Salsa's Taqueria

Found a great local spot! They offer a variety of sauces and sides, and you can enjoy unlimited chips. The food tasted fresh and clean, and I didn’t feel heavy or tired afterward. Prices are a bit higher than regular Mexican restaurants, but the quality, flavor, and atmosphere definitely make it worth it. A full five-star experience! Full Review: I discovered a great local Mexican restaurant. They offer a wide variety of sauces and sides, and you can enjoy unlimited chips along with your meal. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the overall flavor felt clean and healthy. Even after eating, I didn’t feel heavy or tired, which made me think they don't rely heavily on artificial seasonings to boost flavor — a nice change from many other places. The price is a bit higher compared to typical Mexican restaurants, but considering the lively atmosphere, the wide selection of menu items, the fresh ingredients, and the great taste, it absolutely deserves a five-star rating.

There are so many options here and the food is extremely tasty. I highly recommend the nachos with steak! Great customer service too.

Beyond expectations! This restaurant is one of the best we have ever visited. The cleanliness is neat, the food delicious and the service excellent! I specially want to cheer Anita M our server for her great and sweet customer service. Keep doing that great job Anita!

First time here I orderd the chili Verde which was so delicious with flavor and big chunks of pork, I highly recommend Salsas great place and friendly plus the kind server came back to check if I needed anything else and asked if I needed more tortillas wow so cool thank you 😀

I enjoyed this lunch spot! Varied salsa bar with the yummiest pickles onions and more. Their tacos are also delicious and well priced. Fish taco was not perfect too. Their plates are also nice, but not as worth as the burritos or tacos in my opinion. Meat is not dry. The guac is subpar and tastes watery. Interior is spacious and modern. Casual vibe.

Very fresh and presented nicely. Salsa is not too hot. Lots of flavor, I ordered the chicken fajitas very flavorful a lot for your money. Also had carne asada on fries with cheese. Tasty. Will eat here again. Support the small business owners ✔️🇺🇲

Everyone was very nice and professional. The food was tasty. The chips were hot and crispy and they had an amazing assortment of salsas. They also had a great assortment of Mexican bottled sodas, fountain drinks, wines, alcohol and beers. They have several tv’s and they have music playing. Overall happy to have found this place.

SALSA'S TAQUERIA Restaurant When Chef Dines: It's a simple bar/eatery place where you order at a counter, but the food is served to your table. The service is amicable and courteous, and you can feel they want you there, and they care about your experience. The food, unfortunately, is uneven. We had tried many dishes. Last time we had four, and there's only one worth another try. 1. Flauta - a la carte $2.75 One with beef or pork. Both were really dry. 2. Tacos $5.97 Three tacos: Pastor + Carnitas + Carne Deshebrada All three were tender but could use some more seasoning. The good thing is they all came hot. Which is a big plus, since often tacos get less than lukewarm, the moment they end up on a table. 3. Kids Taco $5.75 One Taco al Pastor with beans and rice. Taco was warm, not seasoned enough, beans and rice flavorless. 4. Chile Colorado Plate $11.95 The best dish on the table. The meat was juicy and tender, nicely seasoned. In short: (1-5) * Taste: 2 (Chile Colorado 4) * Presentation of the dish: 1/2 * Standard of the restaurant: 2 * Waiting time: good * Dishes worth the money: Almost * Portion size: Medium * Service: Very Courteous * Cleanliness: Good * Type of restaurant: Everyday eatery/bar Overall: Some items are worth another try

We love this place! Great food and friendly service. I'm so happy that we live so close. Definitely some of the best Mexican food in Folsom. Highly recommended! Mark Speelman - Realtor & Appraiser (Ret)

The three meals that we had there yesterday were all just great. The lengua plate, delicious and plentiful, the shrimp dish the same and they even have fish and chips which my husband adores and that was also very good. Can't wait to go back and try the whole fish and several of the other offerings on their large and inexpensive (for what it is) menu. The service was very good too. You order at the counter and the only thing I could criticize at all was the fact that the chairs are not very comfortable so we went elsewhere for dessert. We sort of lucked onto the place having set out to go to the Indian restaurant next door not realizing it was vegetarian, so went to Salsa's instead, lucky break.

We've been coming here for 4 years now, sometimes weekly. We've always had amazing food here. Quesabirria tacos are the best! Rice and beans are flavorful. Fantastic salsa bar. Today I got the chile relleno--super good! Yummy horchata too!!

