El Forastero is a Mexican food haven in Sacramento, California, where every dish is a must-try. Their succulent Carnitas Tacos are a crowd favorite - tender, slow-cooked pork topped with tangy pickled onions and fresh cilantro, nestled in warm corn tortillas. For an explosion of flavors, indulge in the Enchiladas Verdes - tender chicken enveloped in a tangy tomatillo sauce and topped with melted cheese and a dollop of crema. The Chile Relleno is a delightful blend of roasted poblano pepper stuffed with savory cheese, dipped in a light egg batter, and smothered in a zesty tomato sauce. Don't miss out on the sizzling Fajitas, with marinated grilled steak or chicken served with warm tortillas, flavorful sautéed peppers, and onions. Lastly, the Tres Leches Cake is an absolute must-order dessert, velvety sponge soaked in three types of milk and topped with a luscious whipped cream frosting. El Forastero guarantees an authentic Mexican dining experience that will leave you craving for more.

Solid food for a reasonable price. The portions reminded me of years ago before Mexican food became the "it" food. Parking: Decent size parking lot.
When I come in today? I'm looking at the menu they have old menu above. When I ask about price, he says the new menu is behind him. I kind of said it won't maybe you should probably take the old Mini down in a nice way and he just looked at me. Food overpriced I think not really authenti think the beef is low budget. Rice, pretty good. Now I have more than half of my plate leaves. Cost 15 dollars, probably just give it to somebody who is hungry, sad, face, kind of disappointed.
I love this place best Mexican food around from their street tacos to their plates soo good. Their grilled chicken salad is do good if you are looking for a lighter dinner. Their El Forastero salsa is the bomb. … More
