What We Serve
Every dish starts with fresh ingredients and finishes over high heat. Here's a taste of what's cooking at El Asadero Poblano.
Spit-grilled pork with pineapple, cilantro, and onion on freshly pressed corn tortillas. A Puebla classic done right.
Marinated flank steak seared over open flame, served with charred lime, salsa verde, and refried beans.
Corn tortillas stuffed with chicken, smothered in tomatillo salsa, topped with crema and queso fresco.
Crispy golden churros dusted with cinnamon sugar, served with a side of rich dark chocolate dipping sauce.
Hand-mashed avocados with pico de gallo, jalapeño, and a squeeze of fresh lime. Made table-side when you call ahead.
Classic, mango, or jalapeño — all shaken with real lime juice and your choice of premium tequila or mezcal.
This is just a taste — our full menu has even more to offer.

Our Story
El Asadero Poblano isn't a concept — it's a continuation. Our recipes come straight from the kitchens of Puebla, where fire, corn, and patience have been the main ingredients for generations.
We opened our doors on International Boulevard because this neighborhood deserves food that tastes like it was made by someone who actually cares. Every marinade is mixed by hand, every tortilla is pressed fresh, and every plate that leaves our kitchen carries the same pride as the first one we ever served.
Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or settling in for a family dinner, we want you to taste the difference that real preparation makes.

The best reviews aren't written — they're earned one plate at a time.
"The tacos here hit different. You can tell they actually care about how the food comes out. My family drives from across the bay just for the carne asada."

"I grew up eating food like this at my abuela's house, and honestly, this is the closest I've found in Oakland. The salsa verde is unreal."
