50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Antelope

“Its a decent stand, genuinely, the tacos are really well done and they are absolutely delicious! I would honestly recommend getting some lime and taking their avocado salsa to eat them with, really really damn good altogether.

Some notes, if you do want to go in, they only take cash or zelle, so have one of those two ready if you want to buy something.

The portions are also nice, I got 4 tacos for $12, and if you want something else on that menu it generally is within the 10-15 dollar range for an actual meal amount of food. Not a bad price considering what your getting, would fully recommend to anyone who wants some good Mexican food, even over a lot of the other local tacqueria's and Mexican restaurants.“

“Excellent authentic Mexican food. The burritos and tacos have the perfect blend of spices. This is the best Mexican restaurant in antelope CA.“

“My husband picked up a chimichanga for me Wednesday night from the Antelope location. I took a bite and oh lawd! I closed my eyes and could hear the angels singing. It was so good! This close to my house? Lucky me. No fat or gristle, so good! I'll be back.“

“We had a very friendly and helpful cashier, ordering food and eating in the restaurant was a very pleasant experience. It's still a fastfood restaurant but compared to a typical fastfood place my visit was exceptional.

Edit: I've gone a few more times since posting and it's been consistently good. Therefore I feel the need to bump up the rating. The night crew is amazing.“

“la comida hay esta deliciosa aparte todos son muy amables super recomiendo este lugar..“

“Love this place, good food!“

“Best taqueria I have had the pleasure of eating at in this area. We moved from Phoenix and have searched for good tacos. Panchito was great, the owners were very friendly.“

“This is one of my all-time favorite taquerias whenever I visit my family in Roseville. I live in Rio Vista, CA, so it’s a long drive, but it’s worth it. Their food is authentic and delicious, from their amazing tacos to their huge burritos. And their Quesabirria is simply the best. The staff is also super awesome, and I hope to meet Roberto one of these days. They never disappoint, and I give them a solid 10 out of 10.“

“Martin’s Famous Tacos has completely won me over. I was honestly a little skeptical the first time I went, but after they catered an event at my kids’ school, I decided to give them a try. I’m glad I did because now we stop by at least once a week.

If you go on Thursday, you’re in for a treat. It’s basically birria day! Their quesabirria tacos are fantastic, and the birria burritos are just as good. Their quesadillas are huge, made with fresh flour tortillas, and packed with more meat than most people can handle.

The sides are great too—the rice and beans are always on point. They have fresh radishes available and a salsa bar with plenty of options. The guacamole is excellent. You do have to purchase chips separately, but they offer both traditional corn chips and flour tortilla chips.

They don’t have fountain drinks, but they do carry a wide variety of Mexican sodas and American sodas, and I’m pretty sure they serve beer as well.

What really keeps us coming back, though, is the staff. Everyone is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Even when the dining room looks slow, they’re working hard because the place stays busy. You order at the counter, but they bring the food out to your table, check on you, and keep the dining area clean. Customers are encouraged to bus their own tables, which is a small thing considering the great service they provide.

Great food, generous portions, fair prices, and genuinely kind people. Martin’s Famous Tacos has become a regular stop for my family, and I highly recommend giving them a try.“

“Excellent service too!!!!“

“The tacos are amazing!! Great drinks too!“

“Very authentic Mexican food. They had music playing and nice decor. I loved the seafood Taco I ordered it had so much shrimp in it and avocado. It was delicious. So was the street corn that I got. Every one in my party was very happy with their food. We will be back!“

“just had the Fajitas Combo with Steak, Chicken & Shrimp. Great Value and absolutely delicious! Very generous portions. Comes with Rice & Beans also“

“The food there is excellent, great customer service 👍😀“

“I always feel like I was in Mexico!“

“Excellent food, excellent service, priced just right, clean. I’m there at least once a week!“

“First and foremost, the customer service is amazing. thanks to Jenny that she takes care of everything with a genuine smile. She Special .!!! food was great, aguas frescas ( melon ) was delicious and the right amount of sweetness. I'm definitely going to be a regular at this place. !!!“

