An 80-year-old Mexican hacienda-style restaurant and one of the best in Los Angeles featuring the delicious fajitas de camarones , the Baja Special, and the genius George’s Margarita .

Joseph Mundy

Good food, GREAT service, reasonably priced--a true family restaurant experience with authentic Mexican panache ! If you're in Pasadena and haven't been to Mijares for Dinner --GET OVER THERE NOW!

Started as a tortilla-making business out of a family home in 1920. In the 1940's they moved to this location & opened a restaurant . It burnt down in the late '70s & was rebuilt in 1984.

Of course I'm biased, but this place is my home. I grew up here, my mom grew up here, and my grandmother grew up eating here. Good things like this never change. Always great, always satisfying.

Best Mexican restaurant I've been to in awhile. Fantastic salsa and guacamole ! Friendly servers , amazing service, and great mariachi band .

90-year-old restaurant with the strongest house margarita in town . Plus happy hour is every day until 7pm--buy any drink and a Mexican food buffet is on the house. SWEET.

I travel 50 miles to eat here and it's worth it! Been doing it for years!

My grandmother started this restaurant in 1921. As a family we have all worked and grown up here. Order a 16D and see if anyone knows what it is. A quizado burrito with cheese sauce . Amazing!

Duke Dispo

They were not kidding about margarita ! Very cool and laid back ambience. 4 *stars!

A lot of history here, good authentic Mexican food , cheap happy hour but only served in the bar .

Eat inside during the summer, sunday brunch is worth it more than single entrees. churros are amazing too!

The skinny margarita doesn't taste like alcohol but still gives you a kick!

Avoid the place, rude hostess , bad service, bland food. A tourist trap, an insult to the charming and friendly character of the mexican people.
