Lupe's Diner is a small family owned restaurant where you can dine in or take out. This restaurant is in the heart of downtown Windsor. There is the town green next to it so it's great for walking around before or afterwards and checking out the shops. I got the fish tacos and they were amazing. The food is fresh and flavorful and we both loved our meals. The service is amazing and the atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. I have heard that there margaritas are amazing, although I haven't tried them for myself yet. read more

Amazing food! Everything I've had (too many items to name) are delicious! I can't pick a favorite. Even simple items such as a quesadilla are to die for. Why? Because there is so much flavor! Not just from simple salt, but from the spices they use on their meats, beans, etc. the salsas are scrumptious but not spicy at all for me. I usually only am a fan of my mom's salsa but the ones here are pretty gosh darn close to being as good. Perfect location right at the heart of beautiful Windsor. Lovely owners and friendly staff read more

Great food, and great service! :) It's a small family owned Mexican diner with an attached bar area. The space is small, but we came in ~16 deep and they took care of us like family! We ordered a chimichanga and a molcajete. I've had many a molcajete, ranging from good to mediocre, but this one was one of the better ones I've had the pleasure of partaking in! Certainly worth the order! 10/10 - We'll be back, and you should as well! :) read more

Lupe's is my baby's favorite their service and food are great my Tanya's always so nice to us and their queso birra is the best around

I've been coming here for many years and the food never disappoints. Best enchiladas I've ever had and the owner is incredibly sweet and welcoming. Always come here with my family, it's definitely one of my favorite places in town. Really warm and cozy atmosphere. 10/10. read more

We had the Carne asada and the chicken taquitas. Both were very good. They both should be served sour cream and guacamole. Service was great. Ambiance was okay. read more

Scam alert!! Had dinner here with my family and was complaining to my husband about how expensive it was so when I got home I reviewed the menu and added up what our bill should have been and they charge us $17 more than what the menu prices were listed as!! The server didn't present us with a ticket just came over with the credit card scanner. And the kids cheese quesadilla was way over priced for such a small portion and the server never even offered my kid the drink it was supposed to come with. read more

I got the fish tacos and my friend got the garlic shrimp. They both came with beans and rice. I enjoyed my fish tacos very much. My friend liked the shrimp too. The staff were friendly. The place was average and there was a small bar attached to the restaurant. read more

The food and drinks were fantastic and the staff were very nice. We live right off the Town Green so we're happy to have a great place we can walk to. The restaurant was clean and had a nice interior. The chili relleno was one of the best i've had in a long time. The margaritas were made well and were delicious (and strong!) We will be back very soon! read more

Service was great from the beginning to the end. Very accommodating, very attentive, very personable. Great experience Ambiance was very relaxed. They had a couple TVs with the Warriors playing. They have the bar next door that accommodates patrons. We sat at a booth that needed cleaning. The waitress came over right away and cleaned with apologies. There was a large party WTH other customers and the mouse level remained average. I could hold a conversation with no problem. The menu had enough options to choose from. The prices are comparable to other similar restaurants. They are now serving menudo and Pozole. My husband chose Birria and was very happy. They serve beer, wine and cocktails. They have a long list of tequilas that are on the back. My Pineapple Passion was yum. It was part sweet with a slight kick of lime at the end of each swallow. It included fresh pieces of pineapple. I really enjoyed my taco salad because the shell wasn't the traditional shell. It was more salad ingredients than shell. I added some of their salsa as a dressing. The grilled chicken were in small nugget size and were very flavorful. We enjoy coming here. read more

We wrapped up our three night getaway here. No hard copy menus. Use your smart phone camera & QR the menu. Hubby had a problem. He went to his settings and disabled his WiFi which kept going to xFinity. Bingo. The menu popped up. Chips and salsa and tap water brought to the table. What to order? I still had fish tacos on the brain. I ordered it with black beans and rice as sides. Hubby got the taco salad with carne asada. Our food came quickly. I enjoyed my battered fish. I agree with a few other Yelp reviewers. Small portion sizes. Hubby's taco salad shell was small which meant holding less. Price point didn't match portion size. On the plus side - our server asked us afterwards if we wanted separate checks. It was easy as she keyed our entrees into an handheld credit card device. Easy peasy. read more

