It's a cute little Mexican restaurant on I-5, I stopped by on my way back to the Bay Area from Los Angeles. It's not fancy but it's cozy. We were hungry for lunch and the restaurant didn't disappoint. We had shrimp fajitas, chicken tacos and my kid had a kids cheese quesadilla. Everything was well seasoned and the server Zinia was very attentive and pleasant to talk to. She also gave me fresh salsa with my tacos. The prices are reasonable and the portion size is decent to fill you up. I will stop by if I am in the area :) read more

I was traveling from San Francisco back to Los Angeles. And I always stop here because I know the food and the menu are so good! The service is always great I've been coming here for 20 years now. Never disappoint. I highly recommend you come in. The shrimp Moho is also my favorite. But today I got the steak, shrimp and fries. read more

We got two burritos to go: carne asada$13 and breakfast $13 one with ham. The burritos are definitely on smaller side. The carne burrito tasted very acidic/sour with a lot of tomatoes in it. A bit too watery inside too. Very nice and patient server to take my order on the phone though. read more

Unfortunately, after giving this place another chance, I don't think we'll be coming back. The last time we ate here, I found a glass shard in my food. The staff was apologetic ended up comping our drinks, and because of how well they handled it, we were willing to come back. We also ordered chips and salsa that never came. Today, however, there was lipstick on the rim of my piña colada. I asked a waitress if I could have another one made because there was lipstick on the glass. She didn't apologize or seem particularly concerned, but said okay and took it back. The owner ended up bringing the replacement drink and did apologize, which I appreciated. We also ordered wings that never came. We asked a second time for the wings and by the third reminder we just canceled them. Since we were halfway through the rest of our meal, the appetizer was not necessary anymore. It seems the waitresses try to memorize the order instead of writing down the order which would be more thorough. I understand that mistakes happen, and I'm usually pretty understanding, but having a glass shard in my food on one visit and then receiving a glass with someone else's lipstick on it the next time raises some serious cleanliness and safety concerns for me. Considering everything that happened during this visit, I was also surprised that the drinks weren't comped. The staff wasn't rude, and I appreciate that the owner apologized, but unfortunately, after two experiences like this, we won't be returning. read more

Took a true leap of faith with this place. Don't judge a book by its cover! Food was amazing!

I was looking for some Mexican food that actually had some spice to it. This hit the spot. I asked for suggestions from the seating host and he directed me towards what I was craving with confidence which can sometimes backfire but did not this time. The quesadilla de Diablo was spicy and delicious. Shrimp cooked just right nit over done or rubbery. There was a nice smoky flavor as well. Bathrooms were decently clean nothing fancy. Last but definitely not least. Im always on the lookout for a decent salsa and this place did not disappoint. Don't skip it. Yes it has a kick. Sometimes the best gems are basically delicious. read more

Salsa was good, guacamole was decent. Dinner was okay. Queso was horrendous. Tasted like burnt melted shredded cheese. I'm actually almost positive that's what they did bc the sever didn't know what queso was. They wouldn't take it off my bill. The server was nice but the manager was not. Saying that I ate too much and that's why I didn't like it. The place also has little to no AC. It's hotter inside than outside. I do not recommend. read more

Im first going to start off by do not judge the outside of this restaurant. The food was sooooooooooo good I got the enchiladas Suaza. Food was 10/10. Our server was a young lady who was super nice ! (Didn't get her name). The inside is a little outdated but that's what makes the restaurant so cool !!! It's been there for 30 years! We will DEFINITELY be coming back. It's also a full bar ! Thank you Los pinos read more

This restaurant was a pleasant surprise! We stopped for gas on our i-5N journey and were looking for options that were not fast food. We got seated very quickly. The ambiance is actually quite cute - oldish, small town vibes with a Hispanic spin. They had Hispanic music to tie in the vibes. The server was very nice and responsive. Their menu is quite extensive with all day breakfast, apps, entrees and some interesting sides. We ordered the chicken quesadilla and the huevos con chorizo as well as a glass of Horchata. The food came quickly and it was freshly made. There was a lack of the heat element but we made do with the hot sauce. The plates were quite big and filling. The quesadilla was good outside of the needing more heat. The guac was VERY good! The huevos con chorizo was also very good except for lack of spice. The beans and rice were excellent and made for a good, filling plate. The Horchata was definitely one of the best I've had in a while. Pricing wise, it is slightly on the higher side for Mexican restaurants but I guess that is expected for a restaurant that is not fast food on the interstate. If you are looking for good food on your journey on I-5, I highly recommend stopping here. They are open from 12 am to 9 pm daily! read more

We stopped to charge at the nearby DCFC, on our way to San Dimas. It was excellent ! The servers were friendly and helpful. The food was amazing and flavorful. My teen ordered and got halfway through her meal before realizing she'd ordered something different from what she intended, and it was so good she was happy with the order. The portions were generous. I would likely have had leftovers except that the food was so tasty. I suggest getting the Jamaica drink. It was sweet and refreshing. Perfect on a hot day. read more

While on the road and I still have a long way to go to reach the destination, I want to find good food near the highway exit. Very often I find the food just average. Los Pinos not only beat my expectations but the food was also vey delicious. Enjoyed the Camarones A La Diabla and the Chile Relleno Combo plate.The Camarones A La Diabla was perfectly spicy. Service was fast and good. Decent ambiance read more

We stopped here for lunch on our way up to the Central Valley. The food is good authentic Mexican cuisine. However, the restaurant itself is a bit run down, tired, old and dirty. The service was attentive. We did not have to wait long to be seated and the server took our order promptly and checked in on us after we received our food. read more

