    Chile verde enchilada.  Perfection.
    Mark T.

    Wow. Just amazing. I am a long time Yelper and am a Yelp Elite Member so I really try to be objective and very precise with my reviews. Food : Five Stars Atmosphere : Five Stars Staff : Five Stars Price : Four Stars Met with some friends who recommended this fine establishment. Staff was terrific. Polite, efficient, smiling. My wife and I ordered chicken and chile verde enchiladas with refried beans and rice. The rice was unlike any flavor I've ever had. Perfectly cooked and flavored. Same with the beans. The real stars were the enchiladas. Tender meat and flavored perfectly. I can count on one hand how many five stars I have given out. We will definitely be back to see if they can be consistent.

    Dos Tacos Plate (salmon)
    Hallie G.

    Just OK IMO! Came here for a dinner with friends on a Sunday night. Plenty of seating. You order at the register and they bring out your meal to you! My friend got chips for the table and I did enjoy that they had a salsa bar where you get your own salsa. Can never go wrong with chips and salsa! Dos Tacos Plate (3/5): I got the 2 taco plate and you get to choose your choice of meat. I opted for salmon. Additionally, you got your choice of beans and I chose black beans. There was so many toppings on it I could barely taste the fish. It was a bit too overpowering for me. I also thought the rice and beans were just meh. Overall, I had a pretty OK experience. Would not necessarily go out of my way to get this but if I had it again, I wouldn't mind.

    Asada Nachos.

    We stopped on our way to Yosemite. It was a perfect lunch pit stop. We were able to cool the car off (104°F outside) while we sat indoors and had a great meal. We ordered the following: Horchata Shrimp Quesadilla Asada Nachos Chicken Tacos. Meat in the dishes was flavorful. Horchata was very refreshing. Portion size was very generous. We had leftovers for dinner. Pleasant staff. Variety of Salsas in the bar. Well stocked. This will be a must visit lunch stop for us in the future. You should check the restaurant out for sure!

    Chicken Torta

    I have tried Figaro's twice now before I decided to write a review. The first time I ate there was takeout after a 30 minute drive home. I felt as though this isn't a fair judge due to the food not being at the peak. My family and I stopped in after a long road trip to grab a bite to eat. It was 5pm on a Friday night and it was completely empty. About 5 minutes after ordering, party after party came in and made it super busy. The portions of food are massive (they can be split) and the prices are right on par to any other places you may go to in the Central Valley. The cashier was friendly and informative. The service was very quick and the food came out in less than 10 minutes. There wasn't anything super special about our meal that made it memorable. You do have access to their condiment bar to grab salsas and toppings but I believe this is a double edged sword. Previous patrons dirtied the area and depleted them of a few of their salsas. This area was not attended to while we were there and that raises some sanitation issues. Would I come back again? Possibly. I love giving places second chances because there is always room for improvement. However, I would rather support a local mom and pop authentic place in the area before I head back here.

    Let me start off saying I rarely give 1 star reviews but in this case, I felt it was warranted. Our Figaro's in Visalia closed promptly and seemingly without any warning. The Visalia location was amazing! Never had any problems with the food or customer service. Always a 10/10! Welp...the other night when I had a hankering for Mexican food I thought why not try the Figaro's in Tulare. How much different could they possibly be?! Boy was I wrong! You wouldn't even think they were from the same franchise! I went there with my sister. She ordered the steak dos taco plate and I ordered the steak torta plate. We should've immediately known something was up when the waitress carried our plates to us with no potholders and didn't tell us "ooh careful hot plate!" Yikes! Let's start with my torta plate. It seemed like it was an order they forgot about and attempted to re-heat or something. Or maybe the last of the steak, beans and rice scraped together before wanting to start a fresh new batch for my sister cuz her food was pretty good! The whole meal was terrible, top to bottom. My torta bun was extremely soggy which was an immediate turn off when I bit into it. I tried to salvage it by deconstructing it and I was just gonna eat the steak and veggies inside, but the steak was overcooked, a little burnt and scarce. So I moved on to my rice and beans but they were cold! Which leaves the chips aka my last ditch effort to be able to eat something cuz I came in there STARVING and ready to eat a great meal...and they were stale! There was absolutely no redeeming quality for my torta plate. Oh wait, that's not true. The horchata was fine. After taking one bite out of each component of the dish I got the courage to address the issue after my sister finished her delicious, hot and FRESH meal. When I brought my plate up to the cashier and explained I did not care for my meal, and let her know that it was not good and went over my reasons I've stated here, the cashier said something along the lines of "I'm sorry you didn't like it but the chef made it correctly." When I asked if I could get a refund, partial refund, if they could remake the torta plate for me OR if I could get something else the ONLY THING she offered was 20% off my next order there. What?! I would never return to this location! How is this good conflict resolution? After going back and forth with the cashier I accepted the 20% off cuz my sister enjoyed her meal and she could use it. We thought we would be handed a coupon or something somewhat official but I kid you not, the cashier proceeded to grab a yellow sticky note pad and write down my sister's name and cell phone number and that was it. This was the same cashier that took my sister's order and she was so rude. I bet you if my sister WERE to come back to cash in on the "20% off", that sticky note is long gone and the cashier on shift has no idea what we're talking about. That would be the terrible ending to this awful experience. The weird part is the cashier asked if we wanted to box up and take home the disgusting torta plate meal. What? No..no one would want to eat this. I've never been to a restaurant that has ever treated me like this when I was unhappy with a meal. I was flabbergasted that they had no intention or desire to make this right. Just dreadful customer service and food. We will not be back. I forgot to take a picture of the torta plate but here's the receipt as proof of purchase.

