El Molcajete Mexican Restaurant is a hidden gem that offers delicious and unique dishes. The specialty, El Molcajete, is a must-try and is praised for its exceptional taste. The restaurant serves fresh and flavorful food, with highlights including juicy tender al pastor tacos, fresh tortillas, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime that create authentic flavors. Standouts like the steak, quesatacos, and guacamole are also worth mentioning. The gorditas are well-seasoned and satisfying. The service is commendable, with friendly and welcoming servers, although some reviews indicate the restaurant can be understaffed during busy times. The atmosphere is spacious and comfortable, featuring a cozy layout and decorations. While there may be minor issues, such as limited refills on horchata and concerns about portion sizes, many agree that the wait is worthwhile. With its great food and service, El Molcajete remains a top choice for a memorable dining experience.
