Taqueria La Perla Tapatia

★★★★★ 4.7 (507) • $$

"Walk in and order at a counter, sit where you'd like, help yourself to soda fountain, chips, salsa, pickled and sautéed vegetables: perfection. They have indoor and warmed outdoor seating, booths, and vibrant decor. Even though we ordered at the counter, we were checked in on multiple times while we ate. Employees were friendly, attentive, and efficient. My friend got the lunch special (3 tacos with your choice of meats and rice and beans for $12), and while I love carnitas, asada, and more culinary zest in general, I often find myself being allured to something simple. What can I say, I get overwhelmed easily. Beans were delicious, refried to perfection, melted Colby Jack in perfect ratio (people can mess up a bean and cheese burrito). Eli said the tacos were delicious. Chips and salsa some of the best I've had. I would highly recommend this establishment."

West Coast Taco Bar

★★★★★ 4.6 (473) • $$

"It's a small little taco place, but the food is stellar! I loved my HUGE chicken burrito and side of rice and hubby loved his taco trio: Sweet Potato, Adobada, and Cochinita Pork. Prices are super reasonable: around $25 for two and I'm having the other half of my burrito for lunch tomorrow. Really creative, unique flavors, fabulous service. We love West Coast Tacos!"

Mas Taco Bar

★★★★☆ 3.9 (647) • $$

"Mas Tacos, in Folsom's Palladio, has been on my radar for awhile. The first time I tried dining here, we were told it would be over a hour wait to seat 2. So we passed. This place is wickedly popular. Finally I got a chance again on a recent Sunday for an early dinner. I was with a large group of 17. We called a few hours ahead to set up a reservation which we secured. Right when you step in, it's the bar area. Impressive top shelf liquor display that takes up nearly the entire wall. They have indoor and outdoor seating. TVs throughout that are tuned into sports. The outdoor seating is covered and enclosed reminding me of a green room. There was a fireplace that gave off a lot of heat. The vibe is family friendly. Onto the food.., Chips n Salsa. $4.25. The chips were fried tortillas... aka tostada shells. Street sized taco tortilla. The order comes with two salsas, red and green salsa verde. Not sure if they were fresh house made but sure looked and tasted like it. Delicious Drunken chicken taco. $3.95. I don't know how they got the chicken drunk. But it was delicious. Moist, seasoned, flavorful pieces of chicken. The tacos were priced around $5. Short rib taco. $4.45. I got unlucky with the short rib meat. In my taco, the meat was mostly fat. Big, globby pieces that had the same coloring of the cooked short rib. But the others in my party didn't have that issue. They got hefty gorgeous looking pieces of short rib. I swiped a piece from one of their tacos. Mmm... it was delicious. Tender, soft with a fantastic rich deep meaty flavor. Posole. $7.50. It was a bland tasting even with a squeeze of lime. It did look beautiful though. Bright, fresh colors. And it was presented well. Our waiter took our order while various other staff delivered the food. When we asked for extra plates and drink refills from the various staff other than our waiter, we never got them. We asked for extra plates since they batched a bunch of taco orders onto one plate. Our waiter was handling a bunch of other tables as well. He was great. But obviously stretched thin. He could have benefited with more support from the other staff."

"A place you cant go wrong. It's always SO GOOD. We came and it wasn't busy so we seated ourselves. We LOVE anything with their pork belly, I highly suggest their pork belly taco though that isn't what I got this time. We both got bowls; mine with lettuce instead of rice and his with cilantro lime rice and add black beans and avocado ( and additional charge of .95 and 1.95 respectively). Absolutely delicious. We devoured the chips and salsa before I got a photo but the chips are whole whole corn tortillas unbroken fried. It comes with salsa but there are also 2 sauces on the table, one red based with ha anero and one green based with jalapeno. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable and kept checking on us. As per usual, it was a great time. 10 out of 10 will definitely visit again."

