First time at Reyes market. Amazingly well stocked market, with great Mexican staples like moles, chiles, desserts, etc. I had one of their specials today, Chicharron and Salsa Verde. My first look at the dish, I knew I was in for a treat. The taste and authenticity better than I expected. I was blown away by the quality and artistry. I was also pleasantly surprised by the fresh-made corn tortillas. Unbelievable texture and taste. I ate the entire dish . Service was excellent. Ambiance is also good-no frills relaxing. Quite frankly, I judge a restaurant by the food quality, not necessarily service or ambience. I would rather have great food and crappy service, than the other way around. But this place delivers on all fronts. read more

I ordered two very simple items on the phone and when I got to the store it seemed like no one was doing anything and I did not get helped until I was standing at the front for about 5 minutes to which they told me they didn't have my food I had called 30 minutes prior to place my order so I am not sure why my food couldn't be ready when I was told on the phone it would be ready in 30 minutes. The audio quality was terrible on the phone as well making it hard to understand the person taking my order, if you are going to offer phone ordering make sure the phone actually works well. I am very disappointed in this service and I didn't even get to try the food, probably for the best. 0 out of 5 stars read more

Honestly the market place is pretty nice, but the food is not impressive. the service is nice, although the boba isnt.

BEST grilled shrimp taco EVER! Yummy sauce and absolutely loaded with big juicy, sweet and tasty shrimp. I ordered two but I was stuffed after just one. Also, the service was very friendly and warm. Thank you Reyes market! read more

The photos don't do this place justice! Super clean & cute little patio to sit. Got the chicken burrito and hubby got California burrito with cookies & cream shake. All of it delicious & fresh, not greasy AT ALL. Burritos are massive. Friendly service & ready quick. Perfect stop up the 101! read more

It's a Mexican market with a kitchen in the back that serves amazing food. We tried the breakfast burritos, birria quesadillas, green chilaquiles, and albondigas. Everything was absolutely delicious! The owner was super friendly and helpful, and the menu has so many great options that it was honestly hard to decide what to get. The market itself is also really fun to browse. They have a ton of items and snacks to choose from. We'll definitely be back again and again. So happy to support a local small business like this one! read more

We always make a stop here when driving through the area for some fish and shrimp tacos! The flavors are amazing! They do a double tortilla and fill it up with shrimp or fish! The cabbage and pico de gallo with crema (?) are so delicious. I love adding their green salsa for heat and flavor. They are so filling and so delirious. The service is good! You walk up and order and you sit down and they bring you the food or call you up if it's to go. It's small seating and they're usually busy. It's a casual sit down spot in a market. Definitely worth checking out! read more

I called in an order and they said the chicken is chopped, it was tamale chicken instead. Didn't like that they lied to sell a burrito. Not eating here ever again read more

I stopped here for a breakfast burrito and ordered the chorizo burrito, it was a decent size and pretty good. Just potatoes, cheese and chorizo but was in the mood for chorizo and I'd say they made it well. What I liked most was their salsa, the orange one. Not the darker red or green one but the orange colored one, was excellent! Loved it. Cool little Mexican market. I'd definitely stop by again. I know the photos that I took aren't that great but thought I'd share anyway. read more

Sparkling clean market with hot food to go and patio seating (dog friendly). The service was friendly, and the food was good, but it was pricey for a walk up. 2 asada tacos, no sides, $12.50 and $3.60 for a bottle of Coke. read more

GREAT FOOD! Friendly service. I'm going again tomorrow. Best salsa! Best chips! Great rice!

This is a great spot to grab some quality takeout. The pozole is one of the best I've ever hard-flavorful and quality. I've had the taquitos and burritos that are great too, but the pozole stands out. Service is friendly and quick. read more

Best food, homemade and delicious! Love the Ma and Pop style dining. A hidden gem and must go to whenever we are visiting Carpinteria!

Great food - good value - best Carne Asada burrito in town - homade Guacamole w/warm chips-

My wife and I were in Carpinteria and we saw this Mexican grocery that had also served food, we decided to try it out. You enter and you see big pots cooking over open flames and people in the back feverishly creating food for what seemed like locals after getting off work and getting some grub and selecting a beer from the cooler. I ordered the al pastor tacos to go from the super nice guy running the register, my only complaint is that it took a little longer than I anticipated, but the wait was worth it. I got two cups for the salsa bar and I got my order and walked it home for about the 1/2 mile walk. The picture isn't the best, because my bag tilted a little on the way, but you can see how much meat they give you, they definitely don't skimp. The meat is seared and spiced perfectly and the tortillas were perfect. I zapped it in the microwave for 30 seconds, just to make sure it didn't cool down on the walk home in this lovely little beach town. Both of the salsas were tasty, but I liked the red one a little more. I had an IPA to go with them and they were a perfect two taco dinner. Check these guys out! read more

We love the "Caldo de Res" big portion and yummy food Authentic Mexican food. I don't have more to say read more

