Highly recommend Mama por Dios in Fairfield. Hobet the manager and Javier the server took very good care of us tonight. We had the birria tacos and lobster pasta which both were 10/10! Great atmosphere , with excellent service. We will definitely be back. read more

Thank you Maria for honoring the gift certificate. Gift certificates are sold on their website but they're only good for the SoCal location.......... Sooooo, the decor is really nice but the lights & loud music were a bit too much for us. The establishment's vibe didn't match the patron's energy. 3outta5 Cocktails 4outta5 Jirafa was ok. Margaritas were excellent Guac 3outta5 It needed some salt Bacon wrapped shrimp 5outta5 no notes Seabass 5outta5 Absolutely delicious Octopus 3outta5 Good flavor but inconsistent cook. I couldn't finish due to the tuff chew Lemon dessert 4outta5 The treasure chest 1outta5 -Unnecessary I'd love to try some of the other dishes but we'll never return. Having to lean into each other to hear/have a conversation didn't make for a pleasant experience. 20-40 yr. olds, I think can appreciate the vibe more. #GoTaste&See (unless flashing lights and loud music aren't your thing) read more

Worst experience of customer service I've ever had! Especially to the host and manager . Reserved an open table for a party of 7. The table was not ready and told us to wait 20 minutes. This is in spite of being charged $ 25 per person for a guaranteed seat to be available upon arrival. 30 minutes have passed and no table still. But we noticed people going in and out. And people whose reservation at 9:30 got in before us. So we asked the host again for an estimate time and she said 2 minutes. Another 20 minutes have passed and we questioned the host one more time and this time with the supervisor and gave us another 2 minutes, and he stated "when I say 2 minutes it will be 2 mins" and he left. After waiting for almost an hour we asked the host again and told us if we can't wait we are free to go. With shock of what she just said all of us burst out and expressed our disappointment . And she cried out for help from the manager whom she should've called from the beginning if she can't figure out how to accommodate a big party. And what's shocking is the manager showed up not to solve the problem but to kick us out. It's obvious that the place is packed or overbooked. That's why I think they decided to kick us out . Luckily open table refunded my deposit for this booking. What they could have done is offer 2 separate small tables to accommodate a big party. Instead of apologizing for the delay the host just kept saying that the table for a bigger party is not ready. (What's the purpose of reservations then???) We also felt discriminated because it seems like they only accommodate a party that speaks Spanish read more

We were a party of five dining on a Thursday evening, and unfortunately, the experience was a huge disappointment from both a service and food quality standpoint. The restaurant was not particularly busy, which made the lack of service even more frustrating. Our food arrived cold, and it wasn't very good flavor wise to begin with, so having it served cold made the experience even worse. One person in our party ordered the surf and turf, which came out significantly later than everyone else's food. It was delivered on a push cart and assembled tableside, which could have been a nice experience, but the server handling it seemed completely uninterested. She didn't smile, say anything to us, or provide any sort of customer service. She essentially assembled the dish and tossed the plate in front of him before walking away. We also hardly saw our actual server throughout the evening. I ultimately had to flag him down toward the end of the meal just to ask for water refills and to cancel appetizers that had never even come out. What made it even worse is he was not apologetic at all. A lady will come around a take photos of your group and bring them back out printed and framed for $25 per picture. That's nice if you're celebrating something but still pricey. For how expensive this restaurant is, we expected a much higher level of service and food quality. The ambiance definitely gives off a high-end, upscale feel, but unfortunately, the food and service did not match what the restaurant is trying to portray. Overall, we left feeling very disappointed and would not consider the experience worth the price. Do better. Oh, and make sure you check your receipts because tequila shots were added to ours that we did not order. read more

