This is a fantastic local Taqueria and just what I look for in local spots. They do not need to be fancy. In fact, the fancier they are, the more lackluster the dishes will be. Small places like this are cared for and run by people that care about the food they serve. A small indoor seating area is available and an outdoor area is on the sidewalk. I stopped in for an early dinner before a show at Ch24 and it hit the spot. The loaded Carne Asada fries are full of seasoned meat, pico, guac, cheese, sour cream, and jalapenos. I really enjoyed it and will come back again. read more

Chita's Taquería - Carne Asada Fries - Mexican Near Me - Sacramento, California

Before catching a concert at Channel 24, we wanted to grab a small bite to eat and this spot was walking distance. When you walk-in theirs kiosks you can order from or you could order at the register. We were planning on eating after the concert so I decided to go with a carnitas soft taco and a carne asada hard taco. My girlfriend got a bean and cheese burrito. Between the two tacos, i definitely liked the hard taco best. The carne asada didn't have much flavor though but was pretty salty. The carnitas didn't have much flavor either and honestly wish I would've asked them to grill the meat so it crisps up. My girlfriend's burrito was interesting to say the least. While it was hot to the touch, the cheese inside of the burrito wasn't melted and the beans also didn't have much flavor. I think the best part was the salsa bar. Quality salsas for sure. Also, the price was pretty good. I think we got all that food for under $25 which is decent for the amount of food we got. The spot was pretty busy, so I'm guessing we just ordered the wrong things. With not a lot of options in the area near Channel 24, it did what it needed to do though. read more

My husband brought me home a burrito from here, and overall I'd say it was a mid-tier burrito. The meat wasn't as seasoned as I would've liked, but I did appreciate that the potatoes, beans, and meat were evenly distributed throughout the burrito. Nothing was overpowering, though it also meant the flavors stayed pretty one-note without many standout moments. For the price, you do get a decent-sized burrito, so the value isn't bad. That said, I'm not sure I would go out of my way to come back unless it was purely for convenience. I guess there's a reason it's in "MID"town. Ambiance: Small, hole-in-the-wall spot with a casual Mexican kitchen vibe. Service: Quick and friendly staff. read more

Stopped by to pick up a burrito and it was very quick service. Al pastor super burrito: B The pastor is decent, I haven't tried any of there other meats but it does taste good. The tortilla is warmed and has a nice stretchy texture, and the guac/sour cream definitely helps give it some needed richness. The salsas were very standard and did not come with chips. read more

Sadly, I was disappointed in the quality of food here. So much so, that I only took one bite of two tacos and I ordered 4 in total. The flavor/taste was off, the quality of the ingredients were very low, the food was presentation was also not the best. The meat was so dry I almost choked, the chicken el pastor tasted very unpleasant. When I called to express my concerns, no one answered the phone so I don't have the opportunity to speak to how their customer service would've made up for this. read more

When you walk in there is an iPad to place your order for here or to go, although they do have limited seating. They have a small salsa bar with the standard salsas. I ordered the shredded beef super burrito and it was soooo good! As soon as I took my first bite there was so much flavor. All of the filling was mixed well so every bite had a little bit of everything. I also tried their flan, it was good but I like a little more caramelization on top. I would definitely come back! read more

Burritos were undeniably mid. Portion size wasn't bad for 12$ a burrito. They gave a decent amount of meat but the asada was not flavorful and there were some sus fatty pieces of meat. Wish I could give more stars since they're a small shop but If I did I'd feel like a liar ! read more

Chita's Taquería - Regular Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Sacramento, California

What a little surprise tucked into a shady block across from The Press Apts on Q street in downtown (midtown?) Sacramento. We took a walk from home near the capital and discovered a jewel! There's seating outside when the weather permits and room for a few inside (12?) Colorful, and full of the amazing aroma of freshly made authentic Mexican cuisine. We literally followed our noses. We were greeted by the sweetest woman and received our food quickly. We shared a wet super burrito with carnitas and verde sauce and a chile verde Chimichanga with all the toppings. The food was excellent, flavorful and perfectly prepared. The meat in both was flavorful and tender. We took home about half of our meal each. Portions are generous. Looking forward to the leftovers. The vibe is super casual and up beat. As if a Mexican surf shack caught a wave to Sacramento. We watched Lots of pick up from both neighborhood and door dash style delivery services. That's a green flag to us for sure. We are returning very soon to explore their other menu items. read more

