Taqueria Roberto

Ambiance: has a traditional Mexican restaurant vibe. Tables spaced a fair distance apart and large tables available for large parties. I love the vibrant atmosphere. One thing I will say is they have an impressive menu selection here. So many options there is something for almost anyone. Service: the employees have all been really friendly and helpful. They are open to offering recommendations if you need, but honestly: everything I have had is good. And wait times are reasonable.Food: I love the carnitas here. Pro tip: carnitas tacos (super or regular) are incredible. They season the carnitas to perfection here. Their fajitas were good and so fresh. I cannot say enough nice things about the food honestly. I got a great side dish with my fajitas and tortillas. So good! TLDR: I highly recommend. Great carnitas. Great menu options. Friendly employees. Five stars.

Always looking for the best Crispy tacos! We decided to try this restaurant. Large dining room, well lit and super clean. Order at the register. At 5:00 there were quite a few to go orders and more diners walking in. Friendly staff.Crispy tacos were ok, not my fave though. Ordered shredded chicken and a carnitas taco. Shells were crispy, but a little oily. Good size too. Plenty of meat in both. Hubby had the chili relleno plate, it was very large. He liked it enough.Prices are decent too. Give it a try! They have lots of choices here!

Pretty standard food in a nice Mexican family owned restaurant. Wife had 2 different hard shell tacos. I had the chile relleno plate. Both passable, nothing to jump up & down and scream WOW!Salsa bar has 10 selections. I sampled 8. I really like the chipotle salsa. Great smokey flavor, intense rich pepper flavor and texture without much heat. I could down a bowl of it like soup.To order approach the cashier, tell 'em want you want, pay and take a table number marker. The food is delivered to table in about 99 seconds. !Muy rapido!Nice people.Clean room constantly monitored to clear tables and wipe down surfaces. Prices are reasonable. Good value.Many roomy 6 seat tables for parties and larger families.Try it, you'll like it.

We had a very good experience here. The food was amazing, prices were decent, the staff seemed friendly, the place was clean, chip bar was fully stocked, and the food quality was above average. The inside was decorated nicely and was a nice environment to eat in. I felt the food portions were very generous for the Chile Relleno and the Flan.The meat portions were also bountiful for the taco salad and taco. However, the cheese portion seemed a little low on the taco salad.Things I didn't prefer: the pico de gallo had a higher than usual amount of green parts of tomatoes.Area of opportunity: The women's bathroom was out of paper towels.Something I really liked: the food flavors and the tasty flan. Also, the jalapeño creama is actually thick (some places water theirs down).I would recommend this place to others and will likely come again, relatively soon.

Taqueria Roberto Mexican Food, located in Rocklin, CA lives up to their name, as they're noted for serving fine, authentic Mexican cuisine in western Placer County to locals and all those who appreciate the cuisine of Mexico. This fine restaurant opens every day of the week at 10:00 and serves all of your Mexican favorites, including menudo on weekends and a daily lunch special, that's served every day of the week.The restaurant operates on what I call the "taqueria format." The menu is posted above the order counter - it's also available online and in take-out pamphlets - and you make your selection from the video monitor. After making your selection, you pay for your order and in return, you'll receive a number. Then, you sit at any open table of your choice and when your order is ready, it will be brought to your table with a smile. There is a tip jar at the counter, but tips aren't expected, but they are certainly appreciated by the friendly and hard working staff.The large dining room is very open, clean and attractively laid out, and the large front windows let in lots of natural sunlight. Each wall had a couple video monitors featuring sports like soccer and college football. I went with "All Day Lunch Special" of three street tacos, refried beans and Mexican rice. The lunch included a soft drink, but I opted for a beer instead, and my friendly hostess gave me a generous discount on the bottle beer. Thanks! There are nearly a dozen meat fillings to choose from, and my choice today was birria.Each taco began with two small corn tortillas - each about the size of a DVD - toasted to perfection, complete with small grill marks. Toasting the tortilla brings out the flavor and helps the tortilla keep it's form, so your taco stays together as you enjoy it. Tender, juicy birria was piled high on the tortillas, with mildly spicy red salsa for an added zest. As a highlight, each taco was garnished with finely chopped cilantro and diced white onion.Taqueria Roberto didn't skimp on meat, as each taco contained a generous helping of the delicious, juicy, melt-in-your-mouth birria. As an added bonus, the birria had a slightly smoky taste to it - mesquite? - which added to the robust flavor and made the birria simply amazing! One bite into a taco, and I was rewarded with the amazing taste of the toasted corn tortillas, the delicious birria, along with the onion and cilantro. Muy sabroso!These tacos are called "Street Tacos" because they are similar to tacos sold by street vendors in every village, town and city in Mexico. During my many travels to Mexico, I've enjoyed countless "street tacos," and these delicious tacos taste exactly like tacos you'll find in Mexico.The Mexican rice was great, and made a solid, but unremarkable side dish. The refried beans were also great, but I couldn't taste the "nutty" flavor that lard adds to the tacos... I suppose management is nodding to the food police, or the tastes of local residents. Both the rice and beans made for a great side dish.The "All Day Lunch Special" is served every day of the week, and it's a good deal and truly a delicious meal. The fine chips and salsa from the bar made for a great appetizer and the Pacifico beer made for a great dessert. Truly a delicious meal and five-star dining.

Good was fresh, delicious and flavorful! The staff were super friendly too! We will be back for their street tacos and fresh salsa bar! If you're a sports fan, there are a ton of big TVs to watch your games too!

We had an amazing meal. The chicken fajitas arrived sizzling and were more than enough for two. The margaritas were fantastic, and the service was prompt. The restaurant's atmosphere was wonderful.

BiRria caldo was good 32 oz is not big enough good price. Missing ginger not hot or too spicy. Good salsa bar and cantina light chips.

Delicious. Love the salsa barSuper burritos- carnitas, shrimp and asada- all consistently delicious.

The food is delicious, but the front staff must not speak directly to the kitchen staff because more times than not the order isn't correct if you make any type of alteration to your order. The chip bar has a good salsa selection. Prices are fair, and the portions are plenty.
