Restaurants in Mendota

“The food is good and tastes good. This was my second time there, and this time, the food was not visually appealing. It seemed to me like the tacos were made just to get them done, and no effort was made to make them visually appealing.”

“Beautiful location, friendly staff, great wine! Thanks to their partnership with Harvest Hosts, we were able to enjoy a wine tasting, an evening on the porch by the fountain, then stumble our way home (i.e. to the driveway/parkinglot). It is obvious that the family and staff at Cardella care a great deal for their grounds, their buildings, and their product! We are looking forward t comparing their Zinfandel's since only one was available for tasting that day! A great afternoon was had, and I could not recommend this location any more!”

“Pupusas are always on point. They may take a while to come out, but only because they are made fresh to order. It is out door dinning only and they do not serve alcohol. However there agua frescas are delicious.”

“This little hole in the wall was a huge suprise! Recommended by some our customers, who live in Mendota, we were greeted with friendly staff, who made amazing recommendations for us.
My husband wanted chips and salsa and the owner, literally went into the kitchen and made them from scratch!
They recommended the Gordita!!! We had chicken and it was flavorful, chicken was moist, seasoned well and accompanied by a slaw that brought a perfect balance to the dish!
The sopes was… chef’s kiss!!! My husband’s favorite. He ordered the el pastor and it was perfectly marinated and full of flavor. The sopes was soft on the inside and crisp and crunchy on the outside… giving a savory and full flavor. Also well seasoned. It was topped with cabbage & sour cream.
Their signature pupusa was my personal favorite! For me it was the thick corn outer shell stuffed with cheese and carnitas. I took a bite and there was something nostalgic about it!
A few bites more and I noticed the slaw on the side… I put it on top and WOW!!! Took it to another level.
If this place was in LA or Bay Area with all the bells and whistles… there would be a line out the door!

The atmosphere is what you would expect for a hole in the wall. Just basic and older… but by the time you take your first bite, it’s irrelevant.

Talked with the owner and his sister!!! Great people! Realized his wife is a regular at Clash, which was an extra cherry on top!!! (We love supporting our customers businesses!)

If you are ever in Mendota, check it out!”

“Best burger in town”

“Food was great. Tacos juicy. Sopes were packed. The burritos are big. You can split the burrito between 2 people

Vegetarian options: There’s quesadillas, burritos and fried rice.

Parking: Parking on the side of the street. There’s a lot of parking”

“It is just a perfect example of a well prepared, fresh Mexican food.
Great flavor, perfect amount of spice.
The Carne asada was perfect. Not piece of chewy.
Personally, they are small (street size) for $3.
I would gladly pay $5 to $7 for a full-size taco.
The salsa was not spicy (I have a very high spice tolerance), but they did have Fresh Grilled Jalapeños available.
The menu is simple, which is appropriate for the restaurant and kitchen size.
The staff was very welcoming and friendly.
The restaurant was exceptionally clean and organized.
I will definitely return when I'm in the area.
It is also worth driving out of town for.

Parking: Street parking and a parking lot on the side of the building”

“The handmade tortilla tacos are excellent, the service is very good ? only now without peanuts they removed them, I ask them to return the pork ribs in red sauce, delicious”

“Very clean place inside & outside, well arranged where they serve you a variety of dishes. I stopped here for the pupusas which is my favorite Salvadorian dish. The people tending the place were amicable & welcoming and had a very positive vibe to them. I ordered a pair of pupusas along with two Pacifico beers and it was very satisfying after a long day of driving. Mendota California rules! USA

Vegetarian options: Loroco pupusas”

“I recommend the menudo one off the best 😋”

“Food is very good. I prefer the "tipico" Salvadorian breakfast and their pupusas are good. They have good "Choco-banano" and Salvadorian snacks...”

“I simply enjoyed their dishes. I always get awesome service there. The place is clean and the employees are always super friendly. I highly recommend this place.”

“It's a Subway, and it functions like one. As a fast food chain, it's overpriced, and the food isn't amazing, but it's decent. The only shortcoming I can think of is the lack of meat options compared to other Subway locations.”

“The food was great, the people working there didn't seem they wanted to be there with no smiles, and it felt plain inside, other than that the food was great.

Parking: 3 spots”

“Our company purchased a total of 6 pizzas today to go through take back to our job site spending over $200 for everything and it was well worth it! The service was excellent, they prepared everything that I requested and the best part was the pizza! Everyone loved it especially all of the different pizzas that I ordered. Thank you so much for everything from the Pizza Factory Team! We’ll see you again soon. Keith Johns”

“The best small town donut shop!! A wide variety to pick your favorite donut or try a delicious jalapeno and ham and cheese croissant!! You can grab a cup of coffee also and the service is amazing!!!”

“I come to Mendota for work a few times a month and this coffee shop has been recommended to me over and over. I finally went in and gave it a try. I should have tried it sooner. The employees are friendly, they have so many menu options and it would be a great place to come back to and do work. Their sizes are generous and prices are reasonable.”

“When u walk in you feel welcomed and it feels like you just stepped back in time back to like the 1930s food is amazing made frash and the bakery is always fresh.. staff is always smiling and very polite”
