These are the best enchiladas in all of socal! The portion big and fairly priced. There's a really pretty ocean view from the restaurant and we had the option to sit where we wanted and sat right by the window. Service is good and we were taken very well care of, we will be back very frequently!! read more

Salsa Verdes - chicken enchiladas (green sauce) - Mexican Near Me - Palos Verdes Estates, California

Great food best service great people to be around fun had a good time with my family there

This place had great reviews and, as I used to live within walking distance, went back to find out the current status. Went there on a weekend for lunch. Wasn't sure if they were open as it was empty at noon. Apparently folks eat a bit later, as it started to fill at 100... especially the bar where soccer (futball) was on the screens. Family friendly: I should say so. I was surprised how many folks with kids. I can see why, as the wait staff were super good about working with them. Service: very friendly, very efficient. Views: kind of limited. We got a window seat...which overlooked an alley and then homes (mainly blocked by trees). Off in the distance you can barely make out the ocean and Catalina. Ambiance: old school, old world. The interior does actually look very much like a cantina in Mexico. Food: typical California / Mexican. Nothing nouveau here, no pretentious fare, just the hearty and filling comfort food that we californios grew up with. Price: considering you're isolate on the peninsula, it's not bad. Competitors: the closest similar restaurant is The Red Onion. Similar fare, similar price, slightly different ambiance. read more

Food and service was amazing!!! Cannot say enough good things about our server , Servando!!! Over the top !!!!

The mouthwatering food, the service and the ocean views: Salsa Verdes is a hidden gem beyond compare -- and I'm a Mexican restaurant snob. Highly recommend the enchilada suizas. I added shredded chicken on top. The sangria is insanely delicious (and plentiful). My husband's margarita was superb. This is going to be our new haunt. read more

Very nice restaurant. Plenty of chips and salsa. Good Margaritas and Big Portions of Tasty Selections. The Mahi Mahi was very good and so was the Chile Rellenos . read more

This place is great. High quality lunch special meal. Have tried the steak and shrimp. Service is great. Everything in PVE has good ambiance. read more

This place is a good 3 1/2 stars at best. The food is just mediocre at best. It's very close to me so it's nice to have something near but the food isn't anything to write home about... There isn't much up in lower Lunada Bay Area... so a good stop for a quick and ok food. read more

Ok yeah when I put together the location, ambience, price, food and service this is one of the best Mexican places in South Bay. We tried the mole enchiladas, shrimp burrito, Chile relleno, Chile Verde burrito, queso fundido, flan and churros with ice cream. My personal favorites were the queso fundido and the desserts but that's because I always love apps and desserts. The burritos were also great. The mole enchiladas were ok but more because they are an acquired taste (so I cannot really judge if they were good or bad). Overall HIGHLY recommend read more

Went to celebrate the 3rd birthday of our grandson. The food and service was outstanding. Two of us had the fresh seabass that was great. It came with a topping of fresh vegetables with sautéd tomatoes and capers. The mixed tostada was equally as delicious with sautéed garlic shrimp. Our server Titiana was really attentive to our birthday boy which made the evening perfect. It may be a bit of a drive for most but I'd say it's well worth the trip. Cheers!! read more

Had lunch at Salsa Verdes the other day. We were after the real lunch time yet there were other diners there too. Service was very polite and friendly. At no time were we rushed. Food arrived quickly and was very yummy. I had a Chile verde burrito, wet. It was big and tasted really good. A very enjoyable neighborhood Mexican restaurant. read more

Great food - my salmon with cream sauce was so moist and perfectly cooked! This place is kind of a hidden gem with a nice ocean view. Waitress was really attentive and sweet. The only gripe is it was hot inside. Owners please use the AC! read more

I have been remiss in not reviewing until now. We found this gem December 3, 2021 and so far have been here more than 6 times already. We are working our way through the menu and have yet to find any item that isn't fantastic! From the shrimp nachos, to the crab enchilada's to the fish burrito's to the BOMB tortilla soup, we just can't say enough! We have also had the fajitas (shrimp, chicken and steak) and they were fantastic as well. Their green rice is to die for and their black beans...OMG. The margaritas - FANTASTIC and top shelf all the way. Pitchers, absolutely! The staff, we have had almost every server and there is not one bad one in the bunch although we have a soft spot for Efrain. I can't believe we have lived in the southbay this long and just recently found our new "go to". read more

I am generally not into Mexican food and this place was fantastic. Great service, reasonable prices. Absolutely worth your time and money.

I ate there 9/13/24 and I ate the burrito bowl special after about hour and half I started feeling bad I was driving in my car threw up all the food and I have diarrhea all night and next day I'm never ever going to this place again and advise everyone not to go read more

Food is good, its not the best thing in the world when it comes to Mexican food, but it was solid. I wish I could give this a 3.5 because I think 3 is too low and 4 is too high but I guess 4 will do. read more

