The food was delicious, the service outstanding. The restaurant can only be described as the proverbial hole in the wall. We found this place on the website and it had good reviews so we decided on trying it. We were very pleased with our choice. Go there for lunch or dinner, you won’t be disappointed. Don’t be put of by the lack of ambiance.

This place offers authentic Mexican cuisine with incredibly delicious food. The menu has excellent choices, and both the restaurant itself and its surroundings exhibits Mexican atmosphere, well its Salinas, CA, where the Hispanic community predominates.

We stopped for a late lunch and the food was excellent! Home style Mexican food. Plus when a homeless person walked by, the owner made a special effort to take the shoeless man a burrito . It’s nice to see compassion along w great food!

Truly stands out with its exceptional combination of delicious food, impeccable cleanliness, and welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you step in, the staff's warmth and professionalism make you feel right at home. The restaurant itself is spotlessly clean, creating a pleasant environment to enjoy their flavorful Mexican dishes. Each bite is a testament to their dedication to quality and authenticity, making El Zacatecano a must-visit for anyone seeking an outstanding dining experience.
We tried it on a whim and it was so good! It’s been a little bit of a struggle finding good Mexican spots here but this place is amazing. It’s 40 minutes away but definitely worth the drive. It’s relatively inexpensive for the amount of food and the value. I got the chicken enchiladas and they were great ! The rice and salsa are very good. The servers are so so kind too :)
