La Jarochita Taco Shop

When we walked in the first time and were the only native English speakers in the place I knew we'd hit a winner. We visited for lunch 3 times over the 9 days we were in Red Bay for motorhome service and it will be a multiple visit go-to next time we're in Red Bay. They only serve food Wed, Thur, Fri, and Sat.

I grew up in North Texas, spent a few years in Albuquerque, and we spent a few more years in Mexico City. I know the difference among the varieties of "Mexican" food, and this place is legit Mexico City fare and flavors.

The tacos are straight-up Mexico City street tacos (pastor and cachete - cheek - are awesome). The empanadas are different, but very, very good. The menudo was good, but the (off menu) posole was dead on copy of what I used to eat in Mexico City. The torta (sandwich) was awesome with authentic bread. My wife eats a lot of seafood and declared the shrimp soup "memories of Mexico".

I'm so glad I stopped. The restaurant is a combination of restaurant and also offers some Mexican groceries. Everyone was very friendly and the place was spotlessly clean.
I tried a few different things on their menu and while everything was very good, the gorditas and tamal were absolutely phenomenal. I've eaten many of both in different places but these here will stand out in my memory for years to come.
Highly recommend.

This is an amazing place. Mrs. Patti is the best. The food is out of this world good and the service is beyond exceptional!

I only had ice cream on this day but it was very good. Mrs. Patti (the lady who runs the store) is a very sweet and kind woman. She made me feel right at home. My boyfriend is taking me back on another day to try the food and I am sure it will be delicious.

Very Inexpensive and most of all Delicious. Some of THE BEST MEXICAN FOOD I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME

I will be back. Great food!

I live in San Antonio, where great Mexican food is abundant. I’d rank this place up there with my favorite taquerias. Legit, freshly made, delicious.

Great store with an amazing restaurant. They sell all kinds of mexican brand products.This place sells authentic Mexican food that you would not find in any other Mexican restaurant. You can call and order to take out or you can come in the store and enjoy the food there.

Great place for authentic Mexican food. You pay per item so it can add up, but its worth every penny.

Amazing food and wonderful people! The food is auntentic, cooked by experienced Mexican cooks. In addition, the restaurant has a small store that sells authentic Mexican products, food, and everyday items. Highly recommend!

Restaurant is also a grocer. Menu is al cart, adds up quickly, and delicious.

Very nice shop. Very nice staff. Plenty of good items and food.

We LoVe this pace and depending on how long we are the area we try to come in once or twice a week.

Out of this world AUTHENTIC tacos! Much better than the bigger Mexican restaurant on the next block.
