Outstanding service! Super friendly! Good recommendations! (Their menu is substantial.) Hot, fresh, self-serve tortilla chips, to start. My Carnitas Burrito Bowl was sizable and had all the good stuff and plenty of it. Full meal size, for sure. The carnitas was tasty and moist, and not dried out. Plenty of indoor seating, clean, and plentiful parking in the shopping center lot. I'll be back, for sure! read more

We found this nice Mexican restaurant while passing through Atascadero. The restaurant is quite spacious, staff if super friendly and helpful, and food was delicious! We ordered the La Parrilla carne asada burrito, chips and salsa. The portion was large and very filling. They have a salsa bar, and chips are nice and hot. We will make sure to stop by again when in the area. Happy Now Nom! read more

My friends and I popped in here for a quick bite and initially were overwhelmed because the menu has so many good options. The service was nice and helped narrow it down, I got the barbacoa quesabirria and my friends got a burrito and a chicken quesadilla. Honestly the standout was their quesadilla, it was so yummy. Cute little ambiance inside as well, I'd go back to get a quesadilla! read more

Casual spot for Mexican food with both indoor/outdoor seating and a salsa bar! My friend and I were looking for a quick and filling dinner spot after spending the day nearby at Morro Bay, and La Parrilla was perfect! We came by Friday evening around 7 pm and it wasn't too crowded. They offer all the standard Mexican dishes, from burritos to tacos to tortas, etc. I got a shrimp burrito for $13.95, and my friend got a grilled chicken super burrito for $13.95. While we waited for our burritos, we helped ourselves to the complimentary chips and salsa from the salsa bar. We didn't have to wait long though, since our food came out pretty quickly. My burrito was super solid. I really appreciate that they packed it full of delicious buttery shrimp. My friend's burrito was okay... his grilled chicken was honestly pretty bland. I tried a couple bites and like my shrimp burrito more. Also, the tortillas they use here are MASSIVE. We saw them making them through the kitchen window, and they were some of the largest tortillas I've ever seen. Because of this, there was a lot of extra folded tortilla in my burrito. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a good Mexican meal in Atascadero! read more

La Parilla is one of our 2 favorite Mexican places in A-Town, with the other being Suprema. La Parilla stands out for its unique menu items / recipes, high quality ingredients, and preparation. The Carne en Su Jugo soup is out of this world delicious! This seems weird to say, but their rice is amazing, with a delicious topping that I've never seen at any other Mexican place. I usually get the fajitas, which is a very generous portion (2 meals including leftovers). Take a look at their Mojarra Frita! The wife had it once and really enjoyed it. We really should try this place more often, and their specialidades. This place always has seating available and futbol on TV. Plus beer! We highly recommend La Parilla read more

We are not from the area at all, and now I know what it means when people from California say there isn't good Mexican food in the US, except in California. Our meal here was fantastic. We were there at lunch, and the place was hopping. I picked it out online because it had a salsa bar. I ordered off the a la carte menu and got two cheese enchiladas with verde sauce. This was not just green salsa, it was their pork verde. It.was.amazing! I am embarrassed at how fast I ate it all. I forgot to take a picture even. Super cheesy, excellent tortillas and the verde; oh that verde.... My partner got the torta regular with al pastor. Also sublime! In addition, we got great chips and salsa, including the avocado/ green salsa that I am going to think about for a really long time. The staff here was especially nice, super helpful and friendly. Service was quick- order at the counter and they bring it to your table. I would not hesitate for one second to return here on my next trip through Atascadero. It could not be an easier stop off 101. What a treasure. And now I am ruined for Mexican food where I live... read more

Gosh I love this place - one of my favorite authentic Mexican restaurants in North county. They also have a location in Arroyo Grande! We have been here quite a few times and it never disappoints. Their chips and salsa are amazing, especially the green salsa. The chips are self serve and are always warm and crispy. We usually order the Burria tacos which are to die for. Their quesadillas are also absolutely delicious. My husband just recently got the shrimp fajitas and loved them as well.

Honest Mexican food. You order the food at the counter and they will bring it to the table. The young guy at the counter was very personable. Since this is my first time here , he was patient enough to explain me the menu. He also adjusted a few things to accommodate my vegan diet. He also suggested a few things to make it a more gratifying meal. The salsa bar had many options. The freshly made salsas were very distinct in taste and flavorsome. Prices are moderate. I also saw that this place was full of people, which is why we decided to give it a try and we were not disappointed This is exactly the hospitality you would expect in a little beach town.

