Authentic Mexican food with great prices. Fantastic atmosphere and great service. The clincher for me was the homemade floor tortillas. Delicious.

I don't like floor tortillas.

I meant flour but with these mom and pop operations you just never know.

Thanks for mentioning Hobee's. I can (barely) remember fueling up at the Hobees in San Jose before a Shoreline run. They're famous for including a huge slab of coffee cake with every breakfast order. Yum.
In San Francisco, I recommend All You Knead (in the Haight-Ashbury district) for breakfast. Good veggie burritos, too, as I recall.

When craving Indian food in Solano county:

Right in downtown Vacaville. Tiny little place, but damn tasty food. My favorite is the lamb tikka masala, and all the naan I've tried there has been excellent.

I was in Sac this past week.....I went to Tex Wasabi's Rock n Roll Sushi. It was only "ok". The salmon was EXPENSIVE.

When in Sac, the best place for expensive excellent sushi is Taro's by Mikuni, next to Arden Fair mall.
