    Rancheros Camerones

    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.

    Buche & Lengua tacos

    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.

    Watermelon margaritas

    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.

I came here before with a friend several times. You get seated anywhere you want. They served you chips and salsa when first sit down and asked what you like to drink. I got agua de Jamaica, it's iced tea made of dried hibiscus flowers. It's sweet and tangy. I asked for side or guacamole. I ordered 2 chile rellleno with all rice. I don't like beans. It came out within 10 mins ordering it. The plate came out hot. The waitress warn me before she put it down. I couldn't eat it at first. It was too hot and fresh. The rellanos was covered in some type of brown sauce. It was savory and good. I love chile rellanos. Not a lot make it good. But this one was good. I put the guacamole on my rice and went at it. I never got refill of my drink and they never offered me water. She asked if I was doing ok once and gave me the check before I was done. What if I wanted dessert? Hmm The service was nice and friendly. I wanted a refill. There was a lot of people in the restaurant is tucked inside same parking lot of gas station and liquor store. Next to the Oriental Market.

The tacos were good, and had a good amount of meat. They default to a medium-hot. Ask for mild or no sauce if you're sensitive. The chips and salsa bar is nice, and you can take some to-go. The salsas are all hot to extra hot. There is a pico that is not hot. We also enjoyed the sour cream avocado sauces. The burritos are over $13 each, and standard in size. Not extra large at all. I would go again for a nice treat.

They open early and are located in Downtown Roseville. Very spacious interior including booths and table seating as well as picnic benches outdoors. The salsa bar is located next to the soda fountain machine. This is a counter service and they will serve your food to your table. I'm not a pro when it comes to Mexican food but the Mexican-style Steak & Eggs featured perfectly grilled steak paired with fluffy eggs mixed together and came with refried beans, sour cream, avocado, salsa, shredded cheese and rice. Also, choice of warm corn or flour tortilla. Oh, also there were also fries... like French fries? Friendly help at the counter. Food came fast. Review #4001

Located in a lower part of Roseville, they are in a single building on the street with a cool mural on one wall. parking in the back is tight with about 10 spaces. They do have a small outdoor seating area up on the street side but it was closed when we were there. Not that we wanted to sit on the busy street anyway. Inside is simple and very echoey. Like a cafeteria with a fussy baby echoey...This is a walkup and order, get your number and they will bring your food to the table. Our server was nice once we got her attention and she came out from being back in the kitchen. We ordered two of the dinner plates. With both orders we looked at each other after trying each of the items, and shrugged our shoulders... Where's the flavor??? There was absolutely nothing. Even the salsa that came with the chips was flavorless. For $40+ it was so disappointing. And there are no other hot sauces or condiments to help out here unless you want to add salt and pepper. It was weird and just not good. For all these people stating THIS is AUTHENTIC Mexican food... well try another restaurant because this isn't it.
