I have attached a picture of what they think is a Gordita So the boiled chicken with onion had no taste. This should be called a double tostada. My husbands sad looking enchiladas had the same tasteless chicken. My daughter tiny carne asada was okay per her. Not bad but not great! They both said the rice was not good, the beans were just okay. And the glass of soda $5.00. Jeez! I thought at was at a venue. I want to say that we did eat here about 2 years ago, and the food back then was great, which is why we returned. But Never the less we will not be returning for the cost of tasteless food. Literal receipt included.

I broke off a piece of tostada to at least taste it and had some of the chicken. But this is what was left in the table.

Their menu has a bit for everybody if you want tacos, burritos, and other great items as well. They have Combos as well that are well worth it. When our order was ready she let us have a Barbacoa taco to sample and it was SO delicious if I knew how good it was I would have gotten a few of those, Now I know for next time. So flavorful and loved how she heated the tortillas they had a good crisp to it. Their asada was our favorite along with the barbacoa. Great tacos and amazing service. Can't wait to come back when we are in the area. They have a seating area as well as hand washing area as well. Friendly reminder they only take cash as well. Great spot for tacos!

Salsa tasted like tomatoe sauce no spice at all no seasoning. I had to add some sauce in a bottle to help it have flavor. I order a tamal a la cart and 1/2 order of beans. Our other order was a two item chile relleno shredded beef taco rice and beans. Again when the food came out bland no seasoning we ate what we could but left disappointed.

Crearee Gourmet Market is an absolute gem! Their burritos are amazing and the branding iron stamp on top is such a cool touch that makes them feel extra special. The fresh cut fruit is always delicious, fresh, and perfect for a healthy snack on the go. One of my favorite finds there is Kōbu Kombucha Powder -- all the gut health and hydration benefits of kombucha without the vinegar bite. It's low sugar, low calorie, and packed with goodness that keeps me feeling great throughout the day. Whether you're grabbing breakfast, lunch, healthy snacks, or discovering new products, Crearee Gourmet Market always delivers quality and an incredible experience. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area! read more

As a vegetarian, it's always tough to find a delicious yet plant-based breakfast burrito. We stumbled upon this spot leaving Mammoth and are so happy we did. This was HANDS DOWN the best breakfast burrito I've ever had (substituted bacon/chorizo options for the plant based jackfruit carnitas). I wish I could have this every day... super flavorful and just sooooo yummy. So happy we found Mercado- we will definitely be back! read more

My friend and I both ordered summer roll (pork and lettuce wrapped in rice paper) and spring rolls (shrimp and lettuce wrapped in rice paper) at $12 for 4 rolls. The Vietnamese owner lady was very nice and let us order them as a mixture of 2 spring rolls and 2 summer rolls as one order. Freshly made to order. They look and taste very "home made", also on the smaller side compared to what I'm used to (lots of Vietnamese restaurants near where I live), and these rolls do not come with rice noodles as many others I'm used to. All that aside, we took our very first bite a few hours later and my friend immediately felt stands of hard thin strings in her mouth, and spitting out SEVERAL STRANDS of short hair, which is not the same color as her own long hair. Shocking. Very shocking. My rolls were just fine with no foreign substances, however the more we eat the more we are getting grossed out from the encounter...she didn't finish eating that roll with hair in it and continue to eat 2 out of the 3 rolls left and so did I, since we were both very hungry and it was our only food option during the long journey, but the whole time we were getting more and more grossed out and none of us ate the 4th last roll in our order. Payment: She accepts credit card or Venmo, but any other form of payment besides cash would be an extra dollar of up charge. Instead of paying $13 for a $12 item, we decided to scramble for cash to pay her. Location: One of three food trucks located in a dirt road parking lot with active large and live mosquitoes flying around attacking us while we order food and dine. A Mexican taco truck each to the left and right side of this Vietnamese food truck. Other: This lady owner says she's had her business here for 5 years now. Had wanted to try several items on the menu but already made a purchase with the taco truck to its right. Perhaps it's a good thing, because the sanitary and hygiene issue here is questionable. I hope she starts to wear a hair net when she preps food. I mean, I understand we all shred hair daily and she must of been working hard to chop the veggies and hand roll each spring roll...but we really don't need that evidence in the form of strands of hair in our food...
