Great food! It was better than expected, the chips and salsa were fantastic, the food portions wont let you down and the service was top notch. First time in the city, Yelp helped me find the right place again. I can't wait until I get another assignment in the area. read more

I went to Estrellas with my husband and buy was it good! I ordered the shrimp cocktail and he got the carne asada plate, both were fantastic!! The medium Margarita is a farely large size and tastes great. Also their flour tortilla chips are to die for!! I will definitely be going back to try more items on the menu. The staff was also very good! read more

Best chips in salsa I've ever had and by far the best restaurant in Fallbrook. Staff is very friendly and I like that fact that it is family run and owned. read more

Best place to go for authentic Mexican food. This place is a small place and always had people in it... meaning amazing food. I tried their Fajitas a la Parilla and it was so tasty. Some "Mexican" food restaurants add too much salt to their dishes or are drenched in grease or oil or or have a type of canned food taste to it but not Estrellas. Recipes are true to what a real Mexican family would make at home. I tried their Chile Relleno and it was mild and well seasoned. A definite must have for next time. So the food was amazing. The drinks...oh boy, do they have great drinks! I saw the bartender make a blended Chamoy Margarita and had to have one. Unfortunately, their blender broke so I had to take mine on the rocks but even then it was awesome! The taste was very similar to a mango paleta con chile. The rim of the glass was coated with Tajin so it gave it a Lil kick. I ordered a regular one, then a bigger one, then an OMG sized one which I had my family help me with. It was delicious! So, definitely hit this place up for amazing food and drinks. You might have to wait a while but it is worth it. The prices are reasonable as well. read more

Estrella's - Chamoy Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Fallbrook, California

A local legend finally at a new location The best never ending chips and salsa period. Menu is varied enough for any palate. Kids meals are a good value and complete - The place is always full , even if it were three times larger there would be a wait at peak times.. Go see Miss Vicki behind the bar (part time) she is awesome ! read more

Wow. Just wow. Incredible food to justify the line out the door. The guacamole was so smooth fresh and creamy, a must for an appetizer. Make sure to order the home made hot sauce with your meal. Not too hot and overpowering, but flavorful with heat just to light up the tastebuds. All the way from Kentucky, would make the trip again. read more

Good food, great service. Only downfall, not enough seating. Often enough came there and no where to seat, so we're forced to try somewhere else. Tortilla chips and Salsa are pretty good. The chips are puffed? So they melt in your mouth. read more

We missed you! So happy you are back and nothing has changed. Great food! Even though it was crowded, the staff didn't rush us and gave great service. Food was excellent and Margarita's are the best! My choice for Mexican food! read more

It's a homey mexican place. Food is AMAZING! The best mexican place I've been at. Chips and salsa kept on coming our entire stay. Our server was quick and attentive. The food was very tasty, spicy and in big portions. Only negative is that the place is very cold, and there's not many tables, but that won't stop me from returning. read more

Estella's is the best place in town! It's a small place but they are opening a larger restaurant! Carne asada is amazing. Perfect margaritas! Great beer selection! Chips and salsa...yum. Bean and cheese burrito is soo good. Even a salad with chicken comes out perfectly cooked every single time! read more

Their food is great, their chips are amazing, but the service definitely leaves things to be desired. They are often busy, but even when they aren't the service doesn't speed up at all. read more

Best Mexican food around! Very authentic and great service!!! Sit at the bar... The bartenders are the best around and will take great care if you. read more

Love the chips and salsa! We drive all the way from Murrieta just for them!

Great food! Great customer service! I love the new place they really needed the extra space.

I was so sad to see they were being closed down in Bonsall, but to my surprise they reopened closer to where I live in a brighter (but smaller) place in town. The food tastes better than ever, the Margaritas are a butt kicker and yes....it gets crowded. So expect a wait at peak times and just relax and smell the food! I especially love the entire "specialties" section from their Carnitas to their Chipotle Sauce covered chicken ( hot food lovers rejoice!). The entire family is there serving and cooking, you won't get any better authentic food. No white wash nacho cheese sauce here. I am getting hungry just writing this...time for more Estrella's! read more

Just finished eating at this Mexican cuisine restaurant. The food here is excellent, one of the best Mexican restaurants I have eaten at. My husband had the chicken fajitas and it was amazing! The guacamole is very, very good. I have no complaints about the food here. This restaurant was relocated from Bonsal to Fallbrook due to eminent domain when hwy 76 was widened. The only drawback is the restaurant is a little small and can get noisy at times. I am hoping this family owned business will be so successful that it will expand! read more

Am sorry but I went there on Monday night , and the tables where dirty , all the employees where gather together in a corner there was no hostess , no one said nothing when we walk in and it took one of the drunk employees like 3 minutes to noticed we were there and when he did he said sit anywhere u want , I ask him to Clean a table no one was doing nothing so we just walked out! It was so much better when they were in Bonsall read more

I went to Estrellas restaurant on Monday with my family. We chose takeout. The beef fajitas were green colored and tasted like Sundays leftovers. The chipotle chicken was cooked within an inch of their short life. The only person satisfied with their meal got fish burritos, which thankfully can't reasonably be held over and served a day later. My granddaughter wouldn't eat. What a waste of 50.00. Won't happen again. read more

We were in our van literally RIGHT OUTSIDE the door waiting. There were others waiting in front of us. Some fat nasty guy who said he worked there and was his day off told the hostess to scratch our name off after we waited patiently for 45 minutes! The other patrons were telling us he was a dick to and to tell the hostess but we left. Why waste more time. Have fun with your own dbag employees! read more

