Without any exaggeration, this is one of the best Mexican restaurants in the valley (and we've been to a lot!). Keep it simple, order their steak and shrimp plate, a side of chile rellano and you're all set - oh wait, definitely some margaritas, but go with the premium stuff;their house margarita is no different than something you'd get at the bar at El Torito. Pay the extra $2 and enjoy. The service and staff give total family owned vibes and are super attentive and friendly. We had the pleasure of being attended by, Claudia - she was the best and very welcoming! They also did a great job with the decor and overall "Mexican restaurant vibe". read more

We went here for dinner on a Thursday and had a great experience. The service was amazing and the food was pretty good. They gave us warm chips with salsa (which we love!) while we waited for our drinks. We ordered a couple of sangrias and beers and also shared a plate. All of them were so good! They also have happy hour from 11am-7pm all 7-days of the week! This place is tucked away in a corner of a strip mall (next to Cafe 86 iykyk!) with plenty of parking. Definitely worth checking out. Happy eating! read more

Came here for drinks with friends and really enjoyed myself. My friends and I wanted to catch drinks before heading to another spot so we thankfully found the spot on Yelp and headed over. Micheladas Mex Grill is located in a shopping area. Parking could be tricky but it's definitely worth finding parking to try this restaurant. We sat at the bar and were given a menu of lots of drink options. Service was great and we had a great time having conversations with staff. I ordered the margarita while my friend ordered a beer. I wish we had more time to try the food! Ambiance was amazing and it was so much fun inside. Lively and people kept coming in. I'll definitely be back! read more

The staff were great, very attentive to our requests and orders. We went for happy hour so it was a nice place to chat with my friends to eat some tasty Mexican food and have a couple margaritas. The ambiance was nice, very casual. read more

I was in the mood to try a new Mexican restaurant that was not too much of a drive. Micheladas Mexican Grill, in Nortridge, had come up before, but not being a fan of Micheladas, I never paid much attention. This time though, I decided to give it a go. It is located in a strip mall on Reseda, that is well known for several eateries and businesses. Because of this, and its popularity, parking is a constant nightmare. Major car gridlock, unhappy visitors. I was lucky to find a parking spot pretty soon without pulling out my hair and having to play musical cars several times. The inside of the restaurant, though small, is beautifully decorated with Mexican crafts, paintings, artifacts and vibrant colors. The music takes you to the wonderful country and what I liked most was, that it was not too loud. Just done right. The menu is extensive, and yes, there is much more than micheladas. There are numerous menu items in all the major food categories and more. An enticing drinks menu is also available. The complimentary chips, with the regular salsa and the by request, habanero, were well prepared. I ordered the one item combo plate and chose the beef tamale, with only beans. The flat long rectangle tamale was presented sitting on the husk and bathed in a red sauce. It was different, not encapsulated, all good. Service, the several staff, was timely, respectful and always attentive. This was a good find. Must come back to try more from the menu. read more

Great local spot! Parking was easy in the shopping plaza. The restaurant was clean, baby-friendly, and the staff was very friendly. Service was fast and the food was delicious. The menu is huge with lots of options. I ordered the shrimp tacos, very generous portions and they came with rice and beans. My husband got the California burrito, which was also a big portion and came with really tasty rice and beans. The chips and salsa were excellent, honestly some of the best salsa I've had. Very fresh and smooth, and not loaded with big chunks of onion (which we really appreciated). We've ordered takeout from here before, but this was our first time dining in and we'll definitely be back! read more

Micheladas Mex Grill - Baja shrimp Baja Tacos - 2 Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Northridge, California

Located in the back corner of a large multiple businesses plaza. Many parking spaces, mostly taken, yet managed to find parking right in front of the restaurant. They have a fully stock bar, TVs but unsure if they are closed caption. The music was a little louder than normal, but we were still able to carry a conversation without yelling. The service was good. 1 waitress during lunch hour. She kept insisting if we wanted to order any appetizers. We did have to ask multiple times for refills which she kept saying, I'll be right back. I ordered off the lunch special menu - 2 item combo (1 crispy chicken taco, 1 chicken enchilada with rice and beans. I must say that the beans were delicious, tasted fresh from the pot. Overall, I will return. read more

