I don't usually leave bad reviews, but the service here was really disappointing. After we were…read moreseated and got our food, no one came by even once to check on us, not to ask how the food was, not to refill water, not even to offer extra napkins. The lack of attention made the whole experience feel rushed and unwelcoming. On top of that, the food just wasn't that good. Definitely not coming back. No suelo dejar malas críticas, pero el servicio aquí fue realmente decepcionante. Después de que nos sentamos y conseguimos nuestra comida, nadie vino ni una sola vez a ver cómo estábamos, no a preguntar cómo estaba la comida, ni a rellenar el agua, ni siquiera a ofrecer servilletas adicionales. La falta de atención hizo que toda la experiencia se sintiera apresurada y poco bienvenida. Además de eso, la comida no era tan buena. Definitivamente no volveré.

Restaurant is clean, and is more spacious than it appears from the outside. A few tables are available if you prefer to eat in. I ordered at the counter, service was prompt. Isela's appears to be a family business, bilingual help was at the counter. The tamales were good, chicken verde was quite picante. All were flavorful, I did not detect any fatty or gristly bits. Prices are moderate.

However, they didn't have the strawberry tamales ready when I placed my order so I substituted for a pineapple one. They were delicious, both green (semi-spicy) and pineapple tamales. I placed my order via phone, it was hot & fresh once I arrived. Staff was friendly. I'll definitely be coming back! UPDATE: I also got a tamal oaxaqueño- rajás con queso. Very delicious. It's got the right amount of ingredients and not too much masa. The rajas were spicy, huge plus, for my liking.

The limited menu is served counter-side, from steaming cauldrons- when they are gone, they are gone! We ate a few onsite, standing up, before we ordered a few dozen to go.

We have already returned for a tamale special trip.

Genuine Mexican tamales, consistently good with the right amount of filling. Though my one critique…read morewould be the chicken tamales. Meat is too dry, generous chunks of breast meat, could improve if meat was minced and maybe a touch more sauce. We come back regularly. Also don't pass up their champurrado. It's very good!!!

The food, service, and ambience were truly amazing. I don't say that lightly about many places…read more Let's start with the food: it was very well-seasoned, and the portion sizes were generous. This ties into the excellent service, as the food came out relatively quickly. The staff was friendly and engaged in conversation. One standout employee, Jose, continually checked to ensure that we had everything we needed and addressed any issues we had promptly. The ambience was clean, with staff wearing gloves while cooking. They were consistently cleaning, wiping down tables, and sweeping the floors. These are just a few aspects I look for when visiting a restaurant or food establishment.

My only con is it can be pricey but I get it - inflation so I won't dock them completely. My go to are steak taco dinners. Guacamole can be a hit/miss. When it's a hit, it's fantastic!

My father and I shared a Mariscos Molcajete. As the name indicates, it is served in a large molcajete. It consists of three kinds of shrimp, some with head and leg on, the Langostino and then small room along with half the legs of a crab, and one claw and a few scallops and bits of octopus and some other things thrown in. The sauce is a red sauce with a nice peppariness. They start by bringing you several hard, flat corn tortilla shells, along with some salsa Verde and some ceviche paste with carrots and other things in it It is a good place for a quick simply prepared version of seafood The decor is plain and simple

If there's one thing I know from my brief life, it's never piss off a Mexican…read more Using that mantra, I've pissed off the Burrito Gods. I cheated on El Farol with this closer place (just by two blocks) and it's been two days and those BGs are still beating me up. I swung in here after an insanely hectic week at work that was not gonna get better anytime soon. Utilizing the free night I may have for the next sixteen months, I was determined to hit up The Jug and needed food. Well, I thought for the sake of Yelping someplace new, I' d hit it. And now it's whooping me up hardcore. The beef tacos are small. Four bites worth of greasy meat that really didn't do it for me. Even with sour cream, avocado and lettuce. I moved on to the Widowmaker- the Chicken Burrito. I figured it out, Burritos are like penises. They come in many different sizes and there can be more than burrito that is pleasing. I found the Stumper. A hand and a half wide and only the size of my hand, this stomach destroyer looked impressive if taking the prior into account. That's where the fun ends. By the end of my fourth bite, a map of Hawaii was left on my tray and luckily not on me. The grease that spilled out was a warning sign that I chose to ignore. I continued with this super messy penisburrito. I had it finished in ten minutes and needed twenty napkins to wipe the destroyer off of my face. So what I have learned: I learned that when you find a place that serves an amazing burrito, at amazing hours, you don't cheat on 'er. No, you don't. Until then, find me curled up in bed, next to a picture of myself with an El Farol burrito.
