I had heard good things about their food, and a coworker brought in delicious breakfast burritos a…read morewhile ago, so I stopped for lunch and grabbed a Carnitas Super Burrito to take back to work. Worst, most inedible carnitas (?) ever! They were so dry/desiccated/old that at first I thought someone had left a piece of bone in it. I spit out what I thought was a bone, and took another bite...I got a mouthful of hard, old, crunchy (not in a good way) pork. The burrito was huge and looked great, but in the trash it went. I am a little concerned about getting sick. Jeeze! Go somewhere else!!!

Here's my take on El Ray Mexican Restaurant after a recent dinner visit. I ordered the Enchilada…read moreTaco combo, a bowl of Menudo, and fried ice cream for dessert. The Enchilada Taco hit the spot--tender tortilla, nicely seasoned filling, and a generous blanket of sauce and cheese. Rice and beans were classic and comforting. The Menudo was the standout: rich broth with plenty of hominy, clean-tasting tripe, and that satisfying depth that really opens up with a squeeze of lime and a pinch of oregano. I'd personally prefer a touch more heat or salt, but the flavor was there. Service was warm and genuine, even during the dinner rush. Chips and salsa landed quickly, drinks stayed topped off, and our server checked in without hovering. The only ding--and why it's four stars instead of five--was timing: entrées took a bit longer than expected, and the music was a tad loud for conversation at peak hour. Prices felt fair for the portions. I finished with fried ice cream that arrived crisp and golden outside, cold and creamy inside, with just enough drizzle to keep it fun without being cloying. Overall, a solid local spot I'll happily revisit during non-peak hours.

Carnitas El Rincón has the best carnitas I've ever had in my life. No exaggeration. The flavor is…read moreincredible, the meat is always perfectly cooked, and the portions are generous every time. They're also flexible and easy to work with, which I really appreciate. Their family meal is especially great, budget friendly, filling, and perfect when you need to feed more than one person without spending a fortune. Currently, they're the only place I go for carnitas in the Yuba City area.

I was excited to find a place like this in Yuba County. As a Mexican lady from Southern California…read moreI struggle to find good Mexican spots up North. Unfortunately my search continues as I was not impressed by the taste and flavors of the food. I ordered the taco plate with 1 pound of carnitas, tortillas and rice and beans. Based on the sign at the front register I thought I would receive freshly made tortillas but they definitely were not. They were giving Guerrero store bought. I expected more from a place that solely specializes in carnitas. I had high expectations of my carnitas and these were very white and lacked flavor which maybe is a sign of the times that not enough Manteca is used due to rising food costs and seems like they just boil the carnitas. "Están muy blancas las carnitas" is what my dad said. They lacked flavor. Unfortunately I will not be going again unless the recipes to make the carnitas, rice and beans changes or if the head chef implements some changes. As a Mexican with a refined taste pallet for Mexican dishes, this was an overall 6/10 experience. Those with more bland taste pallets or perhaps the Americanized folks would enjoy this place. Carnitas - 4/10 Tortillas - 2/10 Rice- 5/10 Beans- 4/10 Agua de Guayaba - 8/10 Horchata - 8/10 Not offering limes with the order - 1/10 was warm for indoor seating - 2/10

The food is fresh, flavorful, and made with pride, just like true homemade Mexican cuisine should be. I grew up eating authentic Mexican food, and this place definitely brings those real flavors back. The customer service is excellent, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming with a great attitude. The location may look small on the outside near Highway 70, but the food and atmosphere make it worth the stop. Overall, great food, great people, and a great experience. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic Mexican cuisine.

Ordered Milanese plate with rice and beans, a wet super burrito with asada and two mango margaritas on the rocks with tajin on the rim. Since it was our first visit, our server gave us complementary chips and salsa-good and spicy!! The burrito was HUGE!! Looks like a homemade red sauce which tasted great and plenty big enough for two with leftovers. (Some said the red sauce tasted just like tomato paste. It definitely did have lots of tomato but definitely was flavored well). The Milanese was cooked nice and served with rice and beans (tasted like the ones from home) this place was great and had much of the homemade vibe. Will definitely come again to try some of the other offerings.

Not usually impressed with chicken tacos, but these were amazing. My husband and FOL ordered asada tacos. The husband likes spicy and was offered chili oil on his. He said it was delicious. He did have to get a lime Jaritos to offset some of the heat. But that's a sign of perfect heat. The FOL got mild tacos with green sauce. After the chips and bowl of salsa, it was a little spicy for him. But he's old. They brought out some sliced radishes without any request to kill the heat for him, which was very thoughtful. Adding Taqueria Azul to my list of amazing tacos. Definitely going to become a regular stop.
