Grab lunch at Taqueria La Puerta on a weekday. It was easy to order my food via DoorDash for pick up. When I arrive, my food was ready as it said. Upon entering the restaurant, the staff were welcoming and said hello. I ordered the crispy chicken taco plate, which was absolutely delicious. They also have a taco bar where you can get free chips and salsa. If you're looking for good Mexican food in North Natomas this is the place to go. Can't wait to try more items on their menu. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]So friendly, clean, and yummy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you! I've gone twice now and I think this is the family's favorite spot for a quick burrito! read more

Not sure what has changed, but our last two super burrito runs have been disappointing. The meat has been extremely salty, and the burritos are now packed with more beans and rice than actual protein ($13). They're also noticeably slimmer, with so much excess tortilla that we end up tossing part of it. I also tried a quesabirria taco which was excessively salty and not enjoyable ($5). [[HIGHLIGHT]]On the positive side, customer service remains excellent, the salsa bar is solid, and the restaurant is clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have December specials I'm wanting to try, so I hope the food quality gets back to what it used to be. read more

My wife and I were in this different side of town. I yelp' d a good Mexican restaurant and this place popped up. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is a small cute place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We both ordered burritos. I got the veggie and my wife got a chicken burrito. While we were waiting we grabbed chips and salsa at the bar they had. This was a sign the food was going to be excellent. The Salsas were all so good. The staff when we walked in was nice. The burritos came and they were the best burritos I have had in a long time. This place will be our go to in the future for Mx food. So delicious. read more

Taqueria La Puerta - Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Sacramento, California

I love a good taqueria, and when I found out about taqueria La Puerta, it was a must try! They've been open for about eight months now, and the gentleman that owns the auto shop at the end of the strip mall, is the same man who's opened up this restaurant. He seized a perfect opportunity because this is where the waffle restaurant used to be. To say that I'm a fan is an understatement. This has become a weekly must have in the rotation of restaurants. Everything is made to order, fresh ingredients, reasonable prices, and the food is outstanding! This is the only place that I will order a chimichanga at. Why? Because not only can I select the protein that I would like, but this is one of the few places that the chimichangas are made perfect every single time. I order the Crema and guacamole on the side. Both are super delicious, but I like to dip while I eat. We've also tried so many other menu items, and each one has been a hit. Ironically, the quesadilla is superb. It's filled with lots of meat and cheese and they sliced the quesadillas so that you can pick it up and eat each segment by hand. Just the way I like it! They offer free chips and a full salsa bar that has at least eight or more different types of salsa's. Ranging from mile to blow your head off hot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You're welcome to dine inside, or at their outdoor seating area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff is super friendly, and I love the fact that not only were they easy to get to know, but they pretty much know my to go order every single time. Did I mention that the food is absolutely outstanding and delicious?! Absolutely worth trying, and you will find yourself going back weekly like we do! read more

Stopped by while in town again and had the breakfast for the first time - just as amazing as everything else! We made a point to ask the man there if he was the chef as it is always fantastic to only find out he is the chef and owner! We got to talking and were absolutely not surprised to find out he makes everything daily homemade from scratch. You can totally tell with how wonderful everything tastes. The rice is so flavorful as is the beans and every item on the menu. As I've said before - this is a staple whenever we are in Sacramento! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is simple nice and clean their sauce bar is well maintained and everything is super fresh.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ive come back twice, first time I got an Al pastor burrito and it was really good, the meat was tender, juicy, and had a good distribution of other fillings, I do wish they crisped up the tortilla just a bit more however. During my second visit I brought my fiance she doesn't eat much so she got a side of veggies and a side of Chile releno as her meal, the Chile releno was really delicious, and the veggies were fresh and quickly stir fried almost like a Chinese stir fry, it was well seasoned and a bit on the oily side I got the taco plate and the tacos are good depending on the meat you get, Al pastor was by far the best but the rest that I got was not as good but still satisfactory Their service was quick and kind we even spilled some water and they were super nice about it (if they see this review, sorry ) read more

