Can't even go wrong with El Forastero. My girls love the self serve chips and salsa bar! There's always a ton of indoor seating too. Or if you're in a hurry the drive-thru is pretty quick! I love the quesabirria tacos with consome. My oldest is a fan of their potato tacos!!!!! read more

Good flavor, good portion, good price!!! Everything tastes good! Love their carnitas, carne asada, lengua, chile verde street tacos. Shredded beef is really good too, but a bit lack of flavor. You can never go wrong with their Sunday special $1.99 crispy tacos. Regular burritos include pico de gallo and guac. They also have a salsa bar with good options with unlimited chips. It's spacious and clean inside, and they open 24/7. read more

This place is not bad so I'm not sure why it has a low star rating. Are we asking for gourmet Michelin starred Mexican food? I think not. Just some burritos, tacos, etc and I thought my fish burrito was fresh and hearty. I think my only not so positive thing about it all was that they don't just give you salsa and you need to ask for some. I'll go back soon to try something else. read more

I came here the other day for breakfast burrito which they have the best I got the bacon with pintos extra salsa and potatoes and egg. Like always it was the bomb I wish the salsa was a little hotter I don't know what happened I thought they had one that was hotter. Good place great service and it's open 24/7 so I can get my burrito fixed whenever. read more

I used to come here very often I would order 6 tacos al pastor in the morning , slowly i noticed a few times that the al pastor wasn't cooked properly and I could notice off the smell and texture , I've been eating al pastor from puerto Pensaco, to Vallarta , to Long Beach/LA my hometown , never once have I smelled LITERAL pork coming from my hot steaming food , it smelt like fresh pork very unappetizing and unsettling, the last time I went here I came into the drive thru to get a large horchata for my RECENTLY GIVEN BIRTH wife , it was for her to lactate more , at the speaker I was told by the lady " this is not a Starbucks... I said "huh excuse me" I have not returned since , the young lady gave me attitude there not knowing I used to go around 6-7 am every morning after work , but yes that's the last this place has made any money from me ... goodluck , the gentleman all have great attitudes but the women got a lil too much goin on. Realistically she could've said " we don't serve drinks without purchase of food" but hey what do I know I only have about 9 years in the food industry. read more

The breakfast burrito grease was INSANE! The burrito was DRIPPING in greasey red oil from the chorizo. Idk who they are trying to kill but DO NOT eat their chorizo burritos. This could legit send anyone into a coma. Not to mention I had to clean all of this up bc it was DRIPPING in my car and floor. read more

I was originally excited when I saw a new restaurant was coming to the area (this location used to be a KFC) but was quite underwhelmed when visiting the restaurant. There is a drive thru so I decided to hop in line, and it moved quite slow. I ordered some chicken tacos and a burrito, and was frustrated when I arrived home and was missing guacamole on both of the tacos. The chicken on the tacos was also very bland and lacked any real flavor. I'm not sure if I will come back to this location again. read more

Came in to try at 4am wasn't sure what to expect. I ordered a Birria Quesadilla and Cheese Nachos with Guacamole. There seemed to be one person working there and was nice. At first when I went to pay he had misheard the order and had already made a Birria Taco instead of a Birria Quesadilla, but after making the taco, he quickly made the Birria Quesadilla, charged a bit less than the normal price for the Quesadilla and received the Birria Taco for free! There was a bit of a wait, but didn't mind at all since it was fresh and only one person there it seemed. Overall really great service and great food. Best Birria Taco I've had so far, definitely will come back. read more

Very clean, fast and affordable. I am vegan so these are not many choices without animal products. They do have fresh made to order juices. I got a veggie burrito which had whole beans and rice was quite good when pared with their variety of salsas. read more

Yay! Another Forastero!!! Pulled up to the Drive thru menu and the prices were pretty spendy and no value menu like Auburn. But I was already there and hungry for a breakfast burrito so pulled up to the order box. There's a sign taped over the speaker that says it's out of order and to pull up to the window to place order. No problem I pull up behind another car at the window receiving their order. As they pull away I pull up to the window and the cashier tells me the drive thru speaker is working again and to order there. I said Ok sure so I drove around the building and up to the box that still has the sign on it I waited patiently a few moments for her to take my order. Nothing. I wait another couple of moments. Still nothing. She KNEW I was going back to order but no one came to take my order. I surmised they didn't want my money so I obliged and drove off, never to return to this location again. read more

