    I enjoyed their margaritas during happy hour and they were great! I also had a taco salad that was very fresh and the tortilla shell was crisp. The veggies in my salad were so beautiful and fresh. The waiter was kind and very friendly. We enjoyed the patio dining and it was just beautiful.

    I usually patronize this restaurant during the late evenings but decided to have lunch their yesterday. Our waiter Esteban was friendly and made my guest a special drink, a combination of two margaritas. The atmosphere was cozy and the food is always delicious. The guacamole is made table side and simply delicious. The fajitas are great. This is one of my spots in Wellington. Check them out ant time

    We had a very good lunch here. We got to the restaurant just as they were opening and there was already one gentleman dining. They got a bit busier as time went on. This restaurant is located outside the mall in the area with many other restaurants. There's plenty of parking, but it gets packed during meal times. Margaritas were on happy hour all day so my husband got one of their classic ones for only $6. They had a lunch menu; a daily specials menu; and their regular menu from which to choose. For his lunch, he chose a burrito with ground beef and refried beans. The portion was huge, but he said it was so good that he finished it all. I got one of their daily specials -- quesabirria. Lots of cheese and tender meat in two tacos served with hot sauce and a delicious dipping broth made from the drippings. Everything was made fresh to order. And we could tell. For dessert, we shared their (caramel) flan. There were a few blueberries and a mass of whipped cream on top of an excellent version of flan. We were so full from our main entrees, but we couldn't resist every last bite of flan. This is not your run of the mill Mexican restaurant. Large portions of very expertly crafted above average versions of all your favorites and then some. So glad we decided to try them.

    Lots of good restaurants in this plaza. Today we chose Mole Cantina, and what a good choice it was! Easy access parking in the large lot. Large welcoming interior with a full bar as you walk in and immediate recognition and seating. We were given menus including a lunch special menu. Drink orders taken, for me a Classic Margarita ($6) Happy Hour all day today! I chose a ground beef Burrito from the regular menu. It was served hot on a large plate with salsa and sour cream. With a side of spicy sauce mixed in, it was delicious and filling. For dessert we shared a Spectacular Creamy Flan with whipped cream and blueberries. Fantastic!

    The Mole Cantina Mexicana monthly car show in Wellington Florida yet again was an absolutely awesome event! There were some great cars as usual.

    I rarely leave negative reviews, but our visit to MOLE Cantina was truly disappointing from start to finish. First, when we walked in, it was extremely hot inside--no working AC on a warm day made it uncomfortable right away. My daughter and I sat at our table for about 10 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us, and this was with maybe five other people in the entire restaurant. I asked about a kids menu, and while they didn't have one, the server said they could make kids items. I ordered grilled chicken and fries for my daughter, and I asked for their most popular item--the server recommended the tacos. I went with a chicken taco and a steak taco, which came with rice and beans. The only thing that was even decent were the fries. The grilled chicken for my daughter was so dry it was barely edible. The tacos? Flavorless. Even loaded with onions and cilantro, they just tasted bland. The steak taco was especially bad--super chewy and tough. I didn't even finish it. The chicken taco wasn't any better. And here's the kicker--no chips and salsa unless you pay extra. I've never been to a Mexican restaurant where that isn't a complimentary starter. For the quality of food we received, the prices were way too high. We left hungry and disappointed. Safe to say, we won't be returning.

    Yummy food with a great team. I attended a holiday event for Community Partners of South Florida, a local nonprofit, that they are co-sponsoring. I love their generous spirit. The food was amazing and they provide large portions. Everything was festive for the holidays and looked lovely. There was a DJ and we had a ton of fun for a good cause.

    Small Fresh Guacamole and paloma drink

    Had carne asada tacos, fish tacos, and small guac all were amazing! Fish tacos could have been a bit smaller a bit overstuffed honestly but still really good. The paloma drink I had though was awful didn't taste anything like a paloma wouldn't recommend that... was super strong though so thats at least good

    Chicken quesadilla
    Jim P.

    This is a mixed review. Some aspects of our dinner at Mole Cantina with six people were excellent and some were not so good. For example, we sat outside in a pleasant setting under a large tent. The wrought iron table and chairs were sturdy, but the chairs weren't particularly comfortable. And an unpleasant garbage smell occasionally wafted through the air throughout our meal. On a positive note, happy hour runs until 7 pm daily (yay!) and the drink prices are terrific (more yay!). The margheritas were tasty and the white wine sangria was delicious. Sangria (red or white) are the only wine-based drinks included in happy hour. We ordered guacamole and chips to share. The freshly prepared guac was terrific, but the accompanying salsa was thin and bland. Disappointing. Our entrees also ranged from great to not-so-good. In order from best to worst: -Ribs with chimichurri sauce. Featured on the Specials menu, the fall-off-the-bone tender ribs were finger licking good, and the chimichurri sauce was quite tasty. -Chicken fajitas. Nice portion of grilled chicken and a good assortment of peppers, onions, and other accompaniments. -Mexico City style quesadillas. Two blue corn tortillas with cheese and shredded beef. Tasty. Comes with a small side salad and a nice sauce. -Burrito enchilado with shredded chicken and rice. Covered with enchilada sauce and cheese. Does not come with any sides. The sauce was ok but not the best tasting sauce around. Portion size is good. -Shredded chicken enchilada with red sauce. Comes with a side of rice and refried beans. Portion size was decent. Enchilada sauce wasn't particularly good (as noted above with the burrito) -Chicken quesadilla. Not very satisfying as the accompanying pico de gallo was mostly made of onions and was a small portion. The quesadilla didn't have much shredded chicken in it and was not particularly flavorful. We went to Mole to hear the Mariachi band as well as to have dinner. The band played inside for a while and then took a break. We asked when they would play outside and were told they'd be outside shortly. After two hours, the band hadn't come outside and we were finished with our meals, so we left. Another disappointment. Would we come back to Mole? Perhaps, but not right away. Now that we know where to sit to hear the music (inside!) and know which menu items are good, we will be more selective in our selection.