I use to live in the area and this location opened right after I moved. I have been wanting to come by. When I finally made plans to visit, I love the decor and atmosphere of the place but the welcoming wasn't really welcoming. Was asked if we had a reservation, which we didn't. I asked if walk ins are available or if we could sit at the bar. They don't have a bar seating area so no. We were sat in the middle area. The tables by the walls were mainly booths for larger groups while the middle tables would have guest of 2, 3 or 4 Our server first greeted us in Spanish and began speaking more in Spanish even though we replied in English after not understanding what he said we just ordered our drinks speaking in English. He continued to speak Spanish to us every time he came by. He knows English though and we kinda wondered why he kept speaking in Spanish to us. Me and my cousin have mixed ethnicity so we kinda look Spanish but based on our tone in speaking you could tell we only know English. Later I noticed that the booth tables were all Spanish speaking and the middle tables had every other ethnicity but I could be jumping ahead thinking wrong and the guest in booths made reservations Besides all that mentioning the star off issue, the food and drinks were great. Seriously on the high side, lunch or dinner here is definitely a celebration anniversary date night place I wanted the Tomahawk steak but after seeing that they cut it for you in front of your group I didn't think it was worth it. I probably wouldn't return any time soon but it's a must try for sure. The to go bags are so cute too as well as the delivery of the bill. Everywhere is picture perfect and the bathroom entrance to all is selfie central. We came on a Saturday and had late lunch around 4p read more

We went to Mama Por Dios in Fairfield on a Sunday to celebrate a birthday and made a reservation for a party of 6. Unfortunately, we were not seated right away despite having a reservation. The restaurant didn't seem very busy at the time, with only about four other parties, so we were a little confused about the delay. Once we were seated, it took quite a while for our server to come over and take our order. Since we had just come from a winery and it was sunny outside, it would have been nice if we had been offered water or drinks while waiting. Once our server, Roberto, started taking care of us, the service was great. He was attentive and did a great job throughout the rest of our meal. The food was okay. The Camarones Por Dios was good, and we also tried the Entraña Prime steak. After waiting so long to order, we were hoping the food would stand out more. The drinks were also okay but didn't really stand out. The tres leches cake, however, was good! The manager came by to check on us, and we gave her our honest feedback. Hopefully, our comments were taken into consideration. The restaurant itself is very cute, with beautiful décor and nice furniture. There is also plenty of parking. Our bill was $311.42 for the food and drinks for six people. Overall, the experience had some positives and some areas that could be improved. I would consider going back, especially because Roberto provided great service and the atmosphere was nice. read more

So we drove an hour and 15 minutes to try this spot out for my sisters birthday. In total 14 of us went, which of course we reserved our spot ahead of time so they knew. We saw the videos on TikTok and other social media platforms and were looking forward to eating here. As soon as you walk up the place looks amazing, inside the ambience and decor, the lighting and video playing, it looks very upscale. We were sat down fairly quickly, they took our drink orders and we were ready to order so we skipped the appetizers. They did bring some garlic bread to the table, it was really good, soft and full of flavor. At first our server was upbeat, everyone smiling, so we were ready to eat. Food came out quick, however, disappointing. I had the cheese green enchilada, the enchiladas were good but the rice and beans had no flavor. My son had the filet with truffle fries, he liked the fries and the steak was "ok." It was cooked correctly just didn't wow us. My wife had the chicken fajitas, we had to ask for the condiments like cheese, sour cream, pico de gallo, I would assume it would come with the meal, which she needed because the chicken lacked some flavor. Overall no one was impressed with the food. Aside from the food, which was just ok, our server never came back to ask for refills. My son and nephew had to just drink water since they were thirsty. My sister ordered a drink from the bar, the kind with the fire and flashy stuff, took over half an hour and when she did receive it there was a bug in it (can't make this up). In the end it felt like they were ready for us to go, maybe because they wanted to turn the table, either way, our bill was just shy of $1000.00 for our party, we expected better for what we paid. We would have spent more had they came back and took our drink orders a second time, overall wouldn't recommend unless you live in the area, wasn't worth it for our drive or the price. People that say your paying for the experience maybe haven't gone to restaurants that do both quality food and a unique experience. read more

Ok so this one hurts , had so much hope for this place ! So let's start with the positive, the ambiance was very nice and trendy , the restaurant was also very clean . Our waiter Luis was great , but other than that everything else was bad . Ordered 3 different style enchiladas, Mole , Verde , and some type of peanut cream sauce ,, the Verde was decent , the the rest was not so good chicken was full of water and tough . Also ordered the Filet Mignon , I ordered it Med Rare and it came out well done , it was tough and had little to no flavor , the potatoes that it came with were hard and seemed old , EVERYTHING needed salt . The beans , rice , Guac , all had little to no flavor . Unfortunately this was a let down , there was a couple more issues but I'll just leave this review as is , I would never even consider going back. read more

