OVERPRICED There is no other food place like this in Merced so When i crave I go. Everything is good EXCEPT the birria it had no flavor. Also they do not do a good job with sharing their menu or prices make sure you ask lots of questions before you order. Also they are understaffed Wish I could give it. 4 stars but if only they saved money on the personalized wax paper they could pay more staff and lower the prices lol read more

We decided to go here because I follow their instagram and the food looked good. It was close to another taco truck that we go to frequently but we decided to try something new. The food was good but the customer service is just not worth it. The girl taking our order was annoyed that we were even there so much so that she took my order wrong. When I called to complain she said to message instagram and her excuse was that she was the only one there. She was rude from the beginning and I probably won't be back. read more

If you like saucey asada fries, I highly recommend. Their flavor is just very unique I think due to their sauce. The food there is great! It's usually a pick up and go and not a sit down and eat due to limited chairs. Service is okay, it's not the best and not the worst! read more

I just order a asada torta and asada fries they gave me nachos with asada not exactly the same I don't know how they get confused on that and they said we'll be ready in 1015 minutes. I'm pretty sure I was there like in 2025 minutes and they still told me five more minutes cause they weren't even ready when I get home. I noticed that that's not what I ordered. Usually they're good but I don't know what happened today today. It's a Sunday the fourth at 6 PM. read more

These were probs the worst asada fries I ever had. Fries were stale and pretty much felt like chewing rubber. I know them fries ain't fresh tasted like them Walmart frozen fries. read more

The chica taking the order needs to kick rocks Luis Magallon she's poisoned w bad customer service. We are passing by Merced only and this was the only thing around here and nope nope the girl needs to go to Customer Service school. Burrito supreme should come w sour cream, that's a no brainer. read more

Food was cold, hot cheeto tacos had no hot Cheetos on them. A little dissatisfied with my lunch for the day

I had the Birria Ramen. The ramen tasted good as well did the Birria. But the Consume was over powered with a salty taste. I was really hungry this day and was expecting to eat the whole thing. But the over consumption of sodium ruined it for me. Maybe i have to try to cut it woth lemon next time. read more

El Sope - Menu - Empanadas Near Me - Merced, California

I visited El Sope for the first time, upon my arrival, I wasn't really greeted, it was more like of a "what do u want" Secondly, I was told right away to move my car from the gas station. Apparently you can't park there and if so, they should make a really big sign so people that are going for the first time don't make this mistake. Secondly. The girl taking my order Had no sense of customer service. I, on the contrary, tried to be nice to her and still couldn't get not even a smile from her. This is very bad when they gave me my order. Thankfully the guy Luis was very nice that made me feel a little better. I also asked for radishes, and the girl told me that they didn't carry any but in their other pictures, it shows that they had them. The food itself was OK, I was surprised that it was really good. However, due to the CUSTOMER SERVICE , I will not be returning to this place unless someone else takes my order. I will not give my money to someone that is not pleasant to customers. I wil ONLY RETURN IF SOMEONE ELSE TAKES MY ORDER NOT THAT GIRL! (With the blonde). She's not nice.sorry read more

Their food here is really good, their birria quesadillas are so good and the tacos are yummy too. A lot of Mexican restaurants around here I don't care for but this place is actually pretty damn good. read more

Hot Cheetos taco and street taco The hot Cheetos taco was good but the street taco's meat was too dry and the tortillas were stale,even the lime slice was too dry to juice up the tacos :/ My order was through doordash and took about 15mins to arrive which was great but seems like they gave me old food.. read more

Took quite a while standing out in the 103 degree heat to even be addressed. When I finally was there was literally no communication she just turned around and evidently started putting my order together. The food was really good but I was missing my consume which really would have made the meal. Pretty upsetting since I drove 30 minutes to get this meal. read more

My first time here and Wtf is this place!!! I ordered a burrito and it was COLD and had nothing but cheese and sour cream No rice no beans like what in the actual fuck was the person making this thinking???? DISAPPOINTED AF drove all the way home to see this had to drive across town to have him remake it and he says sorry we're out of rice and beans okay so why did you sell me a burrito in the first place I specifically asked what comes in the burrito (because I didn't want salsa in it) and he knowingly sold me this took my money ! read more

