    Birria Ramen is full of meat & noodles. The cilantro, onion, and lime were on the side. The temperature was piping hot!
    Ursula O.

    Wait... Taco Exxpress has been here for how long and I am finally trying a piece of Heaven? What's wrong with me? Located in Rocklin on Granite & Rocklin Drive, Taco Express stands out with its brought colors. The send most notable thing was the drive-thru. As you pull in and go through the parking lot, closest to the corner is the beginning of the drive-thru. There is a menu with many many options. Since it was the weekend, menudo and pozole are available. I couldn't tell if there was seating inside but there is definitely seating outside! Jenita was craving a taco salad with carnitas. I didn't see it on the menu (it could've been there, I was rushing through and my eyes may not have caught it). They put refried beans in it as she wanted, along with sour cream, guacamole, and melted cheese in a crispy flour tortilla. She also got a jamica augua fresca. I decided to go with the birria ramen. Lovely consummé, filled with ramen noodles and lots of beef. You can't rush delicious food, so there was a little bit of a wait. The man at the window was polite and worked fast! Great customer service! When we got back to Jenita's, I set her up with her taco salad. I sat next to her and we ate out of our Styrofoam containers. By the time we got back, set her up, and took my pictures, about 20 minutes had gone by since we got our food and my birria ramen was still too hot too eat, but that was a great thing! They serve piping hot food!!! Jenita said her taco salad with carnitas was delicious. My birria ramen was so good! So good, that I wanted to go back and get more food, but I'm going to be patient and look forward to my next visit!

    Ive been a patron of this location for about 3 years. Ive only had one other issue besides the one that I am writing about today, and that was about a year ago I ordered grilled chicken on my food and it was raw. But THIS..this experience is the thing that will prevent me from ever visiting this location or potentially any location again. I ordered Loaded fries with grilled chicken and when I turned the light on and saw my food, the fries were literally grey! It was dreadful. Not only did the few bites I ate cause me to throw up continuously that night, I was sick for days afterwards and had to go to the ER to get IV fluids and anti nausea meds. Experiences like this are why I have a strict "no take-out in the dark" policy because imagine if I kept eating before turning the light on . I literally could have died. Potatoes leak a poison called solanine that is so toxic it will kill you in large quantities. Something has gone very wrong at this place so I won't ever be back.

    No extra cheese no extra tomato no soda I had to eat my lunch with no drink. I should've checked. It's my fault, ‍

    It never fails every time I go to this place the communication is terrible. I guess I always ask for extra cheese and tomatoes. This time I asked for Coke and didn't get it. Also, I believe I paid for it all I didn't get a receipt. I guess it's all my fault in having faith that it'll be done right this time darn it.

    Chorizo and bacon breakfast burrito
    Eric M.

    So much better than El Forestero. This had a perfect ratio of egg, potato, and meat (unlike el forestero which was huge, but was way too potato-heavy). Good flavor, salsa was good, service at the drive thru was friendly. Showed up right when they opened and they had my burrito ready super fast. Will be back for sure!

    We grabbed dinner at Taco Express tonight and it was amazing. The food was delicious and the service was great! We tried street tacos, a super burrito, a fat burrito, quesaburria, rice, beans and churros.

    TORTA is Good!

    This place is a good stop right off the freeway. If I'm ever in the area again, I will swing by, they lose a star because they dont have any healty options like a salad but that's okay. Im cool with that. The place has a restaurant vibe but a fast food experience. The service was good and I would recommend going there if you are near.

    Carne Asada Fries
    Corinne P.

    I was in the area, so wanted to give another location a chance. Compared to the Power Inn location, drive through staff were much nicer & food came out very quick. 10/10 - Bean & Cheese Burrito: I had a hankering for a basic burrito & this one was delicious! The burrito was pretty big & full of yummy filling. While still pricey, this one was worth it. 5/10 - Carne Asada Fries: the fries didn't seem fresh & very soggy; carne asada lacked flavor. Pretty disappointed by these.

    Don't let this place fool you since it has a drive through! Excellent food especially coming from a Mexican food snob like me! Beans were tasty and rice had excellent flavor! Prices were extremely reasonable and don't forget to top it off with the churro con crema
