1. Direct + Detailed Food is hit and miss, service was a…read moreproblem I've been here 4 times in the past 7 days specifically for tripas, lengua, and cabeza. Not once were any available. At this point it feels like bait and switch -- why put it on the menu if you never have it? The low rating is mainly for the young lady at the register. She was rude, spent the whole time whispering to a guy who works there and laughing while looking at me. Felt disrespected as a customer. Found Beto's down the street instead. Decent food, decent prices, and they actually serve what's on their menu. Won't be back. 2. Short + Punchy No tripas, lengua, or cabeza. Ever. 4 visits in 7 days. Zero times did they have tripas, lengua, or cabeza. Starting to think the menu is false advertising. Register girl was rude too -- whispering + laughing at me with her coworker/BF the whole time. Beto's down the street has better food, better prices, and no attitude. Go there instead. 3. Balanced but Firm Frustrating experience Food here can be okay when they have it, but the inconsistency is a problem. I came 4 times in one week hoping for tripas, lengua, or cabeza and was told they were out every single time. If you don't carry menu items regularly, take them off the menu. Service also needs work. The teen at the register was whispering to another employee and laughing while taking my order. Made me uncomfortable. Beto's down the street doesn't have these issues -- they stock what they advertise and the service is solid.

When I asked about the corn, they said that they put corn in their rice. They did offer to remake it for me without the rice, but I just kept the original burrito. I do hate corn, but luckily they don't put too much of it in the rice, so it wasn't too bad. I would come back here to try some other things.

Been craving some good street tacos so had to satisfy this craving!…read more First time visiting Taqueria La Nueva Vallarta and had a good experience! It is located at the Northgate area in a shopping plaza so lots of parking spots. Very impressive interior decor! It is very welcoming and visually pleasing! From the ceiling plants and lighting to the wall murals, it feels comfortable and very tidy with lots of dining tables. I ordered for to-go so was actually tempted to stay and eat-in but had to get back to work. For the food, ordered the following: ***All Day Lunch Special $14.55 (credit card) 3 street tacos (2 steaks and 1 chicken) 5/5 With rice and beans includes a drink ***1 Street taco (chicken) $3.38 (credit card) 5/5 The meal was delicious! The street tacos were very tasty and flavorful!! The staff were very courteous, friendly and accommodating. Very good customer service! Will visit again. Highly recommend so check 'em out!

Plenty of free chips and unlimited dips. Hot sauces, salsa are all different flavors and hit the taste buds hard!! Everyone was checking on us every few mins! Felt like we were eating in their home. So loving. Food here always been top notch. We ordered many times (via DoorDash) but sitting there and eating the food was a different vibe. Ordered a few different tacos, tostada and super nachos (with chicken). Their meat was seasoned to perfection. Actual flavors and not just salt. A bit pricey for each taco but the portion of taco is huge and honestly two did the job for me. Give it a try

It is a traditional taco spot, with the meats being cooked in front of you, with a topping station off to the side. Some meats may not be available if you arrive early, so keep in mind what you'd like. They have a 2 for 1 special on tortas on Tuesdays. It comes with tomato, avocado, lettuce and a cheese shirt around the meat. My favorite is always the al pastor since it's on a traditional trompo. Parking is street parking, or in the lot nearby. You'll see others parking around as well, but keep in mind they dont have set seating so it'll probably be to go unless you chose to eat standing.

The tacos tasted great, but I left feeling confused about the pricing. The posted price for pastor…read moretacos was $3 each. I ordered 4 tacos and one large drink, paid with a $20 bill, and received only $1 back. No receipt was provided and no explanation of the charges was given. Good food is important, but so is trust.

Wow, the asada tacos were my favorite, but the shrimp and chicken tacos were also delicious. I came…read moreon Taco Tuesday, so the tacos were a little cheaper, making them an even better value. Each taco had a generous amount of meat, was well-prepared, and tasted fresh. The real game changer, though, was adding the jalapeño cream sauce along with a few salsas from the salsa bar which took the tacos to another level. If I could, I'd give this place 6 stars just for that! Also, I'd recommend the cucumber lime agua fresca drink. It tasted refreshing and the perfect amount of each flavor. Their menu has a great variety of options, and I noticed several people ordering the dinner plates, which looked absolutely massive. I also saw them bring out a sizzling hot skillet that I could hear from a few tables down. You definitely get your money's worth here. The service was friendly, welcoming, and incredibly fast. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained, and the salsa bar was fresh, organized, and full of appetizing choices. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu!

What an amazing experience! My wife and I stopped in for lunch, and everything exceeded our…read moreexpectations. I had the shredded chicken burrito, and it was absolutely delicious--fresh, flavorful, and one of the best I've had. My wife ordered the caldo de res and loved it.