So disappointed. I ordered a carne asada burrito with no rice, light beans and extra carne asada which was 3 bucks more. This burrito is all beans and no carne asada barely at all. I paid like $20 bucks for this. Completely ripped off. Also it was supposed to have cheese, zero. Drove 20 minutes for this, so so disappointing.

Tried their California burrito special and it was delicious!! Giant burrito, they definitely don't skimp on portions here, come hungry. Had some flan for dessert and they make the best flan around here easily.

Only been a few times but consistently tasty food and generous portions. Great chips and salsa bar. Friendly and super fast service. Clean space but not overly fancy. Kind of what you might expect for a strip mall restaurant.

I've been here twice to order food, and both times I ordered a burrito with just double meat and one order was with rice only, the other with lettuce and tomato only with the double portions of meat. The first time the rice was packed in and it was basically a rice burrito. I did not enjoy that experience, the second attempt was yesterday when I ordered with veggies and got a veggie burrito for $20. Terrible experiences, I feel like I got ripped off. Won't be back. This place should be able to execute my orders easily but instead fumbled both times. Bad service and food.

Stopped in for a shrimp burrito, and it was great! The shrimp were huge and cooked just right. Burrito was stuffed and even had avocado. The chips had to have been fresh because my leftovers were still good three days later.

I cannot say enough good news Hong's about Salsa's Taqueria and the staff. I placed a large order over the phone for pickup for late afternoon/early evening pickup. Staff was courteous and helpful answering my questions and also accommodating my requests for things to be placed on the side. Order was ready quickly and very well packaged when I went to pickup. Did not expect chips and salsa either! That was a nice touch. They have a self serve chip and salsa bar if you eat in the restaurant. Highly recommend for dine and pickup. Food, salsa and chips were all excellent.

Food was great and service was fast. I had the chicken torta and my son has the street tacos

First time here. We came at about 6:50. One other person was dining. By the time we ordered and sat down there was a line already and a couple groups came in. It's open seating. A small place. Table and chairs and some bar seating tables with stools. We ordered the quesabirria special. It was 3 of them with cosume and pickled onions, fresh onions and cilantro. They have a nice salsa bar with an array of salsa. We tried 4 of them and all were very good! Chips were good, they make them in house. The tacos were amazingly good! The corn tortillas are large and sturdy and hold up to the dipping of the cosume. The cosume was very flavorful. We can't wait to try more items in the menu if we can ever get past the quesabirria tacos! These are the kind I'm sure we will have cravings for!

Salsa's located in Folsom, was a completely tasty surprise! They are nestled in a shopping center, and if you don't know that they're there, or you don't know to look for them, you may just pass them by. Diners tip: order the crispy tacos. Every time. Yes, they're that good. The crispy tacos are filled with deliciousness, and if you can eat all of them, then hat tip to you. You can order any of the food items with your choice of meats, ranging from pork, beef, fish, and vegetarian. Both the Carnitas and the asada were pretty tasty, and I could barely finish one. It was damn delicious! I really prefer the filling to the actual tortilla shell that the taco was made from. It's hard to tell based on taste if it is made in house that way, or if it's premade. The nachos while tasty, we're definitely more chips and basic toppings, with very little meat. However, great flavor profile, and really, really tasty. Everyone orders at the counter, and is given a number and you can select where you'd like to sit. The food will be brought to the table. Drinks are self serve. Nice place, good food, and nice people. Plus, if you go, you can get your taco on!

I've been here most of my life and I had the best experience.And it's good and it's so delicious

Came here to get me some barbacoa style tacos like the ones I used to eat in Mexico. Ordered the cabeza tacos and they were perfect!! Ask for the spicy salsa, also they have a delicioso pozole!!! Trust me it's worth trying. Enjoy!!

Been going here for years. My favorite salsa and buche in all of the Sacramento area. My family loves going here.

DO NOT Order Online today! (Cinco de Mayo, May 5th). This was a awhile back, but I was charged for an order I never received. I called the next day and someone told me the owner would follow up, but they never fixed the issue. In hindsight, I should of issued a charge back immediately. Avoid this place for online ordering today.

Super good!! Fast. Food was muy delicioso!!! We will be back!! Fresh, big portions, great presentation!

Not very friendly!! It seemed to be an inconvenience for them to take my order! The rice and beans were good, but the carne asada tacos were very bland.

Food was great well organized clean Tortillas were very good I rarely like tortillas if they are not fresh the ones they served here were delicious.

