This place gets a terrible score of -2/10 on the Milford Meal Measurement Matrix, which is based on feel and the thickness of the gravy, unlike Gilbert’s fake scale. Let me be clear: I arrived hungry and ready for a feast fit for my legend. Instead, I got what can only be called edible disappointment wrapped in paper. As a man of size, I ordered a fair amount: 7 tacos, 5 burritos, 2 trays of beef super nachos, and a gallon of milk to help swallow it all. Within minutes, I faced what some might label a “catastrophic cheese cascade” right onto my stomach. Not once. Not twice. Seven times. Seven separate cheese losses. I had to lean forward in a panic to save the fallen cheese like a warrior retrieving comrades. The burritos? Weak and lifeless. When I bit in, there was a tragic absence of squelch. A burrito should have a presence. It should make a statement. This one barely whispered. I tried to squeeze it for the juices, but they ended up splattering on my shirt and thigh. Ridiculous. The beef super nachos were enough for a family of 6, maybe 7 if they skip breakfast. For me? That’s just a light snack. I blinked and they were gone. My hunger stood strong like a monument. Then came the real insult. I greeted the staff with my usual respectful “Howdy partner,” but they looked at me as if I had challenged them to a duel. No nod. No respect. No acknowledgment of my serious approach to dining. When I offered my Home Depot bucket for refills—a perfectly reasonable choice—they turned me down. Turned me down. As if trying something new were a crime. I will give them one thing: the tacos were acceptable. The grease flowed like a sacred river of seasoning leading straight to destiny. But one good item doesn’t save a failing meal. In summary: cheese let me down, burritos were lacking, nachos misjudged my appetite, and the staff showed no hospitality. Even a roadside vending machine with a grudge would have treated me better. Gilbert may put up with this nonsense, but Milford Meal does not.

The best fast food Mexican restaurant ever!! I love this place so much. The employees are awesome. The food is better than many much higher priced locals. I wish they catered. Every time I am in Auburn. Whether I am hungry or not, I eat here. I my hunger wishes they were in Roseville. My waistline thanks them for not being here. I would be addicted. Well done! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❤️

Third time in a row we’ve driven up to Auburn from Loomis for the super nachos only to get home to find there was maybe only one table spoon of the nacho cheese on a carton full of chips. This use to be the best place for nachos, not anymore, really sad, time to find a new place after 20 years.

Oh Taco Tree, I’ve been a customer since before T-Swift was born. Yup, for that long. What keeps me coming back to this local Auburn fast food joint are those darn simple classic tacos and bunless tacos. Simply tasty.
The tacos shells are hard shell pre made. They have a cathartic crunch. The ground beef is drained well, so no oily drippy mess. The tacos are filled with meat, shredded lettuce and cheese. Layered in that order. For folks wondering what the heck is a bunless taco, wonder no more. A bunless taco is their taco fillings served in a hamburger bun. Ohh I was also a big eater of their nachos, but my cheesy nacho eating days are behind me. But if yours aren’t, give theirs a go.
Gotta mention, sure this place and me have experienced our off days with each other… like the time they sold me tacos with stale shells and the other time with smashed shells. But those anomalies occur rarely, like 1 in 50. Not a bad average.

Food is way less quality and quantity than they used to be. Sad to see an Auburn icon fall from the golden throne of “must haves” to go hum. Super burritos used to be bursting at the seams but has the same feel as the old bean and cheese burrito, the nacho plus used to cover the container ,even in swap style, and now I can see 1/3rd of the container bottom. I get that things are expensive now but when your upping your prices galore and lowering your quality it hurts a true Auburnite such as myself. This place was the exception to fast food but has become a taco bell without the marketing. Not trying to be mean but have dined at this place for the last 28 years and the downfall is most obvious! It is a to go joint but those of us that are locals remember the quality and abundance that came from Taco Tree and we are now sorely missing those days. New transplants and passers though will not know the joy of the true taco tree! We used to be friends and now I’m hurt deeply, lol.

I always swing by with my kids after school and usually we get an older lady who is ALWAYS super nice. Today we came across a lady with curly hair let me say very very unprofessional, the customer service not there at all. It seemed she was more uncomfortable by customers actually bringing business to this restaurant, since the moment she took the order to the moment she just opened the window saying the total not even a hello or a greeting. My self working at the customer industry her attitude was very nasty…

The hours are posted on the door, I walked in slightly after four, it said they closed at 6 on the main door, drive thru still open, but I couldn’t get anything as I had walked there, chains on the doors… Not acceptable to me. Even on NYE, this didn’t feel right.