“Food was delicious!! Smaller restaurant but was still able to accommodate a party of 10 for a birthday party!! They do charge for chips and salsa which is different, but well worth it. I had the fish tacos and they were some of the best ive had. The ceviche was phenomenal as well. Our server did a good job with being there when we needed her and didnt hover or rush us which was really nice.“

“I have experienced A LOT of carne Asada in my life and R Vida Cantina is the most tender. Great experience, great atmosphere, lovely service and amazing people!!!“

“First time great food from out of town enjoyed it.“

“The food and service here are fantastic! Everything is packed with flavor, and I always enjoy coming back. My only note is that if you’re expecting a typical super burrito size, it’s a bit smaller than you might anticipate. For the price, I wish it were a bit more filled. Still, a great spot overall!“

“Generous portions, perfectly cooked shrimp, and flavors that hit every note, pure magic! This restaurant is my mom's favorite (she and her bestie are regulars), and I was lucky enough to catch them before they left so I could place a to-go order. My go-to test at any Mexican restaurant is the Camarones al Mojo de Ajo (garlic butter shrimp), and I was thrilled to see it on the menu here. Ordering takeout is always a gamble since you're not at the restaurant if something isn't right but I believe quality should be consistent whether dining in or taking food to go. Thankfully, this place delivered in every way. The shrimp were succulent, large, not skimpy, and cooked perfectly. The garlic butter was rich and flavorful without being overpowering, and the sautéed onions balanced it all out. Even the refried beans stood out (something many places surprisingly get wrong). The rice was fairly standard...on the drier side but when mixed with the beans and that delicious garlic butter from the shrimp, it turned into a whole new level of flavor. That's how I made my burritos (that's how I eat this plate, I have to wrap it all up in a flour tortilla. Let me tell you, it was absolute magic! Portions were generous, I could tell the meal was thoughtfully prepared, and every bite was pure satisfaction. The only downside was the styrofoam packaging (I'm not a fan of that), but it didn't take away from how incredible the food itself was. This restaurant easily earns my seal of approval. I'll definitely be ordering from here again because when I say the food was amazing with a capital A, I mean it!“

“Delicious and authentic food!“

“Great food, friendly staff great atmosphere“

“First time eating there today. Local people recommended this restaurant. Great service, Delicious food!!!!! Will definitely be back!!!“

“I’m so lucky to live near this place. The staff is always friendly and really nice. The food comes out quick. It’s DELICIOUS. And the prices are reasonable. If you’re in a budget you can get tacos and fill yourself up and be completely satiated for under 20 bucks. I usually only get two, so it’s under $10. Don’t sleep on the shrimp tacos 👌👌👌

Ps they have a nice outside seating area, and are dog friendly“

“One of our favorites! Always a good time and good food… and I love the watermelon margarita- great on a hot day.“

“We absolutely love Zocalos & our favorite server is Kendyl! He always goes above & beyond in every way. We will request him every time. The food is incredible & the margaritas are sooooo good that we crave them.“

“I loved it!! So good!!! Thanks to this beautiful couple Toby and Jack!! Always take me to the best burrito shop“

“just had the Fajitas Combo with Steak, Chicken & Shrimp. Great Value and absolutely delicious! Very generous portions. Comes with Rice & Beans also“

“Best in town“

“We have been searching high and low for excellent Mexican food and we finally found it with Taqueria Roberto Jr!! The food was flavorful, the meats were well cooked and well seasoned. The crispy tacos were DELICIOUS! Often, taqueria food can be too heavy, but this food tasted super fresh! We were a bit disappointed that we requested sides of salsa with our delivery meal and did not receive any, but honestly, the meal was so superb that it made up for it. We will definitely order again!“

“There are many weekend menudos from Greater Sacramento to my home in El Dorado county, but Hermanos is the clear #1. See the chile de arbol oil tucked in the back left? It elevates the broth to a whole new level. Once you’ve had theirs, you’ll be ruined on menudos elsewhere. I make this stuff at home, and when I’m too lazy - this is my go-to. Also, you won’t find tripa or buche tacos that are better in a restaurant for 100 miles“

“Excellent, authentic Mexican food. Arguably the most popular taqueria in the area. Always busy.

