Al pastor (red salsa), lengua, tripe (green salsa)
Julia L.

This place has been my go to taco spot. It is the best!! I am a die hard salsa verde girl because red salsa for me is more often a miss than a hit, but this place is so good even the red salsa is BOMB! the tacos are super juicy and somehow they get the tortilla to stay a little crispy, my favorite is the Al pastor. Since coming back home from LA I've really struggled to find food that hits the spot but I'm so glad I came across this place. You guys have truly fulfilled my street taco cravings.

a food truck

A no frills unsuspecting taco truck that blew all of us away! We had a friend come visit on his way back from Hawaii to New York so we took him on a little tour of the Bay Area and Sacramento. We were hungry so we hopped on Yelp and found Tacos El Sinaloense. We parked in the lot and went up to the order window. Since they had lengua, both my friend and I ordered it in a burrito and let me tell you, I have not had better lengua anywhere else before or since! The service was quick and we all savored our burritos and I made sure to bookmark this place for future visits!

Rain or shine, it's taco time!

Great little hidden Gem behind Young's Auto Center on Fruitridge. Been going here for over a decade and it never disappoints. They have taco's, burritos, quesadillas, with a variety of meats. The service is always friendly and very quick. The ambiance does definitely leave something to be desired, but it's a taco truck behind an oil change station, so eh. They take Apple Pay / Google pay, cards, or cash. Definitely check it out if in the area, but do keep your head on a swivel for homeless wandering by or other riff raff from the surrounding areas.

Carne Asada burrito

I had the Carne Asada burrito. Fantastic taste. Service was quick and helpful. It was nice to relax on the outdoor patio under the overhang. I will definitely come back again.

Located behind Young's Auto Center, this taco truck serves up great eats while you wait for your oil service. Highly recommend. Just wish the salsa was a bit spicier.

Asada spicy tacos

Drove 30 mins from Roseville to find a good asada taco truck. This place hit the spot. Love the onions and especially the delish asada. Love trucks that actually give you the asada instead of the fatty parts. With they were a little more spicy but other thane that. These are super tasty tacos. Would eat here again no doubt.

Who loves tacos?  My daughter!!
Howard B.

Love this place and highly recommend making this a regular stop for amazing tacos. My daughter and I were out taco tasting last week (trying out tacos at different trucks in town) and after having a carnitas taco at El Sinaloense, we both declared them to be unbelievably perfect and determined that trying any more tacos at other trucks could possibly be disappointing.

Carnitas, cabeza, pollo y adobada
Cainen G.

So good, the carnitas and cabeza were top notch and the salsa are good, especially liked the green. Will be coming here way more often, thanks for the delicious lunch today y'all!

Leslie O.

So good! Love coming here for the tacos. Literally the BEST. Carnitas 10000000/10! The tortillas are better than other places and salsa is great.

Sinaloa truck
Jaime P.

My boy stopped here on our way back from our long day after our studio session. There were a lot of cars so I figured it must be good. I already ate so I didn't buy any tacos last time but, I remembered this little spot and I decided to checked it out today. It's not fancy but good street tacos $1.50 each, Omg...watch your mouth, these are Sinaloa Tacos boy! Lol, I would have gave them 5 stars but they ran out of Asada, what?!!!

J N.

The carnita tacos are the BEST is south sac, hands down. The prices seems to increase overtime but worth every penny! I would choose this Taco truck over any Mexican restaurant lol ‍

Already 5 stars just based on the salsa bar- by far the most expansive and impressive array of…read moresalsas and mixed pickled veggies I've seen offered, all complementary! I had 3 street tacos, and I'd recommend the lengua and the shrimp. The lengua was succulent and plentiful. The shrimp had great flavor and some yummy char. Overall, I'll definitely be back to get Mexican food and use the amazing salsa bar!

