once again, Chico is home to another amazing taco truck -- although this one is a window attached to a liquor store! the tacos are on point and so are there burritos; my brother loves their plain cheese quesadillas -- they have a crispy cheese crunch on the outside... haven't tried their chimichangas, but that is next on my list... ca$h only, but all the best ones are; and they are very fast and friendly! and when you say you want something "spicy" it's just right, won't ruin anything or kill your taste buds read more

Good lawd! That hit the spot. Just walk up to the window and place your order. The asada tacos will satisfy your cravings! No frills, just food and a few benches. Drinks are next door at the c-store. read more

Tacos El Limon - Mexican Near Me - Chico, California

Business is scamming its own customers. Food wasn't even good, for one. Also, they do not accept card, only cash. The worker at the hole in the wall restaurant will tell you to buy something at the liquor store and get cash back. They charge you money to get cash back, so add $2 to your meal and then also buying an overpriced drink. The meal itself was mediocre at best, I have no clue how this is top rated. You're better off spending an extra $3 at a legitimate restaurant to get 2x the size of burrito, that's much better tasting. I wouldn't be surprised if the few reviews on this place are fake. Don't get fooled like I did! read more

Has been my go to, love their Carnitas. But I haven't been going as much since they raised their prices. Street tacos are delicious but 2.50 is a bit too high read more

Hands down my favorite taco shop in Chico. I love their chicken tostadas, so good! Very sweet people as well.

Sweet workers, flavorful food, and amazing prices... what more could you want? Tacos el limon is the most flavorful Mexican food I've had out in Chico. It is a small business, so make sure to check their facebook since they close for family events before you pull up and see the sign. SAD! I only get cash out for you, tacos el limon - it's worth it. Always! read more

This place was super hyped up but it was just ok. Would definitely go again. Overall nice side burrito for 10 bucks. Rice was good. Meat was ok. What was super tasty was the torta..I would get that again for sure. I really wanted to try the Chile rejelno but they were all out for the day. Hours can be kind of funky so check before going. Cash only but ATM in the store. read more

I stopped here on 11/7 around 2pm. I have always heard people rave about this Taco spot but I had to see for myself! I just ordered 3 Chicken Tacos (Mild) & 3 Asada Tacos (Mild). The woman was polite and I sat down and waited for my food. I brought it home and man it did not disappoint. They had totally affordae prices and I want to go back soon to try different things on the menu. Thank you guys for a very tasty lunch! read more

The burritos here are very tasty. Unfortunately they have reduced the size and increased the price. You kinda need to pick one or the other. I spent $20 tonight on 2 burritos the size of Taco Bell burritos. If you want to compete with food trucks you need to pick a lane. I hope this business makes a better decision. I want to support them. read more

The tortas were incredibly delicious. Made just the way my mom would make them. It's very Authentic and made with super fresh ingredients. The portions are abundant and almost over flowing especially for the price. Customer service was top notch. Was greeted promptly and served in a timely manner. So far, this is the best torta I have tasted by a million miles. I just wish they would stay open late night so I can have one right before I go to bed and fall into deep sleep. read more

Great food great service every time. My entire family loves this place California burrito was great. You have avocado in it also. Nacho fries are awesome! read more

On of the best hole in the wall taco spots in Chico! The carne asada is very flavorful and doesn't taste boiled like other places.

I have catered from Tacos El Limon in the past but this weekend I did a larger order and had it delivered for a birthday party I was throwing. The ordering process was smooth and they even delivered for me so I didn't have to worry about it on the day of. The food was absolutely amazing and everyone was talking about it at the party. Thank you and we will definitely be ordering again! read more

Amazing food that's just as good IF NOT BETTER THEN the local taco trucks, at the best prices. I personally visited over 5-7 taco trucks and similar establishments inn the same type of cuisines, nowhere has compared when it comes to price and quality of food. I was a year long customer that moved to sac and after 9 months away I'm sad to come home and see this local "hole in the wall" restaurant that was beloved by my generation with a sign for "temporarily closed" - The Whole Chico Skid Team read more

