In Southern California, we have more Mexican food than we know what to do with. My family and I have been eating at Cenote for years. Absolutely delicious, high-quality and the service continues to be excellent! Thank you to Russ and the incredible team at Cenote.

We sat there for almost an hour and didn't even get our drinks. The waitress, a girl with tattoos and a nasty scowl laughed at me after I told it was my mom's birthday. She lied and said we were there for only a half hour. The people behind us got their food and drinks, and they got there after. We left because they obviously forgot our food. Thanks for nothing.

Oh, and they don't like when people say anything to them about anything. Also, the toilets were disgusting.

Super great place.
Food is so good and menu is a real combination of standard and specialty items.
Their lettuce wraps are the best ever!

Shrimp burrito and belg white draft beer are really worth to taste.

We used to love this place, but it has gone downhill. The service is just terrible. They are so busy with take out orders that they neglect the sit-down customer. We have spent 2 inhours in there just to get a burrito. I think they changed the chef because the food is just ok where it used to be delicious. We have stopped eating there or recommending it.

We've always found this to be a great place with good service and consistently delicious food! Love their cilantro lime chicken salad.

Parking: Parking lot is shared with several other businesses, but it's usually not too bad.

Wheelchair accessibility: The front door is not an automatic open, but the door isn't overly heavy and will stay open when opened all the way. They've cleared the entryway more than it was years ago, so it is easier to move inside. There's also patio seating.

The food was good and the service was fine for a half service place, but it was very hot in the restaurant -- about 85°F.

The place is always busy which to me is a good sign!! The staff is very friendly and will let you know if it will be a wait for the food but it is worth it and the food is always top notch. We try to come a few times a month if we can. Love being able to support a local business.

Pork Chile con queso was amazing. They need to up their tequila game though.