A must try Mexican restaurants. Parking is a bit tricky but the place is worth it. You get fresh chips and salsa upon seating. We ordered the carnitas plate and the carne asada plate. The price was reasonable and the food was delicious. The carne asada was tender, cooked medium as requested, and so flavorful. The table next to us had desserts and if I had room, I would have definitely tried them. The place was clean and beautifully decorated. One small issue that could be improved was the service. Our male waiter was lagging. We asked for more salsa but he never refilled the chips. He never came for refills or asked us if we wanted anything else... until the check time. I still gave this place 5 stars. read more

I would give this place 3.5 stars if Yelp allowed but bumped it up to 4 stars because the service was very nice. Came for Happy Hour. The Food- Asada Fries with Carnitas- This was my favorite. Nachos with Shredded Beef- This was good. Drinks- Watermelon Margarita and Raspberry Margarita- Both were decent but I would have liked them to have more of the fruit flavor. They have a pretty nice outdoor patio area to sit in when the weather is nice. Parking can be challenging as they share a lot with many other businesses. read more

There's everything to love about this place. The portions are huge. The food is very good & reasonably priced. They have great happy hour. The service is fantastic.

I've been wanting to try this place out for awhile, and my friend and I came for round after tacos because we were craving chips and salsa, but the tortilla chips were sweet and made it hard to enjoy. & the guacamole could use a bit more seasoning and if I had known that the same size of guac came with the enchiladas Suiza, I def wouldn't have ordered a side of it. But their salsa and sprite was good and their creamy green sauce on the enchiladas was pretty flavorful. I'd like to come back for their molcajete -- looks good! But I'm hoping the chips were a one time mistake. read more

food was nothing special, but filling with the portions! and, thank u for the offjump nacho chips and salsa, especially for the staff to be so on-top-of-it with refills. i think that the staff was the best part of this restaurant because they were always smiling and did not make us feel bad when we raised our hands for requests (e.g. water refills, to-go box, etc). they did not disturb conversation, but still did their consistent rounding to clean up our plates. food also came out pretty quick, so much thanks to the kitchen for getting on our orders asap. I like that the tables have booths because I prefer them over chairs. Parking is easy because they have their own lot. a bit dim, yes, but it is okay because at least the staff was kind enough to break down the menus for us and answer with clarifications :) read more

Micheladas Mex Grill - Mexican Near Me - Northridge, California

The food here is average. It's not great and it's not bad. The service is slow as they are understaffed for a full house on a weekend. Their pastor tacos used to be good but recently when I tried it the quality had gone down. I wouldn't try it again. I dont know if I will try this place again after dining here a few times given there are many better options nearby as well. You can try for yourself and maybe you may like the food. What is always good here though is their micheladas. Those are pretty hard to mess up! read more

I'll go straight to the point about this restaurant. This place is amazing!! From the food, the place, the staff, service and prices. We came 2 days ago as recommended by a friend and it didn't disappoint. First of all the place,, place is very cozzy and very clean. Staff were really attentive and very friendly and very nice. Their service is top notch. The food is very authentic in my opinion. My wife doesn't like mexican but on that day she forgot about it! lol! We ordered the steak and shrimp. Steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The meat is very tender. Shrimp was cooked to perfection. Their rice and beans were very good too. We also ordered the 3 street taco combo and asada quesadilla and they were excellent. Their nachos and salsa are very addictive. That salsa was fantastic. Portions are really big. The tacos were overflowing with meat. The asada, pastor and chicken were equally good. We also ordered the fried ice cream and banana,,, man that was irresistable! Their prices are very competitve compared to some mexican resto or cantina I've been to. We are so happy that we tried this place and for sure will be coming back and bring friends on their happy hour. Hats off to the crew and especially the chef! 5 stars all the way! read more

Really good food and sine really good and fun drinks. Service is always amazing. A great place to go, but beware the parking is a nightmare.