Last minute decision to stop by for lunch on a roadtrip home. The Yelp reviews did not steer us wrong. Everything was delicious. We also ended up ordering too much, but we took home the excess for lunch the next day. We had a birria "pizza" (turned out it was more like an extra large quesadilla) but it was delicious, lots of tender tasty meat and cheese and consume to dip in. Also got the supreme nachos, so good. This fed 5 of us! So the burrito got packed up for later (and yes it was good the next day)! They had some outdoor tables and plenty of space inside. Clean restrooms, welcoming staff. This location was pretty easy to find right off the freeway as well. read more

I had a great meal at La Parrilla in Arroyo Grande so when I noticed that another location is Atascadero I detoured to go for lunch. I was disappointed in the Atascadero location. I order the samething, mullita de barbacoa and it wasn't as good. The meat didn't taste fresh and the inside of the tortillas was soupy wet. The broth that came with the meal was the best thing I had. It had a nice flavor with fresh cilantro. As far as chips and salsa. There were just a few chips in the self serve (they needed to restock this and some other items in the salsa bar that were basically empty). I got medium red salsa. One bite and I threw out the salsa and chips. There was something wrong with the salsa. Had a terrible taste. I wish I noticed it also smelled off before tasting it. I have never had salsa that tasted so bad. The dining area was a bit dingy. I had planned to come here a few times over the next few days but after trying it I will not return to this location. read more

I cancelled my wedding rehearsal dinner and called up La Parrilla day of to see if they would cater something similar (build your own taco kind of trays) they said ABSOLUTELY. We were able to pick up our trays for a fraction of the price chipotle was going to charge and 100% better quality and love. Thank you so so much for accommodating our party last minute.

Ambiance. Not good. Feels like no one cares here. It's hot. No AC. Actually hot air was blowing into restaurant. Counter service, which I'm not a fan of. Waiting for food took too long There's a women's room but no men's. ? Beans and rice were bland. I ordered a fish and shrimp taco. Why are they using the mini taco shells. 3 tiny tacos. This wasn't disclosed. We also ordered a chicken taco plate with beans and rice, a carne asada wet burrito that my son liked, and a chicken burrito to go that was bland. Salsa bar. Why 3 mild and one hit that didn't look appetizing. The mild were good but all tasted the same and need a medium option. I will not be back. Not a good experience and on a 109 degree day we don't want to dine in a hot stuffy room. read more

Food and service is pretty darn good. I had the carne asada plate with the ceviche. The price was excellent, and the carne asada met expectations. The ceviche was excellent. It was covered in chamoya sauce, which apparently I've never had. It looks like it would be way overwhelmingly flavorful, but it was actually the perfect combination of shrimp and sauce. They came around with some samples ofi flan, and I was immediately sold. It was darn tasty. There's convenient parking and the seating inside the restaurant is well spaced. This is one of those places that I would definitely come back to. read more

So in all fairness, I can't review this place too much. They had a very extensive menu with burritos, taquitos, tacos, etc. I wasn't very hungry, so I ordered two soft tacos with Carnitas. The service was fine. They took my order right away and it was ready pretty quick as I took it to go. I guess I should've gotten some of their salsa which they had plenty to choose from. I definitely will go back and review it probably a little differently if I eat there. The place was well lit, and had lots of tables, although I love booths. read more

We were given a buzzer and were told to come to the pick up area once our buzzer goes off. We sat in the bar area since it was the quietest since we were with our 4 month old, Restaurant is super cute with western themed items throughout the place. The steakhouse burger was very good! Decent size burger and very buttery (in a good way) and the pig iron was delicious! Pulled pork was nice and tender with just the right amount of bbq sauce on there. The onion rings were nice and crispy as well and a huge serving for their full size. I'd definitely give this place a try if I'm in the area again!

The original Pig Iron was out of our price range. Their new service plan fits our budget perfectly…read more The pulled pork is so incredibly flavorful it doesn't need bbq sauce. That stated, the pulled pork sandwich is my favorite. If pork is your go-to, Pig Iron or Jeffry's in Paso are your best choices.

Tip is to go next door to Pig Iron for your drinks if the bar is too crowded at Club Car Bar. Sound system is very advanced. Nice folks working and patronizing. Order food before 8:00 (comes from Pig Iron). Plenty of street parking. A cute local spot in the former AJ Spurs (still has the safe - cool!) as well as a former post office and saddlery. Love the space, love the vibes. Cocktails were $13 - not too bad for top shelf.

