Created a Yelp account to give my first review ever for this place. I will say the waitstaff were very nice which is why I'm giving this 2 stars and not 1 or zero. The salsa/pico de gallo was just awful, as was the guacamole. This made for a terrible start. My meal was ok (chorizo quesadilla) but the rest of the family's meals were also subpar. And on top of that they were out of handful of the beers on the menu as well as one of the mixers needed for one of their specialty cocktails they were featuring. Just an overall poor experience. We were up there for a night and couldn't have been more disappointed. Highly recommend you DO NOT go there (which stinks for the waitstaff but who wants lousy food on vacation). read more

Overall I thought it was a nice restaurant. As others have said it might be a little bit overpriced, but everything in the York downtown area is the same. I was very happy with my burrito. It was a nice change from a normal make your own burrito walk in restaurant and was toasted which made it a nice change. Heard the burrito bowls and the nachos are also very good. It is a great place to come for drinks. They had many choices. With a nice indoor and outdoor seating areas it is a great place for small or large groups. The staff was pretty good. They were mostly new very young kids that did try their best to make everyone happy. read more

Probably won't return for lunch or dinner. Just drinks and apps because it's across from the beach. Lunch was not good today. First we tried ordering 3 different drinks and they didn't have the ingredients. We ordered chicken fajitas and for $16.99 came with 4 paltry pieces of chicken and the 5 pepper slices were thin and tiny. And the rice on the side was barely warm and dried out. Also ordered a chicken burrito and it was cold. The Mexican street corn tasted like canned corn not fresh grilled corn yuck. read more

This place was great the first time we ate here but the second time was horrible! We will never return to this place that is for sure. The food is way overpriced for what you get ($1 extra for tortilla chips b/c you only get 4 1/2 chips with your burrito with a side of water with tomatoes and cilantro called salsa). Mmm and we just love the stale soggy corn tortilla that holds the water down salsa shrimp taco filling. Yes, that is sarcasm. We will not be coming back here again that's for sure. read more

Annual vacations to ME were never complete without a 3 margarita lunch here. Things have changed. The food was not nearly as good as it used to be. The drinks were watery and generic. The service was good, but the place has lost it's fun, flair and flavor read more

Save your money and do not eat at Guac N Roll. The food is mediocre and overpriced. The chips were stale and the salsa lackluster.

Never been to a Mexican restaurant that doesn't give free chips and salsa..... Wasn't going to add it to my meal on principle because it was $5 for chips but I did anyway and they were awful and thick and just disgusting. So we sent them back and the waitress had a bit if an attitude tone about it.. But whatever. The fajitas were probably the worst I've ever had but I love fajitas so they still seemed good. ;) read more

Late lunch here this week. Waitstaff was blah, food was even worse. Hard to mess up Mexican, but they've manage to do it with stale tortillas and overly seasoned salsa (how is that even possible). The only thing that was remotely edible was my son's cheese quesadilla. read more

B.Y.O. Chips and Salsa After 15 mins of waiting for our waitress to take our drink order, and perusing the small menu, we were served a small portion of poor quality food. The only thing that rivaled the disappointment of seeing grocery store Mexican cheese in a restaurant burrito was seeing the bill. Poor service, poor quality, expensive. Don't be fooled like we were. (Also, have you ever heard of a Mexican restaurant that makes you pay for the chips and salsa? I hadn't either till Guac and Roll.) read more

Our server was great! She was very pleasant and attentive...getting us water's before needing to ask, bringing extra salsa (which is pretty mild but plenty of hot sauce on the table to spice it up). The margarita list is vast. I ordered a Mango Margarita on the rocks which was a bit pricey for $9 but very yummy and had a strong mango flavor. I would go back to try the other ones on the list. For my main dish I got the Fish Deeelish Burrito and boy was it delicious. The burritos are packed with flavor. I would come back for that dish. Overall, I was happy with my visit and will be going back again. read more

Got seated outside, party of six. Five minutes later told there was a party waiting for this table. Went inside to wait for another table, four people were then seated at the outside table. Took an inside table since outside had a wait now. Won't be back...not worth the aggravation. read more

