Cafe Ole Reviews
Great Mexican restaurant for tourist since they know no better. But the Mexican rice was unevenly textured and pasty. Also, they put salty seasoning on their chips for the guac. Who does that.? The waiter's response was salty chips are the best, and we only serve them seasoned! In addition, they forget to remove the avocado sticker from the avocado before making the guac. It was pretty disgusting to have spit out bits of sticker at the table.
I just wanted to say that our waiter, “WES”, was THEE best! My family and I went to visit this restaurant from California and we chose to eat dinner here this past Saturday 29th of November 2025. Wes, if you see this…thank you for your service, kindness, and overall your honesty! Food was awesome but you Wes went above and beyond. Thank you SO much! We appreciate you!
The food and service was amazing. Will definitely go back.
