    I ordered breakfast burritos for my son and I. I ordered the chorizo burrito. I asked them to cut it in half. I took a bite out of one side and pulled out A USED BAND-AID!! I called them and they wanted to remake my burrito. Absolutely not.

    Birria Ramen is full of meat & noodles. The cilantro, onion, and lime were on the side. The temperature was piping hot!

    Wait... Taco Exxpress has been here for how long and I am finally trying a piece of Heaven? What's wrong with me? Located in Rocklin on Granite & Rocklin Drive, Taco Express stands out with its brought colors. The send most notable thing was the drive-thru. As you pull in and go through the parking lot, closest to the corner is the beginning of the drive-thru. There is a menu with many many options. Since it was the weekend, menudo and pozole are available. I couldn't tell if there was seating inside but there is definitely seating outside! Jenita was craving a taco salad with carnitas. I didn't see it on the menu (it could've been there, I was rushing through and my eyes may not have caught it). They put refried beans in it as she wanted, along with sour cream, guacamole, and melted cheese in a crispy flour tortilla. She also got a jamica augua fresca. I decided to go with the birria ramen. Lovely consummé, filled with ramen noodles and lots of beef. You can't rush delicious food, so there was a little bit of a wait. The man at the window was polite and worked fast! Great customer service! When we got back to Jenita's, I set her up with her taco salad. I sat next to her and we ate out of our Styrofoam containers. By the time we got back, set her up, and took my pictures, about 20 minutes had gone by since we got our food and my birria ramen was still too hot too eat, but that was a great thing! They serve piping hot food!!! Jenita said her taco salad with carnitas was delicious. My birria ramen was so good! So good, that I wanted to go back and get more food, but I'm going to be patient and look forward to my next visit!

    Ive been a patron of this location for about 3 years. Ive only had one other issue besides the one that I am writing about today, and that was about a year ago I ordered grilled chicken on my food and it was raw. But THIS..this experience is the thing that will prevent me from ever visiting this location or potentially any location again. I ordered Loaded fries with grilled chicken and when I turned the light on and saw my food, the fries were literally grey! It was dreadful. Not only did the few bites I ate cause me to throw up continuously that night, I was sick for days afterwards and had to go to the ER to get IV fluids and anti nausea meds. Experiences like this are why I have a strict "no take-out in the dark" policy because imagine if I kept eating before turning the light on . I literally could have died. Potatoes leak a poison called solanine that is so toxic it will kill you in large quantities. Something has gone very wrong at this place so I won't ever be back.

    No extra cheese no extra tomato no soda I had to eat my lunch with no drink. I should've checked. It's my fault, ‍

    It never fails every time I go to this place the communication is terrible. I guess I always ask for extra cheese and tomatoes. This time I asked for Coke and didn't get it. Also, I believe I paid for it all I didn't get a receipt. I guess it's all my fault in having faith that it'll be done right this time darn it.

    So much better than El Forestero. This had a perfect ratio of egg, potato, and meat (unlike el forestero which was huge, but was way too potato-heavy). Good flavor, salsa was good, service at the drive thru was friendly. Showed up right when they opened and they had my burrito ready super fast. Will be back for sure!

    I was in the area, so wanted to give another location a chance. Compared to the Power Inn location, drive through staff were much nicer & food came out very quick. 10/10 - Bean & Cheese Burrito: I had a hankering for a basic burrito & this one was delicious! The burrito was pretty big & full of yummy filling. While still pricey, this one was worth it. 5/10 - Carne Asada Fries: the fries didn't seem fresh & very soggy; carne asada lacked flavor. Pretty disappointed by these.

    We grabbed dinner at Taco Express tonight and it was amazing. The food was delicious and the service was great! We tried street tacos, a super burrito, a fat burrito, quesaburria, rice, beans and churros.

    TORTA is Good!

    This place is a good stop right off the freeway. If I'm ever in the area again, I will swing by, they lose a star because they dont have any healty options like a salad but that's okay. Im cool with that. The place has a restaurant vibe but a fast food experience. The service was good and I would recommend going there if you are near.

