Taqueria Carolina No 2

Just want to say there tacos are grate hear. if your craving some good tacos check them out.

So much flavor in the food plus the employees are very welcoming and helpful. I was short a few bucks and the gentleman told me I can pay it next time I came in. Super fair prices for the great dishes this taqueria has to offer.
Definitely check it out if you haven’t yet.

This is one of our favorite Mexican places in the area so far (besides La Costa). Why? The carne asada burritos are good (flavorful, marinated meat, good portion for the price), the service has always been SUPER FRIENDLY, and for me, I love the SALSA! I cannot get enough of the salsa — it has great flavor and is seasoned just right with spices, and not watery like some other places.
It’s a little hole in the wall place, so we have gotten our orders to go. Located in the mall where Walgreens is at. It’s a good place to feed a family of four for about $ 25 and you get chips, too. We’ve been here about five times already and we keep coming back!

Love this place! Great burritos and lobe the steak it is very simple but also very yummy! Finding a good Mexican restaurant in Tracy has been challenging but I’m glad we discovered this place. My daughter really enjoys the bean burritos with rice, beans and cheese. They have 3 different salsas at the salsa bar but they are all delicious and fresh in taste. The meals do come with one bag of chips per meal and every additional bag is only 25 cents. We will be back!

It was great. Price was average, and they got my food out fast even though it was crowded and busy. I got a carne asada super burrito. It was really good. It wasn’t watery or soggy at all.

Aww man. Hate to do this because I’ve been coming here for years. This place is officially on my BANNED list. 2 consecutive visits with issues — the first was a nasty looking hair in one of the carne asada tacos, the second was rice that was spoiled. No mas…

This little Taqueria is great. They also sell large party tray portions, if your having a party-​Best prices for large party trays. I’ve done my research. I’ve placed order’s for several parties, as well as my 10yr. anniversary (yrs ago~ 2008) and recently for my daughters Quinceañera.We have never had any issues with the food. Great tasting food. I’ve been ordering food from this place since 2007.

Authentic Taste, affordable price. Nice location and fast service. I worked around the area for a few years and stop by here from time to time to have authentic taste and real food instead Taco Bell. The staff is friendly and will make your order the way you want it. The super burrito is no joke they load it to the brim. Definitely a good date night spot.

This was the grossest Mexican food ever. I would rather eat Alpo dog food. I’m not sure if that was even chicken I just bit into. The smell and taste made me vomit in my mouth. The chicken had a sick taste to it.
This was a total waste of money. I ended up making pb & j sandwiches for dinner. My five year old had a bean rice burrito. And I guess they forgot to cook the rice. Do not waste your money

Had a torta here w pastor. Not bad not great, meat needs more flavor but the sandwich was decent.

Best Mexican food in Tracy… salsa rocks, especially the Verde! The el Pastor is awesome, carne asada is so tender… I love their refried beans too. Totally love this place!

This was our second time coming here but for sure it will be the last. The first time we came (a few months back) everything a delicious and the customer service was nice a friendly but you could tell that the girl today did not want to be there or like we were bothering her by placing an order. We Ordered nacho fries but got regular nachos ordered a green wet burrito but got red. You could hear them talking amongst themselves saying that didn’t have something in Spanish but instead of telling us before they made it they just made whatever they wanted to serve. We won’t be back!

I came here one late night and they got our food out quick. I appreciated that since we were really hungry. Only came here because our favorite place taqueria Maguey was closed already. The food at taqueria Carolina is mediocre. Their chips are borderline stale and have a weird aftertaste. I had a grilled chicken taco. The meat was tasty but the tortilla was cheap and crumbly. I also had an asada burrito which was not good at all. Beans and meat were under salted and flavorless. This is the second time I come here and will not come back again since the experience was pretty much the same.

Nothing fabulous here. The service is relatively fast and to the point. The salsa bar is good and the carnitas and pastor aren’t bad. I think overall it’s mediocre at best but will do in a pinch.