Finally been waiting for something like this in our area and 24hrs woohooo! Def going back to try more. read more

Absolutely disgusted. I tried this place for the first time. Ordered a breakfast burrito and a couple bites in there were chunks of hair cooked into the burrito with the egg. I can't even explain how disgusted I am, I threw up nonstop and I was throwing up hair. It was short hair but the amount there was it was ridiculous. Please don't eat here. They need a health inspection immediately. Reported them. read more

El Forastero - Threw it away I can't even open it I am just so disgusted. - Mexican Near Me - Rocklin, California

For a 24-hour establishment with great deals, I think it has all that you could ask for. That being said, I think it holds true that you get what you pay for. The food is genuinely alright--albeit not as warm as expected--but I think after having multiple items on their menu multiple times, i can safely assume that "alright" is all that it will ever be. read more

Actually got raw chicken. Absolutely disgusting. Never again. This was the worst food I've ever had

This place is a little over their skis with how much they charge versus the value offered. It's just as expensive as a sit down meal. The chips were stale, burrito was cold. I've been a couple of times but unless they improve their pricing and quality, I'll be keeping Carolina's as my 24/7 favorite. read more

Breakfast burrito was massive, even for $13! It was very potato-heavy though, unfortunately. Would've been so much better if there were more eggs and bacon. I'm giving 4 stars because all of the individual ingredients tasted good, including the salsas. I'll give them another chance, maybe with a California burrito next time and pray that they don't overload it with fries. read more

Their chicken is the bomb. I recommend that you try a crispy taco with chicken. It is loaded with juicy, tender, delicious chicken, so much so that you can barely fit any lettuce or cheese. The chicken burrito is another option; it's just chicken and cheese in a tortilla, but it's enormous. If I had to guess, it's at least half a chicken's worth of meat. I add beans and order it wet with enchilada sauce. The salsas and chips are tasty too. read more

This place is absolutely scrumptious, decently priced and they are exceptionally fast. I got a bean and cheese burrito and two carne asada tacos and they were done in maybe three mins AND they were good. If you are craving a quick burrito and/or tacos, you gotta go here. The lady who helped me was super sweet as well. read more

I eat here regularly and it's the best Mexican food around sometimes they skimp on meat if it's the end of they're batch and they don't give enough salsa they should give 5-6 instead of 2-4 because they have large portions but price is good and 19times out of 20 they don't skimp on meat all around exactly what you expect for you're moneys worth and very fast service nice staff nothing I would change about it except maybe lowering the price of burritos a couple dollars read more

This place is the only Mexican place in town that gives me the nasty toilet time trembles, I can withstand Taco Bell but not this stuff. Doesn't taste too bad but absolutely killed my gut for the rest of the day after eating (happened to my family too), also got a catering order but there were no tortillas included with the meats and sides and I found that a little strange. Probably will not be back read more

I've came here pretty consistently here and there only around 2-5 am as this place is 24 hours open I've never came here during the normal hours. I like the food here. I usually get a super burrito with carnitas with a side of chips and green salsa. This place is definitely my go to whenever I want something when it's very late which not many places are anymore especially a Mexican place. This place is pretty consistent with their portions. The burrito is a good big size burrito that can last 2 times to eat half and half which I like. I'm satisfied with the consistent quality of the food as it's not cold nor are the chips stale or anything. They are pretty good for being late at night when I get my food here. I recommend this place for anybody who wants a good meal late at night. read more

FINALLY Great Mexican food in Rocklin! The shrimp cocktail is a must and carnitas!! I hope they get alot of business. Location is a little hard to see and find read more

The lady who worked here looked at me crazy when I said I wanted a burrito with rice and meat and beans. She looked at me and didn't understand and then completely messed up my order. this place is very terrible. My burrito fell apart raw meat Inside of my burrito. Just don't go here. read more

I really wanted to like this place. I ordered a chicken burrito. It was so nasty. I couldn't even eat it. No flavor the chicken was tough in the tortilla even tasted tough. I will not go and I couldn't even eat it. read more

It was pretty good but DO NOT get the fries- $4 and they were so gross and hard - they should just take them off the menu. Taco and tostado were good for a fast food place. I would go again but fries NO! lol read more
