“the pozole is off the hook burritos are great specialty dishes are awesome“

“Love this place, good food!“

“Wow it's been 20 yrs. Since my dad passed. We no longer have Luis's which I'm sry I grew up with and loved. So we go for some authentic mexican. We had crispy beef tacos, cheese enchiladas. And 3 enchilads beef. Chicken and cheese. It was just awful. Tortillas were store bought and extra charge, sauce and salsa for chips tasted like out of a jar or can. Beans were good.Waiter was surly felt not one smile beneath that mask.(I saw the black girl's comment) We are white if that helps) Service was fast. Ambiance is great but I was just really cravin some good authentic mexican. We won't be back.left most of our food on the plate. $79.00 for 3 of us.“

“Excellent service too!!!!“

“The food there is excellent, great customer service 👍😀“

“Our group of eight was searching for a sit-down Mexican restaurant with an open kitchen after 9 PM and found Jalapeños. We decided to give it a try, and the service was excellent—helpful and attentive staff. I sampled four different tacos, all of which were delicious, and the margaritas were fresh and flavorful. Overall, we had a great time, and I’d consider returning to explore more of the menu.“

“Great food and excellent customer service.“

“loved the menudo like the cute little design“

“Amazing food (and great prices!)“

“I’ve been to El Cantaro in Monterey about 10 times! I’m looking forward to going to the Sacramento version of this restaurant today! That has some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. I love the fact that it doesn’t say vegan plant-based and all that stuff everywhere. It’s basically just a Mexican restaurant that happens to be Vegan. Can’t wait to come and visit!“

“I’ve been lucky enough to have seen this taqueria from the first day they opened, in Campbell, Ca. which was the original location prior to moving to the Sacramento area. The food is prepared by a family who pours just the right amount of love into each dish. For me, I fell in love with the food the first day, then I fell in love with the family. Mom, Dad, Sons, and Sister(their daughter always called me brother and I called her sister❤️) all knew me by first name basis. I’d take orders from the business located in our complex and order 10 burritos at a time and always left with a free burrito for myself. I gained over 50lbs eating their food because it was the best around. Over the past 25-30years they’ve been in business, I’ve made the trek to Sacramento to see the family and eat their amazing food multiple times. Stop in and try the carne asada super burrito! -Frank aka Ponchito“

“Absolute delicious food! Awesome fast and friendly service. Everytime we go there, they make us feel like part of the family.“

“This place is ABSOLUTELY Amazing! Abel waited our table and the chef was awesome. I have not had food made to this quality in quite some time. This is by far one of the best Mexican Restaurants I have ever been to. The neet was flavorful, tender, juicy, and every dish was served with aesthetic appeal.“

“I always feel like I was in Mexico!“

“Excellent food, excellent service, priced just right, clean. I’m there at least once a week!“

“La Esperanza, thank you for all that you do to craft togetherness and bring joy to the community. I am thankful to have gotten to try such a great selection of delicious and affordable food served by the kind people who work here. Sacramento is lucky to have such a treasure like La Esperanza nested on 5028 Franklin Blvd.“

“The food and service here are fantastic! Everything is packed with flavor, and I always enjoy coming back. My only note is that if you’re expecting a typical super burrito size, it’s a bit smaller than you might anticipate. For the price, I wish it were a bit more filled. Still, a great spot overall!“

“I’m so lucky to live near this place. The staff is always friendly and really nice. The food comes out quick. It’s DELICIOUS. And the prices are reasonable. If you’re in a budget you can get tacos and fill yourself up and be completely satiated for under 20 bucks. I usually only get two, so it’s under $10. Don’t sleep on the shrimp tacos 👌👌👌

Ps they have a nice outside seating area, and are dog friendly“

“Great enchiladas and craft cocktails.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“I love this place. Come over and decide for yourself. Anthony Bourdain would want you to.“

“just had the Fajitas Combo with Steak, Chicken & Shrimp. Great Value and absolutely delicious! Very generous portions. Comes with Rice & Beans also“

“Great place to eat some authentic Latino food! plus the service is great and so welcoming. Definitely a place to go to.“

“The Churros outside are amazing! Crispy, fluffy, sweet, savory and delicious 😋. These churros are made right in front of you, fresh and ready to eat. You get your choice of filling which include chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, caramel and cream. We got the caramel filled and cream filled churro, both were delicious but my favorite was the cream. Will be definitely be going back here to try the chocolate and strawberry filled churros next!“

“I was next door at the tax office and decided to try Agave mexican restaurant for the first time. I'm was extremely pleased with the authentic food . it was so delicious. home made salsa and horchata. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to my friends and family.“

“We had a wonderful dinner with family and friends! Large space seating and comfortable atmosphere. The service was excellent and the food very good!
Favorites were the chili Colorado and carnitas plate! We really enjoyed our dining experience.
They also serve exceptional iced tea!!“

“My family and I have had the most wonderful experiences at Vallejo's. The atmosphere for dining is one of the best. The staff are so kind, and the owners go out of their way to speak to their customers. When my father passed away in 2018, the Vallejo's family surprised us with catering at his funeral. They fed over 500 people, and didn't charge our family one penny for the food. They have also catered for various family functions, including graduation events. The food is amazing and is definitely worth trying.“

“Great food! love the Pozole and the enchiladas! super friendly staff!! :D“

“Stopped there for breakfast and had a breakfast burrito loaded with ham,eggs,bean,cheese and a toasted flour tortilla. My significant other had 2 chicken taco's with rice and a squirrel. the condiment bar had every sauce you could think of. The restaurant was spotless and we were great and served in very short order. We both thoroughly enjoyed are meal and will definitely return in the near future!!!“

“Everything is delicious molcajete is very delicious camarones ala diabla Menudo tacos homemade tortillas“

“The Super Burritos are awesome. The best Burrito I've had in the Sacramento Area! The prices are Great too! Why pay over $20 for 1 tasteless Burrito with watery beans from Overpriced SuperTaco when you can practically buy 2 super Burritos from Tonys Tacos that taste a 1000 times better? So glad I found this place.“

“Had some delicious food while watching live music. Ordered a bunch of food. Everything tasted great.“

“Pupusa Central is amazing! My favorite pupusa is the pupusa con birria - it's absolutely delicious. The prices are super affordable, but the food is top-notch. The ambience reminds me of home: simple, cozy, and family-owned, which makes it even more special.
The horchata salvadoreña is incredible too - it tastes just like champurrado, rich and comforting. The customer service is always so kind and welcoming; you can tell the people here are hardworking and genuinely care about their customers.
I love this place and definitely recommend it to anyone craving authentic, flavorful food at a great price.“

“Just ordered a carne asada torta, its hella bomb. It has a salsa in it unlike any other ive tried from a taqueria! Its so yummy and flavorful <3

Update: one of the sauces is mayo and i had no idea, i never had a taqueria put mayo on a torta before!!! Im allergic to eggs a.k.a MAYO! :(“

“Muy delicioso su sazón Muy recomendado Riquísima comida“

“Chita's Taqueria feels like one of those small taco spots you’re glad you found. I stopped by hungry and the tacos came out simple, fresh, and packed with flavor. The tortillas tasted great and the fillings were generous. It’s casual, quick, and exactly the kind of place you want when a real taco craving hits.“
