I'm leaving a review mainly to upload recent menu pics from May 2026. I had good food from here. Ordered to go. Very friendly service and clean and cute inside. I hate rice in my burritos and chimichangas, and I know it's ridiculous and petty. I asked for rice on the side of a chimichanga, only when I arrived I was told that wasn't an option. Ok, no big deal. The chimichanga I got was truly beautiful, tasty meat inside. My partner's chicken burrito was good, but assembled horribly. Lost a star for the rice, the burrito assembly, as well as because I really didn't care for the sauce, I was hoping for chunkier salsa, and no chips and salsa in the bag and I really believe chips and salsa can make or break a mex restaurant, I would pay and request for chips and salsa if I knew they didn't come with meal. read more

Excelencia! Service is very welcoming! I came in first thing on this rainy morning to grub on Menudo and watch the stormy lake. The Atmosphere is warm, the Menudo is flavorful and tripe is a great texture, there's no hominy in it which is my favorite part but it's very well made. I've tried the Birria Tacos a time ago and those were everything I hoped for! When I get them again I'll update the review. read more

The service was great very nice staff. The food was amazing all homemade. With large portions. Would definitely go again.

Ali's Kitchen is a gem in Lakeport. Popped in here and was really looking for authentic Mexican food. I found it here in Lake county. Situated across from the park, Ali's appears to be a local favorite. The restaurant's interior was cute. Colorful decor makes you feel you're in Mexico. The family that runs it were really respectful and efficient. Since it was taco Tuesday, I had to have their taco plate. Was glad to hear they had lengua on the menu that day. And boy oh boy, I was glad to have ordered that. They served it with blistered jalapeño and sautéed onions, topped with onions and cilantro. The lengua was tender and was a great bite. read more

The food is excellent! But WHY do they never give you salsa? We specifically ask every time we get delivery, and it's never included! It's so disappointing, the salsa is one of the best part of Mexican food. So frustrating read more

The service is great. The food is very good. They are open 7 days a week! I usually order the chile relleno plate and it is generously portioned. The chile relleno burrito is also a favorite. read more

The food here is always really good! They also have a wonderful wine margarita which pairs well with any meal. I've had their quesadilla, taco salad and ceviche and all delicious. If the weather is nice you should sit on the rooftop deck. Right near the lake, super nice! read more

Ali’s kitchen - Birria Burrito with Red sauce ! - Mexican Near Me - Lakeport, California

Went here as my friends car was charging at the electric station. I would give the food a 3 1/2 stars instead of a four or three to be honest. the burrito was good. The meat wasn't super flavorful, and neither were the other ingredients however I enjoyed the burrito. Wait a little longer than I expected, but the staff was friendly. The restaurant itself was cute and there was plenty of seating and it's right next to a beautiful lake, they also had a rooftop as well. I will also say I was watching other peoples food come out and the Menudo looked good as well as the margaritas , wish I could've tried something else on the menu - especially the birria. read more

Ali’s kitchen - Carne asada burrito supreme no sour cream - Mexican Near Me - Lakeport, California

Ali's Kitchen - Lakeport, CA I had the Camarón al Diablo and wow--absolutely incredible. The portion was huge (I couldn't even finish it), and the sauce was next-level. Rich, flavorful, and perfectly spicy. Their bean dip is also worth mentioning--authentic and probably some of the best I've ever had. Cynthia had the Carne Asada and was seriously impressed. She said it reminded her of the quality and flavor you'd find in San Diego--so that's saying a lot. This might just be the best Mexican food in Northern California. We'll definitely be back. read more

Delivery perfect! Hot flavorful food and accurate order for a large group with generous portions and plenty to share!

