My New favorite place to eat. The tortillas are so fresh you can taste the flavor. Friendly service from staff, and food was served in a timely manner. The atmosphere is very authentic Mexican, music is at a perfect volume. read more

The food was average, but the prices were extremely high for what you get. At $27.99 for most entrées and $19.99 for smaller plates, it simply wasn't worth it. Kids' meals at $12.99 felt overpriced as well. Ate and left quickly after a big check. We've had meals at much nicer restaurants for less. Unfortunately, the value just isn't there for us, so we won't be returning. read more

Quality has now gone way down. Starting with the chips! Please change the oil ! Chicken dry and awful. No more Diet Pepsi - Pepsi zero in its place. Terrible. I don't think they will be around for long ... too bad - they hung on but have lost my business. read more

The pork tacos are amazing the chips are also free the bathroom is super clean 5 stars!

Food is bland and boring. Fish taco was terrible. Chile relleno was also not flavorful. This was the 2nd time we had lunch here in the last 3 years, and we will not return. Taste like Mexican food made in Iowa or Kansas. Yuck. read more

This has got to be the most expensive Mexican food in the entire area. I ordered 12 tamales to go, had to fight with them to get red enchilada sauce to go. I asked for it in to go bag, had to come back bc they left it out of the bag. Then they wanted to charge me for it. If I order it to eat in house they pour it all over my tamales. Ridiculous. Good food but really, why is it sooo expensive and really why do I have to be charged for to go sauce. read more

This place is tooooo expensive for what you get! Ordered two beef taco plates that come with rice and beans. Beans and rice had little taste. Hubby had a small beer and I had water. Our bill was $64.38 . We've been eating at this restaurant for 20 plus years. At the most our bill used to averaged 35.00 -40.00. Time to find a new go to Mexican restaurant! read more

Way too expensive. Each burrito costed $22.00 (with tax). The food is OK but won't come back read more

We have been happy customers at El Azteca since it was a single store front with corrugated metal decor. The last two times, something changed. Customer service, not the same bubbly friendly servers. Took a half hour to get our food. The food was good as usual. HOWEVER, maybe someone can help me understand how 1 item combination, a pork taco, with all beans, no rice, and 1 soda can cost $23 fricken dollars. Husband had a chili rellano placard and an ice tea. Total with a $7.00 tip, took our bill to $47.42. This is for 3 food items, rellano, taco and and 2 drinks. Seems mighty high priced to me We won't be going back. read more

Many seafood and vegetarian options, large portions, and great customer service. I always order a seafood or vegetarian dish and it's always made fresh, with fresh ingredients and tastes delicious. read more

El Azteca Taqueria - Rancheros Camerones - Mexican Near Me - Roseville, California

3 starts because the food is descent. The service was not so good. We paid $25 for a shrimp plate that was not worth the price. The Micheladas were $15.50 which was outrageous. There was no cocktail menu with a full bar. read more

It's hard to find good authentic Mexican food in Roseville... but I definitely recommend this place. Especially if you like Menudo/Pazole and looking for Tacos de Cabeza, Langua or Buche. The mole is bomb as well. My fiancé is super picky on his Mexican food, coming from all the San Diego food options, but he loved the tacos here and said it was the best Pazole he's had since he's been living here (1.5yr). The micheladas are made with or without the Clamato, which I really appreciated that option because I actually prefer to go without the Clamato. The bar has a wide range of Tequila options and is my preferred seating area so you can just sit and order with the bartender. Otherwise you walk up to the counter and order your food, then find your seating and wait for it to come out. Chips and Salsa are served and the salsa is not only delicious but has a little kick. I think you can tell a lot about how the food is going to be, based on the salsa. Just my 2 cents. The ambiance is chill, open seating, plenty of space and they have a live Mariachi on Fridays. If you're in Roseville, I recommend. read more

