    Delicious, refreshing michelada!
    Julie P.

    Worth a stop for a delicious, refreshing michelada! Don't skip on this! While charging our EV we decided to try a local spot. No regrets!

    We came here three times during the week we were in Mammoth. The fish taco is still awesome but we also love the barria tacos. Now the fish taco has some competition when we visit. We'll each have to get fish tacos and the other burria tacos we can share. So good!

    Best breakfast burritos around! It comes with a free coffee too to get your day started. Chorizo is amazing.

    Was looking for a place to eat near the superchargers and found this place. Friendly staff and good amount of seating inside. Food came out fairly quick. The horchata tasted a bit watered down. The carne asada fries and had a good flavor and was tender but not a fan of the fries they used. The carnitas burrito tasted mostly like beans every bite. The ratio was off and had too much beans. Decent salsa here. Not a bad place to stop if you're around the area and is craving some Mexican food.

    Not the best customer service, alright food. Ordered the asada fries with no sour cream due to being allergic; then the correct asada fries with no sour cream were put on the table madly with no friendly gesture .

    Solid taqueria in Mammoth for Mexican food after a day on the slopes. Came here since it was a short walk from the supercharger. Really enjoyed the grilled flavor in the carne asada. I got the carne asada fries but thought that I would've enjoyed the nachos a bit better. The cheese wasn't really melted. I also got a carnitas burrito -- thought the flavor was good but a bit heavy on the beans. Carnitas flavor was delightful. Food comes out pretty fast and the staff is super nice! There are also a bunch of tables inside and they are pretty clean.

    Service was friendly by all staff members. Ordered a tripa taco and menudo bowl which comes with tortilla and a small drink. I don't order menudo too often but it was good but no oregano on the side. Tacos were big to the price matches. We had the carne asada fries and that was good. They are the FIRST place I've been to that uses the not-so-typical battered fries similar to Rally's which I thought was great. I wish more places did that. The self serve salsa bar was good (warning the red hot sauces have some heat to them if you're not used to it). Will come back if in town.

    Al pastor breakfast burrito

    Underrated restaurant in Mammoth! We got Al pastor breakfast burrito and Al pastor regular burrito. Lots of flavor and great condiments/salsa bar! This place needs more love. Kinda hot in the morning in mid June. Great service too!

    Have you had the good fortune to enjoy a street taco in Tijuana Mexico. The perfect combination of charred carne asada, salt, warm corn tortilla, fresh onion and cilantro. It's a humbling experience. Or perhaps you've had a breakfast burrito, with crispy potatoes, farm fresh eggs and cheese. You wonder how could such a satisfying flavor come from tortillas, green salsa and common breakfast ingredients. It's surprisingly delicious. Well, Salsa Taqueria is not that. Although their salsa and pico are on par, their breakfast burrito is so lack luster it does not warrant a photo. Their hard shell chicken taco plate provided a key hole perspective into dry flavorless rice, boring refried beans and fall apart taco shells. But what they lack in flavor, they make up for in volume. If you want a lot of mediocre Mexican food at a high price point. This is the place for you. In their defense- The carne asada taco isn't bad. It's cilantro heavy. But not bad.

    This place is so good! It definitely hit the spot and has a great menu selection. It has indoor and outdoor seating and you can't beat the view of the mountains in the background. In the same area, there is the Distant Brewery, if you want to stop by for a beer. I got the 3 enchilada combo plate with shredded chicken and my hubby got the meat combo plate. Both were bomb! Highly recommend. Also, I don't know if they moved but they have a ton of indoor seating (not like the past reviews stated, so I am assuming they moved or got more space).

    Salsa's Taqueria is a wonderful little gem of a Mexican restaurant in Mammoth Lakes! When I worked in Mammoth for a few years I'd dine regularly at Salsa's, usually two to three times a week! Wonderful staff, delicious food! Granted their dining area is tiny with something like five inside tables... but when it's warm outside, al fresco (outside) dining is available! Plus there's always takeout. I've tried many items off the menu: love their fish tacos! Plenty of other delicious goodies too like Carne Asada Fries, Quesadillas, Taquitos, etc. Salsa's Taqueria Mammoth Lakes menu here https://order.toasttab.com/online/salsastaqmmth

When we arrived the restaurant was fairly empty. Around 5:30. That should have been a clue.... When we requested them to put tables together they were so rude and acted like we were severely inconveniencing them. We're out to dinner with friends on vacation so excuse us for wanting to all sit together in your empty restaurant! When it was time to order I nicely asked if it was easier for the server to divide the checks by our 3 families as we ordered or wait until they brought us the bill. Server says neither could be done. Their "system" wouldn't allow it. It would be impossible.. So I said that was odd because I eat out at least 3 or 4 times a week and usually it's not a problem.. So I offer what I thought was a reasonable solution ... They seemed so put out that they had to put together 3 small tables for our group so I suggested entering the order as 3 separate tables .. Nope! Couldn't be done. Food wouldn't come out at the same time. I said we didn't mind that. I even pulled our table a little away from the other 2 and said ... Ok, now we're our own table.. Nope! Couldn't be done.. best they could do is put everything on one check and we'd have to figure out how to divide it up ourselves and they could run separate cards. Now here's the thing if you're reading this thinking I'm just whining and being unreasonable.... I'm giving them my business.. it ended up being over $300 of business for them. I own my own business so I know the value of customer service. If I make a reasonable request for something that is done all the time at other places and they flatly refuse and do that with attitude,,, that is a horrible customer service. They do realize they're in a service industry,right??. When they tell me that my request isn't possible thats a lie because I do it all the time. What they are really saying is that they don't WANT to do it or are refusing to try to figure out a way to accommodate our request. Normally I tell the server that if they can't figure out a way to fulfill my simple request and we have to do it ourselves I'll just deduct some from their tip since I have to do their job and it seems they don't want to be inconvenienced. But since we were a larger group they automatically hit us with a service charge. So instead, next time we'll take our large group to Gomez's which I hear is better and hope the servers are more friendly and more accommodating.

It has officially become our absolute favorite go-to spot in town. The ambiance is super unassuming and full of character. When you first walk in, it just looks like a small, local Latino grocery store stocked with great specialty ingredients. But as you head towards the back, you discover an absolute powerhouse of a taqueria kitchen. There's a tiny, quaint seating area inside where you can eat, or you can grab it to go. It completely side-steps the typical crowded, pricey resort-town vibe for something authentic and cozy. The food is spectacular. Whether you're getting their street tacos (the al pastor and asada are fire) or a hefty California burrito after a long day outdoors, the meats are perfectly seasoned, juicy, and served piping hot with great salsas. The quality is top-notch and the prices are incredibly fair for Mammoth. If you want a consistent, delicious meal that hits the spot every single time, skip the tourist traps and come straight here!
