Went in Mother's Day and were pleased to find out there wasn't a wait. Service was lovely and menu is huge. It's exactly what you want from a Mexican restaurant with all of the classics and some unique offerings. The vibe in here is festive and authentic. There is parking in the back as well as street parking which is nice especially on busier days like we had. My in laws had some draft beer and we really enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa. It had a nice flavor with a bit of a kick but nothing crazy, I enjoyed the arroz con pollo with added grilled onions and guacamole, very fresh and yummy. Husband had a giant Michaels burrito which he loved. My in laws both enjoyed their tacos and enchiladas. Overall a really solid spot in Clio! read more

Huge menu, great service and indoor and outdoor seating! Didn't have a margarita but one of our party did and said they were great. Fantastic prices, the five of us ate for $100 including drinks. Portions are huge and food was great! They had tortas and birria combos, and standard fare. Sat outside but plenty of seating inside and great ambiance. read more

Don Felipe Mexican Restaurant - Rancheras Cinco - Mexican Near Me - Clio, Michigan

Becoming a regular stop! Service was great, seated right away. This Mexican vibe restaurant did not disappoint. We had a group of 4 and we all had the Pina Loca which was awesome. Served in a half pineapple stuffed and overflowing with seasoned steak, chicken, shrimp, peppers, onions and tomato, then smothered in cheese. Would highly recommend, but come hungry! read more

This was not the first time I've been here but I won't be going back. Ordered take out, was quoted a time and was there slightly early. Food wasn't quite ready and that's not a surprise. I look up from phone while waiting and I'm being stared at from the kitchen which I found off putting. As time went on and my order was probably ready, the staff was still too busy staring at me and blatantly talking shit about me. I know this is a poorly disguised chain restaurant and I've never had the food be late at any location, it is always early. After I started staring back at the staff finally someone decided maybe they should check on my food. Surprise it sure was ready and probably had been they just needed to do their job and deliver it. The lady couldn't even keep herself straight from laughing in my face taking my money and then when I don't tip, the shortest of the undersized men working there comes out to stare me down before I leave. These people are entitled and have forgotten they work in the hospitality industry. Not the first time I've noticed the attitude they have at this location but this was unacceptable and I would recommend going to Puerta Vallarta in Flushing instead. It is the flagship store in the area and is superior in every way. Couldn't say it enough that the hostility they have for no real reason is undeserving of your business to anyone reading this. read more

Food is good and always fast. Great selection with daily deals. Excellent drinks. Staff is always smiling and pleasant. Fun patio looking out to the bustling downtown. Pricing is a bit pricey but in comparison it's about what you would expect. Try the shrimp enchiladas and the queso! read more

Sooooo good Great waiters... best Mexican restaurant I have been to in a long time. Margaritas are amazing read more

Their salsa not so great and fajitas are okay. There chimichongas, I have now had more than one and they are not good. It has been since the firprat opened but their tamales had no flavor. Atmosphere seems nice, but sala is huge for me. I slather it om everything, so it must be the best thing. Imo only of course. read more

Worst experience ever. Chips had no salt, no taste. Entrees looked good...the most non-tasting generic Mexican food I've ever had. Carne asada was the first ever. Plain, no tasting steak. Extremely disappointing. read more

Don Felipe Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Combo platter ... carne asada. - Mexican Near Me - Clio, Michigan

The service was amazing. Out waiter was kind and attentive. Food was so so good! Everyone at the table ordered something different and it was all delicious read more

Have a situation where deliveries are very important. Tried to order food to be delivered by Door Dash online & the order went through only to have Door Dash tell me that they don't deliver from there, but that they would tell Dom Filipe about the order. That meant that I would get stuck with the bill with no delivery. I called the restaurant immediatly & they told me to contact Door Dash. I was super upset because Door Dash usually doesn't address such issues in corporate until the next day. Somehow Dom Filipe's made this delivery happen! We really appreciate that. read more

One of the most authentic Mexican restaurants around the Flint area. True Mexican excellent service!

The food is good very hot when you get it. When they first opened me and my family tried it and we enjoyed it.

