Tacos Chapala Manteca

Tried them out today and overall the food was great. I ordered 3 tacos—2 tripa and 1 al pastor. The tripa was excellent, super flavorful and cooked just right. The al pastor was okay, nothing too special. My son got 2 tacos (asada and chicken) and both were fire!

We also tried the birria ramen, and that was extraordinary—definitely a highlight. On the flip side, the chorizo taco wasn’t great, kind of a miss. The flauta order was tasty though, no complaints there.

I also really liked that they have a salsa bar with a nice variety. The guacamole salsa tasted like it was close to expiring, but all the other salsas were really good.

Wowwwww. Not sure what was best here because it was all amazing - the birria ramen was insane, as was their chili rellano, and keto taco all so insanely good. Great service too and very clean along with a fresh salsa bar. Si por favor.

The quesabirria is delicious. Al pastor tacos were fantastic. Everyone loved the chile relleno as well

First thing I noticed was the great service. The people were friendly. They quickly turned over the dirty tables. Which was important because there was a steady stream of people coming in.
I had the chicken nacho which were good. Next time I will have the tacos. Not because the nachos were bad, but because watching other peoples food come out the tacos looked that good. My husband had the carne asada plate. I was so good I couldnt even get a photo before he started to devour it. We will definitely be back.

Great service and tasty food overall. The staff were super friendly and the atmosphere was casual. The tacos had good fillings, but the tortillas had a strange taste that threw things off a bit. Everything’s served on paper plates with plastic utensils—clean, but feels wasteful for dine-in. Still, a solid spot for a casual meal.

They don’t give you water - as in they won’t provide a cup to drink water. Have to pay.

Veggie burrito was mostly just rice. Birria plate was mid, meat was well made though.

Plastic utensils and paper plate. Just seems wasteful for a sit in restaurant.

Then they started vacuuming at 8:40pm with about 5 tables of people. We couldn’t help but chuckle at the scene.

The Best Shrimp Tacos Rancheros!!!

Great food. Friendly staff.

The food is good and fresh and actually spicy! I think the AC is broken so that’s the only reason I put less stars for the atmosphere. It’s 100 today so yeah it’s hot and I feel bad for the workers. 10/10 would recommend