Giving this place one star due to finding hair in my to go order shrimp Super burrito. Called them probably 20 min after pick up to make them aware and they mentioned there would be a refund issued but it has been over a week and no refund. I don't want to reach back out for a refund because the money is not the point, I was hoping Lupe's would do right by their mistake. 45$ meal for 2 and what a waste. Won't come here again and won't be recommending to anyone. read more

Food was hot and fresh! Service was great too. We ordered chicken wings, super quesadilla with steak, super nachos with ground beef, and chicken wrap with garlic fries. This was our first time here. read more

SO GOOD. Had the special "Chicken Stew" with vegetables. Nice depth of flavor and vegetables cooked just right. My boyfriend got the posole and asada + el pastor street tacos. He raved about the tacos and I tried his posole which was also so yummy. Service was great and super friendly. So glad we happened upon this spot as we were driving through. I highly recommend! read more

Been here a nu.ber of times so I need leave a review. We had chile rellano and pastor soft tace with rice and pinto beans. Chille rellano was good but pastor taco one of the best tacos ever. Pastor fantastic . Rice and beans also good. Had a Modelo and margaritas. We will be back. read more

Just came here for booze, but it's got a pretty chill atmosphere! Not really sure what they even have on the menu but I'm pretty sure it's your standard Mexican stuff. And if that's the case, then we all know that's probably pretty good, because how hard is it to mess up Mexican food?! Tortilla, beans, rice, cheese, meat. That's it! That's all you need to make 80% of the dishes! And it's amazing!! Anyway, we got some cocktails, margaritas and what have you. Very good! Super refreshing, too. Just the hammer on the nail to start the Blackout Train!! Yeehaaaaaaw!!! All aboard!! read more

We got lunch take out on 4th of July. The staff was very welcoming and the food was ready at the time promised when I called the order in. The interior was nice, clean and spacious.. not too crowded but hey it was a holiday. We got the chili verde plate and the steak California burrito. The salsa was not my favorite but I would definitely return here when we are back for a visit :( read more

First, let me say this restaurant's current aggregate score of 3.5 stars (after 166 reviews) seems about perfect to me. If yelp allowed half stars, that is exactly what I would give. We ordered carry out from here, so I don't have anything to say about the interior or the service, other than that the food was ready on time and the process was smooth. We split their chipotle calamari which was, I think, the highlight. The combination of brightness from the orange, umami and salt from the soy sauce, the depth and sweetness from the honey, and the heat of the chilies made for a tasty, delicious glaze. The calamari were cooked well and the crispy breading held up for the short drive from restaurant to dinner table. It was an inventive dish, and something I would definitely get again (and may fry to recreate at home). I had a carnitas chimichanga--the carnitas were a little on the dry side and not super flavorful. The toppings (guacamole and sour cream) helped, but their salsa was also quite bland. My friend had a veggie burrito and said it was also a little disappointing. She also said the salsa had a more marinara-type flavor than she was expecting. They have an interesting menu, and perhaps we should have steered clear of the traditional Tex-mex fare. The calamari were good enough to make me think I should try them again and only order their more inventive items. read more

HEAR ME OUT!! I consider myself a really picky eater when it comes to Mexican food... And let me tell you ... I have never had a Mexican wrap in my life that has been so juicy with the best tortilla wrap EVER. The carnitas tacos are amazing too. Take my advice. read more

We showed up on Thursday evening, and there was a farmers market going on across the street. Once we made it into lupe's mexican diner, it was pretty nice. The atmosphere was popping, and the service was good. Even though our server "Izzy" was extremely busy, she was very pleasant and served us well. I ordered 2 chicken enchiladas and a beef taco, and my wife ordered Chile Verde. Both meals were delicious. read more

Food is so good BUT they use Worcester sauce in their salsa. All the food now tastes Worcestery and it is NOT enjoyable. It's too bad cause I won't be back. Used to be my favorite chimichanga but I'll ho somewhere else now. read more

Visited Lupe's for outside dining after walking along the town green. We were there early enough for dinner that we chose our spot in the outdoor dining area. We had a choice of a paper menu or the code on our phone to read the menu. I have to say very slow service. We were not told of any specials (but then I didn't ask either, didn't expect to have to ask). Salsa and chips arrived well before our drinks which were a soda and water. Chips were good, salsa not so much. Two burritos were ordered and delivered after a wait. Then I had to wave over the waitress before she dashed back indoors to get refills on our drinks. And another wave to pay. Food was fine, service not good. read more

