10/10 as someone who really likes Mexican food This place is phenomenal from start to finish. The salsa is super tasty with a nice kick and the chips are always fresh Their menu has something to please everyone and they have a rotating daily special along with a happy hour. The staff is really friendly as well and they are well staffed which is always nice to see. The atmosphere is really nice as well inside and outside. This is a hidden gem of a place and will be our regular spot They also have an expansive tequila section and even tequila tastings if that is up your alley. Something unique I haven't seen at other places read more

I was recommended to this place by the lady who does my hair around the corner. Best Mexican I've had in a long time in the 805. I had to take a burrito home to my husband, and he also agreed it was delicious and not even greasy! We will be back from SLO! They are also fast, efficient, and friendly. Being a restaurant owner I know how much this means. Thanks for the yummy lunch! read more

Las Cazuelas Restaurant - Two crispy tacos lunch special - Mexican Near Me - Nipomo, California

Es un lugar bien chula con asientos afuera también. Uno de los mejores restaurantes mejicanos en las tri-ciudades. La comida es bien auténtica y deliciosa. Comí las sopes de carnitas y estaban llenas de carnitas, cocidas perfecta. Mi esposo tenía la combi de taco de asada y una enchilada de pollo. El se lo comió todo. El servicio estaba bien y rápido llegó la comida. No tuvimos espacio para el postre. ¡A la próxima ! It's a cute little place with outside seating. This is one of the best Mexican restaurants in the tri-city area. The food is authentic and delicious. I had the doors with carnitas that were cooked perfectly. My husband had the combo of beef taco and chicken enchilada. He loved it and finished it all. The service was great and the food came within minutes. We didn't have room for any dessert. Next time. read more

Las Cazuelas Restaurant - 1/2 eaten sope de carnitas - Mexican Near Me - Nipomo, California

Overpriced and the service is always terrible. $20 for two Chile Riano's.? They are are high

We like to stop by here when we're in town visiting family. I like their chips & salsa. I usually order the verde (green sauce) chicken enchiladas. My partner enjoys al pastor tacos. Good rice & beans, too. Comfortable atmosphere. Friendly service. It's popular with the locals for sure. read more

Came here as I was exited about getting a real margarita. Many places in area have wine margaritas but I needed something that was more potent. Had to wait about 30 minutes for a party of 5. Smaller spot but has outside patio seating it appeared. Customer service was perfect. Margaritas were solid. I had a single Cadillac that was really good flavored. Got a double jalapeño and that hit the spot. Also had beef flour flautas and they were really good. A little soft with the salsa on top but still very good flavored. Rice and beans were also very good. Definitely recommend checking this place out. I think it may be the best I've found so far in the area. read more

Food is consistently good. Ambience is OK. Unfortunately service seems to be getting worse. Even though the restaurant was not at capacity it still took a very long time to get our water (10 minutes) and our orders in (another10 minutes). Getting the check even longer. Although we requested the check several times, I still had to go to the cash register and wait 10 minutes before able to pay. It appears that phone-in and online orders receive priority over in-house customers from the servers. They need to hire someone who only handles phone-in and online orders. Disappointing experience. read more

I have not had such bad service ever. It was several minutes before car were even acknowledged needing to be seated and then she took my name down even though no one else was waiting to be seated and there were open tables. Then we waited several more minutes to be seated, which just involved them pointing to an empty table and telling us to sit there. let me wait several minutes to have our orders taken. The food did come out in a timely manner, but now it never checked on us and had to ask for the bill. The food wasn't OK but nothing special. The restaurant is nicely decorated. read more

What happened here? Haven't been back for some time but the last 2 times and again today, the service has really gone downhill. Servers walk past you as you wait to be seated...don't greet you and eventually we seated ourselves. Servers talking to others and literally ignoring you. No thanks nor recognition, no interaction and then I waited and waited to pay the bill while 3 men walked right past the register several times and never acknowledged I was there. First time in my life I did not leave a tip. Too bad, we will not be back. read more

Pictures shows you the fajitas coming right off fresh and hot. Very nice atmosphere and great service. Food had good flavor and reasonably priced. Definitely would go again. read more

Food is fantastic! Service is fantastic! BEST Mexican food in SLO County! Prove me wrong! This place never disappoints!

