El Barrio Mexican Market — Local services in Grass Valley

For starters let me say I have a large family so when we want Mexican it can get expensive. We usually buy the meat already cooked from other places for about the same price as what this place charges. 12.99lb. Only this place charges 12.99lb before they cook it so I end up with 3.5 pounds of meat for 70 dollars. I've never paid that much anywhere else ever. That is crazy. Now this is the second time I've ordered from them the first time I ordered I asked for 5 pounds they weighed it and charged me for just over 4 pounds about 53 dollars and change. This time the lady brings me to the front register and charges me 70 dollars and some change when my food was ready I asked how much does it weigh well I only get 3.5 pounds this time for a mush higher price. Unfortunately I will not be back. They have a good flavor meat but I will not ever pay that price for meat again I feel ripped off I asked one lady say she rang me up wrong the first time and the second lady says that's how they charge before they cook it I would understand the price if I were charged properly the first time I would not have came back the second time. There will not be a third time. So for 70 I get 3.5 pounds. 70÷3.5=20. So 20lb is what I...

Is this cold weather making you daydream about a trip to Mexico? You don’t have to get on a plane to scratch that itch! Okay, okay - there’s no beach and it’s not magically 85 degrees - but there’s everything else you need to fulfill your fantasy. The tacos are to.die.for. Seriously, I could eat the carne asada tacos EVERYDAY. Grab a Jarrito to wash them down and you’ll feel like you walked away from the best taco truck in PV. If you’d rather cook (not me) - you can grab raw meat, chicken, or pork out of the deli case and whip up a fiesta in your kitchen. Need spices? Check! Need a gourmet hot sauce you can’t find anywhere else? Check! Need the ingredients for yummy side dishes? Check? How about some fresh Pan Dulce (Mexican sweet breads) for dessert? Check and check! AND, if you’re looking for home decor or gifts - they’ve got that too! Don’t forget a piñata for your kid’s birthday party! The staff are all...

Amazing burritos, and I'm literally the pickiest person in Nevada County when it comes to Mexican food, because I grew up in Austin, Texas. If you know, you know.

Breakfast burrito is to die for and big enough to share. The burrito with everything is amazing. Their fried beef and chicken tortas are off the charts good. Their fresh marinated meats to be taken home and cooked are also amazing. My only complaint is the marinated beef contains way too many tough, unchewable pieces, that still taste amazing, but yeah, I like to be able to chew up the meat that I'm eating (this is really common in Mexican food for some reason.) The owners are super friendly folks and great community members. So glad...
