We've eaten here several times and keep returning for Garcia's Parillado which is one of our favorite Mexican dishes. The combination of steak, chicken, vegetables, and shrimp is delicious and we generally split it between us with an extra order of rice so that we both have rice. Dining on the patio in nice weather is recommended. We always have good service and enjoy the fresh air. Just please leave a table for us! read more

Great food. Great service. We eat here all the time. Everything we've tried is terrific. It's our go-to restaurant in Frankfort.

The food was decent. Customer service was as expected. The food was delivered quickly and their salsa was great.

Best Mexican restaurant in Frankfort. We eat here regularly for dinner, or girl's night. Great beer and margarita selection, as well as menu variety. My husband's favorite is the barbacoa tacos. I often order chicken soft tacos, nachos, chimichanga, quesadilla, taco salad... you can't really go wrong. Nice bar area, but we usually sit in a booth which provides a bit of privacy. Service is excellent. Only one stall in the women's restroom, but always clean. read more

We have tried several different menu selections and they are all very good! Great service too! We highly recommend Garcia's to anyone who enjoys authentic Mexican food! read more

The food is inedible. When we complained about our dinner, that contained rancid meat and rock hard rice the owner started cussing in Spanish and using threatening foul language in front of my small children. I have no idea how this place is in business. My husband found a worm in his beef - absolutely disgusting!! The health department should shut this place down and all the owners other restaurants. read more

Food was good. Scenery was good. Service was poor. Need to work on the service. Sat with empty drinks and empty chips for a long time. Even after our waitress left to go get us more. Finally had to get another waitress to get our waitress. read more

Garcia's Mexican Restaurant - Las Mulitas - Mexican Near Me - Frankfort, Kentucky

We stumbled upon this place while visiting other shopping establishments. The amazing smells coming from within lured us in. It was a Friday night around 7:00ish. We were immediately greeted and sat. The salsa is brought out to you already poured in a bowl. I'm not fond of this, but I've noticed many restaurants are now doing it this way. The salsa was sooo good! Could tell is made fresh with fresh ingredients, even my 11 year old commented how fresh it tastes. Chunks of onion and tomato- not runny or bland- perfect spices. Our food came out at a descent speed and was hot. So yummy and nice portion size ( see pics). Prices are average. Service was nice. Would absolutely come back and plan too! read more

Outstanding service. The waiter was on top of his game! Drinks kids had pink lemonade which was refreshing. Wife got the "organic" margarita. And let me tell you, it was delicious/refreshing.....The food felt like home made, pork enchiladas were exquisite, the beef nachos and steak fries you can tell that took their time to fix and garnish them not only appreciating but delicate prepared. And the tacos de birria, well my faves to eat.......the place for sure it's. Pleasant, good music read more

We were invited to meet some friends at Garcia's for dinner. Of course you can't go wrong with good company for dinner. When we arrived we entered the restaurant knowing that some of our party were already there as my husband recognized the vehicle we parked next to. We were greeted at the entrance by two male employees and told them we were there to meet some friends. The dynamic duo tried to set up a location for us to eat. They didn't comprehend that we knew some of our party were already inside. Fortunately in their search for a table they came across a female employee that knew exactly where our party was seated. Whew! After being seated the server took our drink orders. Nothing too difficult, an unsweetened ice tea and a water. After the final two members of our party arrived and were served their drinks the server returned to take our food order. My husband ordered the Chile relleno dinner and I ordered the Taco salad with ground beef. Other members of our party had been to Garcia's before and Fish tacos seemed to be the dinner of choice. When served all the hot dinners came out first and I was told my salad was being made. No problem. Unfortunately I was less than impressed with my salad. There was NO meat of any kind. The lettuce chunks were way too big to stuff in my mouth. There were a number of strips of carrots that were three or four inches long and too chunky to cut in half. There was one small scoop of sour cream and guacamole on the top but otherwise the salad was quite dry and flavorless. I poured some left over salsa from the chips on too to make it edible. I think I ordered the wrong thing. The other dinners looked like they were all enjoyed but I did notice the gentleman across from me putting fork full scoops of salsa on his fish tacos. The waitress towards the end grumbled about her long working hours for the day so she wanted payments to be as easy as possible. Since I was seated at that end of the table I'm not sure if I was the only one that heard her grumbles. We were an easy group of diners that had not made many demands on her time. The best part of dinner, good company. Second best, good fresh salsa. After that I'm being generous with my rating based on others enjoying their dinners. read more

