We asked for hotter salsa and it was good. My wife had the nachos with chicken. My wife said it was great. The meat was fresh, and the portions were filling. I had the chicken fajitas and they were fresh, hot, and filling. I will definitely come back here again. This restaurant is worth going to.

I don't believe I've ever dined here before but had dropped my car off at Discount across tge…read morestreet and had an hour to kill. As I look for three things at a Mexican place. 1. Central/South America landscapers or construction workers. Their presence is a very good sign! 2. A salsa bar with carrots and jalapenos in addition to at least four salsa coices. 3. The meat selection and specifically lengua, cow tongue. If att three are present, you are in for a really good meal. Sadly, none of the three were found, but they did gave fish tacos, which I ordered along with a Mexican Coke. While they didn't have hirchata, they did have an acceptable variety of appropriate Mexican drinks. I always start a plate by trying the rice and beans. If you can't get these right, there is little hope for anything else. While both the rice and beans were the right texture, neither under or over cooked, but I must note that the rice was not fried before being prepared, it was too fluffy. We always fry the rice at home before adding liquids to it. They were also on the bland side. The rice needs significantly more spice, the beans need a little roasted jalapeno and a little farm cheese on top. This would take them from okay to good, maybe even great! The tacos, first thing I looked for was if there was cabbage or lettuce. Lettuce if fine for most other meats, but cabbage is absolutely essential to the correct flavor profile. Also noted were cillantro and a little sauce. Sadly there is no salsa bar or else I'd have put some tomatillo salsa on them. I wasn't asked if I wanted salsa when I picked up my order. They use flour tortillas and while their flour tortillas were good, tasted at least locally made if not onsite, I expect corn. This feels like a somewhat authentic Mexican restaurant but toned down for the local Idaho pallet. Having lived in three of the four southern border states, and eaten in all four, and being married to a Mexican for forty years, I tend to look for the three things I mentioned, so will leave this place for the local, heat and spice averse diners.

They come with cheese, lettuce, and tomato. I much prefer corn tortillas, cilantro, and onions. We got our tacos with pinto beans, which were very good, and rice. We also had their guacamole - it was very citrusy and garlicy - kind of a fake taste. They have a good selection of soft drinks - they had one that was iced tea. I chose that and it was mostly water - the machine needed to be adjusted. Overall, not my favorite. The service was good - the server was nice, the food came up quickly and was served hot. So, overall, my feelings about the Tortilla Factory are mixed. I don't think I would return.

The salsa isn't my cup of tea it reminds me of Pace picante mild.

Others got the chimichangas and they liked theirs.

Walking in, this place is so colorful and vibrant! I love the pretty water fountain as soon as you walk in and the pretty art piece that was hanging above it. The whole venue looks like a fiesta so you know you're about to have a great time! We got sat. A sweet gal dropped off a couple waters, chips and salsa. Nothing like starting your afternoon with chips and salsa! Adri came shortly after and grabbed drink orders. I got a virgin mango margarita today. She asked if I wanted the rim salted or tajined. I totally would have but I have to watch my salt intake. Without the salt and tajin, that mango margarita was money! It was so good! It was perfectly blended! It had a good amount of mango to it. It was absolutely delicious! For lunch I got a shredded beef taco and shredded beef enchilada for lunch. It also came out with a side of rice and beans. The plate looked fabulous! I appreciate the peas and carrots in the rice! It added another texture to it. The rice and beans were nice and hot! Super tasty! The beef in my enchilada was tenders and flavorful. The sauce was rich in color and flavor. I like that there was a slight heat to everything. It wasn't overwhelming. I didn't get a chance to eat much of the taco. I did take a bite and it was good! I do wish that the tortilla didn't get all soggy. One side of the taco was great but the other was drenched in fluid. I also did find hard pieces of rice in the side of rice i got. Kind like it's been sitting too long and it dried out. It wasn't the best the chew. I'm happy I got to try this joint out today! Adri was fantastic and did a great job taking care of us! My margarita was top notch! The food was good and the venue was so much fun. Looking forward to coming back and trying other goodies of their menu with another bomb ass margarita!

And then life took over and 25 years later, I'm back at Cafe Ole for a friend's birthday. I can't believe I haven't been to this joint for 25 years. I can say it kinda still looks the same. I remember bits and pieces of the venue but I don't even remember what I did last week let alone many many many moons ago. I'm sure they have done some upkeep on the joint but to me, it still looks like my teenage years. Bright, festive and fun! We were sat in the back room in a booth. It was nice and bright. Our server got drinks started for my 2 friends. I showed up last a usual so it took a minute for our server to get to me. Chips and salsa were already started. When our server finally got around to us again, I got myself a virgin mango margarita and some queso. One thing about Cafe Ole is their queso is worth the extra calories! After eating what seemed like a ton of chips, queso, bean dip and salsa, we were stuffed!! The cheese pull on the queso is fantastic! It's hot! It's gooey! It's cheesey! And what every chip in this world needs. The salsa was fresh and hearty. The bean dip was savory and creamy. It was hard not to polish all those chips off with that many dip options. As full as I was, I didn't want to not order something huge. We didn't want to be those guests that share one thing. So, after going over the appetizer menu over and over again for something small, I decided on the beef taquitos. I didn't get a photo of the taquitos. They were actually the perfect size! They were smaller but they held a lot of shredded beef inside! It doesn't come with any extra salsa or sauce so it asked for a side of sour cream. I also used the rest of our salsa as a dip for the taquitos too. You get 5 of them cut in half. I ate a half of one and couldn't eat any more. But that one was good! Especially when the sour cream and salsa was added. The birthday girl finished her dinner with a shot. I polished off my virgin margarita. I probably could have had two of those drinks! It was so good! Blended, tart and sweet. To make it that much better it was also on happy hour prices! Our server did a decent job. He did check up on us but would be gone for long periods of time. Being here brought back so many fond memories of my young adult life. The fun I had here. It was great to come in tonight and celebrate my friend's birthday. I'm going to have to come back soon for another round of happy hour! I can't stay away too long from the nicely blended margarita!
