    Amazing food and friendly service! Always! We met friends for dinner and although they have changed…read morethe place physically (there's a wall separating the dining room from the front door) everything wonderful is still the same! Edgard ( I think I spelled that correctly) is still in the kitchen working his magic! Friends ordered the chicken tacos and shrimp tacos. Served in warm, soft flour tortillas, they are always a hit. DH ordered a smash burger which he said was good, but needed a bit more seasoning. I was I. Heaven with the delish marinated roasted chicken. Someone asked me what it is marinated in; my answer was: it's marinated in deliciousness! True! Served with choices of sides, my chicken came with a salad ( always fresh ) and plantains. So delicious and such a great portion! I remember when the owner talked about expanding and opening another place and I am so happy he is getting rewarded for his hard work. If you haven't been to Rocoto, do yourself and your tastebuds a favor and get there soon!

    Was super excited to try Peruvian food for the first time. The server was super nice. It seems like…read morethe business--even though set up with tables-- is more catered towards takeout. Ordering: There is a Dr. Pepper drawing on the menu but when I asked for that specific drink, the server let me know they do not serve Dr. Pepper. We chose "1/2 a chicken" as our entree but we were told it's only served on Friday's and Saturday's--we went on a Wednesday. Nothing on the menu said anything regarding that. Was a bit disappointing to get told the two things I wanted from their own menu are not being served. Additionally, weirdly, we had to pay before we got our food right after we ordered so it was not the best when it comes to knowing what type of tip to leave. We ended up buying an extra drink after we ate to leave the waiter a tip. Food: We ended up getting Anticucho de Carne in place of the chicken they don't serve daily. We had Roasted Chicken Empanadas as well as Beef and Cheese, they were delicious--especially the roasted chicken one with peppers and onions. The beef and cheese filling was very mild tasting, most of the flavor came from the outer part. The Lomo saltado was very clean tasting and enjoyable. Lastly, we got fried ice cream with honey which was a 10/10! Ambience: The dining area was super clean. There was no music. The seats are pretty close to each other, initially we were the only ones there but about 5 more parties came in and it was pretty tight but not uncomfortable at all. You get to see the bustling around the kitchen and front serving area, however, there is a wall that semi-separates the sitting area from the pick up counter adjacent to the serving area so you get to skip out on the in and out.

    My Mom and I went to Guadalajara Restaurant to eat lunch today. This isn't the first time we ate…read morelunch there. We have eaten at this restaurant several times, for lunch and dinner. I have to say, the service is always excellent, and of course the food is exceptional. I live in AZ where Mexican food is quite popular and this restaurant rivals the best we have in AZ. I love the fresh guacamole they prepare at your table. You can get it without jalapeños if you want. My Mom is allergic to jalapeños so we didn't have that in our guacamole. But it was still delicious. My favorite is the puerco de salsa, and my Mom is a vegetarian, so she usually gets the cheese, spinach and mushroom chimichanga. Today, she ordered the chicken burrito. She said it was excellent. We love the colorful chairs and the pictures on the wall. It is comfortable, clean and inviting. We bring some of our friends there once in a while. My friend loves this place because the portions are large, and yet so tasty! The menu is quite extensive, lots to choose from. We will continue to frequent this restaurant. It is a hidden gem in East York. Not much to look at on the outside, but plenty of parking and has a cute bar inside. You won't be disappointed!!

    I used to eat here at least once a week. The food is good, however last couple years whatever I eat…read moreI'm having bad reactions. not sure if its msg or too much salt but I get bad heart palpitations every time. almost ended up in the hospital last night. sorry but won't be eating here again.

    Took my daughter here for an early dinner and to cheer her up since she's had a rough few months…read more As the bad mom that I am I encouraged to order a margarita or piña colada but she was raised right and declined, saying alcohol won't improve her dreaded situation. Proud mama!!!! She ordered water I got tea. The service was friendly, fast and uninterrupted. We ordered carne asada and nachos. I can't remember all my daughter asked as toppings but it looked great! Food was good it came fast and hot! The steak was cooked to perfection. The only thing was that no cheese was mentioned on the menu but it did have it melted over the beans. It wasn't queso fresco; I couldn't tell what kind of cheese it was, maybe white American, but it was awful! I pushed it aside. My daughter said her nachos also had the same cheese on her nachos and she didn't like it either but the rest of the toppings were fantastic. lol when the chips were placed on the table with it were two bowls. One bowl was clearly salsa and the other was white so I dipped thinking it was queso. Yuck !!!! It definitely wasn't queso!! The restaurant could be cleaner. There were smudges on the windows and back door of dining area. The wall by kitchen you can see stains, dirt. The ladies room full length mirror had smudges and the center stall has a broken toilet seat. It was well stocked with paper towels and toilet paper and a soft fragrance. The outside signage wasn't very visible from the shopping center entrance. I had to loop around the parking lot toward the car wash and behind it, it was on that end. Don't know if there was a cross contamination with an allergen but after I left I had to take an allergy pill. I felt nausea and a scratchy feeling in my throat. Unfortunately I will have to eliminate Mex food from my diet it doesn't sit well.
