Great burritos. Same price as a Chipotle and right down the road. Be prepared to know at least a little Spanish lol

Review for El Fortin Restaurant (Fullerton, CA)
I had a terrible experience here. Roughly around 8 PM today I ordered the mole negro plate and not only was it poorly prepared, but it made me physically sick—I ended up vomiting afterward. I couldn’t even finish my drink or the mole plate because the food was just that unappetizing. I expected authentic Oaxacan flavors, in addition, I also saw a cockroach on the floor next to where I was eating. I instead got something that tasted off and felt unsafe to eat. Definitely not coming back and wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

The food was delicious. We had a lot of food, tlayudas, guacamole, nopalitos caldo de pollo, chile relleno, enchiladas, champurrado, and gorditas. Everything was made fresh and we enjoyed it.

I ordered the stuffed chile cake and it was delicious. The price is good like 11 dls The waitress was not friendly but not rude either. Like he didn't care if you were there. What I didn't like is that they have clothes hanging up in a corner, it's not hygienic even though it's new. It's not a pretty look. It is also full of decorations and makes the place look smaller. It needs new decoration and the furniture cleaned.

A small but cozy place, a total Mexican experience, the decorations and food are exemplary. The service is relatively good, you feel the humility but perhaps the lack of experience in customer service makes them sometimes not pay attention to you and ignore you. There is no bathroom inside the place which is somewhat annoying if you come with the intention of washing your hands or going to the bathroom. a small but cozy place, a total experience of Mexico, the decorations and food are exemplary.

Very good service and very delicious food, widely recommended, you will not regret it

Good food but they offered tortilhas and then charged extra for that - i did not ask for, so I just accept because I thought it was included on my plate. At the end the bill was 25% more expensive because of that.

The restaurant is a small mom and pop traditional home style cooking, comfort food from the Oaxaca State of Mexico with freshly made cooking and tradition feel. Just don't come expecting to be served your food right way since it will take some time to get a table during lunch time and great tasty food with great taste takes time. My favorite dish is the Enchiladas de Mole and the Tlayuda Especial also the Tamale Oaxaqueño with Tepache