EXCELLENT all the way around! The food was DELICIOUS and so were the margaritas! None of the nasty pre-made mixes here. I had the CAMARONES AL MOJO DE AJO and it was so yummy! The sauce was delicious and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. NOT chewy or tough. I always love rice no matter what, but am always a little skeptical of any time roasted vegetables are part of the dish because they always tend to be rubbery and not seasoned enough...however Salsa Verdes did NOT disappoint w/the veggies! they were perfectly seasoned and the texture was right. A very delicious dish indeed. My husband ordered the ENCHILADAS DE MOLE...the mole is made in-house and it was SO DAMN GOOD. There was a lovely smokey flavor to it, but it wasn't overpowering...just savory and rich with flavor...loved it. We both ate everything on our plates! As stated above, we also shared a margarita pitcher between the two of us since it was only $30! Figured we would gulp them down even if they weren't the best...however, I was very pleasantly surprised! The "mix" was delicious...did NOT taste like any nasty/chemically pre-made mixes as served at other bars and restaurants I've been to. I didn't ask, but it tasted like they make fresh batches for the day...or at least are buying delicious pre-made mixes that are as fresh as possible. Whatever they're doing, they obviously care about it! And that care was evidenced more than anything by our server. Gabriel was awesome and we never felt like we were forgotten or overly checked in on. Overall, this is a great place and we decided this is going to become our date-night GO TO! Looking forward to the next time! read more

I ordered an appetizer for my meal. The potato flautas are yummy. Two rolled up and cut in half to make four small pieces is good enough portion size. because it's filled with potato it could be filling for some. Nice interior of the restaurant and located in Palos Verdes surrounded by small mom and pop retail and offices. Nice service. read more

My wife and I happened to be in the area and decided to try a new place for lunch. Salsa verdes did not disappoint. Chips and salsa were the best, fresh chips and delicious salsa to start My wife had the shrimp quesadilla and it was delicious. The shrimp tasted fresh and was not over cooked like it is almost everywhere else we have had it in a quesadilla. I had the fajita trio and it was the best fajitas I have ever had. A good ratio of protein to veg, big serving and delicious! We both had a riviera margarita and that too did not disappoint! We will definitely be back! read more

Amazing service, delicious authentic food. We had the sea bass, mahimahi, & chili relleno. All did not disappoint. Also, the house salsa & chips were great too. Indeed a hidden gem tucked away in Palos Verdes. read more

It was on this clear and beautiful day that we decided to have lunch here. We sat next to the window with the warm sun shining through. The dining area was beautifully decorated, with the bar in the adjacent room. This place is a hidden gem, the staff is extremely friendly, and the carne asada burrito bowl, and the wet carne asada burrito was awesome, the beef was tender and delish! read more

Food was good, people were super nice. Price was fine. We ordered to go but the view out the back window looked nice. I was frustrated that we got 5 minutes away before we realized they included no napkins or utensils. Because we were planning to eat near a beach or park to enjoy the weather, we had to go back to get them. read more

love this place!!!!! beautiful location and good food. servers are always nice and this makes for a wonderful family restaurant :)

My favorite place in PV. Delicious, authentic, and affordable. The staff is the best! Especially Gabriel.

This Food was incredible!!!! We all had the chicken enchiladas and the kids had the grilled chicken and rice and cheese quesadillas. I don't know what kind of chicken they use here, but it was the freshest tasting, tender chicken ive ever had. Pretty sure it was fresh and not frozen and it was so flavorful and amazing! The service was great and the food came out so fast after we ordered it. We'll definitely be back here again! read more

Great service great food and great ambiance! We decided to sit outside in the courtyard and it was very nice. Mahi Mahi was the bomb, shrimp con ajo was amazing and the mixed fajitas are delicious with large portion sizes. They have a full bar but no happy hour. Our server was sweet and efficient. This is a great place but does get busy on Friday nights. read more

This is my favorite local spot, the food is simply AMAZING. As a Mexican myself I'm very picky about Mexican restaurants but this is by far one of my favorites. A list of dishes I highly recommend are the camarones al mojo de ajo (shrimp in garlic butter and lime sauce) is sooo good! The steak fajitas are also incredibly delicious (and enough for two people). The chicken and shrimp enchiladas are fantastic (ask for poblano sauce it will blow you mind) last but not least my favorite appetizer is the nachos de camarón. The margaritas are also great! Staff is super attentive and professional, Gabriel is our favorite waiterChicken Enchilada. Ps. They now have outside sitting due to the COVID restrictions. Great atmosphere.

Salsa Verdes - Outside patio - Mexican Near Me - Palos Verdes Estates, California

I have lived in the SouthBay for years and always considered trying this place until my boyfriend suggested it. I drove past here 100s of times. We went with a friend. Everyone enjoyed themselves!! We sat by the window with ocean sunset views and an ocean breeze. Perfect for a date night. It was intimate even with the family with kids. Old school ambiance but ideal for a good bite of typical good Mexican food. Our server is amazing and made us the Casa margaritas. He made them with love. They were the best! Service was speedy. Food came quick. Come hungry, lots of food. I told my folks how good this place was and we came back the next day for dinner with my folks. read more

Came for lunch on a Tuesday. Completely dead in that plaza. Cute outside area. Waitstaff were really nice. The veggie burrito made vegan was yummy. The chips and salsa were good. The Margarita wasn't very good. We asked the staff to order right away, have to-go boxes ready and to pay right away because we were on a very limited time schedule due to work. They were very accommodating. I'd visit again if I were in the area but not for drinks. read more

Great customer service, really good food and cute environment. Been a few times and plan on many more visits.

Lovely spot in Palos Verdes, perfect to refuel after a beach day or hike. Loved sitting in the back room with ocean breeze coming in, and all of the staff were so kind and welcoming. Will be back! read more
