After a long day paddleboarding out on the lake, the hunger hit me like a WWE folding chair. I'm floating around searching for food on my phone and realize my favorite taco spot closes in 3 minutes. I literally hit the "noooooo" out loud on the water like somebody just canceled taco Christmas. So now I'm panic searching while trying not to fall off the board and came across this spot less than 2 miles away in Old Folsom. Mission one was parking and let me tell you... parking in Old Folsom is basically a trust exercise with the universe. Walked in and immediately got greeted which already put me in a better mood because at this point I was one skipped meal away from becoming dramatic. Ordered 3 carne asada tacos with rice and beans and the gentleman at the counter tells me they've been there 10 years. I'm thinking alright sir... talk spicy to me then. What made me laugh was this man was doing EVERYTHING. Taking orders, cleaning tables, cooking food, probably could've fixed my paddleboard if I asked him. Meanwhile the restaurant was spotless too. Dude was moving around like he drank three espresso shots and said "I got this." Then the food came out and man... first bite had me questioning my loyalty to my old taco spot. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and messy in the best way possible where you know your shirt might become collateral damage. The rice and beans? Some of the best around Sacramento and I will stand on that. Ended up leaving full, happy, and honestly thankful my original taco plans failed because this place absolutely showed out. read more

As I always say, take my reviews of Mexican restaurants with a grain of salt. Of all cuisines, Mexican is not my favorite, so i try to be fair. I went with my daughter and her boyfriend here for a quick bite, during a relaxing day in old town Folsom. The menu is run of the mill. It is basic run of the mill quick service restaurant....tacos, burrito, quesadillas...and your choice of protein. I originally ordered a fish quesadilla, but he told me after we paid that the fish is pretty mixed (??) with pico de gallo. I got a meat quesadilla instead. I didn't know a fish could be "pre-mixed," but whatever, he quickly made the new order. Oh...and I prefer my quesadillas to taste of gooey melted cheese....not flavorless UNMELTED filler While nice on the surface, he didn't offer to refund the difference in cost between the two items. Probably coincidence, but.... He told us AFTER we paid, and didn't refund us. This is not different from numerous other similar restaurants. Decent enough that if friends wanted to go I'd make the best of it, but most likely won't be recommending this in the future read more

We recently tried Sutter Street Taqueria and unfortunately it didn't live up to our expectations. My burrito was incredibly small for the price, and the meat lacked flavor. My husband ordered a breakfast burrito and described it as "okay" not bad, but nothing that stood out. On a positive note, the restaurant was very clean and well-kept. However, it was surprisingly empty for a weekend, which should have been a clue. Overall, the food didn't justify the cost, and we probably won't be returning. read more

Took 30 minutes to get 2 tacos. Never again. Not sure what the deal is with this place. But 30 min for 2 tacos ???

Worst food and service in the area. If you don't mind bland dry chicken or just overall gross food in a dirty environment, then this place is for you! Save your money and your stomach and do a hard pass here. read more

Really tasty place! They are super quick and friendly, and the food is made right in front of you. Shredded chicken burrito is my favorite, and we love the tacos too. We tried the carne asada and al pastor and both were delish but the al pastor was amazing. Would and will return read more

Although their ac wasn't working during our visit on a hot day, that did not stop the two wonderful people working behind the counter! It only made me admire them more for their hard work and dedication to the establishment and service. The food was amazing, the service was amazing and the outside and inside seating was perfect. read more

I stopped in here while my daughter was getting a tattoo around the corner to grab some lunch. The food is extremely overpriced for the amount of food they give you and very bland. I'm honestly surprised that they have stayed open this long. Not to mention, the dining area looked really dirty, and appeared as if nobody had mopped the floor that day. I was really hoping it would be good because I'm down on Sutter Street quite often but it's just not. Save your money and go to taco exxpress instead, their food is way better. read more

The food was horrible. I saw a rat by the bathroom. It was cold when I got it. and overpriced read more

My husband and I were hungry for Mexican food and found this place. I have never seen such a filthy establishment and should have not even ordered! One taste of my burrito made me want to vomit! My husband didn't have the guts to even try! We walked out and will never return! read more

The only thing I'm gonna say is worse service around! I walked in and I have obviously a broken leg and I asked the guy behind the counter if I can use your bathroom, and he told me "can't you read the sign, bathrooms are guest only" I apologized and I walked away. Again worst service. I hobbled across the street to a bar and I told him hey can I use your bathroom and the lady told me " sure that that's what bathrooms are for!" and smiled. She even opened the door for me because the door was in a cramped up place. Never going back again!!! read more

The Super Shrimp Burrito is excellent. Lots of shrimp, nice balance of extras and lots of flavor. Love this place!!