Still in the hunt for the best Chile Relleno in the Sac area, and very open to suggestions. **This was a DoorDash Order** Chile Rellano Burrito: 6.1/10 - Better than others I've tried. Nice portion, the pepper itself was the star of the burrito (as it should be). Crispy Taco (Chicken): 6.3/10 - Better than Taco Bell, good portion of meat, a bit too seasoned, but fine, I guess. Tres Leches Cake: 6.6/10 - Def a different take on this dessert. More of an upscale, frufru rendition. Not bad per se, just not what I was expecting. Overall, it's fine. Prices are decent. Portions are good. I need to try additional items. Try em out! read more

I got asada nachos this had little meat which had a weird flavor so the ratio and taste was off but the flavor of the of the guacamole, cream and beans made it decent should've just got beans and cream nachos and there was only a sprinkle of cheese. The bottom of the plate had bald nachos making me use my home dip for them :( Nice customer service and place however I will not be going back again. read more

I'm so tired of supporting local restaurants who don't give a FK about their food. I'll talk my shit. First off don't put anybody in the front who doesn't know how to speak bilingual. That makes no sense and you look bad and it slows everything down. Second, if you don't have a special on Tuesdays, I might as well save my money for jalapeños on Thursdays just saying. And lastly, charging somebody over four dollars for a taco like this should make you feel embarrassed and sad for the customer who's going to experience this. I'm done supporting you guys for a while. read more

Chita's Taquería - Lame ass Crispy Taco - Mexican Near Me - Sacramento, California

Last week, I was scrolling through the Chita's menu on Yelp while doing laundry nearby at Love. I could remember old school Yelpers raving about Chita's years ago, and the ratings were still high. Even better, their wet burrito with carne asada was several dollars cheaper than the one from my favorite taqueria in Folsom. Sold. I walked right over to Chita's to order a wet burrito with carne asada, to go, as well as a tamarind Jarritos. When I was paying, the woman behind the counter asked me if I wanted salsa cups. "Yes please!" I always want salsa cups. I didn't notice until after I had paid that chips were sold on the side for $1.50 extra. I should have ordered some, but didn't. My food didn't take very long to come out at all. I walked it back to my spot, and cut right into the middle. The first things I saw were carne asada, guacamole, rice, and pico de gallo-- and I saw a LOT of guacamole. Perfect. The burrito was (by definition) drenched in red sauce, so I wasn't really able to try any of the rest of the salsa with it. I still tried a little of the avocado sauce, and thought it was good, but a little watery. The ingredients on the inside of the burrito were all great. The carne asada and guacamole were top notch for a taqueria at this price point. I liked the red sauce that topped the burrito, but not as much as the sauce at my favorite taqueria chain. The portion size was a bit smaller, but I'm never able to finish the entire burrito at my favorite place, anyway. The customer service was great. The woman who helped me was very friendly. The inside of the shop was clean, but not sparkling. I would definitely love to come back to Chita's to try more of their menu items in the future. read more

Tried the breakfast burrito. Might have been good if the ingredients were distributed throughout, but my first few bites were potatoes, followed by rice, bacon, eggs, and spinach. It had been a while, so thought it was worth seeing if they had a Top Notch Sacramento Breakfast Burrito - they do not. read more

Solid food, nice customer service and also offered a kiosk to order food which was nice as a first time customer so I didn't feel rushed to place my order. The place is in a great spot in midtown, with lots of parking along the street. The portions were good and the price for four adults and one child was pretty fair. I'm a huge fan or carnitas and have to try it at every place it's offered. I have found some to be too sweet or too over cooked and crunchy but Chita's was definitely one of the best!! The meat was moist and had plenty of flavor, I'll definitely be coming back to try more read more

Chita's Taquería - Super Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Sacramento, California

