California Burrito Taco Shop

Great place for fast authentic Mexican food. If you’re looking to get your fix but don’t have time for a sit down joint and not too much money, this place is a great alternative. Try their yummy carne asada fries. So good!

Best carne asada burritos! The tortilla is so soft and taste like they’re home made and the meat is so juicy. I’ve also had the veggie burrito and it’s all just as delicious. You can tell the ingredients are all fresh made.
Plus the best part about it… They are open ²⁴⁄₇!

Best place for real Mexican food for half the price. U get more for what u pay for and remind me of California Mexican food.(the real deal) I love Mexican food and very picky on it. U get one shot with me only. if u mess up on my order or even if your idea of a Mexican dish is not up to par .No chance for me coming back. This place got me coming back a few time. I believe this place use to be call memo and the other one is in Everett. It’s the same food both place and I go to both place often when I’m around the neighborhood. Very Yummy!!! It’s a must try… memo and California burritos is two of the best Mexican food in the Washington state area. Next best is Taco Bell and all the rest that I try is not even close… Keep it up u guys. Good job!!!

Went from 5 stars to 1 star…
The man didn’t give our debit card back during the drive thru
… If you guys purchase here make sure to ask for card back, that’s all I have to say

This review is for two visits: 11÷13÷15 & 11÷30÷15. First visit, ordered the spicy pork burrito. It’s a big burrito and price is very good. Under $ 6. Salsa bar offers a few fresh red/​green salas and hot carrots. Tasty and filling. The restaurant is an old re-​puyrposed Taco Bell if I’m not mistaken. Fairly straight forward. Some odd characters hanging around but otherwise OK.
Second visit got the Washington burrito at the drive through. Came with a small red and green sauce. It was a bit heavy. I ate the whole thing and felt like I needed a nap. Tasty, good value. I will go back.

This place is awful! The food is horrible and they get your order wrong! I ordered their fake «Washington burrito» which has carne asada, cheese and potatoes but guess what they forgot to put the potatoes! I also added guacamole and sour cream but they gave me guac. No sour cream! How hard is it to take down orders?! Food is just as horrible as their service!

Heard about this place on Unilocal.It’s close to my house so took the kids for dinner. We have a lot of Latino friends who are amazing cooks so when our food came we were delighted. I had chili relleno beautiful and delicious. My kids had enchiladas and tamales. They loved the rice. Tamales were needing more meat and seasonings. The churros were perfect! I was still talking about them the next day.

Pretty good burritos, for being kind of like fast food. Would definitely choose this over Taco Bell and Taco Time. Probably the best thing about this place is that it is open 24 hours. And the Carne Asada Fries are pretty good, especially when you’re craving something late, or had a late night out and need something to eat before you go to bed and wake up with a terrible hangover.

This is the nearest place I can actually get good carne asada fries.
The carne asada fries comes with fries, steak, sour cream and guacamole. What’s different about theirs is they add refried beans which I really like. Then I drown it in their salsa verde sauce.
Their taco salad is good too! It comes with shredded braised beef, sour cream, guacamole, tomatoes, cheese and lettuce in a fried tortilla bowl.
The place is clean for the most part. But the staff is sometime stingy with their sauces when you order from the drive-​thru.

This place will always hold a special spot in my heart. It’s open 24 hours, which means it’s always good for a late night meal on a summer night with friends. The tortillas and salsa are made fresh every day! The salsa is great because you never know how hot it’s going to be — always a fun surprise. I usually just get a bean and cheese burrito and it’s enough for two meals. Great value, great taste!

Excellent food at and excellent price. Very quick but they keep their dining area like an ice box.

I promise I’m not being dramatic when I tell you that I was not a fan of burritos until I had a California Burrito. That’s years (decades!) spent avoiding burritos because of the filler rice and beans that I don’t care for. «More meat!» was my secret battle cry, as I opted for steak-​filled tacos and quesadillas.
Now, I’m a believer! California Burrito converted me with their California-​style carne asada burrito (forearm to finger tips in size!) made with ONLY meat and garnish. What?!? So much time wasted not knowing about these delicious meat bundles. Did I ever really live before?
Self-​serve pickled carrots. Open 24 hours.