There were 6 of us for the outside patio... the server was training, and it was a rough start with issues. Charles came to our rescue! We appreciate that he was very knowledgeable and courteous. Management - Give Charles a raise and please ...train the bar staff on how to make a true "Old Fashion" using quality ingredients (Luxardo Cherries). Thank you read more

Typical Mexican menu with lots of choices. The chips and salsa was delicious. Salsa had a great flavor, pretty mild but yummy. Had a late lunch and the service was quick and great. Waters were always being refilled, food came out quick! I got the chorizo & chicken lunch special and my friend got the shrimp tacos. Both were served with rice and beans, the rice has corn mixed in. Chorizo, chicken and cheese was yummy! Can't go wrong with that combo! read more

The people who waited on me were very nice. However, a few employees were loudly arguing in the background one woman in particular was yelling so loudly it was very awkward. It sounded like an argument over margaritas. Finally my food came everything was ok until I saw something weird on my plate. Upon further inspection I discovered it was a metal shaving. Yum. read more

The food is good. The servers are fantastic. We've gone here a couple times for lunch, and have not been disappointed.

Everything from this place was awful. The chips were way too thick, the salsa was bland and flavorless. They also use mozzarella for the cheese on everything(very wrong). The rice tasted like it was minute rice(texture was the give away). They refried beans had zero flavor. Would not recommend. read more

Garcia's is a nice change of pace from the same old Mexican restaurant you can find in any city in the area. The food seems extremely fresh and made from scratch. The molcajete was delicious and the daily special tropical margarita was good and strong. Everyone agreed that Gracias was a great choice for dinner. read more

Overpriced and mediocre. Ordered chicken fajitas and what arrived was a half serving compared to what other restaurants in the area serve and it did not even have peppers lol. I know it sounds like a joke, but I swear it isn't. It was just a small sliced up chicken breast on some fajita onions. No peppers no other veggies. Might be bad luck, I definitely am not impressed overall. Overpriced and not worth it compared to many other places in the area. read more

I left Kentucky almost ten years ago. Today I was in town and could not pass up the chance to stop into Garcia's for lunch. They still have the best steak fajitas I have ever had. read more

This review is based only on the food, as I have not been inside. Overall, the taste was great! The guy who took our order was friendly and precise. I had the chicken flautas, my husband had beef nachos, and my aunt ordered a seafood chimichanga (I can't remember name.) Everyone loved the food, and the prices were pretty standard... our only complaint would be that they were kinda skimpy on meat. It's a pet peeve, especially for nachos. Regardless, when I visit Kentucky next time, I will likely return! read more

This is the BEST Mexican restaurant in Frankfort. Seriously, I have been to almost all of them. (There might be one on the west side I haven't been to, maybe). While I truly believe that Frankfort needs a more authentic Latin-American restaurant scene, this is the closest there is. Yes, there are the standard lunch specials, tamales, tacos, fajitas, but they also have chilaquiles. While they are not exactly how I remember them growing up, at least they are on the menu. This is my go-to place when I want Mexican-style food in frankfort. read more

Good food. Service was excellent! My coworkers and I visited Garcia's for lunch. We all arrived in increments and required separate checks. We placed our orders and received numerous drink refills. Before our orders arrived, the server presented us with our separate checks. The chips and salsa were good. Food was good, but not great. What made this experience great was the service. read more

Stopped by this restaurant while traveling through Kentucky. Decent Mexican food. Did not have the normal combos were used to but instead had more entree style dishes like seafood, steak, etc. I had the taco salad without the shell and husband had the Burrito Garcia. He loved the burrito. It was loaded with shrimp, chicken and chorizo. It came with black beans that were really good which was a nice variation from retried beans. It was about 2 miles off I-64 in Frankfort. read more

Dropped in because our first choice was closed. This is our new first choice. Great food with a wide variety and fast, friendly service.

