My first time at this location and my second time overall having roll em up. I like this place and I'm willing to give it a 3rd shot before I really call it quits. I love that you can choose the option for corn or flower tortillas. Flour all the way for sure!! The biggest mistake I made was putting all the sauce on top of the Taquitos and it made it soggy - which is my an ick of mine. The rice is ok, I can deal without it. Corn is always a good idea and the queso is a must !! I think shredded chicken and shredded beef is what they specialize in. Potato and ground beef are ok - wouldn't get those again. The place is clean and there are lots of seating options. I think all sauces that they put on the taquitos need to be on the side so it stays crispy out the fryer. Customer service is on point, they're super friendly. read more

Roll Em Up Taquitos - Side of RICE - Mexican Near Me - Palm Desert, California

I stopped by Roll Em Up Taquitos while in town for a cheerleading camp, and I'm so glad I did. The food was honestly really good. The taquitos are made fresh to order, and you can tell. I got half shredded beef and half chicken, and both were crispy, loaded with salsa, crema, and cheese -- I had to use a fork just to get a bite, and it was worth it. The beans were my favorite surprise. They were so good that I found myself dipping the taquitos in them just to get every flavor in one bite. The rice was solid too. The two young ladies working were super nice and helped me out since it was my first time there. It's next to some bigger, well-known spots, but I'd say it's definitely worth checking out. I'll be coming back for sure. read more

Tasty Taquitos! Tried these for the first time. I had the two roll combo with rice and corn. One was ground beef and the other was shredded beef, both good. The rice was well seasoned and the corn was buttery delicious. Ibethsethe cashier that took my order was not only friendly but also helpful, letting me sample the beans, rice and corn so I would know what.to order. The ambiance was nice, clean and fun. Loved the giant Skeleton Head over the soda machine. Also, loved the Pineapple Cream Soda, different and refreshing, like a Cactus Cooler. read more

This place is cool! There's 2 cashiers, you order up front and sit.. The taquitos are lightly fried and they have different meats.. We ordered the 3 pack combo, i ordered corn & my hubby flour.. I had beef, chicken & cheese. & so did he; I definitely liked the corn better, had a slight crunch, the flour was too soft; Cheese & chicken were my favorite; also instead of rice, I got beans & elote fully loaded in a cup; that was so good; beans were decent... my husband said rice wasn't bad.. read more

The last couple times we've come in, the taquitos have been mostly soggy. This time, I think I figured out what is contributing to the limp taquitos. Literally, they should not be bending toward the ground when you pick them up to take a bite. They haven't been this way in the past, just the last two times we've come in and it's saddening because I don't know that I'll come back again unless they fix this. Well, I could try one more time with only cheese on top the taquitos and other sauces strictly on the side. That'll cost the owner more money for the condiment cup that will be used for it. If that is what must happen in order for me to have a crispy taquito, then so be it. What I found out is that it looks like they are possibly watering down their sauces that go on top of the taquitos thus soaking into the tortilla and making what was once crispy, now soggy. I took a picture of how runny the sauces look now. Dear owner, if you're allowing this, it's not producing a good outcome, it's actually making your good product become inferior. Please stop allowing the sauces to be watered down or overly watery. This past time seemed a little weird. There were only two workers there & they who mostly stayed in the back. There was a sign on the front door that said to use the other door... And there was trashcan and other things that prevented use of the main door... I saw several people walk up to the door and then walk away... The owner needs to know that this is happening and he/she is losing money because someone has decided to not let the front door be used and put a makeshift handwritten sign saying to "use the other door" on the side. It wasn't windy so I don't understand why that door is not used... This isn't the first time they have blocked that door so I think maybe there's either a reason for it or maybe the employees don't wanna have to deal with a lot of traffic or the customers of their next door eatery mistakenly coming into Rollem Up Taquito and then leaving for their intended eatery. That's one way to reduce the traffic and thus profitability for the owner. Dear Owner, do you know this is happening? I will try one more time to test my theory. If that's it, then I'll probably still come but have to use more resources to hold the watery sauces on the side so that it doesn't soggy up a perfectly crisp taquito. If that doesn't work and the taquitos still come out, soggy, I'll lower the rating and won't return. read more

Taquitos, rice, beans and a drink. Food was amazingly delicious, the beans stood out, never had them this good but like I said before the food was on point! I gave them a four, the drink was totally flat and I ordered a regular and diet drink it wasn't marked, causing me to sip someone else's soda, my son has severe gluten allergy and the boxes weren't marked. I called this place several times, I had questions before I placed my order with Uber eats and I could not get in contact with anyone, I took a chance and went ahead and ordered, and it worked out. 7/10 read more

It's as good as it gets for what it is! A new cute rolled toco place with sides and sauces. We loved all the taquitos along with the excellent house made beans. The churro donuts were tasty too. We will definitely be back again and again. It's on Monterey next to the 10 freeway. read more

