Taco Fresco Burgers & Fries Continues to Amaze!

Even Better Than We First Thought!

As we posted here, in the Search for the Best Crispy Fried Tacos in South Sacramento, Taco Fresco Burgers & Fries - on Florin Road just east of Power Inn Road - took the early lead.  Their crispy fried fish and shrimp tacos, with freshly made corn tortillas (you can watch them make them!), and then fried until puffy, with delicate fish or shrimp, and their own sauce, set the high standards for deliciousness and freshness.  I just haven't found any tacos like this anywhere else in Sac Town.

But we put those tacos in their own category - fish and shrimp - tacos, because that's how they are listed on the menu at Taco Fresco.  In other words, the other tacos at Taco Fresco, with carnitas, beef, and chicken, are offered on the menu with the soft - non-fried - corn tortilla.

We returned to Taco Fresco the other day to verify our belief, and to our pleasant surprise, we discovered that we were wrong.  So to clarify:  The amazing crispy fried tacos at Taco Fresco Burgers & Fries are available with any filling they have, such as fish, shrimp, as well as beef, pork, and chicken!   All you have to do is ask.  People, these tacos are incredible.  For one thing, where else do they make their own corn tortillas?  Why there isn't a line out the door here is beyond me.

Here's some pics of their fluffy fried tacos, one with carnitas and the other with chicken.  Note the generous servings of cheese.

It gets even better.  As you can see, we also ordered a torta with carnitas, and  . . .

Our minds and taste buds were completely blown.  It was delicious!  The bun and carnitas by themselves would have been tasty and filling, but as you can see, the torta also has fresh avocado, jalapeno, lettuce, and tomato.  I think I would rather get one of these than a sandwich at Togos, or Subway - and I do love my Subway tuna fish sandwich on Fridays.  But check out this offering from Taco Fresco:

Size comparison.  Two tacos and one torta (cut in half).  This hearty sandwich will fill you up.

Taco Fresco also has a pick-up window for telephone orders.

In our search for the best crispy fried tacos in South Sac, Taco Fresco Burgers and Fries is the clear front runner.  But we are ditching the larger chain restaurants to investigate the smaller establishments like Taco Fresco.  We suspect there are other taquerias out there in South Sac that will pleasantly surprise us.  And we are determined to find them!

There is so much delicious food down in here in South Sac, thanks to this region's diversity, that we are in awe.
