Ofelia's Taqueria

Pedi birria de chivo y me llegaron puros guesos. Muy poca carne la mayoria eran tres pedasos de guesos

Ofelia's Taqueria is a small corner shop on Tracy Blvd. the best description is Mom And Pop, serving. Good food without fanfare, just a solid place to eat. I had the Chile Colorado, very tender pork bites with a tasty red sauce. Perhaps a bit salty for some, but it suits my tastes very well. Served with beans and rice, it made a complete meal and I was full. For me, I'd give an extra half star for service, they were very attentive and polite. While the score looks average, it's better than that.

I'll start my review by stating we came in on a Sunday afternoon an hour before closing and the staff was friendly to greet us and sit us down. My friend and I weren't sure what to order on the menu and they were helpful with suggestions and quick to prepare our food.I thought the prices were reasonable for the portions that we got and the flavor was better than I was expecting based on some of the negative reviews.I would definitely want to come back here again and give more of their options a try if I'm passing through the area again!Ps: We got some of their orange coconut desserts on the way out and those were a great treat for the road!

Both food and customer service is great. I highly recommend, especially if you're looking for an authentic quick bit to eat.

So the good - the beans are fab, the chips are good. Also they got our order correct which is an ongoing problem at our fave CalMex in town, which is closed on Wednesdays.... Also we had no problems with service but we ordered to pick up. Now the problems. I had huevos rancheros and they were oddly sweet and had green pepper in them. We also ordered guacamole she asked if I wanted plain guacamole or with everything, which she said was tomato, cilantro, onions. I said everything - if I wanted mashed avocado I would ask for that. Sadly it was watery, sweet and nothing like guacamole. This was more like the guacamole stuff they sell in the grocery store made by national corporate offices. My son's quesadilla with carne asada had chewy meat. He didn't like the rice either which is usually a staple for him. There is too much good authentic Cal Mex in this town. It's also way too expensive. We won't be coming back. I don't want sweet in my food unless it's dessert; I'm a savory kinda gal and this wasn't. Sigh. Live and learn.

Heard about Ofelia's Taqueria when I was on a ski lift with a stranger in Kirkwood (south Lake Tahoe). My friend and I decided to check it out after a long day of snowboarding. My friend and I both loved it. I ordered the carne Assada super burrito. The rice was fresh and flavorful which complimented the refried beans and salsa very well. The server told me they are known for their carne asada and she was right. The asada was seasoned well, crispy, and freshly cooked. The burrito as a whole reminded me of home cooked style burrito that my roommate's mom from college made us. If you have enough room for dessert, I highly recommend the coconut ball they have in the front... my absolute favorite!The servers were very kind, even though we were the last ones there on a Sunday night before they closed. Authentic ambiance inside the taqueria as they have nice artwork on the wall. A lot of tables for dine in options as well. Overall, great experience. I wouldn't be fooled by the three star review if you truly appreciate local authentic taquerias!

The sign of a good Mexican restaurant: the flavor of their beans. Ofelia's does not disappoint. Frijoles are delicious. Good flavor and no oilThe sign of a great Mexican restaurant: they make their own tortillas. Ofelia's does! They are hot, fresh and delicious Plates are generous in size. We both had breakfast plates. Aqua Fresca are freshly made and just the right sweetnessLarge parking lot as they are in a shopping mallService was fast and the ladies working this morning were all really nice.

The service wasn't very good. The food is very expensive and you have to pay for chips if your ordering to go. If you want salsa with you chips you have to pay for that too. I got the albondigas soup and the amount of rice they give you is not enough for the soup. It was the size a salsa container. The location of the restaurant is a bad area. Don't go there alone. Be safe.

I ask for chilaquiles. Cashier said that's our special. Sign said $14 dollars. But then charge me $21 dollars. Then I get the food. The carne azada has lots of fat as seen on the pics. And the chilaquiles are crunchy. I ask for my money. The lady was super rude. This is the first time in my life I asked for my money. This place is a scam too expensive. Bad quality and bad attitude

These are the rudest group of waitresses I have ever seen. Because they don't know how to do their job they caused a big huge seen over a $3.00 coke but couldn't explain what the problem was. Instead got rude and nasty. The only good thing this restaurant has is good Nachos the lost two great customers over their own stupidity. The only thing we order are nachos because it's the only good item they serve...My rating is ZERO. AND ALL OVER a $3.00 soda they didn't charge plus for dumbasses...
