Very good food

The best carne asada! Make sure you have TouchTunes installed on your phone before you come.

The food is really good but the atmosphere is not. There are almost no windows and it gives off major dive bar vibes. Which would be fine but it doesn’t really make a lot of sense. They have a nice and fancy dining area on the left. But on the right is where they seat everyone. They easily have the best Mexican food in town. But there are always people here who are too drunk to even walk straight who are obnoxiously loud and they will harass other customers. The food is great. Their mixed drinks are great. Most of them are 9 dollars a but everytime I’ve been here and ordered a draft beer it was between 15 and 17 dollars which doesn’t make sense. The ridge creek golf course has the same beers for 4-6 dollars.I really love their food but their lack of windows and their obnoxious customers who harass everyone make this place less desirable than it should be. It’s a great place to bring social young adults who don’t mind the drunk people starting fights and screaming the lyrics of songs at 2 pm on a weekday. But it’s sad how they have such great food while their environment is what drives others potential customers away. Everything on their menu is fantastic but they need to do something to address the unruly regulars and having 0 regular sized windows in their entire restaurant. I’ve never been unhappy with their food, but 75 percent of the time I come here I have to deal with their regulars who are incredibly obnoxious and rude

My Daughter witnessed a COOK go into the restroom and left WITHOUT WASHING HER HANDS!!!! And when I told the cashier, she had ZERO care in the world about it, not even an apology. So UNSANITARY!!!!!!

The food here is freaking delicious! I got the Chile Verde burrito. It was big, had sour cream and guacamole on it, and ultimately it was just really good. The service was good too. It was a little cramped, but that could just be because we brought our child in a stroller there, as he was sleeping at the time. But this is no fault of the restaurant. My sister got the queso birria, and I tried it and it was Delicious too. This place was a great find for us as it was on the way to the mountains and we had never been there before.

Place is located in the Center of Dinuba at the edge of the main road. One of the dining area is where the bar is and it is fairly open. Service was polite, quick and professional. Attention was average. My campechana was nothing to brag about. The imitation crab was an interesting texture, that could been caused by it being frozen more than once.

First timer here. The food was served fresh and hot. Service was on point. The ambiance was warmth with culture.

I went there yesterday. Over all I just didn't like the service. I was very hungry when I got there and they never took my order till about 30min it was not packed as all. Had to ask for some chips because they never brought them. The food was good though. Oh and they never ask if I needed a refill and I'm a big soda drinker. Over all I didn't leave a tip because I left Hella thirsty

I am in town on a work-related trip and was looking for a good place to grab a dinner. I went in about 8 and while the service was good, the food left a lot to be desired. For starters, I ordered a $20 shrimp plate which came with a measly 6 shrimps. While I know mariscos are expensive in general, I've never seen a skimpier plate. The rice was also lacking. I almost think they may have been on their last batch and just didn't want to wait to make more or didn't have more due to the time. 6 shrimp for $20 is almost criminal. Also, the flavor was not good. As I said, the service was good, however, the food is not. If you're looking for a well-served plate, you won't find it here.

I ordered the angel hair pasta with fresh tomatoes and basal. I have never had so much garlic in one dish. I kid u not there was a full head of garlic in my dish. So do not order the pasta if u don't really, really like garlic!I couldn't eat but a few bites ?

Great micheladas. I would rate more stars if they opened up on time...

Went to safari club and loved everything about it. I'm very picky when it comes to restaurants and service and they had some of the best service in Tulare county. Server was attentive and everything came out fast. The michelada was authentic and had the perfect blend of spicy and sour. I also had the Carne Asada pizza and the meat was seasoned well, tender and tasted fresh. The pizza could easily be shared so for 13 bucks it was a steal. I would have never thought to put carne asada on a pizza, but it worked really well. My friends ordered the birria tacos and shrimp tacos and they both looked amazing. I am definitely coming back.