I hate leaving bad reviews for small businesses. However, I cannot recommend this place. The tacos were terrible. Bland chicken. The Al pastor was ok. The carne asana was the best one but not great. I didn't even eat much of the chicken taco. The chips and salsa were good! The salsa was spicy and good. The sauce they give you for your food was also good. I will not be going back. read more

We came in for a nice dinner with a family of 8. We wanted to order a couple of family meals and were told those can only be ordered when the manager is there. It was on the menu so that was disappointing and we left and are elsewhere. read more

I really wanted this place to be good but it's just not. Totally bland and forgettable food with zero customer service skills. Small businesses usually have good food and nice people. Not this one! read more

This place is the true meaning of "hole in the wall". I've been meaning to try food here but am not often in this part of town. My kids and I went here for lunch and this is what we experienced... Service: We were greeted right away. I tend to get anxious to try to places because it can take me time to order. So I appreciated that there was no pressure to order quickly. Payment was quick and easy. We got or food out quickly but I am mindful that we ordered right before the lunch crowd came in. Food: Delicious! I only bought food for the kids but after having a bite, I ended up ordering my own plate. Staff helped me with making a decision and ordered their super taco with carnitas. It was soooo good. The portion was just right since I didn't want something too small or too big either. In general, meat portions were excellent. I also love their salsas which I feel can make or break the meal. Location: There isn't a lot of dining inside but there are areas outside you can sit and eat. You wouldn't be able to have a large party here. This side of town can get a bit busy too, so parking can get difficult depending on the day. But the food here definitely overrules this for me. I would definitely come here again and consider them for catering for future events. read more

3 strikes and you're out! Gave it a shot. Multiple times. Can't do it. Just extremely bland. Zero flavor. Won't see our family again.

bro don't go here if you want real mexican food like taco bell is better than this place i ordered nachos they gave me burnt chips with melted cheddar on top like they threw it in the microwave super salty wish we didn't tip before hand cuz wtf i should've went to taco bell if we wanted some microwaved nachos it honestly would've been better read more

This place is generous with their ingredients. Been here a few times now in the past few months and not disappointed. And it is a nice experience to eat outside (when covid times allow it) on the historic Folsom street. Such a nice vibe. The orders has been made in a timely manner. The staff has been helpful and nice each time. Cheese quesadilla is average which is not a bad thing. No surprises there. It is great to be able to choice from different preps of chicken (I chose shredded) for my burrito. The season is good and packed with chicken. I appreciate that they didn't skim on the protein. Parking is near by in several directions and other stores to visit nearby before or after your meal. Take out is also well done with having good wrapping on the food items. read more

Sitting right next to Reset on Sitter Street sits this little taqueria. I was able to call in my order so that I could just stop by to pick it up. They said it would take about 10 minutes so off we went. We arrived in 15 and they were furiously making our tacos still. The crew of teenage boys was very nice and I had my food within 10 minutes of arrival. 18 street tacos for $71 is a bit pricey, but let's see how it tastes. Grilled chicken - 2/10 - Soooooo dry I'm actually amazed at how dry they got that. I can feel my soul being sucked into the chicken Shredded chicken - 3/10 - Plain boiled chicken...no spices on it whatsoever Chicken Chile verde - 4/10 - Where's the Chile verde? It tasted mostly of shredded chicken and I couldn't find much sauce Carnitas - 5/10 - My wife makes a more flavorful and crispy yet tender version and she just learned how. Carnitas Chile verde - Carne Asada - 6/10 - Decent flavor but I prefer smaller dices in my tacos. Could use more seasoning. Well, I was pretty disappointed in all of the tacos BUT I will say that they have a very friendly staff and they put a huge portion of meat in every taco. The tortillas were also very fresh tasting but I simply cannot recommend anybody go here. Sorry fellas! read more

Stopped here for a quick bite. The best thing was the cashier - she was a boss! Got our order right, had the food out fast! Typical Mexican fare. Ok prices. read more

This place deserves all the great hype it can get. By far, it's the best version of a Mission-style burrito that I've found outside of the Mission. Our group had people who didn't like spice, vegetarians, and others with food allergies, and everyone found something to eat here (and everyone raved about their food). My only wish was that I had saved enough room to get some nachos. Next time! read more

One of the better Mexican restaurants in the area - and we're pretty picky, having moved here from Santa Barbara. However, they do not appear to have set hours? It seems like every time we walk down they are closed! If you want Mexican food any day after 4:30 pm then you may be better off heading to another taqueria, because it seems like they're closed 75% of the time. Today, a Friday, they were closed when we arrived at 4:45. Another family arrived at the same time, hoping to have dinner there. We were all disappointed. Please, please fix the hours situation. I just want to give you my money. read more

Second time trying this place and now know we definitely won't be back. The food is just okay. Not much flavor. Rather blah. I order the Al Pastor taco and husband ordered carnitas burrito. Both were unremarkable. Don't know how this place is staying in business?? The owner needs to eat at Taco Loco and take some notes! read more

Came to Folsom to walk around with my partner we stopped by since it didn't seem too crowded. The food was delicious. Definitely recommend!! The customer service was excellent! We got a carnitas burrito & a pastor quesadilla, it was 11/10!! Must try this spot! read more

