“authentic mexican. good hamburgers too.”

“This little hole in the wall was a huge suprise! Recommended by some our customers, who live in Mendota, we were greeted with friendly staff, who made amazing recommendations for us.
My husband wanted chips and salsa and the owner, literally went into the kitchen and made them from scratch!
They recommended the Gordita!!! We had chicken and it was flavorful, chicken was moist, seasoned well and accompanied by a slaw that brought a perfect balance to the dish!
The sopes was… chef’s kiss!!! My husband’s favorite. He ordered the el pastor and it was perfectly marinated and full of flavor. The sopes was soft on the inside and crisp and crunchy on the outside… giving a savory and full flavor. Also well seasoned. It was topped with cabbage & sour cream.
Their signature pupusa was my personal favorite! For me it was the thick corn outer shell stuffed with cheese and carnitas. I took a bite and there was something nostalgic about it!
A few bites more and I noticed the slaw on the side… I put it on top and WOW!!! Took it to another level.
If this place was in LA or Bay Area with all the bells and whistles… there would be a line out the door!

The atmosphere is what you would expect for a hole in the wall. Just basic and older… but by the time you take your first bite, it’s irrelevant.

Talked with the owner and his sister!!! Great people! Realized his wife is a regular at Clash, which was an extra cherry on top!!! (We love supporting our customers businesses!)

If you are ever in Mendota, check it out!”

“This is authentic Mexican food and American food options, so delicious & full of flavor. Friendly service & environment, My family & I left completely satisfied!!! We plan to visit again when we are in the area of San Joaquin. (God Willing)”

“Pupusas are always on point. They may take a while to come out, but only because they are made fresh to order. It is out door dinning only and they do not serve alcohol. However there agua frescas are delicious.”

“Best burger in town”

“The food is good and tastes good. This was my second time there, and this time, the food was not visually appealing. It seemed to me like the tacos were made just to get them done, and no effort was made to make them visually appealing.”

“I come to Mendota for work a few times a month and this coffee shop has been recommended to me over and over. I finally went in and gave it a try. I should have tried it sooner. The employees are friendly, they have so many menu options and it would be a great place to come back to and do work. Their sizes are generous and prices are reasonable.”

“The handmade tortilla tacos are excellent, the service is very good ? only now without peanuts they removed them, I ask them to return the pork ribs in red sauce, delicious”

“The best small town donut shop!! A wide variety to pick your favorite donut or try a delicious jalapeno and ham and cheese croissant!! You can grab a cup of coffee also and the service is amazing!!!”

“On our way out of town and needed a place to stop and get dinner on the way, and this place did not disappoint!! The food was fresh and flavorful, and everything we ordered was perfectly cooked. We got the enchiladas, tacos, popusas and a couple other items and there wasn't a single one that wasn't delicious!”

“It is just a perfect example of a well prepared, fresh Mexican food.
Great flavor, perfect amount of spice.
The Carne asada was perfect. Not piece of chewy.
Personally, they are small (street size) for $3.
I would gladly pay $5 to $7 for a full-size taco.
The salsa was not spicy (I have a very high spice tolerance), but they did have Fresh Grilled Jalapeños available.
The menu is simple, which is appropriate for the restaurant and kitchen size.
The staff was very welcoming and friendly.
The restaurant was exceptionally clean and organized.
I will definitely return when I'm in the area.
It is also worth driving out of town for.

Parking: Street parking and a parking lot on the side of the building”

“Very clean place inside & outside, well arranged where they serve you a variety of dishes. I stopped here for the pupusas which is my favorite Salvadorian dish. The people tending the place were amicable & welcoming and had a very positive vibe to them. I ordered a pair of pupusas along with two Pacifico beers and it was very satisfying after a long day of driving. Mendota California rules! USA

“We got a recommendation from a resident to try this place for lunch, and we are so glad we did. The food was delicious and the people there were really nice. We ordered tacos, a carnitas burrito, and carne asada fries.”

“Wonderful vibes and very affable service. The meals were crisp and delicious. Will clearly recommend this place to my friends. Fair prices and big meals. Good job.”

“Al 💯 lo mejor en botanas !!”

“Food is very good. I prefer the "tipico" Salvadorian breakfast and their pupusas are good. They have good "Choco-banano" and Salvadorian snacks...”

“I went here on 08/01/25 and ordered a six inch. I was greeted right away by a staff member and was helped by Ebony. She was incredibly sweet and also great at her job and making of the sandwich. She made great conversation and was just overall helpful and quick in her service!”

“I simply enjoyed their dishes. I always get awesome service there. The place is clean and the employees are always super friendly. I highly recommend this place.”

“The food was great, the people working there didn't seem they wanted to be there with no smiles, and it felt plain inside, other than that the food was great.

Parking: 3 spots”

“I've been such a long-time customer....These people are more like family to me. Lily, long-time employee, is a pro! Angel is an awesome pizza-maker and always super-friendly. Brian is also top-notch....Really, they're all great. And of course the Pizza is consistently awesome -- What other pizza restaurant puts this much pepperoni on their pizza?! I dare you to compare! I also highly recommend you try their NEW Mozzarella Sticks - surprisingly tasty! Thanks, Pizza Factory, for all delicious food over these many years!”

“There isn't one person serving you, you have to do the work for them. You have to use the machine to place your order. I don't recommend this place. They should save $2dlrs for each order you place with the machine because they are saving a worker or more with the machines. Therefore not one more dollar for McDonalds's.”
