About El Molinito

El Molinito is a Mexican restaurant that offers generously portioned and delicious food at reasonable prices. The restaurant is known for its overstuffed and tasty tacos, hot enchiladas, and some of the best refried beans in town. The bean tostada is a meal in itself, and the never-ending complimentary chips are a highlight. Customers often praise the salsa, chimi's, and tacos, and some mention the prickly pear margaritas as a must-try. The service can be inconsistent, but many find the staff friendly and attentive, with some servers like Marysol being especially thoughtful and making the dining experience enjoyable. The restaurant's interior could use some updates, but it remains a good option for authentic Mexican cuisine, especially for groups. Takeout orders are consistently fresh and complete, with staff ensuring accuracy before leaving the restaurant. Despite some changes in management and possible shifts in dish quality, El Molinito continues to provide a pleasant dining experience for many customers celebrating special occasions or simply enjoying a flavorful meal.
