El Forastero Mexican Food Sacramento Reviews
Everything on the menu is good so far ! I'll be back soon super breakfast burrito is shmackin
Decent Mexican comfort food at reasonable prices. Good spot for a burrito.
We love authentic Mexican food. If you do too but haven't hit Forastero yet, do yourself a favor and check them out. One of the best in Sacramento!
Love the super burritos and the breakfast burritos! Fries are pretty good. The salsa bar is awesome! The staff is always really friendly.
I tried the Pozole for the first time, it was really good! Full of flavor and the amount of pork and hominy was just right. I usually get the tacos on Sunday for 2.49, you have a choice of shredded beef, ground beef, or chicken. Well done!
Outstanding quality service and value for Fast food Mexican food. One order of Super Nachos ($13) feed three. Fresh Horchata at reasonable prices, fast service with a smile. They take phone orders. Today I had their Taco salad will share with 2 friends. And of course drive extra miles to come here again.
Late night/early morning run to get food ended up being a win since this place is open 24 hours! I was surprised to see people actually there eating on the outdoor patio that time of night and after getting home and trying my Carne Asada Fries, I can see why. They were so yummy and perfect! Ordering in the drive-thru and receiving my food was so quick and the gentleman working was very friendly. I recommend this place and I will definitely be back!
The portions are generous and the food is good. They’re also open 24 hrs. What more can you ask for?
Delicious authentic food! Love the 24hr drive thru. I will be going back next time I’m in the area. The only that was really frustrating was that however they bagged my to go box, by the time I got home, all of my beans had seeped out and all over the bag. Just make sure to double check the orientation of your box before you head home.
It's ok food, average tasting Mexican food. There carnitas seems to dry like a day old or over cooked? The rolled tacos are way to expensive and cheap on the meat. Aldabertos has better and cheaper rolled tacos, more meat. But it further away...
I really hope to update my review. I stopped by because I haven't been here before, that simple. I ordered carnitas nachos. I really like positivity, so here is my take. They were incredibly fast and the chips were awesome! I think speed is the name of the game here. I'll be back to try what others are giving 5* reviews on. And...that's about it... Thanks for the speedy drive through!
I was a regular customer here, and they have really gone downhill. Today was my final visit. I ordered 6 items, over $100. For 2 of the items, 2 fish burritos I asked for extra tartar sauce on side. Both burritos had NONE on them and NO side. In times past I've asked to r sub beans for rice and they never get it right I got double beans... which I cant eat. I repeat my order and at window even say...can you make sure this is correct and specify. So sad to see a local place become bad. California burrito is less than a mile and several dollars cheaper. Save your money, like me and go there!
It was half way decent and kind of overpriced, 4 burritos and 4 sodas for $85, awful smell inside of the restaurant!!
They give you less meat in their #25 when you order from DoorDash. I thought it was a mistake at first but I ordered a 2nd time weeks later and barely any steak. Mostly eggs. Disappointing considering it cost almost $30 for a burrito through DoorDash. Can you really be that cheap on meat?
Bought a breakfast burrito with a hair inside rapped around the eggs. 🤢🤮. Disgusting! How do you not wear hair nets in the kitchen
Not gonna go in details but . Was very disappointed drove all the way from elk grove for some burritos and Shrimps around 11:00pm Saturday. While dinning at the back can be seen in CCTV . There was a hair in the shrimps ignored it then again another hair . Barely ate any left it there. Please take care of the hygiene. 😞
I ordered the Chicken Salad with extra cheese for a nice low carb meal. No problems with ordering. The food was good. The chicken was quite tender and juicy and perfectly seasoned. This was my first visit here and will probably be my last. Unfortunately, they do not have any low carb drinks without caffeine. And the salsa bar was unlabeled so it was impossible to know which hot sauce was which. So I sampled them all. Above average flavor on some. Some were not as much to my liking. But we all enjoy different things. Overall a adequate mexican food restaurant. But be warned - open 24 hours does not mean they will serve you after 10pm. If you drive a high profile vehilcle you cannot fit thru the drive through and they will *NOT* take your order at the door.