Bambi Vegan Tacos

★★★★★ 4.7 (300) • $$

"Once again, I was able to attend another superb vegan/vegetarian UYE arranged by Bridget W.! The day was originally held a few weeks before on Sept. 26th, except attendees were not able to make it, so Bridget kindly rescheduled the event to Oct 9th instead. However, 9 Yelpers stated that they were "in" only to not show up again! https://www.yelp.com/events/sacramento-rescheduled-uye-eat-your-veggies-bambi-vegan-tacos?ytl_=68b741a81ba54ceca88561ae3070513d&utm_medium=email&utm_source=email_event_reminder&utm_campaign=Oct-08-2024Anyway, Bridget and I still enjoyed an amazing evening of delicious food that I'm still craving and dreaming about! When we entered the restaurant, I noticed it wasn't busy, and it had a nice, almost romantic atmosphere. There were two TV's on, but they only showed cartoons for some reason. But this place is all about their own creative versions of vegan tacos designed in various combinations of veggies and flavors! The menu and wall specials made deciding on what to get very hard for us both, but I eventually chose 2 tacos: The Al Pastor: Achiote marinated mushrooms, jalapeno crema, charred pickled pineapple, topped with onions and cilantro. And the special: Ensenada Squash Taco: beer battered zuchini, slaw, pico de gallo, parmesan cheese, and peach BBQ sauce. We also shared a Chori Queso Dip: Nacho Cheese, & House Made Chorizo, Served w/ homemade Chips. Every morsel and mouthful was excellent! Another enticing feature about this restaurant is that it serves alcohol! Since I don't have much of a night life anymore, it's been a very long time since I have had a specialty cocktail. I decided on the Watermelon Juicy Fruit Margarita served w/ a tajin rim. Another delicious and thirst quenching drink that really added to the whole dining experience! Despite missing out on meeting some new Yelp friends who were a no show, Bridget and I still had a very nice dining experience. The food, drink, and wait staff really made for a memorable evening! The prices were very reasonable too!"

Zecky's Fish Tacos

"Came here for carne asada fries and they were so delicious! The fries are still crispy and hot which is rare for most carne asada fries I've had. The ratio of toppings is pretty good. And the sauce they have on top goes really well with it too. Only complaint is the portion is a lot smaller than other places even at a similar price point. Would only be worth on the special discount day."

"It is my second visit here during lunch time. We had a party of 4. Arrived at 11:30am and was seated promptly. Parking was easy in their small parking lot. Restaurant filled up quickly during the lunch hour. The decor is colorful and made me feel like I was in Mexico. The staff is friendly and attentive.The charge for chips and salsa. Which was odd to me because most Mexican restaurants I have visited usually offer complimentary tortilla chips and salsa.I ordered the 4 soft tacos with 4 different meats: chicken, asada, carnitas, and adobada. I enjoyed them"

"Booking Paquitas Mexican Grill was the best thing for our Taco and Tequila Wedding. Rubén, was awesome! He answered my questions right there and then. Asked him if we could do a tasting and sure enough, he made that happened!His vibe was everything and my husband and I were like "Yup, this is it". We had already inquired with other similar vendors but somehow we didn't connect. I'm glad we did with Paquitas.Our guest truly enjoyed an upscale Taco Bar. From the way they set up to the way they delivered , EVERYTHING WAS GREAT! His staff was awesome as well! If you're looking for fast communication and someone to cater your event with passion, Paquitas it is! Thank you guys so much! Wishing you all the best and many many more events to come!"

Yolanda's Tamales Factory

★★★★☆ 4.3 (201) • $

"A small little mom and pop shop located near florin and Franklin. It's really in the hood, but when you come in the place is nice and cozy and has a homey feel. The order takes who I assume is also the owner was very kind and sweet. We ordered a #1 with the pork tamale and #2 with pork tamale and asada taco. Everything was good, I was a tad disappointed they didn't have any fresh Agua Frescas but understandable since it looked slow. The tamales are huge. It was a little too dry for my liking but I smothered it in sauce and it was fine. Flavor was good though. Maybe I came on an off day, but I'll come back to try if anything."