This is a hidden gem. They do not have a wide range on the menu, like street tacos or variety of proteins (el pastor, Lengua). Don't feel like that means you won't have good vittles though. The soup had so much flavor and packed full of chicken. My lunch date ordered a California burrito that was slamming with flavor and the portion size was nice. Highly recommend trying them if you're in Clio instead of the corporate owned locations near the freeway. You will be happy you did. Also don't forget to tip your servers, I hate that I have to even say this but man do I not get why people feel they don't need to do this. read more

Don Felipe Mexican Restaurant - Chicken rice soup - Mexican Near Me - Clio, Michigan

Visiting some family in Frankenmuth and it was suggested to go here instead of in town. I could tell my family and her friends liked this place and came here all the time but I wasn't impressed. I felt the dishes were very bland. I had a dish of 5 different enchiladas and you couldn't tell the difference they all tasted exactly the same. No distinct flavor within the sauce or meats at all. The restaurant also had a very strong cleaning fluid smell that really bothered me while I ate. Almost to the point where I felt like I could taste it. The staff is very friendly, however there was a little language issue some food was wrong. And to top it off someone in our party found hair in their food, so no we won't be back. This was a one and done for us! read more

Service was courteous and prompt and the quality of the menu selections was also very good. Four of us ate here this evening and all of us agree that we would return another time. Chips and salsa provided an excellent start to the meal and the speed of service was also excellent. We will return another time when headed up north.. read more

I just had this for the first time! The chips and salsa were amazing. The street tacos were so good. THE MARGARITAS WERE HUGE!!!! (Feeling it a little). The rice was really good too. The atmosphere was cute. The food came out soooo fast. The staff was friendly, and the service was really good. read more

Don Felipe Mexican Restaurant - Steak street tacos - Mexican Near Me - Clio, Michigan

There are two things about Don Felipe that stand out. The people and the freshness. I now live in Clio and order from here all the time. Everything is always so good and fresh tasting. A lot of Mexican restaurants serve food that kinda starts all tasting the same, but not here. Best Mexican food around. read more

Was suggested to me to try since it was located 15 minutes away from home, but it was a very disappointing experience. The food didn't have any flavor at all, not even the salsa. Won't be going back. read more

My fiancé said this was the best restaurant Mexican food he's had & I agree very delicious & very top notch

We have tried on a few occasions to eat here. We order and the food comes out and clearly it's not what we ordered. When we try to inquire about the situation, the staff acts like they can't understand us. read more

Tried out Don Felipe's in Clio for the first time, they are building one in the town I live in so I thought I would check it out. Not sure if the waiters and waitresses could speak English, they didn't talk to us hardly at all even after I asked a question. Sorry to say, The food was very disappointing, not much flavor at all. I will try them once more maybe order something different when the open in town, but if they can't make me I food better than I can make at home I won't be eating there. read more

We came across Don Felipe taking back roads and decided to stop in on a rainy afternoon for fajitas. Food was great and the service was exceptional. read more

This is another one of those unexpected surprises. We had an exceptionally good meal here. They also provided the extra hot salsa we requested, hot with a good flavor. We both ordered the street tacos, we had the steak, chicken, and pork. We would order all 3 again. We would recommend this resturant to friends and would return. read more

I'm not from this area but I rolled the dice and decided to give Don Felipe a chance. Well, it looks like I rolled a couple of five's which equals a 10. Could not be happier that we decided to eat here. I could see walking in that they had a patio space overlooking the street which looked like a cool spot to post up. We were quickly greeted and shown to our seats on the patio overlooking the street. The space look to be freshly built or remodeled. The server greeted us very quickly and had a smile on his face the entire time he was working. The menu has everything that you would expect from a Mexican place and the prices were incredibly reasonable. Chips and salsa were a delight. The chips were warm and the salsa was peppery with a hint of fresh cilantro and lime. I ordered chorizo queso for an appetizer - One of the best queso dishes that I've ever experienced. The chorizo was full of flavor without being overly spicy and the case I would definitely tasted homemade. They served me a 33 ounce Modelo in a frosted mug - incredibly refreshing. we ordered the chicken street tacos and a burrito with chorizo chicken shrimp pineapple and covered in queso. Both dishes were impressive. The chicken tacos were seasoned very well and I love the corn tortilla it was fresh and chewy. The tacos were topped with a grilled jalapeño, onion and a unique slice of cactus. My brother did not think he could eat the entire burrito but could not stop once he started. They also brought us additional dipping sauces such as habanero and Verde salsa. I would bottle the Verde salsa and start selling it in the grocery store immediately. The food-the service-the atmosphere...10,10,10 Just come here you won't regret it! read more