The salsa bar is delicious the pickled veggies are so delicious. The food is also tasty. If we are up here for a xc meet or coming back from the lake this is a must stop.

Great service, reasonable prices, good portions. The chips and salsa are tasty as well as the pastor plate had a juicy meat and all the sides to it were delicious. It compares with nearby Fiesta although I would lean slightly towards that one.

The food is always great here. I have never been disappointed. Great salsa bar too. I just purchased 15 burritos for the guys at work and they raved.

I hope it was just an off day but this was a very disappointing first visit to Salsa's Taqueria. The place was nice and clean and the staff was very nice, but the food was bland and the very opposite of authentic. My experience at Salsa's really makes me question the legitimacy of these reviews. That's how disappointing the food was! The chips weren't very good and tasted like old oil or grease and the spicy salsa wasn't spicy. The food was bland and so disappointing considering all of the positive reviews. It's almost like it's made for the general population instead of just good flavorful Mexican food. I like supporting small businesses, and I hope this was just an off day for this restaurant, but I will not be back to give it a second chance. There are just too many other options for me to take another chance.

Still our favorite place! Tried to convince my kids to try something new but got a solid "no". Every time we've come here our bellies are satisfied. Chips were fresh and I love the salsa options too! Staff were courteous and friendly. Music is always great and I like that they have games on TV. There's also different seating options from a traditional table to a high table, which is nice for folks that may need a taller chair.

Coming from San Jose, I've been missing quality Mexican food. Salsa's hits the spot for me! I come from Rancho Cordova to get their super burritos. They're delicious! They also have a chile Colorado sometimes on special which is amazing. I love the self-serve chips and salsa bar & the various flavors of margaritas they have. All of the servers are so friendly. Would recommend!

Very bland. It's a shame when the meat and beans are cooked perfectly yet lack flavor. All the salsas were bland, even the spicy salsa was far from spicy. I added salt to everything which did nothing to my palette. Should have went to a taco truck.

My wife, my son and I tried this place for the first time last Saturday. My wife had the Street Taco and a quesadilla. She does not like spicy food and they were able to put everything spicy on the side. She gave me a taste of the quesadilla and it was good. I had the Pastor Plate which was also very good. I can't honestly remember what my son ate. Everything tasted fresh and the food came out very quickly. We will return.

Very friendly staff. We came right before a big rush. We ordered fish & asada street tacos. They have a great chip & salsa bar yo enjoy while you wait. I did feel like it took long to get our tacos, but they were delicious!

Haven't been here in a while, but they still make the best burrito in Sacramento County! Super friendly! Had the breakfast burrito with chicken. It came out fast and hot as expected. Be careful with the jalapeño salsas! Great place to stop by as well if you're traveling on Highway 50!

I have been on the hunt for solid Mexican food since moving to Folsom from the Bay Area. Having lived in San Jose + Oakland spoiled me for what qualifies as bomb ass Mexican cuisine. Walking in I was already a fan of the chip + salsa bar and around the corner are horchata + other juices - unlimited! Love. I had a carne asada burrito which I practically inhaled; my husband had menudo. It was very flavorful and they gave him additional tortillas when they checked on us a couple times. We got their house made flan to go and enjoyed it at home. It was a great dining experience and we will be regulars!

Since moving from SoCal 10 years ago, this is the best Mexican food we have found in the Sacramento area. It took us almost 10 years to find this place and now we visit once a week. Our family's favorites? Shrimp & avocado tostada, shredded chicken enchiladas w/ green sauce, birria tacos, flautas & quesadillas. The variety at the salsa bar is killer. You will easily find one or more salsas you'll love. The service is wonderful & all the ladies are so sweet & hospitable. Give this place a try!

I wasn't super in the mood for Mexican food when my fiancé selected this place, but I'm so glad we went! You order at the counter; the staff were friendly and the larger dining area was clean. I got two street tacos with carne asada which were some of the best I've had. I was really into their hot and salty tortilla chips offered at the extensive salsa bar, included with your order. I would be a regular here if I were a local!

I have been here several times and the food is always good and staff are friendly. The service is quick and the different variety of salsa's are really good. This time I had the carnitas street tacos with rice and beans. The inside is clean and the decor is nice.

Pricey, but good fresh food with a great salsa bar that's not too salty or hottt.Good friendly service.

