    Soft tacos were good 8/10
    Jaclyn R.

    This place is located inside the Redlands public market. Towards the middle near the seating. We got a few things that I'll rate in the pictures. Service was good and friendly. 10/10. Food was good. I'd come again.

    First time trying Fred's Red Tacos and I can absolutely say I will be back again and again! Delicious, definitely comparable to our families our recipe. Flavorful! Seasoned to perfection I love that 2 salsa options are available but honestly i didn't need it since it was so flavorful! Super Fresh and the gentleman with a mustache that handed over the food was so sweet! Thank you Freds Red Tacos This new customer will be back!!

    My wife and I came here because we saw they had 20% off for happy hour from 2-6. We had to order on these kiosks that were running windows xp, and not only that, but they didn't include the discount. The cashier told us to "wait 5 minutes" and try again, even though it was 4:45. Eventually, she checked us out herself, which was nice, but the whole thing took twice as long as it should have. The other restaurants in the Redlands Public Market didn't seem to be familiar with the happy hour either, so be aware of that if you come here. We both got birria tacos which were great, but a little on the cold side. Overall ok.

    Happy hour confusion? This whole place advertises happy hour from 2-6pm on Monday-Thursday but none of the spots seem to know about it. My husband and I were starving and wanted Birria tacos and were told to order on the kiosk. The kiosk didn't offer the 20 percent off happy hour that the sign right above it was advertising. This was a Wednesday at 4:30pm mind you. So it was def happy hour. I kindly asked the server about it and she didn't know what I was talking about. The server behind her said that it was over at 6 and then I said it was 4:30... she then took our order at the kiosk. It was a bit of a frustrating experience because there's signs that say happy hour but people are asked to order at the kiosk and the kiosk doesn't have happy hour adjustments on it. The Birria tacos are super tasty but this confusion dampened the whole experience.

    Street Taco Trio
    Annie H.

    This was our first time at Redlands Public Market, and we decided to grab a small bite from Fred's Red Tacos. We ordered the street taco trio, and they only had two meat options that night: birria and carne asada. We opted for two birria tacos and one carne asada taco. Our tacos were a bit small, but that's to be expected for street tacos. The birria tacos were nice and flavorful. The carne asada was a bit tough, but the flavor was good. Their tortilla chips were especially good, and you could tell that they were made in-house.

    Carne Asada burrito

    Ordered the regular burrito with Carne Asada. It was actually a solid tasting burrito and the size was pretty good. The cheese and beans definitely made the burrito stand out a bit. I did get pieces of "cuero" aka fat in the carne asada. The type you can't chew and gotta take out your mouth. Overall, 3/5. In my opinion, I will say you are paying extra because of the location. A $16.00 burrito is pretty pricy for what it was. Service: I can't speak on the service much, as they had a sign telling you to "-order at the kiosk". However they were nice enough to split the burrito for me when i received it.

    The Birria tacos were so delicious, the consume I drank it up after and the green salsa/sauce was a perfect addition to my meal plus the Redlands Public Market has a great vibe!

    $5 fries

    So first of all when we got to the counter we were waiting to give our order. After waiting a bit the lady came over and stood there without saying a word. So I asked her if we can order and she nod her head. We ordered the Grilled cheese birria, a birria wrap that looked like Taco Bell's crunch wrap, $5 fries Some Horchata. It cost $55!!!!! When we got our food I seen the fries was half empty and hard. I asked her is that all the fries we get for $5 and I showed her the picture on the menu where the they look fresh and full and she said no this is how they come. Wow!! My daughter said that The grilled cheese was ok. My birria wrap needed more flavor and was squishy and falling apart. The Horchata taste a little water down. With all the options at the market I don't think I will eat there again. The area and the atmosphere is nice because it's inside the new Redlands market area and there is some entertainment provided by the market.

    Grilled cheese birria
    Carrisa J.

    Came with little to no expectations but damn that grilled cheese birria blew me away! Redlands Public Market has so many options and it's inevitable to be overwhelmed, but their grilled cheese birria is definitely a must try when you're here. Portion is pretty hefty for one person. It's filled with so much flavor and juicy birria and cheese--a flavor bomb waiting to explode, even more when you dip it into the consomé. I'm salivating just looking at these photos that I took!

    While walking around in the Redlands Public Market, I was drawn to this bright and colorful light. I walked closer and saw "To Die For Fred's Red Tacos" with red and yellow neon lights. Too funny! I had to find out what's so amazing that's too die for so here I am LOL. Food and humor is the perfect combo! I believe one of the ladies behind the counter was in training. The other lady was the trainer. Both were hospitable and very helpful in answering my questions. They serve burria, tacos, burritos, quesadillas, salads, fries and more. Their most popular item is the cheesy and crispy Quesataco in birria style. I had to get one of them, but with chicken instead of beef. I also got 2 single street tacos with chicken. My order came with chips and salsa. All their food items are made to order. OMG... Quesataco was so delicious... very crispy and cheesy as advertised. Chicken was well flavored. If I knew how tasty it is, I would have gotten 2 more. Highly recommend it. "To Die For" verified! As for the chicken tacos, I can't say the same unfortunately. Chicken chunks are slightly tough. Flavor was meh... need more seasoning. I was disappointed. I may give them another try next time. Hopefully I get a better outcome. Chips and salsa were good though. Friendly staff. Quick service. Great prices. If you're craving for "To Die For" great eats, Fred's the right place for you! Come on by and support them.

