“Driving back from Avila, we drove Highway 1, and we pass thru the town of Guadalupe, we stop close to a Market, and asked a resident couple were was the best place to eat? They recommended Nardo's for their great Menudo.
This family restaurant is a gem in Guadalupe: friendly service, home cooking taste, the portions were just right. I had Chilaquiles with Steak and 2 eggs, my wife had Menudo and delicious home made tortillas.
If you happen to drive thru Guadalupe, stop by this Restaurant, you will have an awesome meal.“

“Fantastic, clean, hole in the wall Mexican place. Had a chicken burrito, which was just fabulous. Fantastic flavor. We also had the chicken Mole, which was very good, I was wishing for a little sour cream, but that isn't the style there. Chips and salsa were complimentary, and excellent. Didn't get a rumbling tummy after, which is always welcome. Will be back.“

“Best burritos anywhere“

“These guys and gals are absolutely amazing. Get going with any of the staff, and you feel like you're talking to family. Just incredibly open and friendly.

The food here does indeed speak for itself. I'm partial to the crunch Barboca tacos, but it's all delicious.

They've kept the quality alive where most seem to fail in recent years.

“I finally found a GREAT, DELICIOUS TACO PLACE! My husband took his first bite of his burrito - and said it exploded with flavor! Everything is delicious 😋‼️ I do not need to travel to Downey anymore for tacos & burritos.“

“First time here and I was surprised.
The place is nice, but its empty from the inside. Its somewhat quiet, so it's calm. The waiter was polite and gave us chips and salsa. She was really patient.
I ordered a quesadilla "herradero" which is pretty big and it has a wonderful taste. I feel like it was a reasonable price.
At the end the waiter gave us peppermints. :)“

“Es un lugar limpio me an atendido bien son amables y su comida es excelente“

“Dora was really helpful? I had first gone to Vallarta and they didn’t want to service me for my check but I came here and Dora was really helpful and kind! I explained to her that my bank will not let me cash my money out on Saturday and Sundays and that I had to pay my bills today and she helped me set up an account with them! Gracias Dora!???“

“This place was excellent! We had lengua, carnitas, al pastor, pescada and cameron (sp?) tacos, and all were phenomenal! I am a bit of a spice weenie so it was a bit out of my comfort zone, but nothing "Mas crema, por favor" could not solve. :) My husband, who has a higher spice tolerance, absolutely loved it! I highly recommend this place. The jamaica is really good, too. It was definitely a highlight of our trip to Santa Maria.“

“omg so good, people are so nice there and there very clean❤❤❤❤ Get there shrimp cocktail super bomb🥑🍤“

“the food was delicious!...“

“First time getting breakfast burritos, they were huge. Although a little too much beans for a breakfast burrito… id get it again but without beans. My girl got the zarape and I got the ranchero with added bell peppers, onion, and tomatoes. What i thought was a little off was the bell peppers were like raw not kinda cooked/sautéed like what happens when you make a scramble. Both my girl and I kept having to add salt to our burritos because they were missing flavor, eggs could’ve used some sort of seasoning. Over all the burritos were like a 7.5/10.“
