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

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.

Garlic Bread brought to the table, one of the positive things from our dinner.

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.

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.

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!

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?

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!

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!

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.

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.

Loved the aesthetics of the restaurant and service is attentive. Food is just okay. The chicken in the enchiladas did not taste fresh and there was nothing special about them. Rice was super dry! Having said that, yes I would still go back to try something different.

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.

For a birthday is it better to go to a weekend brunch or dinner?

Dinner. But depends on how many ppl in your party. Make reservations if it's dinner. This place is jumping. Feels like San Francisco when you walk through the doors

How do I make a reservation for this location in Fairfield ? Also, why isn't there a phone number listed?

Online on the website

Is lunch is as fun as dinner time?

Yessssss!!!!!

Is this place kid friendly?

Yes we took our 5 year old and he loved it.

Do they have happy hour here?

No. Most likely since they open at 5pm it is already dinner time

Do they take reservations,?

Open table for making reservations

Was trying to book the private room for Fairfield ? I see no mail and no one answers the phone and vm is full anyone know how to reach them? No one answers ever?

Call them around 5:30 pm at night. The owners dont seem to understand how to run a business properly. They need a lot of fine tuning.

Is it 21+ on saturdays?

No it's not

The servers were nice and personable. Husband noticed they had ceviche on the menu, either camaron (shrimp) or pescado (fish) "made at time of order". When the ceviche came out, we were both blown away. Plenty of fresh fish pieces served with a darker sauce, not the usual clear lime juices. The flavors were so fresh and full of umami, it was a burst of goodness that you must try! I asked someone about this - turns out he was the chef! I forget his name but he was so gracious in explaining the salsas he creates and adds to the juice for that delicious burst of flavors! I had never seen this before. It elevated that dish so much. He spoke about how this is actually traditional in his hometown in MX. He then surprised us when he came out with 2 small bowls of the salsas, one brown and one deeper red. So delicious and fun to taste on their own and with chips too! I had a combo plate with the chili verde enchilada and chili relleno. The pork in the enchilada was super fresh, soft, flaky, incredibly yummy! We'll be going back for sure.

Walking in, I was immediately greeted with smiling and welcoming vibes from the ladies at the front and told to take a seat wherever I'd like to sit. The hit for me is that MENUDO is available on a non-weekend! I've been craving it and when I ordered it (on a Tuesday), I hoped it would be fresh and it was! The broth was savory and flavorful as is but with the added oregano, dried peppers, onions, and cilantro to my liking- it just made it even better! The best part was that you can either order it with pata or no pata. Shoooot, you don't have to ask me twice! I said I want the pata hahahaha that with tender and not overcooked tripe was just what I was wanting! If you love menudo, this is a place I'd recommend and go to get it regularly. The MICHELADA MARISCADA is tasty! It's a mixture of seafood in a sweet and tangy sauce. For those who do not like spice, this is a great option. I was with someone who doesn't like spicy food and isn't a big fan of Mexican food but MAN! she killed the entire plate! So now we have a place that we both can really enjoy together. Will be back!!

Grabbed 2 super burritos with everything and some chips. The burrito itself was pretty good, it needed more sour cream and guacamole as it was a little drier than I liked. The ample cheese did help out though. I also really liked the tortilla. Not sure if it was housemade but it had a bit of a chew to it which I liked. Pricing was also fair, $15 each. Now, why did I reduce stars? A few different factors: 1. First off the address takes you to a back empty lot which is fine if you know the area. But I didnt know the area and had a hard time finding the entrance. 2. Their menu is not very clear. They dont list the type of meats they have and on the section where the super burrito is, it has on the top "served with fresh handmade torillas, rice and beans" While I think for this item, the rice and beans were inside it seems confusing since I now expected rice and beans on the side. 3. Walking it, it seems empty and odd. Such as a restuarant that doesnt quite fit? 4. Bathrooms were smelly and dirty.. With no guests there you would think they would take the time to clean it and sanitize.... Overall, the food saved their stars. I would give it a 3.5 and hope they can improve the other factors.

