So happy I found this place, what a gem! Was looking for a simple bean and cheese burrito and found Little Mexico City based on their great Yelp reviews and proximity to Modesto. As others have said, don't be dissuaded by the location being in a gas station. It's very clean inside and has a sitting area with a fun TV advertising the popular dishes there (can't wait to try them all!). Nubia was very kind and helpful with great customer service. I ended up ordering a bean and cheese burrito (they grill it after making) and two street tacos (grilled/lightly fried tortillas). The bean and cheese burrito was delicious, and I enjoyed it with the cotija cheese. The chicken and pork pastor tacos were delicious and so fresh tasting, not greasy or heavy at all. Highly recommend and I am looking forward to trying their breakfast burritos (which they make all day) and tortas! Muy delicioso y buena gentes! read more

Regular Asada burrito was horrible super salty crispy and dry. Regular pastor taco was OK. First time I can't remember throwing away a burrito read more

This place gets huge ratings and I've always wanted to try it, but I was never in town. However, that changed today when I gave my brother a ride to pick up his truck from the shop in Ceres. My son, brother, and I made the trek. Located inside a Chevron gas station, it is rather concealed if you don't know the location. We were greeted by the owner and, as first timers, asked him for the rundown. He said he is known for his tortas and recommended the Torta Cubana. That is what both my brother and I ordered (with egg added). My son custom made a breakfast burrito (which the owner said was also a popular choice, served all day). We each got Horchata drinks, which are handmade using the owner's mom's recipe. The dining room has lots of clean tables, so we sat and waited with eager anticipation. Our food came promptly and included two large squeeze jars of homemade salsa (green and red) to add as topping. The high ratings are well deserved. The Cubana torta was awesome, a great combination of meats. My son barely finished his breakfast burrito and he said it was one of the best he's had. Horchatas were awesome and the salsas were excellent. The owner was super helpful and extremely friendly. You can tell he takes pride in his food and wants the customer to enjoy their experience. Now that we know how good this place is, we won't be afraid to make the drive from out of town to visit again! read more

Don't let the location fool you -- this place is incredible! Little Mexico City is tucked inside the Chevron on Mitchell, but the food tastes like it's straight out of an authentic Mexican kitchen. The Carne Asada Torta was amazing -- perfectly seasoned steak, fresh bread, and all the right toppings. The chicken taquitos were equally delicious, crispy and flavorful without being greasy. The owner is super nice and helpful, offering great recommendations and clearly takes pride in what they serve. Come here for the food -- you'll be surprised at how good it is! Definitely one of those hidden gems worth going out of your way for. read more

First time here today inside the gas station of chevon. Food is really good, I got a Torta with chorizo and egg, really flavorful. Family got flautas, tortas, and chilaquiles. Customer service was really great, ambiance is chill, and when you come here, you come for the food. Would definitely be coming back! read more

Pretty good but pricey. I got a chili relleno burrito with asada and it was 19 dollars.

This place is amazing! Known about it since 2021, had the joy of bringing my s/o to this spot and he was amazed as well. Cuban is my favorite! read more

3rd day in a row for lunch. I'm in love with their food. Yes it's kinda weird they're located inside the Chevron gas station but OMG you gotta try their food. The vegetarian burrito is so amazing I've had it 2 days in a row. My first visit I had the potato taquitos also exquisite. Their salsa both the green and red are equally amazing. My tongue can't decide which is better. I literally want to lick the lil container they give you clean. I'll be back to try their torts with egg, cheese and potato and their chiliquiles. read more

I stopped by Chevron while my car was getting serviced next door and smelled something amazing. I followed my nose to the back and saw someone chowing down on a torta, instantly making me hungry. The staff member who greeted me was super friendly. After some chat, I decided to go for the chili relleno burrito, a dish I'd never tried before. The burrito came out quick, and let me tell you, it was girthy - the size of my forearm and thick thicccc. When I took that first bite, it was heaven. The rice and beans had a nice seasoning and the green chili was tender melted cheese inside. Both their red and green sauces were bomb too. Honestly, it's one of the best burritos I've ever had in the 209. I'd totally recommend trying the supreme chili relleno burrito, and next time, I'm definitely adding Carne Asada to it!!! read more

