Most likely the best Mexican place in the entire area. I've tried the super ground beef burrito, the super nachos, the enchilada, the horchata, all phenomenal. The service is quite good, always willing to answers questions. The ambiance is pretty good with all the decor and nice layout, and they have a good selection of beverages which I personally appreciate. read more

$17.47 Carne Asada Super Burrito was: good. Trashy meat was properly diced and elevated to acceptable. Tasted like a cross between a proper Mexican burrito and Taco Bell (basically tasted like it was catering to an American palate.) The lack of grease was the best part. Monterey has A LOT of good Mexican joints which pushes my star rating down a bit. read more

Carne asada fríes good amount of food super delicious love the green sauce on them. Always fast service and delicious food.

The staff is very friendly and courteous. The food is consistently delicious! The prices are very reasonable.

My first time here and I enjoyed it. The staff was super nice. The burrito was also tasty. And they're also a lot of people inside the restaurant at about 2 PM so you know it was good. read more

Stopped here for a chicken and carne asada burrito. Located in a corner it has plenty of parking. Order was processed pretty quickly in about 10 minutes. The carne asada was the better of the two burritos and the chicken was boiled, which you may or may not like. Good portion size and the flavor was decent. It is probably a solid 3 stars. read more

I spent the weekend in Seaside and was looking for breakfast near by and came across Baldemiros. We ordered a super burrito w/ carnitas & it is arguably one of the best carnitas burritos I've ever had. This burrito is LOADED & for the price it's definitely worth it. Their service was fairly quick & we didn't wait too long. They have plenty of seating inside and free parking in their lot. It seemed like most people that were ordering were taking it to go but this shop is definitely a hole in the wall and I'd definitely come back for this burrito & to try their other items! read more

Service is good energy Usually food is too salty, it's ethnic (I tend to like it)--it says a lot for a traditional preparation of a dish to need salt instead of being salted to the cook's hand/taste read more

I had dinner here after a soccer game, I was really looking forward to having a burrito. The menu is a little overwhelming but a lot of options for burritos. I ordered a California burrito which had asada, potatoes, pico de gallo and cheese. I assumed it would also have beans but it didn't. It was dry, not enough pico de gallo. They don't serve chips, you have to ask for salsa, no salsa bar. Service was fine. I would go back and try something else, everyone I was with enjoyed their food. read more

GREAT FOOD. PLEASE READ***** So I've been coming here for 5+ years. The breakfast burrito prices have been very affordable. Coming into today new year a breakfast burrito was $15! 3 months ago I paid $11. That's nearly 35% increase. I mean I understand prices can't stay the same forever. The only reason I say something is for the price it should be marginally bigger? Not sure but this place has been my go to for a while. Sadly it makes more sense to stay at home and cook now. Unfortunately. Thank you Baldemiros for being a go to for many years. But I will no longer to be able to pay the prices. If you don't mind please go and support this place. Great food nonetheless read more

I hadn't been to this spot in years--a solid 7, to be exact. And before that? Probably not since high school, so we're talking 16 years ago. This used to be the go-to place back in the day, especially for their carne asada fries, which I feel like they were always known for. Fast forward to now: the inside and outside are basically frozen in time (in a good way), but the menu has definitely had an upgrade. There are more options now, and the quality feels a bit elevated while still keeping that no-frills, local taco shop vibe. There's something cool about coming back to a place that was part of your routine growing up and finding that it still delivers. Nostalgia aside, the food was solid, prices were fair, and it's clear they've kept their loyal crowd for a reason. Still a worthy stop--especially if you're craving those fries. read more

So my husband said he ate at Baldermiro's 15 years ago and remembered them having amazing burritos...so of course, I said, well then, I guess we're getting burritos. LOL At first when you drive up to the empty parking lot you start to wonder if it's any good. We parked and were greeted with a smiling front counter person. We placed our orders for a carne asada burrito with salsa, rice and beans and a super carne asada with everything, and a large horchata. The restaurant is an older building but it's very clean inside. We got our order to go and they made our burritos exactly as requested and OMGeee...the flavor with the perfectly tenderized asada is mouth watering. The green salsa is a little hotter than medium and the tortilla warmed and browned just right. Then you have the horchata. It was also delicious with a creaminess to it and hints of cinnamon. I have no complaints about this visit and we will definitely be back. read more

