Molcajetes North Naples

I don’t always get five stars but when I do you better believe it’s worth it

Food was old, the chicken was very dry, the chorizo was almost burn, the beef flautas were almost empty and the meat was old from the day before, no tasty, they advertise the wrong price. The limes we’re overripe with brown marks, cucumber was soggy, the avocado was spotty, they didn’t have sauce for the tacos, the server was very nice and kind but food was terrible, music is not kids friendly. Unfortunately we are not coming back.

This specific location is very bad. The vibe entering is not welcoming, its dirty. Going to the bathroom, the kitchen door was open and inside was a mess. Didn’t see a cook. I guess the server was cooking and serving. The server was nice, but the food was bad too. The meat in the tacos looked old and it was dry. 3$ for a small side of guac, literally a spoon size, the one you get ketchup to go. Are you serious? Veggies were old. A hair came out from the green sauce bottle he gave us. So disappointed. Comparing to the location they have on Bayshore drive (which we love) this one is terrible. Needs to be cleaned and improved for sure. Sadly I didn’t take pictures.

We used to go often when we lived in Naples. Now every time we find ourselves there, we make a stop here! Last night the food and service was outstanding! We ordered cecina de res and al pastor and it was seasoned to perfection. I cannot find cecina de res anywhere in any state that I have traveled to and have eaten at an authentic Mexican restaurant so I really really recommend it!
Actually…maybe don’t try it so that it’s never sold out when I go 🤣
The server was so personable and made us feel comfortable! She deserves a raise and a paid vacation bc she really knows what she’s doing to make the experience for the customer top notch and on top of that she was managing the restaurant by herself! I regret not remembering her name.

Btw if y’all are looking for places open for Christmas, they’re gonna be open on Nochebuena and the 25th!

Terrible service, yesterday November 14th in the afternoon around 6PM at the Tamiami trail, I stopped by and ordered something to take away, the service I received from the waitress was the worst I have ever had, I specify this detail so that the owner can locate to the person responsible for this negative review that affects your business, I never put negative reviews, if something goes wrong I just leave it out, but this was too much.

I ordered something small for $16 dollars, after I paid the waitress told me that the food would be ready in 10 minutes, I told her that was fine, that I would wait outside, outside there are some tables that for me were more comfortable than waiting inside, the restaurant It was empty, there was only one customer inside near the window where I was waiting and so I could see inside, the food passed too long and she never took it out of the kitchen at least so I could see that it was ready if she didn't want to take it somewhere. I was waiting, exactly 30 minutes passed, and the food was never ready to pick up, so I went in and asked her if it was ready, when she said she would check, I heard that it was ready and what she did was grab a plastic bag to pack it When she gave it to me I asked her if it was ready because she hadn't given it to me? I'm waiting too long, she says, "I FORGOT"... I told her, can't you see I'm waiting? The food had been ready for a long time so she could simply take it to the front and she didn't do it. I asked her to eliminate the tip I had left. She responded, offended, that because of the tip I left her, she's not going to die, no. apologizing, simply offended, as if it were her house and I was one more person she scolded, you forgot that you are working and you are offering a service. It is not the first time that this has happened to me, on other occasions they spend their time checking the phones and I have to wait for them to finish, I repeat yesterday was enough, and I share this so that the owner takes action on the matter, the worst service as a result of this you don't enjoy the food; However, if you like receiving bad service you can definitely come here. Nothing more to add, I will say that I once received food, which was already stale.

This place is nasty and would not pass a health inspection on any given day. There are bugs everywhere, the tables were very dirty, and the bathrooms nasty. They were not busy in the slightest. Only 2 other people eating in the restaurant. The employees assume white people cannot speak Spanish and talked horribly about my husband and I after we told them the food was bad. We ended up paying full price AND left a tip despite me only taking 1 bite of my 3 tacos and spitting it out in a napkin. The waitress was horrible and poorly attentive. She was more concerned about texting on her phone. We left and went to another restaurant.