If I am on this side of Ceres and I'm hungry, this is a go to spot! Food is so good, and very nice people. It is inside a gas station, which looks a little odd or seems like it, but I swear it is a legit place to eat ! I got a grilled chicken torta this time & in the past have had their burritos read more

Little Mexico City - Grilled Grill Chicken Torta both salsas are so good! - Mexican Near Me - Ceres, California

Been coming here for a few years. Heard about this place when I was working at The Hope Chest. The Carne Asada Torta and burritos are so good. Especially their homemade tortilla chips. Love Nubia and Luis, they are so nice and treat me like family. They pretty much know my order when I come in. Sometimes I'll just come in to say hi and order their homemade shakes which are also good and they make it with fresh fruits. You won't be disappointed. read more

Pretty damn good burrito. Really like the hot green sauce. One of the guys working there told us to try the torta next time that's what they are known for. I asked the lady when she called are order for some extra jalapeños she said you already got some. Not used to that kind of response. We will give it another shot read more

I ordered a breakfast burrito from Little Mexico City. It was so delicious! This is definitely my go to place for great food!

We came from merced we had a Cuban tortas and sopes! Food was delicious and the servi was Highly recommend everyone to come and eat here! The jamaica was amazing too! Check out git's! read more

In just two words: come here. In longer review to fulfill the character requirement: Luis is awesome too.

I drove from Stockton to Ceres to check out this restaurant I found on Instagram the experience was 10 out of 10 customer service was great. I even got a free appetizer and drink when I told her how far I traveled the food came out fresh and hot. My favorite was the super burrito, Asada and the potato taquitos. We also ordered a chicken deep-fried quesadilla and a simple sope she surprised us some type of fries that had chipotle sauce on them!! to drink I had Horchata it was great my daughter got a strawberry milkshake and my cousin got a banana milkshake they were OK. I can't wait to go back. I wish they were closer. read more

The food was delicious the costumer service was awesome. My favorite is their breakfast burrito but this time I got a sope and it was so good! They also have real fruit smoothies that are good too. I'll definitely be back soon. I highly recommend if you're looking for a quick bite to eat. They are awesome! read more

This palce is soo good. Whatever you select of the menu you will not regret it. Definitely a hidden GEM. The service is good.

Went in not knowing what to expect and gave their tortas a shot and they were bomb!! Would recommend to anyone he loves Mexican food!

An absolute hidden gem. It's so hard to find Mexican food that genuinely tastes like my families homemade Mexican food but this is the closest I've gotten to it. This is my favorite dish I have tried so far. You can't beat the price as well. It's a filling dish on its own. The rice and beans are not the absolute best I've ever had but they were good as well. The green salsa is great. I found that the paco de gallo has a bit too much pepper in it for my liking so I just ask for it on the side or without now. The service is great. The restaurant is inside a chevron so there's only so much greatness in ambiance there. They have sufficient comfortable seating. They may be tired of seeing my face because I've been there 3 times this week alone. I'm vegetarian and one suggestion is to have plant-based meat options that would really set it apart from other Mexican restaurants. read more

Nobody does tortas like them period!!!! I have found our new spot. read more

Long story short something changed. I've been here so many times I have lost count. First experience was not pleasant. But this hidden spot in the back of the Chevron gas station improved to say the least. On this occasion I ordered outside the usual and had the torta Hawaiiana, ummm it's gone! Yes, what I planned to have for dinner ended up in the digestive track before I could finish writing this review ‍. No regrets, bread was fresh. Flavor were all there. Not one ingredient over powered the other. Now for the heathland juicers. Well let's just say I'm not feeling one ounce of guilt the freshly pressed orange and carrot juice. May this power punch improve my vision. Oh, order yourself the tacos dorados de papa. They are also super good. read more

