Monarca Mexican Restaurant

I was nearby and decided to give Monarca a try, I had always seen it driving on Foothill. Oh my god! I am so happy I did! These were some of THE most fresh flavorful tacos I have had in a while! We had the chicken and carne asada tacos. The freshest tasting meat and you don't feel taken advantage of for pricing, it is fair, get as much food as you can fit in your belly! Service was friendly and fast.I will absolutely be back, this is my new fav taco place! Thanks for the quality food!

Popped in a few days ago to see what type of breakfast burritos they had. The establishment is very clean and beautifully decorated with custom, handmade art. I ordered two breakfast burritos (to my exact liking) and they were delicious and reasonably priced! Salsas are awesome! The service was prompt and the owners/staff were very friendly. Going to try some other dishes here soon as I live right around the corner. This place might just become my new staple for burritos and tacos! Thank you!

I got some chicken tacos and a super chicken burrito to go. The tacos are 1 out of 5 just a little but of meat no flavor I will never get that again. The burrito was good. I would go back for just the burrito not the tacos.

The restaurant is esthetically pleasing, with beautiful artwork. They have great customer service. The tacos are amazingly great. We really enjoyed yummy colorful chips with the tasty salsas. We have yet to try other dishes, but will be back for more. We've visited twice so far, and brought some first timers back with us the second time. We recommend offering cebollita's even if it comes with an extra $1 charge or something. Thank you.

Decide to give this place a try after passing by all the time , amazingly, everything we order were delicious, from the burrito for my son , taco and torts for me and my wife , on top , employee were friendly and place is decently clean . Will definitely come back whenever I'm craving for Mexican food .

Their pastor tacos are absolutely amazing $2 tacos as well.. worth every penny Fast service, friendly employees . The restaurant has a clean and inviting feel.Guys, you dont have to circle the block for parking... there is a parking lot in the back!

I really wanted to like this place so it pains me to give them 2 stars. It's close by and the restaurant itself is clean, spacious, and nicely decorated. I have tried this spot several times over the last 3 months and have tried their tacos, burritos, and torta of carne asada and al pastor. Not sure if they're just inconsistent or their quality is getting worse over time. Their carne asada doesn't really have flavor. Their al pastor is really good and is why I wanted to really like this place. But their food has not been as good as it was on my first visit. My most recent visit, my burrito had mushy rice and too much rice and beans. The chips were stale and the hot sauce had no flavor. The food also took way too long to come out. All the employees are really nice. And if I were to recommend anything, it would be their Monarca Taco with Al pastor.

Yummy. 4.5 stars Delish burritos-carne asada and el pastor. Fresh chips and the salsa was very good. Definitely will continue to support this business.

The Chorizo and egg breakfast burrito was AMAZING!Best hot sauce ever!Very nice people. Great chips also. Ambiance was nice, cool things to look at while you eat

Visited CSUEast Bay and decided to stop at Monarca before heading home and it was like dropping by a tias house! Rice and beans are home made and the flautas with fideo were very home made! Highly recommend this new local gem! Suerte to the sweet familia serving up Michoacán style comfort food!
