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 serve up breakfast and lunch and close early so just be sure you check out their hours if you plan on coming by. But don't sleep on this place, you won't regret coming by.

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.

The Chips are Casera style so very thick and crunchy. They accompany them with a small bowl of beans which is a nice touch. Their table salsa is mild so I can stomach it. I've tried the pollo ala plancha (grilled chicken plate) fajitas, sopes and Camerones al mojo de ajo ( garlic shrimp). The best for me was the asada sope. The rest were on the bland side. Beans and rice are okay. I think they just need to do better when seasoning and flavoring their dishes.

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.

Taqueria El Premio Mayor

Shaw Avenue can feel like an international border in the way some people talk about eating in…read moreFresno. Suggest heading south and people act like it's an expedition. Taqueria El Premio Mayor is a good reason to make the journey, which, for the record, requires neither a passport nor provisions. A few blocks off Blackstone, near Manchester Mall, the surroundings show their age. With miniature liquor bottles scattered about the parking lot, it's an older, worn stretch of Fresno, but there is good food here and people happy to feed you. Whatever apprehension some diners might bring along should begin to dissolve at the counter, where the staff are friendly, efficient, and welcoming. Photos of the late Adrian Loza appear around the restaurant, and his likeness is part of the logo. Though he has sadly passed away, his presence is still felt throughout the place. The family atmosphere hasn't diminished with his passing. There is warmth here that goes beyond the pictures on the wall, carried on by the people greeting you and getting your food to the table. And the food? Excellent. The tacos and burritos are the sort that make you plan a return visit while you're still eating, although the gordita taco complicates the question of what to order next time. Its thick tortilla brings to mind the Indian fry bread tacos you might find at the fair, with the tortilla itself as much a reason to order it as anything tucked inside. There are hamburgers and hot dogs on the menu, too, perhaps a good option if you have children with you, but I've yet to find a reason to let them interrupt my progress through the tacos. Places like El Premio Mayor are part of what makes eating in Fresno worthwhile: food you want to come back for, served by people who make you happy you came. Go south of Shaw. The expedition takes twenty minutes, and there's a gordita taco at the end of it.

Tucked away in an awkward little spot between Shields and Maroa... it's not a nice, extravagant restaurant but it's exactly the place I would go to for tacos. It's a small little shop but they have more seating than you'd expect. Clean, nice staff, quick service, and amazing food? Yes, please. I got two Tripa tacos, one Cabeza-- everything on it. I did not realize 'everything' included the cabbage (next time, no)... the tacos were still bomb af but I'd prefer it without the cabbage next time, just the onions and cilantro. The salsa was perfect, loved the grilled onions, and the grilled jalapeno (need extra of that). Also got the Piña Agua Fresca-- very refreshing, yum! My friend got two Lengua tacos, one Adobad, and the Horchata... she was verrrry satisfied as well. We left with happy tummies. Two thumbs up! Until next time... because there definitely will be a next time! Adios!

You get the bold, authentic flavors of the food, the aromas of grilled meats and warm tortillas you can smell from a block away, and a lively, unpretentious atmosphere. The service is quick, warm, and welcoming. Their meat options include authentic grilled choices like asada, pollo, chorizo, tripas, lengua, and cabeza, along with slow-cooked specialties such as adobada and carnitas. I especially enjoy the carne asada (beef steak), which is rich, tender, and juicy, with a well-balanced blend of chiles, citrus, and spices. Their housemade salsas are fresh and vibrant, with a nice blend of zest, brightness, and balanced heat. So far, I have only had the chance to enjoy their tacos and burritos. Both come topped with diced onions and chopped cilantro and are served with fresh, juicy lemon wedges on the side. The menu also includes California burritos (with sour cream, guacamole, and cheese), breakfast burritos, quesadillas, nachos supreme, asada fries, tortas, gorditas, mulitas, and even a mariscos (seafood) selection. This "hole-in-the-wall on wheels" is parked next to a liquor store -- Yosemite Market off of E. Gettysburg Avenue (and N. Chestnut Avenue), and its unassuming appearance and food preparation practically radiate authenticity. They also stay open late, serving customers until 11 p.m. It is a hidden gem tucked away on a random street corner--another humble Mexican spot that easily outshines many brick-and-mortar restaurants and delivers a serious punch of flavor.
