote with my wallet and stomach.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1Feb 5, 2022Previous reviewI went a few time in the "Before Times" and enjoyed everything I purchased. I love the green salsa. I started buying burritos once a week after the Covid Times to support the local business. They're big so hubby and I cut it in half and enjoy half for lunch and half for dinner. The ingredients are always fresh. We settled on carne asada as the best for the burrito. The chicken is well seasoned. Al pastor is tasty. I love occasionally getting the shrimp fajitas.
They were recently able to break down the wall and expand into the store next to them that's been closed for awhile. So yeah! More seating.
