    Fish tacos
    Joe W.

    Fantastic place to eat. Large portions, friendly staff. As a Spanish student I try to use when I can. They were very accommodating and helped me with my language skills. The restaurant is clean and open. Small outdoor seating area. Perfect for couples. A good go to for fresh authentic food. The fish tacos were top notch

    I visited with family while I was in town. It was a bit busy when we arrived, the we were seated quickly and the staff was friendly and got our order going. They offered complimentary chips and salsa. The salsa was mild and had several chunks of raw onion which I try to avoid. They offered happy hour each afternoon, and had discounts on their large margaritas. I didn't partake in one, but my cousin ordered a virgin Mango margarita and she really liked it. I ordered the Enchiladas Del Mar, which was shrimp enchiladas covered in a salsa la crema. It was a funny color of crema sauce, but it tasted good. My meal also came with cole slaw which is something different that I've not had at a Mexican restaurant before. My enchiladas were on corn tortillas and were half the size of the flour option, but that was ok with me. I also got rice and beans, but I only tasted those items and focused my efforts on the enchiladas.

    3 item combo.

    Chips and salsa were included. We loved the salsa. It was more spicy than we normally get without asking for hotter. Great job on that. The margarita was over the top. The dinners were good. Very good for Spokane. Average for Arizona. Very clean restaurant and great wait staff. We were traveling through but would definitely come back if we were local. I highly recommend this place.

    Really nice addition to the North Indian Trail area in Sundance Plaza next to JJ's. Super welcome, chips and salsa and drink order immediately. There's seating in several booths, tables in the center or at the bar.Not sure what's different with their salsa, but it's tasty with good chips. The street taco was small, as they are, and had very good pork carnitas. The chili relleno was really good - nice size and very cheesy. The Chimichanga had the same shredded beef so it was good, too. Kind of standard rice and beans. The Margarita was kind of spendy but came with two salt rimmed glasses and the shaker which poured 3 drinks. Every staff person was friendly and helpful. Wishing them success!

    Drinks menu and strawberry margarita blended with a rim of salt. Love this place!!

    Very nice place. Food was good and fast. Not very much seating and can get busy during dinner rush. Service was decent.

    Good Mexican beer selection

    The food and drinks were great, however the service was appalling…read more Things started out great with our first round of drinks, but our server changed while we were waiting for our joiners. Totally understandable, but our second server couldn't have cared less about our dining experience. We had to ask for a salsa and chip refill six times before it arrived at our table- I wish I was kidding. Our dirty appetizer dishes, plates and drink glasses sat on the table our entire meal, and no one came back to check on us. We also had to flag down our server when we wanted to order our dinner, more drinks, and ask for more water. Most disappointing of all, our graduation party, that no one asked us about, had 8 people meaning this awful service got tipped 18%. I completely understand having automatic gratuity on large parties, but the service needs to be worth that 18% if you're going to charge it. This was our first and last time at Molé. The food and drinks truly were good, but the bad service outweighs the good eats.

We found Molé restaurant along our walkway and decided to make a pit stop. Thankfully, there weren't a whole bunch of people yet. It was a gorgeous sunny day so we sat outside with a beautiful view overlooking the Spokane River. It was not a clear view due to an obstruction of some leafy vine plants that covered the railing. That made it not so pleasant. In order to truly see the view, you literally had to stand. It would've been best to have bar height tables and chairs to capture the view and the dining experience outside would be lovely. The interior of the restaurant is pretty large with nice decor, art mural, clean and comfortable ambiance. Our server was nice and made recommendations. We were offered complimentary chips and salsa which we enjoyed. The salsa was good. I ordered the Baja Fish tacos which were delicious. I enjoyed it paired with horchata drink. My daughter ordered the Empanadas Fritas. She stated was pretty good. We would return to try other items on the menu.

They said it had a nice charred flavor and very tender. I had the taco salad, which was good and had plenty of toppings to make it exciting. It also had a lot of meat so it felt like a full meal. My husband had the Menudo and he devoured it. Highly recommend. Another kid had the street tacos, and although he saw a burrito, walked by that he wished he ordered, he still loved his tacos. We had to drive from the north side of the city to the South Hill to get to this location, but it was worth it. I believe my family has a new favorite restaurant to get delicious Mexican food. The restaurant is small, but that added to the charm. And many tables were full, which means the locals also enjoy this place. Bonus fact: they have different types of salsa for your chips. A mild version and spicy versions. I recommend trying them all.

The food was amazing, the people were great, and I was excited to come back. Yesterday, my girlfriend and I planned a date night and decided to order from here again. Since we have kids, we did pickup. We drove about 25 minutes, then waited another 25 minutes because the line was packed which I didn't mind because the food was that good the first time. But this time? Completely different experience. I ordered a bean burrito with cheese... and it had no beans. Just rice and cheese in a tortilla. Then the nachos, honestly, for $27, this was unacceptable. Dry chips, unmelted cheese, some tomatoes thrown on top, no meat, no beans just thrown together with no care. It looked and tasted like an afterthought. What made it worse is the lack of accountability. I tried calling multiple times last night and again this morning no answer. Calls just ring or don't go through. I even tried calling from different numbers. Nothing. At this point, it's not even about the money it's the principle. Mistakes happen, but not being able to reach anyone or have them make it right is frustrating. I really wanted to keep supporting this place because the first experience was great, but this completely missed the mark. If you go, just be aware the quality and consistency might not be what you expect.