    Loaded Birria Nachos

    This was on my go to places to visit. This was the first time going to Redlands Public Market and to especially Fred's Red Taco's. Redlands Public Market is located in Redlands and 3rd Street, next to Denny's Restaurant. Parking can be a challenge in my personal opinion, but there is plenty of parking across at the now closed Loop Theater. Once inside the Public Market they are located in the middle of the pathway. Their speciality is their Birria meat. Looking at their menu, everything looked really looked good in my opinion. I decided to order: Loaded Birria Nachos. It comes with: Fresh fried chips, peppered queso blanco sauce, beans, birria, topped with sour cream, creamy serrano sauce, onion, cilantro, fresh guacamole and pickled onions. When you arrive you have the option of ordering on the kiosk or order ahead for pickup When you place your order on the kiosk, you input your phone number so you can be notified via text your order is ready for pick up. When my order was ready, I was eager to try and it did not disappoint. The size of the Loaded Nachos was ok, but it looked deceiving in my opinion. I was very eager to try and the flavors were amazing in my opinion. I would tell that it was prepared fresh and the combination of flavors meshed very well overall in my opinion. For my drink, I decided to get a Mexican Coke. The Birria was very flavorful and the meat was tender. I thought the overall size would not fill me up, but it sure did. There is plenty of seating inside the Public Market and there is outside seating as an option. My overall experience was great and the overall size for the Loaded Nachos impressed me. In my personal opinion, I would recommend Fred Red Taco's if you have never tried Birria and if you are in the Redlands area. For my next visit, I want to try their other items on the menu.

    Located inside the RPM! The aguas frescas were 10/10! Birria taste was a little off then traditional but it wasn't bad. Maybe 8/10 The fries were $17 plus tax. Service was nice and very friendly got some samples for the aguas Service: 10/10 Located inside a food hall so lots of seating , music, etc

    Menu as of 05/2025

    This was our first time going to the Redlands Public Market. Parking was a little tough during a Tuesday evening, but there is a parking structure, a block away. They also have trivia night on Tuesdays if anyone is interested! We got a platter of the Original Quesatacos. I was really excited because I love birria. Overall, the food was pretty good. The food was super hot and smelled great. Overall, the quesatacos were good. The consome was a little bland, but adding my own salt and lime really brought the flavors out. We would buy this again. Overall, the market is a great place for a date night or a group outing. There's a good amount of indoor seating and there are a variety of food options.

    Food was delicious!!!…read more I had the nachos and they were very substantial. I asked if the sauces on top had mayo and was told they only have cream Our waiter was great as well, very attentive! I wish I'd gotten his name The music was good but it was a little too loud I couldn't hear the other people at my table, and they are not quiet ladies. The walk to the bathroom was an experience though. It felt like you were entering catacombs so weird. Otherwise everyone working there was nice, all 3 of us love our food, the starter portions were more than enough for one person to have as an entree. Sharing between 2 people would be a good portion but idk the size of entrees because we only got starters. Seemed nice and clean too Enjoyed our time here, we will be back

    The food was great, the drinks refreshing, and the service so polite! But the music was so loud…read more We were sat in the back by the bar with minimal wait on a Saturday night. 6 people and maybe 15 min wait. Our waitress has on break, but this was communicated well and rhe other staff stepped in until she returned. We got a mix of drinks and food and loved every sip and bite. I will say the serving sizes are not what I'm used to for a Mexican restaurant but not tiny, around 2 to 3 tacos per plate. I got the birra tacos and I do wish they would have had a side but it wasn't a huge issue. Now the music for the elephant in the room. It was very loud in the small space. I would say club level, which is a lot for a dining experience. It didn't take away too much, just made talking hard. Another summer specific thing to point out, it is not the standard California A/c situation. We were in not way dying of heat, but it was warm. The day's temperature was around 102° so that of course was taken into account. If you have a group of friends that need some yummy food, this is your spot. Just maybe not a 1st date location, OR the perfect 1st date place

    After several visits, I can honestly say this is some of the most friendly service in Redlands…read more Always a smile. Then there is the food. I have only tried the tacos. They are too good for me to try other things, so it has been all tacos. I like the combo, al pastor, asada, guisada, and they are great. The rice and especially the beans are very tasty. The place is bright and clean, even the restroom, and well cared for. Redlands has some great vegan choices, more than most towns, and BZ Taco is one of the best.

    First off, I ordered a Horchata Agua Fresca and didn't receive it (UE Delivery)…read more I assume that the high ratings are due to people who lack any taste buds, because there was a very noticeable lack of flavor in everything that I ordered. The Guisada taco was the only meat with any flavor, it was good, but where they messed up is in the tortillas; they were dry and tough...yes, tough. They were not properly heated and should have been brushed with a little bit of oil. 5/10 The asada and al pastor literally had the same flavor. They were bland, needed some additional spice and seasoning. You can taste a bit of the marinade that was used, but it's very subtle. 3/10 "Fish" taco had a good, homemade corn tortilla, soft and pliable, but that's about the best I can say about it. The 3 miniature, skinny filets of fish were a joke. I'm sure the cooks were laughing as they made it. When I opened up the container, my first thought was that they forgot the fish. I had to dig up under all the cabbage to find the minuscule pieces. They should be ashamed. Again, this was very bland just like everything else. 2/10 Salsas: Red-only heat, no flavor. Green-watered down, no flavor, the limes had more flavor than the green salsa. Pineapple-bland, but was the only one that had a bit of flavor. I liked that it wasn't too sweet. This place will go on my NEVER AGAIN list, which is sad because I love to support small businesses, especially vegan/vegetarian ones.
