Good selection of beer. The staff/owners are very friendly. Its a small building across the street from the Pilot. Thanks for a delicious meal!

Pietsch Walter “Wally” Colorful hole in the wall, conveniently located close to 101. Large parking lot with handicap parking in front of the entrance or street parking. Very friendly and helpful staff, warmly greeted. Delicious, authentic food dishes from Hidalgo and Oaxaca. Extensive menu with vegetarian section. Very tasty, big portions, reasonably priced. We got take out (due to late arrival) and returned two days later for dinner. Yummy, highly recommended. Best Mexican food I recall. Apparently a family run business, lots of local patrons. Very busy in the evening, but order was served quickly. Must have restaurant stop when transiting or coming to Salinas!

Lilly Arce Found this gem of a restaurant on google. Located in old town Salinas, it’s friendly & inviting atmosphere. I ordered the eggs with ham steak & breakfast potatoes. DELISH!

Chris Ross Excellent carnitas tacos. Crispy and tender

Stephanie Wing We just happened upon this wonderful place after viewing the nearby Mission. Darling place inside and out. The menu offered a lot. We both got the chicken with rice and veggies, onion rings and the veggie plate. Chicken was very tender and came with teriyaki sauce. Yum. The rice was lovely and not el dente, which we both do not like. Veggies were fresh and the ranch was fabulous, just enough flavor. However, the KING of the meal, were the Onion Rings. WOWEEEEEEE I almost did not eat my meal, they were so good. Crispy and flavorful on the outside, and creamy onion on the inside. Perfect combo.

Christina Federighi Staff was excellent. The vibe was nice, an authentic family feel. The verde must’ve been a day old. But it was fine. Pretty salty. Over all my family had a really great time. Happy to see the mariachis.

Thomas Blackington Ate here while passing through Salinas. Food was excellent; everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful. Would definitely eat here again if I were in the area.
