Ryan A.

First of all, why haven't all of Fresno Yelp'ers tried this restaurant and given it a review? I was looking for al pastor in Fresno after recently trying, Tacos El Gordo in Chula Vista and Leo's Tacos in Los Angeles. Who would've guessed that fresh al pastor off the spit would be so hard to find in Fresno. Especially with our deep Hispanic roots. I'm a regular at Don Pepe's because of their al pastor (and spicy shrimp tacos) :o Anyways, when I reached out to my friends and asked where to find some spit roasted al pastor here in Fresno, besides DP. I was sent to El Mercado Super. Sure, this is a small fast casual restaurant inside a grocery store. But that doesn't make it any less appealing, it might make it more appealing. Now on to the Tacos Al Pastor. The meat was sold, fresh, and hot. But it needed salt. But the hand made fresh tortilla made to order made up for the slightly bland pork. Now that I've found this little gem in Fresno, I'll become a regular.

It is a grocery store and restaurant with a small sitting area. They are the busiest on the weekend so it was a bit tight but not too bad. It is really clean and has a good grocery store selection regardless of the store being small. I ordered food and let me just say it was the best I've had in Fresno including my horchata drink. They make fresh tortillas as you order and all their meats are well seasoned. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family, and I'll definitely be returning to try out something else on their menu.

Best place to get horchata :) But customer service needs a little work. I go there often but no one ever greets.

This is one of our to go places when we crave asada tacos or quesadillas…read more Their meat it's so tasty, and very flavorful. They put plenty of cheese in the quesadillas. Their portions are big and very satisfying. We always get the same thing because we love it. Asada tacos, shrimps tacos, quesadillas, and vegan torta. The tacos like I mention before asada meat it's very tender and very tasty, so flavorful. The shrimp tacos come in flour tortilla and they have Mexican rice and cheese. My husband live them. Their asada tacos are with corn tortilla and some beans. Then you add your choice of salsa. I get the torta which they add the refried beans, avocado, and onion and fresh tomato. It is very good. They have Mexican bottled drinks and fountain drinks. Also they have horchata and Jamaica aguas frescas. They salsas are good too. They have red spicy, red mild, green mild and pico de gallo. They have 4 locations now. This place is very popular. Highly recommend.

We…read moreordered carne asada for the tortas and tacos and they literally threw it on the flattop seconds after ordering. Everyone who was working there was kind and attentive. As we were finishing our food they checked in on us to make sure everything was to our liking. There was no bakery aspect but they 100% delivered on fast, fresh and delicious food. Would absolutely visit again to get to try more of their menu! Gracias!

I don't think I've ever felt betrayed by Yelp reviews...until now…read more During a recent road trip we stopped here to picked up some lunch/dinner because tacos are quick and easy and their Yelp rating is high. Location/services: Upon entering the building I immediately noticed the heat. It was a hot 98 degree day and the restaurant felt like an oven and was maybe 3-5 degree cooler than it was outside. I then quickly noticed this was a very simple operation (almost like a food truck), and not much to the menu, but there were folks sitting and eating and a few others waiting to order, so I assumed the food must be great. We ordered 4 meals (tacos with rice/beans) which was meant to be eaten there but after waiting in line and feeling like we were in a hot box, we decided to make it to go. We sat and waited for our food (about 20 mins), we chatted and observed our surroundings and it became very apparent the restaurant was not maintained with basic cleaning because it was very grimy and just plain dirty. I then used the restroom and it was absolutely disgusting. Our ordered was called and the staff was very nice. The food: As I mentioned, we got 4 orders of tacos (all carne asada) with rice/beans, and we asked for salsa and limes. We got grilled jalapenos, lemons and one sandwhich baggy filled with red salsa. Not a big deal. The meat was fine but the tortillas were inedible. They were tough, flavorless, and greasy. The bean and rice were ok. We ate enough to curb our hunger but none of us finish our food. Upon my best judgement, I had convinced myself that the food was gonna be great because their Yelp rating told me so. I was so wrong! One last note, there was nothing here that resembled a bakery/panaderia. So if you think you could also grab a treat here, you are wrong.

What could have been a disappointing surprise turned into one of the best local dining experiences we've had in a long time. We had the pleasure of meeting Miguel himself, and his hospitality immediately stood out. He took the time to introduce us to several items on the menu and encouraged us to try a little bit of everything. I'm glad he did. The red beans and rice were absolutely phenomenal, and every single thing we tasted was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with pride. You can tell Miguel genuinely cares about both the food and the people he serves. What impressed me most wasn't just the food--it was the atmosphere. Miguel has a gift for making you feel welcome. His heart for hospitality is second to none, and it's obvious that serving great food and creating a great experience are his top priorities. If you're looking for a hidden gem in Clovis, this is it. Whether you're stopping in to catch a game, grab a meal with friends, or enjoy a simple flip-flop date night with your spouse, Miguel's is worth the visit. We'll definitely be back, and I can't recommend this place enough.

Strange set up. I…read morebeen to many liquor store food places this is a little un organized They have beer but you can't drink here bruh You pick up you drinks from a differnt area from your food ok not a big deal just didn't have a clue where to get items. Food. Tacos pretty bom carnitas but the asada was watery wet. Hella na kills it. Watery asada was not good almost 4$ a taco is bunk also. Place is clean nice. Have tvs for the game but again you can't drink here ? Sucks . They also serve bbq I chile to get a side only "patato salad" plain ass boring patato salad. No stars for that. I might come back to try more the bbq items

Not far from City College and definitely a great spot to grab some lunch!…read more I was on a job site when a coworker told me we had to stop here so I could try their bacon-wrapped burrito. First off, that sounded way too good to pass up! Once lunchtime came around, we made our way over. My buddy ordered the adobada tacos, while I went with the adobada bacon-wrapped burrito. I was seriously impressed. The burrito was packed with flavor, and I enjoyed it so much that I definitely see myself coming back. I also got to try one of my buddy's adobada tacos, and it was pretty good as well. If I had one small critique, it would be the cabbage on the tacos. When I think of tacos, cabbage isn't usually the first thing that comes to mind--I personally prefer some lettuce. But that's just my preference, and it didn't take away from the overall experience. The restaurant itself has a very open, spacious setup with more than enough seating. Every employee we interacted with was kind, friendly, and helpful, which made the visit even better. I'm really enjoying discovering all the great taco spots around Fresno, and this is definitely one I'd recommend stopping by and trying if you're in the area.

Two combination burritos for under $25. Yes, by historic (2019) standards it is expensive, but so…read moreis everything. However, El Premio Mayor comes in as less expensive, and tastier than Chipotle. The burrito was moist but it held up well inside the tortilla. The asada was okay, and the flavor didn't dominate. The green salsa had no spice to it, so that is that. We appreciated the food. The only negative is the parking lot at the McKinley location. Too few parking spaces, but hey, if you don't mind a short hike there is huge parking in the shopping center across the canal. We will go back.
