    All the vegetables and meat in the soup

    I used to love this place when I was younger, im not sure what happened. Disappointed in the potion sizes. My mom went in to pick my up a soup since I have the flu; when I opened it was super greasy and there was hardly any meat or vegetables. When I called to see if they can remake it the man on the phone was very rude; resulting in me just going in person just to return it . Once I had arrived i showed the man and he just looked at me like I was stupid. Then there were people walking in and they said something about the soup and I did give them a little warning. The man goes "not to your standards or what". No sir not to my standards at all or anyone's!! That shouldn't even be served. Paying 20 bucks for all oil and no veggies basically. I'll pass

    Carne asada burrito

    Great Mexican food and we are from so cal so we know. Great service, Greeting was nice, prices were fair. The Place was clean and most of all the carne asada and chili Riano were amazing.

    Chile relleno a la carta ( I wanted to ask for it to be bathed in green sauce but this cream sauce is Michelin quality stuff)
    Raul O.

    enjoying it. It's pretty quiet. Food is very grammas kitchen like, just comforting and fulfilling. Service is on par, they stay on top of their customers not in an annoying way. Will def return, I pass here often when visiting fam up north.

    Bagre a la Casa. Catfish with special house sauce. Sauce contains bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, and mushrooms

    Great food and drinks! Not a full bar, but they're willing to work with you to fix you a drink with the available products.

    The perfect hot salsa
    Thomas R.

    Hands down some if not the best Mexican style cuisine I've ever had. The hand mad tortillas were so incredible and packed full of flavor, not to mention the house sauce ( I ordered a pollo a la casa) which is chicken breast with house sauce, and it was so satisfying in every category. I was so happy with every bite, the hot chicken smothered in this house sauce, cured every craving I had for the day. As I type this in the car on the way out, I honestly feel happier. Like my entire mood went from serious, straight out of work, to just relaxed and happy with a full belly. The margaritas were great, I ordered 2. The main thing I want to do is shout out our server. You know who you are, the sweetest woman existent. Such a friendly and kind demeanor. Guys, I failed to get her name, but I forgot my to go box inside, she actually ran it outside to me with a smile on her face, and said, "in case you need something for later" as in when I get hungry. I'm so happy I came here today. This woman alone is the example of the perfect customer service, and she made my entire day better, honestly. Thank you so much Colimas!

    Delicious chili relleno, rice and beans. I love the cream sauce on top.

    Great food. Great staff. Feels like family. Cold beers and great menu options. They've been a Visalia staple for years with good reason.

    Honestly the food speaks for it's self . It's true Hispanic cuisine made authentic. Seasoned perfectly with fresh products. Now if you don't like spice be careful it's made with spices that can make the tastebuds warm up. I love the family that runs it and they make the costs reasonable so you want good food this is the place.

    Love this place for some tasty seafood boils!!! Flavors are on point and you get a decent amount…read morefor the price. We usually get either mild or medium garlic butter, as they both still have a decent spice kick. Of course we get extra corn a a potatoes as well for a few more dollars. They offer a lot more in their menus but we usually stick to the snow crab legs and clams. Staff is always friendly and service is fast. Establishment is always clean and they also have a cute little handwashing station in the dining area! Pretty cool designs for the booths as well with hand written notes and signatures all over!

    My husband and I came here a while back.. (it was a fairly new spot in Visalia that we hadn't…read moretried). When we walked in the vibes seemed cool, only 2 busy tables. The music was a little unsettling for some time for the occasion and setting , but then switched to oldies, and that was nice! Haha the service was mediocre (seems like that most places lately) Food, we shared crab legs shrimp mussels sausage, potatoes with the recommended flavor. But the flavor was basic and really nothing special about it. It was definitely missing something. we unfortunately were both sick for the next 2 days (food poisoning **this was the only thing outside the norm that we ate). We enjoyed each others company Wanted to love it, but it's not for us Glad we got to try a new spot though! $$$$ Oh also this is a costly place. But consider its seafood in the valley.