Dining room/in-person dine in ends at 8pm but kitchen open until 9pm, Doordash orders placing end at 830pm. Walk-in after 8pm for takeout, chairs were already up on the tables. Got one order of the California Burrito with adobada and whole beans, and a Loaded Fries with asada, refried beans. Fries two ways, if you will. Chips and salsa bar had lots of choices. I liked the reds, the sour cream and jalapeños, pickled jalapeños and carrots, green tomatillo. Also packets of Tapatio if you wanted. The only one I didn't try was the habanero, described as very spicy depending on the cook's mood. The super burrito was a decent size and heft (rice, beans, meat, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, and fries) and the asada fries were okay, which also came with beans, cheese, guac, sour cream, and pico. Very filling! I'd be curious to try their crispy tacos, birria, chile verde plate, quesadillas or chimis, or pozole! They also have breakfast burritos from 9am-12pm too! Tortas, tostadas, enchiladas, fajitas, shrimp, taquitos, flautas, relleno, and agua Fresca. read more

I came in for a quick lunch to go. I got the loaded fries and they were wonderful. My fries topped with beans, meat, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, and pico. I wished I'd have asked to add jalapenos, but I made do with some spicy salsa. There were lots of options at the salsa bar including sour cream with jalapenos! Quick and friendly service, yummy food, and close to where I work- I'll definitely be back. read more

The service was great. Came in for a to-go order and the food was ready in less than 10 minutes. [[HIGHLIGHT]]First impression, cute little Restaurant, a lot of space inside and out[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I order the super burrito, carne asada with no beans. It was okay. Nothing really special about it. It was pretty thin for a super burrito, maybe bc I ordered no beans. Other restaurants just add more rice. I prob should have asked. The food was averaged. Nothing stood out for me. I was hoping that the carne asada some charred on it, but it didn't. Maybe will come again. I'm curious about their California burrito or nacho fries. If I do, will update my review. Thanks for reading. read more

We recently visited Taqueria La Puerta and had a decent experience. Upon walking in, we were immediately greeted, which set a welcoming tone. There was plenty of seating both inside and on the patio, making it easy to find a comfortable spot. The staff was friendly and accommodating, happily adjusting our order to our preferences. We ordered a taco salad and quesabirria tacos. While the food wasn't bad, it also wasn't particularly memorable. The flavors didn't stand out enough for us to make a return visit, but we appreciated the service and atmosphere. If you're looking for a casual spot with good hospitality, it's worth checking out, but for us, it didn't quite hit the mark. read more

The absolute skinniest burrito I have ever ordered in my life. This is basically a chimichanga size. 14$ this is what I expect from Taco Bell, but these "burritos" are a joke for size. Will never come again read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Fun experience, small place, but really welcoming and friendly staff[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I tried out the chimichanga. It comes with sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo on top. Definitely a big portion for the price that you pay Chimichanga itself was not bad it became a bit soggy by the end of the meal I also tried the chicken quesadilla and I loved it. It was really good. read more

Located somewhat near the original Kings arena in a mostly office park area. Taco Tuesday has $1.99 tacos. I ordered asada, pastor and ground beef tacos. I liked the ground beef best, followed by the pastor then the carne asada. The free salsa bar included pico de gallo, which is nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was prompt and the restaurant was new and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

So excited to have found this place since I'm new to the area. It will definitely be my new go-to for Mexican food. We ordered a carne asada California burrito with refried beans, a birria super burrito with pinto beans, and a pineapple agua fresca. Both burritos were delicious but the flavor of the birria was so good that I preferred it over the asada. One thing to mention is that there was an extra charge of $1.75 for the birria meat, but it was worth it. The pineapple agua fresca was refreshing and not super sweet. The chips and salsa bar were fresh and tasty. Service was quick and the lady who took our order at the register was friendly. There's seating inside and outside, and there's some nice patio lights for the outdoor tables. Will definitely be coming back to try their other menu options since I saw they serve menudo and pozole too! read more

Amazing quality tacos. My favorite was the chicken street taco. My partner really loved the al pastor street taco and we liked all the salsas from the salsa bar. I will definitely be back to try a burrito next time. The service was very fast and friendly. It was clean and comfortable inside. Lots of parking too.