We ordered Doordash delivery on a Monday night. We had the regular burrito ($12.15) with added sour cream ($.65) and the steak taco salad ($13). Taco salad was very tasty. However, I wouldn't exactly call it a "salad". It had about as much lettuce as a Taco Bell crunchy taco. If you fancy a nice 7-layer dip in an edible fried shell, then this is the dish for you! It comes with rice, beans, meat, pico, sour cream, cheese, lettuce, and guacamole. The shell was amazing and makes the perfect "chip" for your bowl of dip. The steak was finely diced (like smaller than a dime) and flavorful. Al pastor regular burrito with added sour cream was great. Comes with choice of meat, rice, beans, and cheese. It's grilled on the outside and has plenty of cheese. I imagine the Al Pastor is the best meat choice, because I simply can't comprehend the idea of anything tasting better! Their mini salsas were quite lovely, but use sparingly because you only get 2 per meal. Also, both made great leftovers the next day. read more

Ubereats Chita's last night and am glad I did! I got the Chita's fries and they had a bogo deal for their al pastor pollo burrito. The fries were incredibly good! I did not have the burrito fresh because I planned to take it for work today, but it was still yummy. Both items were cooked greatly with quality tasting ingredients. The burrito was smaller than most I've seen, but I did get full from it! read more

Chitas is a local staple; if you know, you know. Their rice is unmatched, staff is always friendly, and the hours are so accommodating for all types of working people. The consistency is their best quality: food quality and flavors, portions and wait time, and even through COVID they kept a walk up window to keep the community fed. Worth stopping in for the fantastic food, and a bonus to support a local gem. read more

Serving all day to late night; a corner Mexican restaurant serving the quintessential comfort foods Food: Huevos rancheros - 5/5 - incredibly delicious; definitely a must try breakfast dish! Definitely my favorite! Chilaquiles - 4/5 - pretty good but not exceptional Sopes - 5/5 - probably one of the best in Sacramento that I've had; definitely a personal favorite of mine that makes me come back Tacos (Al pastor, carne asada, chorizo, carnitas) - 4/5 - loved the chorizo and carnitas decently more than the carne asada (cuts should be smaller and should have more charred taste) and Al pastor (lacks pineapple) Love how there is at least 4-5 salsas Enchiladas - 4.5/5 - pretty flavorful with a bright red sauce but only mildly spicy Super quesadilla - 4.5/5 - big serving portion;definitely worth a try Chicken tortilla soup - 4/5 - pretty good, quite loaded with tortilla chips, chicken chunks, corn, beans, avocado and cheese Aguas frescas - 5/5 - love how there's plentiful selection including tamarind, mango, melon, jamaica, pineapple, etc. Ambience: Small little corner restaurant with a few small tables Service: Fast and friendly read more

Happy to report the foods just as good as it was when I started eating here over 10 years ago. Old lady even loved it. I ordered us a burrito too and she legit said it was the best burrito she's ever had. It was still fire a couple days later. Hands down favorite place. Highly recommended. Still! read more

I've been coming to Chita's for years and I've always enjoyed the food here. You can't really go wrong with their option but recently I tried their Machaca Burrito with stake, bacon and chorizo which was delicious with their salsa. I also love that they have a self serve salsa bar. Many places don't have one anymore so I'm always happy to find a restaurant with great food and a self serve salsa bar. It just adds a little something to the experience and allows me to add however much I like to my dish. If you're a salsa lover, you know how satisfying that can be. The restaurant is smaller and can probably seat about 20 people but it's a tight fit. They have Mexican music and right now it's Christmas time so they have some lights and a small Christmas tree up. They play mexican music softly and the have a cool map of Mexico painted on the wall. read more

Stopped by this morning to try their breakfast burritos and ended up getting tortas. I added ham to one and chorizo to another; both delicious. The ham was thin-sliced, eggs were fluffy, beans were creamy and the cilantro and onion inside popped. It was very satisfying. Will definitely order again. The chorizo was flavorful without the grease. Nice people, quick service. Cute little eating area inside, couple of counter-style spots and some small tables. Edited to add: got a breakfast burrito with steak for my 16 year old and he said it was better than Oscars and Adalbertacos on Florin. read more

A-MAZING! This spot is serving some real authentic deliciousness. I don't like quesadillas unless they're homemade, but their chicken quesadilla was made with the utmost love. I just discovered this location while making a stop to my fav New Korean joint , Pocha house , and discovered the amazing ness that is Sacramento farm to fork Latinx flavors! I love it here The tacos are good but I personally love a good tripita taco. The feel of this spot is like being a local in the city and having that one good small shop that needs to stay forever !

