Doña is beautiful and has a great summer patio, but service and food is somewhat mid. Quality: 4 Value: 4 Service: 3 Ambience: 5 The patio and outside is absolutely gorgeous - it is one of the best outdoor dining spots in good weather. They have some heaters in winter, plus gorgeous lights. Inside is also beautiful! The food is fine. It's not the best carnitas or enchiladas ever. Their fish tacos are excellent. Servings are small for the price, but get, it's the Bay Area I guess? The service and upstairs only bathroom and self serve utensils etc is a little clunky.

You haven’t lived until you’ve Doña’d. Just say Doña to anyone in the area and everyone just goes, “oh my gosh, I love that place!!” Genuinely come to this place all the time and am never disappointed. The nachos are in my dreams at night and so are the passionfruit margaritas. The sopa is also a standby fav for me. Service is almost so quick it’s suspect but I’m a fan because there is never a long wait. My entire extended family does “Satur-Doña” at least twice a month and it’s become a fun tradition. Family friendly, always good, an Oakland Establishment and must try.

Food was super good. I got the nachos with barbacoa. It was very flavourful. Also got a couple margarita "pitchers" for the table to split. That was good as well, but the size of the "pitcher" is not worth the price. The "pitcher" is really just a Mason jar. I was expecting a real pitcher, like you get at a sports bar. As far as service, food came out fairly quickly. What I was not a fan of was that almost everything was self serve. They only bring you your food. You order/pay at the register (and our cashier wasn't the friendliest). They hand you your drinks. And find your own seat. They bring you your food. And that's the end of their service lol. You have to get your own silverware, your own napkins, your own straws, your own salsa, and when your ready to go, you have to get your own to-go boxes. There's no waitress seeing if you need a refill or anything. We were first time visitors and was expecting a restaurant style of service so it threw us off lol. Overall though, I would go back and order the nachos again. And the margaritas, just not a "pitcher".

Doña is a great place to experience quality Mexican cuisine. The atmosphere was pleasant, but getting used to the cafeteria-style service is not something I've seen much of. Nevertheless, once I had observed the customs, we eagerly dove into the food, which looked so pleasing. The flavors delivered a top-tier experience. A very nice touch was the vegetarian option for the bowl. Overall, I feel great about the location and service.

Las Guerreras, located at 907 Washington St in Swan’s Market, Uptown Oakland, serves authentic Mexican fare from the Guerrero region. A mother-daughter operation, the restaurant highlights fresh, flavorful dishes such as chilaquiles, the crab tostada, and mango coconut ceviche, with options that appeal to vegetarian and seafood lovers. Guests praise attentive service and refreshing drinks like sangria tropical.