Venue / Location This place was easy to find as its centrally located off the freeway, right by Solano Mall! There was plenty of parking, especially because it was a Sunday afternoon. I can't say I wasn't a little disappointed as they only offered the brunch menu for lunch after I had spent the better part of the morning drooling over the main seafood dishes served during dinner! But I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the brunch menu items...and that was my oversight. As a party of 10, I proactively made a reservation on open table as I didn't anyone getting hangry - including myself. Lol! When we arrived, it was super quiet and we were seated quickly! This place is SO IG friendly! Lots of lovely spaces in the restaurant for pics AND the food and drink presentation was ON POINT! Chicharrón and guacamole were delish. Everything was tasty! Only missed regular tortilla chips! lol! That's me! All dishes were beautifully plated and mouth watering. Run, don't walk! It's not cheap, but great quality! read more

Our experience at Mama Por Dios was absolutely exceptional. From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptional--the atmosphere, the food, the drinks, and most importantly, the service surpassed all expectations. Michael was outstanding. He went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of our dining experience was flawless. He took the time to expertly explain the menu, answered all our questions, and offered incredible recommendations for our dinner, sides, beverages, and desserts. Every suggestion was perfect, and we enjoyed every bite. What truly distinguishes Michael is his authentic passion for hospitality. He was attentive without being intrusive, personable, knowledgeable, and highly professional. He anticipated our needs, checked on us throughout the evening, and made us feel like valued guests from start to finish. The servers at Mama Por Dios exemplify unmatched professionalism, attentiveness, and dedication to creating an unforgettable dining experience. They set the highest standard for outstanding customer service. Our evening was flawless, largely thanks to Michael's exceptional service. If you dine at Mama Por Dios, insist on requesting Michael. He is an invaluable asset to the restaurant and consistently delivers a service level that deserves recognition. This was a 10 out of 10 experience, and we will definitely return! read more

More upscale than I was expecting. They did a nice job remodeling the inside and made the inside more eloquent and inviting. The overhead large screen was at first distracting but mesmerizing altogether. I kept thinking this would be a great place for a nightclub. Bar was impressively huge with what appeared to be many top shelf liquors. The food was very good and nicely presented. The guacamole appetizer was HUGE. Came with mini fried tortillas but definitely needed more. Could easily feed 4 or more. Great place for an evening date. Entrees are about $30-$40 pp. $83 for 2 before tip. Certainly more upscale, waiter is in a suite and tie. Can I give a half star more? read more

Claudia was our waitress and she was very attentive and nice. The pictures of this place honestly do it no justice because the whole entire restaurant is a vibe and you just have to go to feel it! IYKYK! Food is really good and the dining is a real experience! You come in and immediately feel like you have been transported to some sort of high end travel destination. Caludia came over with water and a player that honestly looked like an assortment of sushi but nope it was perfectly thin sliced cuts of fruit to flavor your water! I mean come on that was chefs kiss! Fancy Fancy! Even 5 star restaurants we have visited didn't offer this type of service. We definitely want to come back the next time we are out this way! read more

I came in here for drinks and appetizers before I went to go see a play. I initially thought we would just sit at the bar and eat, but they do not have a seated bar area so you do have to sit at a table. But it was easy enough to get a table for two that day - there was maybe a 5 minute wait. Mama Por Dios was quite the experience! And in the best way possible. You can tell the owners put a lot of thought into every single detail of the restaurant. In addition to the excellent service, this place was beyond beautiful. Even the bathroom area. There were so many spots to take cute pictures. This would be a great place for a girls night or date night. I ordered a lychee on the beach - which they made table side. And not pictured, but they set our drink on fires which was beyond cool. The chips and guacamole were good. And the cauliflower was amazing. It was lightly fried with a sauce that taste similar to firecracker shrimp. Our waitress was so sweet and attentive. I'll definitely be back for a real meal. read more