    First one of the fellow restaurants in Visalia that will accommodate 26 people and seated together…read more Two servers for our group, and unlike other Visalia restaurants they didn't charge a group fee or forced 18% tip or other hidden charges for using a credit card. Tables were clean with utensils and extra plates. Our servers were super friendly and made you feel welcome. Drinks were for various for our group but what unique is that I was unsure of tea because they said it was real and often I'm disappointed because it's not. Yet the server said if you don't like it I'll let you switch drinks. After it was served they checked to make sure I was happy. Needless, to say 26 people you just about see the entire menu served. There was one cheese burger which was cooked properly and with hot fries, fish and chips which had large pieces of fried cod and served with claw slaw. Kids at the table got chicken tenders with fries, which were moist and not over cooked or hard to bite into. Parmesan Crusted Chicken served with mash potatoes and a mixed vegetables. Fantastic chicken not over cooked, super flavorful and moist. Just the right amount of sauce and tomatoes. There were a couple of shrimp linguine Alfredo. Just the right amount of sauce and shrimp. There was a Mariners Seafood Boil, which was stream and seasoned perfectly. Considering the amount of seafood it was great. Now the dish I enjoy myself, Endless Shrimp. Our location you picked three styles which were the Alfredo, coconut and Walt's. The price is 29.99 and is that a value? Yes sir or ma, a great value. Placed my and waited for it. Once it was placed on the table, my server asked what would I like again. Even before starting eating I ordered another Walt's and Coconut shrimp. It less than eight minutes to get the order and they wanted to know which I wanted next. The first plate included 12 rather large butter flyer shrimp. First, Walt's was shrimp was lite batter. Coconut batter was lite again with the right of coconut on it, and Alfredo paste was mixed with flavorful sauce and shrimp placed on top and again not over cooked. Three different shrimp total was 12 and two additional orders of 8 makes 20 shrimp total and probably could have finished two more orders. So with that said it was about $1.49 per shrimp. Sauces were standard cocktail and coconut sauce. I will say I wasn't a fan of the coconut sauce. Got the hush puppies as a side which to me seemed lifeless. They were just kinda bland in taste. Again, the endless shrimp special is well worth the price and I can say the Red Lobster service was outstanding. My last refill of tea the server stated I can bring that in a to go cup. I thank them but no. Normally I would describe two different dishes but today was unique that it was a large group. Thank you Red lobster.

    The service was amazing and personable. I loved the waitress…read more However, the menu prices were ridiculously high. I found the food to be bland and lacking flavor and seasoning. I ordered salmon, which was a very large piece of salmon and it looked delightful, but no flavor at all. It was overcooked so it was a bit dry and I could tell without even asking that this was farm raised pre-frozen salmon. This was not a $30 slice of salmon. It was served on a bed of lettuce.. the lettuce was crisp and fresh and there was an egg included, which was a bit chewy for a hard boiled egg so it was overcooked as well. There were several large slices of tomatoes, which were just too big and probably should've been diced up and served appropriately. There was also some large slices of cucumber and a big slice of onion. There was one little bread stick. It just did not and was not suitable for a restaurant of this caliber/price range. i'd have to say I was very disappointed. The value of the food did not match the price tag. Conclusively very disappointed of this $40 salad.

But I can't stop thinking about the calamari!!! The calamari is the star of the show. It is delicious and a must-try. I went back here and so much has changed!!! The menu has expanded and that is amazing. I always get the shrimp and rice. Sometimes I get fried rice or steamed rice and it has amazing, tasty tempura batter of the calamari. I do recommend getting two plates of calamari!!! It is super addicting. My family and I can't stop eating it because it is that good. Service is amazing!!! I remember it is a family-owned business. My family and I used to remember the owners back when I lived in Lemoore. They are very nice people and will bring you great service and amazing food. Btw it is always packed!!! Parking is also difficult!!! It is in front of a park and it is in an okay place but worth it to go. The ambiance is the same as I remembered. It is big. Before, it was a small shop and hopefully, they expand. I low-key wish there was one in North Cal because my family and I miss the calamari. But it is still nice to visit here and see how this small business became a huge
