I wanted to find a great Quesabirria taco and a good Mexican restaurant. I have always liked the ones at The Taco Shop but was open to something new. The place was very clean and the menu board easy to read with a good layout. I placed my order just in time to beat the lunch rush. Help yourself chip and salsa bar was appreciated and having 6 choices of agua fresca was a pleasant surprise! The birria was very tasty and the right amount of meat inside. The consumé was perfect and not too salty. My only complaint is the tortilla could have held a little more red sauce and been grilled a little longer. I will return to try other menu items here. This is a gem of a find for me! read more

Food is delicious but made by another company or chef elsewhere Prices are out of line Two 4 inch street tacos are $8. Really good food but basically just warmed up at the restaurant and prepared elsewhere. I wonder who the actual food preparation is done by?? There are a few things removed from the menu Perhaps not easily just warmed up and hard to maintain quality This place was called Chuys about 2 1/2 years ago. The rumors are that there were some legal issues and he left and the new owners took over not long after that. Not much improvement aesthetically and hasn't changed in two years or more. Restaurants us clean and presentable. There are many places you can go in Redding and get the same quality or better and pay a lot less. read more

I only have good things to say. The staff are friendly and welcoming as you walk in. What I ordered was the California burrito, which comes with fries, rice, beans and meat. I got asada, but added two eggs and guacamole in the burrito, with cilantro and onions for added crispness and flavor. I asked for the tortilla to be crispy on the outside, but wish the fries were crispier. It was $15 for everything, which is a damn good deal, considering the size of the burrito. I'm not sure about the price of a regular Cali burrito, but what I ordered was $15. She even skipped the tip portion (I tipped in cash instead). read more

Small place , minimal decor . Could be cleaned up. The people are nice . Service was fine but the food was very average . Salsa was nothing special and the two dishes we got were large plates chicken burrito w three color sauce and chili relleno ( soggy , oily) were not very tasty. Sorry but I would not return. read more

Fantastic food made to order! Love it! Service was amazing, I will be returning very soon.

Still a top spot for good food in Redding. Service is friendly, polite, and quick. I tried the California burrito and it's my new fav. Great combo of flavors and for these days, a reasonable price. read more

Lovely people, good food, generous portions. Ruth is so warm and friendly. When she learned we were from Los Angeles, she suggested a restaurant in So Cal serving delicious dishes from her native Guatemala. Yay! More food to try - LIVE that for me! lol Hubby's steak quesadilla was HUUUGE and delicious. I was craving carne asada, but not typically made, so Ruth asked the chef to layer it on top of potatoes with cheese and a side of ranch dressing. Great! She also brought us comp chips and two kinds of house made salsa. Very nice. If I'm being totally honest, I was really looking forward to a margarita with my dinner, and found the picture of a beautiful one on the menu to be just a picture. They have beer available, but not a full bar license, so no margie. Bummer. But Ruth was super nice and food was good. Cheers! CC read more

Excellent! This is the type of gem you hope to find on Yelp. Small, tucked away, lots of pride in their menu and the quality of the food. Highly recommended. Don't let the setting (separate building in the back of the parking lot AutoWorks shop). Withe stop if you're driving by on Hwy. 5 too. read more

Followed Yelp review to this Mexican restaurant. This place shared a parking lot with an auto body shop. We were greeted promptly by a lovely lady. We ordered 3 kids meals, 2 homemade corn tacos and a taco salad. You can tell it is a great place just by the Delicious smell in the restaurant. My boys said it was the best taco and even beans and rice they have EVER tasted! Highly recommend it! read more

First time here was great. Two weeks later, lady was rude, kept saying on line order didnt match name. When we tried to so her it was ordered and paid through door dash, she still said it didnt match which was weird. We felt pretty disrespected, left and got a refund from door dash . Guess we wont be back . Darn it. read more

We were driving by Redding and decided to stop for some lunch. This place did not disappoint. The food wash fresh and had really good taste. Tortillas were hand made. Birria was delicious. Chilaquiles were on point. Sorry no pictures of the food. It was gone before I could snap some pics. Staff is super friendly, that was the icing on the cake! read more