Super delicious! Everything I’ve eaten there has been really good. My favorite has to be the Carne Asada Fries. However, the burritos are awesome as well — filled with meat! If it is your first time going — you MUST buy the Carne Asada Burrito — it is the best carne asada burrito in Western Washington! So much meat! The Washington Burrito is also a good choice for less-​greasy-​burrito lovers.

My boyfriend is from San Diego and this has become our go to for take out Mexican! His one issue is they call the California Burrito a Washington Burrito, but he still eats it. My favorite is the carne asada fries–
Although I wish the fries were a little crisper. But hey, it’s delicious Mexican that’s easy to get and relatively inexpensive.

Ordered a carne asana burrito (which I’ve eaten many times) at the drive through. The burrito was cold and tasted «off».
I didn’t think much of it until the cramping started soon after eating. I have been to the doctor now three times dealing with this intestinal nonsense that I got from this crappy spoiled food.
If you value your life, don’t eat here. This place is a dump that should be closed down.
Disgusting. There are sooooo many better taqueria options close with much better and after food.
Try those places. The life you save just might be your own.

After reading all the reviews that said this place is as close to SoCal Mexican food as you will find in Washington, I was hopeful but still skeptical. I’ve read those claims before and have wound up disappointed.
I’m happy to report that this is my new spot for Mexican food. The claims were true! It has just the right amount of «dirty» (a good thing) that I’ve been missing at all the other places.
Carne asada fries were tasty. They use skinny fries, like what you’d find at McDonalds (which is actually right next door). I would prefer thicker fries but that’s a minor quibble.
The Washington Burrito is a California Burrito. It’s a good size. There are grilled, diced onions in there. I don’t remember California Burritos having that but it’s a nice touch and the flavor was good.
I also ordered three rolled tacos with guac. The meat kept getting pulled out of the rolled taco with each bite so I was eating a lot of shell with leftover guac. That’s not a bad thing.
The lady who took my order was nice. She was helpful to the folks in front of me who got their orders confused. The food came out quick. I probably didn’t wait more than five minutes.
I will definitely be returning!

This place rocks. They serve breakfast burritos all day — and not those prepackaged, microwaved burritos that taste like plastic, either. They make them from scratch, the old-​fashioned way. The way they did it in the old country, if you will. Been going here since they opened and sure, it’s not the most classy joint but then again how classy do you want YOUR burrito place to be?! I cannot recommend the sausage egg and potato burrito enough, it’s delicious for both breakfast OR lunch — and when you order a large Coke you’re going to be presented with a huge styrofoam cup that harkens to days past, the type of cup that Al Gore would go into a grand mal seizure over. It’s a lot of Coke. But you’re going to need it, because their hot sauce lives up to the name. Been trying to get there all week between meetings and I think today is my lucky day…

Awesome!!! I use to live in southern California while stationed in the Navy and miss eating at real taco shops. This place kills them all! The Carne asada burrito is to die for and the Carne asada fries are amazing. Churros… the best. Can’t say enough about this place. Good food, great price, no disappointment. Just wish they were closer to home!

Take-​out sucks so I assume this place just sucks. I only went her because el rinconsito was closed.
I ordered 2 steak burritos with sour cream inside. I got home 2 miles away and opened the bag to find 2 cold burritos. Ok, maybe it was just the sour cream, but no it was everything. We decided to microwave them, but it still sucked. We both were only able to eat half. You’d think siracha sauce would make anything edible, but no.
The meat didn’t look like traditional steak you get from other Mexican restaurants. It was very light in color, very bland and tough. After having to microwave the burritos, it got too soggy and was hard to eat.
I should have went to McDonald’s or Taco Bell or at least get a edible microwave «The Bomb» and called it a night.

The Best outside of Yakima (in Eastern Washington) Mexican Food!
Their breakfast burrito is still the best. I had one this morning as shown in the picture. They have actual eggs and steak, which I ordered that also contained cheese and pico de gallo.
Good, tasty and the best!
What’s even better is. they are open 24 hours, so you can dive-​in anytime to try.
I also had their taquitos, nachos, tacos and chimichangas and they are all very good.
When you’re around the Des Moines/​Pac Highway area, stop by because if you miss it, you wouldn’t find anywhere else since Eastern Washington is 2 hours away for good Mexican Food!
Prices are good too.