First time here!! A good Mexican burrito sounded like the perfect pre Dodger game fix. The place appeared to be clean with some regulars seated and enjoying their late lunch. Good signs so I decided to place my order. I ordered the burrito grande with no rice and no sour cream. I've never been a fan of either item. Made sure to confirm twice with the gal. Food was ready in a decent amount of time and I was on my way back to work, walking distance. With GREAT sadness I was met with what seemed like EXTRA rice. A true bummer. Was hoping this would be my go to place. In addition to finding some mystery pieces I will not be dining here again. For $25(18.99 burrito+tip) NOT WORTH IT. Will continue my search elsewhere. read more

May 31, 2025 and 4 of us came in for dinner. It was busy and we had to wait about 20 minutes, but they estimated 20 minutes and it was... So no complaints. And a huge thank you, as we were seated about 745pm (closing time is 8pm). We all enjoyed the chicken enchiladas!! Plenty of salsa and chips were served. One in our group actually ordered a bacon, burger and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. Unfortunately, as we had our meal and drank our beverages, we had to ask for soda and water refills. And then when we were done, I had to get up and go ask for boxes (to go/leftovers) and our check. And after waiting for our check, I had to go ask a second time. I do understand by this time it was pushing 830 with an 8 PM close time... but I would think that they would be more attentive to those still in a restaurant instead of cleaning tables (for the next day). In any case, we will definitely return ! read more

My favorite is the Chili Relleno, never disappointed! Burritos, carne asada, beans & rice, with prompt service. Also great Margarita's and more with a special variety of Taquilla's .. choose inside or eating out doors on the covered patio! read more

We drive over an hour and a half to eat here but it's so worth it. My family loves Mexican food and this one is one we drive a little extra for every once and awhile. My boyfriend can not get over how crispy the edges of the chicken tacos are. He talks about it often... My favorite is the fried cheese cake desert. There is a big parking lot which is often well filled and plenty of street parking. You probably should bring a coat since there is indoor/ outdoor seating and sometimes its a Little cold. read more

Food is good but service is terrible - arrogant and lazy. We've been here a few times but today will be our last.

One of our favorite spots for birthday dinners, date night or any occasion. Always a great experience from staff and you can't beat their food and drinks! read more

Bestie and I had dinner @ Las Cazuelas here in Nipomo for our first time and maybe not our last. We enjoyed our cocktails and the service we received from servers. We went on a BUSY Friday afternoon but waited less than 10 minutes. My friend had chile rellanos and I had some chicken enchiladas. I was a lil disappointed with my plate, they weren't authentic (my opinion). I will come back to try more cocktails they had on their menu. The restaurant gives you nice cantina vibes. read more

The service is horrible. We weren't ready to order drinks the waiter came back a couple times. We were told this is a tequila bar. The waiter brought a tequila menu tossed it on the table and walked away. Never came back. We flagged another waiter for water We waited for over 25 minutes for someone to take our order. The food was okay I guess. I wouldn't wait for this place again read more

Las Cazuelas Restaurant - The entrance - Mexican Near Me - Nipomo, California

I'm so disappointed in this place. The prices of the food are extremely high and the quality isn't the best. The thing that upset me the most is that when we where seated the bus boy was chatting with another table next to us very loudly about politics and being extremely racist and made me and my family feel really uncomfortable. We ate our food a left there very quickly and will not be returning. I get it you don't like our president and his policies but there is a time and place for those discussions. Not directly next to our table. Very rude and bad service. read more

The ***FINEST MEXICAN FOOD*** around! Absolutely! LAS CAZUELAS IS THE BEST!!! Anyone on the California Central Coast should consider themselves very fortunate to have Las Cazuelas in their vicinity. We moved from the region and find ourselves truly lost from the DELECTABLE PLEASURES served up by LAS CAZUELAS. Las Cazuelas offers the FINEST MEXICAN CUISINE!!! ***** LAS CAZUELAS ***** ***SURPASSES 5 STARS *** EXCELLENT Mexican Cuisine! EXCELLENT Service! EXCELLENT Salsa! EXCELLENT Margaritas! SUPERIOR FRESHNESS to all the ingredients! An added BONUS: Las Cazuelas is ALWAYS CLEAN! Our sincere gratitude to the GENIUS CULINARY CULTURAL MASTER CHEF for putting his heart and soul into the menu items! We will forever miss your beautiful sauces! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND anything and everything on the menu! If only all Mexican restaurants offered the same high standards ... as with our new home vicinity there are three Mexican restaurants and at best barely earn 1 & 2 stars, thus creating a void of fine Mexican food. We both agree, the #1 thing we miss about the California Central Coast is Las Cazuelas!!!! THANK YOU LAS CAZUELAS for all the dining pleasure you have shared with us. Thank you for the privilege! We dearly miss Las Cazuelas! *********************************** read more

We ordered online and did a take out. The food (burrito, tostado and enchilada) was excellent. It even came with a bag of really good tortilla chips. Wish the salsa they provided was as good! read more