I was just not impressed with the food here. The salsa tasted like spaghetti sauce. It was entirely too sweet for my taste. The nachos were ok. The chips were stale but other than that, edible. read more

It really is as good as it gets! The food is fresh, good, and definitely a step up from other Mexican restaurants in the area. I personally love the Delicia de pollo and Taco Loco with chicken.

This is not a very good Mexican restaurant. Chips were stale, guacamole was not flavorful at all. The shrimp fajitas had thinly sliced onions that were burnt. Chicken nuggets had an after taste must have been bad enough that my 8 year old did not finish. Don't waste your time and money. read more

First let me say that Mexican is my favorite food and I've been nothing but impressed by all of the Mexican restaurants that I've tried in Frankfort. I was impressed by Garcia's as soon as I walked through the door. We were promptly greeting by two friendly gentleman and seated right away. The menu was black and classy, and seemed consist more of tex mex options than some of the authentic options that we have at Mexican restaurants in Lexington. But hey, that's probably what the majority of the people in Frankfort, KY prefer. The chips and salsa were good, and not as oily as a lot of other Mexican restaurants. My husband asked for hot salsa and rarely is he impressed by the kick, but he said the hot salsa here was hot enough for him. Since it's still January and I'm doing well by sticking to my New Year's resolution, I looked for the healthiest thing on the menu. I ordered the vegetable fajitas and was looking forward to the rare red peppers that the menu mentioned came in the vegetable fajitas, but they were missing. Keeping in mind that it is winter and vegetables are out of season. I was impressed at the freshness of the vegetables though. Usually you see a bit of browning or wilting in at least one of the vegetables within vegetable fajitas, but not here. All of the vegetables, including squash, zucchini, broccoli, carrots, green peppers and onions tasted and looked fresh. We were one of only three tables that were occupied but the service was a bit slow. We waited several minutes for a refill and had to ask for the check. Not a huge deal, it's just not something we would experience in a five star restaurant. read more

Garcia's had spot on authentic Mexican dishes. I would highly recommend the Quesadillas Jalisco. It was a quesadilla with chorizo, over sizzling peppers and onions, with grilled chicken and salsa verde on top. Service was very friendly and made you feel welcome. They also have a drink menu with several flavors of margaritas. read more

Every town has a "go-to" Mexican restaurant that has a friendly staff, filling food, and cozy ambiance that keeps people coming back. I was lucky enough to visit Garcia's with someone who is a regular and could point me to some favorites on the menu (Fish Tacos for her). I ended up ordering the Quesadilla Garcia, and enjoyed some salsa while I waited. Garcia's salsa tastes like it is made fresh in-house, with crunchy bits of onion and ripe tomatoes and just enough cilantro to taste perfectly fresh. We inhaled several baskets of chips and bowls of salsa before the meal, and despite the button on my jeans straining to hold in my stomach, I was able to eat the better part of the quesadilla, topped with fresh guacamole, before calling it a meal with about 2 bites left. Tasty meal, good company, and a reasonable price made my meal at Garcia's an experience I would be happy to repeat. read more

We just moved to town and wanted to try out the local food choices, and this is the closest to our new house. The food was okay and our server was super nice. Everything was overpriced and under seasoned. I can see how others like it, but it's not for us. There are several other options for Mexican food in the area that are much better in my opinion. read more
