Amazing food! Best tacos in Sacramento. Owner Shane was really great to speak with. He and his food exude passion. You must try The Char Market! 🌮

Always very good Tacos, and their Nachos are very good also.

Nope don’t bother. Owner is super nice and all, but food is extremely mid (and not cheap). Ordered asada tacos and they came on barely cooked flour tortillas, with lettuce (?) and a ā€œsalsaā€ that just tastes like salad dressing. It’s not awful, the ingredients are quality, but there are about 8 other taquerias within 10-15 minutes of here that are AMAZING and authentic. This is white people food tbh.

Given the rating this place has on Google, I came here expecting a food experience. I'm not sure why people are rating average places 5 stars? This place isn't bad. It's okay. Edible. Customer service was fine. Nothing about this place is above average and would denote such a high rating. For adults, good food isn't just tasty it's refinement & sophistication. Even nachos can have levels of sophistication & qualityin the ingredients and how they're put together. I know this because I just came from Austin where they took very rustic dishes, and through development of techniques
added a layer of maturity that is hard to get unless you're a pro. This place isn't pro level. Starting with the low quality store bought over salted tortilla chips. Just sad. Then there's the grey refried beans, and the pre-grated, muli-colored costco cheese, I'd only use for kids meals. Its okay if nachos aren't sophisticated or knock my socks off. But don't charge $20 for them. And, don't pad your Google ratings!!!!!!!! Those nachos are something a busy mom makes her kids

My favorite Mexican food. Great quality! Great value! Love to order no fee with DoorDash and pick up as it's up the street. Nachos are tasty!

We had to come try after running across The Char Market on Instagram. It was a bit on the pricy side, but the uniqueness justified it. Of course we had to have the Bone Marrow Plate (mmm!) and a couple of tacos with different meats as well as the Chips and Ceviche (šŸ˜). In the end, it was way too much food for two people and was another full meal the next day!

Out of this world! Ceviche bomb, shrimp tacos bomb, steak plate so flavorfull and tender for $18 its a steal

We absolutely love this local spot. The owner is warm and remembers us. The food is mouth-wateringly outstanding! The service is excellent, as well. Besides, this little joint is ranked nationally for their remarkable tacos!

The steak was delicious. Everything else was mediocre. My buddy and I both said that we'd rather eat food truck mexican. Sides are tiny. For 25+ bucks a person you can do so much better.

Parking: The parking is a little tight. I guess it depends on when I arrived. I did arrive around 130pm.

Bone marrow plate was insane. Really good tacos too. Shrimp was my favorite.

First Time Visit…. Very small eatery, LOTs of take out orders and pick up orders….everyone seated was aware of the limited space, so we were patient, and quickly took a table as people left.
The FOOD was the reason people were there. Fantastic Quality, and we were blown away. Charred marinated steak chunks served over grilled sliced (squash ?) veggies. Side was a ball of seasoned rice, and topped with a swirl of mildly spicy sauce. Came with blackened tortillas , individually wrapped , so you could make several small burritos, or use them to wipe your plate clean, which we did with Gusto. This eatery deserves five stars because of the simplicity and superb flavors of the food. Well Done, Char ..

I have no idea where most of these people are getting their 5 star ratings from. The food is very mid and extremely overpriced. For a group of 3 our total was $130. Very small place with little to no atmosphere at all while also being unsanitary. Staff was friendly, but seemed unprofessional as they were watching boxing fights on their phone while taking our order. Would not recommend this place to anyone at all.