People are nice, and a little place connected to a small market. Reviews were positive and since we already tried several, one more made its appeal. Food: Sope Carnitas, $3. She liked it, but I noticed she has a sweet spot for Sopes in general 4 Stars. Tacos, Carne Asada and Chicken, $1.70 each. She liked the chicken and passed on the carne asada. Both with cilantro, onions, salsa. Small size and carne asada diced small was okey. 3.5 Stars. Enchiladas (3) rice and beans, $10. These were more like something else, just not in the game. Asked for Pastor, Carne Asada, and Carnitas. Made no difference as they failed to impress. Rice, beans, acceptable small amounts. Lukewarm, plain average. Enchiladas? Not really. 2 Stars. Salsa a little dull, edible. 2.5 Stars. Lady at the front was nice and generous with a winning personality. The traffic of clientele would say low at around 5:45 PM. Total $17. Wish them good business, as they surely deserve it. 3.5 Stars. read more

OMG! I just got two amazing burritos from there. My dad couldn't eat a whole one. He saved some. He said he was so full from the burrito. 2 big burrito for way under $20.00 I believe you get back what you put out. And, yes! I left a nice tip. And, the friendly cashier helped me to decide on flavors. The waiting area had customers waiting. And, cars in the parking lot. read more

First time here for me and I don't know why. The service was quick and the food was good with reasonable prices. I had the regular burrito with cheese added with beef. My wife had the Supreme burrito with Carne asada. We both got a regular taco with Carne Asada. Every thing had a nice flavor. We started out with mild salsa but will try the next step up on our next visit. I like it give it a try. read more

Best Mexican food in Chico in quality and price hands down! Competition is fierce. This place is not only consistent, but now are adding more menu items as they grow. I tried the carnitas chimichanga for the first time and it was better and cheaper than anywhere in town. Tortas, tostadas, asada fries, and now CHURROS! I hear they might be doing fresh tortillas to order soon. The al pastor and carnitas are my favorite, but others in my family go for the carne asada and chicken. They have breakfast burritos too! Go and try for yourself. read more

fantastic place! everything on the menu is super affordable and so yummy! it is a literal hole in the wall, but all my foodies know that that's the best type of food. it is a cash only window, so you're able to go next door to the convenience store to buy a little drink and get cash back. i ordered the california burrito and it has fries inside of it. thought it was a little strange, but a friend recommended it to me and it did not disappoint. hopefully i'll be back before i leave chico! read more

Fantastic carnitas tacos! Hole in the wall place with fantastic food. Quick and easy. Tostadas are great as well.

Best Mexican window in town. I come here very day to eat and never have missed a day, I got to start my morning right or lunch right with a breakfast burrito or a asada quesadilla. read more

Best Nachos for the best price! So friendly and always hits the spot!

My favorite burrito in town hands down. Amazing prices and just the nicest people. The burritos are a nice size and the flavors are the best in town in my opinion. Most of the time is hard to chose what to get though because even the tacos, tostadas, and nachos are to die for. Cash only! read more

Stopped here for a taco after the gym. Super delicious, only $1! I prefer this place to the taco truck next to them and they stay open later. I'm excited to try more menu items in the future. read more

Definitely one of the best "taco truck" type establishments. The prices are good and the food is even better. I've tried almost everything on the menu and it's all great. The pastor is one of the best in town. I would definitely reccomend coming here. read more

okay I got to be honest I was reluctant to write this review because this is one of those places that you try to keep quiet about for a little while cuz you know they are too good to be true! living in the upper Bidwell Park area has its many benefits but one of its drawbacks is the lack of restaurants. and the good ones over here are so busy you have to wait long time to get your food. So now I'll tell you about the food. My Carnitas street taco was perfect! The little tostada had the freshest veggies ever and OMG their churros are The real yummy churros you get in Mexico that get gooey on the inside and crunchy on the outside! Dinner and dessert for $6. That's why I'm afraid to tell you about it now of course this is my first trip there, so I had to ask the other people picking up their food their opinions and it was a unanimous YES read more

These guys always do a great job. I really like the Cali Burrito, the French fries they use are freshly fried and not just sitting around in bins so they're really crispy when you bite into it. The only thing I think they could do better is the size of the lime wedges. Definitely come here! read more

Nom, Nom, Nom!! This place has the BEST Chili relleno burritos, and tacos, and scopes, and...............well, you get it, everything is really yummy and authentic, so really, go get it........now!!, you will not be disappointed in the taste or the staff, who are all so nice! read more

This is my favorite place to eat in town, i have to go once a week. The Carne Asada fries are to die for. We stan.

After having a burrito from El Limon, everything else in the area seems bland. Amazing burritos. It's like McDonalds vs a backyard bbq burger. read more
