This is a sweet little taco joint in Monterey! I’ve eaten there twice and not been disappointed. They serve authentic Mexican tacos. It’s a little loud in there, but not bad, and the food is to die for!

Truly excellent food. I’ve had the large Tijuana-style plate and burritos and they are universally excellent. Staff is always cheerful and helpful. Great prices, too.

I recently visited Mission 19 Taqueria with my daughters for a nice dinner, and we had an amazing experience! I decided to try the Mission Plate, and it was absolutely delicious—so full of flavor that each bite was a delight. The highlight for me was the toppings bar, which offered a fantastic variety of salsas and hot sauces. It was so much fun to customize our meals!
The decor of the restaurant is vibrant and colorful, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that added to our overall enjoyment. The ambiance truly enhanced our dining experience, making it feel special.
If you’re looking for a place with great food and a lively atmosphere, I highly recommend visiting Mission 19 Taqueria. It’s definitely worth trying!

I’m originally from Mexico and I loved the tacos!!! The tortillas are hand made, they taste just like back home!
I ordered carne asada and pastor tacos.
To drink I got tamarind and it was super fresh, I really liked it!

The food and vibe here were so good that I went back for lunch the very next day! I wasn’t the only one, there were others saying the same thing. Taco Tuesday had a buy 2, get 1 free deal, so I tried the chicken tacos, and I absolutely loved their salsas. The staff is also really nice and friendly. A fantastic place overall. Highly recommend!!

Delicious street tacos everyday on home made tortillas. And on Tuesdays they’re buy 2, get 3! Just a perfect balance of savory meat, spicy sauces and brought lime squeezed on top. Wow! I had carne asada and pollo adobo this week with a Pineapple Jarritos. And did you see the cute flag on top?!

Only gave 1 star for food since we didn’t order. I’m sure the food is good. But they literally charge for everything. 1.00 for lettuce and they charge for cheese too. The tacos are already expensive and they’re only street tacos. We ended up leaving after we saw the total amount on the screen we placed the order on. Unreal!

I’m rating this place a 4 overall because I think, for most people, this food – and the service – will be a hit! My own experience of the food was less than that though because I’m a picky eater and I don’t like to be surprised by anything on my plate. I ordered the grilled chicken street taco without salsa or onions, and there were still a handful of onions on the taco let alone a sizeable slice of beef. In addition, there were some radishes and cucumbers on the plate that I didn’t expect (and don’t like!). I also prefer flour tortillas to corn, but wasn’t asked. Again, I share this review for others who were just born sensitive to textures and flavors like me – and not to disparage this restaurant. The service was great – folks checked in multiple times to see if I needed anything and the vibe was lively and happy. The food is clearly made with care and everyone else seemed to be greatly enjoying their dishes.