Good service. Fast and easy to order. Had carne asada, chips guac and salsa, enchilada, tamale with margaritas. Ate outside. Food was fine. Nothing special and not bad. Kinda like food that you'd cook all the time at home and eat on a regular day. read more

Lupe's Diner is a really nice place. The staff is super nice. I can tell they have the best pastor tacos in the area. They also have a bar and those margaritas are magic. I definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Burrito bowls are fantastic. Nice folks and a great bar. The only thing they need is a little updating on the interior

Great food, great service. The shredded chicken tacos are delicious. All the ingredients are fresh with authentic Mexico flavors

Food was great! Drinks were even better! The service was ok, it wasn't packed it just took the waitress a while to get to us, but the food made up for it. Clean restaurant, we chose to eat outside, their agave room is gorgeous. They accept Apple Pay. read more

The team in the back is great, burritos are amazing, and it's right in the green. Agave bar attached. Always get my order right and done quickly. Highly recommend read more

DON'T GO HERE! The food has improved over the last few years, but is still average with the prices continuing to go up. I ordered a super burrito for take out. It was over $17 with tax. I tapped my credit card to pay, and although I did not select to add a tip, the cost bumped up to $20.83! I told the lady that I didn't mean to add a tip and she insisted that I did it. Their system is obviously too easy to accidentally do that, as I'm sure this must happen to others as well. I told her there was no way I was paying almost $21 for a burrito. She didn't know how to credit my account and needed another lady to help her. They couldn't figure it out, so they gave me $3 and some change back in cash. They were laughing about it at the same time, trying to embarrass me. I politely asked for another salsa because there was only one tiny cup included and was told they charge for it. It's funny how chips and salsa are always unlimited for free when you eat there, but I ask for one extra small one to go and am refused?? I've NEVER been charged there or any other place before. This was obviously retaliation for wanting my accidental tip back, which was due entirely to their shady payment system in the first place. There are too many good Mexican restaurants in Windsor to put up with this greed and terrible customer service. I suggest Martin's Taqueria, Diana's Restaurant, or Taqueria California. They all have better food and treat their customers with respect. read more

We were so pleased to see they were open on the evening of the 4th since we missed dinner. We ordered to go just before closing. They were friendly, super fast and the food was great as always! I got the carne asada tacos and a burrito and it was perfect! read more

This place is reliably good. It's been my go to since it opened. The staff is always friendly and they take care of their employees with lots of days off for family time even if it means closing the restaurant a few days. The food has been consistently great for years too! read more

I have never heard of this place and glad we stumbled upon it last week. The bean and cheese burritos are delicious. Refried beans and added sour cream to it. Breaded fish tacos were incredible. I'd prefer one corn tortilla, but I get that it can get soggy with the sauce. I love them and been craving them since last week. One of my favorite things about Lupe's is their red sauce. Mexican food to me is nothing without the sauce. Not overly spicy, just right. The guacamole was pretty incredible too. I doubt I'll explore the menu further because I typically order the same stuff. Once I've found what I like, that's it for me. Another great thing about this spot is how quick the orders get made-10 mins is pretty quick! Friendly professional staff too makes ordering over-the-phone easy! read more

This is actually one of my favorite places to eat Mexican food. They have a great happy hour and drinks are great! The server Carlos is always super nice and talkative! I do wish that they would make my margarita blended but on the rocks is okay as well. I usually always get the super nachos with my boyfriend or I get a combo plate with a hard she'll taco and enchilada with rice and beans. The food is always super hot and fresh. They have free chips and salsa for you to eat when you get there. Obviously not now because of Covid in all, but a great place to come and enjoy a night out with some friends and drinks. read more

I discovered Lupe's because they offered an incredible deal through MySonomaDeals.com (sign up if you live in Sonoma County). This is my second visit here. Both times the service was excellent, friendly and attentive. Both visits my server came by to see if everything was satisfactory; sadly a rarity in the restaurant business and one of my pet peeves. House Margarita on the Rocks with salt also arrived with a partial rim of chili rub. Nice touch. Chili Relleños were excellent and had a delicious buttery taste. Conveniently located on The Green. Outdoor patio available too Happy Hour 3-6 M-F. I will buy more $25 gift certificates. read more
