Regular carne asada burrito + grilled shrimp
Monica M.

Wow..can I just say, wow? WOW! First time here and got a surf and turf burrito. Not on the menu but requested to add shrimp, which they gladly did! After finally having to accept that the taco truck in the new Construction area was all we had for decent Mex food, I am sooooo glad we found our spot! Great selection of salsas, sides and they even have the grilled onions and jalapeños. My elementary ages kids loved it too and confirmed as well. They said it was bussin'...which I found out means 'da bomb' for us millennials lol

Carne asada quesadilla (half) I ate the other half too fast lol

I barely finished my food and I'm still sitting in the restaurant writing this review. We ordered a burrito bowl, quesadilla, and supreme burrito. They all were very good but the quesadilla was my favorite!!!! I haven't had a quesadilla with so much flavor before. I did have to say no salsa and pico on it because I don't really like spicy food but it was still super flavorful. My burrito had salsa and pico in it so it was too spicy for me but my husband loved it. I would definitely come here again!! The place is clean with a really nice vibe also. The girl that took our order was very kind and helpful with answering questions too.

I'm a big fan of this restaurant/taqueria. It's clean, huge space for seating, a nice open kitchen with friendly employees, etc. they also have a salsa bar with different types of salsas and toppings. I came with my family today and we had a great time. I enjoyed their Birria ramen which had loads of meat and consume. The flavors are incredible with the broth mixed with the consume. The shredded beef is tender but I will say, I thought they added way too much birria meat and it overshadowed the ramen noodles. They might need to lessen the meat. The burrito is huge and will definitely stuff you up. I thought the rice and beans needed more salt because one side of the burrito was bland. I ordered four tacos: 2 tripas (extra crispy) and Al Pastor. The tacos are delicious and full of meat and seasoning. I love that they add a small slice of sweet pineapple on top of the al pastor. I thought their carne asada is a bit too saucy for my liking. Usually, I love carne asada when it's more on the steak-type texture rather than being soaked in sauce and wet. Either way, their tacos are fire. I thoroughly enjoyed their Tortas too! I had a carne asada torta and it tasted phenomenal; I can stand the carne asada in this sandwich rather than a taco or burrito. The bread is fresh and crisp with melted white cheese. I would come back for this. Prices here are excellent with $2.50 a taco, supreme burritos for $11.00. And more! I'd like to thank my bro in law and sister for telling us about Tacos Chapala. I will definitely come back!

Tacos are really good! Tried an assortment of tacos ranging from carne asada, al pastor, cabesa and tripas and they were all seasoned well. They have a salsa bar that you can pile on to your plate. The have different sauces and veggies to top of your tacos. Service was quick, fast and friendly. Restaurant is clean and nice.

I order some asada fries and it's a little to mushy for my tasting looks good but fries were too soggy for my liking but keep in mind I had it to go, I'll probably stop in and dine in and update my review but try it for yourself , looking forward to try other items here, stay tuned.

We were driving through Manteca stopped by Tacos Chapala - wow it hit the spot. The quesa birria taco was delicious the consume on point! My husband had the Al pastor burrito and just as great. They have lots of salsas to choose from. Whether you're in the mood for tacos, burritos or combo plate you can't go wrong. The restaurant has a cozy vibe! Quick service you order and sit down. We will definitely be back when passing through.

Had an asada burrito and meat was tough and chewy. Meat quality for the asada here is absolutely terrible, was spitting most if not all of the "meat" back out. DISGUSTING

Horchata + Salsas
Hieu T.

Salsas are great. Personally like the green sauce. Tacos are delicious. Birria has a nice flavor. Not too heavy and great portions. Horchata is bomb. Location is easy to get to and pretty large.

My family lives near this taco spot and they recommended it to me. The way it works you order at the counter they give you a number. They call your number when your food is ready. In the meantime, you could go to the salsa bar and grab their delicious salsas . The hot sauces are definitely really good. The orange one is my favorite. I was looking for the little plastic containers to put your salsa in to my surprise, you have to ask for them in the front. Maybe it's a way to control people from getting more not sure.? Also it would be great to have napkins on the table since the tacos get pretty messy . The inside was clean and organized. The food was very delicious. My family and I really enjoyed our time here we ended up putting some tables together everyone was very accommodating and nice. The horchata was very delicious. Definitely a good spot to grab some quick tacos and other goodies.

chicken and asada enchilada and birria taco
April P.

