White cheese sauce is delicious! Mole enchiladas are also really good. They have a good selection of flavored margaritas & mojitos .

I went here with my family after a long day at Legoland. We loved the chips & queso , piña coladas , and great authentic food. We will gladly return.

Jase Laudadio

Got the Tostada Grande ... loved it! The food and service are great here. One thing though... DO NOT let them sit you in the lounge area patio chairs. They are too short and awkward for those tables.

Erich Cervantez

Sit in the lounge or at the bar , even if you're ordering dinner . With TV 's and more seating options, it's the best way to experience Miguels

Chris Cegielski

Attentive service and plenty of menu options to satisfy all. Pretty big kids menu too.

Kyle is an awesome bartender ! Ask him to make you their Ultimate Margarita...and you'll love the jalapeño white sauce they serve with chips for free!

Brenda Mezquita

Camarones Jalisco are amazing!!! Who could ask for more shrimp with cheese wrapped in bacon in white sauce yum

Sean Miller

Their queso dip is the bomb! Love their fish tacos too.

Gemma Ancheta-Aquino

The white cheese dip was delish! The chile relleno was good too. Rice and refried beans needs more work.

Lee Collings

Fabulous service from Cassie and all the staff . Great food. Glad we found it.

John Shannon

Try the Enchiladas suizas with beef (shredded) instead of chicken . Excellent service . Thank you.

Jessica Flood

Food is fast, felt slightly rushed... But overall great food and service

Lynnette Coverly

Order any of the fish entrees! It's all fresh!

Doug W

Like many have mentioned, the queso blanco dip with the free chips is great, but after that the rest is just kinda meh. Not bad, but for southern CA not up to what you expect for Mexican food .

Pedro Saenz

The food was excellent and the wait staff quite friendly .

Ginny Priebe

The jalapeño blanco queso dip that they serve with the chips is AMAZEBALLS!!!! I am licking the ramekin!!!!

Talk2Q

The carnitas were well-seasoned. The rice and beans needed some work though.

Brenda Price

Great Bean & Corn Enchilada

Lauren Little

We decided to come here on a whim. Vegetarian selection is pretty much nonexistent. Even the rice has chicken stock it.

Michael Urueta

Enchiladas suizas are very good. DO NOT order the Miguel's ice tea unless you like the taste of watered down cough syrup .

Michael Benninger

This is one of my favorite restaurants

Beautiful restaurant , good service , and the food is pretty average. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again.

Mehul Patel

Carne asada and margaritas

Go someplace else if you're wanting great service. Good food but service is poor as often as not.
