My wife had the chicken soup and thought it was fantastic. She thought it was funny to have the whole chicken leg in the bowl. I had the chili Colorado and the meat was fantastic. Huge chunks and lots of it. Really good food. I've had the chorizo Con Huevos in the morning also excellent. Service is fabulous. read more

I had a really disappointing experience at Saritas. The waitress was very rude and unwelcoming, which immediately made the atmosphere uncomfortable. What bothered me even more was that they wouldn't allow me to use the restroom unless I was already a customer -- even though I was planning to eat there. That just felt unnecessary and honestly a bit tacky. Good service goes a long way, and unfortunately, this place didn't deliver. I'm a server and I would never treat my customers like that and I'm a good tipper but because of her I rather to take my food home cuz I could eat there no more, my mom didn't even order nothing because she couldn't eat there as well. She said her name was Alisson, food is good but I'll never come back again. read more

3.5 stars. CHEAP! The Carne Asada burrito was American style, but well made and tasty enough. Worth exploring further.

Just a few words about a great restaurant. The location is perfect for low key dinning, its not all congested from a big city area, clean and super friendly staff. The food is so good with an authentic Mexican flavors. I've gone here a few times and never been disappointed. Highly recommend this place to others. Thank you to the staff and owners as we had a great dinner experience. read more

Great food. The service was great too, can't complain about it. I did find the drive thru a little odd and weird but overall everything was great. Will definitely return if the chance is given. read more

I was very disappointed going to this restaurant after reading such great reviews. Ordered Menudo which was a pretty good size bowl, but the Menudo absolutely had no flavor. Not even a small hint of Menudo spices. Which is so disappointing because that is one thing we look for when going to a Mexican restaurant restaurant. My daughter ordered Pancakes and Sausage and Husband Scrambled eggs and Sausage. The Pancakes were McDonald's type and were served on a small plate. Same with my husbands scrambled eggs, hash browns and bacon, served on a small plate and did not receive his bacon. The only reason I'm giving this review one point because the waitress was friendly. Probably won't return on our next trip. read more

Sarita's Mexican Restaurant - Tasteless Menudo. - Mexican Near Me - Marina, California

Spent the weekend in Monterey so first night we decided to have dinner here since it was down the street from the hotel. I had eaten Mexican breakfast here over 10 years ago so I took a chance. Ordered the chile verde which had no flavor and meat a little tough, ended up getting an upset stomach. Wife ordered the shrimp fajitas which didn't have much seasoning. We ordered the bean burritos for our two nieces and waitress brought chicken strips and fries stating she messed up. We told her no thank you but we would like the bean burritos. It took another 15 minutes and I was wandering how long does it take to make two bean burritos. We paid, I left a tip but we will never come back to this location. Waitress was kind but could use some training on paying attention to detail. Bad Chicano style cooking, but definitely not authentic Mexican food. read more

Came in for dinner we're only the second customers here. Service was slow, it took awhile to get our drinks and then awhile to get our food. My friend got the Al Pastor big burrito and it was excellent, the Al Pastor was very flavorful. I got the Tostada dinner made with Chili Verde, it was very tender. A good Tostada and the rice and beans were good too. Their salsa isn't very hot but we still enjoyed it anyway. read more

Love Sarita's!! Haven't been in a long time. We stopped in today for a late lunch. I had a cheese enchilada, tamale, rice and beans. It was BOMB. He had chicken enchiladas rice and beans, cleaned his plate. Need I say more? The tamale came with sauce which I love, the enchilada had onions, which is mandatory for me. The rice was light and fluffy. Service was quick and friendly. We both had iced tea, very good. Ambiance is clean and inviting. We will be back! read more

Small little Mexican joint in downtown Marina. We ordered the bacon burrito cut in half and let me tell you, it was SLAMMIN! One of the best burritos I've had in a long long time. Everything about the burrito was amazing, only piece of feedback I had is that the tortilla was a bit salty. Really a great place to have lunch in Marina and the service was super nice and friendly! read more

It has been a decade of patronization and the results have remained the same. People come, people go. It's good, it's bad. It doesn't matter which of the three you visited (I've repeatedly tried all three). The experience always remained the same - gentle, kind, sweet, and a mix of everything. No frills, no nonsense, and nothing spectacular. It doesn't matter. It shouldn't at this point as it always boils down to the main stay: the food and how the food speaks to you. And that's the thing: consistency doesn't really exist. I finally wanted to write a review of a mainstay Mexican spot so I ordered the same item through DoorDash, pickup, and even dine-in to see if it was the same several times. I made friends order it for me. I ordered it myself and all I can say is: Yes, they are okay. They always will. But that spectacular that I had hoped for...for a decade, just won't happen. They are just okay. Just pray you come in when they are ready on par and okay because right then, and only then, it's only when they are pretty amazing. read more

I mainly go here for a menudo or any Caldos. They are very tasty! And we enjoy coming on Sunday's to enjoy the menudo. The service is great the ladies are always nice and welcoming. The spot is small but it doesn't get so busy. They do have a drive through/ pick up section . They also have a location in seaside as well. Parking, They have lots of parking space (Menudo is serve only on sundays) read more

Super authentic Mexican food! We went for breakfast and were served big portions we couldn't even finish the whole plate it was so delicious though! My husband got pancakes breakfast that came with papas and sausage and eggs for 9.99 can't beat that! I got the chorizo and eggs and rice and beans plate with tortillas! They made Homemade flour tortillas and also amazing table salsa to go with the chips! The service was very polite and the food came out ready very fast! The vibe is very welcoming and like you're going to eat at your grandmas or favorite Tias house! We will definitely be back! read more

Sarita's Mexican Restaurant - Chorizo con Huevos - Mexican Near Me - Marina, California

First time at Saritas and tried the menudo and it was delicious! Good authentic food with great service from Rosie!

