This is how I open my Carne Asada burrito. Do not believe people when they say they have Carne Asada because everything is ground beef.
And all I did was unwrap it from the aluminum foil and that’s how it was

Taqueria La Esmeralda is a small Mexican restaurant in a strip mall. The food is good, however maybe not the best in the area. They do have a generous chip bar with lots of sauces and other garnishings. I would eat here again if my favorite taco truck down the road isn't available.

We stopped at this Mexican restaurant, and what a great choice! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was festive and full of authentic touches colorful murals, tile work, flags, and beautiful displays of food that made it easy to see and choose what looked good.
The food did not disappoint. The enchiladas and birria tacos were absolutely delicious, and I had the chicken flautas, which were fabulous. Everything tasted like a true home-cooked meal. The chips and salsa were fresh, and the salsa bar had amazing options. For dessert, we couldn’t resist the churros, and they were incredible.
The service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and checked on us multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed.
Overall, this was a wonderful dining experience excellent food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

Sooooo good! Delicious, flavorful, hearty... I could go on and on. The Saturday Baja fish taco plate was generously proportioned and balanced, and the quesabirrilla tacos hit the spot for my husband. He couldn't stop raving about the flavor and the consomme. Great to see a small place like this busy, and did I mention great prices and great service?!

🌮 Taco Truck Gem in Sonora! 🌮 If you haven’t tried Taqueria Arandas, you’re seriously missing out. This taco truck, run by the folks behind Taqueria La Esmeralda, is a pristine, stainless steel beauty parked right next to Grocery Outlet in Sonora — and it’s serving up some of the best tacos around.
We tried the Quesabirria tacos, shrimp tacos, fish tacos, and the chile relleno burrito. Every single bite was bursting with flavor, and the consomé was the perfect dip to complement the crispy, cheesy goodness of the Quesabirria.
🌟 Super clean 🌟 Friendly service 🌟 Loaded with delicious options
Support local and treat yourself — go try Taqueria Arandas today! You won’t regret it.
My husband and I ate here on July 16 2025 purchased their Esmeralda Burritos which were full of fat, we had horrible food poisoning immense stomach problems that evening and for hrs into the next day, filthy place, if you don’t want the same pass on this dump, they are getting reported to the Tuolumne County health environmental department.

FREE CHIPS AND SALSA BAR. I would like to start by saying I will not be able to convey just how good this place was in a review. But holy moly mother molasses did I enjoy eating at this local restaurant. I would give more stars if it let me ! We were pleasantly greeted with a bright and fun atmosphere upon entering. The staff was friendly and the prices looked extremely reasonable. Once we ordered they let us know they have a FREE chips and salsa bar I mean come on. I would have paid any amount of money for how good my food was and it was still so cheap. U need to try this place for yourself I can’t use words to describe how much I liked this food.
Authentic so far..
