It felt casual and authentic. Another huge plus, the prices were so reasonable, especially for Mammoth. Great food without the typical mountain-town prices.

If you're in…read moreMammoth and craving Mexican food, save yourself the disappointment and go to Roberto's instead. My friend and I ordered the Blanca Paloma because we wanted a mocktail. My boyfriend said it tasted like chlorinated pool water. Honestly, that felt generous. I took two sips and immediately understood why plants die when you overwater them. If someone told me this was recycled toilet water with a splash of citrus, I'd have no evidence to dispute it. The service was fast though, so points for that. The guacamole was this restaurant's saving grace. It was fresh, delicious, and briefly convinced me the rest of the meal might turn around. It did not. We ordered the Baja ceviche and I have questions. Specifically: why was it marinating in what tasted like an entire bottle of Clamato? The seafood never stood a chance. Every bite tasted like I accidentally drank the bottom of a Bloody Mary. I ordered the chicken taco plain and it still showed up with enough diced onion to ward off vampires for the next decade. The overall flavor profile felt very "Mexican food designed by committee." It wasn't terrible, but it definitely wasn't something I'd order again. My boyfriend ordered the carnitas and actually liked them, so credit where credit is due. The garlic shrimp was the clear winner of the table by a mile. Honestly, if you come here, order the garlic shrimp, order the guac, and call it a day. For the love of all things holy, stay away from the Blanca Paloma.

We ordered two carne asada tortas, one carne asada quesadilla, and a three-taco carne asada combo, and our total came to around $100. For that price, I expected much better quality.

Overall, the food was overpriced for the quality we received. There are much better places to eat in Mammoth.

Largest unsavory complaint is that I (and the rest of my family of 3) were incredibly sick within 30 minutes of eating here. We are San Diegan's so we have a strong Mexican food tolerance. We ate nowhere else this day so we are positive something was amiss with the food, or salsas. We ordered chicken Taquitos, Chicken quesadilla and the Chili Relleno and guacamole, and chips and salsa. NOTE: The only reason I ordered the relleno is because the "printed menu" says that it's stuffed with Manchego cheese, which is sheep's milk cheese. But it came out with cow's milk cheese. Heavily egg-battered so it was just bleh. Lastly, the food was way too expensive for the low quality.

We walked in at 7:30pm, over an hour before closing to place a take out order. There were many people sitting inside and eating or waiting for food. The staff at the register looked at us and said, "we're closed". We were surprised and asked if they were open until 9 as their open sign was lit up as well as their store hours on the door. She did not answer our questions, just shook her head at us and walked away into the kitchen. Very rude staff who can't even be bothered to answer a customer's question. Do not recommend. read more

Based on the previous high ratings, I had high expectations for this place, but it didn't live up to the hype. The food quality was poor, mostly undercooked, cold, and quite unappetizing. The ambiance added to the disappointment, as the area looked unclean, and the restroom was also quite unpleasant. On a positive note, the service was quick. read more
