“The food here is really great and the menu is huge! There are many foods that are rarely found as vegan options, so it's a lot of fun for a vegan to try them. Service is friendly and fast food is made to order. The empanaditos are also very good, and the desserts are also very delicious. This restaurant is centrally located and can be busy at times. If the parking lot is full, there is usually free street parking just a block or two away.Vegetarian options: Restaurant is completely vegan“

“I'm not quite sure what all the hype is about. Don't get me wrong, it was "good" but a 4.8 rating? Maybe I'm just spoiled by L.A. tacos. The fish tacos were good. The tuna cevice was not the best quality tuna which made it just "okay" - YMMV“

“Great spot for Oaxaca food and cocktails. I recommend the chicken enchiladas and try the chapulines. It’s a nice spot if you want cocktails and appetizers. It’s dimly lit, so the ambiance is very city like with great service. They have carafe options too if you have a partner or a group.“

“Stopped in here yesterday, as is our tradition when we visit Monterey. My son tried the house burrito and loved it. My daughter had three tacos and said they were tasty. I had the blackened shrimp tostada, which was pretty much perfect. The service is always fast and friendly, and there's always an energy vibe to the place. It's always busy, and everyone is very friendly. We got our order to go and drove a few minutes to the beach at Asilomar so we could enjoy the sunset while we ate. Great place, reasonably priced, fast service, tasty food.“

“We came here for lunch and had a nice meal. We ordered the camarón con pulpo seafood cocktail, mole de pollo, carnitas, and molcajete. Our favorite dish was the camarón con pulpo seafood cocktail, and we thought the mole was delicious too. The service was great, and we would definitely come back again if we’re back in Seaside!“

“I got a vegetarian burrito and let me tell you…This burrito was so good. They definitely filled that bad boy up and I was a huge fan of that. The guac was out of this world and I loved the flavor of the grill. We also got tons of sauces, and pickled onions and grilled onions. I had food for both lunch and dinner. I was a really big fan of this one and will be coming back very often. Super good! Was supposed to just take a bite in the car and ending up taking half of it haha“

“Chili verde is great! And I absolutely love the homemade flour tortillas! But the burrito now only comes with meat, rice, and beans so anything extra will cost you (cheese, salsa, lettuce, etc). And don’t come here SUPER hungry because they are pretty small, but so is the price.“

“Delicious as always. Vegetarian burrito and lots of extra pico is my go to. BTW, the refried beans are vegetarian too. ?Vegetarian options: I called and asked about the refried beans and was assured that they were not made with lard. Lots of other options too.“

“This place is so yummmyyy!!! We came on a weekend trip to Monterey and decided to eat here. Service was great! My boyfriend and I came on a Sunday at around 8ish maybe 8:30ish and it wasn’t too packed. Shortly after, families did start arriving and it got busier. Regardless, we still got served our food in a timely manner and would definitely come again! Their outside seating is perfect! They have heaters and a fire setting that’s not super big but it’ll keep you warm. It’s also dog friendly which was cute!“

“The sweet pans are delicious and a must try, when we got there, they were all freshly baked! Only complaint I have is the tamales, they were not cooked properly, thus they were dry, and I believe the corn husks that wrap around the tamale were not washed before steaming so the taste of dry dusty husk was strong within the tamale.Parking: Parking was fairly easy to find.“

“First time trying out Cazuelas and they have found a life long customer in me! To start off, complimentary chips and salsa! Places like this just don't exist anymore. My order was ready within less than 5 minutes of ordering. They have agua frescas! I ordered the shrimp burrito and the waitress came to my table and plopped down the thiccckest burrito I've ever seen! Perfectly wrapped and PACKED with jumbo shrimp! They did not get chintzy with the shrimp, I'm pretty sure just about every bite I took had shrimp! The flavors were all there and it was perfectly cooked. This is the place for local Mexican food and your tastebuds are missing out if you're not getting yourself here! Next time I come, which will probably be tomorrow, I'll order the tripas which I'm sure won't disappoint either! Yum!“

“Absolutely fire. The hongos torta is phenomenal.If you’re on a date don’t get the tacos because there is no sophisticated way to eat them. But the fish tacos (both varieties) are great.Staff is so nice too. You should definitely try it out!“

“I had such a pleasant time here. I came to Seaside for work and just happened to pass by this Taco Shop. It was as if the odds had all worked for me to discover this place because I can't wait to come back and bring my daughters with me the next time we are in town. I look forward to sitting down and trying out more of the items on their menu. Everything sounded so good!“

