21 Best Taco Restaurants in Merced

“[I first frequented this exceptional establishment on December 4 2023. Instantaneously, I was impressed with the congeniality of the staff. As far as the food is concerned, it is incomparable. I highly recommend the Supreme Carne Asada Nachos. The Munchies Box is incredible as well.]Alexander Scoggins“

“Fantabular!!! I was lurking for some tacos. My usual go to place, El Sope, wasn’t open so I decided to give this place a shot. My oh my! You guys I mean it when I say, do not sleep on this place! Try their birria tacos(quesatacos) which are like a mix of quesadilla and a taco. They’re only like $3 a piece. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Great taco shop in Merced. You can ask to have it spicy. Everything tasted good you won’t regret it! Not dry not over spiced and not over salted. Waiting time was fast.

Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options. I haven’t tried it though.“

“All the food is really good. They have fast service.“

“This is one of the better taco trucks on this side of Merced. Food is not overpriced and is quality and fresh hot. Love the tortas and tacos from this place. They have big tortas and if you have a big appetite you will definitely enjoy this spot. Would definitely recommend stopping by if your in the area.

Parking: You just pull up in front of the truck at the gas station to park.“

“Chavez Tacos is a hidden gem right off Highway 99, super easy to find near the gas stations. Don’t let the simple location fool you—this place serves up some of the best tacos I’ve had in a long time. The flavors are authentic, the ingredients are fresh, and the portions are generous. It’s the perfect spot for a quick and tasty meal on the go. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!“

“Los mejores tacos de birria que he probado“

“This is literally my favorite taco truck in Merced. You can't beat hand made corn tortillas or gorditas. My favorite go to order is the chicharonne and chorizo gorditas. The sopes are good too. Heck you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.“

“The way they grilled cheese on the supreme tacos is like no other spot around. That's the kind of stuff you only see at high end restaurants.“

“Food is great and not expensive“

“I love this taco truck, they are super kind and very friendly and always prepare food quickly and correctly. I love the cheese enchilada plate as well as their bean and cheese burritos and veggie burritos. It’s a staple for me and my daughter to eat there at least once a week when I don’t feel like cooking.

Vegetarian options: I get bean and cheese burritos, veggie burritos, and cheese enchiladas but I realize the beans might have lard, however you could easily ask for all rice on the enchilada plate or get a cheese quesadilla.

Kid-friendliness: They always give my daughter extra lemons with her burrito (it’s a phase she’s going through lol) but other places have charged me extra for the lemons but they never do and they’re always so nice“

“Parking: My husband and I recently moved here to Merced. We had stopped at Maria Taco shop because they are open late (24hrs). I can not get my husband to eat anywhere else as of yet, and it's been a couple of months. He is the whitest Mexican I've ever known..lol.. just playing, although what I say about everything else is true. Thank you, Maria Taco Shop. You all are awesome, hands down“

“do there surveys and u will eat for free. plus there food is the business :)“

“I had order 2 bacon cheese burgers, 6 regular tacos, and a meat burito by itself. Food was what was expected and though food took a bit longer the staff by window was very kind and apoligize for the wait.

I do miss the bacon cheese burger food size from back then which I believe had more meat but I may be wrong.“