    It was so nice to sit outside, finally. The service was amazing and quick. The food was outstanding! We got there for happy hour, strawberry margarita, table side guac was fire, and then the sizzling fajitas were so good. The steak was some of the best I've had in a while, as if I made it myself, juicy and tender.

    We went to Mole Cantina Mexicana for a late lunch during the week. The restaurant was not busy at all. We chose to sit inside, although the outdoor patio looked nice. The restaurant was decorated cute for Fall. The guacamole was made fresh on a cart, but was not made at table side. The chips and guacamole were good. The queso fundido was good, but I personally prefer "regular" queso. The lunch size portion of the veggie quesadilla was large and there was plenty left to take home. Our server was nice and she provided good customer service. The overall price was a bit expensive at a little over $83 for lunch.

    Happy Hour Menu @ the bar (HH Guac is a single portion)
    Anna M.

    Mole has the absolute best staff and margaritas! We love to come for happy hour in particular when the drinks are only $7-8 each. If you are at the bar, they have a small plate HH food menu as well! We often also get the homemade guac (which they make at your table) and the queso to share. While a little on the pricey side, you can share amongst the table. Both are delicious and our favorites from the menu. If you come closer to dinner time, there is a mariachi band that comes to play. It is very interactive, fun, and beautiful music! There is a cute bar and tons of tables inside and outside, and they are very accommodating if you have a large party. I love how the staff decorates the entire place for each holiday, they really go all out. I can't say enough great things about their bar and wait staff. Definitely stop by for a drink if you are visiting the Wellington mall area!

    This was a wonderful lunch experience in Royal Palm Beach…read more If you are craving authentic Mexican Cuisine, this is your place! A large interior and bar area with a very friendly and helpful staff. I ordered a Burrito lunch special. My Burrito was great and filled with a generous portion of meat. The exterior tortilla was soft and I could cut it with a fork. The sauces are fresh and wake up all your taste sensations. We shared a caramel flan which was large and large on delicious flavor too!

The menu is large with quite a few lunch specials from which to choose. It was not an easy decision. We enjoyed addictive chips and two salsas (one mild and one spicy) while looking over the menu. My husband got their lunch burrito. It came with sides of refried beans, yellow rice, and salad. There was a dollop of sour cream on top. He had ground beef as his burrito meat filling. He really liked the flavor. He said the tortilla wrapping was soft. He was planning on taking half home for dinner, but wound up eating the entire meal as it was so good. I had an appetizer of shrimp ceviche. The large serving came spread out on a plate. There was a ton of shrimp -- cut piece of larger sized shrimp mixed in with whole baby shrimp; chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro. All in a marinade. I added an additional squeeze lime and some of the mild salsa. The shrimp dish was delicious. It felt healthy and refreshing -- especially on the hot day. For dessert, we had (vanilla) flan. A large portion that was perfect for us to share. It came with whipped cream and a couple cinnamon sugared chips. This place is a keeper.

Having seen signs that tacos were served at the gas station, I would always drive by, dismissing the idea of gas station tacos. As a Southern California native, I have yearned for authentic and delicious Mexican food since moving to West Palm Beach. One day, while out shopping, my daughter and I said, why not? If it's good, we'll bring some home for the rest of the family. We did just that. We were absolutely sold. Having now gone back many times, it is always delicious, consistent, clean, and the service is top-notch. I sincerely wish this small but phenomenal business all the foot traffic they can handle. Always reasonably priced and delicious, make sure to bring your appetite and a bit of patience, as your order is prepared fresh. Family favorites are their outstanding chicken tacos, beef tostadas, burritos, and any variety of tortas. They do offer catering as well. I have not used their catering service but it is featured on their Facebook page (serves as the restaurant's website). I have shamelessly lifted photos from their Facebook page.

A mutual friend connected us with the manager, Stefani, and from the very beginning she was incredibly helpful, welcoming, and accommodating. She made the whole process seamless and got us on the schedule--and after such an amazing experience, we knew we had to come back again this year, for another event! Last year also introduced a lot of our families to this location, as we all have been frequent flyers! Tonight was just as fantastic. We arrived around 6:00 PM, and by 6:30 all 12 of our families (about 50 people!) were settled on the patio. Our server was attentive, friendly, and truly on top of everything. As someone who's worked in the industry, I know how challenging it can be to manage a group that size--especially with lots of kids--and she handled it like a pro! The food did not disappoint! We started with queso and chips (a must!), and everything we ordered was delicious. I had the tuna tostada and a birria taco, my girls enjoyed a quesadilla and chicken fingers from the kids menu, and my husband had the taco salad. The portions were generous, and every bite was so good. And you definitely need to check out happy hour! If you get there before 6 PM, they offer great food and drink specials. The Mango Tango (I ordered mine without jalapeños) was amazing, my husband loved the Watermelon Smash, and another parent couldn't stop raving about the Pineapple Mojito. If you're part of a local sports team looking for a fun way to host a team dinner and raise funds, this is a perfect spot. And if you're in the Royal Palm/Wellington area--trust me, you NEED some PapiChulo in your life. You won't be disappointed! Huge thank you to Stefani and the entire staff for always taking such great care of our crew--we appreciate you so much!
