Working in Madera and got hungry- Yelp sent me the right way !! I can say good things about all : service , food , ambiance but it's just an understatement!! Jesus was great !! The food ?? How about HOME MADE TORTILLAS!!++ The salsa was fresh and so tasty .... anyway guys come here for some great food !!!

Chili Colorado chimichanga half gone. Delicious!

I saw the verde chili verde wet chimichanga on the menu and asked the waiter if they could do it with the chile colorado. The waiter told us yes and it was one of the best I have ever had. My wife had the taco salad and she l it was delicious and would order it again. I would definitely come here and order this same thing!

Ordered the carne asada burrito and it was so big that I had a save half of it. It tasted great and was obviously fresh and hot. I came during the lunch rush and was still able to get my food pretty fast. There are TVs playing baseball and football which was nice to watch as I waited. I will definitely be back.

Rice & Beans ain't looked so pretty

We came to Madera today pretty suddenly ( our son was out here practicing robotics and dislocated his shoulder! We ended up trying to find a place for dinner on short notice and Yelp came to our rescue This place is right next to the gas station ( for the win - we had to top it off). It has a cozy homey feel and the hostess and the servers were super friendly. They started us off with the free salsa and chips which were delish ( we asked them to hit us with more spice and they happily obliged). I got the Chile Relleno which was alright ( honestly I have had better) BUT the home made corn tortillas and the chicken fajitas sealed the deal for us - if we are ever in Madera again we will definitely hit up this place. Cameron was one of the friendliest person and was so easy to talk to...we will be back!

10/21/23 Getting breakfast for tomorrow! Ham breakfast burrito with egg whites & jalapeños added with hot sauce on the side ordered. The worker was kind and said it would be ready in 15 minutes. I went in to pick it up. Nice, little restaurant. Calm. Tv up on the wall. Lots of seating. Booths & tables. Safe & clean. Greeted and the order was almost ready. Paid for it & waited a little while before it was ready and the worker was happy to bag it along with good day wishes! 10/22/23 Happy sunday everyone! Breakfast burrito split. My half was REALLY DELICIOUS! Homemade flour tortilla, fresh jalapeños, tasty egg white & potatoes! Even better with their super hot salsa! I'm sure mother will feel the same when she gets up to have hers! Great service & Great breakfast burrito! Highly Recommended!

First time here, Sis and family have been raving about this spot. I must say the staff are super friendly. I had a chance to interact with Jesus who was our waiter and Alex who was also working tonight, both were super friendly and attentive. Sis raved about the chimichanga but I got the burrito and soon regretted it. I ordered rice, beans and cheese with avocado inside. The burrito was okay but the contents were not hot and as I kept looking over at Sis and saw the steam coming from hers I was more and more disappointed. I was going to just accept it but Sis spoke up for me and Jesus was kind enough to bring me a chimichangas instead. This is the first spot I've come to that offers vegetarian chimichangas. I was pleased but one complaint is they do not have any mild salsa so I had to request pico de gallo. I also ordered the mini flautas (cheese) w/guacamole. Nothing major to write home about but the guac is DELISH! Bro-in~law ordered the green sauce carnitas enchiladas w/boiled beans and was very pleased. Overall the food was cool, maybe I need to try something else but the customer service is BOMB, ON POINT!!! Thank you Jesus and Alex.

Chili verde omelette. Yum!

Great food and friendly service. Since moving to the area, this has become our go-to Mexican restaurant...especially for that Sunday morning breakfast. Yes, please! Food is authentic, tortillas better than most, and value great. They appear to do a lot of take out business, but we usually dine-in and always had a good experience. Recently saw they also do catering, so that's awesome too. Definitely recommend you give them a visit. Support local family businesses!

We were heading toward Yosemite and decided to stop here on a whim and I am so glad we did…read more The location was easy to find, and there was plenty of seating, so we were able to sit down right away. As soon as we looked over the menu, my mouth was already watering. We ordered the aguachiles verdes, the molcajete supreme, and I added a side of fries. When I say the food came out fast, I mean FAST, especially for food this fresh. The wait staff was attentive, friendly, and checked in just enough without being overbearing. The aguachile was honestly one of the best I've had. The green sauce was incredibly flavorful, perfectly balanced, and everything tasted fresh and vibrant. The molcajete supreme did not disappoint. The sauce was rich and delicious, and the portion of carne and shrimp was generous and very satisfying. You can tell care goes into the food here. And somehow, even the fries were amazing .... crispy, hot, and the perfect side. If you're passing through on your way to Yosemite, this place is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back.

Like most, we found this place here on Yelp and was not disappointed. Everything was so tasty and…read morethe seafood was so fresh. My favorite were the shrimp tacos. So full of sweet and spicy flavors. The Mexican sushi rolls are HUGE! I can't wait to come back and try the molcajete. The atmosphere is open and finding the place was a little hidden from the main street. The service was friendly and fast. And we even got a complimentary slice of cake and ice cream because they were celebrating one of their employees. Much appreciated.
