Stopped in on Halloween afternoon for a bite to eat. Fast and attentive service from Amy. The food is very good. The margaritas are large, strong and very tasty. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Very comfortable atmosphere. The most like Mexico I’ve seen in Big Bear, like one of those places in old town San Diego. We will be back.

Was looking for a good meal before heading back home. Saw reviews and gave it a try. I was disappointed...It was not busy but our server didn't come by for awhile. The hostess went to ask...order was taken and it took awhile as well to be served. The coke was flat. The flavor of the food was okay. Idk if this was an off day at this restaurant but at least they took off the soda from the order as a courtesy. I also thought the food was pricey; $18 for a torta 😲

Very fun, welcoming restaurant in Big Bear. Came with my family and we loved the chips, salsa, and generous portions of the entrees. They also have a pretty vast beer selection, especially if you like Mexican cervezas!
The food was excellent - I ordered the triple fajitas (shrimp, chicken, and steak) and enjoyed the shrimp the most. The caramelized onions / peppers were divine!
They have a delicious standard salsa roja, and a super spicy red as well. Everything was delicious and we could totally see ourselves coming back some day.

Enjoyed our food. Waitress was a little slow due to only her having to work all the tables.

We were disappointed with the service. We walked in but didn’t know where to go, there was no one to greet us, no sign. A customer told us to wander and someone would find us. ?!? Once seated, our waitress was distracted with children in the next room. The nachos were a little greasy for me. We loved the atmosphere of the place and hope this was all one off.

Staff was welcoming and friendly with a smile. The drinks were perfect as well for the food except the wings. Unfortunately wings were too greasy and rushed to cook. If BOH can put an effort on garnishing the meals at least with color it would make it great presenting to the guest. (Paper wrap/ edible flowers/ or micro cilantro) Kudos to our server who was helpful and on top of service. Sat. Sept 6 8pm

I did a take out taco bar at Sonora Cantina for one of my Quilt Retreats in April 2025 and again Sep 25. Both times excellent food, well packed and ready to set up! Ordering was a breeze and Maria is wonderful!