We discovered Estrella's during the year we lived in Fallbrook. Having moved back to Orange County, we still eat here regularly because the food is so delicious. Our favorites are Chicken Cancun, albondigas soup, the jalapeño poppers, and any of the steak dishes, but you can't go wrong with anything you choose. read more

Estrella's - Mexican Near Me - Fallbrook, California

Great place- always great food- love the mix of tortilla chips they use- Service is always good- Thank you

When you go to a restaurant for lunch you expect a lunch menu/prices. Not here, full price. We both ordered a Carne asada quesadilla for lunch. The quesadilla came in a form We had never experienced before this Joint. It was like a huge burrito cut in sections. Not a true quesadilla and here is the best part, almost NO CHEESE. We will not be going back there. menu. The service was good and the meal was prompt but he chef was too inovative for us. read more

We've been wanting to try this place for months, but every time we happen by, there's a line of waiting patrons wrapping around the building. Today I went for lunch with a group of friends and was lucky enough to score a table. The restaurant is small, the staff is friendly. The food is very tasty, but I'm not sure if it's the best Mexican food I've found locally. One major plus? The portions are beyond generous, they're downright huge. read more

Best Mexican food in town!! You must try their mango chamoy Margarita!!! I will never order a regular margarita ever again! Chips and salsa is my favorite too! The restaurant is very small, yet it is very homely (not sure if that's even a word ). Must try it!! read more

I had the fish taco plate, pretty tasty. The service was very good. Nice location, full bar big plus!!

This place has good food at affordable prices. Ask for the spicer salsa because it's delicious. The meat had a good flavor and not dry. The portions are huge. Only downfall, it's a small place and we weren't attended to quickly when we walked in but once we were seated, it was good service. I would go back. read more

Where is that button where you can give a place 6 or 7 stars? Wow sometimes 5 stars just isn't enough. Needless to say I love Estrella's. Easily the best restaurant in Fallbrook and probably my favorite and best Mexican restaurant. I've never been disappointed here not even close. I've had the grilled chicken burrito which is as close to perfection as a meal can be. The carne asada fries are amazing. The staff is friendly and always do an amazing job. Stop wasting your time reading this and just go...like right now...alright if your still reading this I'm going right now. read more

Still loving this local Mexican restaurant that's run and operated by a local Fallbrook family. The food is great as well as the drinks. My wife always enjoys the margaritas. The chips are also very tasty and super fresh. I always order the fajitas as well as the Chili Relleno, Can't say a bad thing about this place. read more

Good food and good service! Nice to have a yummy family owned restaurant. Great atmosphere for out of town guests too!

We ate here on Valentines Day. It was very busy & we waited about 45 min to be seated, the restaurant is very small. The food was decent. Chips were homemade & salsa was good! I had the tostada salad with carnitas. The shell was good! The pork was a little greasy but was tasty. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had, but I would eat here again. read more

Literally one of the best Mexican food I have ever had in my 45 years life. When stepping in the restaurant, I was not even hungry at all. They first started the show by putting one of the best delishes salsa front of me, rich taste coming from real organic tomatoes, produced locally, then chips fresh from the kitchen still hot! Then we ordered fajitas, it came in a regular plate instead of iron cast platters, don't worry! I prefer my fajitas this much delicious in a regular plate instead of pricy restaurant's sizzling but plastic ingredients and over priced fajitas ... I say I wish I lived in the town.... Poor us, we don't get this quality Mexican food even at the restaurants like Javier or El Matador in OC! Real but real Mexican food is here! read more

Awesone food. The chips and salsa you get with your meal are so good. Huge selection of tequilla and nice draft beer selection. I got the fish tacos and my buddy got the quesadillas. Huge portions and everyrhing was delicious. Will be returning. read more

Delicious!!! Authentic mexican food. Great margaritas and decent prices. We literally have never tried anything we didn't love. Bonus - they expanded and opened a 2nd location to cut down on wait times. read more

Best mexican food that I've had in Oceanside so far, everything was mouth watering good and they really know how to make a drink!

Churros. Need I say more? but seriously. The have awesome carne asada and I regularly stop by just to pick up their chips and salsa for snacks. The bartender is great and makes great mangoritas read more

Incredible service and amazing food. Definitely love and reccomend this place. Killer margaritas as other yelpers have mentioned, but the food is also just as amazing. Very good chipotle sauce that you can put on anything and thier salsa you could eat with a spoon. I know they are a small version of Casa De Estrella, but 100% over I would go here more than the bigger restaurant. Highly recommended!!!! This was the last Mexican place in town to try and it is by far my favorite. read more

Samy helped us. He was fantastic. The salsa I could have just drank it. I'm very picky about my Mexican food. THe carnitas reminded me of my dad's carnitas and the coctel de camarones was the bomb. Yum yum yum. read more

Just had Estrella's for the first time, I ordered a grilled chicken burrito (I added a ton of stuff on it & they were happy to oblige) my husband had 2 enchiladas with red sauce... My burrito was amazing! Excellent quality, salsa was outstanding, service was knowledgable & friendly. However, my husband's enchiladas were some of the worst we'd ever had. They sauce was dried into the tortilla and tasted burnt. I'm not saying we won't be back, but we won't be ordering those again. read more

Long wait around 8:00 pm on a Saturday evening, large, fresh, very appetizing portions, fairly attentive service and waitress check-back...I was disappointed that there weren't shredded beef hard shell tacos on the menu, but if they're ever added they will probably be amazing! read more