We've seen this place every time we come to visit the city and it always looked busy so this time…read morewe had to try it out. It was a Saturday early evening and it was already busy. We were able to sit down right away in the bar area so that was nice. Our waiter came over pretty quick to see if we wanted anything to drink. We ordered some waters, a Paloma, and a beer. He came back shortly with chips and salsa and waters. We took a few minutes before we ordered and for our order we ordered the Birria tacos that came with beans and rice and the enchilada and Tamale with beans and rice. The chips were fresh and the salsa was really delicious. It was just enough spice in it and the flavor was great. Our entrees came out shortly which was pretty fast. The Birria tacos were fresh and hot, the flavor was great, and the dipping sauce completed the tacos. The Tamale and Enchilada was also delicious. The Chicken inside the enchilada was tender and tasty, the tamale was also fresh, tender, and cooked perfect. The highlight of the meal even with everything tasting great already were the beans. The beans had so much flavor to them, and cooked perfect. I don't know what they put in the beans or how they make them but, they are the best refried beans I've ever had. Our waiter was really good, I didn't get his name but kudos to him as well. The place is really big inside and has outside seating, with a bar area as well. I will definitely be back when I'm in town. I took pics of the food from the people next to us a burrito and a burger of some kind.

Certainly not NOT impressed with the service. I asked for a burrito to go. They said no problem. So…read moreI ordered a carne asada burrito. I asked to add jalapeños- they said that would cost an extra $2. That is crazy. I know food prices are rising but jalapeños are still inexpensive - I've eaten at hundreds of Mexican places - not one ( except Taco Hell - Bell- ) has charged me for jalapeños. So after taking my order he told me to come back in 15 minutes - like standing there and waiting was going to cost them money - how rude. Another bad 1st - being told I can't stay and wait for my order at a place I ordered from - WTF? Also the prices are too high - I can get burritos in San Francisco for $12 and they're great - as I did yesterday at a street fare - I thought $7.95 was too cheep for a burrito - but $18 in a small town? The burrito better be best tasting ever - writing this while I sit in my car. When I walked in the restaurant it was quiet - Saturday at 8:20 pm in the summer - was dead and it still takes them 15 to twenty minutes to make a burrito? That is crazy. So the ambience did not impress me that's for sure. What could improve? How about treating your customers who come into a place for the first time nice and not ask them to come back? How about not charging for jalapeños when every. other Real ( Taco Bell in NOT Mexican food) Mexican restaurant does not charge for them??? Update - the young man who took my order seemed like he did NOT want to be there - and was not attentive. When I picked up my order there were two women who were friendly and nice to me - so I added a star. The burrito itself - the beef had a excellent taste and the refried beans were good ( yes - I have had bad refried beans before ) so the burrito tasted good but on the bland side as no salsa was inside the burrito. Etc when the first guy took my order and told me jalapeños were an extra $2 I said no to the extra but did request extra salsa - all I got was a small - very small container - I like my Mexican food spicy - and this was not - tho had the potential to be great with some heat - spice - the salsa/ more of a sauce than salsa - had an excellent flavor but no the mild side for me but if had a lot of it - it would have worked as it did have a good to excellent flavor - so it gets only two stars - had excellent potential to be great - but initial bad service from the male staff and charging for jalapeños and very little salsa killed it - can not recommend

I am dreaming and wish I could have some of these tacos and quesadillas right now. Chapos tacos…read morecatered my friend's birthday and boy did they satisfy that craving! Their tacos, quesa tacos, and quesadillas are SO good! My friend hired them for her birthday party in Fairfield for 2 hours and we could not get enough. I was so full after my first plate but wanted more! They have a whole chips and salsa and condiments cart along with their order up for fresh tacos, quesadillas and other options! You can also get rice and beans too. It was definitely a hit. The two staff working were so nice, friendly, and patient with us! At the end they also give you all of the leftover meats and food and pack it up for you too. What a way to make an event enjoyable and all in one! I got multiple carne asada, el pastor tacos, quesa tacos, and quesadillas! Added all of the onions and sauces, yum!

