CC Taqueria

The food is amazing. I love their homemade refried beans. The rice is so fluffy with lots of flavor. Also, the salsa is nice and spicy. Jumbo shrimp with butter and cilantro is so worth it.

Best Mexican food in town! The chips and salsa are amazing and the burrito supreme is to die for! This is my go-to stop when I visit Tuolumne County.

Outstanding food and service. I had the asada chimi and it was wonderful! The portions are amazing and the chips.....wtf awesome! Staff being super friendly and attentive are a plus. I would give more stars if I could. Did I mention the food was awesome?!? The food was awesome....

Great place to pick up burritos to take up to our mountain cabin. Saves me cooking dinner. I'll be back on the regular.

Jamestown, CA is a small town located in the lower Sierra Nevada foothills, that is most famous for being home to Railtown 1897, a California State Park, that centers around a vintage railroad roundhouse operation from the late 1890's. You can ride a train pulled by a vintage steam engine most of the year, which will build an appetite, especially for Mexican cuisine. How about delicious Mexican cuisine? Check out CC Taqueria, located in Jamestown, CA... The menu is taped to the window near to the entrance door, and is the only printed menu you'll find. This is the "Combination" section of the menu, where I made my choice and placed my order. This is only one of several menu pages, as the restaurant offers a wide array of all your Mexican favorites. The dining room is very plain and the furniture is simply tables, but it's friendly and comfortable. Shortly after I was seated outside, my host, Luis brought out a basked of tortilla chips and a bowl of salsa, which made for a perfect appetizer. The corn tortilla chips were pretty typical of what you'll enjoy in practically every taqueria, and they were fresh, crisp, lightly salted and simply delicious. The salsa was on the dark side, sort of chunky, and chocked with robust flavor rather than heat. Simply delicious! I asked the staff about the salsa and they told me it is made in-house daily before the 07:00 opening time so you know it's fresh. If you're in the mood for delicious, fresh salsa, perfect for tortilla chip dipping, you've arrived at the right restaurant. From the "Combinations" section of the menu, I went with the "Soft Shell Taco" selection. My choice of meat was carnitas, which is marinated, shredded and grilled pork, cooked Mexican style. You enjoy a wide variety of meat, along with a veggie option, and you can choose between one to three tacos; I split the difference and went with two tacos. All "Combinations" come with a generous side of Mexican rice and refried beans, and make for perfect gold country dining. Talk about a beautiful presentation! Each taco began with two medium size corn tortillas, fried on the griddle so they were soft, yet they held together well. My meat of choice, a generous helping of carnitas, was roasted, shredded pork, lightly seasoned and cooked to bite-tender. Toppings included lots of pico de gallo, shredded Mexican cheese, along a generous dollop of creamy avocado. The tacos were based on medium size - not street size - corn tortillas, and each taco included a generous helping of carnitas and toppings. Not only were the tacos delicious, but they were LARGE and filling! I most likely could have simply ordered a single taco and I would have been good to go. At CC Taqueria, you won't leave hungry! The tacos were simply delicious! The tortillas and the meat arrived warm, the pico de gallo and avocado were chilled, and the shredded cheese had just a little bit of "melt." Like a quality hamburger, when your taco arrives with both hot and cold combined, you know you've hit the taco jackpot. I ordered from the "Combination" menu as I simply LOVE Mexican rice and refried beans, and I wasn't disappointed. Like the tacos, the portions of rice and beans were generous. The refried beans were simply delicious, as they were perfectly cooked with most of them soft and on the runny side, but with a few chunks to add contrast. Don't quote me, but I thought I could taste lard... or was it bacon grease? The beans were topped with melted Mexican cheese, which added a creamy and slightly tangy touch to these delicious beans. The Mexican rice was solid, cooked perfectly, and made for a great side dish, but like most rice served at Mexican restaurants, it was unremarkable. My lunch - which is actually a dinner item - was well-prepared, well-portioned ... may I say LARGE? ... and simply delicious. The only thing negative that I can say is I thought the carnitas were on the bland side, but everybody has a different taste, and maybe that was just "me." Great, solid Mexican Tuolumne County Mexican food... CC Taqueria, located in Jamestown. You gotta love CC Taqueria, as it's the only Mexican restaurant in Jamestown, but the friendly staff at CC don't take advantage of their monopoly - you could take a drive to nearby Sonora for more choices - and the staff will treat you like family, prepare delicious food, and offer friendly and excellent service. Oh yes... the dining is very comfortable too... Solid 5 Star dining in Jamestown, CA.
