    Very disappointed. Have not been here in a few years until now. The price to food quality and quantity does not work. Ordered one regular burrito and four tacos. The burrito was definitely on the small side and the tacos were like children size tortillas for over $28.00. Asada was very salty and the chicken was seasoned fine.

    Chicken salad to go, yummy

    Best salads and burritos in town. A lot of new employees and new system for ordering. awesome customer service!. And as you will notice us by my pictures I'm hooked on their salads

    All three "beef" enchiladas are chicken.

    See all

    Best Mexican food to go in Ripon by far! Burritos could be a little bigger, but I understand that it's a marketing thing!

    Absolutely the worst service we've ever received. The owners son helped us out at the end of their…read moreday. We did come in 10 mins before they were closing, we thought we could still grab some tri tip sandwiches. We walked in and the son said with a sigh and attitude, Hi How can we help you? We ask for the sandwiches to which he sighs again and says Sure! Sarcastically. He checks the cooler then slams that shut. Then the other employee asks what we wanted and he says loud enough for us to hear, just two sandwiches! And the other one responds "I just put that away." Then he says that's usually how it goes!! He comes back out and they're making little comments to each other. We wait maybe 5 minutes and it's ready which is great. Until the other kid dropped the paper bag on the counter and says here you go! With a sarcastic voice and smile. I never want to be a Karen but this was some of the worst customer service I have ever received. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone especially for just two half way decent tri tip sandwich for $38. Yikes. You would think that a family owned business would want to provide good customer service.

Also available in specialty Mexican Fajita style prepped meats & custom made seasoning to go for the backyard pit bosses. The meat counter has a large variety of traditional Mexican Seafood available as well. Next to the meat counter is a Mexican cheese section where there is a large variety of top quality Mexican style cheeses ( free Samples upon request) Moving over to the Food. There is a full service food counter with a large selection of traditional Mexican dishes. You can order anything from Burritos, Birria plates, tamales, etc. the menu is vast. Connected to the food counter is a salsa bar. There you can order casero salsa to guacamole and all salsas and spicy levels in between. Continuing onto the bakery. Hands down in my opinion the best pumpkin empanadas in San Joaquin County, plus a large variety of other Mexican Sweet breads. You can order offer specialty cakes for all occasions. Also sold in complete cakes and individual size cake-cups. The store also has a nice selection of Mexican products and produce. Lastly you can order pre-made Tamale Masa, and catering is available. The staff a clean cut well groomed, knowledgeable, and bi-lingual in every department. This is a High Quality store both in products and staff.

This one has been in a couple of locations but service is good and friendly. They have so many prepared foods in the deli that lunch is a good possibility, although they could use a few tables, inside or outside. I got a burrito de carne asada today and it was huge. For the price, it was an even better value. It was quite tasty. I forgot about the tamales, or I would have asked for those. They had a few and they might not have had what I liked but still...tamales. The meats in the display looked good and fresh. The rest of the store is neat and clean. The cashier was friendly and efficient.

    So I finally came in to buy some meat and I bought some carne asada arrachera meat and they…read moreactually cut it fresh as I ordered it. This is the best way to buy meat because most of the time butchers at the store have it presliced and prepackaged and the juices (blood) drains if the meat and it no longer tastes fresh. I threw it on the grill and seasoned it and it was the best carne asada I've ever tasted. So I highly recommend you buy your meat here. If you don't see what you want in the cold case, don't be discouraged and tell him what you want and more than likely they will have it. I'm talking about steaks that you want to grill for carne asada. Enjoy!

What makes it special; is the new & improved meat counter & produce area. Fabulous!! They take special orders for the meats & fish that they carry. Love that! Their meat and fish dept is on par, price-wise, with major supermarkets, most of the time. I might pay $.40 a pound, more for catfish in season, but the price doesn't change out of season. Year-round, it's the same. (I'd buy fish here before I would at Save-Mart or O'Briens!!) I also don't have to drive 7 miles down the road for the $.40 cheaper per pound, price, for frozen stuff. Gas costs! I definitely don't have to put up with fish that doesn't look or taste as well as what I buy locally. I can examine each and every piece of meat or fish that I buy there. No packages hiding huge pieces of fat underneath or smelly fish. If anyone has a problem with the butcher part of the store, no worries. They take great pride in the meats & fish that are carried now. I have actually been told, once, that I could not buy the poultry that I wanted, as it wasn't fresh enough. I bypass supermarket fish, catfish & produce to purchase from here. You can not beat it for taste and price. Owners are very friendly and very helpful. Staff speaks fluent English as well.
