“A True Local Gem for Mexican Cuisine

This outstanding local Mexican restaurant is clearly a beloved staple in the community. It's always buzzing with families and locals who come not just for the food, but for the lively, welcoming atmosphere that makes every visit feel like a celebration.

The food is consistently flavorful and generously portioned—perfect for sharing or satisfying a hearty appetite. The vibrant bar area adds to the experience, offering a great spot to unwind with a drink while catching a game on one of the many screens.

One standout feature is the salsa bar, which elevates the meal with a variety of fresh, zesty options that cater to every taste. It’s a small touch that makes a big impact.

We were told that Friday and Saturday evenings are especially popular, with dinner hours drawing a packed house. That alone speaks volumes about its reputation—so plan ahead if you're heading there on the weekend!“

“I really don't want to write this review because i know what will happen so here is my story...I passed this taco truck on my way to pick up vax for my cattle at Lander's Veterinary Clinic a week ago. I was curious about the taco truck and asked the folx working at the vet clinic if they recommended the truck's food. They raved about it. Since I had cash I made the decision to stop on my way back home to buy some tacos and put them to the test...I'm kinda of a food snob.Here is what I ordered: (2) carne asada tacos, (2) al pastor, (1) lengua taco, and a (1) tripas taco to try out. I doubted they could do better than the taco places I grew up by in L.A..OMG! Shut the Front Door!!The tacos were so good that on my way back home to Oakdale, I ate most of the tacos. My husband is lucky he had two tacos leftover for his dinner. These were even better than any tacos I've had in SoCal!!It gets busy during lunch time so take a longer lunchbreak or get there early. I'm heading back soon and taking my boss and a few colleagues with me.Cash only business. Covered benches, no bathrooms, bring your baby wipes if you eat there.“

“Solid spot! After working all night and wanting a breakfast burrito while working out of town and staying in Turlock. I found this spot. Ordered a Machaca burrito and an Al Pastor tacosl. Burrito was big and very tasty. The $5 Al Pastor tacos was delicious and the meat was browned up perfectly on the flat top. I wouldn't hesitate to come back just for the tacos next time. The salsa's I tried were ok and a little different than most other taco spots. The chunky hot salsa was the best of the three I tried.“

“excellent tasting food. Friendly and super fast service“

“Welcoming atmosphere and people. Delicious, flavorful and fresh food! My favorite lunch go to place.“

Parking: Small parking lot“

“Excellent taco truck! Super tasty burritos and the birra taco with the handmade taco was sooo good!!! I really like that they serve their food with fresh cool cucumber slices, pickled red onion and lemon. The seating area was also very nice and clean. Looking forward to going back another time!“

“Came with family and friend yesterday for lunch, was a great time. Manager for respectful and understanding. Food was excelente“

“fast and friendly service. Kept our drinks full and checked on us alot.“

“This place is so, so good! Very authentic, at least from what I remember as a child in Mexico, watching and tasting the yummy pork softly boiling in a cauldron of lard. ☺️ Fresh tender sheets of cueritos come out first, then the buche, and finally the carnitas! THIS place is JUST like that- in taste -and I love it!! Service is super. The couple that owns it is very friendly. They answered all our questions (husband is on a strict diet; minding his macros n’ all) and made suggestions on menu items. Everything we’ve ordered has been amazing. We highly recommend this eatery to all our friends.“

“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!“

“The food is priced well. It's delicious and good portions.Staff is friendly and bilingual(Spanish/English)Food was served hot and quick!Thank you <3 ❤️

Kid-friendliness: Family business atmosphere.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's all flat surfaces, but, they aren't all smooth.“

“Good gggggggggggghhhhhhhh“

“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“

“Wow! Food is fresh , tasty & DELICIOUS!!!! I highly recommend!!!! Love Love this place! And everyone is so friendly!5 Stars!!!“

“Great food 👍.i definitely recommend it.“

“I just order a Asada taco and a supreme Asada burrito. By far one of the best if not the best taco spot in the Central Valley. Their prices are cheap and they are super friendly but most importantly the food was so delicious and complex in flavor super impressed“

“Bomb pastor tacos and awesome deal. Waited for the suadero, owner gave me a free one to try and he said it might need a little longer. Then he gave me another extra one to go with our order once the meet was tender, crisp and freaking delicious. Thank you G.“

“Los anchos están muy buenos“

“Food was good, had Nachos Grande. They also serve chips and salsa for while you wait. Service was great! Atmosphere was good, plenty of TV's for viewing. Great background music. The place was quiet for a bit, the more people came, then a large family of about 16 with small kids came. The noise level went up, but, that is OK. Everybody was having a good time. Including me!“

“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.“

“Really smart and nice hard-working people who are super communicative and respectful“

“The food was good. Our server was awesome, providing our party of 8 with some great ideas for our table. In the end we all decided on different plates. I got the chimichangas, they were good, though smaller than what I have had in the past. My husband had the mole. It was good. My brother in law and sister in law shared the molcajete. It was good, but a little sour.“

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

“Best tacos in Napa by far !“

“I got breakfast, red chilaquiles with eggs, but it was too spicy. It was still good it was my first time coming here. My mother n law got 3 chicken tacos (crunchy) they were good too. We did find a hair in one of our chips, but other than that everything was good.“

“Muy rica comida, lugar increíble 😋“

“Food here is delicious ! Big portions! One night I got a carne asada plate and my girlfriend got super nachos - we were so stuffed after but wanted to keep eating cuz it was so good! The staff treated us very nice , it was our first time and we’ll definitely be coming back to try “

“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.“

“Real good food! Love the selections! Good ol’ classic Turloco diner! Nice patio.“

“Our first visit at Mariachis did not disappoint us at all, rather it exceeded our expectations. As soon as we entered we were greeted by friendly staff, and we were given a huge basket of fresh tortilla chips with two dishes of homemade salsa while we figured out our orders. We ordered a classic margarita and two tacos. The tacos had a lot of flavor and they were huge. The margarita tasted fresh, and was balanced perfectly. Plus Mariachis has a great atmosphere that every Mexican restaurant should model after. We will definitely come back, and recommend Mariachis to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine in Turlock.“

“Been here a few times. Absolutely delicious ❤️ get the carne asada and pastor tacos! Delicioso!!!“

“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!!“

“Food was fantastic. Service was quick. Our food server was so nice and checked if we needed drinks before we ran out.“

“Buena atención riquísima la comida bonito ambiente familiar 💯👍👍👍💐“

“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!“

“Their food is great. It's just a hit and miss with the guy making the food he tends to be rude sometimes, especially when you pull up, and they rudely tell you that they're closed lol. They should have some sort of sign up saying that they're closed.“
