" things are not the same here ! " SORRY TO SAY ! I HAVE BEEN GOING FOR ALMOST 18 YEARS & HAVE ALWAYS loved THE EMPLOYEES ! the food was absolutely delicious years ago. now there are a few things I continue to order , they are not bad , but the ownership has really been " off " the past 2 years or so. problems at home I think ,{ he should leave them at home ! " just my opinion ! the management ( Gloria ) is still there & will always remember your name as always & give you a big smile & how are you, & probably remember what you have all the time , " she/s the best !! " & lupe the cook , I miss the old days busy , friendly & great food ! I USED TO LOVE THE RICE WATER ( horchata ) & lemonaid ??, the container has been empty for 2 years ??? After I posted my opinions , I was asked to leave the restaurant for ever by the owner , he put a slanderish note in the publics eye ,stating I am not allowed in the cafe any more due to some of my actions , Say What ? WOW ! I have been a customer & friend for some 16 + years ?? He posted the note to show to all ? it has been taken down now but I have included photo proof , it was on display for some 2 months or so ?? !!

Every time I order a deep fried bean and cheese burrito with red and green sauce from this place they never get it right. Today was the 5th time this has happened so I called back to let them know. This time instead of the manager who answers a girl answered and I told her my burrito was not deep fried. She said thats because I ordered it that way. So, apparently when I repeated my order 3x to the guy he still got it wrong, so this girl told me I ordered this wrong and that I wont be getting a refund and then she hung up on me. I had my lady call back to see if we could get her name. The owner answered this time and said she was the delivery driver and her name is Whitney. Im pretty sure Im not getting a refund and after this last experience Im never ordering from this place ever again. If you want terrible attitude and your order consistently wrong then this is your place!!!!

We heard about El Molinos Chimichangas through a travel guide, so my wife and I decided to check it out. After speaking with the lady thats worked there, she recommended a chimichanga combo with a drink, beans and rice - that wasnt on the menu. My first experience with a chimichanga was amazing! The crust was crispy and the filling was scrumptious! Wow. Definitely worth it. For some reason, there was no horchata. So I opted for a 50/50 split of Hi-C Fruit Punch and the brewed ice tea. Yum! If you have never tried a chimichanga before, nows the time to do it and this is the place to go!

This was our first time here and it was very good! If you like mexican food with a little "kick" to it you will like El Molino Mexican Cafe. We had the Chile Relleno with Rice and Beans, the Machaca Taco and Red Beef Chimichanga and they were all very fresh and yummy! The portions are big and very filling. The people working there were all very friendly also. Definitely will be going back!

Ordered a carne asada breakfast burrito. They charged me $10 (more than a Chipotle burrito). It took nearly 20 minutes even though I was the only customer at the restaurant. The burrito was small and had more fat and cartilage than actual meat. Terrible experience all around. Many better Mexican spots in very close proximity.

This place is a joke, I ordered a carne asada burrito and they stuffed ground beef in it. Ground beef is not carne asada. Next time Ill order a ground beef burrito maybe Ill get a carne asada burrito. Plus its not authentic Mexican food ! Puke

My husband and I have been eating at El Molino for 10 years and have never once been disappointed. As mentioned in a prior review, the Chimis are particularly tasty! If you have a hankerin for Mexican food, this is a great place to come to!

First time at this restaurant and am very impressed! Not only is the food outstanding, but the owner can be found taking orders and checking on the customers dinning in. Would highly recommend this location for lunch.

This is one of the best places for Mexican food around. They have been in business for decades and they know what they are doing. A+++++++ Cant wait to eat there again! Highly recommend!

Bad, order came missing items, and the sauce they call green sauce made my burrito soggy. Couldnt eat it. I wouldnt give it one star but the description option wouldnt come up if I didnt.

This place is awesome, it has the best tamales in town. Have been going there for years. They know you when you walk in the door. The hot sauce is also outstanding.

Good traditional Mexican style tacos. Not a high-end foodie event. Good chicken taco, great muchaca beef, but fishy tasting fish taco.

This place is not worth the money. Food is bland and not fresh. I will never go there again.
