El Panal Carniceria

Wife and I were coming back from Nampa to Sacramento, long drive and needed something more than a greasy burger from a chain. Looked this place up and took a chance. We weren’t even sure we were at the right place because the exterior has a sign for a Mexican restaurant next door with a different name. But after we confirmed the address, we walked into this hole in the wall grocery store and ordered burritos. I got the barbacoa and wife got the asada with everything. Got the red salsa. Omg absolutely sensational. Probably best burrito I’ve ever had. And as a californian been to a million of these places and eat mexican all the time I was blown away. Meat was crazy tender and flavorful. Red salsa wickedly hot. All the flavors were hitting. Reminds me of the taco trucks I’d go to as a kid g

Best tacos, burritos, quesadillas and enchiladas in town. You won’t be disappointed! The ladies are so friendly, feels like family.

The owner is one of the kindest people I've ever met. The service is amazing and the food is amazing. The seafood burrito tastes amazing My personal favorites are the tamales when they have them They likewise have an amazing variety of ingredients that I can't find anywhere else(such as the types of fresh peppers) They also have an amazing variety of candy to choose from.

We had an amazing experience here as a lunch spot on a long road trip - highly highly recommend! There's no menu but just ask to order at the counter. We got carnitas, pastor, and lengua tacos, all delicious. Mayra and her father took great care of us and even threw in a side of chicken to our order as a thanks for stopping by. Do yourself a favor and eat here rather than a chain along the highway!

it is not a restaurant so don't expect to sit and eat. the food is very good 👍🏼 the burrito is huge and delicious. the workers are very friendly.
