Quesa Birria Tacos
Connor K.

Great food for great prices! I got the quesa birria tacos for lunch with a friend, which came with a soda (I elected to skip), chips, and salsa all for about $16. Atmosphere is meh, it's a tiny spot with little seating - but this place obviously excels in the take-out category. Must try if you live in the area!

Pork bone
Bill V.

My neighbor ate there and ordered some pork tamales, and she bit right into a pork bone, a big pork bone.... and shattered her back tooth . She went back to tell them about it and they did nothing about it ... they didn't even care. I think the words used were "It happens " Forget this place .... I won't be going to this restaurant ever and you shouldn't either .....the least they could do is pay for her tooth! Jeeez

Carnitas plate. It was a lot of meat.

Carnitas was yummy, great beans too. I also enjoyed the variety of salsas. Small place, only a few tables, most people were ordering to go.

Quesa Birria's.  So Yummy!

Amazing food!! The Quesa Birria's are the best. Fresh salsa and the owners are such nice people. Highly recommended!

Super taco, tamale. Beans and rice
Valerie A.

We've lived in California for 14 years and this is some of the best, freshest Mexican food we've had since we lived here. Generous portions and delicious flavors. We ate in and had chips and salsa before our lunch, I loved both salsas, one was super spicy. Great service too. We will definitely be back.

Super Nachos
Anissa C.

So we tried this place cause we were in the area the reviews showed it to be positive and things on the menu looked good. So let's start with the 2 stars, the menu items seemed to be in all dishes nothing really À la carte. The food just had no real flavor the jalapeños were pickled out of a jar and the avocado was a few slices on top of the nachos I tried it with the Chile verde it was dry and had no taste. Other then that the staff was friendly the place looked clean

quesabirria
Kayla E.

absolutely love taqueria tepa! their food never disappoints. tried the quesabirria and it was phenomenal. i've been here multiple times having grown up in the area, and i've never had a bad item. don't get me started on the chips and salsa *drool worthy*. the staff are always friendly, and i'm always greeted with a smile. my only complaint is they're not open on weekends, but it's the perfect excuse to go during the week! an absolute gem to have in the cameron park area.

5 Grilled steak tacos

We tried their crispy grilled steak tacos. The meat was tender but a bit dry. Price was reasonable, and our order was ready for pickup when we arrived. These are the best tacos in Cameron Park, since Tasty Taco Box moved to pleasant valley.

I eat there once a week I'd go more , but there hours limit me. It's better than any Mexican food 50 miles around . Try their Mole sauce.

The go-to around here. I've eaten every burrito in a 15 mile radius. When Tepa is open, I go here, first.

Taqueria Tepa is a great little place to grab a bite to eat. Their burritos are very flavorful and a generous portion.

It has been a few years since we have eaten here…read more Came in for a late lunch and the place was empty. The male owner was serving us and seemed very rushed. That was not a good feeling, but then he also did not speak English well. He messed up three of the four items we ordered and of course they all cost more than what we ordered. When we got the bill and told him, he got the cook and we were able to settle everything out easily. We were told that the owner's wife was out so he was serving. We were happy to hear that his serving was temporary :). I am not sure if we received the lunch item or dinner item because our bill was wrong, but I ordered the chile verde chimichanga which comes with rice and beans. It was hot and fresh and absolutely delicious! My partner had the bean and cheese lunch and he loved it as well. The salsa was flavorful and mild. All of the food was mild so next time I will ask for some spice! The restaurant is a good size and festive looking. It was clean and comfortable and the prices were good! We can't wait to go back!

It's been a couple years since we ordered take out from here and it was a bad experience…read moreunfortunately tonight when we did. Ordered half chicken which husband enjoyed but the rest was thrown out. 4 chicken flautas that were so burnt the meat looked like burnt steak. The chips they added for free were dark brown, the jalapeño poppers over cooked and dark brown was also missing any ranch for dipping. Lastly, we ordered 2 carne asada tacos and the meat was also burnt black and dark brown bits, no lime served on the side for these. After leaving a 25% tip online we'd hoped to have an enjoyable meal but we were disappointed. Also surprised at whoever packaged the food, letting it be served in that condition was concerning. We'll try elsewhere next time we are in the mood for good Mexican food.
