I think I found my go to spot for tacos 🌮 ! Good portions of meat. I've been to places where the carnitas taste like asada. The flavor was unique to each meat. I tried the tacos of adobada, tripas, barbacoa & Carne asada. Plus the enchiladas! The grilled Chile's are picoso!
We go there sometimes. My husband's favorite place. The food is good, but you can't get a refill on your drink. I think the drinks should be included in the meals and you should be able to get a refill. They are the only place in town I know of that doesn't give you a refill.
Food was fine but that is not "asada". It's like pressure cooked cheap beef, def not asada, which is expensive, and what they are claiming to charge you for. And they don't use gloves when preparing your food, yes I know a lot of higher end restaurants have chefs that do not use gloves but this is not that. Wear gloves and don't lie about your quality of meat 👍
I ordered a shrimp coctel small and it was super fresh and packed as if I’d ordered the big one definitely recommend it , good price good quality never disappointed i their food and I’ve tried many items 👌🏼
The food is just excellent; I always stop by when I am craving some good taste of Mexican food.
I got their chicken quesadilla. The portion size is a little big but accordingly to the price. The variety of their menu is good. Their chicken was nicely seasoned ( it looked kind of like Al pastor chicken). I would suggest them to make sure they’re making sure they’re taking out the skin and/or grease from the chicken because in some bits I did get a weird consistency that felt and looked like skin or grease. The wait time was not long at all. They took like 5-8 minutes to complete my order. I’ve tried better quesadillas, but theirs are ok.
There food is just off the top! Totally recommend el taco rico, you won't be disappointed
Great asada fries,hard tacos,soft tacos. Yummy . Great customer service
Great food! I always order something with a side of rice, because if the rice isn't good who cares about the other stuff. I judge Mexican restaurants with extreme prejudice based on the simple menu items. But this restaurant has great cooks! It remi
There are 3 El Charro Tapatio in Porterville, but this location is the BEST one. Everything is always delicious and fresh. We really like the elderly lady in there. She is just genuinely happy and so sweet all the time. She is really good what she is
My first time here. Nice big portions. Its one of the more expensive mexican places ive eaten at so im glad i got to take half my food home for tomorrows lunch.
I love the food here I always get the wet burrito de Chili verde the servers are amazing and very nice sometime they even get my babygirl to smile or my sons talking and laughing I love it here !!! Just the atmosphere at times like the people that go
Large portions for the meals. I'm always ordering a #1 Mexicali Meal. I'm always sharing my meals with my kids or taking leftovers home. The staff is always friendly. I love how, if available, they ask if you'd like a table or a booth when most place
The very first bite and I absolutely knew that this was best patty melt I have eaten anywhere. I chose sourdough bread and pepper jack cheese. They grind their own meat. It was cooked perfectly and the strange part I noticed it melted in mouth. T
Our family's favorite restaurant in Porterville, hand down! We have ordered their food many times. We have tried almost everything on their menu.They are so heavenly delicious and such a great price. I personally love their sharwama. I love their hum
The chefs are not afraid to use the proper amount of peppers in their delicious food. Especially loved the larb and wished I could try more. Would make it a point to stop here again if anywhere close.
I'm not exactly a morning person. When I do happen to be out and about in the city I shop at , in the morning... Starbucks coffee put a smile on my face this morning.
Thanks and great job Starbucks,

First visit to this cafe. This was on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Got there early on recommendation of local friend. We were one of three tables, and the atmosphere was of a utilitarian cafeteria . Although, the walls were plastered with all sorts
Going in my first time today I was told that the burgers here would be both affordable and great. with the price being a little less then other restaurants and they were an amazing treat to have. May not be huge restaurant but quality over quantity.
Recently I took my boys to this park and they loved it they are both age 6 and under. As a parent I loved it because I saw how much they liked it. Rest rooms were clean and there was a good amount of seats all around for the parents to watch their k
I don't know why, but I think they make their drinks better here than 99% of other Starbucks. As someone who lives an hour away, I wish these employees could train the Bakersfield baristas.