This is by far the best Mexican food I've had in Manteca. I ordered two enchilada one chicken and one asada the green sauce recommended by the gentleman helping me, and it did not disappoint. I also ordered a birria taco, which was a solid 10/10. All of the salsas had excellent flavor as well. Although I don't live in the area, I would definitely make the drive back just to eat here again. The restaurant itself is charming, with thoughtful décor and a well-put-together atmosphere. I'm excited to return and try more items from the menu. The service is 10/10.

Pretty table decor with my large  Horchata!
Destry H.

Nice little spot in Manteca, with modern decor, and friendly staff working there. The one thing I can say. The grilled shrimp tacos were probably some of the best I've had in a while. I also ordered a plate of their asada fries. I normally dont eat a lot of fries and I probably won't again. And its not because I didn't like the asada fries,they were absolutely delicious. Because I slaughtered that plate, but my body just rejects it. But like I said earlier, I really loved the tacos and would definitely ordered them again and probably more than just two of them. So stand by, to stand by because I'll be in the area again soon...and I'm looking forward to more grilled shrimp tacos and something else on their abundantly delicious menu!

Absolutely love the food and service here! Number 1 go to Mexican spot for a good meal. The place is always clean, the salsa bar is always fresh and spicy. The cashiers are always super nice, considerate, and helpful! The torta supreme is super amazing and the meats are absolutely seasoned to perfection. I always recommend this place when I have friends driving through town.

Friendly service, good food though the cleanliness standards have slipped since last time I visited. Could have just need a hard Monday but either way deserves a 4 star rating to me

Paid for extra meat, got extra rice.

See all

On our visit they were only taking cash -luckily we had enough on us as the prices were very reasonable & portions huge! My hubby had the gigantic Chili relleno burrito with Carne asada & fresh veggies; i had the Huevos Mexicana with the very savory sauce on top that was not that spicy/perfect for my taste. I was pleasantly surprised with the homemade corn tortillas and homemade chips & salsa that came with our meals. Very clear that this place is frequented by a steady stream of regulars stopping by for take out, or sitting down for Menudo or Birria tacos. Highly recommend this place if you are hungry because of the large filling portions, quality & well prepared food at a small family run business. This location has several tables/indoor seating and was very clean/well maintained.

I ordered the three taco combo plate and you can mix and match the meats. I got all birria and it came with consome as well as rice and beans. The service was nice and quick. The tacos were very filling and the meat was juicy. The consome was really good as well. It did not have a lot of oil like other places. Overall I would for sure come back and try other things on their menu.

I read the reviews prior and they brought me here to see for myself …read more The service from walking in the door was prompt and very welcoming. I ordered a chicken torta which in my opinion is now gonna be a go to for me when I'm in Manteca. The chips and salsa were fresh and very good. This is a family friendly restaurant and the decor inside is very nice . If you'd like to have a drink with your meal they have a full bar set up and if I wasn't driving , a margarita would've been a perfect match with my torta ... Definitely a revisit by me will happen and I will pass this on to friends and family that will and are in the area.

The front counter lady said it would have to be an extra cost for a couple of slices of lemons or limes.....I asked her to run that be me again. She said it will coast extra for slices of limes or lemon. She said that Is their rule...it blew my mind That asked for limes for Mexican Food At charge . That was Greed and lacked any customer Satisfaction for 2 slices of lemon or lime. It is common practice that all Mexican Latino restaurants, taquerias, That serve Mexican food will Not charge for 2 slices of lemon or lime Cmon el Jardin you lost a good customer Over charging for lime slices...unbelievable It's the point of them just being greedy . Also on all Honesty el jardin manteca is priced way over the top for average Mexican food. !

At first I did not want Mexican food since I eat it all the time, but after walking into the indian spot close by and smelling it, we ran straight to Estrellas. My mother-in-law and I were going to buy food here while my husband and kids bought food elsewhere. They allowed them to still eat with us, which was nice. Unfortunately, their fryer was not working that day, so we couldnt get anything that had to be fried. We ended up both getting the Asada plate. We went to sit down and wait for our food, but not before we stopped at the salsa bar. We were off to a great start cause they had plenty of options, including pico de gallo, avocado salsa, cucumbers, radishes, and many more things. The location was extremely clean, with a lady coming by every 5-10 mins cleaning up anything people dropped or plates people were done with. The Asada plates came with side salad, rice, beans, and a grilled nopal and green onions. It was all absolutely delicious!! The salsas were so fresh and cut through the savory on the plate. It was extremely filling, and my mother-in-law ate the entire plate (she never does that, usually takes half home, so you know it was GOOD).