“I ordered caldo de res and it's very good. I'm thankful. Atmosphere is throwback to 1960 I'm thinking? Very clean you have room and big windows for looking outside. Parking is good. Yes and the waitress is awesome friendly. I feel like I'm traveling back in time.“

“These guys catered my party, and they were AWESOME! Their catering menu had lots of choices, included chips/salsa/guac, and because we had fewer people than originally planned, they left us with some burritos before they left. Having a taco truck in the driveway was also a big draw. Highly recommended.“
“Hands down best street tacos in the county. $3 each. You can probably find better in Salinas or Watsonville but only by a small margin. Location is very convenient for me working at nearby office park. Only gripe is that they don’t take card.But let me tell you, their food slaps harder than Will Smith at the Oscars and is ready quicker then the 3 tiktoks i watched after ordering. If you travel on 68 often, you are doing your stomach and soul a disservice but not stopping here.OnlNow, it is a food truck, and it is cash only, but the food slap byParking: Large dirt lot. Plenty of room for any vehicle.“

“Through town on a business trip, we found this restaurant. We ordered an Asada and a Chicken burrito. Quite honestly, I had better expectations of the place, since it’s a hole in the wall, which in my experience are usually the best spots. Don’t get me wrong, the food is decent but their salsas are not good at all. If they made better/tastier salsas, I would definitely give them a 5-Star review.Pros:The staff is friendly and they make the orders extremely fast. They have free chips and an open salsa bar, which is good.Cons: Salsas are not the best and or tastiest and parking is very scarce, to say the least. Also, the restroom is not ADA accessible.Parking: The parking lot has only about 10 parking spots, tops“

“If you're looking for some decent Mexican food for a decent price, this is a decent option. It's definitely not the best Mexican place around, but it's also far from the worst. Same goes for price: affordable but not dirt cheap. The food here isn't anything to write home about; that is, the meat isn't the greatest quality and the portion sizes are a little small. However, the flavor is good. The beans are hit or miss since they sometimes come out a little cold. Also, if it gets busy (not very common), it's a good idea to know how to speak a little Spanish. The servers are pretty nice but they sometimes seem like they're rushing the customer a little. Atmosphere is great; no complaints here.I order a different thing every time I come here (four times so far) since none of the individual items I've tried have stood out to me as amazing. Coming from San Diego, I know what to look for when ordering top-notch Mexican. This place hasn't hit that mark yet for me.Parking: This place doesn't have a good selection of parking. I recommend parking on the street to the right of it.“

“Hands down, the best Mexican restaurant in the peninsula. I personally have heard so many good things about this restaurant, as they have various locations in the peninsula. I have never tried it till now. I am boy have I been missing out!Our server was kind and friendly. Right away, he took our order for our beverages, in which I ordered an Horchata. They Horchata itself was delicious, and definitely not artificial. I went ahead and ordered the quesabirria tacos. My boyfriend ordered some Asada Gorditas, and my parents ordered their famous Molcajete, and added shrimp. Our food was served to us right away and looked super appealing. These Quesabirria tacos definitely did not disappoint. The taco it was super crispy and fall of shredded birria and cheese. Both my parents and my boyfriend love their seasoning, and how rich the food was. The flavoring of everything was just phenomenal. This location is quite big, and has both booths and tables available for sitting inside. I'll definitely be back !“

“I was not sure what to expect. And I was blown away. Everything is homemade from the tortillas to the sauces. I felt like I'm being fed food by someone who is making food like they would for their family. An absolute privilege. Friendly and attentive staff to too. And the prices were very reasonable, I think the other person went to a different place.“

“I had an absolute blast here. The atmosphere was lovely, and my shrimp burrito slapped! The price was fair, and the food was quick. After a small hiccup with my order that he addressed quickly, the owner gave us some free rice and beans and even offered a free soda! The other workers were also kind. If I lived nearby, I would come here often, and I will still likely return in the future. Would highly recommend.“

“Great views, food and drinks. In a clear sunny day you can see point lobos and pacific ocean and Carmel Valley hills. The 9th hole executive course is beautiful and well manicured. The hostess was no where to be found so the waiter, I wish I could remember his name, but he was a young Asian male with a tattoo on his hand was awesome. He checked us in, cleaned and readied a table and sat us. He also came to get us drink orders and served water several time. He deserves many kudos and recognition!“
