Dona Tomas - Oakland

I'm sorry to tell them that it's always closed, it did before corona virus shutdown. Please stop asking how I liked it when I visit my friend's apartment in this building.

The restaurant has moved to the piedmont avenue, and I understand that it has new owners. we ordered a few take-outs and they had a good order for walk pick-up.

We have been delighted to dine at Dona Tomas since they first opened, and there is no other Mexican restaurant that I have encountered that is as delicious and enjoyable. Today, we had brunch and the carnitas tacos practically melted in our mouths. It was a delightful dining experience! To me, the true art of Mexican cuisine lies in the blending of seasonings and the creation of flavors that complement each other perfectly. Dona Tomas is truly a master of this art, and one of the reasons why I don't attempt to cook Mexican food at home – I simply can't recreate the flavors with the same authenticity. I highly recommend trying their dishes for yourself.

My girlfriend and I just came here and we had a delicious meal of carnitas and mole enchiladas. We are absolutely stuffed but we will be coming back many times. Wonderful experience overall!!

The Molé is amazing. Some of the best Chile Rellenos I've ever had, and I have had a lot in my lifetime. The Ceviché is to die for!
