The Selma tacos, rice and beans were pretty tasty but could have had a little more meat. The outside dining was pleasantly shaded and the service was great. Only reason for 4 stars is the tacos lacked on meat and were full of lettuce. read more

Rodolfo's - Selma tacos - Mexican Near Me - Selma, California

See all

Half of a dining experience is table service. We have been to Rodolfo's more than once, but one common factor is the lack of personal waitress service. The gal that serviced our table today seems to lack the number one trait found in basic protocol in waitress ethics... being kind and receptive to customer satisfaction. She has NO TIME for her patrons. After the food is served she quickly sets the plates down and you would be lucky to see her again during your time in the restaurant until she delivers the bill. A trait of arrogance is a common thread amongst there service staff. With today's competitive market, and diversity in restaurants, I would recommend a change of selection in selecting a Mexican Restaurant while dining in Selma. read more

I absolutely love this place. The food is made clean and the shredded beef is amazing. I love this restaurant.

Was working in Selma today and came across this place with a co-worker... we were welcomed in with friendly faces and prompt service. Being our first time we asked for recommendations - the house special was all that we needed and more. Perfect serving sizes, well balanced flavors and excellent service. I think we just found our new favorite spot in Selma. Thank you for an awesome lunch!! We will definitely be coming back! read more

We stopped off here after a day at Universal Studios. We were a little unsure about the appearance from outside the restaurant. The service was a little behind par, but the food was absolutely yummy and authentic. I ordered the chili Verde and the sauce and the meat we're going perfectly. My husband had a ground beef red enchilada and he said it was super good. This is a little hole in the wall for sure with great food. read more

Unbelievably good food and service. I felt like I was stepping into Mexico when I crossed the threshold. Has a genuine ambiance. Loved it!! Great food at reasonable prices. Very hard to beat. I'll be back for sure. read more

My waitress refused to give me Chips for my to go order. She told me that I already had chips at the table when I ate my dinner and if I want more she needs to charge me an extra $1.50 for chips and $1.50 for salsa. I explained that I was inquiring about my to-go order ? I ordered $12.95 dinner to go to drop off at my Daughter's house. when I check the order it didn't have salsa and chips. I asked if they usually give salsa and chips for To go orders? She said yes, but you already had chips and salsa with your dinner..... I asked for the manager and then the other waitress came over with a smirk on her face to say if I wanted more chips and salsa I needed to pay for it. I was also told to call back and ask for Mercedes if i didn't like the answer given. WOW! what customer service. Just an FYI my dinner and the To go order was separate checks. Seperate checks, seperate orders, but my Daughter doesn't get chips and salsa because I had some at the table. NEVER going back, what a rip off.. Not too mention they charged me .84 cent service charge to use my debit card. read more

Consistently gooooood food.Never disappoints.Rodolfos special is our go-to dish.It consists of green chicken enchilada and a Selma tacoYUM!!

Staff was cool. Food was not. Chips and salsa were not chips and salsa. The inside is super cute but food was just not it here.

Great food, extremely courteous staff, and very quick service. I recommend stopping in if you're in Selma.

Stopped here today to get lunch. It's been a while since we ate here. Have to say there just isn't enough staff here to accommodate the amount of customers that are here. We just sat ourselves. The poor guy to my right waited and waited for his check. Even asked someone to plz get it. He finally went up himself and paid for his meal. I would have just left. Screw it. I'm hoping the food is as good as it was last time. The poor kid that got our drinks is sweating pretty good from running around. I don't understand why these businesses don't hire adequate staff. Can u say minimum wage increases? Uh huh. That's the price u pay for that. But still if ur getn this much business. U need to be adequately staffed. Another lady was waiting quite a while at the register for a take out order. What patience. I would have left. Oh well. As I said. Hope the food is still good. read more

We ordered a 3 item combo and Rodolfo's charged us 4.75$ for substituting ground beef for cane asada in addition to 12.75$ - the cost of the meal. The waiter did not inform us what the additional cost would be and the quality of food has gone way down. Selma Tacos- not worth 17.50$!! Disappointed!! read more

The worst customer service I've ever experienced. I called in a reservation for a party of 22 and was told the banquet room would be available for us. When we got there, they would not honor the reservation. I had TWENTY guests with me to celebrate a birthday and they refused to accommodate us in the banquet room although it was available. They stated they needed a deposit days in advance, additional fees, and said they would have to use special plates in that room... WHAT?!?!? None of this was stated when I called in the reservation. In order to serve us, they insisted we break up our party and sit at separate tables in the main room. Typically restaurants will at least move some tables around to sit a large group, and they weren't even willing to do that. Out of principle, we didn't want to eat at a restaurant that would treat their customers like that. We ended up circling town trying to find someplace that would accommodate such a large group in short notice. Needless to say, we will not be going back. read more

The food at Rodolfos was amazing. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Definitely will be returning.

