El Mexicano is a restaurant known for its delicious and fresh authentic Mexican food. The guacamole is particularly praised, with customers noting its freshness and exceptional flavor. The mahi mahi tacos with mango salsa and chili relleno are also popular choices, along with the 3 tacos special (1 beef, 1 el pastor, and 1 carnitas), where the carnitas taco stands out. The rice and beans are standouts, described as flavorful and not just mere fillers. The restaurant's inviting Mexican decor adds to the authentic atmosphere, with comfy booths and tables usually accompanied by traditional Mexican music. Customers appreciate the thoughtful touches, such as complementary Mexican desserts, and praise the friendly, kind family who runs it. The food is quick, reliable, and always consistent, with the best salsa in Willits. Overall, El Mexicano is worth the trip to Willits, offering a taste of Mexico that is hard to find elsewhere in Mendocino County.