    Chicken taco, cheese enchilada with rice and beans
    Jan F.

    I enjoyed my meal here. The staff was all smiles and friendly. I couldn't read the menu board, so a staff member gave me a paper menu. I had a cheese enchalada and a chicken taco with rice and beans. It was very tasty. Although nowhere on the menu did it state that there were chili's in the cheese enchalada. Therefore I had heartburn after eating. While I enjoyed the food, the food did not enjoy me.

    Mango grilled chicken salad

    The restaurant is super clean. It feels really nice. A lot of space to sit .the Food is so yummy!! I was surprised that it was because it's not an authentic Mexican food place, so it seems, but it is authentic. The sauces are stupendous .. it actually is better than Some ..the Asada and Barbacoa tacos are so yummy and the meat was so big and chunky .my favorite to get is the mango salad with grilled chicken and the pineapple water with orange are the it's the best combo. The girls there very sweet.. The only complete that I have is a younger guy I was told he is the. supervisor ..on Saturday nights .ones night he stood there over-the-counter, staring at us with a mean expression .. pressuring us to leave when they were still 25 minutes to go. We were already picking up helping out, so the waitress wouldn't have to wait for us, even though the waitress was so sweet about it and said to not worry about it .it was so uncomfortable having him stare us down ..other than that. Everything is great. If I was the owner, I would seriously put a stop to that type of attitude from the supervisor rushing people out so he could close early before time. if the owner sees this, I would definitely put a stop to that behavior because from that person alone can ruining a business.

    Shrimp burrito + mango salad.
    Devon S.

    Hidden gem in Tulare. Love this location, staff is friendly, it's clean, and food is BOMB. Of course the mango chopped salad is a must but love the shrimp burrito too. Usually get food to go but came and dined in today and it was nice:)

    Burrito
    Helen L.

    Excellent service. Very patient cashier. Go to order and get a number and wait at a table for your food. There are too many choices to order. My mate had a burrito with no spicy salsa so the burrito was bland. Just had sour cream. I had chicken enchilada and grilled steak taco. Grilled steak was tender. It came with rice and beans. They had salsa bar, so you add how you like it. This is a hugh place and very comfortable seating. They come and wipe down the tables. Chips were crunchy and fresh.

    Chips and drinks!

    I've never had a bad meal here. Family owned. Good Southwestern Mex food. A much healthier choice than your basic authentic Mexican food.

    Their salads are so good. Try the mango or the Mexicaeser and you won't be disappointed. The service is always top notch too.

    So, I had high hopes for this place, but overall it was a bit of a letdown. I ordered 8 tacos (6…read moreasada, 1 chorizo, 1 chicharrón), 1 burrito, and 1 crunchy asada taco. The asada tacos actually had decent flavor -- although the meat was a little on the salty side. Not a deal breaker, but noticeable. The chorizo taco? Honestly, tasted just like the kind you buy at any grocery store and cook at home -- nothing special at all. I was hoping for that rich, house-made taste, but nope. The chicharrón taco was probably the most disappointing -- it was basically a cuerito taco. No real meat, just soft skin, so not what I was expecting. But what really killed the experience for me was the salsa situation. They gave me just two small containers of salsa for everything. The red one was tasty, and the green one was basic but good -- but come on, two little salsas for 8 tacos and a burrito? No limes, no radishes, nothing to help bring the tacos together. We ended up trying to ration the salsa, and without enough, the tacos felt dry. Everyone knows a taco needs to have that salsa dripping down and a good squeeze of lime to really come alive -- otherwise, it's just meat on a tortilla. I'm giving it 3 stars because the asada tacos had potential. But the overall execution, especially the lack of salsa and sides, really brought the meal down. Probably won't be rushing back.

    Theeeee place for tacos, period. Everything is so fresh and homemade. Don't walk, run to this…read moreamazing Taqueria. Never disappoints!
