Great place place for a nice Mexican plate…read more The combo plate was sooo filling. I got the combination with just one item that comes with rice and beans. The enchilada was soooo good. Plenty of protein and the sides blend well flavor wise. Stuffed myself and I couldn't even finish. Chips and salsa are provided for each table. We also ordered guac. I thought the guac needed a little more seasoning but very fresh. Chips were thin and crispy. Been here a few times and will keep coming back.

Our server was amiable ' hospitable. Hubby ordered Machaca with rice & beans and I was in the mood for fish tacos. It is Taco Tuesday after all. The complimentary chips & salsa were decent, pretty good actually. My tacos were accompanied with soup (albondigas), rice & beans. Both Hubby & I were so impressed at how delicious everything tasted. He guessed the food was cooked in lard-- at least the beans were. I may have filled up on chips & salsa coz I only ate one of my two tacos. As I mentioned earlier, It's more like a hole in a wall, indoor seating only, booths, tables & chairs. One stall restroom (there were no toilet seat protectors) fairly clean but in need of remodel. The urinal was out of order. The food really speaks for itself that I look past the other things that I would normally stress over (as my OCD might go on over drive lol) No frills, just really great Mexican food.

We ate at Maderos yesterday and I honestly can't stop thinking about the food! It's in such a cute…read morespot right on PCH in Redondo Beach, which already makes it a great place to stop, but the food completely exceeded our expectations. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and perfectly seasoned. We ordered the carne asada and carnitas, and both were amazing. The meat was tender, flavorful, and not fatty at all just perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. My daughter had the bean and cheese burrito with rice and beans and loved it too. They bring out three different salsas with the chips, and each one had its own unique flavor. You can tell the chips are house-made because they're fresh, crisp, and just really good. Some Mexican restaurants can make things overly salty, but everything here tasted balanced and fresh. I also had a Paloma and it was made perfectly. Before we left we decided to try the churros and I'm so glad we did. They were filled with this amazing cream and came with a caramel sauce for dipping. I'm not usually a big dessert person, but these were seriously incredible. Great location, great service, amazing food, and everything tasted fresh and well made. We will definitely be back!

I don't usually write reviews like this because I'd consider myself someone with a lot of patience…read more But my partner and I came to Maderos tonight after looking around Yelp and seeing how many great reviews it had. When we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised by the ambiance and decided to sit outside, which felt perfect for a Sunday evening. We each ordered Orden De Tacos -- which is two tacos with rice and beans -- which seems simple enough. But after a while, we started noticing that people who arrived after us were ordering, getting their food, eating, paying, and leaving while we were still waiting. Again, all we had ordered was four tacos total, plus rice and beans. About 50 minutes after we placed our order, I finally got up to ask our waiter if he could check on our food because it had been such a long wait. If they were too busy (there were a lot of people, but not absurdly so), that's where communication could have gone a long way. Even just stopping by to acknowledge the delay or apologize for the wait would have made the experience feel very different. In the end, it took nearly an hour to get our four tacos from the time we ordered it, and the wait wasn't mentioned by staff at all. The food was okay in the end, but the experience definitely left us disappointed.

I emerged refreshed & renewed, once again a ready to be a contributing member of society.

I've crossed this Narbonne and Lomita intersection thousands of times. I have always told my…read morefriends and family that I would like to try this place out. I was luckily able to bring 2 of my friends with me to try this place out! I came on a Saturday and there was only one other table that was occupied. It was pretty empty which saddened me because once I tried the food I was BLOWN away. The chips and salsa come complimentary as a starter/table finger food. that salsa... oh my. the salsa!!!! I am soooooo PICKY with my salsa. They absolutely nailed this salsa. The flavor, spice level, texture!!! It hit every single mark in my brain and taste buds. If the house salsa is good, then you know the food is also going to smack. The menu looks so appetizing, it was honestly hard to decide what I wanted to eat. I ordered some steak nachos as an appetizer with my friends based on a photo I saw on Yelp. 12/10. beautiful!!! They put a healthy portion of meat on it! Everything was just so spot on. The tortilla chips were all crunchy, no soggy nacho chips here. The sour cream, guac, pico... please order it. The meat was so flavorful, tender and had like no fatty pieces on it. Everyone needs to try it honestly. I ended up going simple and ordered a steak torta with everything on it. The waiter offered a side of jalapenos as well, which I happily accepted. 10/10. I was only able to eat half. I gave the other half to my extremely picky father and he liked it a lot. That's how you know this place is that girl. Can't forget the dessert. I ordered the flan, the waiter convinced us.. he said its home made. Which I would hope! It was a small piece and was flavorful. Creamy, smooth, just melt into your tongue. Also melts into your heart. Not overly sweet. Just the right amount of cajeta on it. 10/10. Horchata was very tasty to me. Right amount of sweetness to it. Service was good. Drinks were always filled, salsa and chip refills were always offered and filled. He took great care of us. They gave us lollipops with the check!! Omg so cute, my heart! Parking is difficult as it is only street parking. Majority of the parking also gets taken by the customers who go to the coffee shop across the street. I am def bookmarking this place to come back. It is so delicious. I plan on bringing my family here next. Me enamore de este restaurante!

Served with lettuce, sour cream, guacamole. I ordered the shredded beef taquitos and they were delicious. Perfectly crunchy and went so well with the salsa, guacamole and sour cream. SHRIMP BURRITO: Shrimp sauteed in salsa de la casa & pico de gallo, rice, beans, and cheese. Served with sour cream and guacamole on the side. The burrito is packed with shrimps and the rice and beans are flavorful. Top it off with some salsa, sour cream, and guacamole and you have yourself a party. Overall, Mezontle is a great spot to come for lunch or dinner. Delicious Mexican food and the service is great. The staff here is very friendly. They have several tables for dine in, but I also feel like they do a lot of to-go orders here. I know they are on a delivery app, but I suggest coming here for yourself to eat. The food is delicious, staff is friendly, and the chips and salsa are endless!

I've been here before and thought it was above average, but this visit exceeded my expectations. My wife wanted a carne asada taco, so I ordered the three-taco plate. Tip: Make sure to specify one taco plate, or you'll end up with three like we did! I went with the carne asada burrito, and it was amazing. The meat was perfectly marinated, tender, and flavorful. The burrito came with rice and beans inside, plus a side of green salsa that was just the right level of spiciness--not too hot, not too mild. The taco plate came with three soft-shell carne asada tacos, rice, and beans, and my wife was very happy with it. They have self-serve kiosks for ordering, though it was down during our visit. Apple Pay tap also wasn't working, so we used a physical card. There's no outdoor seating, but parking is easy to find. Overall, highly recommend this spot--delicious food, generous portions, and no hesitation giving it five stars!

The bakery is tucked into a small strip mall, and while it was buzzing with people inside, I'll admit I felt a bit intimidated approaching--there were two men outside staring, and I wasn't sure if they were customers or just loitering. Once inside though, it was a completely different vibe. The place was busy, with lots of people grabbing pastries, and the energy felt lively and welcoming. The conchas were fresh, soft, and had just the right amount of sweetness--you can tell they're made with care. Prices were very affordable, which made it even better. Even with the crowd, the service moved pretty efficiently. Overall, great pastries and worth the stop--just wish the outside experience felt a bit more comfortable. Next time I'll come earlier to hopefully grab conchas fresh out of the oven, and maybe give the tamales or chilaquiles a try.
