    Steak shrimp and chicken fajita quesadilla
    Wendell S.

    The food is always good here this time being no different I called in an order for pickup and was told 15 minutes, now I know restaurants get busy but it took an hour and 5 mins to receive my 15 minute pickup order. No sorry for the wait nothing just a here you go and have a nice day I've never had this issue with ordering to go or dining in with Gabino's but I believe they've bought into the hype of being locust grove's go to spot for Mexican cuisine and it hurt this customer!!!

    Gabino's is now Molinos. On our way home to Chicago from Florida we stopped for dinner, trying to avoid the I75 slow down. For Road food this place is good and the spicy margarita was pretty good - they could do with less ice. Kenya, our server, was very nice.

    Margaritas

    Restaurant is clean and updated. Our server was great and our food came out fast and was hot. We ordered the steak quesadilla and salad, rice, and black beans on the side. We had margaritas that were delicious. This is one of my favorite go to Mexican restaurants.

    Trio Nachos....YUMMY!!!!

    OMG, so good. If it wasn't for the terribly LOUD and RUDE people next to us everything else was OUTSTANDING!!!

    The service is superb, just like the food!! Glad I came here and guess what I'll be back cheers me

    Gold margarita... certainly had better.

    Hidden off the road you may miss it if you are not familiar with the place. I am still trying to understand the rating this place has. I ended up getting a top end margarita which was not Impressive at all - no fresh lime, just a mix, really??? For dinner I ended up getting the burrito combination (1 chicken and 1 beef) and determined that if you love a salt lick then you would have enjoyed it otherwise, it was not digestible. Rice and beans that came with the meal had to be sitting for who knows how long and certainly reheated. The salsa that came with the comp chips was a watered down version of generic salsa. The only thing worth while was the staff and their attentive nature. They tried to fix everything that failed and for that I recognize them. Maybe new ownership, chef, menu items would help them??? There are a lot of Mex / Tex-Mex places in GA that are more worth visiting.

    Amazing portion of food, great customer service. My friend who lives in Atlanta invited us here. I reside in Sarasota Fl. I asked my friend to give me suggestions of places to dine in GA. She recommended Gabino's mexican joint. She did wonderful. We walked in and was greeted & seated in such a timely manner. Our food was fresh, our drinks were delicious and generous. If I'm to go visit my friend again, I'll definitely add this to my itinerary!

    Margarita

    Absolutely delicious! We had a margarita, chunky guacamole, trios fajita nachos and a taco and an enchilada. All was fresh and fabulous.

    Went here for dinner last night and waited like 5 minutes before being seated. Really small bathroom. Be quick while washing your hands because it's right next to the door and I know if you are not paying attention it's your face in that door. Dinner was good. The plate was really hot which makes me think the food was already prepared and sitting under heat, I could be wrong. But the food came out wicked fast. I didn't like the guacamole but I did enjoy my steak meal. I would go here again.

    We usually get the steak fajitas for 2 as a to go order and you get a lot of food! It's really good also. Daily drink specials $8 patron margarita 20oz, you can't beat that. All the servers are really nice but only bartender I really like is Daniel. If I see him at the bar then I will have a drink while I wait for my order

    I was going to go 5 stars, because seeing how the staff here interacts with the community, almost…read moreeerily on a first name basis, giving normal patrons hugs and conversing in a familiar matter, a definite staple in the immediate community. The cohesiveness of the staff, is phenomenal. Brandon and Michael were my service personnel, and the hospitality that they provided was nothing less than stellar. Seriously, I've dined at a ton of upscale eating establishments, but these guys are five star / Michelin star restaurant type of staff, minus the vest, cummerbund and bowtie Think I'm lying? Look at all my reviews. I'm staying across the parking lot at the rat roof inn. I've stayed in this hotel before, and have seen this place multiple times throughout the last year, I can't not see it, because it's directly outside my window on the third floor, but I'm just so overly critical about my Mexican food and never came in, but I did today. I really wish I would have given this place a try before. Anything less than four stars about this place is an absolute robbery. Even from a stranger. The amount of unity in this restaurant is uncanny, it definitely has a small town vibe (sorry, I HATE using that word). These guys know everybody, and it seems like everybody knows everybody! So seeing so many people as repeat customers is obviously a good sign. Michael and Brandon made me a very generous jalapeno margarita.. I'm a drinker, daily drinker, liquor, and after throwing this bad boy back, I was definitely feeling like a smooth barracuda! I sat there for a good couple hours. Conversating with other restaurant goers at the bar. Everybody is just so nice, that is why I love the South. I'm only pulling one star, because my food was cold. I hate I hate I hate to say that, because everything else was so spot on. Even in the middle of my rice it was a little bit over room temp and my enchiladas weren't melted at all.. I was going to ask them to take it back and heat it up a little bit longer, but as the night went on they got really busy so they were hustling and bustling taking care of other customers. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm here in the area. You guys have a great staff, and I know the food is good, a lot of the food that they carried by me to other tables was actually sizzling. I might have just got the bad luck of the draw. ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

    August 09, 2024, Gabinos, Jackson, GA 5:20 pm…read more We were taking our friend out for her birthday, and she chose Gabinos. Initially we were going to go to the Locust Grove location, but I noticed online they had a Jackson location. Very convenient since they live in Jackson nest I-75. They had tried the LG location a couple weeks back and liked it. My wife and I had never been to any Gabinos before. We arrived and had ample parking to select from. We entered the restaurant and we're seated within 1 minute. The server gave us each a menu and took our drink order immediately. They serve Coke products. I selected the Mr Pibb ($2.95). The drink was nice and sweet, and good carbonation Since this was our first time, and our friends second time, we had to look over the menu. The server checked back in on us three times making sure that she was there when we were ready. While we waited, we snacked on some salsa and tortilla chips which were provided complimentary. Salsa was very thin on ingredients and runny. The tortilla were cooked a bit too long. All of us agreed on this point. I ordered the two meat fajita combo, for two people size. ($31.95) I wanted to have some for the wife and I tomorrow as well. Once we placed our order, the items were out within 7 minutes, steaming hot. We all remarked about how quickly the items arrived. My two meats were steak, and chicken. Both meats were pound down thinly, and partially precut. They were on your standard cast iron platter. The meat was on top of some vegetables. Not too much of the veggies under it. Since it was the size order for two, it came with 3 flour tortilla, for each person, rolled in aluminum foil. They looked to be about 6 inches round. The meats did have seasoning, but I would consider it on the much lighter side. The chicken tasted fine, but it did have a weird chew to it when biting through it. The steak was on the done side of cooked vs medium, so it had some toughness to it. Even though the meats were a bit chewy, it still didn't ruin the meal. I should have asked for the steak to be cooked medium. The side plate had a small lettuce amount, about 3 tbsp of pico, rice, beans with cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. Our server was fantastic. She checked on us very often, and refilled things quickly without needing to be requested to. Overall I felt this was an average food experience. Nothing for the meal stood out as fantastic, nor as bad. I will likely not visit again, as it isn't to my personal taste preference.