Hot Food Feelin' HOT, HOT, HOT! We planned to stop in for a quick bite and easily ordered in advance on the ROLL-EM-UP app. The Team Members were very friendly as well as helpful and the food was promptly available upon arrival. Your choice of relaxed casual indoor or outdoor seating. The Loaded Potato was so HUGE it was dinner tonight and will be lunch tomorrow. Then there's the amazing OG Street Corn with lotsa butter which I hadn't had since back in the day maybe 40 years ago when a drive to TJ was a fun day trip. "Corn or Flour Taquitos?" "Well yes both, please." Top it off later with a Churro Donut covered in cinnamon, powdered sugar and caramel. Light as air yet melt in your mouth... Whether you eat meat or don't...there's meat or potatoes plus a whole lot more. This ROLL-EM-UP in Palm Desert offers a very new and different tasty take on fast food. Go for it! read more

Unfortunately my first time trying this chain was in another city and the experience was muuuch better We came during opening week I believe ?? Let's jump right in and start with the positives :) Here's what I liked: *The woman at the cash register had a bright smile and seemed to be in a good mood, so that's always a plus *Inside is vibrant *They have nachos! (They weren't available just yet but yea lol) *Music was nice *The fresh tea soo yummy! Here's what I didn't like: *My food - like none of it.. *the taquitos were dry and over cooked my rice was mushy *The churro donuts crumbled and fell apart when I tried to pick them up :( *The corn we ordered was given to us at the end of the meal as it was a very popular side and it was the one with Hot Cheetos covering it, but we didn't have tajin or butter on them like we asked anddd the Cheeto part was stale and just a no. My hope is dear reader, that when you go you have a great experience. I was super excited they would be closer to where I lived since my first experience was so great, unfortunately we won't be back ;( Meh 3/10 read more

Roll Em Up Taquitos - Mexican Near Me - Palm Desert, California

First time there ordered online. Order was ready when I got there. Service was friendly.

This is based on a take-out order, fulfilled through GrubHub. I ordered the 5 pack combo. I asked for beans and rice as the sides. I asked for all corn taquitos with potato, ground beef, chicken, shredded beef, and cheese. I went ahead and got cheese on them. Now, if I had paid attention better to the options, I probably would have had them put some salsa/sauce on top, with the cheese. But, I didn't, so I ate them plain. That allowed me to really get a taste for the fillings. The potato and cheese ones blew me away. Even as simple as those fillings are, they really shined. The shredded beef was also delicious. I wasn't impressed by the chicken or ground beef. To be honest I couldn't really tell them apart. The rice was tomato-forward, which I like. If I'm going to get a flavored pilaf-type rice, I want it to be highly flavored. This rice was highly flavored. Anyone who knows me knows that I judge a whole enterprise on their beans. Roll Em Up has some fantastic beans. For a fast food place, I was stunned at the flavor that they were able to get into those beans! There are pieces of meat and some peppers in there that really give flavor, but also texture. Now that I know the beans are good, I'll just order double beans next time. Knowing where this location is, I probably won't go there because it is in an area that isn't easy to access, but the delivery option will work. The taquitos withstood the ride to my house. They were still crispy and had a good corn flavor. read more

Yeah not the best place, couldn't even get lettuce on them because they didn't know how to charge me for a hand full of lettuce.. read more

Roll Em Up Taquitos - lol - Mexican Near Me - Palm Desert, California

One star for existence (like everything on Yelp). One star for the space: attractive and much cleaner than the average fast food venue. I'm not sure what reggae has to do with taquitos, but I went to college, so it's cool. One star for service: pleasant, quick, and unobtrusive. One star for the food: in short, excellent. Come for the taquitos; stay for the rice and beans; they put Popeye's version in the shade by far. And finally, no star for pricing. With compulsory tip, ‍ four taquitos (which are very tasty) the aforementioned R&B, and a drink, the tab was just shy of $18. That seems like a lot, when for that money, you get half a delicious chicken at Popeye's, a first rate biscuit, and a side. All said and done, I hope this place thrives, but would appreciate a wee more value for the hard-earned buck. read more

Was excited to try this restaurant and unfortunately was disappointed. For sure they do not have the full menu as shown online at this location. A lot of things were out including corn taquitos, they only had flautas available which is disappointing since it's called "roll 'em up taquitos " The beans were the best thing from my meal. read more

The service was fast! Super clean and lots of room. The food was delicious! I wish we had one closer to home were from Merced but have nothing this good! Definitely recommend!!!! read more

Sooooo....I was super excited to try this place. I had been anticipating its opening as I read an article somewhere about them. So I placed an online order to grab before work. I ordered the two pack of taquitos (1flour, 1 corn) with my guac and sour cream on top, along with rice and beans. I was so disappointed. My rice and beans were only filled 1/2 way. My taquitos look like they flew off my seat after I slammed on the brakes. Presentation was definitely not to be desired. Food was mediocre. The beans were pretty good, but not good enough to draw me back. The girl up front definitely needs a lesson on customer service. read more

First time trying this place. Taquitos rice and beans were delicious. A good place for lunch. However, nobody is cleaning tables. A couple tables had trash and stuff on them. A worker took her break sitting next to the dirty tables. Oh yeah, and the music is very loud 75-80 decibles read more

