We also got the combo plate with enchilada, taco and chili relleno. Absolutely fantastic. It hard to find a good chilli relleno. We will absolutely come back to this place when we're in town.

There was a singer on the patio entertaining the patrons with classic latin music. Now for the food..still amazing! The Chiles Gueritos is their succulent signature item. Shrimp stuffed in a large Chile pepper, with mayonnaise, and soy sauce. Truly unique and excellent. I also ordered two fish tacos al la carte. YUM. For drink, I enjoyed a Pacifico beer. In my opinion, this eatery is an Indio institution. The best Mexican restaurant in the east valley. Our server was friendly and prompt. Our lunch was stupendous. I cannot wait to return.

I want to return but distance is a killer, because Salsas (another FAV) is much closer, it's on my FAV list, and with the MUCH LARGER SET OF MENU OPTIONS, I'm sure I will return.

SHORT ANSWER: Just an update, but Casa Mendoza seems to be just getting better. Some new staff but…read morefood quality and people here are very welcoming. LOCATION: In Old Town La Quinta, OTLQ easy to find, tons of parking but at times it gets busy so you may have to walk a bit. FACILITY: very traditional inside and out, clean, and lots of space between tables. MENU: rather massive, we usually order the same things so all the other options makes my head hurt so we just go with what we know. FOOD PREP: excellent, always looks the same which is a good things. FOOD QUALITY: some of the best in the valley. LIBATIONS: lots of choices and not too expensive, wish they had a locals city of LQ discount like some of the other options in OTLQ.. WAITSTAFF: very nice, everyone. OVERALL VALUE: if you order the right things, it is a great value but you can go nuts and spend a lot, tourist dollars spend well, upselling happens for those who want it and deserve it! TIP: Sitting outside is great most all year, we don't go out when it is crazy hot, but have dined outside in 100+ temps, we prefer the front outdoor space.
