I ordered a breakfast burrito, was ready when I arrived and it was delicious. Glad your business re opened again.

I came in to buy Barbacoa what I got is total . The meat is so tough like they scraped the bottom of the carnita pan . In the past the barbacoa was moist and soft . This is all hard crunchy meat you cannot break apart with your hands . You can break a tooth it's so hard . read more

Just wanted to let you know that I picked up my tamales this morning, and they are absolutely delicious. Perfect balance of meat and masa. Thank you very much. Thought you would like to know when something is perfect. read more

We have purchased our XMAS tamales from here for years. But this year they were terrible. The masa was so thick, dry and tasteless. Meat filling was less than a tablespoon. I spent almost $200 on 6 dozen tamales and we threw most of them away they were so bad. Very, very disappointed this year. read more

Please work on the Tamales. They were really dry. The meat was tender and it was very flavorful but the masa needs some work. It' crumbled to easy. The green salsa is absolutely delicious read more

Good food good service best masa for tamales good people. Always go here it's worth the trip from Tulare. read more

If you are ever in the Visalia/Farmersville/Exeter area, you NEED to stop here. I honestly, can't wait to go back. I was in Farmersville recently for two days back to back and I'm sad that I didn't go here the first day and come back the second day. My family and I came here to eat from the restaurant side of this cute little one stop shop. They have everything here! A little counter straight ahead of where you walk in, to order hot food to go, and another restaurant style "order and sit" area off to the side. Then a market to your right when you walk in, that includes freshly made pan-dulce. I cannot tell you how many times I have looked for pan dulce this good. And I finally found some!! So our lunch visit...we came on Sunday, probably at a time after church, so it was busy. We waited in line, for a little and it probably took about ten minutes for our food and horchatas. Which in retrospect, is SO FAST, for the quality of food they make. I am happy to wait longer if necessary for how great the food was. Also, even though it was busy, the staff never lost their cool. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Even the staff cooking the food in the back, would look over and smile. That is worth 5 stars for customer service alone. Food- best authentic Mexican food that I have had at a restaurant in a long time. My mom ordered the spicy costillas (pork ribs) with rice and beans with corn tortillas ($8.49 for the plate); My tia got a carne asada tostada ($5.49) and I got the La Mejor Burrito Mojado (wet burrito) ($7.49). The horchatas for a Medium was $3. A small soda was $1. I can't even tell you, how happy I was with the prices. Again, 5 stars for cost for what you get. Taste- To say that this place has the best Mexican food that I have had at a restaurant in a long time, says a lot, but it truly was delicious. You seriously can taste the authenticity! You can tell that they use high quality ingredients, they take care in what they make and everything really is made fresh. You can just taste it. I even watched them make home-made corn tortillas, and when I realized my burrito was made with a home-made flour tortilla, I about died from happiness. Maybe the only thing, is if you like your food on the saltier side, you should probably grab some salt packets- which are available on the counter. Yes, taste earns 5 stars. Overall interior/exterior- You can tell that they try to keep the place clean- inside and out. We did have to ask someone to clean a table for us outside, but that was a quickly handled request. There was a patio cover and we enjoyed the weather that day. The inside has greenery on the ceiling and they have lots of gift like items spread out along the walls. The market side also gets 5 stars, for excellent pan dulce, and such friendly cashiers! They know how to create conversation and you can tell they enjoy working here. At least they all made it seem that way! Great work La Mejor Del Valle. You truly are La Mejor!! read more

Love this place, Been coming here for over 25 years, and every visit we have been treated with friendly welcomes as if we are family. It is only 15 mins away from home and well worth the drive, because we have never been disappointed with any of the food. Walking into the market/deli is like walking into my Abuelita's house...with the smell of freshly made food and Pandulce. Everyone is so helpful and remember faces, which makes you feel right at home. This is a must visit and take your time walking around looking At everything, with seating inside and outside with large tv's in the patio. Follow their Instagram to see the amazing food. read more

Hands down the best tamales!!!! We drive an hour and a half for these, and I always buy a dozen, or two to take home. Nothing in our town can match these, even the award winnings up and down California doesn't measure up! Their food are . You won't be disappointed! read more

I've only been to La Mejor once as I've heard raves in the past from others about their delicious pork tamales. I bought a half dozen, just enough to judge them for myself, this was a couple of days before Christmas 2023. My wife and I had two for dinner that night and yes, they were very good. So here it is a few days after New Years and we're out of tamales, so I planned to go back today and pick up a dozen. So here I am watching the local morning news on T.V. and what pops up? La Mejor has burnt down! Looks like a total loss. Owner said they hope to rebuild. read more

I ordered a dozen tamales (cautious amount as I never had been there) as I saw them announced on the news and they looked good. I bought pork tamales, they were not that good as the t.v. claimed. Disappointed but they do sell the masa and next time I may order the masa and make them myself. The price was 26. plus tax-so not too bad if you just want to have tamales for Christmas without going through the trouble. read more