This has become my go-to taqueria in midtown (and dare I say, all of Sac). The food is so dang good, and I love the salsa and condiment bar that you can fill up on items yourself.

The place is small but the portions are big! The food was really tasty, and the salsa bar is great. You can either order on the kiosk or with the person at the stand. The kiosk is nice because there are pictures of the food. Theres also a small area out front to eat if it's hot out! read more

While the super crispy taco shell is one of the best around, this order was still terrible. I had carnitas my first go around and they were tasty. This time I mixed it up and ordered al pastor, carne asada, and pollo. They all tasted like cat food. Hands down worst al pastor ive ever had, chicken was flavorless and the carne as equally awful. Idk maybe you have to order the right meats, but probably not going to be back for more. read more

Oh my gosh! My boyfriend and I were in the area and thought mexican food was a good option for dinner. We thought that Chita's was a solid choice since it's rated 4 stars and was open late. There's a bar of sauces/condiments near the cashier. I always love it when restaurants allow self-service so that you can fill up on whatever you want. I was in the mood for a quesadilla and ordered the super version. I did not know they were going to come out with a giant plate, but it was such a pleasant surprise. The quesadilla was insanely cheesy and flavorful. We really enjoyed the tortilla but I loved the amount of sour cream that they give you on the side. This was easily one of the top quesadillas I've ever had. I'm salivating while thinking about it :'( It got super busy around 9PM, with a rush of people coming in and out to dine in or pick up their orders. I didn't realize how appreciated this hole in the wall spot was and I would definitely come back! :) read more

I am disappointed in Chitas today. My go to all the time but today did not serve, my chicken burrito from Uber eats was just not it. Tasted more like a bean burrito than anything along with my fish taco, I was too hungry to take a picture at first with the fish taco since it took an extra 40 mins delay for my delivery but it barely had any fish in it too, the burrito here for their promo makes sense, the "bogo" free will definitely cheat you out of your protein. This here has made me rethink this place read more

Chita's was a casual, but delicious place to grab a bite of some decent Mexican food. We came upon this place based on the great Yelp reviews and I'm so glad we took a chance. The restaurant itself is pretty small, but very welcoming. Our server at the counter was so very nice and helped us with a smile on his face. It was a chilly night, so I ordered chicken tortilla soup and a bean and cheese burrito. My husband ordered a chicken quesadilla. The food came out less than 10 minutes which was great because we were starving. The tortilla soup was so good and hit the spot. It had the right amount of spice, chicken, corn, and beans. They were also very generous with the cheese topping. It also came with a side of chopped cilantro and red onions, which were a great accompaniment to the soup. I was so full from the soup because it was a very generous bowl so I only managed to take a couple of bites of my burrito, but it was delicious. The beans were so tasty and again, very generous with the cheese. The flour tortilla tasted homemade. My husband loved the chicken and cheese quesadilla and it too was very generous in size and came with a huge heaping of sour cream. I would definitely return to try some of their other dishes. read more

Pretty disappointed. I set my expectations high because my aunt brought us a container of their salsa Fresca and it was absolutely amazing, so we went back to try their food. I purchased the wet burrito along with some other items. I got the carne asada and it just tasted like fish and I don't eat seafood, so that wasn't pleasant at all. I also ordered my mother the chicken enchiladas and it wasn't included in our bag. The aesthetic was nice and clean. A little quaint building. The parking is all street parking. The food was a no for me, but maybe one day I'll give them another try and just order something different. The salsa Fresca was still amazing. read more

Then when you move away, you come back for the delicious food, the warm service, and the one of a kind vibe. I like the paintings too. It's a little tight inside, but i think that adds to the ambiance. For a place that's so busy, it's nice to see all the smiles of the patrons & workers. Good food, good space. Ooooo and good drinks too. read more