If you're strolling through Seaside, California, with a hunger so fierce it makes Jabronis weep, there's only one place to lay the smackdown on your cravings--and that's Baldemiro's Tacos, the People's Taco Stand, if ya smellllllll what... The Rock is cookin'! First thing you notice, jabroni, is that aroma hittin' your nostrils like a flying elbow from the top rope. The carne asada? Charred to perfection, seasoned with the tears of lesser taco places. The al pastor? So juicy, it had The Rock raising both eyebrows. And don't even talk to The Rock about that salsa roja unless you're ready for a flavor SmackDown Hotel, room 316, right on Jabroni Drive! The tortillas? Hand-pressed like The Rock's freshly ironed $500 shirts. The horchata? Smooth, sweet, and refreshing--just like The Rock's victory speech after another WrestleMania main event. The line? Yeah, it's long. But you stand there, and you shut your mouth, and you WAIT--because greatness takes time, and this taco stand is COOKIN' with legendary status. So whether you're the jabroni down the street or the Brahma Bull himself, Baldemiro's will layeth the flavor down on your tastebuds like nobody else. If you don't like it? Then you can take your bland burrito, shine it up real nice, turn that sumbitch sideways, and stick it STRAIGHT UP YOUR CANDY... AHHH you get the point. read more

Super nice dude working the register, food was bomb, price for what you get is good too, cozy inside as well

Stopped here for some breakfast burritos to go before our drive to Big Sur. My first time here and it didn't disappoint!! I LOVED their chorizo breakfast burrito and I can't wait to get another!! Service was fast and pleasant. The place is small and clean. Ample parking spaces on the property and on the street. Call in your order for a quick pick up. read more

We went as a group of four. It was clean and the staff were friendly. The food was really good. I know some people had bad experiences but we didn't see or have any of those issues. In fact the guy working the register was brutally honest about the size of their side dishes with another customer. The wait was short and everything was hot. The taste of the food and portions were on point. read more

I came in at nearly closing time and it was still super packed with a huge line! Love the atmosphere! The store itself is small and located at a corner so there is street parking available. The food was very good and the customer service was quick. Would recommend giving this place a try! read more

This place has never changed. Their consistency on their food is always great. The breakfast burritos are a must to try. Pairs well with a red and green sauce. The service is always good you order in the counter pick a table or (To-GO) they call up your order. They have restrooms for costumers and some tables but the inside it's not that big. Ambience is nice and quiet... the restaurant it's always clean as well. read more

Tasty fish tacos! Best in town. We like to sit outside when it's warm and sunny! Their carne asada and chorizo tacos are grub too! Friendly staff, clean, tasty. Top it off with a Jaritos! read more

Probably one of the few taco place that has reasonable prices . Chicken rolled tacos 3 with rice and beans is only $9.99! They also have ground beef tacos which not many places have. Their crispy tacos are one of my fave where the shell isn't too hard just right. Kids menu is perfect. The customer service is always good and the inside is always clean. read more

Baldemiros is probably my favorite place to get a breakfast burrito in Monterey. They have lots of menu options but I can never pass up a breakfast burrito from here! I even was able to take it to go and enjoy it on the beach. The horchata is very fresh and the burritos come out quick! I ordered the chorizo and egg burrito. It was full of flavor with just the right amount of potato and egg wrapped in its warm tortilla. I would suggest to get some green salsa. The chips and guac were not my favorite. The guac was bland and the chips didn't have that fresh taste. read more

We were in town visiting the university and wanted something local. We ended up eating here for dinner twice it was so good! We got the super burritos and the crispy tacos the first night. Second night we got the toastada and the quesadilla. The grilled chicken was amazing as well as the carne asada. The place has some seating inside but we took our orders to go. They do take phone orders but we had no problem ordering there. read more

I have always loved Baldemiros taco shop! I have been going there since it first opened. Although I no longer live in seaside I still go by there and pick up food! The chorizo is probably the best chorizo I have had! Everyone is always so friendly, and the vibe is always good. It's gotten a lot more expensive but so has everything right?!? read more

We were craving some good tacos after a day at the beach and this place was close and had good reviews. It was a little after sunset when we arrived but by the time we got our food and headed out it was dark and there is very little light in the parking lot. The signs don't light up and idk if the light post was working, so just be careful. The prices were reasonable though and the shop looked clean. The employee was very friendly and helpful and ordering was easy; it only took about 15 minutes for the food to be ready. We got it to go and took it back to our rental. We tried a crispy chicken taco, the carne asada fries, a carnitas torta and ordered sides of rice and beans to try as well. I personally tried every dish and I am sorry to report that there is just not much to say... The torta mostly tasted like guacamole. The taco was good but very oily. The carne asada fries were flavorless and disappointing and the rice and beans were just insipid. The food wasn't "bad" but everything was so bland I had to scour the rental just for some salt. I am not a person who loves spicy food or too much flavor, so for me it was fine because I don't need a lot. However, if you are looking for good flavor, I would not recommend this shop. read more
