Navigate El Dorado Hills' Mexican food scene with Restaurantji's recommendations.
“This restaurant is goooood!!! Food is great.. service was very kind, and accommodating. Pack great place to grab a bite or sit with some friends. I had an opportunity to utilize my Spanish here an even though it was broken they still were understanding an worked with me.“
“Beautiful interior decoration and wonderful music. Good waiter, but didn’t check on us often enough. The food was flavorful and delicious (portions were a little small for the price but wasn’t that bad). Nice menu options.My biggest gripe is the drinks. Awesome drink menu and expensive cocktails but it took forever to get my drink and it was NOT garnished and therefore didnt look like the picture. If I’m paying $14 for a drink, I expect it to look beautiful and as pictured. But it did taste good. Just looked like it cost $7 not $14.“
“I found myself back in the suburbs of upper north El Dorado Hills. I was with a group of hungry peeps. We wanted something yummy, moderately priced, casual counter service, plentiful & easy accessible parking and large enough to comfortably accommodate eight of us. El Favorito Taqueria hit the mark. I have dined here before.On my last visit, the service was friendly. The cashier was super helpful. Our orders came out fairly quickly and close together. So no awkward moment of waiting for that one last order. I ordered the steak rancho plate with flour tortillas. I debated between that and the carne asada plate. The cashier explained the difference. The steak rancho is the asada sliced with jalapeños, tomatoes, and onions while the asada was unsliced pieces served without any vegetables. The steak rancho was tasty. They weren't kidding about the jalapeños... there were lots of 'em. But the asada slices were a hodgepodge of sizing. Lots of tiny chopped pieces more suitable for a taco than a plate setting. Those were placed on the bottom and more suitable for spoon scooping than using a fork to eat. Other items that I have had here is the menudo, which they serve with crispy tostado shells; and asada tacos. This food is ok.The complimentary chips are self serve. They were light and crisp. But not too thin to fall apart after biting into them. Darn good chip! The salsa bar had quite a few options. I was absolutely digging the sliced cucumber and red onions seasoned either tajin. Salty, lime, and mild chile pepper flavors. Yum. Plus that red salsa ... fill 'er up, that's some good stuff!“
“I visited Papi's Kitchen because I learned that they also cater. While visiting the food truck I had a couple of their street tacos. WOW, WOW, WOW!!! They were delicious. After checking out a couple of catering businesses, I decided to hire Papi's Kitchen for my husband's Celebration of Life reception. I cannot say enough good things about them. They were prompt, courteous, customer service oriented, their food was outstanding and they made sure they had more than enough for all the guests. They made a big impression on my guests and many of them went back for seconds. Also, when they left their area was spotless! I highly recommend Papi's Kitchen for any event you may have, and of course, look up their schedule and visit them for lunch.“