Have to agree with the many other Yelp 3 stars reviews. The food is okay, not outstanding. The prices are not bargain for the quality. My wife had just 2 tacos, no sides, I had the combo meal #12. I drank one beer, She had a watermelon margarita. Price = $89!!! I lived in Mexico 1976 - 1977. I went to college in San Antonio Texas. I've lived in California more that 50 years. I eat Mexican food both good and bad 3 days / week. This here food is typical Tex-Mex. Big on starches & sauces. Nothing fancy about it. Yes, the #12 combo (Chile relleno, chicken enchilada, beans, rice, lettuce. Surprisingly no warm tortillas). It was a heap of food that satisfied my usual ravenous appetite. Though I did suffer a belly bloat for several hours after. Friday evening dining room was completely packed. Lots of screaming children (Don't parents control their kids behavior anymore?). Noise level was unbearable. Servers, I met three during the meal, were in the range from rushed but friendly to almost outright surly. Tried this place once. No need to ever return. read more

El Azteca Taqueria - Watermelon margaritas - Mexican Near Me - Roseville, California

This used to be a great spot... In the last four years, the quality has become less than expected from my experience prior of eating here 20+ years... customer service is not that great... A bottle of Coke is five dollars plus... A fountain soda is four dollars plus and the amount of food that you get for the price is an absolute joke... $20 for a tortilla with a half a scoop of beans, a half a scoop of rice a tablespoon if you're lucky of guacamole and a tablespoon of sour cream and maybe a tablespoon of pico de gallo... That whole thing if you added it up including a quarter cup of beans and a quarter cup of rice would not even cost five dollars... I get you have overhead but they've been in business for way over 20 years and it's absolute highway robbery... I would not recommend it but if you're wealthy, I would recommend it... I hate to write a bad review because I've been eating here for so long but it's just absolutely ridiculous on what they're charging for the quality of service and of the amount of food now... One other thing the chips and salsa used to be amazing. You would get a normal bowl of salsa now it literally holds not even a quarter cup and you have three people well it's gonna be gone in about four dips so I just think it's absolutely ludicrous. read more

We have been customers for quite some time and last night was an eye opener for us. We ordered ONE meal to share and ONE cocktail and ONE soda and left there with a bill of $85. They charged us five addl dollars to use a credit/debit card and added a 20% tip which I adjusted. The service was slow with minimal people in the restaurant which isn't unusual. The food is good but the price has gotten so far out of normal folks price range that we will not ever be back! Close to $100 to share a meal is CRAZY and completely out if common folk price range! Tonight was a deal breaker for us. read more

Been going here for years. Food is great, but has gotten really expensive. Owners are great and always friendly. Like sitting at the bar.

The menudo is great but I don't normally get the pata. I love the chorizo and egg breakfast . Overall this place reminds me of home and that is Denton Texas when my Grandma would cook. I wish they made their own flour tortillas but I know they are a lot of work, mine always roll out in the shape of Texas read more

Chicken tacos are subliminally delicious!!! I definitely need to try their other food options.

Real authentic Mexican food. They have great margaritas & great customer service. Fun atmosphere! read more

El Azteca Taqueria - Bacon wrapped shrimp. - Mexican Near Me - Roseville, California

This used to be the Mexican spot we would go to even though the price for everything is crazy high. It was worth it because it was so good. We went yesterday and EVERYTHING was so disappointing. The burrito was premade and just reheated. It was so different that we will not be returning. If you do go... Pay attention to the shot glass the bartender uses and how thick the glass is. For the price, you'd think at least you would get a decent drink. read more

Food is bomb! I'm from San Jose and we are very well known to have really good Mexican food. And this by far has been very good. A little pricey but so worth it. I've had beef enchiladas with rice and beans, taco salad (my absolute favorite) and chille reinos (my husband's favorite!). We will be back for sure! read more

Food is expensive. One taco and nachos with two sodas was $50. The ladies act like you are annoying them by existing and are always so rude. It's close by but not worth it. read more

EXCELLENT Mexican food in Roseville! A heavy, two-fist burrito is always a good start and the fish was tender beautifully cooked. Also, I highly recommend the ground beef tacos. Alexandria was a super-friendly hostess and the kitchen staff are obviously top-notch! read more

Being honest way over priced for the food and small servings. Food tasted average to below. I wouldn't go again or recommend to others. Service was ok being almost everything is self serve. read more

