21 Best Mexican Restaurants in Elk Grove

“Food was good. Complaint though about the fact they wouldn’t write us separate tickets. 😡 another way to gouge the public because they planned on us rounding up when it was $37.80 to $38 even and there was a nearly 5 dollar surcharge that they didn’t explain. Not really a good experience“

“Great, food, love the fusion of Mexican-Italian foods offered, great margaritas, great service and love the warm and friendly atmosphere. We’ve celebrated birthdays here about three, or more times and it’s always wonderful. 🥰♥️🌮🍹🍕🎂🎶🎉“

“Best Tacos I have ever had. I have had a lot of Tacos but this went way beyond my expectations. completely blown away! Thank you for a great meal!“

“Supporting local businesses is important to me, especially in this economy. I was craving a breakfast burrito and happened to come across Rafa's. Despite being a rainy and windy day, they were open and happily took my order. Given that the food is prepared in a truck, I appreciate that they're still willing to be open despite the bad weather. The burrito was ready in minutes and was absolutely delicious. The lady who took my order was extremely pleasant and patient as she took my order and allowed me to make substitutions.

Hands down one of the best breakfast burritos I've had. I encourage everyone to support local businesses and give Rafa's a try. You won't be disappointed.“

“Service is awesome, we go there at least once a month. The carnitas tacos are so delicious and loaded with real authentic carnitas. Beans and rice are choice as well!! Chile relleno reminds me of the ones in jalisco Mexico. This place is highly recommend if you love good Mexican food. The 3 item combo is the best for your money“

“The tacos were flavorful, juicy and delicious! The pulled pork taco has a smokiness to it and it gave me surprise when I took my first bite. I would come back again to try their other items as well as their bbq considering how tender and juicy their taco meats were.“

“This food is authentic and delicious. The best in the area. I have driven here all the way from Lodi. When I work here it’s a must. The shrimp cocktail, the Gorditas, the tortas , the tacos, their special salsa is so good. La mejor comida que probaran.“

“The Mix Up food truck! I ordered the kabob plate of a ribeye kabob and a lamb kabob. Mmmm, the kabobs were delicious. Big, hunky cuts of tender, flavorful meat; all grilled to perfection. The folks working the truck were fantastic. Big, fun personalities.

What initially caught my eye was the very dramatic graphic design on the truck. It looked like a vintage movie poster with a woman in Mexican traditional garb and Arab man individually both looking contemplatively into the distance. As I walked closer, I found out they were selling Arab and Mexican food with their signature dish being their famous ribeye kabob.

I ordered the kabob plate. It came with two kabobs, rice, salad,hummus and pita bread. $22. Yup, that price point may have you thinking twice but I was able to get two meals out of this plate. The kabob serving size was huge. I chose the ribeye and lamb kabobs. Chicken was the other option. They weren't stingy on the protein serving. The meats are actual cuts of filets, not ground meat. It was tender, flavorful with a great grill to it. Instead of rice, I asked for double the salad. The salad was fresh tasting and vibrant looking. The hummus was packed with a garlicky punch.“

“Best menudo in Elk Grove!! Good flavor! Soups are delicious so is the food. Gotta get there before 11 am on weekends very very busy!!“

“Great Southwest-Mexican Local chain. The use of hatch chiles in their food give it a very different taste. Portions are great as is the Salsa Bar. We are outside on their front patio.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of families.“

“I love their food! Soo good!! Every time! I’ve never even been slightly disappointed with my food from here.“

“Ohhh my GOD, Talk about delicious ? 's. The flavor, the crunch. Absolutely to die for. I love on Oregon and I can't wait to stop by again real soon. Hands down best tacos around. Very friendly staff and even better cooks. Hats off to Jim boy “

“Great dining experience! Friendly staff. Clean atmosphere. You will certainly get your monies worth!!! Be hungry!!“

“Delicious & definitely worth the money! I'm hooked on shredded chicken! 1st time I tried Taco Exxpress I had shredded chicken nachos and 2nd time shredded chicken tacos combo plate with beans & rice.... PERFECT portion size I was full & satisfied! I just might become a regular customer!“
