Our first time here. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a house margarita each...so good we had another! Happy hour pricing is amazing...we also shared an order of loaded nachos. Maybe the best I've ever had. Great experience...great barmaid/ service, cozy and relaxing. We will be back!! read more

Love everything on the menu but their rice bowl and ensalada which are served with disappointing chopped lettuce and tasteless chicken and are very overpriced. Outside seating creates a more relaxing dining experience than dining inside a loud atmosphere. Go early to get a table. It's a very popular restaurant. read more

Imagine if you took the Chipotle concept, you had actually friendly and intelligible line servers, the ingredients were a touch better and the prices a touch cheaper. Tada! Guacamole in East Rochester. I particularly enjoyed the fact there was both fresh cilantro and identifiably fresh tortillas. The staff did not know what I meant when I said "¡Es muy sabroso!" though. ¡Que lastima! read more

The fish tacos were divine. The very berry margarita was a fruit salad. Bartenders can educate you on the different tequilas, their aging process and the colors. Now I know why its so busy. read more

Limited menu and not very much room inside the restaurant. Food is good and service decent too. Not first choice in Mexican because prices are hefty. read more

Another hidden gem for ER. This place serves Chipotle style, but don't let that fool you, Guacamole is legit. Fresh ingredients always. The protein options are way more flavorful than the previously mentioned chain restaurant, and much higher quality. Plus, churros. I mean, who doesn't like churros? My favorite: the burrito, with cochinita pibil, black beans, a variety of toppings and most importantly guacamole. I need everyone to know about Guacamole so I can ensure that they stay open forever. Truly delicious food, made by great people, at great prices. Plus, you get to support a local business while you're eating the best burrito you've ever had. read more

We loved the original take out in East Rochester and finally had time for a visit to the new location in Penfield. The is no longer a take out option which is sad. The food is as tasty and fresh as it was from the original location which was great! Unfortunately it was disappointing to see the portions are smaller and instead of all the toppings you could have at the original location you are limited to 3. Any additional toppings are a $3 up charge. I certainly didn't get $3 worth of cilantro, lol! My husbands bowl was much smaller and without all of the usual toppings it did taste differently. Not sure if we will return as there are Mexican places with more options and better portions at reasonable prices. The other downside was the noise level inside. Do not go here if you want to talk to your friends at the table without shouting. read more

Great service and great food one of the best taco spots around would highly recommend

The food was exceptional! The food came out so fast it and a tasted so fresh. The waiter was so kind and the service was very good. The greater on the other hand when you walk in was a moody teenager that doesn't know what they are doing. She told us that the wait will be around 10 minutes and it ended up being 30! The atmosphere was awesome it was filled with Mexican cuisine and culture. Overall must go to! PLEASE DO IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!! read more

Definitely one of my favorite spots for quick Mexican. This jam is always fresh and delicious and the staff is super friendly. Options include burritos, 3 tacos, tortas, salad, or plate (burrito bowl). Meats include al pastor, carne asada, grilled chx, pulled pork, ground beef, and vegetarian. Tacos are typically street style on 2 corn tortillas which is a nice way to try the various meats. The burritos are excellent... Very filling and they usually give you quite a bit of meat. The tortas were good but the bread they use is a little harder than what I'm used to. Overall this place is super fresh every time. I will definitely continue to come back here on the reg. read more

Great fish tacos and margaritas!! The outside dining is nice and the staff is super friendly.

I saw this restaurant on Facebook and wanted to try it. I'm vegetarian and wasn't sure how it would be for me, but then I saw reviews on here that said guacamole was free on the veggie, so I decided to give it a try. Parking was easy. I went in the middle of the day, but there was a lot next door too, so I don't think it would ever be an issue. It's setup a lot like Chipotle, and I ordered a Mexican plate which is like a burrito bowl. The Pico was very good. It was mostly tomato, which I prefer, and the guacamole was very good, and I got a nice big scoop of it. The sour cream was in a squeeze bottle, which isn't my preference, but they were generous with it. It's very small and I got it to go. If I go again, I'll get a dish for my husband and he can try the meat. The two staff were very friendly and had a conversation with me. I would definitely go again if I'm on that side of town. :) read more

Went on a Friday night, the service was quick and friendly. Food was delicious! We'll definitely return.

Had a wonderful experience. Food was delicious and prices were reasonable. Only complaints were minor in nature

Great little place for fresh Mexican. Seating is limited. Staff is friendly. Go for the steak taco and add the guacamole. It's worth it! read more

Guacamole - Three different meat tacos! - Tacos Near Me - Rochester, New York

This place was great!!! So cute and quaint! My friend and I very much enjoyed the tacos and the portions were a good size and definitely kept us full! We went at 7 on a Saturday and I was expecting it to be busier, but it wasn't!! Which is always a plus!!! The employees there were super kind and friendly as well!! Made it very easy to order!! [just letting y'all it's definitely like a Moe's or Chipotle, the idea of picking everything you want (meat, cheese, beans, salsa) and just being charged extra for guac] Definitely will be going back again!!! read more

Guacamole - 3 Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Rochester, New York

On Friday (9/30/22) we had a very nice experience at Guacamole, Tacos and Margaritas. The service was spot-on. We, party of three all enjoyed our dining experience. My burrito was large but was heavy on rice and light on chicken. The flavor was very good, but the small amount of chicken was noticable and a bit disappointing. The rest of our orders were exceptional. This place is definitely worth visiting and the wait staff are all kind and professionals. read more

Great food and margaritas. Highly reccomend!! Cozy bar room and nice outdoor patio area.

