    Molcajete Ranchero
    Mackenzie B.

    Real Authentic Mexican cuisine and a wide variety of options to choose from. You start off with a bad of chips with salsa and refried bean dips. I had a watermelon margarita (made fresh!) and my husband had a Michelada. We ordered the Molcajete Ranchero as our meal and it fed two people no problem. Everything was excellent from the service to the food. Highly recommended!

    Fajitas side plate

    Came in on Sunday for dinner. They were busy but we were quickly seated. Staff were nice and attentive. Food came out quick and was very good! Everything had flavor and was hot. The fajitas had a good amount of veggies which I appreciate. I think one negative was the price. 2 beers and 2 meals was $70 which is pretty steep I think.

    Since moving here to grants pass, this is the best and only Mexican restaurant I go to! The service is always amazing, great food and drinks! I have tried many things on the menu and every dish is just perfection. Flavors, presentation, and quantity. Love love love this place

    Mexican pizza with beef

    We came in and had a great meal. We are from Southern California so we are used to a specific style of Mexican food. Our meal was different but it was tasty and satisfying. I got a vegetarian burrito which was enormous. I split it in half and saved it for tomorrow. My wife got a Mexican pizza which was also enormous. The kids got kids quesadillas with French fries. My parents go carnitas tacos and a chili relleno. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Service was good despite it being pretty busy.

    I love the vibe at El Molcajete. We've been a few times now and have no complaints. The portions are huge and definitely shareable. The drinks are good and I really like their salsa. Service is usually pretty quick and efficient. They have a great outdoor patio which I always like.

    SO GOOD! My husband who hates beans are up all the refried beans. My chicken was so uniquely flavored and juicy, best I've ever had! The rice was a little underwhelming. The Mexican slaw was so surprisingly good, and added a nice balance to the dish. The free salsa was pretty vinegary and we didn't prefer it. Will definitely be back!

    Salsa for ceviche
    J C.

    Wow get the ceviche de pescado! So good! It comes with cucumber and avocado. Not too spicy but so so flavorful and fresh! Service was spectacular. Festive atmosphere.

    One chicken, one beef enchilada...

    Solid mex food choice in Grants Pass. There's quite a large selection of Mexican restaurants here. This ranks in the top three.

    The food and service are excellent. Shredded beef enchilada, red sauce, rice and beans are amazing! Thank you Molcajete:-)

    Yesterday my wife, a close friend, and myself visited for a late lunch (just after 1pm)....my wife…read morehad ordered a fish taco, and two chicken street tacos. Sadly, she was not pleased at all. Her fish taco was pretty much without any fish, and the chicken street tacos were tasteless. Meanwhile, I'd ordered a ground beef crispy taco, and it wasn't bad and just ok, and not the least bit greasy (a plus). The two ground beef enchiladas I'd ordered were a disappointment. I did post a pic of one of them after I got it home (the other I'd already ate) and sadly, there was no enchilada sauce of any consequence to spoon over the enchiladas. Not so much as a spoonful, or two.. just the traces you see in the to-go box. The other strike was the service- while the establishment was indeed pretty clean, and the lunch crowd was pretty much clearing out when we got there with only two orders ahead of us; it wasn't the speed of service (it was acceptable) but the attitude projected by the young guy at the counter. If I had to come up with a phrase if what I perceived, it would be "restrained resentment'. Not the least bit friendly, and utilitarian at the very best. And I'm being generous. The 1 star rating from our experience yesterday, can't be elevated to a 2 star by the ok crispy taco, nor can that crispy taco of mine compensate for the vacant fish taco & stateless chicken street tacos my wife received, nor my almost sauceless ground beef enchiladas. Our friend who ordered, thought her order was passable, but nothing to go back for again. Add those factors to the demeanor of the counter guy, and we'd be hard-pressed to go back. EVER.

    The vegan burrito was fresh and delicious. Birria tacos are great. Not greasy, yet very flavorful…read more Fast service, clean restaurant. Though I didn't dine in, we waited in line and enjoyed the wall painting and Pac-Man machine. Good music (Bad Bunny) was playing on the radio to put a cherry on great service.
