Everything tasted fresh and authentic. Our server, Genaro, was incredibly attentive, friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. We loved it so much that we came back a second time. This visit, we tried the caldo de res (Genaro's recommendation), and it was absolutely delicious. I felt revived after every spoonful. We also ordered the trio chilaquiles with red, green, and mole sauces which was a great way to experience all the flavors. The real showstopper, though, was the café de olla. It was the perfect blend of warmth, spice, and sweetness. Such a wonderful way to start the morning!! Great food, genuine hospitality, and an experience that keeps us coming back. Highly recommend!

Food was good, the burrito sauces were tasty and flavored well. I could easily share this portion size with another person. The hostess handling patrons and customers was super sweet to work with and order from. She did an amazing job handling customers that came into the restaurant. The restaurant itself was quite packed, get there early to secure a seat or (see if you can) call ahead of time. The price for the burrito was more expensive than typical places which is why I'd rate it 4/5 stars, otherwise 5 star food!

BETWEEN THE REVIEWS w/ Rodney S…read more Q) Where did you go for lunch today, Rodney? A) Thanks for asking, Rodney. I went to Katrina's Mexican Kitchen in Artesia for Taco Tuesday. Q) How much is Katrina's Taco Tuesday? A) Aside from chorizo, all tacos are $1.69 (at the time) all day. Arriving just a bit after opening, al pastor & carnitas tacos seemed just the thing to tide me over till dinner. Q) How were they? A) Rodney, I found the tacos were amply filled with meat, and a great deal for $1.69 each. To drink, I also had Katrina's cafe de olla, and found the cinnamon sweet drink pleasing to imbibe in. Q) Rodney, where is Katrina's Mexican Kitchen located? A) Occupying the former location of Tribos Peri Peri, Katrina's is located in the 99 Ranch plaza, on the opposite side, next to Boiling Point. Q) Do you recommend Katrina's Mexican Kitchen? A) Yes, I do, Rodney. Not the cheapest Taco Tuesday in the general area, Katrina's affordable Taco Tuesday serves plump & stuffed tacos in a cozy environment. The staff were quite busy with to-go & dine-in, so many people agree with my assessment. I'd definitely return.

Neede a good cup of coffee - the waitress mentioned Cafe de Olla - I ended up having two cups full of very good sweetened coffee. Fun murals great for your IG posts. Service was friendly and efficient. Chips and salsa quite tasty and had free refill after I demolished one basket. Parking in this plaza can be challenging. TV was tuned to FIFA live contest France vs. Senegal , one Spanish language talk show and a show of a celebrity taking the Hot one's wings challenge. Family friendly, good for lunch.

The food came out extremely fast so a great option for a quick lunch. The tacos de mi abuela were light and crispy with a lot of filling. The ground beef and chorizo filling wasn't hit for me though. The taquitos were delicous. Short rib filling was tender and flavorly and the green salsa on the plate paired well with it. The enchilada with mole had mixed reactions between my wife and myself. She enjoyed it, while I didn't. I thought the mole was overly bitter, while she enjoyed the smokiness of it. I felt the tortilla and cheese cooled down too quickly m causing them to be on the harder side, like an uncooked tortilla from a package. The churro was the highlight of the meal. They were fresh, crispy on the outside fluffy on the inside. The salted caramel was perfect for dipping. Overall the food was good, glad we got to try it finally. Would be a good place to go get some churros before bowling next door.

This place is nestled into a small strip mall with a couple other restaurants located in it kind of tucked away not hard to find, but you would miss it pretty easy, it was either the owner and his mom or his wife and they both seem nice. They took the order they made the order and they brought out the order so it looks like a hard-working family. Now onto the food !! My soup was good and I could tell that it was fresh because it took about 20 minutes to make and nobody else was in the restaurant. I appreciate the attention to detail, but for me the broth was just lacking. Something was definitely missing in the flavor department. My 10 year old son ordered the Carne Asada quesadilla and I had a small piece of that, which was actually pretty good as the tortilla was nice and fluffy and very soft. The meat in the quesadilla was also tender and not tough which also helped out Not saying I wouldn't come back to this place and give it another try ,but the soup for me was definitely lacking what I was looking for and I've had better albondigas soup at other places.

Damn good! My family…read moreand I wanted Thai bbq takeout for the 4th of July. We were going to have that for later. So in the meantime we needed a Scooby snack :p The Mexican spot next to Thai bbq was closed for the holiday. So I started calling around because my mom needed her carne asada tacos! Called around and I remember I had Los consomes on my list and they were open YAY. I ordered two carne asada street tacos, a queso birria ,a queso asada taco and chips and salsa. I was raised in Cerritos so I know Artesia very well and made my way over from Thai bbq. Walked in, nice clean little mom and pop. Seems like the guy was the chef and cashier. I didn't realize there was a little bell to let them know you're there so I stood around for a good minute til I pressed it lol. For safety, I'd say they should have something that makes a noise when you first walk in. Anyhow, he came out, rung me up and food was packed and ready. Got home and tore into the bag. The chips definitely tasted made to order. Extremely fresh! The salsa was sooooo good. He asked if I wanted the hot sauce and of course I did. Even my mom indulged and she usually can't do spicy. It was a perfect amount of spice. She said her tacos were the softest, not soggy tacos she ever had. The meat was perfect and plentiful. The queso tacos were simple and delicious. No dried out tortillas here! The Birria was nice and soft. Their meat was perfectly cooked. Not tough or a crazy chew to it. My mom said the chips were addicting. We were full just off our tacos and some chips. I needed a nap LOL. They have a nice straightforward menu. Not a million things, just enough options to keep you interested for multiple visits. Great service from a hardworking family I bet. I can't wait to go back and try their soups, even with this summer heat I wish them much success:)

