    Huge breakfast burritos
    Sheila P.

    What a great way to have a chill Saturday morning! Picked up breakfast burritos with fresh salsa. This place is small but gets food out quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outdoor dining available as well when they get busy they have another room they open up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Breakfast burritos are huge and full of eggs potatoes and meat of choice top with fresh salsa. Top it all off with fresh made carrot or orange juice. Favorite Mexican food they do close right after lunch so be sure to get there early.

    First time here

    It was our first time here and we enjoyed it. The food was good and it was fresh. The customer service was good. We will; be back for more..

    Sooooo good!!! I had a cheese enchilada and carnitas taco. I believe the make their tortillas. The chips and salsa were good too. What a hidden gem

    Burrito De Camaron
    Vivienne C.

    I am absolutely in love with this place and coming from a place that has not so great authentic Mexican food, Tacqueria El Burrito King hit the spot. I called in ahead of time and they were ready within 10 minutes. I ordered the Burrito de Camaron with Sour Cream, Avocado, and Cheese and it was absolutely delicious. First of all, this burrito was huge and definitely could've lasted me 2 meals. The flavors were also amazing as the shrimp was grilled in its own sauce which added another salty element to the burrito. The shrimp was also extremely juicy and plentiful as there was one in each bite. The burrito was also on the wetter side which I thoroughly enjoyed, although I think next time I don't necessarily need to order another avocado. Overall, fantastic and affordable burritos and I can't wait to come back to try other ones. Also the fact that this place is open 24 hours a day is also crazy...

    Lunch in an alley!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a charming little spot in an alley in oldtown Salinas![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was told it was pretty good so I came a couple weeks ago to check it out. It's a family owned place and it shows. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is tiny but they have plenty of seats outside right in the alley, which makes it fun and interesting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They do a lot of to go orders. The menu has a lot of variety. They serve breakfast all day. I'm going to try it soon. Both times I came, I had a small combo. You can customize it if you don't see exactly what you want. I had a beef taco and cheese enchilada and it came out piping hot. The food was delicious . I requested hot salsa and is it ever hot! It made my eyes water. They happily brought me a different salsa, which was very good- you could see and taste the fresh ingredients such as onions and cilantro. The chips are not included but worth the price. The water is served in a pitcher with vegetables and fruit (lemon, cucumbers and strawberries) to infuse it with a little flavor, which I thought was a nice touch. They also bring iced tea in a carafe. The Asada tacos were flavorful and had no fat. Plenty of fresh onions and cilantro, and they asked if we wanted it first. The beans are tasty and not too cheesy. The rice was not overcooked on the edges. When the food is as good and fresh as you'd hope a Mexican restaurant would have, there's nothing to add. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I would feel comfortable inviting out-of-town guests or business colleagues. I feel comfortable dining alone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Eating lunch in the alley is a fun experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Burrito King just earned a new regular customer

    Called to place an order for pickup and she said it would be ready in 10 minutes. We arrived 15 minutes later and our order was hot and ready. I ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito, but add beans and cheese. It was sooooo delicious! They are huge so I saved half for later. Definitely hits the spot when you have that breakfast burrito craving!

    Molcajete
    Drew N.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Had a delightful experience sitting on the patio with my wife.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered the king molcajete and it was most excellent. Will definitely be back again for more.

    Machaca

    Came here late January after painting with the kids. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated quickly although we were a little cold (door was open).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Can't complain as the food was delicious as since we're next to the kitchen, we were warm enough. The breakfast fries are served with sautéed onions and bell peppers. The waffles were massive and satisfying! My niece ordered bacon and eggs a la carte and cleaned off her plate. The water has fruit infusion and the orange juice is fresh squeezed. Will definitely come again.

    Egg and Potato Burrito
    Alex R.

    First time stopping by and a bit disappointed! Egg and Potato burrito ranges from 5.99 to a bit over 6 bucks online and on the menu but I was charged over $10 for my burrito. The eggs and potatoes were not seasoned. The potato is also just French fries as pictured. Otherwise, the burrito is a fair size and the salsa is okay. The service was also alright as well.

    Small counter space.
    Dexter F.

    I have missed this place a lot. It isn't on my normal walk path so I tend to forget it. This location is tucked into an alley just off Main Street. There are about four same tables inside and a four to six outside in the breezeway plus a bonus room for parties. You can do sit down service or to-go. I ordered the breakfast burrito with all the extras

    Veggie burrito, chile relleno and two enchiladas (one chicken, one cheese)

    Quality is poor, food safety and hygiene practices are poor. Nothing special about this place, and not worth the $ for the food.

    If you know me, you know I LOVE Mexican food. I read an article about this restaurant with rave…read morereviews and decided this is where I wanted to go on Mother's Day. Drove two hours from the Bay Area to get there and it was totally with the trip. My son got the mole negro and I got the chile verde. Everything on both plates was authentic, delicious, and AMAZING. My son tried my chile verde and said it was the best he's ever tasted and I agreed. They were super busy because it was Mother's Day, but we were seated after a short wait and our waitress was super efficient and friendly. Several times during our meal someone checked to see if we needed anything. Not going to lie, we were a bit intimidated when we pulled up as there were no other non-Hispanic people in the large crowd outside waiting to be seated. I told my son that meant the food was definitely going to be good, but I was worried about how we would be received considering the political climate these days, but it wasn't an issue. Everyone was super friendly. Will definitely be going back to try other items on their menu.

The place was packed, which is always a good sign, yet the service was still excellent, very friendly, welcoming, and attentive. I ordered the tlacoyos with chicken Milanesa, and they were absolutely delicious. The chicken Milanesa was perfectly cooked, the queso fresco added great flavor, and the chile sauce had a nice kick without being overwhelming. I also tried the tamale Oaxaqueño, which was very flavorful with shredded chicken, a rich black chile sauce, and soft masa. It was much spicier than I expected, and unfortunately too spicy for me to finish, but you can tell it was made with authentic flavors. The tostadita Oaxaqueña was another tasty treat, fully loaded, fresh, and delicious. Every bite was packed with flavor. I also had the atole, which was warm, comforting, and the perfect drink to balance the meal. Overall, Culturas gave me a memorable first introduction to Oaxacan food. If you enjoy bold, authentic flavors and don't mind some heat, it's definitely worth trying.

The street tacos are made with the hand made tortillas that are to die for. We tried asada, carnitas, and pastor. Let me just say all meats were delicious. Not dry at all and super flavorful.! But the pastor stole the show. The pineapple flavor shines through with the pork and it literally is the best pastor I've had.! The tacos de cansta were amazing.! Get there early to get the chicharrón filling. They sell out.! Add the cabbage mixture to the taco for a bright flavor. Also, get both red and green salsas. Mix them and be amazed. The red salsa has a hint of smokeyness but it's not over powering. The green is more like an avocado salsa. I told the owner that I fully enjoyed his food and he explained the process and I can appreciate the time and prep he takes to make this cuisine.

I ordered one of each of the tacos de canasta and they are delicious. The beans are so flavorful, you can tell they were made with love. I took a bite of the quesadilla and OMG it's amazing.

This is a must try!