Very small seating area but welcoming. The server was sure to get our order in before a large party which was nice. The food was good. The beans were lacking seasoning but we appreciate that they seemed house made. My enchiladas were not lacking in meat and the salsa given to add spice was delicious. Overall we would go back but we would bring cash because there is a 3.5% service fee for using a card. Also, they charge for chips and salsa FYI. read more

Ordered through door dash , 3 burritos and 3 tacos to a total of 60$ plus all the door dash charge and tip - 75$ order. On the order , they don't have an option of adding extra meat (since I ordered before and they didn't put enough meat) I added in the special request to add extra meat in the burritos. The burritos have more rice and beans than anything else, you can't taste the meat it's not normal for them to be so stingy. it was truly a disappointment and a waste of money again. Why be so cheap and stingy with meat? It's not like it's cheap. Not getting food from here ever again read more

Carne asada plate! Omg. Everything was delish. The bean chorizo dip! The jamaica !! The service ! Ambiance was excellent. Great music. And not too loud read more

The rooftop deck is a little gem with a beautiful view of the park and lake. The server accommodated my desire to have a keto friendly meal and served me a taco salad without rice beans or tostada shell. The guacamole was the best part of the meal. read more

Food is good. The service is good. The ambience is good. The prices are high. The staff is good and attentive. Clearly, the owners have passion. I've seen this location. Be many restaurants and this one will not only survive but thrive. I've had dates here. It's right across from library Park and a great location for the Friday night concert in the park series in the summer. read more

I've eaten there 3 times and the first two times were okay but this third time was not so great the pastor burrito gave me food poisoning I will not be eating there again read more

So I ordered the carnitas plate togo and I was very disappointed! The beans were so watered down they didn't taste like beans, half of the meat was literal strips of pure fat and they forgot my tortillas! $18.50 for basically some small side dishes.. I will not be ordering again with food of this quality and prices this high for almost no food. read more

Food was authentic Mexican cuisine. Service was great. Reasonably priced. 10/10 would recommend.

Was recommended by a friend about Ali's and finally able to visit. Did not disappoint. I ordered Gorditas ( in carne, el pastor, and chorizo ) all three have great flavors and texture. Will be back again to try different items on their menu! read more

Great food and service. The beef fajitas were so good and tender. The freshly made corn tortillas and salsas were splendid! We highly recommend it! read more

I would start by saying the location is great, across from the lake, the decoration very vibrant and fun. We came on the day when they had clam chowder on a sourdough bowl, and it was very, tasty and delicious, plenty of clams and veggies, they serve extra clam chow the side. We also had the Louisiana style shrimps and sausage. This was also delicious. We saw the regular menu, and everything looked savory. The service was very attentive and friendly, and the most important fact was that the prices were reasonable, I would definitely would suggest everyone try this colorful place. read more

Stopped by there for lunch after walking around the Lakeport Christmas Faire today. A cold day outside, but was instantly warmed by the cozy atmosphere inside Ali's. We were seated right away and had our orders taken quickly. Service is on pointe, staff is super friendly. We ordered the enchilada plates (chicken for me, pork for the hubby). We cleaned our plates. It was super yummy and not too spicy which is good news for us. We definitely recommend Ali's and will return when we are in the area. read more

Good service with out a doubt! Place is small, they do have table up on the roof top but we stayed at the front tables for the "ac"... not a good idea, we kept getting the smoke/smell from the grill and soon after we were regretting it. Food came, it was good. The chicken in the taquitos could have used some seasoning, but for the kiddos were good enough. Birria tacos were ok and the omelette was definitely good, although a bit heavy! Maybe with egg whites only next time. read more

The servers were very attentive and helpful! The restaurant was too cute, with rooftop seating. My quesadilla was dry and I would not order it again. read more

My husband and I had a wonderful lunch! We love mexican restaurants and find the offerings in Lake County lacking due to other places having very few open hours. What a joy to find a place like Ali's! My chicken enchiladas were delish and fresh, and my husband had ceviche, which he described as one of the best ceviche he has ever had, and he has had a lot because it is his favorite! He especially loved the addition of mango to the dish! read more

Honestly best Mexican we've had in a while and we live in Oakland so that's saying a lot. Great traditional and authentic flavors. Loved the birria. Service was super friendly and homey. We wish it were closer to our home. read more

Our favorite place to go for Mexican food! The food is authentic and is made with fresh ingredients, the atmosphere is casual and comfortable. The service is outstanding! View of Clearlake if you eat upstairs on the outside deck. Dog friendly! Great prices! read more
