“Amazing food! Our office heard about this place and did an order for 5....Dear Lord! The Elotas were soooo good! Everyone was raving about their food. I would like to stop by tonight and order for dinner too!😄😁“

“This was a great meal for the price, we both got Chimichangas a chicken which had so much flavor as well fried pork belly. For the price and quickness of serves, La Cocina was a great choice for dinner. It is like 40 feet from our hotel and couldn’t be happier by eating there. I highly recommend stopping by for dinner or a meal.“

“Food is delicious. The mulitas and California Burrito me and the homie get are always good, tasty and worth it. Definitely Good Quality of food and amount is definitely worth the price.

The service is amazing as well. Owner is friendly and engage with customers.

Atmosphere is chill. Outside seating but it's always good.“

“this is my favorite go to place for Mexico. it's understated but they have the best menudo and exquisite chile verde. I mean the chili verde is like one of the best ones I've ever had anywhere hands down. I'd go there just for the chili verde but everything else is good too. and they're good people and the place is clean and they're open good hours“

“Super Taco is always reliable. The food is fresh, portions are generous, and everything I’ve tried has been very good. The staff is friendly and quick, even during busy hours. It’s an easy choice when I want something filling and well-made. A place I keep coming back to.“

“This was the best food I’ve ever had in my entire life! I will for sure be back for more! Awesome service and amazing food! Delicious!!!“

“El Molcajete is a great spot for authentic Mexican food in Ukiah. The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and beautifully decorated with vibrant colors and comfortable tables that blend traditional Mexican elements with a modern, cozy feel. One thing that really stands out is how busy it is with Latino guests — always a good sign that the food is truly authentic and well-made.

I was welcomed with fresh chips and salsa, along with avocado salsa, red salsa, and beans — everything was flavorful and delicious. I also tried the octopus tostada and ceviche, which were fresh, well-seasoned, and very enjoyable.

The highlight of the meal was their famous molcajete. It came sizzling and full of flavor, with a generous mix of meats, chicken, cactus, onions, and beans, all served in a traditional Mexican molcajete. Absolutely delicious and perfect for sharing. They also offer options with just chicken or shrimp, which is a nice touch.

Service was mostly good. My server was friendly, though a bit distracted at times. Cristian stepped in to check on me and made sure everything was okay, which I appreciated.

Overall, El Molcajete offers great food, authentic flavors, and a lively atmosphere. Definitely a place I’d recommend if you’re craving real Mexican cuisine in Ukiah.“

“I’m so obsessed with these snow cones that I’ll come up with any excuse to go to Costco in Ukiah, an hour from home, just so I can grab one. I order the exact same flavor every time. At this point, I’ve had enough of them to say with absolute certainty: when the older man makes it, it’s the best snow cone on earth. Perfect texture. Perky. Icy. Heaven.

But when the younger woman makes it, it turns out like snow cone soup. Very wet, no structure, just… wet slush. I’m assuming the snow all comes from the same machine, so I have no idea how his are so firm and refreshing while hers are so soupy.

The flavor’s great either way, so it’s still a treat, but for me it really throws the whole texture off and I’m bummed. Usually I go alone, so it’s not a big deal if it’s a “meh” day. But one time I hyped these up like crazy and brought my teenager along. She handed us two cups of soup, and I had to convince him I wasn’t lying about how amazing they usually are.

Still obsessed. Just hoping I catch the right snow cone artist next time.“

“Great food, great service every time!“

“I’m from SoCal where street tacos are prime no matter where you go. Moved out here and was craving them as they are a lot harder to come by then in SoCal where they’re on every corner. Lalo’s filled that gap and are the best tacos I’ve had in Northern California. Definitely a must stop!!“

“Hands down the best Mexican restaurant in not only Ukiah but the entire county! Their salsas are incredible, everything is made fresh and with perfect seasoning. They do grilled chicken like no one else! Service is fast and friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy and bright with comfortable outdoor seating options.“

“Just out boppin around with Hobo John and his little bed roll, OneEyed Mary, and she blasts out something about this joint called Lalo's and how good the chicken tacos are. Well, I can never just walk by a Mexican restaurant or taco truck without at least trying 3 tacos! I see it as a civic responsibility to help the small family owned businesses succeed.
And you know what...OneEyed Mary was right..those chicken tacos were Amazing! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“New favorite place!! So far I have only tried their chicken mole enchiladas, but it was sooooooo good! Salsa, salad, guacamole, and crème were all included and fresh! Also…. Hands down the best tortilla chips I have had since moving to Ukiah from Fresno.“

“Love there wet burritos, none better!“

“Large menu , lots to choose from, lots of room and friendly staff“
