Simply put, the BEST and most AUTHENTIC hispanic-inspired food I have had in years, and I am very picky when it comes to this style of cuisine. Everything was fresh, authentically prepared, and served with a knowledgeable and friendly demeanor - these folks are true culinary experts offering amazing tastes, I’m surprised they aren’t selling their chips and salsa on retail shelves, that’s how good it was!I can’t say enough about how positive every aspect of my experience at Napales was, visit them frequently, you can tell they put their heart into every order!

I loved this so much! I was visiting and stopped on my way to the highway. It was such a beautiful place. There was a man painting portraits and the environment was so welcoming. I got the breakfast bowl and added chorizo. I recommend any one to try it!

The best thing about the food I had was the salsa verde, the Habanero salsa, and the chips. Both salsa were so flavorful, although I expected the Habanero to be hotter, and the chips were tasty and strong. I hate weak and thing chips. The chicken and steak tacos were recommended but I know from experience that Al Pastor are general the best at authentic Mexican. I got 1 carne asada and it was fine but not the most flavorful and a little dry. The salsas fixed that problem. The Al Pastor was good and when combined with the salsas it was great. I would eat here again and recommend you try the Al Pastor tacos. Some of the breakfast nachos also looked good! Plenty of seating and a nice vibe since it's at the 2nd street market.

Wow, this lunch was fantastic. I couldn't believe how much food I was given, and the flavor profiles were very different. This was not a pile of mush that coagulation together. The crusty bread, the filling, the chips and salsa, just great eats.

Tried the taco salad with barbacoa, the Carne asada taco (American style), and a Carne asada taco salad. Everything was good! The barbacoa was my favorite, it was really flavorful.

My go to food at the 2nd Street market. This is not like Mexican food you’d expect to get anywhere else. Far superior, everything on the menu is fantastic. But I really want to mention the Cubano sandwich they added last winter. It is outstanding if you love a Cubano sandwich.

We simply don't go often enough to 2nd Street Market, such a good place to walk through, experience, and spend a little money. Many cool food options throughout the market, but this Cubano (I think that is the name) sandwich at Napales was just awesome. I mean, it isn't cheap, but if you are eating at 2nd Street Market, you probably know that already. Great flavors combined together, from the spicy pickle to the meat to the cheese to the meat to the cheese to the crunchy bread... Great sandwich. We even took one home to be eaten by our first born over an hour later, and I think "life changing" was among the words used to describe it (a bit dramatic, that one is). This is a sandwich you enjoy and experience. Don't eat it without appreciating each bite.

Really good Mexican tacos. The carne asada was seasoned so good

marita cunningham

The tacos were good. However they do not offer yellow cheese and the white cheese is tasteless. It is not authentic barbacoa, just regular beef. Also the lady that was plating and serving the food kept wiping sweat from her forehead and then touching the food containers, napkins and forks she was handing out. Her sweat hand was not gloved, it not sanitary. On the up side the guacamole was very good.
