    This is the first bar to the right when you walk in. Absolutely gorgeous place! Welcoming staff. Great food

    It's beautiful and welcoming once you walk in. Great staff and food was amazing. It wasn't too expensive. They also have alcohol served in cute cups and karaoke.

    Came in on a early afternoon Tuesday to try something new and glad we did. Met our bartender Jonathan and host and he treated us like family. They only been open since mother day but the food and drink were amazing and we watched the morning fifa game between Norway and Ivory Coast. I had the fajitas with shrimp/steak chicken and my wife ordered a custom BLT with no bacon due to being a vegan. Great experience all around

    So i came for a sip and paint. It happened to be my birthday. They were fast to check us in and seat us. It was really well set up. The entire time we had drinks and I got a complimentary cheese cake. The drinks were delicious and super fun. I had a coconut rum drink. It came in a cute mermaid cup. They are super attentive and quick with their food service.

    The space is really pretty but the staff is short and the food wasn't my kind of food. It looked pretty online and had okay reviews so I thought I'd give it a try. I would try again to see if it was just the food but i wouldn't recommend

    I had high hopes since I live in the area but was disappointed in the food. It's a new restaurant so hopefully it will improve. Nice ambiance, great service. Cloth covered seats were very comfortable. Thoughts as I wrote them down: Menu is upscale with sushi. Doesn't have most Mexican favorites. Didn't have the Mexican beer I like. Was told a delivery wasn't made. Salsas are not spicy but have good flavor. Homemade chips. Rice and beans were good. Pricy for the portion size. My complaints with the food is that they put a white cream sauce on top of Mole and Chili Verde sauces. Crumbled cheese is acceptable, sauce on top of other sauce is ridiculous and ruined the meal for me. Both the Mole and Chili Verde sauces were weak, almost tasteless and very little was served on the plate. The sauces were mostly dried out on the plate as if the plate was thrown in the microwave. The avocado they served was unripe and hard. I may give them another chance in a few months if they last that long. It's a tough sell in this area and at the prices they charge.

    Brought my Mom here for Brunch during the week and we weren't disappointed. We had great service and great food! The restaurant inside is beautiful with all the murals. 10/10 would come again.

    Steak fajitas

    The food was amazing and the service was great. Had a wonderful experience dining here! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish we ordered was delicious.

    Chilaquiles Rojos

    Good service, Nice music, Great food. So much flavor. I got the chilaquiles and Tres Leches French toast. So bomb. I would recommend

Their portions are big and very satisfying. We always get the same thing because we love it. Asada tacos, shrimps tacos, quesadillas, and vegan torta. The tacos like I mention before asada meat it's very tender and very tasty, so flavorful. The shrimp tacos come in flour tortilla and they have Mexican rice and cheese. My husband live them. Their asada tacos are with corn tortilla and some beans. Then you add your choice of salsa. I get the torta which they add the refried beans, avocado, and onion and fresh tomato. It is very good. They have Mexican bottled drinks and fountain drinks. Also they have horchata and Jamaica aguas frescas. They salsas are good too. They have red spicy, red mild, green mild and pico de gallo. They have 4 locations now. This place is very popular. Highly recommend.

As we were finishing our food they checked in on us to make sure everything was to our liking. There was no bakery aspect but they 100% delivered on fast, fresh and delicious food. Would absolutely visit again to get to try more of their menu! Gracias!

    I don't think I've ever felt betrayed by Yelp reviews...until now…read more During a recent road trip we stopped here to picked up some lunch/dinner because tacos are quick and easy and their Yelp rating is high. Location/services: Upon entering the building I immediately noticed the heat. It was a hot 98 degree day and the restaurant felt like an oven and was maybe 3-5 degree cooler than it was outside. I then quickly noticed this was a very simple operation (almost like a food truck), and not much to the menu, but there were folks sitting and eating and a few others waiting to order, so I assumed the food must be great. We ordered 4 meals (tacos with rice/beans) which was meant to be eaten there but after waiting in line and feeling like we were in a hot box, we decided to make it to go. We sat and waited for our food (about 20 mins), we chatted and observed our surroundings and it became very apparent the restaurant was not maintained with basic cleaning because it was very grimy and just plain dirty. I then used the restroom and it was absolutely disgusting. Our ordered was called and the staff was very nice. The food: As I mentioned, we got 4 orders of tacos (all carne asada) with rice/beans, and we asked for salsa and limes. We got grilled jalapenos, lemons and one sandwhich baggy filled with red salsa. Not a big deal. The meat was fine but the tortillas were inedible. They were tough, flavorless, and greasy. The bean and rice were ok. We ate enough to curb our hunger but none of us finish our food. Upon my best judgement, I had convinced myself that the food was gonna be great because their Yelp rating told me so. I was so wrong! One last note, there was nothing here that resembled a bakery/panaderia. So if you think you could also grab a treat here, you are wrong.

We got 2 of their daily specials, the chorizo bean dip and the bean tostada. We also got a shrimp taco and carnitas quesadilla. Everything was fresh and delicious including the salsas. Today we saw a post for an extra special, 16 ounce pozole verde for $5. I know it's 100°, but couldn't pass trying it. We also got a chile verde burrito. Both were very good and the pozole was an unbelievable deal. And yes, it came with all the fixings for that price. We talked to one of the owners both times. He was very friendly and recognized us immediately when we walked in today. It's a small business I'd recommend giving a try.

Not terrible but not the best I've had…read more The service is always on point and it's so easy to just come in eat and leave- it's speedy and never packed the times I have gone. The Chips are Casera style so very thick and crunchy. They accompany them with a small bowl of beans which is a nice touch. Their table salsa is mild so I can stomach it. I've tried the pollo ala plancha (grilled chicken plate) fajitas, sopes and Camerones al mojo de ajo ( garlic shrimp). The best for me was the asada sope. The rest were on the bland side. Beans and rice are okay. I think they just need to do better when seasoning and flavoring their dishes.

What could have been a disappointing surprise turned into one of the best local dining experiences we've had in a long time. We had the pleasure of meeting Miguel himself, and his hospitality immediately stood out. He took the time to introduce us to several items on the menu and encouraged us to try a little bit of everything. I'm glad he did. The red beans and rice were absolutely phenomenal, and every single thing we tasted was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with pride. You can tell Miguel genuinely cares about both the food and the people he serves. What impressed me most wasn't just the food--it was the atmosphere. Miguel has a gift for making you feel welcome. His heart for hospitality is second to none, and it's obvious that serving great food and creating a great experience are his top priorities. If you're looking for a hidden gem in Clovis, this is it. Whether you're stopping in to catch a game, grab a meal with friends, or enjoy a simple flip-flop date night with your spouse, Miguel's is worth the visit. We'll definitely be back, and I can't recommend this place enough.