WOWWWW.. Just book them!!…read more Initial contact was easy, I chose to correspond by email. Their response time was good, typically pretty fast (within a couple hours) but no more than 24 hours. Pricing is really good and we had quite a bit of food left over still. I loved that it wasn't just tacos, there's plenty of other options like quesadillas, mulitas, etc. I did paye xtra to have grilled jalapeno and onions, and they're soo yummy! They're super friendly and professional, not to mention the food was really good. I attached a photo of them and their setup (with their approval, of course). I hired them for my small engagement party about 30 adults and everyone raved about how good their food was. I still have guests talking about their food. Their salsas are also so flavorful and it goes from mild, medium and hot. Thank you ChaposTacos for making my special day even better! You're the best!

Conveniently located in Solano Mall - we're always greeted with a smile and leave completely satisfied and looking forward to our next visit. We've had Taqueria Mi Mezcal catering for our family parties too. It's always a big hit and has our guests asking where we ordered from.

After some shoe shopping, I was curious to see the action at the food court. Sad to see that a lot of the food spots have closed recently. Spotted Taqueria Mi Mezcal and checked my Yelp app to see it was worth a try. The 4 star rating was my green light! Lots of choices here! I ordered the shrimp burrito. The shrimp was perfectly cooked and there was a generous portion of meat. Great balance of meat, rice, beans, etc. pretty solid burrito for a mall food court. The chips and salsa were basic. I'd come back again and try some other choices off the menu!

We've been to La Doña on multiple occasions, why I haven't written a review is beyond me…read more.. Today we came in for their new weekend buffet option @ 25.00/person, which includes fountain and iced tea drinks. Excellent idea for a buffet... the last time we had AYCE w/ Mexican choices was at HometownBuffet or even at the Golden Coral lol La Doña offers authentic Mexican cuisine and the thoughtfulness that is seen in the dishes executed was really well done! We saw them being advertised on FB for weekend buffet at La Doña .. trying to get the word out, gatekeeping feels wrong....Hoping these reviews generate more foot traffic! Hits for me were their in-house tortillas and some smack verde chiliquiles! The fam enjoyed all their protein selection, pork chili verde, chicken fajitas, carne asada...their refried beans are so good: thick, creamy and powerfully flavorful with that lard/porky essence, along side some aromatic fluffy rice! There's chorizo and eggs, my daughter devoured along w/ some pineapple jello! Hubby liked their chicken mole and steak rancheros! They even offered a bread pudding w/ a flan topping...so yummy! Pazole was sublimely porky and smokey, and their hominy cooked to the desired consistency, soft and not chalky... their menudo w/ honeycomb tripe was very soft, no need to chew consistency...good enough for the teefless really! Add all fixings they offer on the side w/ a healthy squeeze of lime juice, onions and cilantro. The young ladies who served us brought endless drinks and cleared our plates and checked on us every so often. The vibe is here is always "welcome home familia"... la Doña really takes care of you...check them out yourself and support your local businesses! Mucho gracias!

This has been my favorite Mexican restaurant in Fairfield for over six years now. We haven't been…read morethere in a while so we decided to go back. During that visit, I decided I would try something different. I usually get the three item combo platter and get three enchiladas and one tostada. And I loved it every single time! This time I went with the carne asada platter. I think it was listed under the specialty dishes, but for sure it was $19. The prices have gone up significantly since we started eating here. We loved this restaurant before because the food was great and the prices were reasonable. But I was very disappointed in the Carne Asada. It was a cheap piece of meat that was dry and had average flavor. I think La Dona could do so much better. They have made a lot of changes recently. Hopefully, that doesn't mean the quality of the food isn't as good anymore. They now have a breakfast buffet on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 2pm. Haven't tried it yet but I plan to. Service and ambience is the same as always although I did notice there were less customers than normal. Definitely going back to order my usual. I made a mistake trying something new.