It's so sad that I'm even writing this, but I'm doing so in hopes the manager/owners see this and decide to take some things away from it. Upon entering the restaurant the hostess is plain rude and not welcoming whatsoever.. the two margaritas we got were the worst I've ever tasted- tasted like toilet water which is so unfortunate, you can tell they use $2 bottom shelf tequila- at least have a decent house sour mix to make up for the shit tequila you're gonna use.. Then we order guac and chips this place is called "guac and roll" so you think the guac would be amazing.. but it was mashed avocado and onions slapped in a plastic cup- no salt, no cilantro and no lime NO FLAVOR. Presentation of food looks better at McDonald's .... Chips were the only decent thing there probably because they don't make them. I ordered a taco salad, which was served to me with CHUNKS of burnt rice that were crunchy and hard, couldn't even eat it, topped with a giant serving of refried beans and lettuce, the most unflavored taco salad I have EVER tasted and the rice that was served to me was UNACCEPTABLE I can't even believe the chef literally looked over the CHUNKS of dark brown burnt WHITE rice, I couldn't even believe what I saw. The burrito was some concoction of creamed chicken and rice, again no flavor and not even edible, the whole thing was white inside, and again, talk about absolutely horrific presentation. Everything here has absolutely no flavor. Im totally a tex mex girl and I've had some lack luster Mexican food that was still good, but this shit we got served wasn't even edible, not to mention the prices they try charging. this was just simply an insult to every other Mexican joint or there. Get a chef who is passionate about cooking and actually flavors their food and cares enough not to send out chunky 4 day old rice and guacamole from the freezer.. plate your stuff with love, don't slap it on the plates just to get it out fast.. manager was so weirdly calm like he's heard these complaints many times before and I will say he took care of our bill without any issues. It's sad because it's a prime location that could really be a gem and stand out as a hopping tex mex joint but unfortunately this place completely sucks and needs new staff and a chef that can actually cook and plate food. Food quality and liquor quality needs to be more than shit you found in a dumpster. I'm hoping this place makes a turnaround and takes all these reviews into consideration cause it could be a real sweet Mexican spot if everything changes- if no changes are made hopefully someone will just replace it with Chipotle :) read more

Overpriced. Way, way overpriced. Less than mediocre tasting food. Small portions. HOW CAN THEY POSSIBLY NOT GIVE YOU CHIPS AND SALSA. Shameful. Sure wish we'd read reviews before dropping $85 bucks on a 'meh' meal. Vacations are short, wish we could get those few hours back. read more

I love this place! I bought some discounted gift certificates last winter. This was the first winter they were open year round. Although it wasn't crowded, it was a great atmosphere. We ordered the beef burritos, which were HUGE! We ended up taking home most of it because they were so filling. They had a special $5 margarita deal and these were very big glasses, not chintzy at all. The bartender and waitress were friendly and engaging and made us want to return - we did! Several times, in fact, over the winter. They had dinner and drinks specials every day they were open. Our favorite was the fajitas for 2 for just $19.99 - this included an appetizer plus the fajitas - again, we ended up bringing some home because there was so much! It was delicious! Now that summer and the tourists are in town, it's alway packed, so we haven't gone back. But as soon as Labor Day comes, we'll be back, for sure. read more

My teen would give this restaurant a higher rating, she made sure we planned on returning this year as we have the past two years. There is a significant premium paid for the close proximity to the beach. I enjoyed everything I ate and have not noticed any changes over the three years we have been eating here. I agree the chips and salsa should be free, but price was clear in menu. I would add a star if the prices were lower, I think with proper expectations one can have a pleasant meal here. read more

We stopped by on Saturday night of Labor Day weekend. We should have know to keep moving when it appeared it was the only spot not packed. We got to sit outside, which was nice, but right next to us was a full bus bucket with dirty smelly dishes. We ordered buffalo wings and a taco salad. How someone could mess up those two dishes so badly is beyond me. The taco salad was just lettuce, unseasoned rice, and refried beans straight from the can. The buffalo wings were fatty and poorly dressed for which we paid $9 for 8 wings. So overpriced, honestly it should have been free it was so bad. It was obvious that they were understaffed but the hostess always had time to check her phone. We tipped our waiter accordingly because he was hustling, can't blame him for the "chef's" mistake. Please never go to Guac n Roll. (2 stars because we liked our waiter) read more