Had delicious lunch there today with a friend. We are women "of a certain age" therefore we are lighter eaters. We split the Chili Relleno plate as it comes with 2 rellenos, really yummy beans, rice, green salad and more tortillas. Our cordial server didn't mind and brought an extra plate. Rellenos were tender, not oily, with a tide of melting white cheese inside, and of a good size. Fun and friendly casual lunch. Recommended. read more

Good sized burrito! It looked so good however, I would rate it a 3/10 it was not worth $13 and it did not taste good. Not sure if the contents had been left out for a while or something but it sent us straight to the bathroom. The woman who attended us through the drive through was very sweet and friendly. read more

When you pay over $30 for two burritos, have to wait 20 minutes in the drive thru, and then get told if you don't like it you can go to the fast food down the street- the food better be worth it because the service was not up to par. When I went to pick up my shrimp burrito, my fingers hit the grease you can see in the pictures. It took two napkins to de-grease my burrito so that I could eat it. As you can see the shrimp weren't even deep fried. Now I remember why I don't eat at this restaurant and had only gone there because of the drive thru in the first place. read more

Very disappointing. Order Any 3 for 14.99 - seemed safe in choice. Asada burrito, pork tamale, and an enchilada. Burrito was SO plain not even salt on the meat. No cheese, sauce, nothing. Instead of wrapping the tamale in foil, they drenched it in red sauce as if i had two enchiladas - if i would have known any of this definitely would not have ordered from here. read more

Sarita's is doing us all a solid for their large portions and unbeatable prices. For about $11/$12, I got a massive burrito with chips and delicious homemade salsa. I can definitely taste the authenticity and sense it with the decor. This is establishment is run by super friendly ladies. Sarita's also has a drive-thru that is occasionally used by people rolling through on the side. read more

MENU AND FOOD: They offer a variety of Mexican favorites including soups! SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE: Service is quick and efficient. Surprisingly, they have a drive through, which I utilized and did not get a chance to peak inside. PARKING: Located at the edge of a shopping plaza, they have plenty of parking. IMPRESSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Feeling a bit under the weather, I chose them particularly because they had pollo de caldo on their menu. However, their broth lacked depth and true flavor. The vegetables in their soup also had the texture of being previously frozen or partially cooked. I've also had their flauta plate along with a side of chips and salsa in the past, which were good, but nothing special. read more

Friendly and quick service. It seemed like a small family restaurant. I ordered the chorizo omelette and enjoyed it! Food was good and filling. read more

Rude service and became when using card they charge a good percentage when using card and also when ordering to go they charge for containers! And they are the only restraunt I know of that charges restraunts tax on top of tax! Make sure to get your ticket before paying! That's why they never hand u your ticket to pay untill u walk up and than all then hidden fees get applied! read more

Probably the worse tostada salad I have ever eaten or seen for that matter. The beans were slimy and there was like a creamy mixture with the chicken. It was just plane gross. Lettace was super old. Oh and the chips were stale big time. read more

Marina has great Mexican food. We chose Sarita's this time. It didn't disappoint. Everything was fresh and plentiful. The service was good. We got our food quickly. We couldn't finish our meal. We enjoyed it the next day, too. read more

By far the worst place I've ever been too. Came on a Saturday morning to get a breakfast burrito with rice beans, potatoes and bacon and I paid $15 for a super small burrito that I had no sauce no flavor and no taste to it at all. And as I walk in not to mention, there is not a single person inside the restaurant due to probably the outrageous prices they have. I would highly recommend not coming to this restaurant if you are within the area.. read more

The food is good . Very very slow and short-staffed. Will not return. They need more than one waitress doing everything..I wanted to help her. Very poor management. read more

Let's start with our stale chips with no salt then move on to our very salty shredded beef tostada which was not very good. I ordered taquitos which came with less than a tea spoon of guacamole and sour cream. Will not be returning to this disappointing restaurant. read more

This has been our favorite Mexican restaurant for over 25 years. They make the best ever salsa, we always take some home. The service is always fast & the staff very attentive.

Both we excellent. read more

Stopped at this place despite reviews, it was delicious and happy we did! Menudo was absolutely delicious!! I'm from a small town about 3 hours south and the menudo was def comparable! It's served everyday! And our waitress was absolutely working her hardest! She was on the go and they were busy, happy to have stopped and can't wait to come again read more

I love the food here. From enchiladas to tacos to burritos. The food does not taste rushed. It has a homemade vibe to it. Don't let the drive-through fool you this is not fast food! read more

Normally this is our go to Mexican spot Today was the worst experience I've ever had at Saritas We sat outside cuz of Covid The orders took longer than ever, no customers visible but us. Then the bees came & were buzzing around us My friends daughter is allergic to them My friends plate was overcome by bees & my soda was too We told our waiter Maria. Nothing but we haven't had trouble with bees Nothing off our bill. No offer to replace food or drinks. Sad very sad. Not a good thing. Lost regular customers. Disappointed in their lack of professionalism & making it right. Annoyed. read more

Service is friendly and food comes out quickly! One of the solid Mexican restaurants in Marina.

My favorite place to est in Marina. Fabulous Mexican food at such a great price Hot corn chips with salsa served immediately when you sit down. Be sure to ask for the green salsa. It is extra special. Everything on the menu is incredible. From delicious machaca with eggs to Chile relleno. My favorite is the shredded beef enchilada with a cheese enchilada. With rice and beans it makes for a great meal, topped off with delicious flan. There are so many choices on the menu. You will truly enjoy this p lo ace. read more
