    My family and I have been customers at La Piedsd for many years, we love the food and the service. It is a family business and try to make everyone feel like family. They are very welcoming and ensure that the customer is always happy. I always make vegetarian orders and they happily pack it up to go without hesitation or rude comments. They are very understanding about keeping my vegetarian order as separate as possible fromcmy family's order. Thank you La Piedad family and staff, happy holidays!!

    This place has that real Mexico feel to it and the food is bomb. I’ve only there twice but both times were good experiences. I would go more often if I lived in Fresno.

    Excellent excellent street tacos. I got buche, tripa, and asada. And they were all so tasty. Very cute seating all within an adorable Mexican market. Be sure to stop here

    Edit: i have gone again recently and the burritos seem larger then before which makes me glad. One thing tho is that they do offer a soda but is 2 dollars. The size is decent. If you eat there it should be fine. But made the mistake of thinking that 2 dollars allowed a refill. I was looking around didn't see anywhere saying no refills but i guess i should have asked. Kinda annoyed me but what can you do. Overall still a good place. I have been going to this place for years. It is near where I live and the place ways felt very welcoming. The food is great and the selection of groceries is small but decent. Great mexican variety. The people working there are great. Pretty sure most are bilingual. One thing that does bother me some is that the size of the burritos have gotten smaller while remaining the same price. I only order burritos from this place so of course that is what I notice. They used to be those big fat burritos that you are one And it filled you up so much. Now they are like the thin burritos from the frozen section. The taste is still amazing but that size factor is really making me reconsider ever buying burritos there again. Just a small thought. (Photos of burrito in review with size comparison to soda can.) Overall still a great place to go and get delicious food and maybe find something to take home for groceries.
