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.

It's been a while since I have been inside Mercado Loco... let's see how they are doing!…read more Tonight, I did not bring enough of my homemade carnitas over to my clients and she was wanting carnita taquitos. So, I pulled into Mercado Loco because their carnitas is delicious! They have a very compact parking lot with a vendor on the sidewalk selling the doritos that you can put your sauce & lime on. I skipped him today and walked through those automatic doors... I know Mercado Loco has been here for decades. I grew up just around the corner and finally walked in about 5 years ago for the first time. Boy, was I missing out! At first, you notice this is a Mexican grocery store that also offers hot lunch/dinners. The price for some of their items are a little high than your typical grocery store... being that some of the items they offer are higher quality. However, sometimes, the prices do not match up when you get to the front. Cilantro had a price of $.69 on display, but I was charged $.75... it was only a tiny difference, but just putting it out there. I went straight to the hot case and a woman with a beautiful smile greeted me in Spanish and asked me what I would like. I ordered a pound of their carnitas. Oh, heck, give me some of those chichorrones, too. Next thing you know, I'm grabbing some of their hot salsa... I think their hot salsa is one of the best, hottest salsas that I have ever had that I can handle! We're talking nose running, but it's so good you can't stop! Next, I grab some king size corn tortillas. Some cilantro... they have wonderful produce available here... as well as those gorgeous purple dragon fruits when the season is right. After my pound is carnitas, pound of chicharonnes, cilantro, tortillas, and salsa... it came out to just a hair above $40! Ouch, but that is what you pay for when you want authentically cooked carnitas and chicharonnes. When I got home, I was a little disappointed that I was given some of the dried out pieces of their carnitas. When I say dry, it was too hard to eat. So I cut those parts off and tossed them (my carnitas blew their out of the water, btw.... just saying, lol.) The chicharon's were hot and miss throughout the entire time we ate them. Super hard, popping you he l can hear in your teeth, in your jaw... but some parts were delicious, succulent, crispy... yum! I love coming here earlier in the day. When I get tacos, they for 99% off the time on point! They are gorgeous and tasty... and get the HOT SALSA!

The meat tasted like Fabuloso…read more The guy at the counter said the meat fell on the floor. I thought he was joking because he laughed right after. But proceeded to give me the order i requested. After inspection at home the smell was faint. But once cooked it almost seems like the meat had been marinated in that fabuloso fragrent liquid smell. This place is dirty and filthy. People are careless of the quality just like the owner. He use to have an other location in Rancho Cordova. But the dirty details about their specials and promotions made me sexond doubt buying anything feom there. JOKINGLY i would ask if the meat was good this time. (Its fresh we just got this batch.)

Best authentic mexican food in Roseville! From their salsa bar to their Super Nachos, everything is on point! I would recommend getting their Super Burrito WET-the salsa added on top with shredded cheese compliments the yummy burrito. Other dishes I would recommend are the 'Tres Carnes' Burrito and their Super Quesadilla. The place gets really lively Friday and Saturday nights. A great place to go grab a good Mexican meal after throwing back a few at the pubs located in Old Town Roseville. read more

Actually, as most of my pre 1950's relatives came from El Salvador, and I have eaten pupusas along the S.F. Mission corridor Latin restaurants for decades, pupusas have to meet certain criteria to be rated from very good to excellent. Making pupusas requires a specific manual skill and preparation. This food truck is the currently only source in Placer County pupusas, Actually, even in Sacramento County, there are only two or three where fresh pupusas are made. I went here for the first time today, Sept. 13, '26, but look forward to going back. Mexican restaurants claiming to make pupusas use the wrong masa with coarse texture and improperly seasoned fillings. Central American food is different than Mexican food and must be judged differently, for those of you who do not know.

When craving beignets, forget about the leathery, dry, stale and over priced versions at Huckleberry cafe west of Foothill Blvd. Nina's makes cute mini beignets which are light and fluffy, and cheaper.