Taqueria Los Compadres

★★★★☆ 3.6 (251) • $$

"I've been wanting to try this place out for a while. When family wanted Mexican for dinner, I jumped on the opportunity to give this place a try. When you enter the front door, there's a big menu on the wall. Lots to choose from depending on what you're hungry for. You order and pay first, and then find your table. They will bring out your meal. There's a chip and salsa bar to add to your meal while you wait. The employees here were very cheerful and patient while we decided on what we were hungry for. The restaurant itself was very clean. Ample seating. Gosh! Even the patrons waiting for to go orders were very friendly. It's a shared parking lot so parking was not a problem. Pricing overall was decent. A few items were higher prices, but nothing crazy. I had the chimichanga and it was very tasty and filling. We were on starvation mode so there's not much pictures to show! I'll be back to give other menu items a try!"

"Located in downtown Davis, this is a great restaurant and bar, which offers a student discount (with ID). Excellent happy hour specials. $7 food menu and $5 drinks! I highly recommend their quesabirria especial- 3 crunchy, fried tacos with shredded beef and cheese. Upgrade to the combo, which is $3 for beans and rice. Homemade tortilla chips and salsa (green and red)."

The food here is always good and the prices are reasonable."

"I was in the neighborhood and wanted to try something new and I am so glad that I did!The inside of the restaurant was very cute and had a bunch of mini cars as decoration. The cashier was very welcoming, explained the menu to us, and even gave us some of her recommendations. It was really nice that they had english translation so it was easy for me to figure out what ingredients were in each menu item. This is my first time trying a torta and I decided to get the Delisiosa Torta. They also had a salsa bar which made it easy to get different salsas. The torta was delicious so I would definitely recommend it to a friend!"

Penas Taqueria

★★★★★ 4.8 (64) • $

"In California we eat food out of trucks, particularly Mexican food, and it's better. It's hard to explain to foreigners from other states, but this is one of those places that proves it.I asked the attendant at the gas station if it was a good taco truck, she gave me that knowing look like I was a young pirate who just discovered a great treasure. I decided to begin with the tacos. Let me just say, they do not skimp. They don't skimp on portions, they don't skimp on quality, on extras, or presentation. I am writing this in a minor food coma. Four tacos were a bit much. I was able to strip down from two tortillas to one. "It's always makes me feel like I'm making healthy dietary food choices, illusion that it may be." You're probably wondering if I ate jalapeño. Yes I did, I did sweat, but it made me feel very manly. Why are you still reading this! Go eat. The end."

"I was just looking for a place to unwind on a Friday night and found this location. First thing you notice walking in is the cleanliness!!! The music playing wasn't too loud and the overall atmosphere was perfect to eat and have a comfortable conversation. The staff were super polite and service was FAST! I was just wanting street tacos, but ending up getting a chicken flautas plate and adding two street tacos on the side. I must stay both plates were stuff with lots of meat! The flautas were good crispy all the way, and the tacos had a mound of carnitas on top. When I ordered the large margarita it was GRANDE! My favorite part of the my dinner was this pink looking jelly that was actually habanero salsa. It had a somewhat pickled flavor but hit that spicy hot spot just right. I mixed it with my guacamole and this green cilantro salsa they had that their chip and salsa bar! I must say I was pretty impressed! Thank you for the wonderful experience and delicious food!"

"Wow! This hole in the wall was a great stop on our drive from Tahoe to San Francisco! Delicious tacos, fast service, and great prices. My husband and I had 3 tacos each, which was about the right amount for lunch (I could have probably eaten a 4th). We tried 3 kinds:1) Carne asada - delicious 2) Al pastor - excellent3) Chicken - good, but nowhere near as good as the other two Be sure to get salsa at the outdoor salsa bar - the green one was great!This place is no frills - you order at one window, and then wait for your food outside. Our food was prepared quickly. There are no restrooms available, which is unfortunate.Each taco is $1.50, which is great. Overall, we loved this place, and would recommend it if you're looking for tasty tacos and are ok with a no frills setting."

El Burrito Taqueria - Sacramento

★★★★☆ 3.9 (50)

"This is a brand new business on Del Paso Boulevard in Old North Sacramento in the building that used to be KFC. El Burrito Taqueria has five locations now, this is the newest one. They worked super fast converting this space - it is really nice. The front patio is large and beautifully tiled. Wonder if they are dog friendly. The inside has partial booth and traditional table seating. Order at the counter, receive your table number and hit the chip counter to pick out your chips, salsas and more. The salsa verde was my favorite salsa. My partner loved the habanero. Chips were super fresh and crisp.For our mains, we ordered:-Chile Relleno burrito bowl with grilled chicken - I added grilled veggies too. This was amazing and a huge portion. Comes with rice, beans, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, cheese and lettuce. -Cabeza taco - my partner said this rivaled with some of the best Cabeza he's ever had. -Pastor taco - partner said this was good but not amazing. So glad to have this taqueria close-by - this is going to be my new go-to Mexican joint!"

