I had the best Arroz con pollo here. It's so good. The sauce is amazing and there's lots of grilled onions. My only issue with the dish is you don't get much rice. It comes with a salad and tortillas. I hear there is an amazing happy hour deal here if you sit by the bar so you should try to take advantage of that. I also saw that they hand make guacamole in front of you so I'd also like to try that. They also give you fresh made chips with beans and a spicy salsa. The salsa was amazing and they were happy to give me more when requested. The only reason why I reduced it by one star is because of the service. I think they had plenty of servers, and the servers were polite, however it took a long time to get my food (which could just be the kitchen) but then I had To get up and ask for to go boxes and my check. I went at a time (late afternoon) when I think staff was changing but they could be better about managing customers in the future. That being said I literally can't wait to go back. I highly recommend you give it a try !! read more

We come here once or twice a week because the food and drinks are so great! I've tried many things on the menu and they've all been delicious. The posole and tacos rancheros are two of my favorites. They really treat you like family here and it's such a great atmosphere. Brenda, Ceci, Alex, Veli, Maria, Yesenia and Brian are all so amazing and they are one of the many reasons we come back so often! read more

El Cazador - The BEST Watermelon margarita - Mexican Near Me - Modesto, California

Super friendly service, I feel so comfortable here! So for the 3 stars. The happy hour drinks are not explained well at all. I was told margaritas were happy hour, but when I ordered mine, dude was like 15 bucks. Dang. Hopefully next time I get it right! However, food service is quick and I love both the outside and inside environment. Very clean and comfy. read more

I used to love the food here. Sad to report I got very sick last night after eating here. I only had food from this place in my stomach and woke up at 2:30 am very sick. The picture is from something I found in my food 2 weeks before. It had fuzz on it. I should have never went back. read more

We have been coming to El Cazador for over 10 years. Excellent customer service and delicious food...and drink.

Food can be really hit or miss, and the service isn't ever that friendly. The only thing worth your buck is the drinks. The atmosphere is creepy due to bar flies read more

A friend introduced us to this place and we love it. Especially when you order the Guacamole and they make it fresh right in front of your table. Very creative drinks that are delicious. Our waitress/bartender Maria was very sweet and never left us without Cocktails/ beer and food. read more

Disappointed in how our Parrilla special took so long to get to our table... Being sitting down for almost an hour and with two little children was a Hussle. Been here lots of times and never has this happened to me. The waitress faces looked stressed out like hurrying to close made us feel uncomfortable to eat while being almost the last ones there from the inside tables. read more

We had our Son in law birthday party 25 adults and children the staff is amazing service was fast and the is amazing

The food was not that good the waitress that attended us was giving attitude and was being disrespectful the food was not even that good either not the best place to eat in Modesto. The ambience could be better there are many things they need to improve on. The drinks have more ice than water. I got an horchata and there was powder in my drink. It was also white washed and it did not seem like a Mexican restaurant this would not be my first choice in Modesto for a Mexican restaurant read more

Five stars! This place is a go-to, whether it's a girls lunch or date night out. The margaritas are huge -- plus consistently strong and flavorful, favorites include watermelon, strawberry, and mango. The rest of their bar menu is great as well, I love the Nitro V when not grabbing a margarita. The service is always quick and friendly, even when busy. Food standouts are the fresh table side guac, any dish with their juicy shredded beef, and the large size street tacos. With many Mexican food spots in the area, do not miss out on this hidden one! read more

First time here & wont be coming back, the waiter took our order 20 min after we showed up & when he did he looked like he was in a rush , and kept asking "is that it?" Drinks are $15 & have a shot of alcohol ‍ but a whole 4 cups of nothing but juice & sugar. Food was not the best rice was hard and shrimp had no flavor. Unfortunately I won't be coming back. read more

The food was top notch! Service was fast and super friendly. I was just passing through and decided to grab a bite, best decision ever! From decor on the walls even the bathroom was clean and had great decor. A must try!! read more

Food was bland and nasty. First time eating here and ordered the chimichanga. Not crispy at all.. actually didn't even seem fried.. looked like it was just warmed and then rolled.. like a standard burritos barley any sour cream or guacamole came with it. Chicken and rice inside was super bland and hardly has any flavor. Way more rice then meat. Seems like they only care about getting people drunk by example of their drink menu and specials.. at least if people are drunk they don't care how crappy the food tastes.. will not be wasting $50 dollars on this sad excuse for Mexican food again. Salsa that came with food is like ketchup with super spices in it... like it came from a can. read more