This is perhaps my most favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. Granted I haven't been to them all, but that's where it stands so far. I'm a big fan of their nachos and I always get them with their pickled jalapeños. Prior to eating here I had never had pickled jalapeños. They add so much flavor to the nachos. Yes the location in a Chevron gas station is different, but the few items I have had have been delicious. I love the way they make their beans. I'm vegetarian so I can't speak to the meat situation, but I'm pretty happy with the vegetarian options here. read more

I did not have the same experience as these other reviews. My tacos were bland tasting and on top of that when I went to order.. the girl was rushing me. Not terrible but I would not go back again. read more

I've literally never had a better nacho anywhere, ever, in my life. I didn't think I would like it being topped with pickled jalapeños because I don't like super hot stuff, but they are SO good, it adds just the perfect amount of spice. Good beans & cheese. Just overall excellent. I'm vegetarian so haven't had any of the meat options, but this is so good I'm happy forever. Nice staff too. read more

Buckle up. I am about to take you on a trip on the yumville express. So how did I find this place you ask? Well one night I was looking at YouTube videos and happened to come across this Mexi Papas video. I happened to view the Little Mexico City Video he produced. The food looked amazing so I wanted to try it. I had my sidekick in tow (wife). This place is tucked inside a gas station. Yes, I know many of you would have turn around and left but I was committed. We walked in and the owner quickly greeted us. He was quick to offer us assistance and answer any questions. I was here for the cubano torta and the huarache. Nothing more.... The grill masters went to work on building these masterpieces. The food came out and it was time to eat. I tried the huarache first. Oh my lord. This was delicious. Made to perfection. Loved the firmness of the flat corn sope. Next was the torta. Holy moly. AMAZING! For those who fell off the yumville express while taking this ride to yumville, I told you to buckle up. The bread was soft, the fillings were perfect. I can see why there was a YouTube video done on this little hole in the wall. The question is would I come back? Heck Yeah!!!! My kids would love to try this place out. read more

We were pretty disappointed. First, don't even bother with their "tacos". No flavor, skimpy on the meat. Beef had zero seasoning and was hardly warm. The burrito wasn't much better. Beans/rice/meat just didn't have any flavor. It's like all the ingredients were cooked with no seasoning. $35 for 2 tacos and 2 burritos. Sorry, but much tastier options in town for much less. We won't be back. However the gal working the register was super sweet and helpful. Glad we at least tried it so we can cross it off our list. read more

Was there a few weeks ago great service great food my breakfast burrito was huge and delicious

First time trying this place I asked the waitress what's the best she recommended torta Cubana with egg ...

This place doesn't disappoint. I've tried the super burrito de pastor, pambazos, torta de pastor, sopes, and licuado de plátano. That's all I can think of at the moment but none of the food disappoints. Seriously it's bomb diggity, and I even manage to convert 3 people to LMC! read more

My son recommended this place. I stopped by last week. The people are very friendly. The place is clean and they have indoor seating. I ordered a breakfast burrito. They will make it anyway you want. The burrito was large and one of the best I've had. I will definitely return and try other items from the menu. read more

The food is spectacular there especially their torta Cubano. They have good customer service also and they accommodate call in orders and even will stay open a little bit longer so you can go pick up your order. read more

I have to review again because they never fail to amaze me. Ordered a large quantity of burritos again for the company and again, everyone went crazy. Thank you to Luis and the team for fulfilling such a large order in a short amount of time. Good quality food and great service.....what else can we ask for? read more

I love me some Mexican food but when it came to Tortas I never found one that I truly enjoyed so I didn't really eat them. OH MAN did this place change my torta game! The Tortas here are so damn delicious I got the Milanese de pollo torta and it was very flavorful, very filling. It wasn't soggy at all. I loved it! I also tried the pastor Torta that my husband got and another winner! This will be the only spot I get my Tortas at in town! Its inside the Chevron gas station off Mitchell Rd, so it's easy to not see. The owners are nice and check up on you. Very accommodating. I can definitely see this place getting bigger! Check it out. It won't disappoint! read more

Customer service is great and they have the best torta in town but try them all they are so good and good amount of food read more
