Great food, good service, friendly atmosphere. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle further down Main Street.

The food was absolutely delicious and the service was incredible. The atmosphere is amazing. Would definitely come here again.

Solid food! Delicious Al pastor tacos, good horchata. We were very happy :) will return when in the area

Nice restaurant, good tasting food, nice variety menu. Salsa tasted fresh and was served cold. It's chunky, just a hint of heat, nice tasting cilantro and garlic in the salsa. The steak taco was good tasting. The steak was cut up in larger pieces and did not have gristle or fat. The meat was dry and a little spicy with the Asada seasoning they put on it but overall it was good with salsa on top. They put a lot of sauce on top so if you don't like it really wet, I suggest you order the sauce on the side like I did. The chile relleno was delicious! The pepper was very large and tender but not mushy. It was loaded with cheese! When I cut into it the cheese just flowed out melted mozzarella cheese! The sauce on top is a red sauce didn't have a lot of flavor but it tasted OK. The red sauce is mild. I poured their salsa on top which was delicious. sitting outside was very nice and clean. The service was very friendly and fast. But they only had two customers. :-) read more

Love their salmon tacos and chips/salsa. Several of our friends enjoy eating there too. Service is usually prompt and on point.

The staff was nice, the atmosphere was cute outside. The inside was ok. The food could of been better

Yum. That's all I have to say. Just yum! We stopped by after a day of wine tasting and needed something delicious. The service was fantastic right from the start. The food wasn't greasy but light and flavorful. Everything we ordered tasted phenomenal. We sat outside and got a chance to people watch and enjoy the sunshine. Definitely plan to stop by again when we're in town. read more

Outstanding food and fun drinks. With Mexican and Italian and very authentic sauces. read more

Gabby's Cuisine - Restaurant and bar. - Mexican Near Me - Murphys, California

Traveling and looking for food that is gluten and soy free can get difficult. I stop in Murphys for the night and found this gem! I called and talked to a wait person who took the time to let me know what was available. I saw a sign about fish tacos,but they were breaded. So she recommended veggie tacos with a half Ceaser salad (no croutons) All I can say is Delicious! Very tasty and I look forward to my next meal read more

We had an absolutely outstanding dinner at Gabbys Cuisine! Everything was so fresh and service was above and beyond! The patio was pretty! Can't wait to get back! read more

Visited Gabby's on a weeknight & here's the lowdown... SERVICE - Gabby & her staff were friendly. My only complaint, as far as their service, was that they had 1 server for the night. Now, I know we're still in COVID times so maybe they didn't expect to be so busy but the night we were there, they were. So, the wait to order took quite sometime & so did getting our check. Our waitress was polite & we felt a bit bad for her but there was no getting out of there quickly that night. FOOD - Food tasted great! However, my biggest complaint was how they charged us for every basket of chips & cups of salsa but the server failed to mention this!!! It was *NOT* a pleasant surprise when the bill came. We felt ripped off. Was it expensive? No. Could we afford it? Yes...but we would've appreciated being told upfront that they charge for these items because 99% of other Mexican restaurants DO NOT! read more

Excellent service, attentive and courteous. Delicious food would call it clean Mex (non greasy) even though they also serve Italian so it's MexItalian restaurant. From the first serving of chips and salsa (homemade), waters and teas really good to the finish I got carnitas tacos my friend got a burrito and we both thought it was really good. We will be back! read more

My husband and I were looking for a place to eat on a Saturday in Downtown Murphys. Had the best chicken marsala in this place. My husband had the pineapple special (off menu) because we saw a couple of ladies eating it next to our table. This place is amazing and service was phenominal. read more

I was really impressed with the food and service here ! This place is across the street from all the tasting rooms and has a beautiful patio. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here after a day of wine tasting. Food arrived quickly and the staff were very nice and friendly and checked in on us a few times. The street is really nice for a stroll post meal. Worth a visit !! read more

Stumbled upon this place in Murphys on my way back from Arnold . This place is situated in a cute little town I had just discovered with Wineries for wine tasting on the same block. The restaurant offers indoor dining and there is an outdoor patio for outdoor dining with shade. The staff were friendly and provided helpful suggestions while we were deciding on how much food to order. Given it was a hot day and we weren't so hungry, but wanted to try their food, we went with sharing the molcajete and had some michaladas which were all very satisfying and perfect amount of food. The portion was perfect for two people. Would definitely come back next time I am in murphys read more