I am not from around here but wanted Mexican food for Mother's Day lunch. Came across this place I will say the patio set up was nice. Our waitress was a young girl with clear framed glasses had pig tails and she was HORRIBLE!!! With my meal it said it came with a salad I told her I wanted ranch she said I couldn't have the salad cause it's a lunch special I told her the menu does not say it she said I know but you can't have the salad, totally ruined my vibe. Next I told her for kids meal I wanted taco with fries no rice and beans what does she do tells me fries will be more which menu says a 1.00 for substitute and brings the plate w/beans and rice I told her I didn't want that again that's how it comes was her response I finally asked her if she was new she said no been here a while‍ she is horrible and lacks people skills and listening to the customer skills what if my kid would of had a food allergy? Was she again going to say that's how it comes? The chicken in the taco was pink and just a glob of chicken the only good thing I would give 5 stars would be chips and salsa and she didn't tell me a charge for that! 51 bucks waste on mother day lunch! Glad I don't leave around here I would tell people to stay away! read more

Food is over rated, it was cold in there so my hot plate got cold fast. My menu had salsa on it, chairs gad chips. Service was , let me say she brought my food to me. Skip it and go to Sal's read more

1/1/2022 my husband and Myself joined friends at this restaurant. We had a waitress and she was horrible. She literally stood at the end of the table in one place asking for our drink order. Mind you, we were a party of 9. So that was the start, then when she brought the drinks, she stood in the same place and began calling out what drinks she had. Rather than walking over to the person that said " I had an ice tea." She sat it on the table for that person to fend for themself. At the opposite end of where the person was sitting. She finally came back to take our order. I ordered a 3 item combo. I asked for no beans please, and also asked for no cheese in my enchilada. My friend was wanting to order something she had before there. But the waitress had no idea what she wanted and place the order for a tostada rather than the chicken salad in a tortilla shell. When the tostada was brought, my friend mentioned to her that it wasn't what she wanted to order. And began again to describe what she wanted. The waitress then told my friend that she was confused and maybe wanted the chicken in a conch , and the waitress told my friend would have to pay for both meals even though the friend never touched the tostada. The waitress then brought my plate and I explained that I asked for no beans. So she took my plate back to the kitchen and then brought another plate out, and as I cut into the enchilada it was full of cheese and I had ordered a shredded beef enchilada with no cheese inside. We also asked for more chips and salsa and the waitress told me that we would have to pay for them. So my husband told her, to give my friend the meal she wanted and he would pay for the tostado that no one was eating. Our drink orders were wrong as well I ordered a Diet Pepsi and she didn't even get that right. And then she brought the bill. It was 133.00 and some cents. Two of the people in our party were children and shared a meal. I looked over the bill and noticed she charged us for extra drinks, and when I asked her to re add up the bill, she didn't even know the prices of things she had charged us for. I asked her to tell me how much each item was and then she changed the prices from the first bill. It was a huge mess. But the straw that broke the camels back was when she told me, that if I were to come back she would refuse service to me and my party. I did ask for the manager, and she said that the manager wasn't there. So I asked for the number of the manager and name. And will be contacting the manager or owner soon. When my husband heard what she said to me about " don't come back!" " and if you do, I will refuse service to you. I never raised my voice I just simply explained that the bill was wrong and she was over charging us by over $20.00! My husband and I paid the entire bill for the party of 9 and we ended up leaving. Something definitely needs to be done. You can clearly tell the waitress has not been trained, and she doesn't value the customers that come in to the establishment she works in. We live in Fresno, and just so happened to be going to visit friends and place flowers at the cemetery and then have lunch together. The rating gets the poorest rating I can give. I would not recommend this establishment. The food order was wrong, cold, the drinks were wrong and we were over charge on the bill. She did give us a .45 cent discount, but that was only because she didn't know the actual price of the taco one of our party ordered and when I told her that she was honing us 2 different prices, she said " well I was giving you a discount!! We will not be eating there any time soon! read more

Love the green enchiladas! You can't let reviews decide for you. Go in and try it yourself. The food is amazing.

