The food was good it hit the craving for menudo. They had all the toppings plus as much salsa as you can handle. I was not a fan of having to order and pay at the front then going to go sit in my seat. There was only one person serving the food instead of the usual waitress taking your order. I felt as though it was impersonal. The restroom was nice and clean. read more

Excellent service and food. Good variety! Servers are friendly and welcoming! Have visited here several times already and it has never disappointed us! read more

Great Mexican food. Always consistent, friendly and clean. We have been coming here for about 15 years.

Tucked into a back area off of Oakdale and Sylvan, this is not the easiest place to get to. But once there, you experience the standard that is a Mis Compadres. Walk in and go to your right to order, they are considered a bar, so you can get a couple libations with your meal. The menu is expansive and of a reasonable price. The portions are always large, and your money is well spent. I ordered the combination taco and enchilada. First I had to hit up the salsa bar. House avocado salsa is rich in flavor, Spicy tomato, and a mild couzin, A roasted tomato salsa that is my favorite . Pickled jalapeños and carrots, lemons and extras. Everything is brought out to your table when your order is ready. My meal was almost perfect, the carne asada was plentiful and tender. My chicken enchilada w red sauce was perfectly shredded. Rice and beans had good texture and great taste. I love the food, but sadly my order is wrong every time I go. Ordered the same order three times and three times got something else. Receipt was correct, kitchen had problem :( Even though it is not easy to get here, it is worth the time! Stop in today. read more

Been wanting to stop here, finally had a chance for lunch. When you walk in you order and then take a seat. They give you a number and the food is brought out to you. Soda machine and salsa bar to the far left. Different salsa, avocado one was awesome not spicy at all. I order a Taco Combination Meal, came with 2 tacos (soft or fried) I chose fried. Homemade fried and good crunch and did not split underneath. Came with meat (I ordered carne asada) lettuce, cheese, green salsa (mild) and sour cream. A lot of meat and tasted really good. Also came with Spanish rice and refried beans, both good. I also order a chicken tortilla soup (mainly because I was cold, definitely too much food. The soup was hot and hit the spot. Big chunks of chicken, carrots, potatoes on the side they give you fried tortilla strips, half of an avocado diced, cheese and hotter salsa to add if you wanted. I chose not to add. Still very flavorful. Will definitely be back. read more

Its average. Good burrito good chile rellano. Not the best service or ambiance. Still decent especially fir the price

Got 10 tacos today to have with my daughter and the meat was terrible, super big chunks of carne asada but most of it was just hard pieces of disgusting gristle. This was 44 bucks. What a joke. My daughter didn't even want to eat it. read more

My family and I always come here when we're craving Mexican food. We usually order their carnitas tacos, super burrito or enchiladas. They also have a self serve salsa bar. Service is always friendly and attentive read more

I don't like leaving negative reviews, specially a place we have supported and visited often. Service is great, decor and vibe are great, and we can walk to this place so, so. Sooo convenient. That's the main reason we have frequented so much over the years. We have a gathering with friends where we go to each others homes for lunch once a month or so and we usually take chicken nachos from here and they are always great. You know how they say never say never or always???? Sometimes the food is great and other times same dish is an epic fail. Last few times I got the torta milanesa with fries and that had been pretty good, the last time fries where soggy and milanesa not cooked and hard, kind of gross. Wife usually has a bean and rice burrito so that is hard to mess up, until today, no flavor, needed salt rice was hard and maybe old, just bad. I figured good old nachos should be safe since my last torta was not good......what a mistake that was, rancid and old chips, how does a Mexican restaurant serve rancid chips??! That's the last draw for me won't come back again. I really like the people that run and own it but the inconsistency of the food is just too much of a gamble. As convenient as this is , I'll rather drive or go to the always busy and usually packed Mexican restaurant across the street and wait. Not worth the picture either....my dog loved the nachos however so she came up! read more

Disappointed today! Normally things seem to run smooth at this location but today it was a turtle race. I ordered two burritos that took over 30 minutes. People who ordered after me received their orders. This place is my go to, but today was disappointing. Might have to find a new location. read more

Sorry no stars to give! This place was the worst ever! I rather have Taco Bell! Just left has the flat that and they were super soggy the sauce on it was like water. The meat was tough no flavor.. had the chili Riano same thing my plate look like it had water on it. The only thing that was good while decent was the beans and rice enchilada was horrible.. never ever again . The only thing I can say was good was the Horchata. read more