This is a Mexican restaurant, but the pastas are pretty amazing so I'd call it Italian Ore than Mexican. We thought the Tortilla Salad was so so. Cute space and we will try again soon. I promise the pastas won't disappoint ya. read more

My entire family went to Gabby's and let me say everyone in our group of 8 loved it! My husband is Mexican and I'm Italian. When we saw Gabby's we had to try it. The chips were made there as is their guacamole. Everyone wanted a taste of my husband's soaps! DELICIOUS!!! The waitress was prompt, professional and courteous! Thank you Gabby's...our families will be back! read more

This restaurant offers a full menu of Mexican dishes as well as a separate menu of Italian dishes. I wasn't sure how authentic the Mexican dishes were, having seen pasta on the menu, but while we looked over the menu they brought out another tables food and I saw and smelled it and instantly wanted to try it. They have really good Micheladas here, which is a tomato based beer cocktail with tajin, cucumbers, and shrimp on the rim (if you aren't acquainted, think a Mexican version of Bloody Mary, and see my photos). I had mine with Modelo. For food we ordered the Molcajete. I had never tried this dish before, but everything in it appealed to me. It's basically a large bowl of spicy Rojo (red tomato based) sauce with beans, topped with grilled carne asada and chicken, cactus paddles, and grilled green onions and jalapeños, arranged to hang over the bowl into the sauce, and topped with cheese. It is served with tortillas. Highly recommend. The food was great, and our waitress took great care of us! I hope to visit again read more

We were in Murphy's for the Irish Days Celebration weekend. Be warned that this event completely overwhelms this beautiful mountain town and most businesses in it. I guess we were a little taken back since this is a reoccurring event that you can prepare for. We had a reservation for 6:30 PM. The restaurant was very busy and looked like a tornado had rolled through it. When we checked in the waitress said they had been overwhelmed through the day and even with our reservation we would have a 30-40 minute wait to be served. She added that they had went through their prepped foods and were cooking to order which would also add to the delay. It was very obvious that the restaurant had been overwhelmed by just looking at the place. Unfortunately we had made a reservation here and it would most likely be near impossible to walk in anywhere else due to the event weekend. So we stuck it out. The two younger female servers were very polite and did their best under the circumstances despite being very tired. Everything came as a hodgepodge for our party of six. We started receiving Waters and drinks at the table around 7:15 - 7:20 PM. Very few chips and very little salsa. They definitely were stretching their chips and salsa, which were both very cold. Our meals arrived part and parcel around 8:05 - 8:10 PM. I had the soup of the day and a Cesar Salad with grilled shrimp. My soup was served nice and hot and was very tasty. I wish I was given a soup spoon rather than a teaspoon to eat it with. My salad was served chilled and my grilled shrimp were nice and hot. It was a good portion and the Caesar dressing had excellent flavor. Unfortunately nobody else in my dinner party enjoyed their meals, describing the Mexican food as average at best. One person in my party had spaghetti and meatballs which he felt was okay. He shared a meatball with another person at the table who could not eat it because of the taste. Overall our experience, service, and food was not good. We were very surprised that the food was average at best. Except for my soup and salad of course. My wife and I still tipped our waitresses 20% because we felt sorry for them and they maintained smiles despite customers pulling them in every direction. I do think things would be better if you tried Gabby's on a non-event weekend. read more

Stayed in a little cottage on Jones st and this restaurant was steps away. Saw the decent Yelp reviews and decided to give it a try. It's advertised as a Mexican restaurant but they have an eclectic menu. Being Mexican and having access to authentic Mexican food I was not looking to eat Mexican food on this trip. However, saw and read about the alternative options. I ended up having the lobster ravioli, which exceeded my expectations. I was skeptical give again, that I am in a "Mexican" restaurant. It was good, great sauce and the bread and butter were good too. The only negative was the jalapeño margarita that was advertised as a special item. Worst margarita I've ever had. The wait staff are attentive. read more

Great food. I had the penne with sausage. Long wait on what didn't look like a busy nite. Seemed to be short handed.

