    Quick and friendly! We love the tacos. They offer inside seating with a few tvs and a drive thru.

    As someone who loves Mexican/Central American food and has eaten in the mother lands, I have a fairly high bar for what I consider good. Spokane is kinda lacking in places that don't just cater to the lowest common gringo and hold back on the flavor. That is not the case here! Last time I was in I tried the Camerones a la Diabla (Shrimp of the Devil) and it had a great kick but didn't sacrifice flavor. So much forehead sweating goodness. Don't worry, if that heat is just too much, they have lots of tamer dishes that are still full of flavor. While it is a go up to the counter and order kind of place, it doesn't feel that way. Everyone is very friendly and upbeat. It honestly feels like you are visiting family more than going to a restaurant. Inside is so colorful and fun! In the era of big restaurant chains going with the corporate boring you could be anywhere look, I love the street fiesta feel of the interior. This place is a gem for Spokane. The fact they were so busy on a Tuesday night tells you how good they are. If you like Mexican food even a little, you MUST try this place.

    First time here, kids and I loved it! I've got a picky six year old and she didn't have an issue with any of the food, in fact she wants to have the tamales next time because they were better than the chicken nuggets she loved! I don't eat at places I can outcook... I'll be coming back and kiddos are letting me know they will be really sad if I don't bring them with me. Will return and it's a new favorite!

    Authentic Mexican food that IS DELICIOUS. The quality of the food is top notch, lots of vibrant flavors! Also just a very cool vibe. We got the quesabirria tacos (consome ofc) and some regular tacos. Honourable mention to the horchata which was not picture

    This is one of our fave Mexican places in the Spokane area. Today was rainy and blustery on our usual weekend shopping trip, so I just felt like a nice warming bowl of soup, and Pozole is always a winner in my book. A very friendly and hard working family are the owners, and we always see them when we visit. I also think they have one of the better salsa bars available in town. It's location is convenient, right on Division.

    Taco combo. Beef, pork, and chorizo.

    Everything was delicious! Got the taco combo with beef, pork, and chorizo for $12. Sauces are great too! Nice and spicy! Service was quick. Busy on a Sunday afternoon but I got my food in 5 minutes or less!

    $14.72 for a monster smothered burrito and its delicious.

    $14.72 for a monster-smothered burrito and it's delicious. Highly recommend patronizing this establishment. Macho Burrito.

Honestly, I was a little surprised to have our main hostess be American AF, but she was lovely. For a moment, my companion was balking at the prices because she has a small appetite, but she literally walked out with enough for three more meals and enjoyed every single one. I found their pico de gallo a little too sweet for my taste, yet, the guac was nice. I might hesitate to order to go/for delivery, though I'm sure I'll stop by again.

The lights above the booths were made with sombreros- charming. I had a basic Margarita and it was nicely balanced. The salsa with the chips was very hot so we asked if they had a milder salsa and they did. We split a #5 Combo that had a shredded beef burrito and a chili relleno. It was served with refried beans (delicious) and rice (better than most). A couple of notes... sour cream ($2.95 extra) and guacamole ($3.95) were add ons if you wanted them. They also charge $2.00 per basket of chips after the first. We didn't need another, just noticed it at the bottom of the menu. Street tacos were good, served in double corn tortillas. The shredded beef was very moist and good. The chili relleno was really good, very cheesy. Our server was prompt and friendly, checking back to see how things were. The menu prices were above what I expected but the food was very good.

I really loved the decorations inside- colorful, festive, and some really neat Dia De Los Muertos styled paintings. Our server was great and went through the menu...lots of selections. I wasn't super hungry so I got 3 street tacos (1 al pastor, 1 carnitas and 1 tinga). My son got an al pastor quesadilla and my wife got pollo tacos. The chips and salsa were good and held us over until the food came. When the food came they also brought out 3 more salsas in squeeze bottles and all of these were great too. All 3 of my street were very flavorful and all incredibly tender. Sometimes chicken and carnitas can be pretty bland but not here...these were exactly what I was looking for. My family loved their food as well and we left wishing we had a Los Habaneros Taqueria back in AZ! When I was paying for our meal at the cashier several people were picking up to go meals and heard we were from AZ visiting and both parties said we found the best spot in Spokane for Mexican food. I don't doubt them for a minute...this was dynamite.

The ambience is perfect.. festive but sleek with an upscale nod! We started the evening with some margaritas all around... spicy, grilled pineapple and regular all of which were delicious! The chips were crisp and the salsa incredible with the perfect spice and chunkiness. They also have a guacamole that is fresh and bursting with flavor... incredible! Since moving here 7 years ago from the pacific southwest I am always on the hunt for a fish taco that will rival what we believe are the best fish tacos ever and I think I have finally found that here at Mole. It was a great mix of cabbage, pico de gallo, pickled onions and grilled pineapple salsa. I am in heaven! Also ordered at our table were the fajitas which were delicious, flavorful and more than enough food to be shared by 2. It was a great evening in every way and we will absolutely be back for more fish tacos!

Totally understandable, but our second server couldn't have cared less about our dining experience. We had to ask for a salsa and chip refill six times before it arrived at our table- I wish I was kidding. Our dirty appetizer dishes, plates and drink glasses sat on the table our entire meal, and no one came back to check on us. We also had to flag down our server when we wanted to order our dinner, more drinks, and ask for more water. Most disappointing of all, our graduation party, that no one asked us about, had 8 people meaning this awful service got tipped 18%. I completely understand having automatic gratuity on large parties, but the service needs to be worth that 18% if you're going to charge it. This was our first and last time at Molé. The food and drinks truly were good, but the bad service outweighs the good eats.

The food was amazing, the people were great, and I was excited to come back. Yesterday, my girlfriend and I planned a date night and decided to order from here again. Since we have kids, we did pickup. We drove about 25 minutes, then waited another 25 minutes because the line was packed which I didn't mind because the food was that good the first time. But this time? Completely different experience. I ordered a bean burrito with cheese... and it had no beans. Just rice and cheese in a tortilla. Then the nachos, honestly, for $27, this was unacceptable. Dry chips, unmelted cheese, some tomatoes thrown on top, no meat, no beans just thrown together with no care. It looked and tasted like an afterthought. What made it worse is the lack of accountability. I tried calling multiple times last night and again this morning no answer. Calls just ring or don't go through. I even tried calling from different numbers. Nothing. At this point, it's not even about the money it's the principle. Mistakes happen, but not being able to reach anyone or have them make it right is frustrating. I really wanted to keep supporting this place because the first experience was great, but this completely missed the mark.