If you've been living under a rock your whole life let me tell you a secret. Quesabirria tacos are the hottest thing in the foodie scene ! This restaurant markets them as barbacoa tacos . It comes with a side of hot meat juice (consome) to dip them in. Get the 3 tacos, swear you can't finish them. Also this place has a very tasty ceviche tostada . And finally I also love the California burrito Al pastor with no beans add carne asada. (This for the hungry working class out there) read more

I'm so glad there's finally a good burrito restaurant in Atascadero. The chip and salsa bar is so good. The Pic de gallo and all the other salsas. It goes so well with the food. The burrito is wrapped up nice and tight, not like other places where it falls apart. You can actually run a marathon with there burritos and it won't fall apart. I will refer all my peeps. read more

Best food and service anywhere in the county! I just was killing time for an appointment and just got chips and salsa and a drink. The service for my little snack was so great! The salsa bar is amazing. I was observing all the delicious looking entrees on the menu and got some wonderful food to go as well. Thank you! read more

This place is off the hook. About time Atascadero has a good authentic mexican food joint. My son had the chicken burrito bowl and i had the carne asada quesadilla and boy does it put other local joints to shame. They were very very delicious the staff was very friendly well. Will definitely be coming back. read more

This is one of my favorite mexican places to eat here in the Central Coast. Their food tastes just like homemade mexican food and their salsas are actually good. I tell everyone who comes to visit in the area that if they want great mexican food this is one of the spots. read more

Everything was cooked from scratch even the tortillas! We started with guacamole and chips and you could tell she had just made it right then! Perfectly flavored. Then we moved onto breaded fish taco, shrimp taco, which were all perfectly cooked and seasoned and the tortillas were outstanding. I had the Governator, which was crisp corn tortilla, smothered in melted cheese, and then sautéed shrimp, cabbage, pico de gallo, and a green sauce. I don't think I've ever inhaled anything so fast. I had an Al Pastor Sopes, a thick, round corn dough (masa) topped with cabbage, sour cream, cotija cheese, red salsa and green salsa. The beans complimented the pork and charred pineapple perfectly. I highly recommend Taco Doña Mari - The sweet ladies cooking for you is like going home to Abuelitas kitchen.

I had a bare-breasted mermaid ("La Siren") bathing over my table. There were only two-item combos on the menu, but the owner agreed to give me just one chili relleno with rice and beans for a fair price, which was just right. It was served on a scalding-hot plate, gooey with melted cheese, and pretty good, and at a very fair price. The beans do NOT have lard in them. Warm chips and rather spicy hot sauce were served as a starter. It's a mariscos (seafood) restaurant, but I didn't have any. Are mermaids considered seafood? I've been here a couple times over the years. No Michelin stars, but solid. Bueno.

There's a meat market and a little restaurant/ to-go only no seating inside. the person behind the counter was very friendly and accommodating. He took my order and within a matter minutes, came back with my burrito, which was a lengua burrito ( tongue burrito). The burrito had beans, rice, pico de gallo, and cream. I opted with no pico de Gallo. The overall burrito was good, but I might ask for very little rice next time, however the rice and beans were good, just my opinion, there was a lot of rice. I will definitely go here again to try some of the other menu items. But you will have to try it for yourself to form your own opinion.

Tucked into the corner of a Starbucks location, this cute little spot is small but super inviting--and definitely lives up to the hype. As soon as we walked in, the place was clean and filled with the delicious smell of spices and fresh food. I ordered the chilaquiles (not listed on the menu, but they'll make it for you with your choice of meat or traditional eggs for the same price). I went with chili verde, and wow--I was not disappointed. It was loaded with meat, sauce, cheese, cilantro, onion, and sour cream. Absolutely worth the $13, and I'd 100% order it again--next time with al pastor! We also tried the chicken enchilada plate ($13), which was just as good. Great flavor, the perfect amount of sauce and cheese, and it came with rice and beans on the side. For drinks, they've got a wide selection, including alcoholic options. I grabbed a Jarritos--just a heads up, they're $3.50 each, a bit pricey, but ice cold and refreshing. Overall, this place was a hit for us. The waitress, Erma, was friendly, polite, and attentive--which, let's be honest, isn't always easy to find. The restaurant is clean, has plenty of seating, and judging by the steady flow of customers, it's definitely no secret anymore! Give it a try and see for yourself--I'm pretty sure you'll love it too. Thanks for reading! Follow me along for more hits and misses.
