El Molcajete is a lively and inviting restaurant known for its delicious food and friendly, professional service. The menu offers a broad selection of dishes that appeal to many tastes, with many customers praising the freshness and quality of the food. Popular items include quesabirria tacos, which are enjoyed for their flavorful beef and side of lime, veggies, and birria, as well as the Macho burrito with carne asada and grilled jalapeño, which is hearty and satisfying. The restaurant also serves a variety of drinks like agua de piña, agua de jamaica, and horchata, all noted for their delicious taste.
Appetizers such as super nachos and chips with salsa and bean dip are highly recommended, with the salsas described as flavorful, though one reviewer found the salsa too spicy. A new dessert, fried ice cream, is a highlight, featuring a large scoop of vanilla ice cream covered in batter, fried, and drizzled with chocolate—tasting like a donut and very enjoyable. The restaurant's presentation includes plates with pictures, and the chairs are big and comfy with cushions, enhancing the dining experience.
Despite being busy, the staff maintains excellent service, making diners feel welcomed and cared for. The overall atmosphere is lively yet relaxed, making El Molcajete a favorite spot for many, with repeat visits planned by satisfied guests.
