Parking: The only issue I find with parking is that it's shared parking with the marval and the dentist next to it“

“Listen, I am picky when it comes to Mexican food. My grandma‘s set the bar high. And there are two specific dishes that I always order at a new restaurant, and that is Caldo de Res and Chile Rellenos…these are basic dishes but I’m beyond snobby when it comes to them. If they mess these up then I will never go back. Lupita’s Homestyle Cocina exceeded my expectations. The chile relleno was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. Lupitas only cooks caldo de res on Thursdays and it just so happened to be a Thursday when I ordered. The Caldo de Res tasted like home. I know she used the beef bones to make the broth because you can taste the oils. It was cooked to perfection with big chopped vegetables and nice sized chunks of beef. We also ordered the pick 3 and got Chile relleno, chicken enchilada, and a chicken chimichanga. It came with a nice sized helping of beans and rice. I got a monster burrito with beef and it was no joke! HUGE burrito and it had everything I wanted in a burrito (beef, whole beans, rice, cheese, guacamole, and pico de gallo. The sour cream was on the side and it was served with your choice of red or green sauce over it. Bomb. I got a flan for desert and oh my goodness. I seriously didn’t expect much because the food was good enough. But dang, that flan was spectacular. The perfect consistency and the Carmel top of the flan was so creamy and smooth. It didn’t have that burnt taste that a lot of flans have. All in all, I was impressed by every dish. I would say that the refried beans were a bit salty, but the Mexican rice more than made up for that. I took time to write this because it deserves praise and hopefully gains more business as its location is tucked away behind the KFC on Oakdale road.“

“We ordered the tripas tacos and the asada torta.
The tacos were top tier, delicious in every way conceivable, I'd give them a 9/10.
The torta was good, the meat was delicious and was the star of the show. The bread left something to be desired. Overall an average torta.
Great place, highly recommend the tacos.“

“We had a fairly large order of family packs for a party. When we got home to Ripon, we found a tray of chicken taquitos was accidentally left out. Franky was kind enough to deliver them to us because our party was starting. The food is great and they are the best! Thanks again!“

“really good service and the food and drinks are fire“

The pancakes were fluffy and wonderful.
The ranhero eggs delish
and the hash-browns nice too!“

“I only came here because Yelp told me these are the best tacos in Modesto. They are not. But the people are cool. Burrito and hot dog was damn delicious. Just not the best tacos in Modesto. And I wouldn’t order the wings again either. But I would go back, because the customer service was that good.“

“Her Favorite Restaurant .. Always💯“

“The was was good and it's so pretty inside and out.“

“Delicious food, friendly service, reasonable prices, pleasant atmosphere 🌷🙏💜“

“Solid tacos. Tried the carnitas and pollo. Love that the offer $1.00 tacos on Tuesdays and Thursdays! Needed some grilled jalapeños and sliced radishes. Wish they had some outdoor tables to eat there.“

“I thought that the store was one of those run down stores, but was really delighted to try it out! $2.50 for a jelly-filled donut, which is the highest price of any single donut, was really worth it for my tight budget, even as a brief trip! If you need a quick and cheap breakfast, a drink and donut for around $5.00 is what to expect here! If someone of this store notices though, I could also prep up a new graphic icon for Salida Donuts! Just let me know. 😉“

“This was a special place for my mama and her mama.. every year they would come to this restaurant for Nanas birthday. When she passed a few years ago, we continued to come here for Nanas' birthday. My mama loved this place, and unfortunately, she passed prematurely (Feb 25th 2025) so now my dad and I come here, and it is a bittersweet experience every time we walk through the door I can still see my mama at the table we sat at to enjoy our food.
Today's visit was just as great. My anemia gets the best of me at times, and I was telling my dad that I was super cold and without hesitation, the kind lady that took our order turned the fans off. It's little things like that that will keep us coming back.“

“Today was the first time I ate here I thought I would try it out and I’m glad I did. The food was amazing. The staff was very pleasant, & the establishment was very clean as well. I ordered a Chile Rellano & a burrito, my sister order a tamale, & the flautas patter. I am always skeptical trying new places but I will keep coming back as the consistency of the food and the taste was just what I like. Thank you for the amazing experience“

“Good tacos and people carnitas y cuero“

“Awesome dollar carnitas tacos !!!“

“Even if I didn't live right down the street, I would still drive the way across town for this place. Not only are the tacos that I get extremely flavorful and juicy, the salsa is the PERFECT level of spice. The employees are incredibly sweet, and you can tell they enjoy what they do. Here almost every day getting my tacos. I cant recommend it enough. Thank you!!!!!!“

“The service was excellent!“

“Today we had a retirement party at La Parilla with about 35 people. It went flawless! The staff was super helpful and kind. They food was great. Everything was perfect and everyone had a great time. The price point was perfect too. It exceeded my expectations! Thanks La Parilla!!“

“I miss Baja Fresh, the Black Salsa still does it for me. The Burrito I got was good too :) But it's all about the Salsa there for me. I wish there were more of these. Service at this location was excellent and they were super friendly.“

“First time visiting Jalapeño restaurant and I was not disappointed. From the moment I walked in I received a warm welcome and helpful service. We ordered the “big nachos” with shredded chicken. I wish I could share how wonderfully they were presented, however, my husband and I just dived in. Every bit was great.

Music was nice and over all really enjoyed the atmosphere. Thank you to all the staff and definitely will be back soon. 😊“

“We stopped by to do something near by and decided to give them a try. Will definitely be back. Price was $30 and we had tons of food and two aguas frescas. We were happy with the value and flavor. Staff was friendly and accomplished and went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and appreciated. Flavors were very good and food was fresh. Free chips!“

“they have really good burritos de asada.“

“Delicious Authentic Mexican Food ?. Taste Like Good Home Cooking From Grandma's Kitchen ?. They are very generous with their portions as well and make everything so fresh! It's definitely a must try!

“I called to order some tamales for a small dinner party and from the first call my experience was great. Great service and help placing an order. The tamales arrived hit and so fresh. The delivery guy was so kind. We ordered 7 pork, 7 chicken and 4 cheese tamales. They were all delicious but the cheese was the best I have ever had. Great value for the money. I will absolutely be coming back for more!“

“I try to come here as often as I can. The food is great and the pay is worth it and most of all they are not greedy with the serving size. If you're looking for fresh tortillas here is the spot. I can go on and on just try it for your self.“
