Was looking for a Mexican restaurant that served as close to authentic food as possible. It was good. No fancy swirls with sauces and molded rice. Just Mexican food 😋

Went in to have dinner after going to the farmers market and no one brought a menu or took our drink order for 10 minutes and it wasn’t very busy. So we left and had a great dinner with excellent service at Madera across the street.

Great food and service. It's a little awkward when they hand you the credit card screen and the options for tipping start at 20% and go to 35%.

This is the place to go to in Fullerton for authentic delicious Mexican food like mama or abuelita used to make! From the chips and salsa to the entrees. The place is inviting and the service was excellent. Well done Farolitos!

Inauthentic Mexican food. Food is average at best and service is subpar. Our guacamole was literally just mashed avocados w a hint of lime. Beans seem to be straight out of the can. Definitely would not recommend.

Heading there later

Took a look at the menu. Everything looks generic, inauthentic, and overpriced. If you want pricier but great Mexican food, go to Taqueria Ditroit in the LA arts district or one of two Sonoratown locations in LA. This place is sadly grasping at any business it can attain. They have Mexican pizza on the menu. Being from two disparate parts of Mexico, there are no Mexican pizzas.

The only thing I ate were the greasy totopos (tortilla chips) and the spicy tomato puree they called salsa. The totopos were fried but not spread to drain the oil when cooled.

After consulting with the server, I got the big caddy margarita. They said it was not very sweet. I taste more simple syrup than anything. I can drink tequila straight. This tastes like nothing but sugar. Sent it back. They tried gaslighting me into thinking all margaritas were this sweet. I unfortunately know how to mix one from my restaurant day and ordered it at several bars/restaurants. They kindly remade with the sweet components sided.

Amazing place and people