I am starting off with I have never been so disappointed in a Mexican restaurant. The food was absolutely disgusting. Me and my husband both got the same burrito, but I got the steak and he got the chicken. I took one bite of the burrito and had to spit it out. It taste like the steak was cooked in sewer water. Our waitress never came to our table never even checked in on us. We sat there for an hour waiting for them to just give us a checked. And there was not much people in there so it shouldn't have took her this long to give us the check. The environment I would say was mediocre. The parking lot sucked to park. I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Great food and fast service. Everything was fresh and flavorful, and the micheladas were on point. Definitely coming back!

First time visit to this local spot near my church. Made reservations for the patio. Greeting from servers were very friendly. Inside decor was festive and bright. The patio had festive decor as well. Seated quickly, chips and salsa was brought to us and Drinks ordered right away. I ordered the cucumber margarita. I really enjoyed it. We got table side guacamole and it was delicious and not too spicy. We asked for medium style. Menu was quite extensive. Lots of combos offered. I ordered the three beef flautas plate with rice and beans. It was very good and generous. I took one flauta to go home. Fortino (Forty) was our server and he was very polite and attentive. Dishes and drinks were moderately to high priced. Nice spot for our group of five. read more

Solid drinks, reasonable prices, great service (Juan was so nice)! Festive interior too. Mango and sour apple michelada ($12.95) were tasty -- and I'm not much of a beer gal either. Carne asada fries were pretty good too, and def shareable between four. Complimentary chips were served warm with salsa - we got 3 rounds of this lol Horchata ($4.95) was decent, a little watered down. First refill is free. Negra Modelo 16oz a whopping $8.50. SO loves it tho lol read more

Idk if I came on a bad day or what but the service was not it. We got seated got served chips and salsa right away that seemed promising and I soon as I mentioned we were there for happy hour they moved us and seated us in a booth all the way to the end of the restaurant one booth over the one they were using to get their utensils and cups which is understandable maybe they have special seating for happy hour, cool but then they took a good while to take our drink order servers kept serving the area that was not designated for happy hour. I understand it's busy it's Friday but if I have to keep waving you down to get service then that's when I feel like I'm not getting the service I'm supposed to be tipping for. I also ordered the steak and chicken fajitas and kid you not I olny received three pieces of steak. I made them aware and they gave me more but most people won't speak up and it just made it feel like they were trying to take advantage cuz they believed we were drunk (at this point we're were about 3 or 4 drinks in) My husband got the 5 taco plater and all his meat was over cooked and dry. The drinks were okay they messed up my order for that as well. Overall I was not satisfied with the service and food. read more

Easily the most disappointing Mexican dining experience I've had. The red flag appeared immediately with the chips and salsa, which tasted like generic, store-bought products from a plastic container. We even requested green salsa hoping for better, but it was equally as bad.The bean dip tasted weird and we were hoping the main course would be better but, the 'molcajete' was a major letdown.it was served covered in foil--something I've never seen at an "authentic restaurant"-- it had mix of bell peppers and onions, and , the sauce was bad. Given the quality, I'm genuinely confused by the 4.4-star rating. Consider this a warning. read more

Never disappoints . I just had the steak and shrimp with rice and it was amazing! Staff were friendly and welcoming.

Very good service very nice waiters great price for the food and great servings clean bathrooms I loved my dine in experience

Got a to go order here today. Ordered the 3 item combo, but instead of $20, so $22 with tax it came out to $25. I thought that was odd and asked why. She said she charged me $3 for Mole sauce. I love Mole but she didn't explain this when I ordered, only after I questioned the bill. I thought it over and said, nah, not worth the extra charge, just give me regular enchilada sauce. I told her I'm allergic to cilantro and she replied it's only in the guacamole so I said to leave it out. Tapped my card to pay and thought I was done, then she gave me a slip to sign, and I was a little confused. She said she told the cook to put Mole sauce on one of the enchiladas. Cool, thanks, so I guess she wants me to tip, so 1/2 of $3 is $1.50 so that's what I tipped. I am really against tipping on to go food, but she actually did something of value for me so that's fine. Got my food, went home to eat it. Opened up the taco and it has cilantro in the sauce. Opened up the hot sauce and it too had cilantro in it. Great, now a third of my order is not edible by me. The other food was excellent, lots of shredded chicken so large portions. Moral of the story is to check your to go food before leaving this place. Not sure I'll be back since there is so many other places to eat in this area. read more

