Food is amazing but the service is always terrible . Employees always have an attitude and are very rude even when being nice . Unfortunately I'll be coming back every time for the food but I just ignore the service because it's bad every single time .

Good home-style food. Great portions. Clean ambiance. Friendly servers. However, every now and then you hear narco music, which cheapens the experience.

Molino de Oro continues to be one of my favorite spots. The food is always fresh and full of authentic Mexican flavor. Their prices are better than most places around, the service is fast and friendly, and the variety they offer is impressive.

My personal favorite is the mole — rich flavor, great portion, and consistent every time.

Suggestion for improvement:
It would be amazing if they added white rice as an option. Even something simple like plain white rice, white rice with veggies, or white rice with lime. I think it would pair perfectly with the mole and many of their entrées.

Also, small safety suggestion regarding the bakery section:
They currently display some nut bread alongside other pastries using the same tongs. For customers with nut allergies, this could be dangerous due to cross-contamination. If possible, removing the nut bread or using separate tongs and labeling that section would help keep everyone safe.

Overall, excellent food, great service, great pricing. Highly recommend Molino de Oro.

They gave us the wrong order, then refused to make it right. The owner is a terrible business person.
We will not go back and will be taking our money somewhere else.

I decided to give it a try after hearing so much wonderful things about their food, but the service is such a mess! It was my first time there and I was trying to order the 3.75 tacos. The man didn't seem to be paying attention to what I was saying, I even spoke both in English and Spanish to try to make things easier for him. I got sent to the register, and the cashier seemed confused by my order, constantly asking me questions when I was really confused by how everything worked. They kept putting the wrong order and I had to keep correcting them, they had to keep going back to the man to ask him questions, and it wasn't long before more staff members came to the register trying to figure out what I ordered. I realized it would take awhile which was time I didn't have, so I apologized and left while they shouted at me to come back.
I asked some friends who came here, and they confirmed that happened to them too. The staff really need to communicate better. I wanted to try the food but unfortunately the service just scared me away.

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!!
Called in an order and food was not ready upon arrival, new people kept coming in and ordering and were getting their orders same food which was Menudo amongst other things and we still weren’t getting our food, after 20+ mins of waiting just cancelled the order, not the first time this has happened but thought I’d give them another shot. These people have no sense of urgency…
