    How can we preorder for a party order?

    Do they sell masa preparada for tamales?

    Most likely. I've seen the corn husks, the masa flour, and other tamale ingredients there. It's the place I'd look for it first in Fallbrook. Call them or stop by, and they will be happy to help you.

We got some assorted individual tacos and I like the variety they had and that you can get a la carte. Because I love soup I had to get the chicken tortilla and it was outstanding. Will be back!

We really liked our waiter who immediately brought water for the doggie with our iced teas. They start with a complimentary chips and three salsas. All good and chips were obviously fresh. We hit the taco menu for lunch and tried 4 of the 5. These are good sized and not little street tacos. The Al pastor, sadly, was a miss. Ok but a miss. There was odd seasoning like cloves on it and it was little chunks of meat with pineapple and onion but no cilantro The birria, although greasy, was a hit. Very tasty and tender with a tasty although greasy dipping sauce. The shrimp taco was very good. The short rib had a mixed verdict. One didn't care for it but I really liked it. It had a nice smokey taste and was not greasy. The side of beans and rice we added was yum. Service was great. Our guy was so attentive and helpful. Perfect place for a sunny day lunch in Fallbrook!

    Oh wow, what can I say? I haven't read other reviews but whenever I'm in Fallbrook I try to eat…read morehere. The green sauce here is the bomb! I don't know how they make it and they won't tell me but they WILL sell it to you. I wish they had birria but birria isn't easy to find in many Mexican restaurants. I'm sure if they did have it it would be fantastic. Their pico is very watery and could use a bit of thickening but tastes ok. The kids absolutely love the rice here. The beans are good but a little bland. I had the Adobada taco which was absolutely out of this world. The red Chile spices were spot on. My lunch date had beef flautas which were delicious. I gave 4 stars simply because the green sauce is so amazing and you absolutely cannot find it anywhere else. We sat outside on the patio which was very pleasant. All the patrons at lunch were outside on the patio. The bathrooms are extremely clean although you do have to go outside the building around the back to use the restroom. That's fine because it's a lot better than having to walk through the kitchen. If you're ever in Fallbrook look this place up and try to have a meal here. Don't forget the green sauce and always ask for more!

    Updated review - just wanted to add a few more photos from my recent visit!…read more I seriously love this spot. Guadalajara never misses. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying - you can tell they put care into everything they serve. Portions are generous, and the prices are very affordable, especially for the quality you're getting. The service has always been friendly and quick, and the overall vibe is relaxed and welcoming. It's one of those places you can count on whether you're grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to enjoy a full meal. Definitely one of my go-to spots. Highly recommend!

This place has always been our go to Mexican restaurant when we come down here. We came on cinco de mayo which was busy and we had waited 20 minutes for a table which we expected. So we placed are order. Wife asked for the 2 taco special with no sour cream. I order the same thing with no cheese or sour cream. I did that cause I'm lactose intolerant. The waitress stated that they can't substitute? I'm not substituting anything. Just don't add it. The "manager" came over and said we can't substitute? I stated I'm not substituting anything, just don't want cheese or sour cream. He said since they're busy cause of cinco de mayo they can't do it which tells me they can't handle a large amount of customers and there food they make in the back there cooks are auto pilot and get devate from the normal operation. We have been here before and "NEVER" had a problem with the way we ordered but today was an issue which tells me things are difficult especially if busy. We will not be back cause it was just a simple request and they couldn't fulfill that. We went over to Rosa's and tortilla factory which is down the street and it was good and "much cheaper ". I will never recommend Guadalajara to anyone anymore cause they couldn't handle a simple request.