I so wanted to like this place. My in laws have been coming to Nipomo the last three years to go to a local Christmas tree farm. All 12 of us will get lunch before running around the trees. On this occasion we decided to try this restaurant since grandpa likes Mexican food. Easy to get to with Yelp directions and decent parking right outside the place. We were able to get tables to accommodate all of us no problem. We arrived 15-20 mins after opening so it wasn't crowded. Orders were taken nicely and food arrived in a timely manner. The disappointment came with our food. I ordered Aguacates and shrimp. The menu read that it was lettuce topped with avocado, shrimp and pico de Gallo. Mmm, that sounded tasty and light. My plate had two measly strips of wilted lettuce, defrosted shrimp and some lame, tasteless "pico de gallo", which was a watery tomato soup with some wilted cilantro and NOT fresh diced tomato. The waiter brought me Tapatio so I smothered it to try and get some flavor. My husband ordered a wet burrito and asked if he could have pico on the side. Waiter told him they had no pico.... Mmmm, my plate had some as tasteless as it was. So my husband asked for diced tomatoes, they said they didn't have any, he asked for diced onions only to be told that they couldn't give him any because it was for the menudo for the rest of the day. What?! Poor treatment to a patron when you won't even try get what we asked for nicely. We asked for a little bit not a whole plate. My sister got a chicken tostada but the chicken was barely present but they made up with the lettuce. Such disproportionate meals. Sheesh. I would have easily forgiven all that if at least the service was better. We won't be returning here sadly. We were served tons of chips at the beginning so there's that. Ugh. read more

Great food and ambiance. We ordered fajitas for TWO PEOPLE and the order comes with "3" tortillas...Then they changed us an additional charge for "3" more.The entree should already come with a minimum of "4"... because there's "2 PEOPLE" dining. JUST SAYING........ Enjoy your meal, it's a good place to eat. The outside patio was a enjoyable experience. read more

Cool place. Waiters work hard. Had a nice feel to the place - cozy. Clientele were all ordinary locals. You can tell when people care.

Dinner Take Out. Chicken Tacos and Rice. The rice was so salty it was inedible and the chicken meat in the Tacos was tough as leather. Will not be back! read more

Very nice restaurant, although they struggle at times and it can take quite a while to get your food. The decor is actually pretty, like an "hacienda" style, and the outside dining area is cute and has plenty of shade. I have come here many times, and have always received my orders correctly, and the staff has always been friendly. The only issue I have is it can sometimes take a very long time to get your food, not sure if the kitchen is understaffed. The food is very good and has always been consistent. I'm only sad that they do not have Jarritos or Aguas Frescas. My usual favorite is the green enchiladas, the sauce is really good. The fajitas are always popular with the people I go with, and I hear the chicken salad is good. read more

A favorite Mexican restaurant. Their margaritas, Chile Rellenis, and especially the Camarones a la Diabla (spicy!) our outstanding.

Delicioso Great margaritas, all our orders were very good, friendly service, comfortable atmosphere, nice outdoor seating area.

Went there with my girlfriend this last Saturday. The food was amazing. She said it was the best Mexican food she's ever had which I might have to agree with her. Very flavorful and the staff is really nice. read more

Great family owned restaurant. The whole family really likes coming here. I keep forgetting to ask if they have black beans instead of refried. I also wish they had some super fresh health options too. Ambience is great with a great patio to relax on. read more

It is 6:30pm. They decided to close early as it is "slow" and only take to go orders. Then, three groups, total of 11 people showed up, and still decided to keep closed? There were about six tables with people eating, but did not want to stay open. I am guessing the manager was off tonight, so this is to let the owner know what their staff is doing, or not doing as I should say. read more

Very slow service. We waited quite a long time to give our order and even to get the check. I would be willing to wait if the food was worth it but unfortunately it is not. We ordered the Ensalada de Pollo and a wet carne asada burrito. Both were mediocre at best. The outdoor patio is very inviting, shaded and is probably the best part of this restaurant. read more

Check it out. We had the fajitas and the Flautas. So delicious. The fajitas were cooked perfectly and the flautas were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Definitely recommend. We were there for a weekend and got everything to go. I'm sure it's even better fresh. read more

On the way to Cambria, we stopped for a gem show at Nipomo HS. We were hungry afterwards and my friend wanted Mexican food. I didn't even think this small town would have a Mexican restaurant. But we found Las Cazuelas. She ordered huevos rancheros and loved it. I ordered a hamburger and I loved it along with the fries. The service is great, courteous and responsive. We got there just ahead of the crowds. It was packed when we left. We look forward to going again and seeing what other treasures are hidden in Nipomo. read more