Tequileros Taqueria

"I am addicted to the Keto Tacos and the Keto Jalapeños. The food is seasoned perfectly and has the flavor that I was craving. It is at a food truck located at an Arco Gas Station, carwash exit so it is best to order ahead and they are hard to find by just driving by. The staff is very good at their job and provide excellent service. However, they look like they need some air conditioning in the food truck.Overall, they will keep me coming back."

"I can't not write a review for Birrieria Y Taqueria Velazquez.What an amazing gem located off Elder Creek in front of a truck company called Blueline Truck and Trailer Parts. I'm so glad I came here for lunch to get tacos. The service was excellent, the gal there was very nice and helpful. She double checked our orders to make sure what we (my sister and I) ordered was accurate, and even double checked to make sure if we want cilantro and onions or not.I ordered 4 quesa birrias, 1 cabeza taco, 1 tripa taco, and consomme for the birria. Waiting for our food was about a 5 to 10 minute wait considering there were 3 other parties ahead of us.The birria taco I tried was so flavorful and has 2 layers of crisp corn tortillas, birria meat well seasoned and tender, topped with onions and cilantro, and melted monterey jack cheese. Oh baby!$2.00 for street tacos, I got tripa and cabeza. OH MY GOSH! It is by far the best I've had in the Sacramento area. The tripa was seasoned perfectly, cleaned out with nothing inside, and crunchy like I was eating freshly fried pork skins. The cabeza was so tender, juicy, and flavorful. I think I've found my new favorite taco place!"

Jack in the Box

★★☆☆☆ 2.1 (133) • $

"I needed food that would be guaranteed fast. Fast food won. (duh) Wanted most healthy protein and got it - grilled chicken. The meat quality is not good but there was a tomato slice and a couple cheap leaves of iceburg lettuce and the bun was alright.I don't like the gimmicks that this chain advertises to lure in the mindless ones. Calling the sugarized sauce, "good good sauce"? Lame. Gimmick. And it wasn't good let alone good good. And I don't like the exorbitant price I have to pay so that Dumb Jack can afford for his jet fuel. Paid $13.26 for a #13 grilled chicken small fry and small drink meal. I don't like the rotten surface of the entire parking lot here. Property owners need to fix that. Major potholes. And the unnecessary curb near the liquor store? Better not hit that pointless hazard.I do like the wonderful service I received from Leticia (name on receipt). I do like that the bathroom was very decent for a fast food restaurant (need to be buzzed in). I do like the clean tables and the floor being mopped while there. I do not look forward to returning to any fast food joint, but at least I won't regret patronizing this location on top of eating junk food."

"I got two quesabirria tacos when they were outside Bike Dog Brewing in West Sac. Really good! Currently, they're $4 each, or you can get 3 for $10. They came with birria sauce, but I preferred eating them with the green and red salsa you can get on the side. Prob the best salsa verde I've had yet! The red salsa was a little too salty for my taste, but still really good.They're also really nice, friendly dudes running the truck. Will be trying more on the menu soon!"

"I've visited this place twice now and have no complaints with the food. There's even a free parking lot, so you don't have to worry about parking. The prices aren't exactly the cheapest but I still will stop by whenever I'm in the mood for Mexican. I'm glad to see there's another Mexican place in Sacramento offering vegan options. I've only tried the vegan fries and tacos. Both food options were amazing but I really enjoyed the vegan Al pastor fries. My boyfriend tried the birria tacos and he enjoyed them. I love that they are open on Mondays as nowadays a lot of restaurants close that day. There's plenty of tables and even some outside on a patio. I never wait more than 10 minutes for my food, which is nice. It's a solid choice for Mexican food and I know I will be back to try more vegan items."