Ordered a wet (green) jumbo burrito with pollo asada. Massive burrito. Ingredients tasted fresh. Wet sauce had great flavor. The chips at the salsa bar taste fresh and light. Wide variety of delicious salsa.

Service was kind and quick. Vibe is traditional, authentic taqueria.“

“Everything met fairly standard expectations for a sit down Mexican restaurant.
Got the Jumbo Burrito, Al Pastor. This is a new favorite spot but unfortunately not close to where I live. Great portions and great flavor for the price. What more can you ask for? I came because I saw a review that it’s al pastor cooked legit off the trompo. I believe it, but did not confirm.

These days with street food prices at almost the same rate, might as well go somewhere that’s regulated, food safe, and provides nice service and atmosphere. $13.99 before tax for jumbo super burrito.“

“best ever, people, food, patio.“

“The awesome mangonadas, homemade ice cream and fast and friendly service.“

“I was a little apprehensive entering a restaurant that was empty at lunchtime but since it was close to work, decided to give this a try. Ordered a chicken burrito and a drink. The meat was good along with the rice and beans but like all plain burritos, it can't be eaten without smothering it in salsa since taquerias never include lettuce or shredded cabbage and this is where the issue was. The salsa was just not that special and lacked the kind of kick and freshness that I expect. There is no salsa and chip bar either.“

“Great food! love the Pozole and the enchiladas! super friendly staff!! :D“

“Fantastic food, great food match wine/sake list (and a sake sommelier) fi you are an oyster, sushi, ceviche fan, this is the spot.“

“Their truck has came to my apartments a couple times. The first time I bought food for my whole household and it was incredible! So naturally when they came again today I had to buy something. The shrimp tacos were so good! They had so much flavor and the shrimp was cooked to perfection. The salsa complemented them perfectly! The staff were super friendly too! Overall, a great experience!“

“The Menudo was Fresh And the hand made tortillas made this day the best!!!
Menudo for me is a specialty item that I hold close to my heart and the mailed it!! Along with their self service salsa bar my dining experience and food was superb. The best and most authentic Menudo, in my opinion, you'll find in the Sacramento area. Try it on a Sunday or Saturday and find out. Also their Mojarr Frita al la Mexicana is fabulous 😍. Get some.“

“Wife and I finally stopped in today and wow was it delicious!! She had the super carne burrito and I had the carne plate. The tortillas where so fresh, beans were like no other I've had and the portion size was perfect. Salsas were great along with friendly service. We are definitely coming back.“

“We were just looking for something for a late lunch in the area and did not expect how good this was going to be. The spinach enchiladas were just one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten. Fresh, lovely chewy corn tortillas and super tasty sauce, everything inside (spinach, mushrooms, corn, cheese) cooked perfectly, with great acidic zip from a pile of pickled onions. My sister loved her seafood tacos, which looked seriously loaded and good. The waitress was friendly and attentive without being obtrusive, and she even offered us more black bean dip for the tortilla chips when we praised it (beautiful umami bomb like bacon fat and black bean together at last). This was just what we needed to pick us up. Thank you, Carmelita’s! (One caveat: the bathroom could be cleaner.)“

“everything i have had here is delicious Nd authentic. keeping me coming back time after time. highly recommend if in the area. fair oaks ,ca“

“Fun relaxing good energy great vibes and great food and drinks“

“We visited Tres Rios by word of mouth and people telling us how great the food is. Stopped in today the food is excellent, service and atmosphere was very delicious. The staff was very thoughtful and helpful too.“

“Had some delicious food while watching live music. Ordered a bunch of food. Everything tasted great.“
