This place is very dirty and sticky everywhere. I don't think we will be back.
Best counter service Mexican food in the area. Highly recommend their queso
It was grungy and filthy with a bad atmosphere. Food left on tables and on the booths. The booth has so little cushioning that when I sat I sank straight to the floor and fractured my tail bone. (I am not obese either)
The Cali breakfast burrito was nasty, genuinely terrible. I don't even have a joke for it, it was genuinely that bad. I have an awful stomach ache now.
The taquito's were good when I was a kid 10 years ago though.
We placed a last minute catering order for one of our lunch and learns for a group of 15 people - Russ & his team at Salsa Fresh were able to accommodate our requests and made the catering process so smooth! I asked if we could have the food ready 45 minutes after they opened, and not only was the food ready, but it was neatly packaged ready for me to load it in my car without any issues. The food and service here is awesome!
First thing that you should know about this place that I didn't see in other reviews is the atmosphere. This place looks like a restaurant in Mexico. Very similar to a bunch of places I went to recently in Tijuana - falling apart benches, dirty floors, busted up walls, etc. Dine in plates/utensils are plastic. If you want a nice eating environment - take your food back home.
Salsa bar was amazing - the 4 kinds I tried - pico de gallo, chip salsa, avacado salsa, and one other I can't remember how to spell were all great. Also excellent when with chips or on your meal.
Food was mixed. I had the Fajita burrito with spicy pork, chimichanga style - I loved it. My lady had the chicken taquitos - they were like eating a fried tortilla filled with sawdust - the chicken was so dry it was not edible at all.
Service is simple - order from a counter, sit down then they bring your food. You clean your own table before and after you eat.
Decent burrito, decent salsa, very great people helping serve their customers!
They forgot some of my order and didn't resolve the issue. Foods good though

Food was excellent until the last 6 months or so. Repeatedly scorched cheese & chips on our enchilada style entree even after requesting that the cheese/chips not be scorched on our take out orders.

Salsa Fresh serves some of the best Mexican food money can buy, regardless of price. The flavours jump, dance and sing off the plate into your mouth. And the value is off the charts! Burrito, taco and quesadilla meals (which include tortilla chips and a visit to the salsa bar) are about $8. The portion sizes are excellent. If your bank account is a bit low, ask for a cup of water and save some cash.Good selection of vegetarian dishes, and plenty of meat based dishes.However, be aware this is a very casual restaurant - order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. The staff are very nice and helpful.If I could eat here everyday I would :-)

Fast service and good food. We almost always get the nachos. Plenty of food for two people. We ordered tacos today. They can make tacos quickly.Features: There is a sign at the door to social distance 6 feet but no masking sign.
Parking: Sometimes you have to search for a spot but we have always found one
Wheelchair accessibility: Street level entrance and the entire restaurant is at the street level.