This is a great new place to grab a delicious meal! It's near Chick-fil-A across from Sam's Club. We ordered a combination of flour and corn taquitos... Which were all delicious! The old-school Mexican style corn was incredible as well. The place inside is really cool... The decor is very hip and fun. Love the slogan, "peace, love, and taquitos". The staff was extremely friendly and helpful since this was our first time in & the menu was totally new to us. We will definitely be going back and highly recommend !!! read more

I have rewards and have been trying to use them for about a month now. The app is not working but when I use my computer it says the online ordering is not available at this time. This has been this way for two weeks. I go into the store to order and am told that I cannot use my rewards unless I order it on the app but the app does not allow you to order. NO MORE ROLL EM UP TAQUITOS for me!!! read more

First time, been wanting to try for a long time. Ala carte cheese and ground beef taquitos were really good, but I preferred the cheese. I wasn't asked about corn vs flour tortillas and I wouldn't have thought about it, except for my receipt said corn. The funny part is that my taquitos came out made with flour tortillas. At any rate they were delicious. The chips and Queso were also really good. The Mexican corn was the only loser. Very bland and mushy and the "butter" had a chemical taste to me. The churro donut was good, but the packaging was wrong, the caramel drizzle stuck to the paper. Bonus: the ice was the small, crunchy pellets, which I love. read more

Ok so I did a to go order and picked it up because I had really wanted to try this place but it was close to closing. The place was super clean and busy. The ordering process online was very easy.

Can't wait till we go here again! read more

We were looking forward to trying this place as a possible catering choice for an upcoming party. In short we won't be using them. We had two separate orders: I ordered 2 beef and 1 chicken Taquito and 1 rice order. I got 1 beef and 1 chicken, and no rice. My bad for not checking the bag, but in my defense it was such a simple order. My friend ordered 1 of each taquito and rice. She got her taquitos, but no rice. Honestly as far as flavor they all tasted the same. The corn shells were fried perfectly. It's what is inside that is disappointing. The beef was more like mystery meat turned into puree. The chicken and potato taquitos tasted exactly the same. We were charged for the rice. As for value...it was cheap. So in summary: You get what you pay for. read more

I saw an add for the upcoming opening Roll Em' Up as I was excited to have a Taquito specific food place close by. I liked the menu and what they had to offer. Positive feedback: * Very clean * Staff is friendly and have great customer service. * Music choices are great. * Taquitos~ fresh & hot and perfectly crispy. (I recommend sauces on the side if you're picking it up to avoid soggy taquitos) Chicken, ground beed & potato were are all good) * Roll em' up sauce ~ both levels of sauces are delicious * Pineapple Cream Soda ~ absolutely delicious highly recommended. * Chips ~ Great ratio of crunch and thickness & not too salty. * Queso ~ taste was good. It was a white queso more of a thin consistency (heads up Menu shows a yellow queso but it was white queso) * Beans~ were pretty tasty, good flavor not over salted. Negative Feedback: * Rice~ flavorless, dry and had couscous/rice consistency. *Street corn cup~ horrible, watery and tasted like canned corn, it was bland and has no Tajin or butter really no good flavor. The cheetos seemed stale and had no crunch. * Orange Cream Slushee ~ terrible, it was not slush consistency it was a sort of a thick sugary slurry almost not really slushee consistency. * Churro Doughnut ~ ratio of finishing toppings to the donut were not balanced. It was more of a cake donut , crumbly, & dry and not really churro type consistency. Over all great ambiance, customer service. I really like the Taquitos. I would go back for Taquitos, Pineapple Cream Soda and chips but would not order the sides again. read more

The food was actually good. I enjoyed having the option of corn or flour tortillas (you can mix & match which is a plus) However, the service, not so much. My bf asked for limes or lemons and the girl working the counter just gave him a weird look and said no. Not, "sorry we don't" or something to sound sweet. I mean if you're going to sell "taquitos", "rolled tacos", street corn, rice & beans, they should have limes and/or lemons. On top of that there's NO salsas. All of which are Latin staples. However, there is a creamy chipotle/mayo tasting sauce and it's ok, but c'mon they're making Latin styled cuisine. They definitely should have red and/or green salsa. They also have chips and guacamole on the menu, so again it would be amazing to have salsas & citrus. They have tajin to put on the corn but that was it. The reggae vibe is cool. The music is pretty loud so if you're not comfortable with that, then I'd suggest taking the food to go. read more

Food was awful. I do not expect much from fast food but I'd like it to at least be edible. Soooo disgusting. Sauces were horrible, and I can't even begin with the refried beans or rice. I literally spit it back out. Yuck! read more

The taquitos were okay, deep fried. Sauce was good, but very chintzy with the amount. The Spanish rice was good, they ran out of the beans, so they subbed another rice. How can you run out of beans??? For $12 it seemed a little pricey, but I wanted to try it. Lemonaid drink was good. If you don't like Reggae music or Loud music, this might not be the place to eat for you...I was okay with it...but it could be a little lower. Good luck! read more
