    Small Nachos with Chile Colorado
    Andrea P.

    I was in the area and went to go get the Breakfast Special, which comes with two ham, eggs and potatoes and cheese inside of it, I Shared one with my mom. Also I go a side order of chips and salsa. The customer service is always great. Call first to make sure the breakfast special orders wait time isn't too long.

    I purchased menudo today, Sunday arrived home to warm it up to find that what I purchased was the majority was only harmony. I drove back with my purchased menudo to show him that I was unhappy; instead of trying to resolve the issue by first apologizing and giving me another one he simply said we'll, here's your money. I then told him I think this is the last time I come here his response was simply ok. All in on all extremly horrible. ​

    Beef tamale
    Brigette G.

    My review is only for the tamales, I haven't tried any of the other items on the menu yet, so stay tuned... I placed an order on a Tuesday, for a few dozen that following Sunday for my Christmas dinner. The cashier was friendly and I didn't have to wait at all. He quickly brought out my order of warm tamales, Wow talk about big ! The beef was my favorite, very flavorful. Lots of Masa! . All you need is one! The chicken was also good also, but it was a tad bit salty. This is a hole in the spot in Indio that has been around for many years. Be prepared to wait in the long line, but it is definitely worth it.

    The tamale boats are absolutely amazing. I drive 20 miles just to get one. There is no seating, take out only.

    Their tortilla chips tastes like Fritos. Different but good. Doesn't get soggy as fast as the regular kinds.

    The tamales are very good. I also like their breakfast burritos. I didn't care for the tortilla chips. Way too hard.

    Is the prepared masa that is sold for tortillas, tamales, pupusas? Can it be used as is or does something need to be added?

    If you buy the prepared one you can use as is and it cost a little more.

    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.

    *Mi Casa es Su Casa*…read more My buddy had a small casual bday get-together with his family and invited me to join the celebration. I saw all the favorable reviews on Yelp and was looking forward to my first visit at Casa Mendoza. Very chill & lively family owned Mexican joint in Old Town LQ. The place was kinda busy @6:30pm on Hump Night ~~ always a great sign when I see this. Felt more like a Sunday Evening. It took an hour to receive our meals. Ordered @6:45 arrived @7:45pm. Good thing the Chimichanga & Gauc apps arrived pretty quickly. The Gauc was Excellente. All their food was very good. But all our meals arrived cold/lukewarm. Took forever to receive our food and we knew for a fact it's because all our plates sat a while until we were served. The actual plates weren't even warm and the sizzling fajitas had sizzled out and lost its dazzle. Because it was still 95 degrees when dinner was finally served, our lukewarm meals were doable on a hot night. Everyone did enjoy their meals tho. I was very pleased with my Mahi Mahi in Garlic Butter Sauce. The refried beans were outstanding. The rice very good...and I made tacos with the 3 corn tortillas. But would have enjoyed it even more had all the food been a little warmer. I stuck with H2O but all margarita drinkers said their drinks were good and hit the spot on a warm night. The service in general was also inconsistent for our small party of 8. The Birthday Boy was a little frustrated and got up a few times from his throne seeking assistance -- such as missing tortillas for meals, water refills, extra napkins. We even had to wait longer than anticipated for them to acknowledge the bday boy with a celebratory bday song & sombrero...and the fried ice cream, which didn't include a candle. Tho we all enjoyed ourselves and time together...a 2 hour dinner at a Mexican joint on a Wednesday night wasn't what we anticipated. Especially with one restless 7 year old ;-) But everyone working at Casa Mendoza is very friendly with great attitudes. Hostess team, waiters, servers & runners too. So that made up for the spotty service, just a little bit. Since I'm closer to the other Casa Mendoza in Palm Desert, I'd go there in the future with my wife, and order the exact same thing. But hope for much better service and warmer food.