If you have a big party, DO NOT COME HERE! Our party was pretty big 20 people. They only had one waiter for us and he was all over the place and not organized at all. He kept forgetting who ordered what, when we asked for more napkins etc he kept telling us we had to wait until all the plates were out. I usually eat my food with loads of salsa and I could not even get that because our waiter was too busy running around like a chicken without a head. My boyfriend ordered enchiladas and it came with Guacamole and when we asked for the guacamole the waiter said that it did not come with it. Then to top it off our food was not ready all at once and some people had to wait more than 10 minutes for the food to come out while everyone else was eating. On top of that, the food was not that great; the beans were horrible! We also heard the workers arguing in the kitchen which is very unprofessional. You should always be prepared to serve a big party and have the right amount of staff. Overall this place was very unorganized and disappointing. I do not recommend this place! read more

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD NEAR THE RAILROAD TRACKS Absolutely delicious Mexican food; I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet. A basket of crispy chips sprinkled with paprika and cayenne arrived at the table. The salsa is the star here, fresh and perfectly seasoned. Selma Tacos I ordered Selma Tacos; the signature dish of the restaurant. Two crispy tacos arrived, filled with perfectly seasoned steak, guacamole, and cheese. I inhaled the first taco but made sure to take the time to savor the flavors of the second taco. After reading other reviews on Yelp, I must try the Green Enchiladas next time. An authentic Mexican restaurant in the small town of Selma, look for the big yellow sign next to the railroad tracks. read more

Our meals were excellent and the waiter was accommodating to my husband's diabetic diet by substituting Nopales for the rice and beans. We will come back! read more

Stuck in Selma for a minute and took a chance on this place. I got the chili verde nachos which was really good, and surprisingly came with that rare commodity in nacho-land: large chunks of meat!!! Service was great...the waitress was on top of things and our food came out quickly. The standard chips and salsa were also present, and the chips had some interesting spicy seasoning on em. A little far from my house, but next time I am cruising down 99 I think I will go back. You cant miss the giant yellow sign. read more

Yummiest vegetarian enchilada I've ever had! Full of peppers, mushrooms, olives, onions, and zucchini. Definitely worth a shot if you go; which you should! Nicely decorated place, lots of room, great and quick service, and super spicy salsa (just the way it should be). S'pretty comfortable and authentic, from the bird cages everywhere to the giant bull in the front. And really good food in excellent portions. My mother and I left this place really satisfied. read more

I absolutely love this place! I probably eat there several times a month. What I love about their food is that it's not greasy. They never make a big deal about making anything vegetarian either, and they will make anything without meat if you ask for it. My boyfriend is a vegetarian, and I usually opt to go veggie if we're there together. Most other places we've gone too make a big stink about "making something vegetarian" for us. It's reasonably priced, and it's a nice atmosphere. I'm not a huge fan of paying extra for chips and salsa, but, the chips are delicious, and their salsa isn't too hot or too bland -- just how I like it. Some of the waiters/waitresses are friendly, personable, and fantastic. A couple others are eh, ok, and one or two just plain suck. But, the food is good enough that I can just brush by that -- I'm still in charge of how much tip I leave. I've tried their tacos, the chimichangas (which are my favorite) their tostadas, and taquitos, and all of which have been very good. My parents love enchiladas, but prefer it without meat as well. After going to this place regularly, they actually put a "vegetarian enchilada" special on the menu for my family, which I thought was very sweet. My parents rave about it. I would pick this place over Sal's any day! read more