During the height of the pandemic, my wife and I went here twice, both times I saw people who I was told there the owners, with NO masks on (the servers to their credit did). I will never forget their lack of concern for their customers and failure to model this important COVID countermeasure. Food and service was, meh, had to flag down the servers both times for the basics (knife, fork, spoon, napkins). I am GLAD that Padilla's opened across the street and will NEVER go to TMC again. Done. read more

I Was disappointed on the portion I received for my menudo and carne asada burrito today. The menudo was mainly broth and about 5 pieces of tripe and hominy total. The burrito barely had any carne asada, mainly rice. Not worth what I paid. Go elsewhere to make your money worth it . read more

Tonight must have been an off night. Several folks that ordered food complained of wrong orders and mine was no exception. I ordered a Super Burrito which is usually gigantic and was only $7.95 a little while ago. It is now almost double that. Prices aren't listed anywhere so they can charge you whatever they feel like. Was charge $51 for a Super Burrito, a two taco combo, flautist, and a chicken torta. There was nothing super about my burrito. No pico, no cheese, no sour cream. I'm pretty sure I was charged for a super but given a regular. Usually very good and great portions. Tonight I wonder if it's a new cook? Anyway, no bueno tonight. I would have given one star but I know they can do better. read more

Amazing food amazing service every time we go we're very thankful for how we are treated. The establishment is clean. The bathrooms are clean. The food is amazing. Very good environment. We are very thankful to have this close to our home. Keep up the good work guys thank you so much. read more

Have supported this family business for many years, it's just not the same . Food quality has gone downhill . Understand that this is a taqueria where a lot of food is pre cooked however it's always tasted fresh over the years . Recent trip will probably be our last . Soggy food , for that price you would think there would be better attention to detail like it used to be , There's more choices in the area now that are much better. read more

The woman who served me added 4 bucks for carnitas?! there wasn't even a lot of meat in my especial burrito. I usually get the same burrito every time with carnitas but i haven't been here in a while and got the wrong one. that part is my fault but charging 4 extra without telling me is what made me mad. read more

Their torta is HUGE! Such a deal, and super delicious. Always pleased with this restaurant. I'm sure I'll be back again! read more

Tried them for the first time this morning.. my god the absolute best burrito I've had in years!! Was unbelievably good! (Breakfast burrito w bacon) read more

Mis Compadres is my go-to for decently-priced, delicious Mexican fare. Drink options are plentiful and they have all the standard Mexican dishes you could ask for. The staff is always respectful and helpful with special requests. The dining area is clean, if a little plain, but you don't really mind. The food more than makes up for it. 10/10 would go again! read more

Food is always good and the staff is friendly. The restaurant also has a really cozy Mexican inspired atmosphere. You can't go wrong!!!

Definitely a no go for both their chile relleno and their enchilada combo. Very hard chewy meat with chunks of fat and a weird tasting red sauce. Very plain black beans and dry unflavored rice, though it looks like it has spices and flavors, we couldn't taste any. My brother had their burrito and said the same thing. The chips and salsa were about the best thing here. Don't order their machine made way too sugary horchata. It's just water, powder, and sugar. Ugh, this place was a waste of money! read more

Food was okay, my burrito was very bland with a lot of fatty meat. The atmosphere was good though, very alive and clean with everyone having good attitude. After ordering you seat yourself anywhere you like, which is nice because the restaurant is pretty big. Location and parking are also nice. Would give this place another chance and order something differently. read more

I ordered beans and rice with a torta here let me start with saying how disgusting the beans were no flavor at all it tasted like left overs like it was days old and the torta I couldn't even finish it I had to throw half of it away before feeling nasty the meat had no flavor super dry never eating here again read more

This is a must-visit place for me whenever I'm seeing family in town. The food is consistent and ready quickly, and it tastes great

Eh not worth almost $3.85/taco. Came here because it was close to the soccer fields for a tournament today. Ordered 3 carne asada tacos. Meat was so dry and the sauce that came on top, tasted off. The sauce didn't even make the dry meat moist, it was lacking flavor and color. Biting into the taco was just disappointing. it Didn't even come with lemons or radishes. Also they gave me a bag of chips with my Togo order, but no salsa to dip in?? Now I'm eating dry tacos and dry chips. read more

Got the 2 Enchilada combo plate on Valentine's Day. It was $17 which is the same as a sit down restaurant but neither the quality nor quantity was there. At that price I would rather go to a full service restaurant. read more