This new place is great. While visitng for a weekend we stopped in twice. Decor is great; bright and cute and a little quirky. Food was good and consistent while prices are pretty decent. Mixed drinks were delicious! Try the jalepeno margarita or the muchacha sucia! The service was great too. Seemed great for families or anyone else. Fun atmosphere and worth a try. read more

Just had a fun lunch here. Not sure why the negative reviews. Listen, it's Mexican in Maine. ... Not California or Texas. The guacamole was tasty, the corn tortillas authentic, the produce on everything crisp and fresh. Good service as well. read more

Took my three teenagers to Guac-n-Roll after a hot day on the beach. Even though it was 6:45p on a busy summer Friday night, we were seated right away, unlike the party of five just before us who were told it was a 20-minute wait. Our friendly waitress came over to take our drink order relatively quickly. My kids gave her their order, and I was still deciding what I wanted and told her to bring their drinks while I decided, and she said, "I can bring you some water while you're making your choice," which I thought was very professional and thoughtful. When she returned with the kids' drinks, I asked the waitress if the sangria was good, and she said she preferred the peachy-tasting white a little more than the fruit punchy-tasting red, but I chose the red because I like sweeter drinks. She brought my red sangria ($8) quickly, but I found that it tasted like just a glass of red wine (a lime, lemon and cherry topped the wine glass) and, as I told the waitress, was not "fruity" enough for me . We started off with ordering chips, salsa and guac ($11, expensive when chips and salsa in most Mexican restaurants I frequent are complementary). They were tasty enough albeit not a huge serving considering the price. Three out of four of us ordered a Sombrero salad (mixed greens, smoky black beans, red rice, roasted corn, tomato, and queso blanco with honey lime dressing. served in a tortilla bowl, $10.50 each). One of my sons wanted a BLT sandwich and not a BLT salad as described on the menu, but our resourceful waitress said they could do a BLT in a wrap for him, which he agreed. When our dinners came in a timely fashion, my son's BLT wrap with a side of fries ($9) looked good, and he said he enjoyed it. The three Sombrero salad eaters were at first impressed by the size of the large tortilla bowl shell. The fancy mixed greens (frisee, arugula, and who knows what else) were on top with the corn, tomato and cheese just underneath. After eating some of the greens off the top, the rice and beans were surprisingly warm. While I didn't mind the fanciness of the greens, my two other teens didn't particularly care for them, but my daughter said it also could have been that she didn't care for the dressing. They both enjoyed the shell ("the best part of the whole salad"), but really didn't touch much of the salad in general, even though they usually love salad. There was a good amount of rice and beans at the bottom of my salad, but I filled up on tortilla chips earlier to eat too much rice and beans. In the meantime, I gave up working on my sangria and opted for a frozen "Pom-Pom-Pow" Margarita ($12), a pomegranate martini with a sugar rim. This drink hit the spot, because of the heat of the day and that it was cold and refreshing. The restaurant's decor and ambiance are appropriately modern Mexican, colorful and casual. There is a bar on one side with a TV or two for sports viewing. While half of us were not thrilled with our meals, the other half was satisfied. The bill came to $86.74, which was a bit steep for one appetizer (which should be free in the first place), four dinners, three limitless sodas (which the waitress kept refilling without even asking) and two cocktails. We left the efficient waitress a nice tip, so it came to just over $100 for a dinner for four. Not outrageous, but not a deal for what we got either. I will probably return to Guac-n-Roll the next time I'm in York, but I'll go with adults and send the kids to the pizza shop around the corner. read more

Very disappointed!! Stopped here with the family after driving several hours to York. We were starving and thought this place would be family friendly. It was NOT! Kids menu was a joke and they were not willing to make any adjustments. We weren't asking for anything out of the ordinary and waitress not friendly or accommodating. Adding any meat to the kids choices would have made them more expensive than the regular menu items which were already extremely over priced! We were expecting higher prices for a resort town at high season but this was ridiculous for the little amount of food you get and the poor quality. We will not be eating here again! read more

My salad was super delicious. My husband's burrito was just OK and my daughter's enchilada was not so great. The atmosphere at the outside tables was very cute. Wait staff a little slow. read more