Quesabirra is amazing, highly recommend them. Best one I have in a while. Get the orange sauce if you like spicy

Don't pull up to this place and order in person unless you are willing to wait 1hour for your food. Also the Fb and IG page say they open up at 11am but they don't, more like 11:30. Lastly don't bother in calling in your order they don't even pick up the phone lol. Absolutely ridiculous. read more

Best birria not greasy delicious tacos. Clean place I love it here. I am pregnant and it's all my son wants

The birria TJ taco was amazing...the birria was perfectly cooked, with a good balance of flavor and fattiness. The hot Cheeto taco was surprisingly good. I loved the nacho cheese on it! I would recommend that they make their sopes thinner so that they can be evenly cooked. Overall, El Sope hit the spot. read more

Food was very very greasy. girl that takes the order is very disrespectful and has no sense of customer service. they gave me the wrong order and the tortillas tasted very old. they gave me no salsa, no jalapeños or radishes when i asked for some. Just very bad customer asked who was the manager and she lied and said to look on facebook. Don't recommend coming whatsoever. read more

Was getting gas at the chevron their parked at and I love birria tacos so wanted to give them a try. I got the quesa birria and it was pretty good. It was even better the next day. My husband got a Al pastor burrito and he loved it. One of the things that took me for a loop is the charge a $1.00 more for the consome. I've never had to pay extra for consome , usually if you get birria consome comes along with it. They also charge for salsa, not extra salsa just salsa period. But I'll go back I want to try something different. read more

Sadly this truck should just give up and stop selling disgusting food. Just look at the tacos that we had to wait an hour for. They look sad and the meat was so hard and dry. We didn't even eat them. Poor food had to go in the trash. they didn't even put lime or napkins. read more

I've came here a few times, usually get the birria. Until yesterday I would say this place is pretty good. Came yesterday got asada fries and an asada burrito. Not even edible. So many weird fatty pieces you can't take a single bite without having to spit something out. And a few long stringy weird pieces that hard hard bits in them. Hopefully you weren't serving asada with bone in it yesterday. Contacted them via ig where they are active constantly and received no reply. Have to let people know to be careful read more

First time ever trying this place and I got food poisoning. I ate only a little of the food because I thought it tasted weird but a few hours later I was vomiting uncontrollably. read more

Food is greasy and soggy. The authentic birria flavor is not there. The carne asada fries had a small pinch of meat and lots of soggy fries buried in cream and cheese. What makes me not recommend this place is the overcharged prices. They charge more for food than advertised on their menu that's painted on the food truck. read more

The food is great. It could be better with good customer service. The younger that is taking orders has no sense of customer service. She has sense of urgency, but both need to go hand-in-hand, and be polite and courtesy with the customers since we are the ones making the business grow. read more

I am very disappointed with the food and customer service received on 12/20. We ordered a burrito and received fries. We also order a side of rice and bean. The rice was OK, but the beans were sour. I'm not sure how much time and temperature abuse they had, but I would not recommend this place. Unfortunately we were really looking forward to it. Also, I messaged them on Instagram, and they completely ignored my message. I sent a second message because no one answered their phone and no response. read more

The food is really good and that's why I keep giving them chances but omg please train your employees. They have no clue what's on the menu or what comes on anything. They don't answer the phone for pick up orders and then you get there and the wait for your food is 45 min. I ordered 4 keto tacos and they only made one for me saying they were big lol. What if other people were eating with me? They're choosing how much we order now? Were we supposed to share? They did throw in a keto taco for free. I put a pic of it here. even though it looks like crap it did taste good lol. read more

I got the quesa birra tacos. They were pretty good. Could have used a little more flavor, but overall was good.

I tried this place for the first time and it was pretty tasty. The price of a taco is higher than other taco trucks but the size make up for it. The reason I give it a 1 star is that they always seem to be out of meat or something and it's like midday. I went on different days and they're always out of what I want... read more

Ive came twice and they are never open on time. They are always saying they're late because of excuse after excuse.

The birria tacos were really good. The sauce they put on the California tacos wasn't too good. That's why I'm giving three stars. The sauce ruined the entire taco. read more