I didn't get to eat when zi came to visit my Sister in Woodlake in May 2023. I bought a lot of Mexican Bread but I didn't think to check it. It was hard & old. So here I'm back & today it was fresh. The store is beautiful outside and very neat & organized inside. There's a eating area inside as well as one area outside. We ate a Chile Relleno and a BIG, FAT CARNTA BURRITO! SO GOOD!!!! The Burrito was full of lots of Carnitas. The rice & beans delicious!! So was the Salsas! The Burrito was very warm. It made me enjoy it cause it stayed warm. Good service. read more

I miss this store so much it hurts. The employees, the food, the community to this day are unmatched. I would travel 45 minutes just to get mass amounts of takeout and their delicious bread. read more

Finally got a chance to try La Mejor's Enchilada Night (Thursday-Sunday nights). I had the chicken enchiladas and a bacon wrapped hot dog. The food was delicious and the service was quick. The enchiladas were authentic Mexican enchiladas topped with lettuce, tomatoes and Mexican cheese just like my momma makes them! The bacon wrapped hot dog was topped with grilled onions and bell peppers and was also delicious. Will definitely return to try the rest of their specialty menu! read more

We have ordered from here before, Tamales and never had a problem until this December 2020. We ordered 2 dozen tamales and they were ok. We also bought Quacamole & Salsa. Well, the Quacamole caused a family member, the only one who ate it to get food poisoning. I've called them, emaied them, & have still not been able to talk to a manager or owner. They also would not redeem their own offer listed on Yelp. If you purchase the Quacamole be warned it may not be fresh. We will not order from this place again. Horrible service and bad quality. To be fair the tamales rank around 3 stars. The burritos & tortas 2.5 stars. Service 0 stars. read more

Great Mexican food, probably the best in the area. If you're in town stop by, you won't regret it.

By far the best tortillas I have ever tasted! I love this place. Always so busy and the food is over the top excellent. The tamales are amazing too. Best store in town for all kinds of needs. read more

I normally do not give reviews to any businesses. But this was one of the worst ones that I have come across. The Service was horrible and disrespectful. The food was horrendous the beans were rotten and the meat was also rancid. The pork rinds were also rancid I do not recommend this place to anyone beware. read more

This spot has completely restored my faith in the "asada wet burrito." Came here on a Saturday at 10:30am and damn! The parking lot was full! Great sign! I haven't been here in about 6 months, saw a review from Belen M. who posted a few days ago saying this place had some Really Good "authentic" Mexican food so I had to get back down to see if she was right. She was! The staff was so wonderful and helpful! "I would've taken a pic of the whole burrito but right from opening the container my hunger got the best of me! It looked so good and the first bite tasted just like i thought it would! To be able to grab a couple of Mexican Cokes here was also a definite plus! Something about the flavor compared to American Cokes is no competition, the Mexican Coke will always come 1st! We waited about 5 to 7 minutes from the time we placed our order, the misses getting some "pan" which sadly the selection was a little scarce but that's ok! I managed to get me two Cokes "don't carry the Mexican Pepsi anymore" bummer! Oh well, Coke is still good! My wife was looking for something a little different and went for the chorizo breakfast burrito, I of course went for my "asada wet burrito" we both were very surprised and not disappointed! My burrito has been the best DAMN BURRITO I've had in a VERY LONG TIME! My wife said her burrito had perfect flavor and she'd DEFINITELY order one again! I gotta give a huge thanks to Belen M., If she didn't post such an AMAZING REVIEW! I don't think we would've came back down this way and we would not of refound our spot for some incredible Mexican food! Thank you so much to everyone working there today to make our experience one we will never forget! An experience worth coming back for more! read more

So this taqueria is located inside the store. They have another taqueria/restaurant off to the side but this review is for the deli counter part of the store. They have a lot of cool decore you can buy as well. But the tacos..... Definitely some of the best street tacos I've ever had! Their handmade tortillas are the stuff of legends! The short rib and barbacoa tacos are my favorite. The short rib can be a little spicy so just a heads up on that. read more

Since 1970, this family owned place has been a hot spot for awesome Mexican food in the Valley. Open daily, and I mean daily (365 days a year), that's right, they never close. You see, Holiday's are their busiest days, because everything else is closed. This includes, 4th of July, Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve (THE BUSIEST DAY OF THE WHOLE YEAR!), Christmas day, New Years (eve and day), just to name a few. Located on the south side of the small town of Farmersville, in Tulare County. On your way to Sequoia Park or Kaweah Lake (off of Highway 198), exit Farmersville Blvd, drive south about 2 miles and you'll run into it. So, everything here is homemade. They have their own tortilla factory next door, panaderia (Mexican bakery), Mexican Deli (always full of yummy dishes), Taqueria, Mexican Market, Caterting, Party Trays, and Fundraising. They have it all. From Pinatas, Mexican Pottery, dresses, candies, pretty much everything Mexican, they have. The most popular spot is their Deli and their Taqueria. Tamales are hand made daily, so are their chile rellenos. If you're a carnitas fan, man, this is the place for them!!!!! Juicy and so tasty! They have this deep beef, called Barbacoa. OMG! to die for. Chile verde is on point and their Chicharones are always so crispy and tasty. The deli has items such as tamales, rice, beans, chile verde, carnitas, chicharones, lonjitas, chile rellenos, chipotle meat, fajitas, fresh salsa's, guacamole, homemade chips, tostadas, tortillas and much more. Generations and Generations have been coming here since it first opened in 1970. You need a party tray for an event of a UFC fight, they have them. Their bakery makes these rolls, called BOLLIOS! YOU MUST TRY THEM!!!!, Cut them open, add some beans and some carnitas and you're in heaven!!! They recently remodeled the eating area and added more new tables and chairs. On Sunday's, this place is a madhouse! The lines are pretty long, but go by fast. People flock to this place and after church they swing by and grab food for the whole familia. Need to raise some money for a school or church or your kids soccer tournament's, then ask about their fundraising program they have to offer. They make fresh enchiladas and tamales for resale and organizations do really well. Just a couple of months ago, they had an order of over 700 dozen of Enchiladas for a school in Tulare as a fundraiser. Everything made from scratch and to order. In December, which are their busiest month, they sell EVERYTHING you need for your tamales and they make their own fresh MASA. Customer's from as far as Madera, Bakersfield drive here to buy there goodies for their tamales and of course, stock up from the deli to feed the family members at home. It's worth the drive to Farmersville, trust me!!!!! read more