Good food, big portions. Crowded on a week night at dinner time. Yummy crispy chicken tacos, refreshing watermelon margarita! Would come again. read more

It has been probably least 5 years since the last time I was here. Met a friend for dinner on a Thursday night. I always thought they were on the pricier side compared to most taquerias and why I have avoided them. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. There is a self service drink station. As others have noted, there is an upcharge if you do not pay cash. I ordered the taco and burrito combo which was better than expected. It was hearty and must say they have the best spanish rice I ever had. It was light, fluffy, and flavorful. Chips and salsa was just okay. The inside has a nice ambience. It is more festive restaurant style. Would be a great place to bring your family or group of friends. I would come back again. read more

If you want to spend a lot of money for mediocre Mexican food and drinks, this is your place!

Service is always excellent! While the food may be a little on the pricey side, it's absolutely worth it. The weekend pozole is a solid 10/10 highly recommend! read more

El Azteca Taqueria - Mexican Near Me - Roseville, California

Delicious food. Clean, open space. Nice people. I took one star only because it's a little higher price than I would expect. I had the taco/enchilada plate and my husband had the enchilada/tamale plate. I had a watermelon margarita and my hubby had a soda. Cost was 63 with tip, 75 for 2 people is a little steep for lunch. I would come here again! read more

Great food and good service! This place is always worth the visit. Everything on the menu is delicious.

$80 for lunch was too much considering the poor quality of the food. We had 2 lunch plates, 1 taco and burrito, 1 taco and enchilada and then a child's quesadilla plate. The food as mediocre at best. Nothing had any flavor to it. They brought out sala and chips. The table sala was so spicy no one could eat it. We did not take any leftovers home it was so bad. read more

El Azteca Taqueria - Taco and burrito plate. - Mexican Near Me - Roseville, California

Food was good! Service great too. Ordering system is a bit different but I picked it up quickly :) highly recommend the burrito

The food is decent, but the prices are outrageous. Normally, I would not mind paying for decent food, but the salsa portions are tiny and they are unbelievably stingy with it. It is honestly insane. You practically have to beg for more, and it is obvious they are not happy about giving it. Call me crazy, but a Mexican restaurant should be generous with the salsa. Absolutely ridiculous. read more

Not for us. Pricing is through the roof and the food is just okay. 2 combo plates, a burrito and taco with one fountain drink was nearly $80. We all agreed that the food was not as good as Don Quixote's in Rocklin which we enjoy. Service was just okay as well--none of the workers really seemed like they wanted to be there. read more

This very rarely leave reviews but felt it necessary to leave this one. I ordered a vodka soda cocktail and they charged me for the soda water. I'm have never in my life been charged for the mixer in my cocktail. The bartender was very nonchalant and said oh well, we've always done this. The food was sub par and even though this restaurant is close to my home, we will never eat here again. And they charge $3.00 more if you pay by card. read more

Can you say overpriced food poisoning? I can! I was wondering why there wasn't many people in here like there used to be. Food made me sick for nearly $100!!! The staff didn't seem very happy and the guy in the back was sneezing all over the dishes. Ambiance? Empty. Be better. I will be taking my money elsewhere for sure. read more

Worst burrito I ever had ain't even put no meat in mines and it was 20$ for a simple burrito

The food we ordered was very good except the price was much higher than others in the area. The service is, well let's just say what service. We ordered at the counter, seated ourselves and then we waited for the food. The restaurant was nice and clean the kitchen was very clean. I will not be going back just because of the lack of common courtesy by the serving staff. read more

We have been eating here at least 15 years every six weeks or so. The last three years we have only visited twice. There prices and service charges are outrages. Food portions are noticeably smaller. No chips anymore with to go orders. A side of beans (about a pint) is over $7 and is a smaller portion now. Service is not good and the place is not busy anymore, I wonder why. Very disappointed as this was our favorite Mexican restaurant around. Just not worth it. read more

Food was really good! I had the chili Colorado, and my wife had the fajitas. I grew up near Mexico and the food here is legit. This is a no brainer 5 star, but others have mentioned the prices are much higher than other similar places. read more
