Tacos Ensenada's menu is a delightful celebration of traditional Baja California flavors, offering an authentic taste of Mexico right in El Monte. The restaurant’s fish tacos are undoubtedly a standout, featuring crispy battered fish topped with fresh cabbage, a drizzle of tangy crema, and a generous squeeze of lime, all nestled in a soft corn tortilla. Another must-try is their shrimp tacos, which are perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection, offering a smoky, savory flavor profile that pairs wonderfully with the crunchy slaw and salsa.
For those craving something a little different, the carne asada fries offer a hearty option. Loaded with tender marinated steak, melted cheese, guacamole, and sour cream, it’s a satisfying dish that’s as indulgent as it is delicious. The baja burrito is another delicious choice, wrapped in a warm flour tortilla with your choice of protein, beans, rice, and a variety of fresh toppings, creating a flavorful and filling meal that perfectly captures the essence of Baja cuisine.
Don’t miss out on their fish ceviche either – a refreshing, zesty dish that combines perfectly chopped fish, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and a citrusy marinade that adds just the right amount of brightness to your meal. For those who prefer something light, the tacos de pollo asado (grilled chicken tacos) are a flavorful and satisfying option, with tender chicken pieces, crisp toppings, and a smokey finish.
Every dish on the menu speaks to the heart of Baja’s culinary tradition, with vibrant, bold flavors that make it clear why Tacos Ensenada has become a local favorite.
