    Chips & Salsa
    Jasmine G.

    Food and service were good! Salsa was great! They have a bar here as well for those wanting a drink.

    Cute little local favorite for Mexican. Unfortunately, it was under staffed. It took a long time to get seated & longer to get our order taken. I had the enchilada special. The portions were big & worth the price. Sadly, however, the ground beef was very greasy & I would not recommend it. The aqua fresca was delicious & refreshing. If i came again, I would order something different or come for breakfast.

    Very good Mexican restaurant off the 10 freeway. Excellent carne asada, salsa, and tortillas. The only thing that could have been better were the chips. I also really liked the floor to ceiling stall door restrooms.

    We stopped in during our road trip. Everything was great. Salsa wasn't spicy but the flavor was great. The food had a perfect balance of flavor. Everything was nice and fresh and coffee tasted great. The service wasn't bad. It is a small business so the service was what you would expect from a smaller restaurant. There weren't many people there so it was nice and quiet. We had a nice and relaxing meal. We would definitely come again!

    Two tacos and rice. Enough to last 24 hours!

    Food- large and in charge. You won't regret eating here. Food is cooked to order and piping hot in a blink of an eye. I got an asada and shrimp taco with rice. I usually eat once a day during the week and was not disappointed. While it's not extraordinarily the best tacos I've ever had, it was decent, especially with there home made salsa. Spicy and tangy to balance out the meaty. I love rice and they gave me more than enough. I walked away with no regrets and a full belly. I will be back. Service - just the right balance of kindness and attentiveness. Never rushing or pushy. Cleanliness- bathroom was clean. Parking- decent amount AC - works great in 110 plus heat

    We missed our Blythe exit and had to turn around and this is were we ended up, hangry and all that. Good was delish; I had sope and fish taco combo and my beloved enjoyed huevos rancheros. Coffee was great; chips freshly made, salsa had a little kick, enough to reminds us we're ALIVE. If we're crossing 'round these parts, we'll be sure to stop at Garcia's for good Mex Food.

    Authentic Mexican food fresh tasting shrimp tacos in the desert love it. Waitress knows our order and is so sweet.

    The chips and salsa was phenomenal. Authentic and fresh. It's the only reason I'm giving this place 2 stars. The service.....some of the worst I've ever had. It took about 20 minutes to get 2 waters and some chips and salsa. We waited another 40 mins for 1 carne asada plate that never even showed up, so we walked out after we saw the table next to us get their food even though they came in 20 minutes after us. I do not recommend coming here if you are in a hurry. They need help. The phone rang off the hook the whole time we were there and nobody answered.

    This review was overlooked so kinda a late posting!!! This place was our to go to Mexican Cuisine when we visited Blythe last Summer in June and July!! Indoor seating is very limited and lunch time gets crowded ! We are lucky to always find a table for us . Although covered outdoor seatings are available we dared not dine outside due to extreme heat !!! Food are served in big portions so beware!! Lol you will sure get sooooo full! I tried their Beef stew soup which was super flavorful like our Filipino "Nilaga" ... Meat was tender and medley veggies included corn on a cob my fav to nibble !! Soup is always my comfort meal anytime of the day and of all season !! Love ! love ! Love ! love their fresh Pineapple Drink which is not watered down with ice and with every sweetness sip you get those fresh blended pineapple fruit pulp ! it really quenched my thirst on a scorching hot weather of 100 degrees !!!!!

I walked in, and was never greeted, the young guy walked around to the back of the counter to answer a phone call that came in after I was already standing at the counter.

I usually stop at Carls Jr but the girls wanted something different. We found Quesa Birria Tacos on Google. It had high ratings so we went. Its a little hole in the wall next to a sus motel. I believe there may have been a drug deal going on in the parking lot. Normally I would have kept driving but I'm pretty glad I didnt! The place was packed inside. My friend ordered the chicken with a side of chips, the other ordered crunchy asada tacos, and I ordered carnitas taquitos. I did not expect much but GODDAMN the food was good!!! I can tell the corn tortillas are homemade and then fried for the chips, crunchy tacos, and taquitos. The carnitas inside my taquitos was tender and juicy without and fat or weird parts. I did go find the restroom to wash my hands and it was pretty gross inside but the food was so good that I'm not even deducing any stars. Just wash your hands before you go there.

    I wanted to love this place so bad!…read more My hash browns were drenched in oil. I asked for an over medium egg.. it was only cooked on 1 side so the white was still uncooked, bacon was all fat. The only thing good about my meal was the pancake The guy who sat us was very polite and friendly The restaurant it's self, very small, gives small hometown vibes (think Sweet home Alabama) Total was $60.. only ate have a pancake

    Everything was tasty but I would make a few recommendations:…read more One is change the fake butter flavored spread or whatever it is that is used on the texas toast/sandwich bread - it cheapens the quality of your "homemade" food. Second, check the salad mix for rusty/brown/wilted bits - it totally killed the excitement I had to find your ranch dressing is yummy (i.e. not that cheap weird tangy crap many restaurants use) and my salad had ham bits but then it had like a 1/3 bad lettuce that I had to remove. Lasty, even though it's the end of the day and I know you are tired - front of the house customer service is equally as important to me as the quality of the food. It's imperative to be pleasant always and not make the customer feel like they are putting you out or burdening you - smile more at the very least - make me feel welcomed and want to back. Okay, sorry... one more - no one wants tomato slices as their only side veggie option - they were mealy, went straight in the trash, and that's just wasteful for your pocket and mine. There is no shortage of mixed veggies (frozen or canned) and I would be more than satisfied to have that as an option with real butter applied. That's just MHO - maybe the town likes tom slices and I'm way off... idk - I just didn't get it and I'm not a fan of that veggie option. Now the goods - prime rib was very flavorful (not quite med-rare as requested but the flavor made up for it), fish n chicken tenders was a good portion (though I don't think I was supposed to get 2 fish/2 chicken filets - it was still yummy along with the tarter sauce, and the salad with ham bits made me very happy... plus the ranch was quality (tasted like the good Ole hidden valley ranch dip packet w/sour cream which far exceeds that other bottled junk including the bottled version of its own, lol). Ambiance was fine for a diner but could benefit from a sprucing up to more match the feel of the outside of the building. A spring cleaning and a fresh slap of white paint to pick everything up inside. I like the little "gift shop" in the middle giving more privacy between tables. Overall, Steaks n Cakes is a much appreciated option in Blythe where a lot of quality dining options are lacking. Thanks y'all!