The food, service,…read moreand ambiance are all top-notch, and I can't wait to come back and share this place with others! This hidden gem is a must-visit! El Manjar transforms into La Mirage Nightclub at night, but during the day, it's a vibrant and exciting restaurant offering a surprising variety of delicious dishes. From Mexican food to steaks, pasta, sushi, pizza, and happy hour drinks and snacks, there's something for everyone. They also offer an amazing brunch buffet from 10 AM - 2 PM, with adults paying just $20 and kids $13--such a great deal for the quality and variety you get! The interior is full of energy, featuring beautiful waterfalls, bright tropical flowers, and TVs playing videos while you eat. It creates a lively atmosphere that feels like a tropical escape. The service is quick, and the presentation of everything was exceptional--everything looks as good as it tastes! When you walk in, you'll notice that to the left is the restaurant, and to the right is La Mirage Nightclub. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like VIPs. The manager personally came out to greet us, which added such a personal touch to the experience. We felt welcomed and cared for, which made our visit feel even more special. I tried the enchiladas, which were full of flavor, and the rest of my group enjoyed the specialty filet mignon, chicken parm pasta, their Mar y Tierra dish and a specialty appetizer Octopus --everything was fantastic. We also had margaritas from happy hour, and they were delicious--perfectly presented and refreshing. To top it off, a live band started playing, and they were amazing! They took requests and performed right around our table, creating a fun and lively atmosphere. It was my mom's birthday, and the staff went above and beyond by bringing out a complimentary cake with a candle and singing to her, making the day even more memorable.

This was our first time visiting Frida, and unfortunately it will probably be our last…read more I really hate leaving reviews like this, especially because I work in the restaurant and hospitality industry and understand that restaurants get busy, tables have to be managed, and sometimes there are legitimate reasons people are seated out of order. But the way we were treated here was not okay. My husband and I came in for brunch and were told there would be about a 15 minute wait. A party of 5 walked in immediately after us and was seated right away. My husband politely asked the hostess why they were seated before us. Her response was simply, "because they are a party of 5." That was it. No explanation that they had a reservation, that a certain table was specifically being held for a larger party, or anything that would have made the situation make sense. What bothered me even more was her attitude. She was rude, dismissive and made us feel like we were bothering her just by asking a completely reasonable question. I was also the only Black person in the restaurant at the time. I'm not going to claim to know what was in anyone's mind, but when you are treated differently from the people who walk in right behind you and nobody can give you a reasonable explanation for why, of course it makes you question what the difference was. We ended up leaving. We were actually looking forward to trying this place for the first time, but I'm not going to spend my money somewhere that makes me feel unwelcome. The hostess is the first impression of your restaurant, especially for a first time customer. Unfortunately, ours was a terrible one. I hope management takes this seriously because no guest should leave a restaurant wondering whether the color of their skin had something to do with how they were treated.

I got a package deal that was Taco Catering For 60 People Meat included: asada, chicken, pastor with pineapple. Full salsa bar includes beans/rice/mild salsa/hot salsa/onion/cilantro.

Very professional! Flexible! He stayed about 45 minutes longer. Brought sticker for the kids! (My daughters birthday party themed) Joseph communication and presentation level above what I even imagined. He was very detailed about the layout of the food and checked in often with me to assure me food was going great and on schedule. Even before the day he reached out to confirm all details/ any changes. When I tell you he is worth booking I mean it! When all the guest were eating and he had slow time. Instead of resting or taking it easy. He took the time to personally ask if I had tried the drinks when I said "no" he brought them to me. I will definitely be booking Tacos Suave again!

So upon walking into Perro Exquisite Tacos was greeted by workers. Their menu is pretty straight forward BUT their portion sizes are not what you think. When you order one taco and see the price your expectations aren't that high but when they give you your order you think maybe it was a bad idea ordering 2 tacos. Portion sizes are for a grown man! Their salsas and avocado are super fresh and flavorful made in house. The carne asada is moist , juicy and most importantly tender ! As shown in the photos this place is ALWAYS clean.

The tacos are quite big, obviously. The meat is nice and tender. Unfortunately, the guac, while fresh, had 0 seasoning. Quite disappointing considering we also paid for an extra side. We did get 2 bags of chips though when paying for 1 and they were crispy and flavorful. The horchata is white colored, and seriously lacking horchata flare, unfortunately. They don't have many options, but I recommend getting a regular and breakfast taco if you need variety. The breakfast taco was surprisingly good. The keto taco was ok, but the tortillas are so good that I would stick when them.
