Aporreadillo is a…read moretraditional Mexican dish made with dried meat that's fried to perfection, then mixed with eggs and sauce. Savory and packed with flavor, the kind of breakfast that definitely wakes up this Rex! And I couldn't leave without taking uchepos to go. These are one of my absolute favorites! Soft, slightly sweet fresh-corn tamales served with crema, queso fresco, and salsa. That sweet-and-savory combination is perfection. If you know, you know. And if you don't, this is your sign to try them! Rex Tip: They recently expanded the whole place, and it's much bigger than it used to be! You've got the restaurant, grocery store, bakery, and carnicería all under one roof. Come for breakfast and leave with sweet bread, groceries, and probably a few extra goodies. 5 ROARS from Focusaurus Rex!

I highly recommend him for anyone looking for delicious food, reliable service, and a smooth catering experience. Would definitely consider for future events!

Hearty, flavorful, and comforting, just like a good homemade Mexican soup should be. I've also enjoyed their wet burrito smothered in green sauce, a tamale without the red sauce on top, and a side of tamalito, a delicious sweet tamale! The perfect little treat to round out the meal. Everything is packed with flavor and keeps this hungry dino coming back for more! Now, this dino has traveled and experienced Casa Bonita in Colorado, and I'd call El Tapatío Citrus Heights' own little version! It's nowhere near as big or elaborate, but it has that same fun, immersive atmosphere. The colorful Mexican decor gives the place so much character, making you feel like you've been transported straight to Mexico. Pair that with authentic food, and you've got a dining experience that's more than just a meal! Rex Tip: Come hungry on weekend mornings because they offer a Mexican breakfast buffet! There are so many delicious, authentic dishes to choose from, including freshly handmade tortillas! Just be prepared for a line because this place is popular, and for good reason. We've happily waited our turn because the food is absolutely worth it! A little taste of Mexico right here in Citrus Heights that's definitely worth digging into! 5 ROARS from Focusaurus Rex!

El Tapatio in Citrus Heights is not a bad spot. Place was pretty spacious and wasn't too crowded…read morewhen I went. Got chips and salsa right when I sat down, but it was about 10 minutes before anyone came to take my order. Food came out in about 8 minutes after ordering though. I got the two steak tacos meal which came with refried beans and cilantro rice. The beans were actually a highlight for me, flavorful and piping hot. The tacos were decent overall and the steak itself was definitely the strong point, but the red onions weren't finely chopped and that was throwing me off a little. Overall not a bad spot if you're in the area and want some Mexican food.

Originally went to Taqueria Tres Hermanos to buy food. Their payment system kept declining my Apple…read morePay payment... I was showing the lady at the register I had money in my account. She stood there and looked at me like I was the problem . I even went to get my physical card from my car. Declined. Ok... so I went down the street to this place I kept seeing as I drove to my second job. Ordered and I knew I was in for a treat. This was the best burrito I have had in a long time. They do take credit/debit card with a fee... that's fine as long as the food is good. I was very impressed. The habanero salsa was great. I got a pollo asado burrito. You can actually taste the char from the well used grill on the chicken. I think I paid $14 for a burrito after the cc fee. Worth it. Still cheaper than chipotle and better too. I hope they stay consistent with the location and the time they are open. I work on Greenback on the weekends and this will become my new spot. Special shout out to Tres Hermanos' payment system not taking my card. I really appreciate you

Beverages were great - they have a fun selection of cocktails. I would highly recommend!

Wife and I each tried 2: I had the chicken mole and crispy potato tacos, wife had the rajas con queso and spicy shrimp. All were very tasty. - Guacamole was excellent with a nice brightness from the lime. Super fresh tasting. - Service was quick and friendly. - Nice restaurant interior, not fancy and surprisingly dark inside but comfortable and had Latin music playing at a pleasant, low volume. Cons: - Expensive. Tacos are very small (about 4 inches) and cost 7 or 8 dollars each. You need at least 2 per person, possibly 3 or even 4 if very hungry. Guacamole is pricey for the size at $14. Total bill came to over $70 (after tip) for 4 tacos, 2 sodas and 1 order of guac. Verdict: - I would love to come back and try some different offerings, so many to choose from! Food is 5 stars but the prices are a little high so 4 stars and we would probably not visit often just due to the cost. Well worth trying at least once though for the tasty food.

The other day he went to El Balcon to grab a shredded chicken burrito for lunch. After a number of bites he bit into a spot that he said tasted like tuna and immediately made him feel sick, and as he was noticing that he realized there was a curved shard of metal in his mouth. We were thinking because of the sudden tuna taste maybe it was part of a tuna can lid that somehow wound up in the shredded chicken container? How? How does that go unnoticed during the making of the burrito? If someone swallowed that it would cause pretty significant internal damage. He brought it to their attention and apparently they just offered him another burrito...um, no thanks. I would've at least asked for my money back but he's a better man than I and just let it go. I get that it's just a fluke and not all the food is gonna have metal in it, but it's more what it says about their quality control, and if it happened once I'm not willing to go back to see if it happens again.

I buy meat at the butcher counter, tortillas on the shelf, tomatillos and cilantro from the tiny carousel. Yeah and I'm thirsty so a can of guava juice, too. Today in addition to those items I bought a 1 lb container of the fresh ceviche. They ain't lying, it's fresh. Stays crisp in their fridge because it isn't drowned in sauce. I went home immediately with the goodies. Warmed up the tortillas, opened the ceviche, sprinkled some fresh lemon on it. Best light healthy lunch a grown man can get. Happiness.