All around great job! Delivery was on time and the food was great as always! My wife and I both had the Mexican Plates Plenty for diner and a bit left over. Spiced just right for us both! Love this place! read more

I was looking so forward to going to this restaurant and was so disappointed!!! The food was tasteless and the Margaritas were water down!!! For the cost it was not worst it!!! Don't waste your time! I was so upset I wished I would of said something!! read more

Great service and the food is delicious. Be sure to get the appetizer with queso, salsa and guacamole with chips! Tacos are tasty and the salads are fresh. A gem of a restaurant in Penfield. read more

What a pleasant surprise. Food was soooo good that I logged into my yelp account just to recoiled it. Also super nice people works here, all together making the place the perfect local place. If you are into good fresh tacos, check it out. I find it hard to believe someone will get dis pointed here. I'm sure it will get very busy soon if they will continue to be that good. read more

Legit flavors and food! Haven't stepped foot in a Chipotle, Moe's, or Mesa Grande since coming here.

Great dinner ~ daughter was in town & she especially loves Mexican cuisine so we gave this new place a try! Surely did not disappoint & it was packed with many happy diners! We will certainly go back! read more

Excellent in every way! I just hope this much-needed Mexican restaurant and bar stays at this location in Penfield for years and years to come! read more

A seriously awesome place for lunch and conveniently located close to fisher! They even offer student discounts and free meals for frequent diners. Whenever I come I always get the tacos. I will say it is the closest thing to a taqueria that I will probably ever get in Rochester. Personally I think the tortillas they use are too big for the amount of meat they use but it is still tasty nonetheless. Their chips are Limey? Very chipotle esque. As for their churros, I found them to be way too long and the dipping sauce was too thick, making it hard to scoop up the chocolate sauce and caramel. They would be easier to eat if the pieces were shorter. As others have stated, guacamole is a play on chipotle or moes where you pick what you want taco/burrito/burrito bowl, your meats, and your toppings. Another thing I do like about guacamole is that they have fresh jalapeños! read more

I admittedly had a cold and my brain wasn't working so well, that being said....the menu confused me. There are dishes listed and then "options" without prices and then more "options" with prices, and then accompaniments/garnishes; some with prices and some without. I asked for clarification and the lady behind the counter tried to tell me but the fan and music in the background prevented me from hearing her soft spoken voice. To the rescue comes ta da the manager man...... I think. Either way, he was very knowledgeable and helpful, he answered questions and offered additional information. Being a pain in the guacamole (having come with someone who says "Salsa, that's spicy, what are you trying to do kill me?" I'm pretty sure the only salsa related slaying almost happened right then) I asked for sauces and garnish on the side and they were so polite about it. I'll come back when I can jalapeño up my food. Tried their torta with cochinita pibil (a pulled/shredded kind of pork) which was described as resembling a panini. It was intriguing and I'd definitely have another. Equally delicious the day after. Three tacos chicken, al pastor and carne asada. I think the carne asada was my favorite. Everything was tender and had a distinct flavor. Their red salsa was kind of smokey. The pico fresh. Their green salsa tasted a bit off to me. When I mentioned it the manager tasted it, explaining when and how they make it. He thought too much lime was the culprit, thanked me for the feedback and brought out some homemade churros with caramel sauce. I've never bothered to order churros, these were delicious! The place is small and clean and bright (the restroom too). read more

Went to the new place and was very impressed. They are not taking reservations, so get there early. The margaritas were first rate and we all had food we enjoyed. The fish tacos and rice bowl were our favorites. Good, friendly service. We will be back! read more

Super political bar. Libs. Young bartender put my order in and didn't want to walk back to the kitchen to add cilantro to my order. Then talks all about how some people don't recycle and how crazy they are while using the word "like" non stop. Is "valley girl" making a come back? Food came out quick but very average. Music selection (not live) was very good, if you're into classic rock and roll. read more

Went here because I saw good things on yelp... The guy behind the counter greeted us immediately. He was very nice and informative but didn't rush us, which I appreciated a lot. He explained the choices to us and made recommendations. I ended up getting Al Pastor tacos with corn tortillas. They were great. Not anything to blow my mind, the meat could've been a little hotter. BUT, for tacos in this neck of the woods I will definitely be back. The guacamole, however, WAS mind blowing. Too often, restaurants hand out old, lacking guacamole. Not this place! I was sooo flavorful & fresh. The drink selection was pretty deceNt. Sodas, beers, water bottles, etc. I can't wait to try the tortas next time. The only thing I'd like to see is fish on the menu or maybe as a special? All in all it was an awesome experience. read more