They are located right next to the gas station- Look for the banners that say Burritos and Tacos. It's a medium sized taqueria spot, and there were a good amount of tables inside and a few available in the partially outdoor patio. They weren't super busy at 2:30pm on a Saturday. I was seated when I arrived, and tried: -Complimentary Chips & Salsa (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=g2ylJIkHVPS_SSsS2qB5AQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): So good! The chips were flavorful and crispy, and the salsa was also super flavorful. -Street Taco w/Carnitas ($2.35, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=z78D4EXvtWiath0noiNTlQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Solid street tacos, and the carnitas were flavorful. -Super Taco w/Carne Asada (Homemade Tortilla, Lettuce, Cheese, Guacamole, Sour Cream, $4.49, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=LmqpyECH-FvdM1MATyxZHQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): The carne asada had a good sear, but the super taco had too many ingredients going on. It was good, but I would stick to the street tacos. Service was friendly and efficient, and the food came out very quickly. There was plenty of parking when I came, but spots may be limited during the lunch and dinner rushes. read more

Started with standard chips and salsa. The salsa is very watery, but full of flavor. Definitely not from a can. So good I asked for a second container. I chose the veggie tacos that come with corn tortilla since I have to eat gluten free. The tacos were decent, but I'd be interested in trying other dishes too. This dish comes with refried beans that do not contain lard, so they're veg friendly. The rice was the best tasting rice I've had from a Mexican restaurant. My friend agreed. She ordered veggie enchiladas. She couldn't decide between red or green sauce, so she ordered one of each. The cooks we're very open to this. She prefers mild sauces and ended up preferring the green sauce made of tomatillo. We were interested in dessert, but sadly they don't have any on the menu. The owner delivered a small bowl of ice cream from her kids stash!!! Service like that only comes from a family run restaurant with soul. Definitely recommend. read more

The service was great and the food even better. I ordered the quesabirria and some bacon wrapped jalapeños. I took it home and I am looking forward to finishing them both. I especially enjoyed the quesabirria. read more

Loved the food! You've got to go here. Got a veggie enchilada, fajita veggie plate and a horchata. Loved every single item on the table. The corn tortilla were handmade and so fresh. They provide chips and salsa to start, which were pretty good too. The highlight was definitely the sizzling fajita served on a hot plate. I'll definitely go back if am in the area. Portion size was great, staff was very friendly and price for each item is exactly what u would expect. Highly recommend! read more

A cozy hole-in-the-wall & family-owned restaurant! Seems like the place is owned by a couple running the kitchens and their son attending tables. Super nice folks with great warmth and hospitality :) Chile Relleno || $11.95 Stuffed poblano chiles served with red sauce, rice, beans, and homemade tortillas. Large portion that's extremely filling and worth trying out. Chicken Fajitas || ~$12 Sauteed steak, peppers, and onions served on a hot sizzle plate. Comes with a generous platter of rice, beans, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, and a side of warm tortillas. The steak is tender without any pesky chewy bits. Love this entree! If you're in the area craving Mexican cuisine, definitely come check this place out! read more

How the hell does this place have 4.5 stars? Did I walk in on a really bad day? Ordered one chili relleno and one shrimp taco. $17! How do you charge $7 for one street taco? I immediately balked at the prices but figured it must be worth it with all the great reviews. Most definitely was not. I had to pick the disgusting dark green quac off my taco and the shrimp was funky. I'm fighting the urge to puke as I write this. Horrible experience read more

Went here with a group of friends. We all got different dishes (I got their sope with carnitas, which I LOVED). Everyone enjoyed their food, but I think I liked mine more than everyone else. We did think their salsa was different than salsas we are used to. I liked it, but I don't think all my friends did. I really like the decor, look, and feel of the restaurant - takes you outside of the typical Redding vibe. I'll be back. read more

Five. Stars all day long I haven't had tacos this good since Taco fish in La Paz for the Mexican, 1000.

A year ago, we moved from San Diego to Oregon. Other than our son, we miss the food from our favorite restaurants, especially Mexican food. So on a trip back to SD, we made sure to eat at our fav spots. On our way back up the state, after an 11 hour drive, we needed one last fix of Mexican food in CA before leaving the state. I found this place on Yelp, and so glad we ate here! It is a hidden (literally) gem located behind a gas station. Easy to just drive on by, but don't miss it. We got chips & salsa right away. We had the carnitas quesadilla and the carne asada tacos w/ rice and beans. All was delicious! Very generous portions. Very good rice & beans. We ate more than we should have, but it was very satisfying. As a bonus, the owners are a super friendly, lovely couple and their kids are adorable. Give this place a try. We definitely will stop by the next time we drive through town. read more

We have been meaning to stop here for awhile and finally were able to today. It was so delicious! Jose made us a recommendation for his favorite meat, which was carnitas and al pastor.
