    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.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant is clean and updated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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!

    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

    Salad

    Very good Hawaiian Chicken Special with bacon and pineapple. Great dish if you ever see it I would recommend it. If you do order it get their habanero sauce and put it on the chicken. It gave it a bit of heat and added to the flavor. It was extremely good without it as well. The salsa served with the chips was quite tasty. The tortilla soup was good. It lacked a bit in flavor, but still tasty and the slices of avocado was a nice accompaniment. In all I enjoyed the food and our service was excellent. - He Said

    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.

I really enjoyed the tableside watermelon and pineapple cups with fresh fruit and Tajín. The queso flameado was another standout, especially with the sizzling, fiery presentation when it hit the table. I also tried some of their seafood options, including salmon and red snapper, along with their signature drinks. The margaritas and mojitos added to the overall experience and made it feel like more than just a typical dinner. What stood out to me most was the combination of fresh food, vibrant Mexican flavors, tableside presentations, seafood, and cocktails. There was always something happening at the table, which made the meal feel fun and memorable. I'd recommend Hacienda Bar & Grill if you're in McDonough and looking for Mexican food with a little extra experience built in. It would be a fun option for a date night, dinner with friends, or a night out.

The dim lighting, smooth saxophone music, and laidback back atmosphere created the perfect date-night vibe--even though I was just there to enjoy myself. The service was exceptional. I barely had time to settle into my seat before my order was taken, my drink arrived in record time, and it was delivered by the cutest little robot! Such a fun and unexpected touch that made the experience even more memorable. I wish I could remember the name of my cocktail because it was flirty, refreshing, smooth, and dangerously delicious. One sip, and I was sold! I ordered the beef enchiladas. They leaned a little salty for my taste, but they were still flavorful and satisfying. Overall, the atmosphere, service, and unique experience made this a place I'd happily visit again. If I'm ever back in the area, Hacienda Bar & Grill will definitely be on my list!