Walking in the establishment is beautiful, We were seated promptly as it was only 30 minutes after they opened for dinner service. We were given water and some sort of garlic bread which was delicious. I then ordered a cocktail which was also very delicious. When it came to ordering, We started with the ceviche appetizer, for entree I originally requested the picanha but was told it was out. That's fine, I then switched to the ribeye with mashed potatoes which was about $10 more. We were expecting to get our appetizer before our entree but unfortunately it came minutes after we were already eating our entree. My entree the Ribeye looked like a flank steak not at all worth that price if it was a ribeye. The side of mashed potatoes were ice cold, had my friend try and she agreed ice cold. When I told one of the servers they were able to get me a replacement. Sadly, the replacement was overall way worse than the original side just actually hot. But it looked like straight mush just plopped into a bowl without a care. On top of all of that we honestly hardly got service from the wait staff took minutes to even complain about the mashed potatoes. Overall first experience here was not favorable and I will not be returning. read more

We saw the videos of influencers dining here (and we even saw some posing for their phones by the bathrooms) talking about this place. We also saw the reviews on yelp that were pointing to the contrary. We decided to give it an honest chance and a group of us went last night (Saturday night). This was our experience. One of the first things you notice outside is the sign saying there is a two hour sitting limit at your table. Then when you first walk in you're hit by a wall of music. It feels like you are entering a club rather than a restaurant. The staff at the front is very nice and professional. We were taken to our table and 25minutes later our waiter arrived. He took our drinks order and left. Other people showed up on occasion to refill water and bring water containers to the table. Some bread was dropped off which was nice. 42 minutes later our drinks arrived. While we were drinking water and eating bread our waiter participated in several birthday celebrations. This involved the music being pumped up to eleven. Bear in mind that the music was already at a solid nine with the base thumping on the regular. So when a birthday kicks off you get the full treatment. Also the waiters are all occupied with that so service stops. Since there were parties all night you can imagine what that was like. So yes, nearly an hour after we arrived our waiter finally decided to ask what we would like to eat. Since we were starving we ordered appetizers, our main courses and some more drinks so we'd have something to eat while waiting for our food to be prepared. We made it clear that the appetizers were to come first and he said he of course and that he understood. A few more birthday celebrations later about twenty minutes later the appetizers started arriving. It came in a couple of waves with only one of our party not getting theirs. Less than five minutes later our main courses arrived. There wasn't even enough space on the table for all the food especially since there were empty glasses and plates that nobody was coming around to clean off. So we started stacking things on the bench next to us doing our own table bussing. We asked the runner why the main courses were coming out now since the same runner that delivered the appetizers.She just shrugged and ran off. About ten minutes after our main dishes arrived our friend finally received his appetizer. No, I'm not joking. The food was "ok." The filet mignon was just a sliver of meat, not even an inch thick on a slice of onion. It looked like a slightly thick slice of sausage except the filet had no flavor. The mole was definitely not mole. The shrimp that was on top was over cooked and dried out. The lobster enchiladas were small and didn't have much lobster. The rice and beans were completely unappetizing looking. Other people had similar issues with their dishes unfortunately. Our party mentioned the octopus was great, the bread served in the beginning was good, the appetizer of cheese fondue was good. The chicken and shrimp on the fajitas was dry, and the lobster on the lobster spaghetti was dry. The mole was definitely an 'American' flare. Wrapping up our experience when we get our checks in our little pirate box even though we were six people table that paid in 3 different checks, they still tacked on a mandatory 18% tip plus an extra 3% for using a credit card to pay. In summary this was a disappointing experience from the protray on social media and the restaurants website. For a place advertising themselves as a high end modern Mexican restaurant it was anything but except for the prices. Also, at $16 a shot for Jameson that's just crazy. If this was truly a high end restaurant where the service is impeccable than I would have no issue with that. But at a place that is pretending to be such it's just insulting. We've ate at plenty of those and it's worth it. I would not expect modern Mexican to include hamburgers, spaghetti, or traditional ribeye steaks as restaurant fare. It felt like a confusion or at least lack of commitment to the theme. Sadly, this was a prime example of instagram influencers not reflecting reality. The service was extremely poor. The food was mediocre at best. Honestly we would have had a better experience with far better service at the Chevy's next door where the service is better and the food matches expectations. After dinner we all talked and agreed that this would be the first and last time we come to this restaurant. read more

