We've rounded up Turlock's top Mexican spots for you to try.
“By far my favorite Mexican food establishment. If Hogwarts let me buy this location and bring it to my school, I would. The food is impeccable. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. The food comes out quick and delicious every time. The Ambiance is perfect for a Mexican food establishment. I highly recommend. The prices are fair and the portions are great.“
“First time trying this taco truck. I ordered the Carne Asada burrito supreme, which was quite good. Not very spicy only about a six out of 10 for spiciness but quite large for $10. (I'm sure you can ask for it to be spicier if you would like it to be spicier) I would rate it eight out of 10 for flavor as it did have very good taste and good quality Asada. The burrito came with a lemon slice, carrots, radishes, and a Serano pepper. I will be going back as I did enjoy the burrito.“
“Best Cream of Broccoli Soup ever! The service was outstanding! I was craving soup. My friend took me for lunch. I had the grilled ham and cheese with soup. The sliced ham was thick and the soup had lots of broccoli. A definite must place to eat. I'll definitely be back!“
“Started out try a Jimmy John's sandwich. But didn't have. What I wanted. So I ended up. My to go Place in Turlock. For good Mexican Food. Ordered a Sausage egg beans Breakfast Burrito. As I been writing about. In other Reviews. Still the same Delicious Mexican food around. Can't help but give a big 5. On taste. Come by give them a try. You won't be disappointed.“
“I was planning a surprise birthday party for Roxanne my wife's 60th birthday. After contacting several restaurants none would make me 50 enchiladas. When I contacted these guys I was told "I really don't serve these in my restaurant " I thanked him and was about to hang up but then he said he would make them for me. They were fantastic and a big hit. Thank you so much for helping make her night a success. I look forward to eating in your restaurant very soon Ken“
“This is a great spot with excellent food. The owner is super nice and the atmosphere is very welcoming. We had previously ordered food through DoorDash and finally went in person and it did not disappoint! They also have a little coffee place in the restaurant that makes really good drinks as well. 5/5 will go again!“
“Probably some of the best two tacos I have had, they are not your $2 tacos but the size is absolutely worth the money. I would say go with 2 if you do three that would be a pretty large meal. Never had a keto taco all cheese no tortilla, and the quesabirria El pastor off. The chain, nothing but fire here.“
“We used to dine at another local Mexican restaurant in town. We loved the ambiance and service, but the food was always inconsistent in my opinion. My husband suggested Javi's. The location is conveniently located near the college. Upon entering you are encouraged to seat yourself which is nice. The menu is extensive and there are pictures of all of the offerings which is helpful. We were promptly provided with warm tortilla chips, salsa, cabbage salsa and cheesy bean dip. Yummy! Our server took our order and brought our food to us very quickly. Our food was hot and tasty. Javi's provides quick and friendly service and hot and tasty food. We will definitely return!“
“An absolutely incredible amazing experience. It’s a whole trip within itself. The place itself looks amazing but the service is even better, my bus boy, Ulises was extremely kind and talkative, I saw him do an amazing act of chasing down a car after leaving when he found their wallet left on there table. All in all an amazing experience 11 out of 10 I will definitely go again and recommend that you go.“
“My wife and I have been going to El Charro for years, the food is always excellent anything we have tried through the years is always been top notch. My wife and I would recommend this Mexican restaurant 100% if you've never been here before try it at least once and I guarantee it won't be the last time. The outside & inside may not be the most appealing but it gives you the old Mexican restaurant feel. Try it“
“This was a Saturday night and my first time patronizing this business. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. There weren't many customers as you can see. Food was a decent price. Seemed freshly made. We ordered carne asada taquitos as an appetizer. They were ok although the meat was fairly tough and could've used a touch of seasoning or marinade of some sort. Also had the nachos, which were happy hour size. And not even 10$ can't be mad at that. I like the fact they have quite a lengthy happy hour. For the people in the tall chairs ? that is. Nachos weren't bad definitely filling. Pico needs a Lil work as well . Also ordered carne asada fajitas. This meat was definitely better than the chicken on the nachos and the dry taquitos. Also looked beautiful. Came with, rice and beans and sad looking pico, sour cream and guacamole. Side plate looked a Lil lack luster but the flavor was good from the rice. Beans could use improvement but they aren't bad. Drinks we had a margarita flight, LA barbie, and an old fashioned smoked. The flight was pretty good but also 22$ the barbie was great with watermelon cotton candy on top. If it is about the buzz though this isn't the one basically green champagne although I'm sure there's more to it. The old fashioned was super sweet. Very disappointed by the that. The novelty of the smoke was cool. The the results definitely not a favorite. Sweet liquor whilst standing over your smoker inhaling deeply.. that's what is was like and you don't want it. Truthfully the combo made us nauseous and all we did was taste it. Nothing however is perfect. This is a decent place with decent staff and food. I'll be back I might just drink ahead of time though ?“
“We were in Turlock and finally decided to try this Mexican bakery. I have been wanting to come here because of the reviews and never had the chance to. Don't be fooled by the outside look of the place, it can look scary but it's worth going there. It is a hole in a wall bakery so dont rxpect much. Came here to grab some conchas and whatever baked goodies they have. When you get in, you can grab a tray and tongs to get your own bread from their cabinets. I am a little unsure on how clean their trays are. I wish they also come with tray liner or something. Anyway I opted for the mini conchas and my boyfriend brought some other bread. They have a lot of bread that I wanted to try but wasn't sure what they are or what's inside of them (if any). I will definitely be back here again.“
“Ordered birria tacos and a shrimp quesadilla (super). The tacos were pretty big and gave good amount of meat. Tasted good. I probably will not go back for the quesadilla. I prefer quesadillas to be cheesy and I hardly tasted the cheese on this.“
“I'd wait 15 minutes to be seated here, maybe even 45 minutes.Jus saying the food is delicious, my go to Is the carnitas, delicious, or the wet burrito Supreme in green sauce, with carnitas if course, which mixes the red and green sauce bcuz i cant decide they bith are 2nd to none. and the chips and salsa (salsa, which is delicious) with cabbage on the side ?. Is a good start, of course complimentary. Thank you El Rosal, for opening back up in Turlock, and their lunch specials prices are a good deal the portions are just like the full price/ size ..

“Taco truck on Geer Road. Nice painted red tables. Nice touch when near CSU Stanislaus. Supreme burritos tasty, but does have cilantro. I love it but not everyone does. Know that so you can ask for the burrito without it. Tacos $2 each and tasty with good tasting tortillas. I asked for two salsas and the gave to me without an additional charge! Taco truck on East Ave. charges 75 cents for each salsa! I think one salsa per plate should be free so I really liked that they were free.“
