    Taco Salads and Quesadillas
    Vivi L.

    My boyfriend and I literally order from here almost every weekend. The meat is always juicy and flavorful, rice and beans are perfect, portion sizes are great, and they're affordable! Not only that, but if you have the Uber Eats app, they often have BOGO Free deals! Over time, we've had their quesadillas, tacos, burritos, and taco salads. I loooove their taco salads because the fried shell is so light and crispy! I also appreciate how they're able to fit the shell in takeout boxes. I've ordered taco salads from other places where the shell is too tall so the takeout box won't close properly lol. Service is quick and the cashiers are always nice!

    Takeout order [Roseville CA] Stopped by this little cozy Mexican restaurant on Douglas Blvd before heading home, 30 mins before they closed. Ordered takeout for a Steak Super Burrito and while waiting for my food I noticed that some of the tables had the coolest Mexican themed design. Customer service was friendly and food was prepared at a decent time. The burrito was flavorful with rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo. Daughter and I split it and we were both full. Clean interior with outdoor patio seating available facing the busy Douglas Blvd. The restaurant is next to a 24-hour Baker Ben's Donut shop with a shared small private parking lot. Review #3681

    Where's the meat?

    Ordered the Quesabirria combo (3). They did not have any cheese and the side of consome was cold and the worst I have ever had. This restaurant is close to me, I thought I would give it a try for convenience. Never again. I'm convinced they pay for good reviews. Go to Valencia's Taquería off of Greenback if you want true authentic food.

    I ordered two super burritos, both of them steak one of them with no sour cream what they sent me was a ripped tortilla filled with rice beans, peas, carrots, corn, and pork no sour cream no pico de gallo no guacamole? What the heck is all that other stuff doing in there? I called to ask what happened the lady that answered the phone said she didn't speak English. Never again!

    Yummy variety of sauces for you to help yourself to.

    My wife and I ran some errands and spotted this place while driving. We decided to stop and try it out. To our surprise, it was really good! The place offers both dine-in and takeout options. It's not too fancy - you order at the front and can sit anywhere you like. The interior had cute decorations and it was super clean. I had the al pastor and asada street tacos, and they were cooked and seasoned perfectly. Their homemade sauces were all so good too! However, my wife's taquitos were a little bland. Overall, we'll be back for more tacos and to try other items on the menu.

    Big portion and very delicious! I ordered this through doordash and was nervous to see many people mention their orders getting mixed up, however, mine came just as desired.

    Super burrito I had already had one serving of it.

    That was the biggest burrito I have ever had! And I might add the best. It made four meals for me. And it was better every time I I heated it up. Highly recommend.

    Rude waitress named Ale (on receipt) who rolled her eyes at my parents, and me on 2 separate transactions. Won't come back because of her

I came here before with a friend several times. You get seated anywhere you want. They served you chips and salsa when first sit down and asked what you like to drink. I got agua de Jamaica, it's iced tea made of dried hibiscus flowers. It's sweet and tangy. I asked for side or guacamole. I ordered 2 chile rellleno with all rice. I don't like beans. It came out within 10 mins ordering it. The plate came out hot. The waitress warn me before she put it down. I couldn't eat it at first. It was too hot and fresh. The rellanos was covered in some type of brown sauce. It was savory and good. I love chile rellanos. Not a lot make it good. But this one was good. I put the guacamole on my rice and went at it. I never got refill of my drink and they never offered me water. She asked if I was doing ok once and gave me the check before I was done. What if I wanted dessert? Hmm The service was nice and friendly. I wanted a refill. There was a lot of people in the restaurant is tucked inside same parking lot of gas station and liquor store. Next to the Oriental Market.

The tacos were good, and had a good amount of meat. They default to a medium-hot. Ask for mild or no sauce if you're sensitive. The chips and salsa bar is nice, and you can take some to-go. The salsas are all hot to extra hot. There is a pico that is not hot. We also enjoyed the sour cream avocado sauces. The burritos are over $13 each, and standard in size. Not extra large at all. I would go again for a nice treat.

    Dining option in Downtown Roseville [Roseville CA]…read more Came here for an early lunch one Sunday morning and ordered a Steak & Egg Plate. They open early and are located in Downtown Roseville. Very spacious interior including booths and table seating as well as picnic benches outdoors. The salsa bar is located next to the soda fountain machine. This is a counter service and they will serve your food to your table. I'm not a pro when it comes to Mexican food but the Mexican-style Steak & Eggs featured perfectly grilled steak paired with fluffy eggs mixed together and came with refried beans, sour cream, avocado, salsa, shredded cheese and rice. Also, choice of warm corn or flour tortilla. Oh, also there were also fries... like French fries? Friendly help at the counter. Food came fast. Review #4001

    It's been a while since I have been inside Mercado Loco... let's see how they are doing!…read more Tonight, I did not bring enough of my homemade carnitas over to my clients and she was wanting carnita taquitos. So, I pulled into Mercado Loco because their carnitas is delicious! They have a very compact parking lot with a vendor on the sidewalk selling the doritos that you can put your sauce & lime on. I skipped him today and walked through those automatic doors... I know Mercado Loco has been here for decades. I grew up just around the corner and finally walked in about 5 years ago for the first time. Boy, was I missing out! At first, you notice this is a Mexican grocery store that also offers hot lunch/dinners. The price for some of their items are a little high than your typical grocery store... being that some of the items they offer are higher quality. However, sometimes, the prices do not match up when you get to the front. Cilantro had a price of $.69 on display, but I was charged $.75... it was only a tiny difference, but just putting it out there. I went straight to the hot case and a woman with a beautiful smile greeted me in Spanish and asked me what I would like. I ordered a pound of their carnitas. Oh, heck, give me some of those chichorrones, too. Next thing you know, I'm grabbing some of their hot salsa... I think their hot salsa is one of the best, hottest salsas that I have ever had that I can handle! We're talking nose running, but it's so good you can't stop! Next, I grab some king size corn tortillas. Some cilantro... they have wonderful produce available here... as well as those gorgeous purple dragon fruits when the season is right. After my pound is carnitas, pound of chicharonnes, cilantro, tortillas, and salsa... it came out to just a hair above $40! Ouch, but that is what you pay for when you want authentically cooked carnitas and chicharonnes. When I got home, I was a little disappointed that I was given some of the dried out pieces of their carnitas. When I say dry, it was too hard to eat. So I cut those parts off and tossed them (my carnitas blew their out of the water, btw.... just saying, lol.) The chicharon's were hot and miss throughout the entire time we ate them. Super hard, popping you he l can hear in your teeth, in your jaw... but some parts were delicious, succulent, crispy... yum! I love coming here earlier in the day. When I get tacos, they for 99% off the time on point! They are gorgeous and tasty... and get the HOT SALSA!

    The meat tasted like Fabuloso…read more The guy at the counter said the meat fell on the floor. I thought he was joking because he laughed right after. But proceeded to give me the order i requested. After inspection at home the smell was faint. But once cooked it almost seems like the meat had been marinated in that fabuloso fragrent liquid smell. This place is dirty and filthy. People are careless of the quality just like the owner. He use to have an other location in Rancho Cordova. But the dirty details about their specials and promotions made me sexond doubt buying anything feom there. JOKINGLY i would ask if the meat was good this time. (Its fresh we just got this batch.)
