Love the warm side of beans they serve with your chips and salsa ! Delicious
Love everything we've tried here so far!! Enchiladas , steak ranchero , soups ...plus the chips come with both salsa AND warm beans to dip in!!!
Carne asada burrito is a meal and then some! I will be back! A Coke (always Coke , never Pepsi ) with my meal would have been the only thing to make it better!
The atmosphere is super fun! Bean dip is great. Good happy hour .
Cheese enchiladas are the best. Unlimited chip bean dip and salsa . Great service!
The Julio Bermejo margarita and shrimp chimichanga are excellent. Servers are really nice.
The chicken “Enchiladas Suiza ” are just $10.99 and topped with green tomatillo sauce and Mexican cream. Jalapenos optional! - CBS Sacramento Read more
Thai place has great chimichangas and is really beautiful inside and out!
Get the Anniversary Margarita featuring the first ever clear añejo tequila !! It's delish!! Love their margaritas !
Late night Social Hour has great deals: $2 Mexican City Taco & $2 Dos Equis . @ernestosmexfood
Excellent food, service and atmosphere!
The Carnitas lunch plate was the bomb!
I got a Cadillac margarita(el jimador,mix&Grand Marnier) there and it didn't taste right. i watched the bartender make 4 more and he used imitation grand marnier @ $9.50!! Liars!
Large portions ! Go hungry - especially if you eat the chips and salsa and bean dip first.
The queso and salsa are tasty!
Margarita was all ice
House margarita with Nachos . Best Mexican in Sacramento, bar none. Heavy hand when pouring mixed drinks too
Beans beans the musical fruit .
Have the centenario tequila best in house for the price
Margaritas
Extremely slow service two tables served sooner than us, server forgot the guacamole . Wait staff inattentive overall. Food was good. Service not worth the price. Won't be coming back.
Called ahead for a birthday and they printed up birthday signs for the table, classy & nice.
if the place is even remotely full, they'll say its a 20 min wait and to wait at the bar . as soon as you order a drink, your pager will go off. nice scam.
Buy 4 get 2 free...SHOTS of Don Julio !!!! Do it big!!!!
Happy hour on Friday doesn't start until 9pm!:(
Best thing on the menu is Carnitas Nachos . Everything else, just so-so.
The food was really good. I see why it has been raved about through town
Best carnitas you'll find in town - take it from a native Mexican.
Beautiful chocolate cake
Good soup ! Enchiladas are so so.
Tamales are THE best ever!
They got tacos .
What a great Flan
Two words - Cadillac Margarita
Was told this is the best mexican restaurant in midtown.

Interesting choice in salsa . Decent enough tho.
Draft Dos Equis Amber is the coldest best beer in Sac.
Make sure your Hungry
Albodingas soup . Yummy!
Nachos are the shit
not a lot of flavor but it was decent. Good chips and bean dip
Huge portions but not particularly good food. Greasy, but bland.
Food is pretty good. Service is terrible
OMG you gotta go
Drink an overpriced margarita that won't register on a breathalyzer on an empty stomach.
Huevos Divorciados !!
Regular (street-style) tacos were fantastic, the pollo asado & pastor in particular. - Christine Ward
