Mothers Tacos: Authentic Mexican Flavors in Napa

A friend had been wanting us to go for many years now. Tried it, finally. I wish I had sooner. My Danish cousins would have loved it. The food is fresh, homemade tortillas. The fresh made horchata (rice, cinnamon drink) was a stand out. The food is filling. Some of the dishes could use a little more seasoning, as weren’t as flavorful as they appeared. We enjoyed it and will be back.

AMAZING. Was recommended this place by a friend and it did not disappoint. Really cool build out, honestly similar to In n Out but cooler. Highly recommend the Frozen Paloma if you’re going to drink. Menu rotates but I got a few different tacos and they were all incredible, recommend getting the fried quesadilla version. The cheese taco shell version was a little too much for me. They give you a tray of their house salsas and they are all incredible. One of them has a rare chile I forget the name but it was really good. Tortillas are handmade in house, so fresh and light. Fish taco was really good the fish was fried really lightly but still super crispy. Will definitely be back next time I am in Napa.

We had an amazing dinner at Mother’s Tacos in Napa! The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful — the corn tortillas were unbelievably soft, and the pescado taco was the clear champion of the night. The salsas were vibrant and packed a punch, and the whole vibe was relaxed and fun. Loved the outdoor seating and great ambience. Highly recommend!

The food was fantastic. Totally recommend the al pastor taco. It reminded me so much of the ones I had in Puerto Vallarta. The chips were so tasty. Loved the other tacos we got as well. Chorizo and the Pica Rico were so good. If you like a little spice get pica rico. Horchata was also good

Whoa, I'm so glad I finally decided to try this place! I ordered the lengua taco that's only available on the weekends, and it was delicious and tender. I also tried a cheese shell taco with chicken. What a great way to make it keto! My husband had carnitas and carne asada. He loved his as well. I will be back for sure.

Loved the Al pastor and fish tacos. The steak and the mushroom tacos werent that good. Their mother's Mexican lager from East brothers brewing was wonderful!! Cilantro was a bit much. One of my go to spots for Al pastor and fish tacos.

I really enjoyed this food! It was strange not having an obvious menu (paper menus are by the entrance) and not having anyone at the counter for several minutes, so I was starting to regret choosing to come here. However, once I started eating the food, all was forgiven. Everything was extremely flavorful, though the pica rica was quite a bit spicier than I expected! While the tacos were excellent, I’d probably stick with the mulitas next time since they were phenomenal. I would come back here if I visited Napa again!

This is a hidden gem. We were on our way back from Napa, had a craving for fish tacos and found this place. It did not disappoint. The fish was fried to perfection, tacos were home made and the homemade salad were amazing. If I had the appetite I'd have eaten more! Staff are friendly and the place is basic but the food is what you're here for. Nothing else.
