Our Place in the Berkeley
Community.
Being a neighborhood restaurant means more than having an address in Berkeley. It means becoming part of the everyday rhythm of the community around us.
University Avenue brings together residents, students, workers, visitors, and people moving throughout Berkeley. Our location gives us an opportunity to serve that diverse community from one convenient neighborhood restaurant.
We appreciate the value of local places where people can simply come in and eat. Restaurants can become familiar stops during a busy week, places to meet someone for a meal, or destinations people remember when deciding where they want to go next.
That is the role we want University Taqueria to grow into.
Rather than centering our business around online transactions, we put the emphasis on welcoming people to our physical location. Our website helps you learn about us, browse our menu, see our restaurant, and find the information needed to visit. The experience itself begins when you arrive.

our approach
A Simple Approach to Dining.
We do not believe every restaurant experience needs to be complicated.
Sometimes you want Mexican food without turning the decision into a major event. You want to know where the restaurant is, when it is open, what is on the menu, and whether it fits what you are looking for that day.
Our approach reflects that simplicity.
Keep the focus where it belongs: the food, the restaurant, and the people.
We want University Taqueria to be an accessible choice for people who appreciate casual dining and the character of a neighborhood taqueria. That means keeping the focus where it belongs: on the food, the restaurant, and the people who come through our doors.
As our menu continues to be presented online, guests will be able to explore available choices on our Menu page before visiting. We would rather give you accurate information about what we serve than make broad claims about dishes, ingredients, or specialties that may change.
THE EXPERIENCE
Why We Focus on the In-Person Experience.
Convenience has changed the way people interact with restaurants, but there is still something valuable about visiting a local place in person.
