    Taco Tuesday $1.99/per taco! I came here to get some tacos on Tuesday and was pleased with my order. They never disappoint and I've been here several times now in the past years! They provide great service especially the drive-thru service and they don't skimp on salsa, even the pickled vegetables they give you. The only thing I'd like to ask them is to lessen the strong cleaning supply smell- I smelled it mostly on the pickled vegetables. The chicken was ok but had an orange looking color to it. I'd prefer the steak over the chicken. Overall, this is a clean and friendly location off of Manzanita and Fair Oaks.

    Tuesday tacos $1.99. Carne asada, grilled chicken, lengua x3. Horchata $3.50. 6-7-2022

    This summer and fall I decided to partake in California Burrito's Taco Tuesday offerings as it was convenient for me to stop in at this location. With the experience shared in my last review, I paid cash. No mess-ups there. And the indoor dining is open (unsure when they reopened it but for a long time during rona you could only order at the outside window and no salsa bar). The food was solid. The chip, salsa and condiment bar was back open after rona. I love that you can grab a flap top baggie to grab your pickled zanahorias (carrots), jalapenos and onions and fresh radishes. The white sauce is delicious. The tomatillo sauce is solid. The pico de gallo is a must have. The red sauce is hot. The chips are okay but I'll forego because there isn't any woman alive over age 30 that needs that kind of carbs. The price was still solid at like $2-2.50/each taco. Traditional taqueria taco with 2 corn tortillas, onions and cilantro. Delicious! As always, parking here is tight but normal size vehicles should find a spot to park. And there is a covered patio as well as indoor seating. Though I enjoy taking it to go.

    1 Burrito - Beef

    Is that normal? I bought it yesterday around 11:30 p.m. Why is there so much rice? I ordered a birria burrito. Usually, in other places, it's more than half meat. This one is almost all rice -- it's completely full of rice

    Was pretty bland and way too big for a burrito No rolled one sense to it One half all beans very little shredded beef Maybe tacos are better idk So much sour cream gross guac

    It was almost 9 p.m., and we wanted a bite before driving for a couple of hours. We had never been to California Burrito and were surprised at the excellent quality and reasonable prices. They also have a complimentary salsa bar. Their drive-through is open 24 hours. The only thing I didn't like was that they served their food in styrofoam.

    This was supposed to be a cheese enchilada, which was not cooked.

    We paid over $40 for two plates and one birria taco from this place. I'll start with the Birria taco. it was mush like it had been cooked hours before it was given to me and just sat there soaking up the juice and the tortilla was so mushy. I couldn't even pick it up. When I opened my box to eat my cheese enchilada and my crispy shredded beef taco, I was disappointed to find that my cheese enchilada was not even cooked and my shredded beef taco was actually a burrito of some sort with dried out beef and raw vegetables in it with no sauce or cheese or anything else. See the attached pictures for this monstrosity of dinner that cost way too much and I wasn't even able to eat. The only reason I'm not giving them just one star is because my boyfriend's dinner was edible. He had a chili rellano plate. These guys should be ashamed of themselves.

    I paid $20 for a combo with carnitas and two sides of rice this is the receipt

    I paid for a combo meal that was $20 they forgot the side of rice I went back and tried to get the side of rice and the woman told me that I have to come back in the morning but unfortunately I wasn't available and she said that that wasn't her problem. I paid for the meal and I only wanted the sides I paid for nothing more but she said I needed to buy some or leave so we left and now they are refusing a refund all together. I came back with a receipt and a picture of the combo plate. I just want to be refunded at this point. She also refused to let me speak to a manager or give me a # to get more help from someone else.

    Breakfast burritos will suffice for breakfast and lunch. They are that good/big. Good choice for an early morning.

Our first impression was a cool, small, and family owned business, plus the owner was very nice and helpful. We got a few things to try, and we were not disappointed with any of it. We got a torta, burrito, papusa, tamale, and a churro to try. The torta was super good, the al pastor was seasoned well and super juicy, definitely recommend them if you like tortas. The burrito was good, and it was super filled and super large. Definitely recommend getting a burrito if you're a hungry lad. The papusa was one of the best papusas I've had around this area, super flavorful with a slightly crispy outside. It also had an insane cheese pull, definitely recommend trying one of these. Lastly the tamale was amazing, it was packed with flavor and one of the better tamales I've had in a long time because it was actually moist and not dry and overcooked. Another big recommendation from me. Overall if you're in the mood for some Mexican food please go here and support an amazing local business. Tamales and Papusas are a super recommended!

    We finally had time off again on a Sunday to come and enjoy thier yummy Sunday Brunch…read more Everything tasted amazing! Wish I could eat more I would of tried more dishes. Last time we were there I thought I was able to get just plain tortillas from the tortillas lady spot. But she looked confused then I asked for a few flour tortillas. She asked what meat I wanted to make street tacos. That's fine the pork tasted very good. But I like plain tortillas with the eggs and other dishes. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. I guess next time we will ask the server. We started with the omelets this time. Very good and well made. We tried many things, hard to take pictures. It was very busy and carrying a plate didn't work well when taking pictures.

The portions have been cut in 1/2 for a lot of menu items here over the last 5 years namely the chimichangas but seems like everything else too. The chimichangas used to be twice the size they are now and were loaded with cheese. Now they have no cheese and 1/2 the filling so there mostly flour tortilla now. Very disappointing and the plates they use now are smaller, they used to serve the food on these huge platters. Anyway went there last night (1st time in 3 years) and this is the plate I got. The 2 chimichangas are now the same size as the tamale on the other side of the plate.The service was terrible too. We did not get our food until almost an hour and by the time the food showed up we were full from the chips and bean dip and salsa wich by the way we had to wave them down several times as we seemed invisible to refill the chips and our drinks. We wont be going back again for probably another 3 years. I highly recommend Felipe's in Citrus heights on Auburn blvd. Way better value and the food quality is on par with el tapatio but with five star service!

Since it tasted good even though red sauce isn't my favorite, I didn't complain. Today I ordered the same thing, and again it came with *red* sauce. I called the restaurant and they insisted that even though the online description said "green sauce" you had to specify if you wanted green sauce. They were not willing to admit fault or change the description, but she asked if we wanted to replace it and I said yes. My son went to pick it up and they tried to charge him for it!!! If a restaurant cannot make their food to match the description *they* posted, then why take the chance ordering there? I won't be again, that's for sure!

I always deal with the same women, I ask for extra salsa on the side...which if I'm spending $100 on food should be 100% free for the amount of money I'm spending and the amount of food I have...but no she sends two small little cups of salsa for a order worth $100. I had to pay almost 10 bucks extra for salsa, and a small brown bag not even half way full of tortilla chips, at that point just don't even give any. Kinda ridiculous. Every other place I've been too provides salsa and they are more than happy to give you extra if you ask especially for the amount of food you are ordering. How can a big party share two tiny condiment size cups of salsa.
