This friendly, family owned restaurant prepares a mole sauce that will complement any dish. I could enjoy it with just tortillas. It is worth the drive and funky location.

Preaching to the choir for all of you regulars, the food here is delicious. For those of you, the never ate here and are curious be assured you will be well fed for a pittance. This is good quality cheap eats. Ate seated in the covered patio. It's basic. Family friendly. You don't want to bring a first date here if you plan to impress the person with your impeccable style and taste. But if your date is a foodie, just come, no need to dress up fancy. Bambie had the ahi tacos. I had the Oaxacan green mole' with chicken plate. Fresh and flavorful, plentiful, plated pretty. With one beer this feast cost all of $40. Had food left after I was stuffed for take home snack tonight. Family owned, friendly folks, casual. Recommended!

Authentic, family owned Oaxacan food. I've never had something that I didn't absolutely love. Great, fast service.

I recently visited Mezcalito Oaxacan Cuisine Restaurant with high hopes of enjoying a delicious meal and pleasant dining experience. Unfortunately, my expectations were not met, and I left feeling thoroughly disappointed.

Maybe I'm choosing the wrong things on the menu? I see a steady stream of to-go orders every time we come. My husband LOVES THE LAMB. I want that stated early on! So there must be some redeeming items on the menu. I know I liked the cochinita, so I thought I'd try more of the offerings. Food: Ceviche (3/5): hefty chunks of fish and good balance of supporting ingredients BUT the lime was overwhelming... that's all you taste. I got tired of it halfway through. Queso (3/5): very cheesy but quite flat despite the interesting presentation and varied ingredients. Molotes (2/5): the most disappointing of them all - it's so beautifully presented, but again, flavor is missing/bland. The guajillo sauce kind of saved it. I was drowning them in every salsa and sauce on the table trying to make them as interesting as they looked. Service: requires a more laid back patience - I'm not sure they have assigned roles, but it's the second time we've had to wave down someone to ask to place an order and although it's table service for orders, we've always paid at the counter

Food is amazing! They have a great vegan bowl. It's busy so plan ahead. Parking available and service is always good. Highly recommend

Got there, my order was given to the doordash guy a minute before I walked in. They made my order again. I get home and my entire meal was missing, my husband's was there, but none of mine was there. Of course, they closed so now.....

Starters were solid warm chips and salsa where the star of the show the other was really just pork rinds with some weird bean paste and a good guacamole. Main dishes were good the green enchiladas were different than most sauce was thicker but it was a great option and apparently is the popular dish. Fajitas where good as you can see not a lot of them which was an issue but they were good none the less. Service was on point and the decor and neat glasses really made the place pop would definitely go back and i will get the enchiladas and different appetizer next time.
We had tried the place a couple of times. First visit, My wife and I stopped by planning to grab some apps and then pick up to go. Staff were very friendly. We ended up with Apps and then dinner + togo for the guys at home. Second time was just to go and the guys went to pick up. Food were very good and service had always been very friendly. It's a place to go for Mexican food in Rocklin and Roseville. Thumbs up.

The food here was so good! The service was excellent and it was a very authentic feel. We had guacamole, salsa and ceviche for appetizers. Everything was eaten so fast there was no time to take a photo. I enjoyed the parrillada which was kind of like fajitas and my wife had the shrimp and fish tacos. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be going back next time I visit.