Not impressed at all. Food was mediocre and customer service was about the same. An extreme disappointment was the adult beverage a michelada. With so many pictures and menu items involving drinks I figured they were expert mixologists...well nope, that was all just a bluff I guess. I visited this place once or twice before and thought it was better but then again if it was wonderful I would be going there more often since its pretty close to me. Maybe in another 6 months I will try again. read more

Third time going here. First two times very good experience. The food was so good the first time that I returned the following day. Ahora fui a desayunar, y los chilaquiles y la carne asada estaban muy malos! Tenían un sabor raro la comida no estaba buena. Me servíeron doble frijol. Nada de arroz. This meal was a waste of money. I do not recommend the breakfast. Unfortunately, It is going in the trash. The mole on the lunch menu however, is highly recommended. read more

Service is always great. I absolutely love their menu and beverage selections. It's clean and welcoming. This is the best Mexican restaurant I've been to in Modesto and surround areas. read more

I have always loved the food but this last night it was not the best. The food was old n burnt.

Absolutely horrible. I placed a to go order for 6 tacos and only received 3. Tried calling multiple times and the line has been busy for two hours straight. Customer service is rude and refuse to give me my money back read more

It's our local favorite for Mexican food and drinks. Quality and prices are very good.

Love the food staff , and exceptional service they welcome everyone not one race is excluded or ignored love this restaurant. Food is phenomenal drinks are also on top of this world. You have to try the homemade tortillas these are the best. read more

Got our order To Go due to Covid 19. This has become my favorite Mexican restaurant in Modesto. Tonight we had Tacos Alambre, flauta, and some borracho beans. All delicious. The salsa is spicy, just the way we like it and the service was friendly and efficient. This meal made my Covid birthday better! read more

It's a Wednesday night the regular bartenders in here. It's a new bartender. Usually they bring your chips salsa beans I've seen three customers. Come to the bar. Get a beer. They don't get no chips. Nothing just kind of disappointed in the service. The new bartender that's filling in doing an awful job, I don't see why they're using her. I guess that's why she's a feelin and not the regular. Have a good night. read more

Been one of our favorites for a few years but recent Friday nite take out was a Bomb! My favorite Tapatia was 1/3 size it used to be, bottom corn tortilla must have gotten burned to the pan and there was not more than 1/4 cup of salad on top. Ordered 2 orders of flour chips to go with the bean dip ( O.K.) and most were hard and stale and the other order was corn- not ordered and a bit greasy. Lose your chef or what?? Hubby had Fajitas that were pretty good and should have been at the normal dinner prices. ouch! read more

Went to get drinks and dinner with my boyfriend. They paid no attention to us and finally about 20 minutes after we sat down took our drink and food order. 5 minutes later came back with our drinks. Another table came and sat down and we noticed they got their food before us. Next thing I know we're waitng 45 minutes and then the waitor comes up with our check and the food and drinks were on the receipt. We never received our food. I was pissed. Told him ill pay for our 2 drinks but thats it. Sucky service. Haven't been back since. read more

My family has visited this restaurant/bar since the day they opened. NEVER Again. , I arrived to meet friends, wanted a margarita, and was ignored for at least 10 minutes. This has happened at least 4 times. Also, the table was sticky, floor dirty. read more

Extremely weak drinks, messed up order, mediocre food, not the cleanest place, poor service.

This has quickly become one of my favorite places. The margaritas are great and so is the food, and it's so cheap. My friend was shocked by how cheap our dinner was when we went. It's become the main place I want to go to when I go out with a friend. Definitely a place I go to a few times a month read more

why do they overcook the fajitas? I literally have to scrape or pry the vegetables off of the dish.. i've been going there for six months now at least once a week and I've noticed that the servers are slow or have slowed down. Come on guys you can do better. read more

The food was amazing. My first time there. I will definitely go back. Service was fast. The ambiance was uplifting and fun. And the Cadillac Margarita the best. You can't have just one so good. Now I'm hungry. read more

Great food and margaritas the Chile Colorado is the best. Also they serve Tapitios which is very rare love it thanks