The restaurant was spotless, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was incredibly fast. Everyone we encountered greeted us with a smile and made us feel genuinely welcome.

I have thouroughly enjoyed the variety of fresh ingredients and range of syles of food here. The cocktails are a little above a dive bar. Good, but not incredible. I was slightly disappointed by the pastor taco. The meat had been sitting out for awhile and had dried out in the warmer. There are some other interesting options now, like butter chicken. It is not a traditional mexican place, but a bit of fusion here and there. The service was very attentive and the bartender was quite friendly.

I had a pretty weird experience here because my girl and I actually visited twice in the same…read morenight, and the two visits couldn't have been more different. Our first stop was just a quick pregame before heading to another restaurant. We seated ourselves, and within a few minutes a server greeted us, introduced himself, and brought us menus. We kept it simple and ordered chips and salsa along with a taco since we didn't want to fill up we headed to the other restaurant. The chips and salsa were a great start. This was my first time being served a while fried tortillas instead of traditional tortilla chips, we had to break off tortillas yourself, which was a fun twist. Both the red and green salsas were delicious. I got a little heavy-handed with the red salsa because it definitely had some heat, but it was still really flavorful. The green salsa was my favorite. My girl ordered a taco since they have discounted tacos after 9 p.m., and it was really good. The service during our first visit was excellent. Our server struck up a conversation after finding out I was from Vallejo, and he mentioned his girlfriend was from Vallejo too. We ended up chatting for a bit about the area, and it made the experience feel very welcoming. Later that night, we decided to come back to actually have dinner, and unfortunately, this visit was the complete opposite. We arrived about 35 minutes before closing, so I completely understand that the staff was getting ready to wrap things up. However, the first thing our waitress said was that they would be closing in 30 minutes and that we needed to order our food immediately because the kitchen was about to close. She also told us to order any drinks right away because the bar would be closing too. I understand letting customers know, but the delivery felt rushed and came across as more of an inconvenience than a welcome. For dinner we ordered the Baja fish taco, surf and turf taco, Korean fried chicken taco, pork belly taco, and carne asada taco. My girl ordered a margarita, and I had mocktail that had a hint of pineapple, I wish I could remember the name because it was excellent. As for the tacos, they were a mixed bag. (FYI the tacos are discounted after 9 PM). Baja fish taco was good, and my girl enjoyed pork belly taco with the pickled red onions. The Korean fried chicken taco was interesting. It wasn't served on a traditional tortilla, and while I wasn't completely sold on it, I'd be willing to give it another try. The biggest disappointment was the carne asada. Both the carne asada taco and the surf and turf taco had meat that was extremely crunchy, almost like the bits left at the bottom of the grill. It really affected the texture and made those tacos much less enjoyable. To top it off, while we were still eating, our waitress brought over the payment device, and her attitude remained just as unpleasant as when we first sat down. It made us feel like she couldn't wait for us to leave rather than wanting us to enjoy our meal. I understand we came in close to closing time, and I always respect that employees want to finish their shift. But if a restaurant is still open and seating guests, I believe those customers should receive the same level of hospitality as anyone who came in earlier. Because our first visit was so good, I know this place is capable of providing a great experience. The menu has a lot of tacos I'd still like to try, so might to give them another chance. Hopefully next time the service matches the quality we experienced during our first visit.

You're greeted with a fun atmosphere, friendly staff, and an energy that makes you excited to be there. Since the restaurant was especially busy, we chose to sit at the bar. There was no wait, and the high-top seating was surprisingly comfortable. Our server was welcoming and attentive, and the service was fast from start to finish. Between the great music and lively atmosphere, you can't help but want to dance while you eat! I ordered one of my favorites--the chicken sope. It was perfectly crispy on the outside while still soft and fluffy on the inside. The chicken was packed with flavor, and the rice and beans were just as delicious. The salsa that came with it was the perfect finishing touch, adding just the right amount of spice and an extra kick of flavor. My hubby ordered one of the carne asada dishes (so sorry, I forgot the name!). He said it was one of the best cuts of meat he's had at a Mexican restaurant in a long time--super tender, juicy, and full of flavor. We had such a fun night! I definitely recommend Rosa Madera--10/10 for a date night, girls' night, or any excuse to enjoy great food and an even better atmosphere.

The shrimp burrito was recommended by a friend but it lacked flavor. The mild green salsa that accompanied it was good, but still didn't elevate it. The shrimp itself were plump and tender, but I've definitely had a better burrito. My husband got the asada burrito and he didn't say it was good or bad, which means it wasn't anything special, just edible. Also tried the al pastor street tacos and the carnitas street tacos. The carnitas were dry. Al pastor was fatty. Maybe I just came at the wrong time since the reviews are pretty good, plus it was recommended by a fellow foodie....who knows. Maybe if I'm back in the area, I can order something else and give them another try. Maybe.