I went here with a few friends last Friday and was not disappointed. I ordered the tacos and everything tasted fresh and delicious. I also tried the guava soda and it's officially my new favorite nonalcoholic drink. I didn't try the churros but I'm definitely ordering them next time. A customer in front of us raved about them nonstop during our wait. My only recommendation is that the restaurant ensure the meat is hot when it's served. By the time I sat down, which took less than a minute, my food was cold. Nonetheless, it was delicious. I'll be back for the churros soon...mark my words. read more

Guacamole - Salad. Fresh and flavorful. - Tacos Near Me - Rochester, New York

In town for an event, we found Guacamole on Yelp. Cute little place with yummy food. It's summer and the inside of the restaurant is HOT, so we choose to sit at their outside tables. All five of us ordered the Mexican plate which is essentially a burrito bowl. I had a vegetarian version and had to try their guacamole on it. So yummy! Happy to support a local place while on vacation! (Parked down the street in the free town parking lot) read more

I've been to this restaurant 5 times already. It is authentic Mexican with a twist. You pick from the ingredients for your tacos or burritos. There are about 5 kinds of meat to choose from and a bunch of veggies and cheese. The burritos are so big they are a meal in themselves. The food quality is outstanding. They also have a Mexican plate which I tried. It's ok if you want to try a bunch of stuff. Gareth is the owner and will greet you with a smile and a thank you I guess the only thing I would want is a few more menu items and maybe some hard shell choices. Overall it's fantastic read more

Delicious food! All the veggies they had tasted super fresh and the guacamole was amazing. The Al Pastor had so much flavor and was tender. The order of churros had 3 of them, and fairly large so a good amount for the price. Would 10/10 recommend read more

I LOVE Mexican food as a So Cali transplant. Finally tried Guacamole. Food as pretty good (4star). But in phase 2 of the pandemic, only 1 in 4 employees was wearing a mask or wearing it correctly. And no gloves were being used although she was using her hands to make the burritos. Gloves have been REQUIRED for over 15 years in our county to protect against Hepatitis A or B. Really? Sorry but I am not returning. Improve your hygiene. read more

The BEST authentic Mexican cuisine is hiding in East Rochester! The aroma of roasted pork and chiles and steamed corn tortillas fills the air. The addition of steak, chicken, ground beef, veggies plus three distinctly different salsas all together makes it clear there is something here for everyone. I got three tacos -- Al Pastor Pork, Cochinita Pibil Pork and Picadillo Beef. The chips and homemade guacamole is very simple but yields very clean flavors and overall is a satisfying snack by itself or an add-on to any meal. Two flavorful refreshing drinks are also available here. One being Tamarind Fresca. I hear it's great when mixed with orange juice. The storefront and dining area is inviting and clean. The staff at this taquiera is very friendly and eager to answer questions about their food. You can tell they are proud of what they serve. Please do yourselves a favor by filling up your belly and supporting this local business! read more

Guacamole - Tacos Near Me - Rochester, New York

I am only giving this place one star and that's because the mojito was good. The rest is a waste of time and more importantly your money! They charge for chips for the table. They won't say they do but they only come when you buy the salsa or guacamole. The guacamole was okay but the chips are not homemade. My dish was explained as a fajita type and you construct it yourself. I am familiar but the steak in my dish could have been anything. There was zero flavor and the only other item in the so-called fajita was beans and they were cold. We asked that no cilantro be added to the dishes ordered. My friend's tacos had thick layer of cilantro on the top of the meat in each taco. We returned it to the kitchen. New plate comes out. No cilantro but now has flour tortillas and not the corn she ordered. We mentioned this to the waitress who did offer to return the order to the kitchen but by this time she would be eating alone. I told the waitress we did not like the food and she promptly brought the check. Nothing taken off the check even though we sent the plates back mostly full. I explained as we left that I would write this review and plan to share this awful experience with anyone that will listen. Save your money. Rochester has good restaurants and this is not one of them. read more

Not bad! Their namesake ingredient is pretty good. The guacamole in my veggie burrito was terrific, and there was enough of it to be noticeable. I've been burned by other local places that charge extra for that, only for you to barely notice that it's there. The tortillas are good too. Dinged one star for two reasons. One, the massive quantity of rice in the burrito. To be clear, it wasn't a normal sized burrito that had too much rice and virtually nothing else. The other ingredients were all present in good quantities, but there was just so much rice that the burrito was a little too big and off-balanced. Second, the restaurant forgot our side order. We weren't going to make a special trip back to go get it, and it seemed to take a while for them to find our order and get it sorted. But they did make it right in the end by refunding the missing item, so credit where credit is due. read more

SO YUMMY!! BEAUTIFUL PLACE!! telling all my friends to go here!! #live laugh guacamole

We hired Guacamole to cater our cheerleading banquet and WOW, it was great. Food arrived on time, hot and delicious! Everyone was impressed with the Mexican Fiesta. They brought everything we needed to feed our crowd of 40 people. I highly recommend Guacamole for your next event. You won't be disappointed! read more