I selfishly want to keep this place a secret but I'm not that kind of person... I just wanted to paint a picture of how I feel about this place. First off, Mexican food is my favorite type of food. Second, it's hard to find a good breakfast burrito... at least to my liking. This place has great Mexican food, has an excellent breakfast burrito, [[HIGHLIGHT]]it's clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], the salsa bar is terrific... service is very nice and has a family owned type of feel. I highly recommend this place. I've had the chorizo BB, shrimp burrito, chicken burrito, and my wife had a variation of street tacos. All were delicious 9.5/10. You won't be dissatisfied. read more

The food lacked flavor, my wife ordered taquitos and was surprised to find they use ground beef instead of shredded beef. The carne asada burrito was just OK, nothing special. Too many good taquerias in the central valley to return here. Prices were decent but I'd rather pay more for better food. I hesitate to write reviews that are not glowing for small businesses but hopefully this will be looked at as critique that will help the business improve. read more

2nd time coming here for lunch. Wife ordered the taco plate(lunch special 2x taco +rice/beans) I ordered a el pastor regular wet burrito. Everything tasted great like the first time. Salsa bar had good tasting salsa which we loved the spice levels. Will definitely come here again and refer to anyone in the area that is crazy Mexican food. Our go to spot for crispy tacos WAS at another spot around the way but will come only here from now on. Area seems a bit hidden but a gem read more

Everything was excellent, service was outstanding, carnitas epic! I don't live here but I will be back.

Truly the worst fish tacos I have ever had in my life and top 5 worst shrimp tacos. Streets tacos do not use giant tacos shells and a thousand toppings, which I think was used to try to hide the horrible cooking or old seafood they used. Save your money. Stay away. read more

Best Mexican food in Natomas. Food never misses and the salsas 10/10. Also, they got breakfast burritos all day ‍

We walked in to order. The staff was kind, attentive, and provided excellent recommendations. We ordered mostly sides, but were not disappointed. The food was flavorful, and exactly what we wanted! We also received small bags for chips to-go, and everything was packed up with care and attention. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was clean, well organized, and welcoming![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We'll be bank again for sure! read more

I was hoping that this was going to be delicious but was disappointed after giving this place a try. I will say that pricing was fair and the food is okay/good. It's not bad but it's also not super amazing. Still trying to find my Mexican spot in Natomas! I tried each types of meat and nothing stood out to me. The service was really fast but some items tasted either overly seasoned or under seasoned. read more

Had this place on my list to dine at since the owner who owns SK Auto in the same shopping centrr told me about it. I finally gave it a try and got a burrito and my wife got the taco plate. The portions are super and the price is on point. Way better quality, and less greasy than Rincon, and the service was super friendly. The space is smaller, but good enough for quick service taqueria. This is now officially our go-to taqueria in Natomas, as of now, there is no place better in price or quality. read more

Taqueria La Puerta - Inside view - Mexican Near Me - Sacramento, California

I was on the hunt for a spot that served Picadillo like back home in Texas during my lunch break. This was the first Mexican restaurant that popped up, and even though they didn't have Picadillo on the menu, the great reviews convinced me to give it a shot, and I'm so glad I did. I ordered two crispy tacos and a horchata, and both were absolutely amazing. After just one bite of the taco, I literally had to pause and look at it..I couldn't believe how fresh and flavorful it was. This place is less than a mile from my job, and I can officially say I've found my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. read more

Taqueria La Puerta - Two crispy tacos, add sour cream - Mexican Near Me - Sacramento, California

I was pretty excited to try this place saw a couple of videos that popped up in my social media and Yelp was rating this place 4 solid stars. Maybe I just ordered the wrong type of meat for my dish but it was just okay. I had the asada super burrito and my husband ordered the pastor super burrito. The flavor was just not there, literally. I'm not sure if maybe the meat wasn't marinated long enough or at all. I thought with all the other ingredients in the burrito would help it out but it didn't. I'm not sure if I would want to come back. read more

Review is for the al pastor. Super saucy and juicy. Very flavorful. Would come back just for the al pastor. They even offer to grill fresh pineapple with it too. They have a chip and salsa bar as well. Great deal! Service was very welcoming. Loved the woman working, great vibes. read more
