Reviews
This is one of my go to places for tacos. They are delicious. I enjoy both the steak and chicken and eat here at least once a month. I do wish they had chips and salsa but still so good. I do not speak Spanish so sometimes there is a communication issue but everyone is super nice.
Milagrito is all of the following: Mexican grocery, bakery, deli counter, and restaurant. The restaurant we did not try but is right beside the grocery store. The deli is all the way in the back and looked quite small. The bakery items are in the back as as well in a case. They did not offer a huge selection of bakery items but I think there were enough selections for a grocery place that is on the small side. Upon entering on a Saturday at 4pm, I could smell the bakery items and it smelled so divine I had to try one. It seems they were restocking the bakery shelves with fresh goodies because a guy came from the back with a huge tray of baked goods. I had what looked like a rectangular cake with two layers with a thin layer of jelly between the layers. It had pink sugar on top. It was slightly warm so that's a good sign. It was soft and not too sweet but sweet enough. Since it was such a huge slice, I had some left over the next day and it was still soft. Also bought some limes (6 for $1) and some spicy mango lollipop candy. Spent around $3.
I happened upon this restaurant literally by accident. It was July 4th, didn't want to go to El Patron, because I had them before and they were just ok. "Mexican" restaurants that were closer were closed because of the holiday. So I called this place to see if I could place an order. Now, they lady who answered the phone didn't speak English, which was no problem because 1) I knew this was probably authentic cuisine and 2) because it was close by and I could check out the menu. So the restaurant is adjacent to a grocery store. Nothing super fancy, and we placed our order to go. The woman who helped us was FANTASTIC. She didn't speak English and the menus were in Spanish but she patiently pointed out the options via the pictures. I know enough Spanish to get through key words like pollo, chorizo, etc. So ordering was not the hard part and the cashier was super sweet. The price was relatively low too. I got two entrees (quesadilla - chicken, and one with chicken and chorizo, they came with salad), an order of guacamole, chips, and fried plantains all for $30. So once we got home and tasted our food OMG. First of all you get a ton of food. The chicken and beef were tender and well seasoned, not hard stuff you get at most Mexican restaurants. This is a Salvadoran food by the way to be clear. Please get the chips which are crispy and fluffy and the guacamole I could still see avocado bits. Just as a side I liked the chorizo quesadilla. And plantains are my absolute favorite and these came with a dessert sauce on the side. Please go here! Work on your Spanish and enjoy the best Salvadoran food in Fredericksburg. Kick the other places like El Partron and Mexico Palace to the side. This food is authentic.