Reading NextDoor so see what neighborly drama was going on, I came upon a recommendation for this place. How naive. If you can't get tacos right, no matter how compelling the rest of the menu might be. Who puts beans, just plain beans on top of tacos? And then bland, unseasoned tomato. You already put onion and some cilantro there- why not bel less lazy and make an actual pico de Gallo? I gotta admit there were clever with the meat: it wasn't just asada meat, but also ground beef mixed it. It makes it juicier but greasy as well. The kids, really, kids who skateboard in front of the establishment during their break, do and ok job tending the shop. They just gotta remember to clear up then table and salsas more often, as leaving them in the heat makes them grow bacteria. Specially if they stick them in the fridge later. May they continue to succeed based on their pandering to the locals. read more

Yet again not open at 7:15 on a Friday night. Disappointing to come all the way here and they're not open.

Amazing service, great food, friendly workers. All around one of my favorite restaurants to go to in folsom. Would absolutely recommend to anyone. - Kevin Jonas read more

First time there today and everything about our experience was great! It had good music and good food! The service was also a great experience! Or waitress was very friendly! read more

I will never know what this place tastes like. On Yelp it says it open at 10 AM on Fridays. Their Facebook pages says 10 AM. Arrived there in front of the store at 10 AM with two people inside. We waited 30 minutes with the employees making eye contact with us as they see us pacing outside the front door. We overheard as 1 of the employees made a comment that they wouldn't be open until 11 AM. NOT ONE employee could come out and give us a heads up. Rather give business to someone who cares about customers. read more

I came in on a Tuesday evening (around 6:30PM) you can tell the employees OBVIOUSLY are linked romantically. They made our burritos incorrectly, and were flirting with each other the whole time. Definitely do not come here on a Tuesday evening. Odds are one of their parents owns the spot. read more

First time trying this spot, I walked in and all the tables were visibly dirty, so I chose to eat outside. The food- Chipotle has more flavor than this place. Just keep walking and get food at one of the other places in old Folsom. I gave it one star because the kid at the register was nice. read more

We decided to go to Sutter street Taqueria on a day when atmospheric river was pouting down. We got a table next to the window to watch the rain and enjoy the food. Such a wonderful experience. Food was great and so was the service. The owner came and chatted with us for a few minutes as well. read more

Wasn't busy, so no wait time, which was nice. The woman said they were out of a couple key items (carnitas and grilled chicken). I got the shredded chicken quesadilla. I did not get any extra sides, because I heard her say that sour cream would be an extra $2.00. Got my food and the chicken was boiled meat with what seemed like no seasonings. I probably would come back but wouldn't think to come here over some other place. read more

I am sorry but it just wasn't good. My taco was just meat and beans. Who puts beans in their taco? The burritos were bland and mostly rice and beans. The shrimp in the shrimp taco looks like it's still frozen and the corn tortilla was still cold. I'm all for supporting local businesses but the product has to be at least decent. read more

Craving some Mexican food while in Lake Natoma area, we ended up at Sutter Street Taqueria. The order: Carne Asada Super Burrito - filled with carne asada, beans, rice, sour cream, and guacamole Two super Tacos - carnitas and al pastor with avocado slices Chips with guacamole 2 drinks - soda fountain and ice tea options Burrito really hit the spot. Flavor is spot on, and really filling, since the thing weighed about a pound and a half. They have spicy salsa - green and red charred salsa - both are spicy. They have a squeeze bottle of each for easy dispensing. I preferred to squeeze these in a plastic cup for dipping. Everything was super fresh and made right in front of you. I will definitely be back. read more

The wife and I ordered a couple breakfast burritos that were huge but boring as hell and as bland as you can get. I ordered a carnitas breakfast burrito that was "peppered" ever so slightly with pcs of meat and a minimal amount of cheese. I felt the scrambled eggs were something you might get served in the military or god forbid if you were incarcerated. The wife got a vegetable breakfast burrito and left half. Their lunch and dinner menu might be their claim to fame, but they need to stop serving breakfast. 6 hrs after forcing what we could down, our stomachs are still turning over and heavy.

The service here was painfully slow. Painful. One girl making.....one...burrito....at....a time. Won't be back.

Ate here for first time. Friendly staff. Food was made within 5 minutes. Ate a veggie burrito (pinto bean, rice, pico, lettuce, guac, sour cream, cheese) and a regular burrito (rice, meat, beans, chees, pico). The burrito quality is average and so is the size. They put a ton of rice in both burritos. They didn't put much of other stuff. Rice is good. But I wish they'd proportion it better. They put very little pico in the burritos too. I asked for no meat in my regular burrito. I asked for them to add a little more of rice or something to make up the difference. *They don't make substitutes or add more to make up if you leave something out.* charge 25 cents per water cup. 10.25 for the regular burrito. 12.25 for the veggie burrito (same price as a super burrito They sell). Restaurant clean. Music. Outdoor seating and indoor. Becsuse of the customer experience and the quality of taste of burritos I dont think I'll come back. Sad. read more
