    I'll start this review with the caveat that I've only been here during lunch. However, both times I've been here so far, I've been impressed and very happy with the entire experience while at this restaurant. More of a sit down restaurant, you'll be seated and the staff will take your order. There isn't a chip and salsas bar, but that's fine because of the way the restaurant is. The staff is incredibly friendly and great throughout the meal. Instead of chips and salsa, you'll get ceviche, tostada, and crackers. The ceviche is good and a wonderful way to start the meal. It's included, so it's great. If you run out, the staff hasn't had a problem with replenishing the table. Having come at lunch, I take advantage of the lunch special. For nearly half the price as other restaueanrs and taquerías, (depending on the competitor), you can get a whole mojarra plate! There are other intriguing options included in the lunch special choices, and all of them are great deals. For the price, I can't complain about the options on the lunch special menu. The dish fills you up, and combined with the free device, you'll come out of here absolutely stuffed. It's an incredible value. The platter was good. I've had worse. The combination of everything made it a great experience, and I'll be back again for the lunch special. I also got a jamaica, and it was refreshing after being outside in the heat.

    Had the best asada taco today. Make sure you add the guacamole salsa, which adds such a brightness. The staff are so friendly and happy to explain any item.

    I have eaten in lots of Mexican restaurants. But not many like Las Islitas, which is mainly focused on seafood. Yes! They have very delicious seafood and amicable customer service. The drinks at Las Islitas are excellent, with reasonable prices. Perfect match with the yummy seafood dishes here. The dining room in Las Islitas is vast and suitable for the live band show interaction with the customers. I come to Galt many times, and Las Islitas is one of the restaurants I like the most.

    The food is always consistent and on point! As much as I love chips and salsa, they're ceviche with crackers and chips is outstanding! It's a great place to watch football or any sports that are on. There are plenty of tvs to see from any seat in the house. And they've always had nothing but great service! Even when I get a doordash,it's consistent!

    Shrimp taco and mariachi taco

    Yummy!! I love Mexican seafood. Sometimes it's hard to find so here's a place that really specializes in seafood. There's so much to choose from; they have shrimp, fish, oysters, mussels, crab legs, squid, abalone, and even chicken and beef for those who aren't into seafood. It's ALL good here. Most Mexican restaurants will give you chips and salsa before your meal but Las Islitas stepped it up and gives fish ceviche to each table free of charge. That's great customer service if you ask me. On todays visit, I had a shrimp taco and a mariachi taco (bacon wrapped shrimp taco). You heard that correctly-bacon wrapped shrimp taco. Wow what a great idea, it was delicious. The only thing I'll do different next time is, I'll get my tacos without the sauce. They put a thousand island type sauce on both types of shrimp tacos, I'm not into the sweetness. But the JALEPENO salsa they brought out to me was delicious. My waitress was friendly and attentive, everything was great. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town.

    Complimentary ceviche appetizer as soon as you're seated

    We really enjoy coming here when we are in Galt. The food is always delicious and the staff is so nice and welcoming. Their happy hour prices are good and lots of tvs to watch if you like sports. Show some love and support this business, they're awesome!

    Best Mariscos Joint in Galt no other spot like las islitas. Must go check them out they have a full bar tons of Flatscreens to watch your favorite sport team playing while sipping a brewski

    My taco plate (Tacos (Steak)) everything was so good 10/10

    The food was very good I got two asada tacos with beans and rice, the tacos were very good and the meals came with complementary ceviche. However the service was very slow, each dish was taken out one by one, my friend waited 20 mins after my dish came out for chicken wings. The environment however was very nice, the walls were covered in murals and on the Friday that I went there there was mariachi. I would definitely go there again but when I have more time!

    Wonderful food. Service was solid. The flavor of the seafood in the molcajete was outstanding. My fish taco was superb... the crunch... the flavor.. on point. The seafood cocktail had lovely chunks of avocado. I'm drooling again thinking about it all. We were not asked much if we needed more of anything .... But were asked just enough.

    Great to be back in California. 2 big fish tacos, a street chicken taco and ceviche appetizer. All were great. Alicia was a great server and helped me through the extensive seafood menu. #spicemeister approved.

    I had a little trouble finding this place... but I'm glad I did! I had ceviche and the diablo shrimp plate both delicious. My waitress Arcelia was great. Nice vibe. Looks like a cool place to catch a game or grab a bite with the family. Maybe next time I'll bring them.

I recommended this place to everyone because the food and service were genuinely amazing. The staff used to be friendly, welcoming, and consistent, which was a huge reason we kept coming back. Unfortunately, over time, we've had several disappointing visits. The food portions have noticeably decreased, and the meals no longer seem to have the same amount of sauce, flavor, or care put into them like they did in the beginning. On top of that, the atmosphere feels completely different now. Lately, it seems like employees are talking amongst themselves while staring at customers, and we've received dirty looks on multiple occasions. It creates an uncomfortable and unwelcoming environment, which is disappointing considering how positive the experience used to be. A few times after eating here, I felt nauseous, but I brushed it off and assumed it was just the combination of the hot sauce and sour cream. However, I order the exact same items from the Lodi truck and never experience that issue there. Our most recent visit finally pushed me to leave a review. We ordered our usual the Tequileros Super Burrito and the tortilla seemed undercooked, like it barely touched the grill. The burrito itself was cold from the sauce and cheese, the cheese wasn't melted at all, and the rice had little to no flavor. It made me sick and I could not take another bite. Waste of money. ): I normally don't like posting negative reviews, especially for a restaurant I used to genuinely support, but this experience was too disappointing not to mention. I'll continue supporting the Lodi location because the quality there has stayed consistent, but Galt is much closer and I truly wish this location would return to the quality and customer service it had when it first opened. I believe in this business, but the food and customer experience need to reflect the value and reputation it started with. Hope this helps!

These tamales are so good that I don't mind having them two days in a row. I've had the beef and garlic, the chicken, and today I had the pleasure of sampling the cream cheese and jalapeños. I think these folks have it down as far as choosing appropriate events (tamales and beer? Yes! Tamales and wine? You bet!) and at keeping their food fresh during transport. Mmmmm. I am a huge fan. The owner is a really nice guy and so are the folks that work these events. Looking forward to running into Toro while out and about! I get attached to things, and become stubborn like bull. It's perfect, really. Also a Taurus. That might be part of it....