Really good food! This place is nothing to look at from the outside however the food and hospitality is five star. We happened upon the place because we were traveling over the grapevine and needed a place to eat one evening when all else was closed. We have made it a point to go back there a few more times and it has never disappointed us. Small inside and always busy. Dont pass this place up. read more

Excellent! Spicy, delicious and friendly service. I would recommend. I don't typically like spicy but their salsa was so delicious I couldn't stop eating it! The sauce that came with our steak El Carbon tacos was too much for me but my husband loved it! They have a great selection of food, drinks and beer! read more

This place has a cute little ambience with several tables. Cute cozy indoor seating. Lots of space, so if you're stopping on your way down to LA or up to San Jose this is a GREAT taco spot -- I 100% recommend it! The tacos enchiladas are very authentic very fresh. All of the guac and fixings were absolutely amazing. save your trip to chipotle and come here for some authentic Mexican food. The waitress was helpful and sweet and gave us some recommendations and checked off us often. read more

Los Pinos Mexican Restaurant - Enchiladas suiza (chicken with green sauce). Chips and salsa. Yum! - Mexican Near Me - Lebec, California

We called in an order while cruising up to NorCal on the 5. What a delight! Friendly all around! From order taker on the phone to the pickup experience (where the owner/manager (?) grabbed my straw wrapper that I had wadded up and tossed it out for me), everyone was super pleasant and efficient. It's a fairly small restaurant with several booths and a few tables. Our to go order was ready in 10-15 minutes from when we called it in on a Friday evening. We noticed several others also coming out with to-go. The food was great! I LOVED the combo, taco & enchilada, I ordered. The enchilada was smothered in green sauce and everything was flavorful with crisp lettuce on my shredded beef taco. My hubs got the Burrito Mexicano and when I read it off the menu, neglected to see the "spicy" mention in the salsa. It was a bit too hot for him, so he didn't love it but that was on us, not them! Great option to support a local business and eat something more tasty than fast food fare. read more

Food was pretty darn good! Nice surprise, as the area is very unkempt - right off the I 5 so no big surprise. They do a lot of take out based on the hotel/travel/tucker business so that made the service somewhat iffy, but the food is what's important to me and we thoroughly enjoyed - good chips n salsa (but they charge, fyi) burrito steak picado , chile relleno also good altho not the cooking style I prefer (it was more omelette style) but the chili itself was fresh and the sauce Very Good! One quick tried bar: skip the salad. I thought being in the arg center of the US it would be decent - nope! Grated ice berg and basically nuthin else read more

Nice place to eat while traveling a frequent route for us and charging our car (near the nearby Jack-in-the-Box). Decor is outdated and food is basic, but with a good variety and ample portions. The enchiladas de camaron (pictured) - actually one large enchilada - was generously stuffed with shrimp and artificial crab in a mild red sauce. Staff is friendly and attentive. And my husband is happy that they carry Modelo Negra beer. They charged $2.95 for chips and salsa on this visit, which hadn't happened previously. Not a negative to me - seems like a way to keep prices stable in a time of high inflation, and not everyone wants them. But FYI. read more

Los Pinos Mexican Restaurant - Enchiladas de camaron - Mexican Near Me - Lebec, California

This food was not tasty. We got the wrong order but it was late and we just ate around the meat stuff. Even the food we could eat was not good at all. Tortillas were gummy. Salsa tasted off. Beans were over salty. Rice was both dry and oily. A vegetarian burrito had huge chunks of broccoli and cauliflower and no beans. The chips were good. The ambiance was old fashioned, and I typically love the old school Mexican restaurants with carpet and booths. This was very disappointing. I don't plan to return. read more

On the way to Southern CA, we saw this place while looking for a gas station. Stopped in, and we should've walked out the moment we were ignored by the host/waiter at the front. We weren't welcomed by a greeting, asked to wait to be helped or thanked for our patience after the wait. We sat for about 10 minutes, before an older man (appeared to be the owner), came by to ask if I was waiting for someone. My husband had walked away to use the facilities. I immediately informed him that I was waiting and ready to order. He walked away and came back to take my order. I placed the order, when the chips and salsa came, they neglected to bring any napkins. We placed the order for an appetizer platter since we weren't very hungry. The appetizer platter finally came and I wasn't impressed. The chicken taquitos (just like the chips) tasted more like burnt oil than anything. I would NOT recommend this place. I was very disappointed because we were looking forward to finding a new spot for our trips to Southern CA. read more

Food was sloppy and they were out of beans LOL!!! ambiance was a mess. Service was so rude - the owner literally flicked the plastic barrier between us to rush me into signing my receipt.

Nice stop on the road in Frazier Park. Quaint place with simple sweet decor. Menu dedicated to a missed family member . Welcoming service and conversation from who I believe was the owner. Guacamole was fresh with nice big pieces of avocado. Chips crisp and tasty, salsa bright and flavorful. The portion of the trio fajitas was outstanding. Grilled to perfection on the veggies, chicken, steak and shrimp. Hubby loved it all, and he is usually anti shrimp at Mexican restaurants. Accompanying tortillas were very good. You know it's looking great when the tortillas are buttered . Chili verde and chili Colorado duo enchilada's were very nice. Silky sauces with lots of flavors but not spicy. Well made Rice and beans rounded out the lunch plate. Prices are amazing on everything. We look forward to our next visit. It has been added to the rotation read more

On our way to Burning Man, and made a pit stop for lunch and gas. I love me a cute whole in the wall resturant and this place has that home-ie feel. The family that runs the place is so kind and makes you feel like they have been waiting for you this whole time just to feed you. You absolutely have to order the chips, salsa, and guacamole. Order two salsas! Trust me you will be drinking the salsa, it's that delicious! My number one rule when knowing if mexican food is good is tasting the rice and beans first. 1000 percent authentic and on point. Everything was soooo bomb! I cant wait for another road trip read more
