This restaurant is a bit tucked away and has a hole-in-the-wall feel, but the food was good and the people were friendly. I really enjoyed their special, which consisted of a bowl of fideo and three chicken taquitos. I've never seen taquitos served this way, and I really liked it! The taquitos were crispy, and I enjoyed dipping them in the brothy soup. Their fideo was traditional, but they added potatoes, which I also enjoyed. It made what is usually a simple soup a little heartier. My fiancé enjoyed his tacos, but unfortunately, all of the salsas were too spicy for him, so he ate them mostly plain. That's the only reason I'm deducting a star. Personally, my stomach can't really handle spice like it used to either, so it would be nice if they had a milder salsa for people like us. Otherwise, I enjoyed my meal. When we were leaving, one of their employees handed us a tiny spoon with some tamarindo on it. It was a pleasant surprise and a nice little slightly spicy and sweet treat. read more

Tacos Trinidad is the kind of spot that reminds you why mom & pop restaurants are the best. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is warm and homey -- you're greeted by the staff in a way that feels like being welcomed by your tias. It's nothing fancy, but it's clean, comfortable, and the staff is genuinely kind. I ordered the sopa de fideo with chicken taquitos, my husband had the enchiladas michoacanas, and we shared tacos de papa. Everything tasted authentic and delicious. They also have a self-serve salsa bar with a great variety, so you can customize the heat and flavor to your liking. The aguas frescas are made fresh in house, which is always a win. My favorite little touch was the mini tamarindo paleta at the end -- the perfect way to cleanse your palate. Prices are fair and the portions are satisfying. Don't sleep on this gem -- if you're looking for authentic Mexican food with a welcoming neighborhood feel, Tacos Trinidad is absolutely worth a visit. read more

As someone who never leaves reviews due to the severe lack of impressionable and worthwhile restaurants, I'm happy to report that I have finally found a spot that genuinely surprised me. We ordered al pastor and carne asada tacos and with the owner's solid suggestion, caldo de res. Homemade chips and salsa were provided. The taco meat was crisp on the edges and incredibly delicious. The tendons in the soup added a texture that blended seamlessly with the flavorful broth. It felt and tasted like a home cooked soup that filled you with warmth and reaching for seconds. Haven't had a meal that left me wanting more and most importantly, curious to explore the rest of the menu in a long, long while. Comforting to know that places like this still exist. read more

Just driving down I-5 on a trip, and the consensus was tacos for lunch. Not many reviews but they mentioned al pastor. Oh my goodness. We took a container of the al pastor meat to go, since we couldn't come back for dinner. The al pastor was the best - almost felt like I was in Mexico City. It was savory with small chunks of pineapple, crispy bits, but also tender. And what lovely people working there. We will be back next time we are driving by Stockton! read more

We've been to Tacos Trinidad three times and it never disappoints. The owners and staff are friendly and go out of their way to accomodate their customers. My boyfriend wanted something that wasn't on the menu (tacos de papa) and they agreed to make it for him. He was beyond satisfied with the tacos and the sopa de fideo and can't wait to take family there for an authentic culinary experience. I always enjoy the chilaquiles verdes w/eggs, but there are so many other dishes I'd like to try in the future. Everything that comes out of the kitchen looks delicious. I highly recommmend Tacos Trinidad -give them a try. read more