Their food was quite tasty and is clearly the reason this place is as popular as it is. The restaurant is not very large ~ one small-ish main room and an adjacent enclosed patio. Plus a few picnic tables under a shady canopy out front. We were seated out in the enclosed patio area where it seems they've tried to do some limited decorating. Service was friendly but a little on the slow side, although our food came out fairly quickly after we ordered. I got the super burrito and it was huge. Stuffed full of all the good stuff and grilled on one side. Simple but good, although it could have had the ingredients better mixed inside. (Ever read the hilarious blog post about the burrito that was rolled like a roll of Lifesavers? Oh, here's the rice. Next up, pico. Then beans. And here's the chicken. There is guac in here!) The hubby got the cheese chile relleno with mole, beans and a pyramid of rice. All delicious. Oh, and the chips were delightfully crispy and seemed super fresh and the two salsas were pretty tasty, as well. Prices were very fair, too! Good rec by our friends. I'd definitely go back, maybe for pick-up.

We talked to our friends and agreed that 6pm would be a good time to meet for dinner. My girlfriend called and they didnt' have any reservations available for 6pm.I called around Noon to see if we talked to someone else we could make a reservation at 6pm. They were very polite over the phone. The didn't have any reservations at 6pm, but they had a table for 4 at 6:30 pm if we didn't mind sitting outside. I took the reservation with the hopes we could get seated earlier. Their outside and inside dining rooms are about the same size. We arrived at 6pm hoping to get seated early and by 6:05pm the entire party was here and we were seated 10 minutes later at 6:15pm. We were seated a the first table out the side door against the wall. This worked great at I was able to put my package on the grown next to the wall, it was out of the way, but I could still see it so I didn't forget it. The fans were on over all the outside tables but ours. It was cool/warm enough to be comfortable in slacks and a T-shirt. No sweater was needed and I wasn't sweating either. The ice water was really nice. Soon as we were seated they laid us out menus. Shortly after chips, salsa, and bean dip were delivered. Then after a little bit the waters arrived. Our server asked for our drink orders while we looked at the menus. I ordered the Chile Relleno: Battered poblano chile stuffed with Jack cheese and red chile pork sitting atop black bean puree and serrano salsa. Topped with slaw and queso cotija. It was very tasty, but lacked cheese. I did not enjoy melty jack cheese oozing out of the pepper and that's the whole reason I ordered this dish. Tower Cafe in Sacramento makes it right. Their Chile oozes with melty jack cheese. The black bean purée must have melded into the Salas as I didn't see or taste it. It was topped with slaw that I enjoyed. It gave the dish a little crunchy. The red chili pork was very tender and I didn't notice any fat. I would not order this again My husband had the Salmon Machamantel Atlantic salmon, mole manchamantel, grilled broccolini, jicama slaw. I found the salmon to be very pleasant. It didn't taste fishy at all and I'm very sensitive to fish. The Mole sauce was non descriptive. The broccolini was cooked to perfection, not too cooked that it was limp and not undercooked so it's too firm. He would order it again. Cilantro Rice- All the meals came with the rice and it was very tasty. It was kind of odd that it was on a separate plate, but it made sense as there wan't room on our dinner plates. Presentation was lacking. We shared the Caesar Salad. It was very tasty, but awkward to eat as the pieces of lettuce were huge. They served us the entire leaf. Bathrooms- It was a small bathroom with only two stalls. If you need to wait it would be better to wait outside like I did. It was a bit awkward. The bathroom was well supplied and pretty clean. Flushing is an issue. The toilet doesn't have a lot of flushing power and it took my 3 flushes to get the seat covers to go down and not leave debris. Parking: We parked near Pet Food Express, which was close to the restaurant. It looked tight, but after we drove around we found lots of spots at the back of the lot. There is no close parking spots so if you have a hard time walking this can be an issue. Their downfall, the flies. There were so many flies swarming us that it was uncomfortable. I hope the other patrons were't dealing with the gigantic flies that were swarming our table and landing on our table and food. I searched other reviews and I'm not the only one who was swarmed by flies. Ambiance. It was ok, the music was loud and it was hard to hear each other as we chatted and caught up. I think there is more ambiance inside with the decor.
