I'm an out-of-towner and was referred here by another person traveling with me. This was BY FAR the best Mexican food I've ever had. Everything was done soooo well, and everything was SUPER fresh. My mind was blown.
This week's daily specials in photo. Today's Caldo de res looks delicious. It's 9a.m., so I got a breakfast burrito to go, made to order: flour tortilla, ham, potato, egg, pico de gallo. Very tasty. Pleasant, helpful staff.
For us it's all about the Carnitas, roasted pearl onions/jalapeños. We buy a pound to make homemade tacos the night of purchase, then the leftovers serve as nibbles for several days. Lots of other Mexican food treats throughout the market. We are new to the area. So happy we stumbled into Ortega's
Best kept secret in Santa Rosa!! The restaurant in this supermarket is just so good!! From enchiladas to taco salad and especially the super burrito!
Great taqueria Great Spanish customer service at taqueria So Friendly very very good muy bueno 100% will be back to enjoy a delicious Mexican food family ambiance store great temperature on meals And guess what????? They have Mexican sweet bread delicious And gelatinas wow good
Best kept secret in Santa Rosa! The restaurant inside the market will give the best food truck a run for its money. The Super Burritos - I always order the Carne asada - are probably the best in town. Tacos are bomb and their soups will make you hurt yourself they're so good. The grocery store is amazing too. I've walked out with a few bags of produce for under $20 - It's one of my favorite places to shop and they always have great deals.
While I browsed the store a little, I primarily came for take out from the tacqueria in the market. I came by on a weekday around 11am. There is a nice group of tables in a seating area, with a coffee and an icee/slurpee machine. There are pictures over the counter to see what you're getting. Based on what interested me from other reviews, I ordered two al pastor tacos and a carnitas super burrito with no rice and jalapenos. Service was very friendly and fast. You can see them making everything right behind the counter. The deli case has various meats like carnitas and chili verde, so can you see exactly what you're ordering looks like. The bakery case is right next to the counter, so there is a lot to browse from donuts to cookies to breads to flans to cheesecakes. Drinks are along the back wall if you're looking to get something besides coffee or icee. Lots ot produce that looked good and a tempting aisle of spices and chilis that I will take time to browse sometime soon. I got my order in good time - they do make it fresh from the order, so don't expect to run out with your order in 30 seconds, browse around and relax. They have a great salsa bar to the left of the main deli case, so it's a great chance to sample their various salsas - but be warned that several of them are spicy. The two tacos were vary basic, with the very small tortilla's and some pico de gallo. They did provide a whole half of a lime and I love it, so I was happy about that. The al pastor was very good, tasty and smoky without being greasy. They made good 2-3 bite snacks, I would not have them as a main meal unless you eat very little. The carnitas in the burrito was amazing. It had the perfect texture, well cooked but not mushy. There were some pieces with deliciously roasted edges and the meat was moist without being greasy. There was a good amount of jalapenos and other toppings in the burrito. The beans were pinto and they were fine if unremarkable. About the only drawback for me was that I prefer black beans and they don't have those. Burrito was giant and heavy, I easily made two meals out of it. Super friendly, great ingredients like your grandmother would make and a good price point make this a great place to stop if you enjoy authentic Mexican food.
They do some nice burritos at Ortega's but I was even more impressed by their wonderful selection of pastries. Empanadas, turnovers, cinnamon rolls, pan dulce... and all only 95 cents! Huge dinner rolls are 3 for $1. I'll be back.
