The market is great and we love getting meat from the deli section. Don't sleep on the restaurant portion though--that food is 🔥! The staff has always been helpful and willing to answer questions. After your meal get a paleta or other treat from the snack shop area.

This place is amazing. That only is the food authentic but they have an amazing selection of Mexican groceries. I especially enjoyed looking at all the spices and dried peppers. I should have taken a picture of my food before I started but it looks so good I forgot to. I had the burrito with carnitas. The picture here is just half of one. I couldn't recommend this place enough. My only regret is that I don't live closer.

We love their seasoned taco meat!! We won’t go back to burger with seasoning packets.. it’s inexpensive, and they also have so many neat foods to try. It’s not a restaurant but a grocery store.
Parking: Down the street there’s a parking lot, but also paid street parking. Enough parking for that area.

I visit LaPlacita on the regular, and I'm always satisfied. I would give 5 stars for the food as well. However, there are occasional inconsistencies. For instance, most times, the carnitas are tender and juicy. Once in a great while, they're stringy and not as tender. It's most likely that a lower quality chunk of pork came from their supplier. The flavor and seasonings are always great. I highly recommend Tortas, burritos, and sopa's. Chicken or carnitas are my goto. The steak tacos are delicious, too. You will see me there again soon.

The food was delicious and I will go back and refer friends and family. Service was good. Price are the only thing I can think of a little expensive. Variety and quality of products. I enjoyed the meal.
Tacos were really good! Beans and rice were great as well! Will definitely go back again. This is a market that is also a restaurant. Go in and to the left side to order.

I absolutely love their Taqueria as well as their grocery store. They are also the only ones I have found that serve Birria tacos they way I love. I love their Al Pastor and Carne Asada from their meat department.

The food was okay but the service was not. We waited for 45 minutes to have our food served. The male person who took our order was not friendly at all. Other tables who arrived after us got their food almost immediately when we waited 45 min to be served. I will not be returning.