Sam makes THE BEST micheladas !!!!! Alex, the owner, is amazing and very attentive. 10/10 recommend

We went for dinner and it's was good. The margaritas were good. Service was fast food came out fast. The only down fall was we thought the margaritas were a little weak with the alcohol and the taco meet for the kids was a little too fatty, and the beans were a little cold. But we will give it another try until next time! read more

Now THAT'S a beer! (Negra Modelo on tap in a chilled schooner). Service is always good and food is always great! I asked my server for "a little more pico" and he brought me a pretty generous serving, way more than I expected or needed. But it was good and I shared it with my wife. He charged us $3 for that and I have no qualms about paying for extra food. I just think he should have informed me that there's a charge and allowed me to consent first. read more

Only giving 3 stars because we didn't actually get to eat here, I wish I could leave a comment without having to rate the business. Came here for lunch on a quiet Wednesday afternoon, we asked to be seated outside since we had our dog with us. The man who seated us was friendly, as was the man who brought us chips and water; however, before we were able to order our food, we were asked to leave due to the size of our dog - a young, female cane corso who's about 80lbs. This isn't a complaint about the business, I understand the concern and right to refuse service at their discretion. This review just serves to inform anyone wanting to bring a large dog here, they are dog friendly but not without size/breed limitations. read more

Today, i tried this place out. Once walking in, it is pretty spacious. The decor is very pretty inside. We had a very attentive waitress as well. When we sat down, we had lots of options on the menu to choose from. I decided to order the torta, and they got a fajita combo. The torta bread was pretty hard, and the meat was dry, but my bf fajitas were really good. I think if i go back, I'll stick to my fajitas. read more

Food: 3.5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 What a cute spot! Talk about vibrant and lively! Micheladas is exactly that. The moment you walk in you're met with beautiful colors, artwork, and my favorite little frogs ranitas. We've been to the restaurant twice and that's always a good sign- when you want to return. On both occasions we were greeted and seated quickly. This last visit, we went in around 6:30 pm and the restaurant was quite empty. We were seated and offered fresh chips and house salsa- which actually has picante and a kick! It's delicious. We placed our order: chicken nachos, taco platter, steak quesadilla and a chicken quesadilla, and a la carte enchiladas. My only complaint is the refried beans are cooked in pork fat which I'm sad about because I love refried beans. Most places have a vegetarian option, but here they have cooked beans not refried beans as vegetarian. The beans are good but not the same. Unfortunately, on our first visit we were not told that, despite asking (as you'll see pictures from our first visit)- which is unfortunate. Might be helpful to have them in the menu. The food is okay and the portions are decent. It was our first time ordering the enchiladas and they were good but the sauces- one green sauce and one chipotle sauce- were a bit heavy. The quesadillas are good, however there was a lot of the tortillas edges not covered in cheese or meat- maybe need to distribute better. The tacos were tasty. The rice was standard. Overall, the food is good. You'll definitely enjoy it and leave full. Honestly, I love the place for the art and chips and salsa. You won't be disappointed in the food either. They have a lot to choose from so you'll definitely find something you'll like. Enjoy! read more

Great food, good prices, large portions! We were a group of 3 and decided to share the appetizer sampler. Honestly it wasn't very good. The nachos were super dry, the quesadillas were extremely basic, wings were ok and the taquitos were also dry. We also shared the molcajete. Now that was DELICIOUS. We opted to not add shrimp; and good thing because this comes with so much food! It had steak, chicken, carnitas, chorizo, nopales, queso, and veggies. Not only that but it's also accompanied by rice, beans, guacamole, and pico. Everything was tender, flavorful and very juicy. This couldn't go without drinks and we ordered the Mexican candy margaritas; very tasty but mild on the liquor. Our friend ordered a Hennessy and coke and that was very strong according to her. Our waitress Alma was really nice and attentive. They were a little busy so some things took a little while to arrive but overall good service. I'm definitely going back for another molcajete! P.S If you order a Hennessy and coke the system will "accidentally" ring it up as a double. So if you don't order a double and don't want to pay $20 (!!!!!) for a cocktail check your bill read more
