La Raza Market and Taqueria — Restaurant in Jefferson City

Update: 8. 28. 25 DAMN!! Run, don't walk to get a plate of these killer street tacos! Unfortunately, we live at the Lake so we can only indulge when we're up here. My husband wanted a carne asada burrito with only guac & pico de gallo. No rice, beans or covered in cheese sauce. They made it exactly right! A++++

I ordered 4 street tacos. 1 tripa, 2 Barbacoa & 1 carnita. Absolutely 🔥 and the little tacos were stuffed with meat. They also used the traditional, 2-tortilla per tacos system. A++++ The servers were super nice and the place is spotless. #supportsmallbusinessowners #tacosarelife ♥︎♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ Excellent street tacos, which means small, meat filled tacos made w/double corn tortillas. Ladies that work there are super friendly, totally bilingual and very helpful. Prices are fair and the place us very clean. I hope that one day the shelves will be full and we can buy fresh meat, tortillas, and produce. But an A++++ experience...

We were so excited to find our answer to the best Mexican market and taqueria in the area! All of the food is extremely fresh and very flavorful - 100% authentic. The carne asada is seasoned perfectly. The street tacos are my favorite! The employees treat you like family. Do not miss out on ordering tamales which they typically do 1-2 times per month (Make sure to like their FB page). The market portion is amazing as well. From fresh meats and cheese to packaged goods, and bakery dulce items delivered fresh, you will find everything you need to make the perfect Mexican meal here. You can also eat in if you prefer. I highly recommend this...

I placed an order for a variety of Pan Dulce (Mexican Sweet Bread). The cost was very economical, the order came on time and the sweet bread was fresh and packaged up to keep them that way. They called me as soon as my order was ready for pick up.

There was a wide variety of concha, marranito, mantecada, rebanada panque, polvorones and more than I can name.

Authentic Mexican pastries are hard to find in Missouri. Having the availability to order some in Jefferson City is great. My family, especially my mom, were very happy to have some for the New Year. I will order Pan Dulce from La Raza again.

Thank you for making my family’s holiday...
