Adelita's Taqueria (San Jose, CA)
Score: 1 / 10 Reviewed by: treed
EDIT: I'm really disappointed that someone (perhaps the owner) is unfairly rating taquerias in San Jose that are more highly rated than Adelita's. Until this is either fixed by the offending party (preferably) or the intrepid editorial staff at burritophile, my score will be the lowest possible, and I will not return.
[original review]
Adelita's is out of the way for some (perhaps most), but not so far that it isn't worth a stop.
The shop is clean and bright inside. I showed up in mid-afternoon, and it was pretty slow. There were a couple of people who seemed to be regulars hanging about. Nonetheless, service was quick and friendly. My carne asada burrito was prepped with extreme speed. Integration was near-perfect; the only issues were a tortilla breach near the end and the avocados were still cool, which, although it does speak of their freshness, gives a strange sensation of in-mouth temperature. It was also not as spicy as I'd have liked. I have to dock just a bit for these minor issues.
Good horchata, too: very cinnamon-y.