Right off the top,let me say, that Rodolfo's isn't accepting the restaurant.com certificates...which is an issue I am currently taking up with restaurant.com...don't be a sucker and buy a certificate and then feel like an A hole when you get there and see the sign about not accepting them. OK, now that I got that off my chest... I was pretty impressed by this place. Really suprised that I haven't heard of it before yesterday. So, the chips and salsa (if you want to call it that...I would say more to the Pico de Gallo effect) were good (though the tomatoes were pretty pekid...hell, we live in the Valley...find some nice ripe red ones!!!), but were $1.50 each if you wanted more than the paltry little basket they give you when seated. That kinda irked me...but anyways...the service was great. Our waitress was a doll and was very helpful. She didn't get our tacos right, but sure whipped some out of the kitchen in a hurry when we mentioned it to her (didn't check for the loogies, though...didn't want to know). I had one of their "famous" green chicken enchiladas, a chile relleno, and a taco (and I also have leftover lunch today, by the way). All pretty darn good. The rice and beans were solid too, which is always nice. I hate it when places slack on the side items. Husband had 2 cheese enchiladas and a taco. His enchiladas were good. Their menu is pretty extensive for such a little place, I thought. The restaurant itself is clean, well-kept, and decorated with lots of interesting little knick-knacks, doo-dads, tschotchkies, what-have-yous, antiquities and one big ass longhorn cow statue in the front (where can I get one of those?!?) They have an open lay-out inside and it doesn't feel crowded like some places do...ahem...Sal's...ahem. Oh, and they serve a frozen mug with each beer you order...a fresh mug with each beer your order...who does that? SWEET! Not so sweet....the DUI checkpoint on the incoming traffic that we passed on our way back to Hanford...uh...dang. I have no doubt that we will be back some day...but it's going to be super tough to pass Sal's to get there! read more

OMG!!! We need clarification.... It was $1.50 for more chips or more salsa, not both. We got charged $3.00 extra dollars for the SMALLEST basket of chips and salsa. I thought it was a mess up because I got to restaurnat first and then my boyfriend showed up a few minutes later. I thought the small basket was because I was at the table alone. NOPE standard issue. We are definately sticking with Sals!!! We have asked for more salsa but the basket of chips is huge and FREE. On the food.... My boyfriend is hard core about his shredded beef tacos. His favorite is still El Toro in Fresno. He said this were ok, a bit pricey for tacos ala carte. I had the "green" enchilada after reading reviews. Mine was not good. Chicken was dry and flavorless, sauce was only warm from when they melted the cheese under heat lamp. The rice and beans were good. I am picky about Iced Tea.... not worth drinking. It was out of a fountain machine, powdered mix, or someone needs to clean the container and make fresh tea... It was not right and bitter. read more

Rude staff and they also add unknown charges on check bar tab no sure if that was to sit inside.

Sadly disappointed today, been coming here for 15 years and decided to try a tamale. I specifically asked if they were made fresh and I was told yes. As soon as I saw it.. I knew I was served a frozen tamale covered in sauce and cheese. Considering my family has made fresh tamales my whole life, I thought it was insulting. If the waitress had said no fresh tamales today, I would have probably had a much better lunch. Of course, I will come back but today.. Disappointed. The waitress adjusted my bill but wasn't trying to replace my order either. Unfortunate. read more

I just had a total knee replacement 4 days ago and it has been a little rough, but good friends Marcia and Jennifer brought me some Azteca soup and a Selma taco, I can't tell you what a difference maker it was! Plus it is a cold, cloudy day!! Perfect! Warmed me up inside and made the pain go away!! Thank you Rodolfo's and Marcia and Jennifer! Sincerely, Janice Baker read more

The food is okay, but the atmosphere is wonderful. Espically, the young waitress with glasses, and small pony tail. She is wonderful, has a great smile and is ready to serve, her name is Aimee. I did notice that the other workers aren't as fast as her though, what a shame. I will be coming back just because of the wonderful service she gave me. She made my visit worthwhile. read more

Our family party of 4 and an infant decided to try Rodolfo's instead of our proven, dependable go to restaurant here in Selma. We realized pretty quickly that we made a mistake simply from the lack of a greeting and cold vibe from the staff, just a stare. That aside, the food was just OK, nothing special and nothing like the freshness of our regular place. The sauces tasted old and the lettuce garnishes were watery and wilted. Getting our water glasses refilled took requests and forget about getting your salsa or chips refilled. Maybe another try is in order but it would be an expensive 2nd chance. read more

Horrible service. Cook gets mad when he messes up and expects customers to just deal with it. Won't be back... read more

Another great Mexican food place in Selma. I love the chips and salsa and also the chicken mole enchiladas. I also love their tacos and their fajita burritos. Yes, you do get charged for another basket of chips and salsa but the food comes out so quick you don't need them. For sure one of my favorite spots when I go home. read more
