Lopez Taqueria & Liquor Reviews
I had 3 asada tacos, they're not mini street tacos! They're loaded up with meat, with onion and cilantro which is optional. Very delicious salsa, the red is more spicy and very flavorful, green also flavorful but mild! Don't judge a book by its cover! Yes, its in a liquor store, but go! Plus you can buy anything else you might want too.
Friendly staff with hard to find brands of spirits.
We tried tacos on a road trip all the way from SF to LA and Lopez taqueria was by far the best we tried. Super recommend the fish tacos, the salsa was perfection. The staff were lovely including the granny making the food. We stayed in Monterey two days and came here both days

The tacos are described as some of the best, with the food coming out quickly and the ambiance being casual and positive. The shrimp burritos are particularly praised, featuring jumbo shrimp, great rice and beans, fresh salsa, and a soft, warm tortilla. The restaurant also boasts a great selection of tequilas, including hard-to-find brands. The staff is friendly, and the convenience of the attached store makes it a popular spot for a quick bite. Customers praise the affordable and delicious tacos, burritos, and breakfast items, particularly the chorizo and bacon breakfast burritos. The chef is described as lovely, and the overall experience is simple, no-frills, and satisfying.