This is the most horrible food I've ever eaten in my entire life. The Carne Asada was absolutely disgusting. It's gray. I don't know how meat can look gray. It's not supposed to be gray. I then changed it to grilled chicken but what came back looked shredded with absolutely the worst taste did not grilled at all. The salsa super runny. The tortillas were not toasted. The bean dip was horrible I don't how you can make beans taste sour. It is astonishing to me that this place is in business. I will neverrrrrrrrrr go back not even for free. read more

this is our favorite restaurant for Mexican dishes. Authentic, super great staff, love these guys that work there. Cozy little place, not loud, we feel at home here. read more

I've eaten there many times and thought it was very good. Tonight the food was barely room temperature, indicating it was held a temperatures below the required ones to keep food safe. When trying to explain this to the waitress, she clearly did not understand nor did she ask any of the other workers for assistance. Just be alert to the food temperatures. Make sure the food is warm enough to be safe to eat. read more

I have been ordering here for several months however tonight was the last. Not only did they raise their price for 2 cheese enchiladas with rice to $16.99, and they took forever. And if that wasn't bad enough, I watched them make it. Two corn tortillas then microwaved with cheese and rice, in the styrofoam container. Don't these guys know that should never be done! For $16! A trained monkey could make that. Which this trained monkey will start doing. Don't waste your time for expensive "authentic" microwaved food! read more

Some of the best true mexican food I have had in a long time. I got the following: Chile Relleno (A La Carte) Side of Rice & Beans (A La Carte) Taco Suave (Burritos, Tacos Y Mas & More) * Carne Asada (Grilled Steak Marinated with Our Special Recipe) I Am very picky when it comes to Chile Rellenos and this was one of the best I have had since my Aunt used to make them at home. The taco was excellent. Everything was great. For sure will order again. Highly recommended! read more

We placed a to go order tonight for my co workers. When we picked it up the staff was very rude and followed my co worker very closely out of the door and immediately locked the door behind her. We did not get a lot of the items we requested and the food was not great. You're welcome for the business. We won't be back. read more

Taqueria Mis Compadres - Combo platter, enchilada and Chile relleno - Mexican Near Me - Modesto, California

A couple of years ago this business was really in their "pocket." Food was consistently good, customer service was present and friendly, dining room always clean amidst the crowds and I was also impressed how well kept their famous salsa bar was. This past year this business has had a cataclysmic fall from grace. The employees seem upset now. A request for more chips gets met with irate glances , the salsa bar looks like toddlers have been sitting on it playing with the different salsas and splashing around , and the food has been equivalent to my high school daughters attempt at making me a bean burrito. What happened ? Was there an ownership change ? Are they just not caring anymore since their cemented "Modestos' okay-est taqueria award" was quietly awarded to them by the towns' consensus? Mis Compas, my friends and I relied on you for comfort and consistently great food. You were "our" spot. What happened ? What can we do to help? We don't want to see you fail. You've been there forever . Please find the joy within yourselves you once experienced while providing your community with some of the best Mexican food our town has had to offer...and if you're not happy doing this anymore ...maybe it's time to find a different venture . With love read more

My wife and I came here for the first time and really enjoyed our experience. She ordered the Chili Verde and Chicken Enchilada plate with green sauce. I had the Two Beef Enchiladas plate with red sauce. Both combination plates came with beans and rice. The atmosphere is really nice and welcoming. We will definitely come back and recommend this place. read more

Cold burrito , bland food with no flavor , spent 60$ and food was bad , wish I just would've went to del taco. (That's how bad it was ) water down shrimp cocktail horrible taste read more

Food was horrible! My wife had "steak" fajitas that were made with bland flavored burrito meat. For my 3 1/2 year old I ordered chicken tenders, which were not "tenders" at all-- they were long shaped chicken nuggets (made with mix ground chicken meat) being sold off as tenders which is bulls**t, my son did not eat that nonsense because "it wasn't good" he said-- I don't blame him, we we're fooled by thieves (apparently these people don't know that a "chicken tender" is an actual part off of a chicken breast, so they are selling this crap under the pretense it is a "tender". Last, and worst of all, my shrimp burrito was disgusting! The shrimp were not deveined and all had full digestive tracts in them . Technically, humans can consume this nasty shrimp intestine filled with poop, BUT I did not pay good money for this disgusting crap (literally). Shame on you people! I remember years ago this place was great. My family and I will not be returning ever again... You ruined my family dinner, made my stomachs sick, and took hard earned money for crappy food (once again, literally). Hopefully the owners see this and fire whoever made these poor decisions for food "standards"! If the owners are responsible, then please do everyone a favor and get out of the food industry, you don't deserve peoples money. No stars should be rewarded to this place. read more