I wanted to try the menudo but they were out of it so I got the bacon egg burrito and it was ok. I would never get it again. The beans tasted like if they were out of a can and tortillas also smelled and tasted store bought. The service was good and friendly we are used to eating authentic Mexican food from Texas so maybe I'm just not used to this style. I probably won't return... sorry

45 minute wait for two regular tacos... i repeat... 45 minute wait for two tacos and it was not even that busy i'll never come back to this location

It's heart breaking to see a good, not great, but good, reliable place go to hell. It's been a few times the carne asada has been cooked to funk, and it's just hard, salty cardboard. They tend to mix shredded chicken with grilled chicken too. If you can cook the most basic stale meat, you should consider your choice of business.

I chose this restaurant based off a picture I saw when I was craving Mexican food. The customer service was friendly and helpful. I showed the picture to the server and got that. It did not disappoint. The salsa bar had many options and was delicious, the chips were fresh and so was the food. It tasted like a home cooked meal. Definitely would go again.

POV Texas girl moving from DC to Sacramento in desperate need of decent tacos after suffering east coast pale imitations... LOVED THE STREET TACOS HERE. Phenomenal! PORTIONS: filling and hearty PRICE: appropriate, maybe even a steal! SERVICE: the place is order first and self-serve for chips and salsa which I like so we don't have to flag someone down or bother waiters for things we can get ourselves SURROUNDINGS: clean and open FLAVORS: Pastor, carnitas, and cabeza we're all beautiful, flavorful and paired with individual salsas to bring out their unique tastes. For dessert we had the FLAN and it was great to end with for me. HOWEVER, my dining companion found the flavor lacking in his lengua taco and the giant tamales. I'd say stick to the street tacos.

"Pretty good". Huge menu. Prices are reasonable. I just wish there was more meat on the nachos. Way too much picadillo!!

Ive been here before & everything was fine, but that was about 2 years ago. I went last night all excited, craving green sauce chilaquiles. So I got that & a fountain drink, & my husband got a torta & a margarita. It was $62 for the 2 of us. The green sauce on my chilaquiles was spicier than I expected which threw me off. The food we got made us both sick & we had to rush home shortly after. Sick because I wanted to like this place, but I'll just have to try somewhere new

Very authentic Mexican place. Love their Salsas. They have the most and best salsas ever. Give it a try soon you will not regret it. Very friendly owners and staff too.

Food was amazing and out quick, staff is always friendly and must try is the birria tacos and the pineapple agua fresca!!!! Def will be back 10/10

Came here for the Birria Queso Tacos, it did not disappoint. It was seasoned, crunchy and tasty. I always love a Taqueria that offer free chips and salsas! The portions were huge, I had to ask for a box to go.

First, change your menu to reflect the real prices. The food is not good and has no taste. I don't usually leave reviews but I spent good money to receive pretty low quality food . Should have gone to Taco Bell.

This is the best place in Folsom for a super burrito. They have many different meats and styles. Their salsa bar is always full and chips are hot and ready to go. Plus they do offer kids meals too.

During lunch, my dad and I went on a foodie adventure up to Folsom to try Salsa's Taqueria. Located in an inconspicuous shopping plaza, Salsa's serves up some of the tastiest Mexican food I have had in the Sacramento area. I opted for their Birria tacos which were absolutely delicious. My dad tried their street tacos with a variety of meats. And for dessert, we shared a vanilla churro and a caramel churro. Everything we had was extremely delicious and I love that they have a self-serve salsa bar.

No sabor!! No flavor!! Food ordered Cons: 1.) chicken fajitas- although the chicken was somewhat tender it was too thick and chunky in size. The red and green pepper weren't cooked down enough and didn't have the char I'm used too. 2.) nachos- the under layer chips were soggy due to the toppings. The meat was okay. 3.) Birria plate- just okay, tender but lacked flavor. 4.) chip and salsa area- I saw a man rub his nose and then grab chips with that same hand (unsanitary) Pros 1.) Tortilla chips and salsa-good and tasty 2.) refried beans-creamy and tasty 3.) seating-tables and tall tables with plenty of seating This place was average. I didn't even want to take photos of the food like I normally do.

After my family went to the folsom outlet we wanted to have Mexican food for lunch and went to Yelp to find some good place and we found Salsa Taqueria , we were created by a waitress very friendly and helpful on there menu since we have to ordered first then sit down afterwards . My son ordered shrimp Burrito, and my husband ordered steak ala Mexicans come with grilled steak and roasted vegetables . And I ordered chili con Relleno. All the food taste very good and serving big portions . You can also help yourself with chips and salsa.
