“Really good food and really great service ?? the owners are really nice , they have tables, tent, and chairs available- food is delicious - me and my girlfriend are definitely coming back- they treated us very nicely 10/10 all around ! I recommend the tacos tortilla Hecha Mano!“

“Strawberry margarita was delicious… asked if they could make a Torta if I ordered the chicken milenesa & they did. Super delicious!“

“It is a good place to eat this type of food, however they lack seasoning in the case of red rice, it has no flavor. I tried shrimp with garlic mojo and it tasted pretty good, they were just a little too salty.
In general they have good flavor“

“La tiendita muy buena comida y mas los tocos que son mi favoritos se los recomiendo“

“WarningWell for starters you need to know that the prices on their menu are not accurate!!They are higher than what they are and due to our great inflation that we are going thru.Soo please ask the waiters for the updated price.Now for the foodMmm... i can say that it has flavor and fresh homemade Tortillas. I order the Molcajete Mixto and it was almost perfect. The flavors and seasoning were on point tho it was a little bit spicy on the salsa Verde. As for the meat, the slices are too thin for the price of the Molcajete. I wasn't happy about that at all. I hope that the owners read this and rectified it. I have to give props because i can eat alot of their Tortillas by dipping on the molcajete ?.The Fish Taco was very good and their Fish Ceviche had alot of lemon juice on it and that to me was on point. As for the other tostada it lack some season and it needed more octopus.I have to say that i will come back and try something else from their menu!This place was Yummy For My Tummy ???

Kid-friendliness: They have a very small kid menu option

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair is able to go thru the main door. There's room around the table to move around. I believe that the men's restroom will not be wheel chair accessible.But don't quote me on that“

“We stopped by here on the way back from LA, Tacos were 10/10, the pineapple on the Al Pastor was a good touch! Fries were super good as well as the burrito. They never cheap out on extras to pair with the food. Would drive from the Bay to visit again.“

“El Jardin in Turlock is truly a gem that never disappoints! The ambiance is enchanting, featuring charming houses transformed into a delightful restaurant, with stunning flowers adorning the patio and walkways. The food is consistently delicious, and the friendly staff make every visit special. This spot has become a favorite of mine, and I’ve introduced many friends to its hidden charm.

I usually order the chicken fajitas, paired with a refreshing water. Every time, the meal is cooked to perfection, making it a perfect choice after indulging in their amazing chips, salsa, and bean dip. The salsa here is my absolute favorite—it's a must-try! I’ve spent many memorable Mother’s Days at El Jardin, and each visit just reaffirms why this place holds a special place in my heart. Highly recommend!“

“la mejor panadería local personal y servicio amable tienen una amplia variedad de pan y sin mencionar café caliente, tortas, gelatina y flan . Con música alegre y empleados cantando 🤗🎤 me encanta venir aquí.“

“The food was delicious.I had a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend these tacos to others.“

“Muy rica comida, lugar increíble 😋“

“Bought: 3 tacos asada, no onions, no cilantro (yes, I know... blasphemy!) Short Version: "Par" tacos that improved to "good" after applying lemon, for good price. Long Review: Tortillas on the tacos are on the smaller side of normal, doubled up as usual, and has a corn-ier flavor. Meat is finely chopped, and tastes alright on its own, with occasional chunks of fat blended in (which could be a plus or a minus, depending on your tastes. See picture). Sauce on its own is alright, and moderately spicey. The portion is a dollup in the middle (see picture). I feel like the tacos with more sauce were better, so I'm inclined to suggest to the owner to slightly increase the amount on the tacos. However, it would also make them a bit spicier, so might turn off more sensitive customers. (Keep in mind, this is without cilantro or onions) On my first taco, I tried it unaltered and had nothing particularly positive or negative to say. It was ok, if a bit on the bland side for what I would expect. For my second taco, I grabbed a slightly saucier one and this time generously applied lemon to it. This taco was much better, really livened it up. I still am not sure I would put it at the best of the best, but for $1.50, I was pretty happy. For the third, I added the jalapeno into the mix, and liked the additional kick, but it had less of the lemon juice (used much on #2) and salsa, and that flavor didn't come out quite as much. Overall, about even with #2. Two lemons would have been a good idea. Service was part, although truck operator (owner?) acted a little odd (anxious? Confused? Suspicious?) About me taking pictures and such. Seemed ok after I explained it was for Google. I didn't use the radishes. No comment on any other menu items (burritos, quesadillas, etc), because I didn't buy them.“

“Best tacos in Napa by far !“

“Best taco truck in the world. The make the best Mexican dishes very friendly staff I love going there it’s always a blast.“

“they have really good burritos de asada.“

“I go to phantoms probably more than I should. But we love this truck! One of the best ones in this little town. The tacos are amazing! ❤️“

“If I can say one thing about Authentic Street Taco (AST), it would be that THEY DELIVERED. Literally and figuratively. We absolutely over ordered and we could not be happier about it. AST was our end of the night caterer (Wedding on 12/21/24, for reference). We chose to have the food dropped off & set it up in buffet style. There were no unhappy guests & bonus, what we took home, we enjoyed the next night! As a matter of fact, we had some leftover quesadillas (don't know how that happened), so we froze them & later threw into an air fryer & OMG it was amazing. Needless to say, we HIGHLY recommend. Excellent food, excellent communication, & excellent service. Thank you, Authentic Street Taco!!“

“Outstanding authentic Mexican flavor. Tastes sooooooo good! If you like tacos (and who doesn't) you MUST try the menu item called "3-Taco Birria Pulled Beef" with cheese/lettuce/tomato. I was blown away by the rich flavor. It's served with a cup of delicious broth on the side which is great for dipping. I'm always craving this meal. Another recommended choice is the deep-fried Quesadilla with marinated Birria pulled beef. This one has fresh veggies on the inside and is layered with a rich, tasty cheese on the outside. I can't stay away from this place!!!“

“Delious hamburgers and fries. They are at least a 1/2 lb burgers! Always good....ate there today! So good!“

“Great food, good-sized portions. Many other hispanic items in this little tortilla shop. I was working in the area 9 years ago and ate there every day for 6 weeks. I just happened to have to be in that part of California recently and I just had to drive a little out of my way to eat there again. Worth the stop. Mmmm chile verde!“

“The food is absolutely delicious. The young lady that took me order was very patient with me, even though I only like certain things. They let me order exactly what I wanted and how I wanted it. It was one of the best burritos, I've had in a long time. I've been buying burritos from a lot of different places trying to find the best place to go. J&P taquitos is at the very top of the list. They even have nachos cheese and hot cheetos fries, burritos, etc. You definitely don't want to miss out on trying them out. The only thing you will regret is not going earlier!!!“
