“excelente servicio y rapidez“

“The pork chop dinner my mom loves. I had chicken strips and onion rights and they were really good and filling. I love the home made batter.

Dietary restrictions: Being a diabetic the food choices make it so much easier to eat a good meal at a decent price. You get what you pay for finally and it's a decent serving.“

“love the taste of,Del taco!!! Del yeah!!!🌮🌮🌮“

“I apologize but I have been going to get food at this location ever since they opened. I should have given a review from the start, but I wanted to wait until I truly experienced all of what they have to offer. All I have to say is, AMAZING. Everything from their carnitas tacos to carne asada nachos is the best. I can say I even drink their hot sauce lol. You want food that gives every bang for the buck, you need to go here. They are such wonderful people to deal with, which makes it even better.“

“Great food and drinks..Relaxed vibe and atmosphere. Tacquitos Dorado and Tacos LA Paz were excellent...We'll be back!!!“

“I have been to the Sedona location and the Palm Desert location is even far superior. The taste, presentation and service were all exceptional... especially given that they have only been open for three weeks. The Mole Enchilada was the best I have ever had. Decor was fresh, modern, open, airy and welcoming. Nice bar to sit at as well. I will be coming back many times. Bob K Palm Desert“

“The atmosphere takes you to a village in Mexico. The food is authentic. Love the nachos. Pleasant wait staff.“

“If you're looking for a casual place for tacos & burritos The Super Taco place on highway 111 by Del Taco in Cathedral City is great! Went there for lunch today and ordered a carne asada taco with the works and a chicken hard shell taco. Both filled with tons of delicious meat and fixings. Price was less than $15. Cute place and a great patio in the back that would work well for a group of maybe 40+! I’ll be going back again!“

“lo mejor en platillos mexicanos 😋“

“Stopped by Elvira’s Taqueria for lunch after a notary appointment in Cathedral City. The restaurant was very clean, friendly staff and food was made fresh to order. We ordered the 3 quesa birria tacos with consommé plate. They were delicious! The meat was flavorful and shells just the right crispness. The consommé was definitely authentic and very flavorful. The salsa served with the tacos was also delicious I think maybe habanero salsa. It had just enough heat that you could still taste the flavor of the tacos. I will definitely stop by Elvira’s Taqueria next time I am in the neighborhood to try some more of the other menu items! Definitely recommend if you are looking for authentic Mexican food!“

“If you’re looking for some great Mexican food, this is the place to try! The atmosphere is amazing, the food is even better, and the service is excellent!“

“Small friendly place. Lots of great dishes beyond the standard Mexicali or Texmex fair.

Tried the daily special, mole enchiladas. Smelled just like a chocolate churro. Great.

Salsa had good flavor but could be a little spicier.“

“Increíble comida,🥘 muy rico sazón 😋“

“I totally enjoyed my recent and a previous dinner occasion at La Perlita. Service was friendly and efficient, from being greeted through departure after enjoying a delicious meal. Portions were just right in size, not too little or too much. I had the pollo asado and was very satisfied.“

“Great food and they are wonderful at supporting our hometown community“

“Perfect joint to grab some drinks and great Mexican cuisine. They have a full bar and a nice big menu of food. We got the Chilaquilas Con Carne Asada with eggs over medium and red and green salsa. It had the perfect spice and was an extremely big portion. The carne was tender and not chewy. The eggs were also perfectly done. We also tried a veggie omlete that was also cooked to perfection. Fluffy egg, not dry and tasty fresh veggies with fresh slices of avocado. Served with rice and beans that are fresh and delicious. My buddy ordered two Michelada's with Modelo and loved them!! Our waitress was also SUPER friendly and took care of us. Will be back again soon.????

Vegetarian options: They have a veggie omlete.“

“Great service! Very friendly staff and the food is really good! Prices are very reasonable as well! Highly recommend trying this cafe!“

“I'm embarrassed to say my favorite hamburger joint is this amazing Mexican restaurant...but it's true! I can't decide which I love more, their spicy burger or their teriyaki burger. Every week I promise myself I'll try something different--those tacos look amazing-- but I'm hooked on these juicy burgers.
I can't even remember to take a photo before I dig in. Please guys, don't ever change!
I love their style of service too..."Dine in or take out? Dine in? Sit anywhere you like" So casual, but also, quick service and the best food. This little place rocks. Bravo!“

“Always a favorite dining experience.“

“Great new family owned business in the desert. I ordered the Mole Ranchero, a robust flavor of spicy pork not sweet at all. My wife had the shrimp with the zarandeada sauce, and loved it! Very flavorful and just spicy enough. Can’t wait to come and try their breakfast!!“

“Best Mexican food in the desert the fajitas trio or any of the combination plates. Best margaritas on this side of the border.“

“Great food and a staple in our little artists/makers community. Junior is an amazing human, and this place is not to be missed. 10/10.“

“We finally made it to this restaurant for dinner. We sat on the patio and watched a beautiful sunset as we dined. We found the menu had some great selections, but we stuck with some ala carte choices as a way to sample several items. The sopa with beef, the beef taco, and tostada were excellent. The enchiladas and tamale were just average, I'd say. The salsa and chips were a winner ( not too spicy with the salsa). Great pricing and service were additional reasons to come back for more.“

“We moved to DHS from LA and this was the first place we ate at that we actually enjoyed our food and drinks. The service was outstanding and the atmosphere was awesome and I can not begin to express how pleased I was with the food and the drinks. This will be our go to place for Authentic mexican food and delicious drinks.....“

“The best food ever for Mexican food“

“The food and service at Tortillas Restaurant is amazing!! I had the Chile Relleno with cheese (vegetarian options available, which was super nice!) and my husband had the Enchiladas de Mole with chicken - and both were delicious! The mole sauce is definitely of 5-star quality! It was all so fresh and authentic, with the foods being beautifully presented on the plates. I also highly recommend the horchata drinks there too!“

“Good food and friendly employees great service“
