    Chimichanga and burrito, shredded and ground beef.
    Jenny V.

    Rice and Beans were good. The meat flavors were off!! The salsa was a strong tomato sauce/paste base, was okay. Their food was the most different tasting Mexican that I'd ever had and don't want to eat experience again. Did not take any leftovers home!

    Seafood Taco
    Jonna S.

    I was craving for fish taco when I was on my way home from work. I saw this restaurant along Airway Heights and stopped by here. I ordered Seafood taco with fish; Honestly it's the bomb, very delicious, cooked to perfection. The service is great, quick. I like the ambience, the background music makes you dance while you eat. I love everything about this place.

    This restaurant is fairly well hidden not far from Walmart. We arrived for lunch on Sunday just after it opened. They were ready to serve us and our food arrived quickly. As we were here early the whole restaurant was very quiet. I had my usual burrito and we also ordered three taco salads. All the food tasted good. The chips and salsa were fresh and also quite tasty. Although I ordered chicken, my burrito was filled with hamburger. Not a major problem as I had already eaten half the burrito before I realized their mistake. This restaurant should be given an opportunity to prove its worth.

    Tostado

    Skipping breakfast and going directly to lunch? Want a place that opens earlier than most? This is the place. No waiting around until 11 if you are desperate for chips/salsa and some Mexican food, as this place opens its doors at 10:30 a.m. Located in Airway Heights, there's plenty of parking and plenty of tables inside. There is also a lunch menu, but I ordered off the regular menu for the tostado (ground beef). Not my usual go-to Mexican meal of pork burrito, but it was early. Solid guacamole and good flavors all around. Depending on how hungry you are, you should be filled up on whatever you order as portions are generous. Salsa and chips come complimentary and were placed on our table lightening fast. The cabbage salsa is a tad dry for my tastes, but mixing the two salsas together resulted in close to perfection. I did like the wall art and the interior décor, but I thought the prices were a little high on the lunch menu.

    Three Enchiladas Combo
    Faran S.

    This was my first time here ever, I really enjoyed it and the staff was very friendly. I ordered the Three Enchiladas Combo and I got full and their salsa tasted very good with their chips. Hopefully in the near future I'll be able to return and try more of the menu items they have but if you're in the Airway Heights Area hit up the restaurant and try it out.

    Food was absolutely amazing! Came w a group of friends and all of the food came out great! Including alcohol beverages! Definitely will be returning! :) The food is very traditional Mexican probably the best in Spokane!

    Quick, hot, food!

    Great, authentic, Mexican food! The staff is very kind, the restaurant is clean, the bathroom is clean, and most importantly, the food is fresh, hot, and at the table QUICKLY! After being seated, like all Mexican restaurants, I was given fresh salsa & hot chips, BUT ALSO a pico de gallo mix. Many restaurants charge for pico.

    Chips and salsa are

The lights above the booths were made with sombreros- charming. I had a basic Margarita and it was nicely balanced. The salsa with the chips was very hot so we asked if they had a milder salsa and they did. We split a #5 Combo that had a shredded beef burrito and a chili relleno. It was served with refried beans (delicious) and rice (better than most). A couple of notes... sour cream ($2.95 extra) and guacamole ($3.95) were add ons if you wanted them. They also charge $2.00 per basket of chips after the first. We didn't need another, just noticed it at the bottom of the menu. Street tacos were good, served in double corn tortillas. The shredded beef was very moist and good. The chili relleno was really good, very cheesy. Our server was prompt and friendly, checking back to see how things were. The menu prices were above what I expected but the food was very good.

I really loved the decorations inside- colorful, festive, and some really neat Dia De Los Muertos styled paintings. Our server was great and went through the menu...lots of selections. I wasn't super hungry so I got 3 street tacos (1 al pastor, 1 carnitas and 1 tinga). My son got an al pastor quesadilla and my wife got pollo tacos. The chips and salsa were good and held us over until the food came. When the food came they also brought out 3 more salsas in squeeze bottles and all of these were great too. All 3 of my street were very flavorful and all incredibly tender. Sometimes chicken and carnitas can be pretty bland but not here...these were exactly what I was looking for. My family loved their food as well and we left wishing we had a Los Habaneros Taqueria back in AZ! When I was paying for our meal at the cashier several people were picking up to go meals and heard we were from AZ visiting and both parties said we found the best spot in Spokane for Mexican food. I don't doubt them for a minute...this was dynamite.

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.

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.

I got the taco salad with traditional ground beef and my friend ordered the 2 enchiladas combo meal, one with ground beef and the other with chicken. Food arrived pretty quick and both plates were hot and looked super fresh. My taco salad shell had a great cook to it, not overly crunchy hurting your gums but definitely not soggy either. It was a perfect tender crunch. Visually the lettuce, tomato, and shredded cheeses were bright, crisp, and really fresh. The ground beef was flavorful and not overly seasoned and I loved that it was still juicy, not greasy. Although it was a simple taco salad, each ingredient stood out on its own and the fresh guac and sour cream complimented the meal well making for a nice lunch. My friend said the enchilada meal is a fav and also favored the ground beef vs the chicken. However, it's worth noting the chicken was good too but today it seemed like the ground beef was on point for the both of us. For being lunch time, there were quite a few tables of lunch-goers but oddly the ambience was chill and the noise level was low. We had 2 different servers taking care of our table and had no issues whatsoever. We'll be back again!