Mama Por Dios - Spicy shrimp tempura. - Mexican Near Me - Fairfield, California

The review below in quotation marks is original 5 Star review. I came home and made this edit. This place is trying too hard. Ive been waiting all year to eat here. My friend made a bday dinner reservation for a Thurs night. We get there & tell hostess & server we're here for my bday. Maybe I'll get a free scoop of ice cream! The place looks amazing. The server Roberto was very pleasant and polite. Then it all went downhill. For a Thurs night, place was maybe 15% capacity. We get a photo girl saying she wants to take our pictures. Assumed it was for their website. Food and drinks were good. We are constantly asked by several staff "Enjoying yourself, enjoying yourself, enjoying yourself." Not if we needed anything, but are we enjoying ourselves. Such a specific question. It felt pushy. Photo girl comes back with SIX different photos framed asking for $25/each??? We see another customer with a sparkler in her dessert and staff singing Happy Bday to her. I was hoping I'd get my bday scoop of ice cream with sparkler too. Roberto comes with check & offers "I'll give you both a free dessert if you leave a Yelp review you enjoyed yourself. We're just trying to build up a pressence." Uhm,ok. We were ready to leave but we order dessert & he takes back the check. Now the scam. He NEVER specified to make review NOW for him verify. He brings dessert and he disappears for 15 mins. So this is where he went wrong. He comes back with a 2nd check and it shows charges for desserts. We wait ANOTHER 10 mins for him to take our credit card to pay, the whole time thinking he forgot that the desserts should not have been charged to us. we're confused. By him letting us sit for so long, we started second guessing the whole experience. The place isnt packed, how did he forget his dessert promise to us already? We decide to pay bill with dessert charges so we can just go home. After waiting 10 mins, he comes for credit card and says "you need to leave Yelp review NOW or I can't give the desserts to you." We both looked at him in awe. He walks away with 2nd check and now we're held hostage to get our phones, DOWNLOAD the stupid app to enable us to leave a review, so we can finally pay to leave. My friend was so frustrated she didnt do it, but I was trying to be nice. It takes ANOTHER 10 mins for me to download app, leave a 5 star review and WATCH our server standing behind bar refreshing tablet to verify I left review?!?!. He finally comes back with 3rd and final check, took 1 dessert off for my review, my friend pays for my birthday dinner and we get the hell out. The whole experience felt so pushy. Trying too hard to give that VIP Vegas feel with photo girl, loud music and setting. Almost 30 extra mins of confusion that us feeling like WE were cheap because he left out an important part of his free dessert instructions. In the end the restaurant left us feeling like we were groomed for a Yelp review. I'm still confused why they just couldnt provide a sparkler with a scoop of ice cream? That's all I wanted for my 40th Bday. Im leaving this review, deleting app from my phone and going to bed. "Roberto was polite. Chicken enchiladas were tasty. Atmosphere very Vegas...the remodeled building so well from old restaurant. Lemon dessert was great" read more

Exceptional Service by Claudia! My girlfriend and I visited the restaurant the other day to celebrate a special occasion, and we had an absolutely fantastic time. The atmosphere and the food were incredible, but what truly made our night unforgettable was the outstanding service provided by Claudia. From the moment we sat down, Claudia was extremely attentive, warm, and professional. She went above and beyond to make sure our celebration felt unique and that we had everything we needed. Her recommendations were perfect, and her wonderful energy added so much joy to our dinner. Thank you, Claudia, for your flawless attention to detail and for making our celebration so memorable. We will definitely be back soon! --Francisco read more