Authentic Mexican restaurant that's hidden in Clio. Service is great, the food is generous and the prices are reasonable. They offer a long list of items on the menu. It doesn't look big from the outside but it is. Parking is in the back. Will definitely be back here again. read more

I hate the booth seating. Every move the person sharing your seat behind you makes can be felt, and vice versa. It doesn't help that if you have sub-par clientelle coming into this establishment, they shake their side even moreso after you've sat down because they can't handle the minor inconvenience of someone getting settled into their side of the booth. It's awful. Fix your booths so they don't shake. It makes the dining experience incredibly uncomfortable and can create tension between customers. It looks like they are adding a bar so maybe they can also fix the booth seating so you're not being shaken around also? The food is fresh, but it's expensive and also tastes like your typical Mexican American fare. I find it endearing that the staff there speak Spanish, but I wish they'd bring some of that authentic Mexican to their dishes as well. read more

Great service and food Checked out this place for the first time after hearing how good it was and it lived up to the expectations read more

We have ate at Don Felipes many times w my family and also w/groups of friends. And everytime the food is fantastic and always consistant. We have never had any bad expériences. The owner Juan and his team are always very friendly and make it a festive meal in true Mexican tradition. They all do à great job & so glad Clio has this. Gary/Joanie H. read more

Never been here, stopped in for lunch. Glad we did. I' m not a big Mexican American Restaurant fan, this is certainly one of the best I've been to. Tried the enchiladas they read tasty on the menu so took a chance even though always in the past at other places they were not good. Enjoyed them very much would order them again. Git the cinco to try them all, beef and cheese was my favorite although all were good. Girlfriend got the chimichanga which was also good. Flan was tasty and the margaritas were a great size. Salsa was awesome and good chips to go with it. Service was good, tentative and very friendly. read more

The food is bland to me. I been there 2 times to give it a 2nd chance. Wont go back there. One of the male workers told me I should put my phone away when at the table with my son because meal time is family time. Who's paying for the meal? ME! I can't check my phone to see who had called and left message without a lecture? I'm 51 years old ,I have a dad,dont need a stranger telling me what to do. read more

Truly a hidden gem! I ordered the fajitas and the chimichanga and was honestly surprised by how flavorful the food was! Our plan is to return again! I would suggest anyone looking for good service and good food, stop here! read more

Great authentic Mexican food! I got a chicken and chorizo quesadilla when I went and it was HUGE! Stuffed full of cheesy meaty goodness & incredibly tasty! I love the atmosphere too, very pretty decor, seats, & tables. You could say they're kinda pricy but what authentic Mexican food isn't? You pay for the quality you get! I went back a second time and it was just as good! Don't pass up a chance to stop into Don Felipe! read more

Don Felipe Mexican Restaurant - Chicken & chorizo quesadilla! So much meat & cheese packed inside. Incredibly tasty! - Mexican Near Me - Clio, Michigan

Wait staff nice, food not. Huge chunks of cartilage in my enchiladas. Small portions for price just not a fan all together.

We stopped on a whim and it was AMAZING! The food was great and the staff was incredible. It was decently busy, 90% full, and we didn't wait 5min in between some stopping by to check on us while we ate. 100% going back. read more

Awesome experience. Super traditional feel to the place. Clean! Very comfortable booths. (= From the moment you walk in to when you leave...service is exceptional and the food is even better. First off their salsa is some of the best salsa I've ever had. I ordered the Charro Taco Salad. Fire! Definitely coming back to try more things on the menu. read more

So great to have a Mexican place locally again. Can't wait to take the family again week! read more

Thanks for the great food. read more
