We were driving through on the 101 and saw that this looked like a great restaurant so we got off the freeway and went downtown. We were so delighted. It was some of the best Mexican food we’ve ever had. Tremendous service very clean restaurant and wonderful food

I loved the Carmarones Rancheros with the perfectly done shrimp and fresh sauce. The beans were excellent and the server was very nice.

The flour tortillas here are the best made-in-house tortillas I've had in the county. An excellent taste of cuisine from a southern region of Mexico underrepresented in Central California. The chicken enchiladas were moist with a tasty red sauce. The rice and beans had very complimentary flavors. The decor was bright and colorful. The establishment had some pieces of decoration I found new and interesting. The bathroom was clean and well stocked. Top notch service. They made us feel like we were the only guests in the restaurant. Eager and helpful, I never had an empty glass, nor did I wait long for my entree. Friendly staff with a smile and a laugh. All together this is an excellent stop along El Camino Real.

We went to the Guadalajara Restaurant on the recommendation of someone who lived there, and we were very disappointed with the food. I rarely write a bad review, but the food we were served was tasteless and definitely not fresh. We both had the chicken taco plate, and I had one vegetarian taco. The chicken was dry and literally tasteless. The few tomatoes that were in my vegetarian taco were mushy and sparse. Neither choice had any sauce or any toppings to add flavor. I was also served guacamole that had been left out too long, judging by the grayish-green color. Our meals were $18 each. I should have asked at least for fresh guacamole, but I was with my granddaughter and I didn’t want to put a damper on our evening out together.

On a long drive, looking for a place for some good food and stumbled on this place! Great place to rest, relax and rejuvenate!

We were excited to spend some money and go out for a good meal but were very disappointed! The food isnt good at all. The meat is tough, and my chile verde sauce was very watery. They dont like seasoning here. The tamales are huge but theres absolutely no flavor and barely any meat in them, they were so dry i couldnt swallow without water. All 4 of our meals werent good. Sad we spent 100$. I should have gotten a refund. The service was also pretty bad, our waitress left halfway through (which is totally understandable because life happens), but the new waitress never came to our table. I kept having to go to the front register to ask for anything and to pay. The restaurant itself is cute and the decorations are nice. Dont bother stopping here. We ended up grabbing tamales next door lol

Excellent service, clean and large dining area. Comfortable place to stop on the 101 for a meal. I wouldn't recommend the tamale, even though it's a HUGE one, as it's 80% corn wrapping and a tiny bit of meat but the burrito and other plates were good.
