La Costa Taqueria: Authentic Mexican Flavors in Salinas

Excellent burrito top ten after 47 years in the Bay area. Pineapple agua frescha #1.

Super chill local spot. All seating is outdoors, some in the patio and some under the shade. Great customer service. Prices were good and food is delish. We liked it so much we got some to go.

Good, fast Mexican food. It lived up to the expectations of quick lunch fare that is not a burger.

Super quick, delicious, and reasonably priced. We ordered a couple of burritos and were able to eat out in the patio area where the tables are nicely spaced apart.

We were hungry and the place had street appeal. The smells were also good as we drove by, so we turned around and came back and pulled in. Everything looked neat and clean and as I said had street appeal, by that I mean well ordered no trash anywhere and well kept. There were cars in the parking lot and I walked up to the order window with several people ahead of me. I examined the menu from overhead and mentally prepared my order. When I got to my turn I placed my order and took a seat to await delivery of my order. I actually didn't have to wait long and my order was delivered to me via my number provided to me upon completion of my ordering. Although I wasn't provided any silverware or napkins, my order was complete and exactly as I ordered it. Since all the orders are to go or you can sit at one of the tables and eat, my husband and I were eager to get back to our hotel room, so we took our order and left. When we got back I snapped pictures of the food which you see below, everything looked delicious and as we tasted the fair, it was as good as the pictures promised. In fact the tostada had so much meat I had to take some of the meat off just to eat it. Although I'm from out of town I would go back to this restaurant again to order and, I probably will, since we often visit here from out of town. All this food was only $13; as I said, it tasted good, but later, we both had indigestion from the grease. I guess each person must decide if it is worth it.

If this place had indoor seating it would be great. I had taquitos de cabeza and menudo for breakfast. It was all so tasty.

try the super nachos they are delicious. not on the menu, but they used to have a picture of them. you can still order them.