Well, long wait for service. Ordered Veggie Fajitas. They charge me the same price for chicken, okay. But then, another dollar for vegetables? Service was very slow. Salsa was good. They also had some extra charges for credit card, i get that. I'd skip it. read more

Wow! Gabby's molcajete was the best dish I've had in a very long time. Absolutely top notch. I'm a pretty good home cook, and I know when I come across something that's beyond my skill level. Everybody's food was amazing. The town is lucky to have a chef like Gabby. read more

Absolutely horrible. Very disappointed. Was told the fish tacos were Atlantic cod and then I saw the cook grab a box of fish sticks from the freezer lol. Took over40 minutes to get our food too. Lesson learned read more

The food was extremely good. One Star because they ripped me off I ordered 1 wet burrito @ $13.99 and 1 regular burrito @ $11.99 = $26 was charged $35!!! Too bad because I did enjoy the food but am still wondering where the other $9 came from. read more

Yummy food, very slow service. Maybe it was the evening we were there (it wasn't super crowded though), or our server, but we had terribly slow service. 30 minutes for the drinks to show up, missed orders, mixed up orders. We were a party of 7 but we didn't order any substitutes or anything out of the ordinary, so I'm disappointed with the service. However, the food was fantastic. Molcajete, Taco salad, Steak fajitas, caprese salad, the veggie torta and the flan - all super yummy! Good size servings too, we got plenty to go! read more

Unbelievable food. We tried the seafood molcajeteand the fresh salmon with lemon sauce and sauteed veggies. Go outside of your regular food and you taste buds will be delighted. Superb food and great service. Gabby really knows what she is doing. This place is a gem. The flan is out of this world. I will recommend this place to anyone and will plan to come back. read more

We got a take out order on a Saturday night, the food was excellent and the staff was incredibly friendly. Glad to have found this gem in Murphy's read more

These guys have options! Mex or Italian. Cool indoor dining or sit out on Main Street while you enjoy yourselves.

Not a fan. Went there the first time and there was a dead fly in my napkin. Strike one, two and 3 all in one visit.

Always great food and perfect service. I've never been to a restaurant that serves two totally different genres of food and nails both of them every time. It's always try. 5 stars all the way. read more

By far the best Mexican food I have ever had! The fish tacos were AMAZING. The rice was perfect and fluffy and the beans were so good and creamy. We enjoyed a nice michelada as well. Worth coming here for the food after hiking the Arnold Rim Trail! read more

This is meant as constructive feedback. Nice people and rooting for them. And you can definitely satisfy your hunger here at a good value. But. So much be desired. The Mex Italian thing throws you off from the start. The chef and staff are clearly held back by an unfocused menu. We ordered fajitas hoping to get the sizzle effect. Instead, first came rice and topings well before the fajitas. The lettuce was a tad wilted. If you focus your menu you can specialize and have stricter freshness standards for fewer ingredients. But we're hungry and we had to look at our toppings for at least 5 minutes before the fajitas. Then, phew the fajitas came. Hot but no sizzle, steam coming off. This is the major miss. We had to watch our fajitas sit for another 5 minutes before getting the tortillas, no exaggeration. Felt like 20 in that situation. Frustrating. I watched the steam slow off our fajitas to barely anything. Then our nice warm tortillas finally came. Would have been cool to have an option to buy more too. We weren't in any one waiters care. Different people cycling through. Ceasar salad doesn't have a creamy dressing so that catches you off guard. Waiter should warn you. Didn't taste like a Ceasar. Took forever to pay. Drink refills were not our original diet coke. It's just a chaotic concept. You need to pick Mex or Italian. You serve mash potatoes with Ravioli? That's not Italian. Have to be careful with names. If you're doing a fusion or mix, let customers know. Can't use established labels and then bait switch when your concept is different. Staff were very friendly but just overwhelmed even though the restaurant wasn't packed. It's still worth going here for the value, friendly staff, and awesome patio setting. But just be ready for an adventure. read more

Great food. Great atmosphere. Great people. Affordable..... Murphys is lucky to have this little spot that is not priced towards tourists.

Great food and liked the outdoor seating. I brought my dog too. I went on day of the dead celebration which was on a Saturday. Great to see everyone dressed up and painted faces. But this restaurant does have great food. They serve Mexican and Italian food. I had the chicken tacos and they were delicious. read more

The waitress at one of our tastings recommended this place for a quick lunch and I'm so glad that we checked it out! We were going to eat Italian for dinner so went with the Mexican options for our lunch. I split a veggie burrito with my sister and it ended up being the perfect amount of food. Our waitress was lovely, though a bit frazzled due to being the only waitstaff and serving multiple large parties at once. Everything I tried from other's plates was also delicious and when I return to Murphys in the future, I'll definitely make sure to stop in again to try more of their offerings. read more
