    Chips and salsa
    Juli R.

    Been driving by this restaurant for three years and hemming and hawing about going. The reviews weren't terrific and with so many Mexican restaurant choices in this town, we just never made the decision to eat here until tonight. Walking in was a huge surprise-the place was definitely more upscale than expected. Very lovely decor and a nice sized bar. Hostess was lovely and sat us quickly. Unfortunately what followed was just mediocre service and average food. At first our server was prompt and attentive taking our order. We ordered a fajita burrito with carne asada and asada supreme nachos. The hubby didn't love the salsa (tasting like jarred salsa like so many before us have said) and asked for any other options. We settled on the tomatillo sauce from the kitchen. It was an improvement. The food was average at best and honestly it reminded me of the old Wendy's commercial- where's the beef? Neither the son nor my husband could locate more than a couple of diced pieces of steak in their items. The nachos were simply a huge plate of chips, some barely melted cheese , black olives , beans, sour cream and guacamole. Not a lot of taste nor coverage over those chips. Son ate one third of his burrito and didn't care for the taste of the sauce. Once the food had been delivered, our server was off taking care of others never to be seen again- we had to ask another server for our check.. I realize everyone's tastes are different and what one person may love another may hate- but for us and our hard earned money, we will be skipping a return visit

    My husband and I come here almost every weekend! Welcomed with chips and salsa instantly. The whole staff is always very nice and welcoming. The food comes out fast and hot. Nice Spanish music playing and lots of seating available. We will always come back here!!

    I was a passenger in a car that came to this restaurant. I was told that this place is really good and has great Mexican food. We had just left Wine country and was hungry. The hostess walking in was very friendly and nice. We were seated right away. Everything on the menu looked so good but my go to no matter which restaurant is always a chimichanga. The server, Derek was very polite and friendly. The chips and salsa were awesome. After demolishing two bowls of chips and salsa the food arrived and let me tell you, it definitely ranks in the top three that I've had in recent months. It was very good . I was full before I finished, but it was so good. I kept eating. Made it hard to get out of the booth. Little over eating humor there. This place was really good and yes, I would return. Thank you guys for a great lunch. You made a fan. Again thank you Derek for being an awesome server.

    Not good, not bad. Just okay. Would give 2.5 stars. First time and was bummed, it's close to my house and I love Mexican. The salsa wasn't very good. Mariachi Margarita was terrible and meat didn't have much flavor. It's a very pretty restaurant though. I love the decor and it was mellow no crowd at all. Service was not very good.

    This breaks my heart. What was once our absolute most favorite restaurant is now such a big disappointment, every visit for the past few visits. The blended coconut margaritas is what we come for and it's just not the same, the ones we ordered tasted like watered down tequila and nothing else. The food portions are substantially less while the prices continues to rise. We sat at the bar while Jesus ran around like a crazy person, trying his best to take orders, deliver food, make drinks and tend the bar at the same time. There were two hostesses on shift and one busboy, it was completely ridiculous and while we were only one of three parties at the bar, we did not receive the attentive service we have grown accustomed to. I can understand that on a Thursday night there shouldn't have to be a surplus of workers on a shift, but to expect one person to do it all is crazy. Sadly, I don't know if we can ever come back after so many letdowns recently

    Shrimp Tostada very good choice for Lunch.

    This restaurant always serves nice portions of food. The quality is great and they truly serve it fresh. Their staff makes you feel important as a customer and even find a few seconds to chat. During our visit the crowd was small with lite chatter.

    I ordered surf and turf and had two bites of steak and it taste really bad. Ambiance and service is good though but definitely not going back

    Last night we paid $40.00 for 2 average dinners. That is overpriced for simple Mexican food. I do not recommend this resturante.

    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.

Our server last night was very tentative to ours needs and assisted with suggestions. She had a nice accent and she probably could have got us to buy anything, to tell you the truth. The food was good. I liked the light, crispy, and flakiness of the taquitos. The oxtail was sweet, which I did not expect. The churros were brown on the outside and not cooked on the inside, which was disappointing to us. The Birria which was fun to build it, but was a little bland. But the plate was finished. We spent about $85 for these things and an iced tea. I feel like this place doesn't get as much movement as the other restaurants cause it's the furthest from the gaming area. But gets a lot of service when there are conventions or events because it's on that side of the resort. If you have a chance, try it out.