I Use To Love This Restaurant… I use to buy Carne Asada Tortas from here, until the last time I went with my cousins. My younger cousin ordered the same torta that I ordered, and he found a hair in the last few bites of his sandwich. I approached the front counter to talk to the manager. He came to the counter to help me with my problem and he accused my cousin of putting his own hair in his food, when my cousin really pulled the hair out of the sandwich. As I glanced over the counter and looked in the kitchen; the cooks were not wearing hairnets, gloves, and also had beards. It had to be a cooks hair, right? So, in a kind manner I asked for my money back or if my cousin could have a replacement and the manager lifted the plate and said «There is no more torta. I can’t replace it. Or you can have half of the money back.» When there was pretty much half of the sandwich left.
What kind of service is this? Worst service ever if you ask me. I was not a satisfied customer, so I really hope no one else enjoys HAIR IN THEIR FOOD.

Great if you want to stop for a quick bite. I like to mix all the salsa together to create something a little more jazzy. Usually get the Vege burrito but have come in often for just salsa. Its great to take to a party.

We Ordered the chicken taco, chicken nachos, asada nachos, and burritos along with coke. EVERYTHING was bad except the burrito and the coke. The chicken was NOT seasoned it was extremely bland and COLD. I had to add hot sauce and cheese and even that couldn’t revive it. I ordered three tacos but could only get through one and threw the rest away. The same deal with the chicken on the nachos.
The meat on the asada nachos was fill with more fat than with actual meat and barley any cheese on it. Instead of getting beans on top we asked to have it on the side good thing we did because they weren’t appetizing. And to top it off the chips for the nachos were all stale.

I would have gave more stars but I have a very picky fiancé so when I ordered a sour crème, rice, cheese and carnitas burrito and was very specific that, that’s all needed to be in there and come home with salsa and beans (a big no no on beans) I wasn’t in the best grace’s lol. Also 3 kids cheese burritos, 1 burrito with minimal ingredients and a couple street pescado taco’s comes out to $ 29.70 I expect it to be delicious and correct!
Food wasn’t bad but I’ve had better. Most likely won’t go back as I know of a few other taqueria’s which are better… little further drive but to me worth it.

Bad experience here. Ordered the special of the day, it was super special, almost nothing there. Chile Colorado plate for eight dollars was 3 pieces of meat… literally. It looked like there was maybe 5 pieces but they turned out to be large bones, possibly cartilage too. They forgot my tortillas too. This was take out food and i called them immediately when i got home… no way to get through! Maybe they take their phone off the hook when busy? This all happened after they tried to overcharge me by almost $ 20! I caught the error and they refunded me, Carnitas quesadilla and bean and cheese burrito were average.

For the most part, buche can either be the pig’s esophagus or stomach. Taqueria Carolina’s version is the latter and it is worth all the four stars I am giving this place. There are two other locations in town that have buche in their menu but they are so far behind in terms of taste and quality.
Señor Jesus has mastered the craft of preparing the pig’s stomach, which takes some tender loving care and patience to make. This is part of the digestive track and if it’s not properly cleaned, you would be able to recognize it from the smell and, of course, from the taste. Of all the times I’ve eaten their buche, it has been spot on. It is actually more enjoyable than a pig’s ear because you won’t have to deal with the cartilage. Although buche is griddled before serving, it never loses that somewhat sticky texture which, for me, makes the meal even better.
My penchant for offal dishes is huge and I know not everyone has the same inclination. For the benefit of Carlitos and Catalina, they also serve al pastor, carnitas, carne asada, pollo asado, chile verde, chile colorado, pescado, and camaron. Cabeza, lengua, and tripas are available for those who want something other than the ordinary. Although there are several options, it is the buche that leads me here. Their tripas is a little bit on the saltier side but I still get it every now and then. Al pastor, lengua, and cabeza are pretty solid. But if you want to Unilocal about something different and delicious, you know which one to choose… =)
