Maria Elena's. Formerly El Mexico Lindo.
Quite simply the best Mexican food in the bay area. Don't believe me? Try it.

I have been coming here for years with Lockheed brothers. It is a magical environment reminiscent of a sun-scorched Mexican village. The whistle of a Union Pacific train in the background. The carcass of a 1954 Studebaker rotting quietly across the street in a dusty backyard. Salt breezes wafting in from the bay.

2002 update:
Alas, the Studebaker has been swept up in a recent "cleansing" of Alviso.