I just ordered a carnitas burrito from Taqueria La Perla Tapatia, and it was honestly one of the…read moreworst burritos I've had in a long time. The burrito was below average in size, had meat covering less than half of it, and contained no sour cream. The portion and overall preparation were nowhere near what I would expect when paying for a carnitas burrito. But the most concerning part was the salsa. It had an extremely strong chemical taste and smell that reminded me of Fabuloso or mop/cleaning solution. It was so unpleasant that I genuinely questioned whether something had gone wrong with the preparation or whether the salsa had somehow come into contact with cleaning chemicals. I cannot say what caused it, but the taste was absolutely disgusting and raised a serious food-safety concern for me. This is why consistency and proper food-handling procedures matter. A restaurant can have a great meal one day and a terrible one the next, but customers shouldn't have to wonder whether something that tastes like cleaning chemicals is safe to eat. I hope management takes this seriously and looks into the preparation, storage, and handling of the salsa and other ingredients. If a product tastes or smells strongly enough like cleaning chemicals that a customer is questioning whether it may be contaminated, that is something that should be investigated--not dismissed. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I cannot recommend this burrito. Poor portion, poor execution, and a salsa that raised legitimate food-safety concerns. Consistency and cleanliness should be non-negotiable in a restaurant.

Hearty, flavorful, and comforting, just like a good homemade Mexican soup should be. I've also enjoyed their wet burrito smothered in green sauce, a tamale without the red sauce on top, and a side of tamalito, a delicious sweet tamale! The perfect little treat to round out the meal. Everything is packed with flavor and keeps this hungry dino coming back for more! Now, this dino has traveled and experienced Casa Bonita in Colorado, and I'd call El Tapatío Citrus Heights' own little version! It's nowhere near as big or elaborate, but it has that same fun, immersive atmosphere. The colorful Mexican decor gives the place so much character, making you feel like you've been transported straight to Mexico. Pair that with authentic food, and you've got a dining experience that's more than just a meal! Rex Tip: Come hungry on weekend mornings because they offer a Mexican breakfast buffet! There are so many delicious, authentic dishes to choose from, including freshly handmade tortillas! Just be prepared for a line because this place is popular, and for good reason. We've happily waited our turn because the food is absolutely worth it! A little taste of Mexico right here in Citrus Heights that's definitely worth digging into! 5 ROARS from Focusaurus Rex!

El Tapatio in Citrus Heights is not a bad spot. Place was pretty spacious and wasn't too crowded…read morewhen I went. Got chips and salsa right when I sat down, but it was about 10 minutes before anyone came to take my order. Food came out in about 8 minutes after ordering though. I got the two steak tacos meal which came with refried beans and cilantro rice. The beans were actually a highlight for me, flavorful and piping hot. The tacos were decent overall and the steak itself was definitely the strong point, but the red onions weren't finely chopped and that was throwing me off a little. Overall not a bad spot if you're in the area and want some Mexican food.

The restaurant had great energy and a fun, buzzy atmosphere. The crowd was a lively mix of people from the Capitol, couples enjoying date night and moviegoers grabbing dinner before or after a show. We ordered the carnitas and carne asada. Both plates were generous and full of flavor. The carnitas were tender and practically fell apart with a fork, and the carne asada was cooked perfectly. Add friendly service and a colorful setting, and you have a great downtown Sacramento dining spot!

We went in a Saturday around 2pm, the restaurant was not busy at all and we were seated promptly…read more The food at Tequila Museo Mayahual was good, and we enjoyed the flavors and overall atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service was lacking during our visit. One of our meals was forgotten and we had to flag down the server to let him know. Our server also wasn't around very often, so it was difficult to get refills or ask for anything we needed. When we requested a specific number of to-go boxes, we weren't given enough and had to get up and ask for additional boxes ourselves. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but I took away 1 star for the lack of service. The service could definitely use some improvement, especially since it wasn't busy when we went. With more attentive service, this could have been a much better dining experience.
