Panaderia El Pueblo II

Tacos here are really good. My boyfriend & I frequent here a lot on weekends for their tacos. We usually always get carne Asada tacos, and they’re pretty cheap too! $ 1.50 per taco. It seems family owned and they seem to be nice people. The language barrier between the cooks & I can be a little troublesome whenever I ask for grilled jalapeños and onions but nonetheless still a place I would go to for authentic tacos.

Saw a roach on the cashier counter last time i was there! She literally squashed it in front of me and brushed it off the counter. WILL NOT BE EATING HERE EVER AGAIN!!!

If possible, I would give no stars at all! Last two times I’ve been there they charged me more. The young cashier (owners daughter) thinks people doesn’t notice when she charges $ 1.00 for a piece of bread that costs 60 cents! Beware people! Check your receipt before leaving and go back if you need to! I hope the owner reads this and tells his daughter to stop doing this or someone else will call Consumer Reports!!! I already did!

I purchased a ceviche that tasted unusual. I called to notify about it, and they won’t even try to exchanged, refund, or give a store credit.
This very poor way to handle business.

Interesting little neighborhood bodega and bakery with a surprisingly good selection of fresh meats with an on-​site butcher, the burger was some of the best tasting I have had and cooked up nice with some onions and mushrooms.
Sadly my second visit resulted in some less than fresh desserts, stale and very dry. Think it might have been due to a loss of power on the bakery side today.
Prices are a bit higher like your typical mini-​mart mind you so you can’t do all your shopping here but if you don’t want to leave your den you can make a dinner with the selection available, mind you many of the items are Hispanic food stuffs but there is a small selection of fresh vegetables, fruits etc.
They also have a small kitchen with the standard Mexican staples to go, or enjoy at one of the few tables scattered in front.

Seriously best place for bread!!! All week I came back everyday for some empanadas sooo good just wish the cashiers were faster took me 20 min to pay for 3 breads smh

Wow! I’m very impressed with this place. They have a little bit of everything. 1) They make/​sell cakes, and have a variety of freshly baked Mexican bread 2) they have a small taqueria 3) they have a small grocery and produce section as well 4) they sell all the regular Mexican candy and popscicles too. This is probably the cleanest and most organized specialty store I’ve ever been to. It seems to be the only panaderia in town –I may be wrong.

This place is GREAT.
I order steak burrito’s and cheese quesadilla’s here and let me tell you this is home-​town authentic mexican food. The staff is a bit serious but they make up for it in the quality of their home made mexican food and mexican breads.
Summary:
Authentic Mexican Food

Early Hours (if you’re craving a burrito in the morning)
Solid 4 Stars

My favorite dive supermarket in Antioch. No relation to the Mi Pueblo market chain. This place is tiny and family owned. Looks like a corner market straight out of Mexico and the food and goods are just like in Mexico. They have fresh fruit, a taqueria, bakery, and panaderia.
The bakery sells custom dulce de leche cakes and masa for tamales. They also have a fridge with a small selection of fresh salsas and ceviche.
The panaderia is amazing! If I was rating this place just as a panaderia I would give it 5 stars. The sweet breads, cookies, and rolls are delish, way better than Mi Pueblo’s. The bread is made fresh daily, super fluffy and not too greasy! Reminds me of Las Montañas in Concord.
The place is tiny and a bit disorganized. The good news is you can get through the whole thing in seconds and the staff are very helpful.
Sidebar– parking is very limited so park on the street in short term parking. Even though there is only one register you will be in and out in no time.

I just ordered a carne asade burrito earlier. To tell you the truth, I think this place is way over rated.
For the most part when ever you need a burrito for lunch you can pick it up at 5am here. I like this place because they’er open from 5am-​9pm.
Finding parking is kinda difficult, lucky I came at a decent hour in the morning and was able to park down the block around the corner in a safe residential area.
I’m just rating it 3 stars from off of the burrito I ordered and what everybody else was raving about here.

Authentic tacos. Tacos are $ 1 each. Had Al Pastor and Chorizo. Great taste great price.

After moving home from SoCal and just buying my first house in downtown Antioch I was looking for a rocken tauqrea. So I say this place several times and, being that I’m a wheto I was a little concerned, but I had smelled the grilling that they did on the side walk lots of times so I bought the bullet and tried it. This place is a small Mexican grocery store with a meat market; produce market, and BAD ASS food. I had the asada tacos and the pastor tacos and my buddy had a quesadilla, I can’t take him any ware, and all of it was good. This place is better than any place in San Diego and cheaper than them as well. I may be white and not fit in but the people were cool and the food was amazing. I am going back and I will be the only wheto in the joint for quite some time.

If you ever craved mexican small tacos with tasty meat, onions, cilantro. and pineapple bits… this is the place! The tacos al pastor are to die for! Al pastor, is essentially slow roasted pork which is then fried crispy with pineapple.
The tacos are $ 1 each! I have only tried their tacos, but they have a full menu offering burritos and other popular items.
They also have a store with various hispanic items, a bakery and fresh meat and seafood. Since they opened I’ve been visiting at least once a week. Can’t beat a tasty $ 5 lunch. 4 tacos and a drink!