The food here was decent but way overpriced. I would expect to pay a bit more in a tourist location, but this was a bit ridiculous. Also, the kids menu did not even have a basic taco on it which is strange at a Mexican restaurant in a vacation area. All in all, food was good but we probably won't return because of the price point. read more

Wish I read reviews first. If you like that cheese in the pumps at gas stations, then you'll by Happy. Food was pretty bad. Nachos looked awesome when they went by so I ordered. They looked great but I was puzzled by the pile of what looked like cheese whiz in the corner. Then I realized there was a tiny bit of real cheese on the top and underneath it was covered with this liquid cheese. Not only did it taste terrible it made the chips all soggy. I asked why and they said that's what people want! ... Ordered MEXICAN CORN. I sent it back. It was a bowl of boiled corn with mayonnaise on top and some sprinkled chili powder. I'm not kidding--i asked and they said that's what it was!! My friend didn't eat hers either .... My friends walked around after but I had to go back to my room to use the bathroom! Then I realized two other people came back for the same reason! .... Lastly, drinks were tasty, but no alcohol. They poured out of their own bottle. I was on the beach all day and was starving when I got there and didn't even get a buzz. Cute venue, but don't waste your time. UPDATE: it's the next day and we should be at the beach but a few people can't stray far from a bathroom. read more

This is center of town with few dining options. Flavorless, soul-less food. I used to think burritos were a no-brainier. Food was safe/fine but eat for sustenance rather than flavor. Call ahead. Order for take-out and eat on the beach. Only get kid's menu for age 3 and under due to small portion sizes. read more

The food simply isn't very good. It seems like low quality ingredients. The BLT Nachos has what appeared to be cheese wiz and the bacon was more like bacon bits. The meat from steak fajitas tasted like steak ums. Oh and the air conditioner was broken and it got really warm in there. The service was good though. read more

Service is good. That's about it. THEY CHARGE FOR CHIPS AND SALSA!! This place is over priced. The kitchen area, which you have to walk through on your way to restrooms, is dirty. You can feel the grime under your feet. Very small, limited menu. Kids mac n cheese is 1/4 of a Kraft box, for $6. Go elsewhere. tourist trap. read more

We went for lunch. The food was good but not great. I ordered shrimp fajitas, expecting some nice grilled shrimp. Nope. The veggies were grilled but the shrimp were plain cooked shrimp, with no color or seasoning of any kind. They might have been boiled, who knows. My mother-in-law's steak fajita was much better than mine. The kids ordered Tacos. My daughter loved the chicken taco and ordered another. My son ate the steak taco but didn't really enjoy it. Please do parents a favor: put a hamburger on the kids menu. Some kids just aren't adventurous eaters, and a burger gives them a safe option while everyone else can try whatever they want. read more

I wish I could give negative stars. The food was over priced and disgusting. My sons mouth was on fire from inedible spicy chicken. There were unidentifiable beans served and all food came out on pans. The vegetable fajitas appeared to be microwaved canned vegetables with a huge pile of "chorizo soy" that was horrible. Go to Woodys Pizza now! read more

I recently took the trip up to York beach maine to visit some family and friends and got caught in traffic in short sands upon leaving the beach. I was starving so i tried what seems to be the new Mexican spot in town, Guac N Roll. Upon entering i was greeted and sat at the bar, where i was really stoked on the extensive tequila selection, (cabo wabo!). Being famished i ordered a fish burrito right away, IT WAS AWESOME. and before i go into detail, i have eaten fish burritos all over baja california and the east coast. Most burritos have too much of something or you are stuck with a mess due to poor rolling skills. This pescatarian feast, had amazing thoughtful ingredients (cudos to whomever came up with the BAJA sauce!!!), and didnt break the bank. After checking out the eclectic decor and a few PBRs later, I was back on my way, pleased, Full, and eager to come back. thank you Guac 'N' Roll for being a tasty alternative in a rather dismal fried seafare and taffy candy jungle, (short sands). read more