I've been to MPD a few times. I held off on reviewing because my experiences were uneven. I'm glad I gave it a few tries. Here are my ratings based on basic criteria: Food: **** Service: *** Ambiance: **** The food is fantastic here. I will preface my experience has been brunch only. I've never had dinner. I will say that their verde sauce here is one of the best I've had. I love me some verde sauce and these guys bring the noise. I especially enjoy the verde crema sauce. OMG. Their Chile Quillas Shrimp with Crema Verde is super good. Also this Tres Leche French toast was addicting. MPD has good to great food. I rated service a 3. We came right before 2 and advised us that they were in a changeover from brunch to dinner. We were fine with that. We ordered dinner type food. What we didn't expect was to wait 1 hour for our food. Most fine dining places shut down for the turnover, but MPD stayed open. Better to close and reopen for dinner. The saving grace is that we've been back for brunch a few times without an issue. The service was very good since. The ambiance in MPD is a visual feast for your eyes. Upbeat music is playing in the background and lots of giant projector screens playing various scenes of Mexico and aquarium life. I can tell this place gets down at night. The furnishing and decorations were all of high quality. No expense was spared. Great place, great food! Just don't go during the turnover. read more

The only con was food so let me get into the pros... Plenty of parking! Had a reservation for 7 on a saturday and was seated right on time. Server was great! Attentive, funny, and very helpful with the menu. There's 2 large spaces people are sat, one is more lively and loud the other more private. Lots of people dressed up for celebrations. For birthdays they bring out a sign, sparkles, turn up the music and CELEBRATE. Depending on what you order you might get a margarita cart pulling up to your table making your drink in front of you. Speaking of drinks- YES. ORDER THE ALCOHOL. Not only are the bartenders good, each specialty cocktail has a cute little theme to go with it - perfect for PICS. Now food, I suggest getting a cut of steak and some sides. Everything else is just okay and not worth the price AT ALL. Check out my pics for reference. All in all. If youre looking for somewhere to celebrate, take a bunch of pictures, and just a fun time all around, make a reservation. Not pictured was the ceviche appetizer - which was delicious! read more

We went for my cousins birthday dinner and it was a really nice experience. We had a nice and attentive waiter. It was also my first time coming here and I can honestly say the food and drinks were delicious. As an appetizer, we ordered this cheese bread and it was so yummy. The bread in itself was super soft. For my main course, I ordered two cheese enchiladas and the order came with beans and green rice on the side. I have never had green rice until this dinner and I can say, it was so delicious! The green sauce on the enchiladas was also very delicious. Now, the drinks were very good and came in nice cups that seemed fitting. I ordered El Tama which is the drink in the longer cup. It had squirt, tamarind vodka, salt and lime juice. Everything that I love put together. They have signature cocktails that I also wanted to try but didn't get the chance to. I would love to come back to try some more. The ambiance was dim lit and had almost like a club feel to it. There was energetic and dance music playing at all times. I believe their signature is when people celebrate birthdays and the workers come out and sing happy birthday. They come out with bottles and flash some lights to give it a nightclub feeling. I will say, we did think that the singing happy birthday was complimentary like most places do but if you want that experience then you have to pay almost $40 for a 10 second moment so keep that in mind. In the end, I enjoyed the food and drinks a lot! read more

I think this is an interesting culinary addition to the options in Fairfield/the surrounding area. I've been 3 times for dinner, and I'll say that it is a very specific experience, and whether it's "worth" it depends entirely on what you're looking for. DO come if you want: ambience, a drink, a small bite. Don't come if you're starving. The prices are on the high side and the portions are not large. The service is good, however, be aware that they will try to upsell you. RECS: the Camarones Costa Azul are delicious, as well as the Grilled Cauliflower. The grilled octopus is tender and yummy. The Enchiladas Verdes and both shrimp ceviche options are very doable. PROCEED WITH CAUTION: the Esquite is a decent app as well, though I feel this one could use more flavor, which I could say for many things I tried - although it's worth mentioning that I am picky and prefer my food highly seasoned; I requested and wore out a bottle of Cholula... The Lobster Mac & Cheese is 97% mac & cheese. The tacos don't have much filling for what they cost. The fajitas are bland and they charge for extra tortillas. One of the servers outright told me on one visit that the food is for a "certain palate." I knew exactly what he meant. It feels like touristy places I've been to in Tulum. The flavors here are a bit muted, but it is still a nice spot to go for a date or a drink with friends, or if you want to treat yourself to an elevated experience. **It can be noisy if you're trying to have a yap.** read more

