    They add illegal secrect charges that aren't on the menu . It says on the menu all tacos are 3.99 . They tried charging $3 extra per taco for 4 shrimp per taco . It's not stated on the menu . I will be reporting to consumer affairs as well as the BBB

    Taco Tuesday 7/23/24

    It's a Tuesday and you're feeling like tacos, but don't wanna break the bank. This is a good place to go. The food is solid, not exceptional and the price is right at only $2 a taco on Tuesdays. They're the small street tacos, I get three for total of $6 and it's filling with the chips and salsa. Way cheaper than cooking with no mess! If I were to rank the meats from what I've tasted, the best is the chili Verde followed by the Al pastor, Carne asada, carnitas and the shredded chicken is blah. I've tried the tamale, but don't recommend it, they're deep-fried and hard. After that experience, I just stick to the tacos. My in-laws have been coming here for years.

    Yummy!!

    OK, I am back at this place to check it out again. First of all I like to see the ambience and the overall feel of this place is very nice. They have updated and made a new little bar area. That is very nice. The food as usual is very good And I will make sure to put pictures up so you can see service is always great as usual this little hidden gem is a great pace to come and look at. If you are close to this area, you must come check this place out overall we will be back again. Check out the pictures.

    I was in the mood for a Super Burrito Al Pastor !!!! So I rolled to Taqueria Manteca ! I parked right in front!! I strolled in and I was Transported back to Mexico!! The Cashier Luis was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the Menu and the different Types of Foods and Drinks!!!? I ordered a Al Pastor Super Burrito for Dinner!!! I paid by Credit Card!!ll Warning they Charged a Service Charge for Credit Card Usage!!! Luis provided me with Complimentary Chips and Salsa!!! My Super Burrito was delivered to me at my Table !!! It was on the Smaller Size on the Super Burrito size scale!! It tasted Great and was Delicious !!! Luis gave me a Sample of Horchata and it was Delicious and refreshing!! The restaurant was Clean and Well Lit!!! Taqueria Manteca is a Baller On A Budget Approved Restaurant!!!!

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.

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.

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. !

I was super hungry so walked across the street to find some food. After looking into a couple restaurants in the same center, I decided to try mexican food. It's was a long line.

    Here's a polished and corrected version in English:…read more Normally I would give them 5 stars, but today they really disappointed me . I stopped by and ordered carne asada, a beet and carrot juice, and a guacamole. I was really happy and excited because, after a difficult day and going through chemotherapy, it sounded like the most delicious meal I could imagine. Imagine my surprise when I got home, set everything on the table, and realized my guacamole was missing. I was upset, but I thought, "Oh well." I decided to call later to ask for a refund, and meanwhile I started eating the carne asada... it was extremely dry and almost burnt. Since it was so dry, I took a sip of my beet and celery juice, only to realize it had orange and carrot in it instead, and the oranges tasted kind of rancid. So I called the restaurant to explain what happened with my guacamole and ask for my money back. While thinking about everything, it crossed my mind that I hadn't left a tip. I started wondering if maybe that was why everything went wrong. Right now I'm on disability because I'm undergoing cancer treatment and I'm unable to work, so financially things are not easy for me. Long story short, I spoke with a woman on the phone and all she said was, "Okay, you'll receive your refund in three days." What stayed with me the most was that there was no apology or empathy at all. It honestly left me feeling disappointed, and that's not okay. As a customer, especially during such a difficult time in my life, I expected at least some kindness and understanding. I'm leaving this message so management can better train their employees in customer service. It's not good to focus so heavily on tips or risk a lawsuit because of the attitude of a waitress or server.

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).