There are so many negative things I can write about my experience tonight at Guac-N-Roll, but for the sake of time (since I wasted so much of my time there already) I will be concise: it's awful. The food was sub-par. The wings were good, a bit over priced but that's to be expected for the location. But the $14 nachos, $16+ quesadilla, and $10 chips & salsa were overpriced garbage. Go to the Hannaford down the street and make your own for a fraction of the price. We also waited a solid 40+ minutes for an order of nachos, and yet the cheese remained unmelted. We were then charged extra for an entree so blatantly that it was almost funny. When we brought this to our servers attention, he was so rude about it, that I'm still unsure of how to react. He actually asked us if we wanted him to remove the extra charge or not... Who trains these people? The service was also ridiculously bad. The hostess outside had no idea what she was doing. We asked for a wait time and she literally looked at us, turned towards the interior of the restaurant, said "ten minutes" and then walked away. Did not even ask for our name or anything. Also, the servers need to be better prepared to deal with........wait for it!......split checks. Apparently that is an idea that is foreign to them, as we had to explain multiple times we wanted two checks instead of one. Very complicated stuff, I know. Maybe a new training video should be underway! Also, besides being overcharged, the server (a young man) kept calling everyone "honey" at our table. It was cute at first, but soon became quite condescending after the 50th time. Save yourself the time: go anywhere else. read more

Great place for some tasty avocado treats. Great service as well. I recommend the moo taco. A little expensive, but that's York.

Always a nice surprise to find fresh, tasty, vegetarian friendly food in a tourist town. The soy joy taco with soy chorizo was delicious.

Great options for vegetarians. Outdoor seating a plus. Prices are reasonable.

So when we first walked by this place, we turned our noses up. Being from California, we figured there was no way there could be anything edible described as "Mexican" on this side of the country. But after a few days of lobster this, steamas that, I actually had to Yelp search "salad" to add some vegetables and such to my system. Strangely, this place was on the list. "Mexican"? Not sure I could say that. Not even tex-mex, though the husband liked his healthier-than-home chicken burrito. But good? Oh yes. As mentioned above, I'm no vegetarian, but I think cheffie has more than a passing acquaintance with vegetarian cuisine. I ordered the COOOOOOOLLLLLL salad with all sorts of saladey things, including corn which I usually avoid. You could also add meats for extra, and one of the meat options was "grilled vegetables." Yay. MUCH better than expected. It was a bowl of health. The corn was sliced off the cob, so it was almost the best part. The dressing was light and nice. The grilled veg included sweet potatoes and squash-like things. There was avocado. My body is thanking cheffie today. Margaritas were average, but average is just fine with us. Oh, and the setting was perfect - right next to the beach. Happy camper. read more

Chips are way too greasy! Had better in Tijuana! The guacamole is BLAND! Joey knuckles burrito was fabulous wife's quesadilla was oily wait service was excellent though if you want a. Quieter atmosphere compared to next door three stars for trying read more

Always a good meal and attentive staff. I very much enjoy a burrito and a few cervezas when in York. The food is always fresh and the prices reasonable for the quantity and quality of food presented. The kids menu has enough to satisfy most kids palates and there are many different beers and mixed drinks to choose from. Sit outside and watch the world walk by. read more

My wife and I eat here a few times every summer. It is a great place to sit out on the sidewalk, enjoy a nice drink, and watch people and cars go by. The food here is very good. The portion sizes are enormous! We have had very good luck with the wait staff here, and overall we are very impressed with this beachfront establishment. read more

Not sure why all of the tough reviews here. Just had a really good lunch this afternoon and it seems to be deserving of a much higher average mark. We had a table for 11, with ages ranging from 8 to 50 and everyone ordering something different. I had two different tacos (fish and bean) and both were tasty and well made. The place was clean with the expected Mexican/decor. The service was really outstanding as the waitress was attentive and pleasant while dealing with lots of questions from the table. Certainly, a place I would go again. read more

Their wings were surprisingly tasty, the quac-ranch dip/dressing, was amazing. Margaritas were excellento!!! Burrito and tacos were a little bland for our taste though read more

Looking at the menu, the food seemed really pricey. When the food arrived, we were extremely disappointed. The food was disgusting & sloppy, not at all what we were expecting or hoping. Service was mediocre. Huge disappointment & we will never be returning to this restaurant. If you like Mexican, do not come here, you will be very disappointed! read more