Ambiance 9/10 Food 3/10. It's all hype a great place to take picture but that's it. Food under seasoned, over sauced and over priced. Friends had surf and turf lobster over cooked drenched, and white sauce. Lobster enchiladas drenched in green sauce only two things were good cauliflower and the bread. read more

I've been to this location twice now. It's definitely an experience going here. First let me start off by saying if you're sensitive to flashing lights and loud noises this place is not for you. Also not a great place if you're looking to have a cozy quiet conversation with someone..... BUT if you're out to have a good time and for some of us relive our college party days this is your place. The ambiance is over the top club vibes Service is also over the top with wait staff there almost as your personal concierge for the evening. Starting off with what slice of fruit would you like in your water glass. No one is ignoring you here. Food is good. We had the guacamole with chicarones and ribeye. Which was superb. We also had the shrimp ceviche that was probably the best thing we had that night. Beware the sauce is in carry's a lingering heat but is fantastic. I ordered the Waygu burger and others order the fajitas all tasty. Finally the lemon mousse which was a same to cut into because it looked so much like a real lemon sitting on the plate. Definitely someplace to experience. read more

Very fun, loud, club vibe restaurant. If you're looking for a new place to chat and have a super chill experience, this might not be the place for you. If you have light/strobe sensitivity you might not wanna go. We had brunch here. Good service. The music was kind of loud. Everytime a table ordered special shots the music got even louder and staff would come around with sparklers etc. The food was good! Chilaquiles and I think tres leches French toast. I got a Mexican coffee and it was delicious.It's a beautiful space! This is a very fun and lively, party vibe restaurant. Great for a celebration or birthday! But it can be a little overstimulating. I would go back! read more

First time here and enjoyed the service by Roberto. Highly recommend for anyone that's around Fairfield or Vacaville.

If you're looking for a new spot that serves infused Mexican food with a fun, energetic vibe, this is the place. The ambiance is great-beautiful décor, a DJ playing upbeat music, and live shows available for an additional cost. It's perfect for celebrations like anniversaries, birthdays, and bachelor or bachelorette parties. I came here on a double date and highly recommend making a reservation, especially for a later time. Since we had a late-night reservation, we decided to order several appetizers to sample different items from the menu. We were welcomed with a complimentary esquite for the table along with bread, which was delicious. We ordered the Guacamole with Chicharrón de Ribeye ($28), Queso Fundido ($13), Aguachile de Ribeye ($38), and attempted to order the Tuétanos ($18), although that dish never arrived. The only issue with the queso fundido was that it came with just two tortillas for a table of four, but we asked for more and they were happy to bring them. We each had a couple of margaritas and cocktails, which ranged from $14-$18, with other premium options available at higher prices. There is also a photographer who walks around taking photos, which are later printed and offered for purchase. The restaurant has a two-hour dining limit. Because the servers are also involved with the shows, service can be a bit slow at times. Overall, our experience was good, though there were delays with drinks, table service, and one forgotten food item. Despite the minor issues, we enjoyed the atmosphere and food and would consider coming back to try their brunch read more

Super great vibes! The food is bomb and the staff is really attentive. Vanessa was our waitress and she was so helpful with the menu. The manager was phenomenal as well. He checked on us twice and even gave some suggestions which ended up being delicious. We come often and have been coming since they opened but this might have been our best visit! Great job staff, cooks & a manager! Only con: they need to play reggaeton & Latin music for the vibes! People will return more with better music and in turn buy more drinks read more

The ambiance was beautiful, loved the place. As we got our table, we waited about 25 minutes for our server to finally come, I guess she was on break. Javier made up for it though, he took our order and everything came out fairly quick after that, and the food was delicious and the drinks. He gave us complimentary house flan for dessert to make up for the inconvenience. We will be back! read more