Customer service is friendly. If you want authentic Mexican food you've come to the right place. Theres been a few time their carnitas are as salty as the sea but if you add cabbage and some great salsa, mmmm good. read more

Honestly. Why did I just find out this place exists? More importantly this is a small Mexican supermarket that makes their own food and of course their tortillas. Everything in this place smelled so good. Woke up on Sunday morning to get their bowl of menudo. Very very good definitely recommend it! Comes with home made tortillas that was the cherry on top. The broth was flavorful and you get enough food to get you full. I will definitely try their other dishes soon! The food looked so good and we were satisfied with our first meal that we got food to cater our upcoming party in a couple weeks! read more

Good food lots of choices decent prices decent portions. Will be back. Had a breakfast burrito and the Aztec burrito

I have been coming here for over 25 years. They have great Verde Salsa. We bought a pound of their carnitas and they was so mire fat than meat. Their salsa is still great but no comment on the carnitas. We won't go back. read more

Use to come here every weekend with my family, had it yesterday after not going for a while & i was Completely disappointed with the Chile verde, it had NO FLAVOR it tasted like unseasoned pork in water, the rice had no seasoning, the beans were delicious but that's the only thing, the tortillas weren't warmed up right they were still under cooked , also ordered the breakfast burrito for my husband and the potatoes were RAW and my son ordered a carnitas torta and received an asada torta, never in my life did I expect this , they use to be amazing, I'm not the type to go in and make a scene nor to call and complain and drive to farmersville from Visalia , I rather not return , read more

This is the original mexican supermarket before Vallarta decided to roll out everywhere and get corporate. Everything from your holiday masa for your tamales to your lunch or dinner. Everything from carnitas, barbacoa, chili verde, beans, homemade salsas. Anything you can think of they have and if you need it ahead of time you can always call it ahead especially if it's the weekend. read more

Excellent place to pick up Bbq carnitas buche all the awesome food and masa for tamales I pick up and hurry home to feed the family there tortillas are always hot and fresh and the salsa is pretty good we've eaten here since the early seventies and the recipe never changes.if anything it keeps expanding read more

This place has been a staple for me for years and years. Whether I am looking to get a burrito or looking to get hot prepared food to make my own tacos and burritos, I know the food here will always hit the spot. My daughter has a standing order of a 1/2 dozen tamales and some concha pan dulce for any time that I go. Its also a good place to get candy for pinatas or just Mexican candy for the sake of Mexican candy. Their pre-made salsas of varying types and heat levels are another reason I am usually here at least every other week. read more

Went there two months ago for some menudo and to try a little bit of everything there. Over all the chicharones and Carnitas are good just slightly on the salty side. The menudo felt like it was overly cooked and re cooked over and over again, the broth was too thick and got 4 or 5 burnt piece's of menudo. I tried to make it work added more water and spices but it just couldn't be saved. I said nothing about it but my guests did the same thing to their menudo and they couldn't finish it. After about an hour we all had a bad stomach ache and felt nauseous. Not sure if it was the menudo or the other items I purchased but definitely left a bad taste and memory of that place. I didn't want to write anything negative because I did have great experiences in the past but I just had to give a warning to others. The staff was friendly and the bread was good, I would just stay clear of the menudo. read more

The service was wonderful, place is very clean. Love the concept of having both a store and a restaurant, however, my husband and I were not as impressed as every other local with the quality of their food. Maybe we need to try something else, but the Carne Asada tortas were just ok. We intend to give their tamales a try, since we hear that they are fantastic. They must be a big seller because they sure sell out fast. Hopefully, I will be reviewing my post soon... stay tuned. read more

Delicious, fresh Mexican food. That's a powerful statement in itself. I highly recommend their barbacoa meat, you can even have a pack of tortillas warmed up for you on the spot to accompany your preferred choice of prepared meat. They have a huge variety of the Mexican candies as well. Highly recommend read more