The marketplace is a fun place to windowshop while waiting for your food. You need to be able to read Spanish to read the menu, but they do have an English version on their website. Friendly people, and the food is cheaper than a fast food joint. The double burger is delicious, messy, and too big to finish. The fries are frozen but perfectly cooked. Tacos are huge, tasty, and made with fresh ingredients. My fiance thinks that their chicken tacos are better than most of the "gourmet" places in the area. read more

Nicest people on the planet. Just plain happy to be here. And happy to serve you when you come in. I always get the chicken mole. Even if I'm getting something else, I can't pass up the Mole. It's my measure for a Mexican restaurant. If the Mole is good... you're in the right place. You also gotta try the abondegas soup. Yum. And takes you right to the heart of Mexico. Super authentic. There is a bad review on here about it, but the person just didn't know what they were ordering. It's the real thing. There are always fresh ripe avocados on the counter for sale. It just doesn't get any more authentic than this. If this doesn't meet your expectations, you're just not looking for Mexican food. Go to Taco Bell. read more

I had a chili relleno. I think it was the best chili relleno I ever had! Very light and fresh. The tortillas were delicious also! Friendly helpful staff. We enjoyed sitting outside. Casual and pleasant. read more

Have been stopping by this place driving down the 101 for over 2 decades. Used to be a great place to get your moneys worth of authentic food. The prices have increased, far exceeded the food experience for not being a sit down restaurant. Was charged $12 for 2 pork tacos. No sides. Just 2 tacos with meat onions and cilantro. To make matters worse they skimped on the salsa bar with only handing over 2 tiny to go cups. Asked if I could get more salsa please. they gave me 1 more cup. This will be my last visit! Such a shame to see this place get so priced out. read more

My husband and i love this place so much. We live in oxnard and gladly drive over for the food! My go to items every time is the albondigas soup and the nachos!! the soup is so hearty and the meatballs have the best texture! Along with the house made tortillas and a load of lemon. It is to die for. The nachos are hard to find anywhere else. The cheese is similar to nacho cheese you get at the movie theatres, which i love, but an elevated version! So glad this place has been able to stay open. Please support this great carpenteria location! read more

I was impressed when I walked in. Never imagined that small little market being so clean and organized. And customer service was in pointI've lived here over a year and let me tell you I've been missing out! My green enchiladas were delicious rice n beans very authentic Definitely going back for more read more

Reyes Market is a gem. It's oh so good here. Except. Be prepared to decipher their menu because it's written entirely in Spanish. For those of you who are anxiety drive, I suggest you look over their menu in English before you step food into their store. Wait staff is super patient and bilingual. I ordered three carne asada tacos. The meat was crispy and tender with a little bit of char. Small appetite? I suggest you ordering 1-2 because the portions are hefty. Overall, super authentic Mexican joint in the most unlikely place. read more

It definitely could've been better. Our bill was over $40 for a beef burrito, a combination (w/beans and rice) cheese enchilada and a boba drink, which would all be fine if it was good. But the food was very dry. Like it sat in the oven or under the warming light for too long. Even the rice and beans were dry. The flavor was good, that is, not salty but being that it was so dry, it didn't taste so great. Every bite had to be accompanied with a sip of water. Service was decent. Outdoor seating option is nice. In store is low key minimal basic stock. But the food is what will make or break it for us and, sadly, it didn't make it for us. I wish them well, of course, and hope they will do better. read more

Do not recommend this place. Tried a few times and each something is either short, missing, or drenched in a sauce. $14 for one piece of meat and a terrible sandwich. Have not had a good experience here. read more

Best authentic Mexican Food in Santa Barbara! Chile Relleno Sopa de Chile Relleno Burritos Chile Verde Burrito de Desayuno All the Sopas / Caldos All the Plates All the specials The salsa de Chile Manzano is so delicious and uncommon at other establishments. The perfect touch of garlic in that salsa sets it over the top, subtle, savory, and a bit spicy. Carp gets cranky every day they are closed. read more

I come to Carpinteria about twice a year and just love this little beach town and I was lucky to find another great place in Carpinteria. Homemade corn tortillas, very tasty good quality meat, topped with onions, cilantro, and great hot salsas make up perfect tacos at Reyes Market. They do have a good size menu but only tried the tacos (carnitas and chicken) and my husband got chilequiles with eggs which were good too. Glad I went here before heading home. They have good amount of seating outdoors and few indoors as well. Good customer service. read more

I was so disappointed! After reading all the yelp reviews I was excited to try. Our burritos were mostly rice, no cilantro or onions, plenty of beans, minimal meat. This made for a bland and dry burrito. We paid 40.00 for two burritos, a medium size bag of tortilla chips, one small avocado and a soda. Not worth the hype! read more

This place!!! Let me just say, It's a must if you ever are in the area of Carpintería. Food made fresh on the spot. I encourage you to get the chiles rellenos with caldo. The service is a+++ it's such a homey vibe. Not sure if it's family owned but everyone is so nice and friendly. I drive an hour and a half just to come here ! read more