You're here for the ambiance and the aesthetics...NOT the food. We came for our anniversary, and although they asked what occasion we were celebrating, they never acknowledged it. I say that because we saw them parade out sparklers and signs for 3 different birthdays like it was the club. But back to the ambiance and food, and service. We were seated at a table which was ok but for the occasion we preferred a booth. One was available but needed servicing and when we asked to switch the hostess told us it would be about 40 minutes to clean it. What? Our server was fine. They were out of lamb so my husband ordered steak. He was underwhelmed. I ordered the lobster enchiladas. They tasted better the next day. For apps we had what was called ceviche but was absolutely not ceviche. It was awful. We had the margarita flights. All tasty. The restaurant is modern and pretty. I love the video ceiling. Other than that, no thanks. It was a disappointment. read more

This restaurant is the perfect combination of a visual experience and an unforgettable dining experience. From the moment you walk in, every detail of the décor is designed to impress, creating an elegant, vibrant atmosphere that's perfect for any occasion. The food was absolutely delicious, and the drinks left me speechless. You can tell they put a lot of care into both the presentation and the flavors. Our server was also outstanding--10/10. Friendly, attentive, and always checking in without being intrusive. Service like that turns a great meal into a memorable experience. If you're planning to visit on a weekend or with a large group, I'd definitely recommend making a reservation. We went on a weekday, and it wasn't too busy, so we were able to enjoy everything at a relaxed pace. One last thing I have to mention: the restrooms are absolutely beautiful. You'll probably end up having your own little photoshoot before you leave. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, planning a date night, or simply looking for an amazing restaurant, Mamá Por Dios is definitely worth the visit. read more

Everything was delicious, the food, the atmosphere Claudia is extraordinary!! Thank you for everything!!

A bigger-than-life restaurant filled with glitz and nonstop showmanship. There's a lot happening at once, big signs waved around like it's fight night, a roaming cart with a tableside cocktail mixologist, drink flights paraded past you, and even a ceiling playing a video loop of turtles swimming overhead. It's definitely not the spot for an intimate, quiet meal. The menu offers a wide selection, but the food (and service) itself fell short for me in more ways than I expected. Portions are small, and the flavors didn't quite live up to the high-energy vibe the restaurant puts out. It was an experience, I can cross it off my "need to try" list. read more

I thought I posted this review already but I guess not lol. This place was a VIBE. I feel like this place is good for celebrations, ladies night or just a sexy date. We came here with a few couples and we just wanted to celebrate love. Now they don't do anything special for anniversaries, which was unfortunate because I love a celebration but it's still cute just know, if you want any royal treatment....... You're the one paying for it here lol oh and I forgot to add the food was good but pricey read more

Really fun drinks! Food had good flavor. The service is a little over the top- trying to be something it's not. First off- no salsa is available to go with the chips. The waiter told us the owner doesn't like "messy items". There is NO salsa and no ice water.....in a Mexican food restaurant in a parking lot in Fairfield. Next you get chilled water (no ice) and they bring a giant platter of sliced fruit to go in the water. Kinda of weird for but ok. Give the people what they want- ICE. SALSA. Next we were brought out house bread....to go with our Mexican food?? (Would love chips and SALSA!). The bread was literally like a Hawaiian sweet roll with what I joked tasted like lays potato chips on top..... it was VERY LITERALLY lays potato chips crushed on top like a gourmet item LOL. JUST WHY?! They also didn't want any bags on the tables. They have a coat rack next to every table they want you to put things on- including my friend's birthday gift that was in a bag. The waiter checked in like every 5 seconds. He told us how the owners really want a "elevated" experience. Talked about no messy items yet again. It was too much and did not make for an enjoyable experience. This place is not made for Fairfield.... read more

Honestly, the service was good, and the staff was nice and attentive. However, the food was absolutely terrible. Seriously, Mama, what happened? For the prices they charge, I expected much better quality and flavor. The food was bland, disappointing, and definitely not worth the price. I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately, the food was a huge letdown. I would not come back based on the food alone. Very disappointing experience. read more

The food and drinks are really good! Walk-in's are not likely unless you're willing to wait awhile and reservations are hard for Friday-Sunday. I've been here twice with both good service. I like that they come to your table often. They're quick to fill your water and grab empty plates. The music and vibe is nice. The bathroom area is nice and picture worthy. I'd say this is a great place to celebrate something. read more
