I ordered the el Diabla shrimp. This was had just the right amount of heat and tasted delicious, just as good as any I have tasted before. My wife had the super tacos with asada. She said they tasted great and were loaded with meat, avocado, and all the good stuff. She ranked it a solid 4. I look forward to re-visit this place and try their different dishes. I hope they are as good as tonight's! This place is located on the West end of town in the shopping center. Not what you would call the best area in town.

Yes, my name is Mario too, but this is an unbiased review lol)…read more I'm not sure if these bad reviews are talking about the same place I went, but "Mario's Traditional Mexican Food" in Chowchilla, CA was absolutely amazing! The service, atmosphere and definitely the food were great. ALSO, I'M 100% POSITIVE THEIR FOOD DOESN'T COME FROM CANS LIKE PEOPLE SAY IN THESE REVIEWS. TRUST ME, I KNOW FOR SURE. We had a large party so Mario, himself, came to check on us. He made sure we had everything we needed. We wanted guacamole for our tortilla chips and he brought the ingredients to our table and showed us how he makes it and served it fresh! He took the time to speak to us which showed that it was deeper than just patronizing his business. Mario is a great business owner, cook, server and overall all... a great person! I would recommend eating here 10/10. If I lived in Cali, this would be a weekly staple for my family. GO EAT AT MARIO'S!!!

The Molcajete was the standout dish of the night. It arrived sizzling hot and loaded with perfectly cooked meats, seafood, fresh vegetables, and a rich, savory sauce that tied everything together. It was hearty, flavorful, and easily one of the best Molcajetes I've had. The mussels were another favorite. Honestly, everything tasted like it came straight out of someone's mother's kitchen--in the best way possible. The food had that homemade, comforting quality that's hard to find these days. The portions were generous, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere had that cozy, family-owned feel that makes you want to come back again.

We were heading toward Yosemite and decided to stop here on a whim and I am so glad we did…read more The location was easy to find, and there was plenty of seating, so we were able to sit down right away. As soon as we looked over the menu, my mouth was already watering. We ordered the aguachiles verdes, the molcajete supreme, and I added a side of fries. When I say the food came out fast, I mean FAST, especially for food this fresh. The wait staff was attentive, friendly, and checked in just enough without being overbearing. The aguachile was honestly one of the best I've had. The green sauce was incredibly flavorful, perfectly balanced, and everything tasted fresh and vibrant. The molcajete supreme did not disappoint. The sauce was rich and delicious, and the portion of carne and shrimp was generous and very satisfying. You can tell care goes into the food here. And somehow, even the fries were amazing .... crispy, hot, and the perfect side. If you're passing through on your way to Yosemite, this place is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back.

We each ordered different dishes from the menu and were very disappointed. Starting from The cocido, and my daughter's enchiladas suizas not good either. Quesabirrias were dry and tasteless. Avocado bowl we ordered for the appetizer needed salt, lemon and onion. Even the chips were hard maybe old from the day before very stale. Tacos not good either prices are very cheap but the food is not good. The only thing I can talk good about it's the service. Service was excellent. But unfortunately won't be back because we did not like the food at all.

We all got carne asada tacos, chose from the variety of freshly made fixings. My favorite was the nopales, great flavor & not slimy. I didn't take a photo of the jamaica & horchata, they were both so refreshing & authentic, they also have some soda's in the fridge. I absolutely loved the family's welcoming hospitality & dedication to providing great service. There isn't much to the location, it's outside behind an old restaurant, in the parking lot under a tent w/ lights but who needs 4 walls to get down on some tacos?! They even had a playlist going of some of my childhood favorites. Definitely telling a friend so they can tell their friend & maybe we"ll all meet later. Try this place out for yourself, you won't be disappointed :)

Honestly best burrito and one of the best tacos in central. I'm on a mission to find the best tacos…read moreand by far these are one of the best, if not then they are the best. Every ingredient is blended so nicely. They used refried beans which I love and complements with grilled onions. The tacos were loaded up and everything on the taco just tasted so well. I know it looks like a mess but trust me the mess is bomb! Service is usual, not bad. Very nice people, gave some recommendations, they were also very patient. The place is not really for eating and dining because they don't have seats. They only take cash so prepare yourself before coming here. Overall super nice! I will be coming back for more!
